Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning facility design, and in particular to a cleaning system. Background Technology
[0002] Vacuum cleaners are common cleaning devices widely used in homes, restaurants, hotels, and office buildings. There are many types of vacuum cleaners, and the vacuum cleaner main unit disclosed in CN309281781S is one of them. It usually includes a dust cup and a primary fan. When it is working, it uses the suction power generated by the primary fan to suck external dirt into the dust cup for cleaning.
[0003] However, after cleaning up dirt or when the dust cup accumulates to a certain extent, users often need to manually empty the dust cup, which is cumbersome and can easily result in dirt contaminating the user's hands or clothes during the emptying process, leading to a poor user experience. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cleaning system that can solve one or more of the above-mentioned problems.
[0005] According to one aspect of the present invention, a cleaning system is provided, comprising a vacuum cleaner and a base station. The vacuum cleaner includes a dust cup, which has a dirt-containing cavity and a drain port connected to the dirt-containing cavity. The drain port is provided with a cover plate, which can rotate relative to the dust cup to open or close the drain port. The cover plate is provided with a groove, and the groove is provided with a guide slope. The base station is equipped with a receiving slot, which includes a dirt inlet and a push-pull protrusion. When the dust cup is connected to the receiving groove, the push protrusion can abut against the guide slope to drive the cover plate to rotate and make the dirt inlet connect with the dirt receiving cavity through the drain port.
[0006] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In this utility model, the vacuum cleaner and the base station can be used together. When the user wants to empty the dirt contained in the dirt-holding cavity, the cover can be opened by connecting the vacuum cleaner to the receiving slot of the base station and relying on the cooperation of the push protrusion and the guide slope. This allows the dirt in the dirt-holding cavity to be poured into the drain outlet for collection by the base station for subsequent processing. This cleaning system can effectively empty the dirt from the vacuum cleaner, and the operation is simple, quick, time-saving, and labor-saving. Moreover, it will not contaminate the user's hands or clothes during the dirt emptying process, resulting in an excellent user experience.
[0007] In some embodiments, the dust cup further includes a cover door rotatably mounted on the dust cup to open or close the dirt-containing cavity. A drain outlet and a cover plate are disposed on the cover door, with the cover plate rotatable relative to the cover door to open or close the drain outlet. By providing a cover door, users can manually open the cover door to empty the dirt-containing cavity of the vacuum cleaner when needed without using a base station, thus improving the flexibility of this cleaning system.
[0008] In some embodiments, the vacuum cleaner includes a locking assembly that keeps the door normally closed in the dirt-receiving chamber. The locking assembly prevents the door from being accidentally opened and causing dirt to leak out of the dirt-receiving chamber.
[0009] In some embodiments, the vacuum cleaner includes a reset spring that is configured to allow the cover to normally be in a closed drain port state. The reset spring facilitates automatic reset of the cover to re-close the drain port after the vacuum cleaner has disengaged from the base station's receiving slot.
[0010] In some embodiments, the vacuum cleaner includes a first fan that generates airflow from the dirt receiving cavity to the dirt inlet when the dust cup is connected to the receiving slot. The first fan effectively increases the speed at which dirt moves from the dirt receiving cavity to the dirt inlet.
[0011] In some embodiments, the base station is equipped with a second fan that generates airflow from the dirt collection chamber to the dirt inlet when the dust cup is connected to the receiving slot. The second fan effectively increases the speed at which dirt moves from the dirt collection chamber to the dirt inlet.
[0012] In some embodiments, the vacuum cleaner includes a housing, a drive assembly, a first link and a second link, and the dust cup includes a dust cup body and a scraper. The scraper is movably fitted onto the dust cup body and is connected to the first link. The drive assembly is disposed on the housing and is connected to the second link. The first link and the second link can be connected.
[0013] By setting up a drive component and a scraper on the dust cup, users can easily use the drive component to scrape off the dust and debris adsorbed on the surface of the dust cup body, reducing the amount of dust and debris remaining on the dust cup body.
[0014] In some embodiments, the dust cup is rotatable relative to the housing to separate the first and second links. This separability of the first and second links allows the user to easily remove the dust cup for overall cleaning when needed, offering high flexibility.
[0015] In some embodiments, the first connecting rod has a first protrusion with a first notch, and the second connecting rod has a second protrusion with a second notch. When the first and second connecting rods are connected, the first protrusion engages with the second notch, and the second protrusion engages with the first notch. The dust cup can rotate around its central axis to disengage the first protrusion from the second notch, and simultaneously, the second protrusion disengages from the first notch. The first and second notches serve as connection points when the first and second connecting rods are connected, and also provide positioning. Furthermore, they increase the contact area when the first and second connecting rods are connected, improving the reliability of their connection.
