[0048] Please see Figure 1-7 This utility model provides a technical solution: a water-absorbing accessory device for a vacuum cleaner, comprising:

[0049] The water-absorbing attachment 18 is connected to the vacuum cleaner 1 or the electric mite-removing brush 19. The water-absorbing attachment 18 is driven by its internal power supply or by the power supply of the vacuum cleaner 1 or the electric mite-removing brush. The water-absorbing attachment 18 is equipped with a drive motor and a first turbine.

[0050] The motor 2 is located inside the vacuum cleaner 1. A connecting shaft 3 is provided at the bottom of the motor 2. The bottom of the connecting shaft 3 passes through the vacuum shell 4, turbine 5, guide plate 6, and fan blade 7 in sequence and is connected to the first shaft seal. The turbine 5 and the guide plate 6 are located inside the vacuum shell 4. The filter screen 8 is connected to the bottom of the vacuum shell 4, and the fan blade 7 is located at the top of the filter screen 8. The connecting shell 9 is sleeved on the outside of the filter screen 8. The water storage chamber 10 is located at the bottom of the connecting shell 9, and a backflow prevention plate 15 is provided on the inner wall of the vacuum cleaner body.

[0051] The water-absorbing attachment 18 is electrically coupled to the motor of the vacuum cleaner 1 or the electric mite-removing brush 19 via an electrical connector, and the drive motor inside the attachment is driven by the vacuum cleaner or the electric mite-removing brush motor.

[0052] The motor is provided with a protective shell 11 on its two sides.

[0053] The vacuum cleaner 1 is provided with an air inlet 12, which is located on one side of the filter screen 8.

[0054] The bottom of the filter screen 8 is connected to the dust collection shell 13, which is located inside the connecting shell 9. When water first enters, some water enters between the vacuum cleaner and the vacuum shell, falling into the water storage chamber along the inclined plate. Some water, along with the dust, enters the connecting shell, which has several spiral holes, through the filter screen. The connecting shell rotates via the connecting shaft, causing the water to be thrown out by centrifugal force and re-enter between the vacuum cleaner and the vacuum shell, thus collecting the wastewater. The separated dust enters the dust collection shell through the filter screen, thereby completing the separation of wastewater and dust.

[0055] The bottom of the connecting shell 9 is provided with an inclined plate 14, which extends above the backflow prevention plate 15.

[0056] The vacuum cleaner body has a snap-fit ​​body 16 on its inner wall, and a snap-fit ​​groove 17 on its anti-backflow plate 15. The snap-fit ​​groove 17 and the snap-fit ​​body 16 are matched with each other, which facilitates the disassembly of the anti-backflow plate.

[0057] The backflow prevention plate 15 has an inclined cross-section to guide the water flow.

[0058] The suction pipe is connected to the air inlet 12, and the water suction accessory 18 is connected to the suction pipe.

[0059] The connecting shaft 3 is sealed to the vacuum housing 4 via a bearing to prevent moisture from damaging the motor.

[0060] Example 2

[0061] Please see Figure 8 The electric mite removal brush 19 is provided with a connector 20, and the water-absorbing accessory 18 is connected to the connector 20. The electric mite removal brush 19 is provided with a water passage 21, a rotating turbine 22, a centrifugal shroud 23 and a storage chamber 24. The rotating turbine 22 is connected to the motor of the electric mite removal brush 19. The centrifugal shroud 23 is located on the outer periphery of the rotating turbine 22. The storage chamber 24 is located below the centrifugal shroud 23. The storage chamber 24 and the dust chamber 25 are isolated from each other.

[0062] Connect the electric mite-removing brush to the water-absorbing attachment. The wastewater sucked out by the attachment enters the centrifuge chamber through the water channel. A protective shell is installed outside the motor to isolate the wastewater channel from the motor. The wastewater is thrown out of the centrifuge chamber and stored in the storage chamber after being rotated by the rotating turbine. The storage chamber and the dust chamber are isolated from each other and collected separately. The dust chamber has a baffle extending upwards with air holes. This isolates the wastewater while still allowing negative pressure to be formed in the dust chamber to collect dust mites.

[0063] The motor shaft inside the electric mite removal brush is also connected by bearings to achieve dynamic sealing. The bearing seal isolates the storage cavity from the motor vacuum cavity, thus preventing moisture from entering.

[0064] Working principle: By connecting the water-absorbing attachment to a vacuum cleaner or electric mite-removal brush, the water-absorbing attachment, which includes a drive motor and a first turbine, is powered by its own internal battery or by the motor of the vacuum cleaner or electric mite-removal brush. The drive motor of the water-absorbing attachment drives the first turbine to rotate, generating negative pressure to suck the wastewater into the vacuum cleaner or electric mite-removal brush. By setting the turbine at the bottom of the vacuum cleaner motor, the turbine, guide plate and fan blades work together so that when the motor drives the turbine to rotate, it also drives the fan blades to rotate, and works with the guide plate to balance the airflow and increase suction. The turbine generates centrifugal force, which throws the water away from the connecting shell, and the water is stored in the water storage chamber by the inclined plate at the bottom.

[0065] 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.
