Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cleaning folding full-length mirrors, specifically a cleaning mechanism for folding full-length mirrors. Background Technology

[0002] A mirror is an object with a smooth surface that reflects light. A mirror is a smooth object made of glass with a reflective substance such as mercury on the back, which can reflect light to form an image. Mirrors are divided into two categories: plane mirrors and curved mirrors. Plane mirrors are often used to groom oneself, while curved mirrors are further divided into concave mirrors and convex mirrors, and are mainly used as dressing mirrors, furniture accessories, architectural decorations, etc.

[0003] Among them, a full-length mirror is a flat dressing mirror. These mirrors are mainly made of glass magnifying mirrors, with frames made of materials such as metal, plastic and cardboard, decorated with carving, printing and inlay techniques, and supported by lifting and folding mechanisms, resulting in a wide variety of colors and patterns.

[0004] Before the various components of a folding full-length mirror are assembled into the final product, these components may need to be cleaned to remove grease, sweat, or other contaminants that may have accumulated during manufacturing. Most cleaning of folding full-length mirrors involves manually wiping the mirror surface with a soft cloth or sponge dampened with cleaning solution. However, this method has the following drawbacks: gaps exist between the frame and the mirror, where grease, sweat, or other contaminants can accumulate, and the narrow spaces in these gaps make cleaning very tedious. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cleaning mechanism for a folding full-length mirror, in order to solve the problem that there are gaps between the mirror frame and the mirror, in which grease, sweat or other contaminants can remain, and the gaps are small and very cumbersome to clean.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned utility model objectives, the present utility model adopts the following technical solution: a cleaning mechanism for a folding full-length mirror, comprising a base, a rotating barrel rotatably disposed on the top surface of the base, the body of the folding full-length mirror disposed inside the rotating barrel, a rotating hole being opened on the top surface of the base, a drive motor being fixed inside the rotating hole, the output end of the drive motor passing through the rotating hole and fixed to the bottom surface of the rotating barrel, a sealing cover being provided on the top surface of the rotating barrel, a fixing annular groove being opened on the top surface of the base, the fixing annular groove corresponding to the bottom surface of the rotating barrel, a thrust bearing being disposed inside the fixing annular groove, and the top surface of the thrust bearing contacting the top surface of the rotating barrel.

[0007] Preferably, a support rod is fixed to the inner wall of the folding full-length mirror body. The top surface of the support rod has two inclined surfaces. The folding part of the folding full-length mirror body fits into the two inclined surfaces of the support rod. Several shaping plates are fixed to the bottom surface of the support rod. The shaping plates have the same inclination angle as the folding full-length mirror body.

[0008] Preferably, the top surface of the sealing cover has two telescopic holes, and two electric push rods are fixed to the top surface of the sealing cover. The telescopic ends of the electric push rods extend through the telescopic holes into the interior of the rotating barrel. A pressure block is fixed to the telescopic end of the electric push rod, and a sponge is fixed to the bottom surface of the pressure block.

[0009] Preferably, the top surface of the pressure block has two mounting holes, and a pressure sensor is fixed inside the mounting holes. The detection end of the pressure sensor extends into the sponge. A PLC controller is provided on the sealing cover, and the electric push rod and the pressure sensor are both electrically connected to the PLC controller.

[0010] Preferably, a rubber pad is fixed to one side of the shaping plate, and a plurality of anti-slip blocks are fixed in an array on the rubber pad.

[0011] Preferably, a connecting block is fixed to the outer wall of the sealing cover, and a hydraulic cylinder is fixed to the top surface of the base. One side of the connecting block is detachably connected to the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the cleaning mechanism of a folding full-length mirror that adopts the above technical solution has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. The staff unfolds the folding full-length mirror. At this time, the staff can place the folding full-length mirror on the support rod. With the support of the support rod and the shaping plate, the folding full-length mirror will always be in the unfolded state inside the rotating barrel. At this time, the staff fills the rotating barrel with cleaning fluid and closes the sealing cap on the rotating barrel.

[0014] During cleaning, staff activate the drive motor, which rotates the rotating drum. The centrifugal force generated by this rotation forces the cleaning solution inside the drum deep into the gaps between the frame and the mirror of the folding full-length mirror, effectively removing grease, sweat, and other contaminants for a more thorough cleaning. This rotation also helps the cleaning solution reach every corner of the mirror, ensuring even cleaning.

[0015] 2. Before use, the operator starts the hydraulic cylinder. The telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder moves downward, driving the connecting block and the sealing cover downward together until the sealing cover and the rotating barrel are completely closed. The operator then stops closing the hydraulic cylinder. At this point, the operator separates the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder from the connecting block using the quick-release mechanism, and seals the opening of the rotating barrel with the sealing cover to ensure that the cleaning fluid does not overflow during rotation. The operator can then start the electric push rod via the PLC controller. The telescopic end of the electric push rod moves downward, driving the pressure block and sponge downward. The pressure sensor detects the deformation of the sponge, indicating that the sponge is in contact with the surface of the folding full-length mirror. The pressure sensor transmits a stop signal to the PLC controller, which then issues a stop signal. The electric push rod stops moving downward, and the pressure block presses down on the surface of the folding full-length mirror to ensure that the mirror does not shift during rotation, improving its stability. The sponge protects the surface of the mirror, ensuring that the downward pressure of the pressure block will not damage the mirror, making the overall device more intelligent.