[0016] In some embodiments, the first connecting rod has a first surface, and the second connecting rod has a second surface, with the first and second surfaces abutting each other. The first and second connecting rods are connected by a planar abutment, which is easy to set up and relatively simple to separate. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0026] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] refer to Figures 1-8 The cleaning system of this utility model includes a vacuum cleaner 1 and a base station 2.
[0028] The vacuum cleaner 1 includes a dust cup 11 and a door 12. The dust cup 11 has a dirt-containing cavity 100, which can be used to collect dirt sucked up by the vacuum cleaner 1. The door 12 is rotatably mounted on the dust cup 11. Preferably, one end of the door 12 is mounted on the dust cup 11 through a pivot structure. Under normal conditions, the door 12 can cover the opening of the dirt-containing cavity 100 to close the dirt-containing cavity 100, and the door 12 can be rotated to open the dirt-containing cavity 100.
[0029] Vacuum cleaner 1 may include a locking component, preferably a latch or lock, which connects the door 12 and the dust cup 11. The locking component is mounted on opposite sides of the rotating structure, locking the door 12 to the dust cup 11, so that the door 12 is normally in a closed state for the dirt collection chamber 100. An elastic element, preferably a torsion spring, may also be installed at the rotating structure connecting the door 12 and the dust cup 11. This elastic element is configured to allow the door 12 to quickly open the dirt collection chamber 100 after the locking component is unlocked.
[0030] The door 12 is provided with a drain outlet 200 that communicates with the waste collection cavity 100. A cover plate 10 is provided at the drain outlet 200. One end of the cover plate 10 is installed on the door 12 through a pivot structure. Under normal conditions, the cover plate 10 can cover the drain outlet 200 to close the drain outlet 200, and the cover plate 10 can be rotated to open the drain outlet 200.
[0031] The vacuum cleaner 1 may also include a reset elastic element, preferably a torsion spring, which is installed at the pivot structure connecting the cover plate 10 and the door 12 and is configured to allow the cover plate 10 to be in a state of closing the drain outlet 200 under normal conditions.
[0032] The base station 2 is provided with a receiving slot 21, and a dirt inlet 211 is provided in the receiving slot 21. The base station 2 can be provided with a dirt storage part, such as inside a garbage bag, and the dirt inlet 211 is connected to the dirt storage part.
[0033] The dust cup 11 can be inserted into the receiving groove 21. When the dust cup 11 is inserted into the receiving groove 21, the base station 2 can drive the cover plate 10 to rotate to open the drain port 200. Preferably, the cover plate 10 is provided with a groove 31, the groove 31 is provided with a guide slope 311, and the receiving groove 21 is provided with a push protrusion 212. The shapes of the guide slope 311 and the push protrusion 212 match, so that when the dust cup 11 is connected to the receiving groove 21, the push protrusion 212 can abut against the guide slope 311 to drive the cover plate 10 to rotate.
[0034] As the cover plate 10 rotates, the drain port 200 can be opened, and at this time the dirt inlet 211 can be connected to the dirt receiving cavity 100 through the drain port 200.
[0035] The vacuum cleaner 1 also includes a first fan 13, which normally generates airflow toward the interior of the dirt receiving cavity 100 to suck up external dirt. When the dust cup 11 is connected to the receiving slot 21, the first fan 13 can generate airflow from the dirt receiving cavity 100 to the dirt inlet 211, so that the dirt in the dirt receiving cavity can be blown into the dirt inlet 211.
[0036] The vacuum cleaner 1 also includes a housing 14, a drive assembly 15, a first connecting rod 16, and a second connecting rod 17. The body of the first fan 13 is fixedly mounted on the housing 14 with screws. A fan cover can be fixedly installed around the first fan 13 to hide and protect the fan 13.
[0037] The dust cup 11 includes a dust cup body 111 and a scraper 112. The scraper 112 is linearly movable and sleeved on the dust cup body 111. The scraper 112 is configured to scrape off dust and other dirt from the dust cup body 111 by moving.
[0038] The scraper 112 can also be removed from the dust cup body 111 to facilitate cleaning of dirt left between the scraper 112 and the dust cup body 111.
[0039] The dust cup 11 also includes a cup cover 113. The cup cover 113 is detachably fitted onto the dust cup body 111, and the cup cover 113 can cover the scraper 112 to hide and protect the scraper 112. Preferably, the dust cup body 111 is provided with a slot, and the cup cover 113 is provided with a locking block. The locking block can be locked into the slot, so that the cup cover 113 can be fixed to the dust cup body 111. When needed, the cup cover 113 can be separated from the dust cup body 111 by removing the locking block from the slot, which facilitates the removal of the cup cover 113.
[0040] The scraper 112 is fixedly connected to one end of the first connecting rod 16 by screws, that is, the first connecting rod 16 can move together with the scraper 112.
