[0002] An electric sweeper is an electric cleaning tool that uses an electric drive to clean the floor. Its structure mainly includes a working head, a handle universally connected to the working head, and a battery pack for powering the working head. Traditional electric sweepers all have the battery pack built into the handle, that is, the battery pack is directly assembled in the handle and cannot be removed. Therefore, in actual use, there are often many drawbacks: First, when the battery pack needs to be charged, it must not only be placed at a power supply together with the electric sweeper, but the electric sweeper must also wait for the battery pack to be fully charged before it can be used again, making the charging process more cumbersome and inconvenient. Second, the battery pack and circuit board are designed separately and built into the handle and working head respectively. Therefore, if either component is damaged, the handle or working head must be completely disassembled, which makes repair or replacement quite laborious. Third, the built-in space of the battery pack is affected by the diameter of the handle. To ensure the aesthetic appearance and dexterity of use, the handle must meet certain size requirements. Therefore, installing the battery pack in a narrow space is quite troublesome. Usually, the battery pack must be placed before subsequent assembly can proceed, making the assembly process quite cumbersome and inconvenient. Utility Model

[0024] An electric sweeper with a detachable battery pack, as shown in Figures 1 to 6, is an electric cleaning tool that cleans the floor by electric drive. Its structure mainly consists of a working head 1, a handle 2, a mop rod 3 and a battery pack 6.

[0025] The working head 1 is a sweeping working head in this embodiment, but in actual use, a vacuuming working head or a mopping working head can also be selected, so the usage style of the working head 1 is not limited.

[0026] The handle 2 is made of plastic. One end of the handle, that is, the lower end shown in Figure 1, is installed on the top surface of the working head 1 through a universal connection. The upper end of the handle, that is, the upper end shown in Figure 1, is provided with a connector 21 of a conjoined structure. The connector is mainly used to form a plug-in connection with the mop rod 3 made of an aluminum tube, so that the user can use the electric sweeper without bending over when holding the mop rod. Of course, the mop rod 3 may not be provided on the handle 2. In this case, the user only needs to hold the handle 2 directly to use the electric sweeper, that is, use it as a handheld device.

[0027] 7 and 8 , the positioning block 62 is designed at the upper end of the battery pack 6, and the elastic buckle 61 is designed at the lower end of the battery pack 6. Correspondingly, a positioning hole 23 and a locking hole 24 are provided on the groove walls at both ends of the embedding groove 22. As shown in FIG2 and FIG5 , the groove wall at the upper end of the embedding groove 22 is provided with a positioning hole 23 for positioning and fitting with the positioning block 62, and the groove wall at the lower end of the embedding groove 22 is provided with a locking hole 24 for locking with the elastic buckle 61. Therefore, the battery pack 6 is first positioned and fitted in the embedding groove 22 by the positioning block 62, and then locked in the embedding groove 22 by the elastic buckle 61, and the outer surface of the embedded battery pack 6 is integrated with the outer surface of the handle 2 to ensure that the detachable battery pack structure does not affect the compact size and beautiful appearance of the electric sweeper.

[0028] At the same time, the battery pack 6 can be charged separately after being disassembled, avoiding the trouble of having to place the battery pack together with the electric sweeper at the power supply when charging. That is, the electric sweeper can be charged and adjusted by configuring multiple battery packs, so that the charging of the battery pack 6 will not affect the idleness of the electric sweeper.

[0029] The handle 2 is also provided with a charging indicator light 4 and a charging port 5. The charging indicator light and the charging port are both arranged on the side of the handle 2 opposite to the embedding groove 22. They can be used to display the working status of the battery pack 6 in real time, and can also meet the charging and charging instructions when the battery pack 6 is removed or not.

[0030] The battery pack 6 has a built-in circuit board to form an integrated structure. The circuit board is mainly used to control the operation of the working head, and the installation structure of the detachable battery pack is coordinated with the structure of the built-in circuit board of the battery pack, which not only avoids the installation of the battery pack 6 being affected by the size of the handle aperture, but also makes assembly and use more convenient, and the maintenance and replacement of the whole set is also more labor-saving.