[0021] The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figures 1-3As shown, a cleaning mechanism for a folding full-length mirror includes a base 1. A rotating drum 2 is rotatably mounted on the top surface of the base 1. The folding full-length mirror body 3 is disposed inside the rotating drum 2. A rotating hole 4 is formed on the top surface of the base 1. A drive motor 5 is fixed inside the rotating hole 4. The output end of the drive motor 5 passes through the rotating hole 4 and is fixed to the bottom surface of the rotating drum 2. A sealing cover 6 is provided on the top surface of the rotating drum 2. A fixing annular groove 7 is formed on the top surface of the base 1, and the fixing annular groove 7 corresponds to the bottom surface of the rotating drum 2. The interior of the folding full-length mirror body 3 is equipped with a thrust bearing 8, the top surface of which contacts the top surface of the rotating barrel 2. A support rod 9 is fixed to the inner wall of the folding full-length mirror body 3. The top surface of the support rod 9 has two inclined surfaces. The folding part of the folding full-length mirror body 3 fits against the two inclined surfaces of the support rod 9. Several shaping plates 10 are fixed to the bottom surface of the support rod 9. The shaping plates 10 have the same inclination angle as the folding full-length mirror body 3. A rubber pad 17 is fixed to one side of the shaping plate 10. Several anti-slip blocks 18 are fixed in an array on the rubber pad 17.

[0023] During use, the staff unfolds the folding full-length mirror body 3. At this time, the staff can place the folding full-length mirror body 3 on the support rod 9. With the support of the support rod 9 and the shaping plate 10, the folding full-length mirror body 3 will always be in the unfolded state inside the rotating barrel 2. At this time, the staff fills the rotating barrel 2 with cleaning fluid and closes the sealing cap 6 on the rotating barrel 2.

[0024] During cleaning, the staff starts the drive motor 5. The rotating shaft of the drive motor 5 drives the rotating drum 2 to rotate. At this time, the cleaning fluid inside the rotating drum 2 is forced by the centrifugal force generated by the rotation to penetrate into the gaps between the frame and the mirror of the folding full-length mirror body 3, thereby cleaning the grease, sweat, or other contaminants in the gaps and achieving a better cleaning effect. This rotation helps the cleaning fluid cover every corner of the folding full-length mirror body 3, achieving a uniform cleaning effect.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the top surface of the sealing cover 6 has two telescopic holes 11. Two electric push rods 14 are fixed to the top surface of the sealing cover 6. The telescopic ends of the electric push rods 14 extend through the telescopic holes 11 into the interior of the rotating barrel 2. A pressure block 12 is fixed to the telescopic end of the electric push rod 14. A sponge 13 is fixed to the bottom surface of the pressure block 12. Two mounting holes 15 are opened on the top surface of the pressure block 12. A pressure sensor 16 is fixed inside the mounting holes 15. The detection end of the pressure sensor 16 extends into the sponge 13. A PLC controller is installed on the sealing cover 6. The electric push rods 14 and the pressure sensors 16 are both electrically connected to the PLC controller. A connecting block 19 is fixed to the outer wall, and a hydraulic cylinder 20 is fixed to the top surface of the base 1. The bottom surface of the connecting block 19 is detachably connected to the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 20. The telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 20 is provided with a quick release mechanism, which can be docked and fixed with the bottom surface of the connecting block 19 and then separated. The quick release mechanism includes: a locking mechanism: a mechanism for locking or unlocking mechanical parts, usually a mechanical structure composed of springs, ratchet, gears, etc.; a driving device: a device for providing power and energy, usually an electric motor, hydraulic system or other types of power source; and a sensor: a sensor for detecting the position and state of mechanical parts, such as a photoelectric sensor, pressure detector, etc.

[0026] Before use, the operator starts the hydraulic cylinder 20. The telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 20 moves downward and drives the connecting block 19 and the sealing cover 6 to move downward together until the sealing cover 6 and the rotating barrel 2 are completely closed. Then the operator stops and closes the hydraulic cylinder 20. At this time, the operator separates the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 20 from the connecting block 19 through the quick release mechanism, and closes and seals the opening of the rotating barrel 2 through the sealing cover 6 to ensure that the cleaning fluid will not overflow during the rotation of the rotating barrel 2. At this time, the operator can start the electric push rod 14 through the PLC controller. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 14 moves downward, driving the pressure block 12 and the sponge 13 to move downward. At this time, the detection end of the pressure sensor 16 will detect the deformation of the sponge 13, indicating that the sponge 13 is in contact with the surface of the folding full-length mirror body 3. At this time, the pressure sensor 16 will transmit a stop signal to the PLC controller. The PLC controller will then issue a stop signal, and the electric push rod 14 will stop moving downward. The pressure block 12 presses down on the surface of the folding full-length mirror body 3 to ensure that the folding full-length mirror body 3 will not shift during rotation, thus improving the stability of the folding full-length mirror body 3. The sponge 13 protects the surface of the folding full-length mirror body 3, ensuring that the downward pressure of the pressure block 12 will not damage the folding full-length mirror body 3, making the overall device more intelligent.

[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
