Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cleaning product structure technology, specifically referring to a multi-functional broom that integrates sweeping and scraping. Background Technology

[0002] Brooms are the most common household cleaning tools in homes and workplaces. The invention of the broom is a great innovation in human history, playing a crucial role in human health and household cleanliness. Modern brooms are at least divided into ordinary brooms made of bristles and magic brooms made of scrapers. Both types are essential cleaning products in modern homes, and many households have both.

[0003] For convenience and practicality, multi-functional brooms have emerged on the market, combining broom bristles and a scraper. For example, Chinese patent CN202420130430.4 describes a multi-functional broom including a broom handle. One end of the handle is fixedly connected to a locking block. A first locking groove is formed on one side of the locking block, and a second locking groove is formed on the other side. A first connecting plate is locked inside the first locking groove. A scraper is fixedly connected to one side of the first connecting plate. A first scraper head, a second scraper head, and a third scraper head are sequentially fixedly connected to one side of the scraper head from front to back. A second connecting plate is locked inside the second locking groove. When using this broom, the bristles are used to sweep away dust and debris from the ground. When dirt adheres to the ground or there is water on the ground, the first, second, and third scraper heads are moved to scrape away the water and dirt. Both scraper heads are used simultaneously to scrape away water and dirt. This product offers a multi-functional broom, but it has some shortcomings: when both the first and second connecting plates are mounted on the snap-fit ​​block, the product is in multi-functional cleaning mode; however, in this mode, the broom bristles and scraper are tilted, with the handle located in the gap between them, limiting the handle's freedom of movement; moreover, the handle, broom head, and scraper remain tilted at all times, forcing the user to grip only the tilted handle, resulting in a poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multifunctional broom.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows:

[0006] A multi-functional sweeping and scraping broom includes a broom body with a handle on the broom body; broom bristles and scraping strips are respectively provided on both sides of the broom body, and a hinge seat is provided on the side of the broom body, which is connected to the handle.

[0007] The hinge seat is provided with a locking element, which can keep the broom bristles on the side away from the handle or keep the scraper on the side away from the handle.

[0008] When cleaning with broom bristles or scraper, the handle and hinge are located on the side of the broom body.

[0009] Furthermore, the locking element is a pivot between the hinge seat and the broom body. The pivot can move laterally, and by moving the pivot, the pivot can lock the hinge seat and the broom body.

[0010] Furthermore, the broom body is provided with a connecting seat, which has a mounting hole for connecting a locking member; the hinge seat has a limiting hole for connecting a locking member in the middle; the locking member passes through the mounting hole and the limiting hole; both the mounting hole and the limiting hole are provided with at least two limiting grooves, and the locking member is provided with a protrusion; when the locking member is pushed to move, the protrusion of the locking member simultaneously engages with the limiting grooves of the mounting hole and the limiting hole, thus locking the hinge position of the hinge seat and the broom body; when the locking member is pushed to move, the protrusion of the locking member engages with the limiting groove of the mounting hole or the limiting groove of the limiting hole, allowing the hinge seat and the broom body to rotate relative to each other.

[0011] Furthermore, the mounting holes and limiting holes are evenly arranged with the same number of limiting grooves; the protrusions of the locking member simultaneously engage with different limiting grooves of the mounting holes and limiting holes, so that the broom body can remain vertical or inclined with the handle.

[0012] Furthermore, the locking components include a left locking component and a right locking component that are fixed to each other. The left locking component has an inner cavity, and the right locking component is fixed in the inner cavity. The outer surface of the left locking component serves as a rotating abutment surface between the hinge seat and the broom body.

[0013] Furthermore, the right locking element and the left locking element are different colors; or, the ends of the right locking element and the left locking element are different colors.

[0014] Furthermore, the right locking element and the left locking element are locked together by a snap-fit ​​mechanism.

[0015] Furthermore, the right locking member and the left locking member are provided with stepped portions, which restrict the right locking member and the left locking member from disengaging from the hinged position.

[0016] Furthermore, the scraper blade is longer than the main body of the broom.

[0017] Furthermore, the broom body includes a first body and a second body, with the scraper clamped in a cavity formed between the first body and the second body.

[0018] The outstanding and beneficial technical effects of this utility model compared to the prior art are:

[0019] 1. This utility model features bristles and a scraper on both sides of the broom body. Users can select either bristles or scraper for cleaning using a locking mechanism: rotate the broom body to the desired position, and then lock the hinge position of the broom body using the locking mechanism. Specifically, the hinge is located on the side of the broom body, meaning the handle is located on the side plate of the broom body. Pushing the broom body from the side allows for movement without interfering with the user's cleaning. Preferably, the handle and broom body can maintain various states, such as parallel, perpendicular, or inclined.

[0020] 2. The locking component of this utility model serves as both a locking part between the hinge seat and the broom body, and a pivot between the two. Utilizing the pivot as a locking component simplifies the product structure and facilitates worker assembly. During installation, the left locking component is passed sequentially through the mounting hole of the connecting seat and the limiting hole of the hinge seat, and then the right locking component is fixed together with the left locking component.

