Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of automotive seat cover cleaning equipment, specifically relating to an automotive seat cover surface cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] As an important decorative and protective component of a car's interior, the appearance quality of car seat covers directly affects the overall interior look and feel and user experience. During the production, transportation, and installation of car seat covers, dust, fibrous debris, and other impurities often adhere to their surfaces. If not cleaned promptly, this not only affects their aesthetics but may also lead to defects in subsequent processes (such as packaging and installation). Therefore, the surface of the seat covers must be thoroughly cleaned before they enter the assembly stage.

[0003] Currently, the cleaning of car seat covers mainly relies on manual handheld vacuum cleaners and cleaning brushes, or on fixed cleaning equipment for surface dust removal. These methods generally have the following drawbacks: Firstly, manual cleaning is inefficient, labor-intensive, and prone to incomplete cleaning and missed areas. Secondly, existing fixed cleaning equipment often cannot automatically adjust to the specific shape of the seat cover, resulting in limited cleaning coverage and difficulty in achieving continuous and efficient cleaning of both sides. Furthermore, if the large amount of dust generated during the cleaning process is not collected effectively and promptly, it can easily cause secondary pollution of the working environment. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a car seat cover surface cleaning device that can automatically cover and clean both sides of the seat cover and has a simultaneous dust suction function, so as to improve cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect, and reduce manual operation and environmental pollution.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A car seat cover surface cleaning device includes a robotic arm, a rotating disk on one side of the robotic arm, and a car seat model fixed on the rotating disk. It also includes a motor fixed to the end of the robotic arm, and a cleaning mechanism is fixed to one end of the output shaft of the motor. The motor drives the cleaning mechanism to rotate to perform the cleaning action.

[0007] A suction seat is fixed at the end of the motor away from the output shaft. The suction seat is open at the end facing the cleaning mechanism and performs suction work. A filter plate is installed at the port of the suction seat and is fitted on the outside of the motor.

[0008] The left end of the suction base is fitted with a housing, and the left end of the housing is fitted with a dust hood. The left port of the dust hood is fitted onto the outside of the cleaning mechanism. The housing can collect and discharge the dust and impurities filtered by the filter plate.

[0009] Furthermore, a stepped groove for installing the filter plate is provided on the inner side of the left port of the suction seat, and a collar that fits around the outside of the motor is fixed in the center of the filter plate.

[0010] Furthermore, a limit block is fixed on the upper side of the suction base, and locking grooves are provided on both the front and rear sides of the suction base. Several evenly distributed fans are fixed on the right side of the suction base.

[0011] Furthermore, a slot is provided on the upper side of the casing near the right end, and locking screws are threaded on both the front and rear sides of the casing. A waste discharge pipe is fixed on the lower side of the casing, and a collection box is fitted onto the lower end of the waste discharge pipe.

[0012] Furthermore, the cleaning mechanism includes a bristle assembly and a mounting base, the bristle assembly being detachably mounted on the mounting base, which is connected to the output shaft of the motor.

[0013] Furthermore, the bristle assembly includes a fixing plate, on the left side of which bristles are evenly distributed, and the outer edge of the fixing plate is provided with several positioning grooves.

[0014] Furthermore, several positioning blocks are fixed inside the left port of the fixed base, and an annular baffle is provided on the edge of the left port of the fixed base. A connecting sleeve is fixed on the right side of the fixed base, and a fixing screw that is screwed onto the output shaft of the motor is inserted through the outside of the connecting sleeve.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] This invention, through the coordinated structure of a robotic arm, motor, and brush assembly, enables the brush to cover the entire outer surface of the seat cover while rotating. The movement of the robotic arm allows for precise control of the cleaning area, solving the problems of incomplete cleaning and limited cleaning range in existing cleaning devices. At the same time, the seat model is mounted on a rotatable turntable, and by controlling the rotation angle, multi-faceted cleaning of the seat cover can be achieved, avoiding repeated manual flipping and improving cleaning efficiency and automation.

[0017] By incorporating a suction base, casing, dust hood, and filter plate, the system simultaneously absorbs and centrally processes dust and fiber debris during the brush rotation cleaning process. This avoids the problems of dust flying or accumulating in traditional cleaning methods, improving cleaning efficiency and the hygiene of the working environment. The suction system provides stable suction through a fan, and after the filter plate blocks large particles of impurities, they slide down through the casing to the waste discharge pipe and are collected in the collection box. This ensures the closed and efficient dust collection throughout the cleaning process, solving the technical problems of residual impurities and inconvenient collection.

[0018] The bristle assembly features a detachable design with uniform bristle density that is compatible with different fabric materials. Combined with the positioning structure and multi-point locking mechanism on the fixed base, it ensures stable operation of the cleaning mechanism during high-speed operation, preventing deviation or loosening. This avoids the problems of high wear and tear and inconvenient replacement that occur with traditional bristle equipment during long-term use, thus improving the stability and adaptability of the equipment.

[0028] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.