[0041] The drive assembly 15 is disposed on the housing 14. The drive assembly 15 includes a lever 151 and a guide 152, wherein the guide 152 is fixedly mounted on the housing 14 by screws, and the lever 151 is slidably sleeved on the guide 152, such that the guide 152 is configured to allow the lever 151 to move along the guide 152.
[0042] The lever 151 is fixedly connected to one end of the second link 17 by screws, that is, the second link 17 can move together with the lever 151.
[0043] The first link 16 and the second link 17 can be connected, and there are multiple ways to connect the first link 16 and the second link 17. This embodiment schematically provides two ways to connect the first link 16 and the second link 17.
[0044] Method 1: For example Figure 4 and Figure 5 The first connecting rod 16 has a first protrusion 161 at one end, and a first notch 162 on the first protrusion 161. The second connecting rod 17 has a second protrusion 171 at one end, and a second notch 172 on the second protrusion 171. When the first connecting rod 16 and the second connecting rod 17 are connected, the first protrusion 161 is engaged with the second notch 172, and the second protrusion 171 is engaged with the first notch 162. The dust cup 11 can rotate around its central axis, that is, rotate relative to the first fan 13, so that the first protrusion 41 disengages from the second notch 52, and at the same time, the second protrusion 51 disengages from the first notch 42, thus separating the connection between the first connecting rod 16 and the second connecting rod 17. At this time, the dust cup 11 can be separated from the fan 1.
[0045] Method 2: For example Figure 6 and Figure 7The first connecting rod 16 and the second connecting rod 17 can be connected. Preferably, the other end of the first connecting rod 16 is provided with a first surface 163, and the other end of the second connecting rod 17 is provided with a second surface 173. The first surface 163 and the second surface 173 can abut against each other to connect the first connecting rod 16 and the second connecting rod 17. The dust cup 11 can rotate about its central axis, that is, rotate relative to the first fan 13, so that the first surface 163 and the second surface 173 are separated, that is, the connection between the first connecting rod 4 and the second connecting rod 5 is separated, and at this time the dust cup 2 can be separated from the fan 1.
[0046] When the first link 16 and the second link 17 are connected, the dust cup 11 can be connected to the first fan 13, so that the first fan 13 can suck up dirt into the dirt receiving cavity 100 of the dust cup 11, and the movement of the lever 151 on the drive assembly 15 can drive the scraper 112 to move to scrape off the dirt on the dust cup body 2.
[0047] In addition, a second fan can be installed in the base station 2. When the dust cup 11 is connected to the receiving trough 21, the second fan can generate airflow from the dirt receiving cavity 100 to the dirt inlet 211, so that the dirt in the dirt receiving cavity can be blown into the dirt inlet 211.
[0048] When in use, the vacuum cleaner 1 can suck up external dirt into the dirt receiving cavity 100 and store it. Normally, the reset elastic member can keep the cover 10 in the closed drain port 200 state.
[0049] When there is a lot of dirt in the dirt holding cavity 100, the user can plug the vacuum cleaner 1 into the holding slot 21 of the base station 2. The push protrusion 212 can drive the cover plate 10 to rotate by abutting against the guide slope 311. At this time, the dirt inlet 211 can be connected to the dirt holding cavity 100 through the drain port 200. The dirt in the dirt holding cavity 100 can be input into the dirt storage section of the base station 2 through the dirt inlet 211 to be collected for subsequent processing.
[0050] Furthermore, during the process of dirt being discharged from the dirt receiving cavity 100, the first fan 13 or the second fan can generate airflow from the dirt receiving cavity 100 to the dirt inlet 211 to increase the speed of dirt movement.
[0051] On the other hand, when the vacuum cleaner 1 is not connected to the receiving slot 21, the user can also move the lever 151 so that the movement of the lever 151 can be connected to the first link 16 and the second link 17 so that the scraper 112 can move accordingly. The scraper 112 can move on the dust cup body 111 to wipe away the dirt attached to the dust cup body 111. This dirt can also be output to the dirt storage section of the base station 2 through the drain port 200.
[0052] Alternatively, users can unlock the locking component to release the door 12 from the dust cup 11. Under the action of the elastic element, the door 12 can rotate to open the dirt containing cavity 100. At this time, the dirt in the dirt containing cavity 100 can be emptied without connecting to the base station 2.
[0053] Furthermore, when cleaning of the dust cup 11 is required, the dust cup 11 can be rotated around its central axis, causing the first connecting rod 16 and the second connecting rod 17 to separate, thereby separating the dust cup 11 from the first fan 13. At this point, the dust cup 11 can be removed and cleaned separately. Moreover, during the cleaning process of the dust cup 11, the cup cover 113 can be removed from the dust cup body 111 for cleaning as needed, and even the scraper 112 can be removed from the dust cup body 111 for cleaning, providing high flexibility and ensuring thorough cleaning of the dust cup 11.
[0054] The above descriptions are merely some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of this utility model, and all such modifications and improvements fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