[0021] 3. The right locking component and the left locking component of this utility model are different colors; or, the ends of the right locking component and the left locking component are different colors. By distinguishing them by color, users can better observe and know the actual locking status. For example, if the end of the right locking component is set to red, the end of the right locking component is exposed in the locked state. If the user sees the red exposed end, it means that the hinge seat and the broom body cannot rotate. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0034] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Figure 1-9 As shown:

[0035] A multi-functional sweeping and scraping broom includes a broom body 1, with broom bristles 14 and scraper blades 13 respectively on both sides of the broom body 1. A hinge seat 2 is provided on the side of the broom body 1, and the hinge seat 2 is connected to a handle 9. A locking element 3 is provided on the hinge seat 2, which can at least keep the broom bristles away from the handle 9 or keep the scraper blade away from the handle 9. Figure 1 As shown, the broom body and handle are kept parallel, with the broom bristles positioned away from the handle, allowing the user to clean using the bristles; Figure 2 As shown, the broom body and handle are kept parallel, and the scraper is positioned away from the handle, allowing the user to clean using the scraper. Figure 3 As shown, the broom body and handle are kept perpendicular, allowing users to clean using the broom bristles or scraper. In this position, users can clean walls or glass surfaces. The broom body and handle can even be tilted, providing users with a high degree of freedom in operation and meeting various cleaning needs—a multi-purpose tool.

[0036] In particular, when cleaning with broom bristles 14 or scraper 13, the handle 9 and hinge 2 are located on the side of the broom body 1. The side-mounted handle 9 ensures that the user will not interfere with the cleaning process. Pushing the broom body from back to front also makes cleaning easier.

[0037] The locking component 3 is a pivot between the hinge seat 2 and the broom body 1. The pivot can move laterally, and by moving the pivot, the hinge seat 2 and the broom body 1 can be locked. This simplifies the product structure, as the locking component serves both as a locking function and as a rotational support.

[0038] The broom body 1 is provided with a connecting seat 10, which has a mounting hole 101 for connecting a locking member; the hinge seat connector 21 in the middle of the hinge seat 2 is provided with a limiting hole 211 for connecting a locking member 3; the locking member 3 passes through the mounting hole 101 and the limiting hole 211; the mounting hole 101 is provided with at least two mounting hole limiting grooves 102, and the limiting hole 211 is provided with at least two limiting hole limiting grooves 212; the locking member is provided with a protrusion, and when the locking member is pushed to move, the protrusion 311 of the locking member simultaneously engages with the mounting hole limiting groove 102 and the limiting hole limiting groove 212, thereby locking the hinge position of the hinge seat 2 and the broom body 1; when the locking member is pushed to move, the protrusion of the locking member engages with the mounting hole limiting groove 102 or the limiting hole limiting groove 212, allowing the hinge seat 2 and the broom body 1 to rotate relative to each other.

[0039] The mounting hole limiting groove 102 and the limiting hole limiting groove 212 are the same in number and correspond one-to-one; the protrusions of the locking member simultaneously engage with different limiting grooves of the mounting hole and the limiting hole, allowing the broom body 1 to remain vertical or tilted with the handle 9. The more limiting grooves there are, the more angles can be maintained between the broom body and the handle. The number of limiting grooves is controlled by the manufacturer, and the number of protrusions on the surface of the locking member is also controlled by the manufacturer; the number of protrusions can be one, multiple, or correspond one-to-one with the limiting grooves.

[0040] The locking element 3 includes a left locking element 31 and a right locking element 32 that are fixed to each other. The left locking element 31 has an inner cavity, and the right locking element 32 is fixed in the inner cavity. The outer surface of the left locking element serves as a rotating abutment surface between the hinge seat and the broom body, and the hinge seat rotates by relying on the outer surface of the left locking element. In this application, the locking element does not have an elastic element. Both unlocking and locking of the locking element require manual pushing by the user. Alternatively, a spring can be provided in the locking element, and the spring provides force to the protrusion of the locking element while simultaneously engaging the limiting groove of the mounting hole and the limiting groove of the limiting hole.

[0041] The right locking member 32 and the left locking member 31 are different colors; or, the ends of the right locking member 32 and the left locking member 31 are different colors. By distinguishing them by color, users can better observe and understand the actual locking status. For example, if the end of the right locking member is set to red, the red end of the right locking member will be exposed when locked, and the user will see the red part, which means that the hinge seat and the broom body cannot rotate.

[0042] The right locking element 32 and the left locking element 31 are secured together by a snap-fit ​​mechanism. For example... Figure 5As shown, the surface of the right locking member is provided with a protrusion 328, and the inner cavity of the left locking member is provided with an annular groove 318, the protrusion 328 can be locked onto the annular groove 318. The right locking member and the left locking member can also be locked together by a tight fit or by screw fixing. Preferably, the surface of the right locking member is provided with a rib 321, the rib can be tight-fitted onto the inner cavity surface of the left locking member.

[0043] The right locking member is provided with a right locking member step portion 329, and the left locking member is provided with a left locking member step portion 319. The right locking member step portion 329 and the left locking member step portion 319 respectively restrict the right locking member and the left locking member from disengaging from the hinge position.

[0044] The scraper 13 is longer than the broom body 1. This prevents the broom body 1 from hitting the surface of objects during the cleaning process.

[0045] The broom body 1 includes a first body 11 and a second body 12, with the scraper blade clamped in a cavity formed between the first and second bodies. Figure 8 As shown, the scraper connecting part 131 and the broom bristle mounting base 141 are limited in the cavity between the corresponding first body 11 and second body 12.

[0046] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