[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a car seat cover surface cleaning device includes a robotic arm 1, a rotating disk on one side of the robotic arm 1, and a car seat model fixed on the rotating disk. It also includes a motor 6 fixed to the end of the robotic arm 1. A cleaning mechanism 4 is fixed to one end of the output shaft of the motor 6. The motor 6 drives the cleaning mechanism 4 to rotate to perform the cleaning action.

[0030] The robotic arm 1 drives the cleaning mechanism 4 to reciprocate along the surface of the car seat model to achieve full-coverage cleaning; the rotating disk is used to rotate the car seat model, so that the cleaning mechanism 4 can clean multiple sides of the car seat cover in sequence; the motor 6 provides continuous torque to the cleaning mechanism 4 through its output shaft, so that the brush assembly 41 on the cleaning mechanism 4 rotates continuously at high speed to perform dust removal and brushing; the motor 6 is installed at the end of the robotic arm 1 to ensure that the overall structure of the cleaning device is compact and easy to control; the cleaning mechanism 4 is axially connected to the motor 6 to achieve synchronous rotation and improve cleaning efficiency; the overall structural design aims to solve the problems of low efficiency and uneven coverage of manual cleaning in the prior art.

[0031] A suction seat 7 is fixed at the end of the motor 6 away from the output shaft. The suction seat 7 is open at the end facing the cleaning mechanism 4 and performs suction work. A filter plate 5 is installed at the port of the suction seat 7 and is sleeved on the outside of the motor 6.

[0032] As the main component of the vacuum system, the suction seat 7 has its suction inlet facing the cleaning mechanism 4, which can simultaneously suck up the dust and impurities that fall off during the cleaning process of the brush assembly 41. The suction seat 7 uses the negative pressure area formed inside to suck up the micro dust and fiber debris in the cleaning area to the area where the filter plate 5 is located for preliminary blocking and filtration. The filter plate 5 is fixed to the outside of the motor 6 in a set form and is stably installed through the central collar 51. It can effectively intercept large particles of impurities and prevent them from entering the fan system and causing blockage or damage. This structure fits tightly and helps to solve the problems of dust falling back and not being collected in time in traditional dust removal methods.

[0033] The left end of the suction base 7 is fitted with a housing 2, and the left end of the housing 2 is fitted with a dust hood 3. The left port of the dust hood 3 is fitted onto the outside of the cleaning mechanism 4. The housing 2 can collect and discharge the dust and impurities filtered by the filter plate 5.

[0034] The housing 2 serves as a transfer channel for the suction system. Its inner cavity is used to accommodate the residual dust filtered by the filter plate 5 and guide it downwards for discharge. The dust hood 3 is located on the outside of the cleaning mechanism 4, forming a partially enclosed space to prevent dust leakage. The dust hood 3 and the housing 2 are connected by a seal to form a negative pressure dust suction chamber, achieving a synergistic effect between the cleaning and dust suction processes. The housing 2 has a sliding structure inside, which allows the micro-dust blocked by the filter plate 5 to naturally settle to the lower area under gravity and be guided to the collection box 24 for centralized storage through the discharge pipe 23, thereby solving the problems of impurity collection dispersion and secondary environmental pollution in existing cleaning devices.

[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, a stepped groove 74 for installing the filter plate 5 is provided on the inner side of the left port of the suction seat 7, and a collar 51 that is sleeved on the outside of the motor 6 is fixed in the center of the filter plate 5.

[0036] The stepped groove 74 is used to embed and fix the filter plate 5, preventing the filter plate from loosening or shifting due to airflow disturbance during cleaning operations; the collar 51 set in the center of the filter plate 5 covers the outer circle of the motor 6 to form a stable support connection, further enhancing the structural positioning accuracy of the filter plate 5; this structural design optimizes the convenience of filter plate replacement and disassembly, while improving the system's sealing and safety, helping to maintain a stable and unobstructed air intake channel and avoid dust backflow problems.

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, a limit block 71 is fixed on the upper side of the suction seat 7, and locking grooves 72 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the suction seat 7. Several evenly distributed fans 73 are fixed on the right side of the suction seat 7.

[0038] The limiting block 71 is used to limit the filter plate 5 in the vertical direction to prevent it from sliding up and down during high-load suction operation; the locking groove 72 is used to cooperate with the external locking mechanism for quick disassembly and assembly, which helps to quickly replace the suction components during maintenance; the fan 73 is evenly distributed on the right side of the suction base 7 and rotates by power supply to form a stable negative pressure suction flow to ensure efficient dust collection during the cleaning process; the multi-point distributed fan structure of this suction system effectively solves the problems of insufficient suction power and high dust leakage rate of existing dust collection devices.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, a slot 21 is provided on the upper side of the casing 2 near the right end, and locking screws 22 are threaded on both the front and rear sides of the casing 2. A discharge pipe 23 is fixed on the lower side of the casing 2, and a collection box 24 is fitted on the lower end of the discharge pipe 23.

[0040] The slot 21 is used for quick snap-fit ​​installation between the suction base 7 and the housing 2, ensuring structural stability and facilitating assembly and disassembly; the locking screw 22 is installed through both the front and rear sides, and by screwing, it can achieve double-sided limiting and reinforcement of the suction base 7, preventing the connection from loosening due to vibration or high wind speed during cleaning; the dust discharge pipe 23 is set at the lowest point of the housing 2, and with the help of gravity, the dust will automatically slide down and be discharged in a concentrated manner, avoiding secondary blockage caused by internal accumulation; the collection box 24 is set at the end of the dust discharge pipe 23 and is installed in a nested manner, which can be easily removed and the dust dumped after the cleaning operation; this dust discharge structure solves the problems of inconvenient dust removal and easy spillage in traditional equipment.

[0041] like Figure 5 As shown, the cleaning mechanism 4 includes a bristle assembly 41 and a fixed base 42. The bristle assembly 41 is detachably mounted on the fixed base 42, and the fixed base 42 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 6.

[0042] The bristle assembly 41 is detachably connected to the fixing seat 42 via a positioning structure, making it easy to replace bristles of different specifications or hardness according to the material of the seat cover and cleaning needs. The fixing seat 42 is a cylindrical structure, with one end nested on the output shaft of the motor 6 and tightened and fixed by the connecting sleeve 423 and the fixing screw 424 to ensure that it does not fall off when the motor rotates at high speed. The entire cleaning mechanism 4 rotates and brushes under the drive of the motor 6, and combines with the suction system to remove dust simultaneously, achieving efficient and automated cleaning of the seat cover, effectively overcoming the problems of incomplete cleaning coverage and impurity residue in the prior art.

[0043] like Figure 6 As shown, the bristle assembly 41 includes a fixing plate 412, on the left side of the fixing plate 412 are uniformly distributed bristles 411, and the outer edge of the fixing plate 412 is provided with a number of positioning grooves 413.

[0044] The fixing plate 412 has a disc-shaped structure with multiple clusters of high-density bristles 411 evenly arranged on its left side. The bristles 411 can be made of nylon or flexible fiber material to adapt to the cleaning requirements of different seat cover surfaces. The positioning grooves 413 are evenly spaced along the edge of the fixing plate 412 and are used to cooperate with the positioning blocks 422 on the fixing seat 42 to achieve precise installation and limiting, preventing the bristle assembly from shifting or slipping during high-speed rotation. This structural design effectively improves the stability and cleaning coverage of the bristles during rotation.

[0045] like Figure 7 As shown, several positioning blocks 422 are fixed inside the left port of the fixed base 42, and an annular baffle 421 is provided on the edge of the left port of the fixed base 42. The baffle 421 is used to limit and block the fixed plate 412 when it is installed in the fixed base 42. A connecting sleeve 423 is fixed on the right side of the fixed base 42, and a fixing screw 424 screwed on the output shaft of the motor 6 is inserted through the outside of the connecting sleeve 423.

[0046] The positioning block 422 and the positioning groove 413 of the fixing plate 412 are matched one-to-one to ensure that the bristle assembly 41 is accurately positioned during installation. The annular baffle 421 serves as a fixed limiting structure to prevent the fixing plate 412 from axial displacement during rotation. The connecting sleeve 423 is a hollow collar structure used to reliably connect the fixing seat 42 to the output shaft of the motor 6. The fixing screw 424 passes through the connecting sleeve 423 and is screwed into the threaded hole of the output shaft of the motor 6 to achieve overall fastening of the fixing seat 42 and improve the structural reliability and safety of the cleaning mechanism during operation. This multi-positioning and fixing combination structure effectively avoids loosening, vibration and other defects of the bristle assembly during high-speed rotation.

[0047] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When cleaning dust and impurities from the surface of a car seat cover, the car seat cover is placed on the corresponding seat model. The motor 6 is started to drive the fixed base 42 to rotate, thereby driving the brush assembly 41 to rotate. At this time, the robotic arm 1 starts to move, driving the brush 411 on the brush assembly 41 to press against the car seat cover. Then, the robotic arm 1 drives the brush 411 to move on one side of the car seat cover. The rotating brush 411 completes the cleaning of one side of the car seat cover. After the cleaning of one side of the car seat cover is completed, the rotating disk is controlled to drive the seat cover to rotate 180º. At this time, the other side of the car seat cover can be cleaned, thereby completing the fully automated cleaning of the surface of the car seat cover.

[0048] When cleaning the car seat cover, the suction seat 7 continuously sucks air under the drive of the fan 73. The suction seat 7 sucks away the dust and impurities that fall off during cleaning through the cover 2 and the dust hood 3, and filters and blocks them under the action of the filter plate 5. The dust and impurities filtered and blocked by the filter plate 5 will be concentrated at the bottom of the cover 2 and discharged into the collection box 24 through the discharge pipe 23. The collection box 24 can be removed for cleaning.

[0049] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the field.
