The first elastic member 40 is used to drive the blocking member 20 to switch from the second preset position to the first preset position. The second elastic member 60 is connected to the sealing cover plate 50 and the dust collecting rack 10. The second elastic member 60 is used to drive the sealing cover plate 50 to switch from the fourth preset position to the third preset position.

[0051] The following is a detailed description of each part of the dust collection assembly provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure:

[0052] The dust box includes a dust rack 10, which is provided with an opening for accommodating the dust bag module 30. The dust rack 10 can be understood as a frame structure formed by a plurality of connected rods, or as a box structure formed by a hollow box structure formed by rods and plates. In addition to accommodating the dust bag module 30, the accommodating portion also serves to guide the dust bag module 30 during installation.

[0053] As shown in Figures 2 and 4, the blocking member 20 is provided on the dust collecting rack 10. The blocking member 20 has a first preset position and a second preset position. The dust bag module 30 can drive the blocking member 20 to switch from the first preset position to the second preset position. In the first preset position, the blocking member 20 limits the protective cover 103 to prevent the protective cover 103 from blocking the opening of the dust collecting rack 10. In the second preset position, the blocking member 20 releases the blocking of the protective cover 103.

[0054] The blocking member 20 can be disposed at the opening of the dust collection rack 10, and the blocking member 20 and the dust collection rack 10 are rotatably connected. For example, the blocking member 20 is provided with a rotating shaft 23, and the dust collection rack 10 is provided with a mounting portion, the mounting portion having a shaft hole, and the rotating shaft 23 is disposed in the shaft hole. The rotating shaft 23 is rotatable within the shaft hole, and when the rotating shaft 23 rotates within the shaft hole, the blocking member 20 switches between the first preset position and the second preset position.

[0055] As shown in FIG6 , the blocking member 20 may include a blocking portion 21 and a connecting portion 22. The connecting portion 22 is provided with a rotating shaft 23. The blocking portion 21 and the connecting portion 22 are connected. When the blocking member 20 is in a first preset position, the blocking portion 21 is located in the closing path of the protective cover 103, thereby blocking the closing of the protective cover 103. When the blocking member 20 is in a second preset position, the blocking portion 21 is out of the closing path of the protective cover 103, thereby allowing the protective cover 103 to close.

[0056] In one feasible embodiment, the dust collection rack 10 has a length, width, and height that are perpendicular to each other, and the dust bag module 30 is inserted into the dust collection rack 10 along the length. The rotating shaft 23 on the blocking member 20 is arranged along the height direction, that is, the blocking member 20 can rotate along the axis in the height direction. The blocking portion 21 and the connecting portion 22 are non-parallel; for example, the angle between the blocking portion 21 and the connecting portion 22 is obtuse. This prevents interference between the connecting portion 22 and the dust collection rack 10 when the blocking portion 21 rotates.

[0057] A first mounting plate and a second mounting plate are disposed opposite each other at the opening of the dust collection rack 10. The first mounting plate and the second mounting plate are perpendicular to each other in the height direction, and a gap is formed between the first mounting plate and the second mounting plate, within which the blocking member 20 is disposed. Axial holes are provided on both the first mounting plate and the second mounting plate, and a rotating shaft 23 is provided at the top and bottom ends of the blocking member 20. The rotating shaft 23 at the top of the blocking member 20 engages with the axis hole in the first mounting plate, and the rotating shaft 23 at the bottom of the blocking member 20 engages with the axis hole in the second mounting plate.

[0058] At least one blocking member 20 is provided on each side of the dust collection rack 10. For example, the dust collection rack 10 is provided with a first blocking member 20 and a second blocking member 20, respectively located at either end of the accommodating portion along the length direction. The blocking members 20 at both ends of the accommodating portion jointly block the protective cover 103, thereby maintaining structural stability and preventing damage to the protective cover 103 due to uneven force applied to the protective cover 103.

[0059] The dust collection frame 10 is provided with a slot in which the dust bag module 30 is mounted and can move along the slot. To limit the width of the dust bag module 30, the dust collection assembly also includes a damping member located in the slot to limit the position of the dust bag module 30. For example, the damping member can be a rib or bump disposed within the slot.

[0060] The opening on the dust collecting rack 10 is blocked with a protective cover 103. The protective cover 103 may be a cover plate specifically for blocking the opening, or the protective cover 103 may be the protective cover 103 of the cleaning device. In other words, the protective cover 103 may be stuck in the opening, or the area of ​​the protective cover 103 may be larger than the area of ​​the opening. The protective cover 103 and the dust collecting rack 10 may be connected by snapping or magnetic attraction. Alternatively, the protective cover 103 may be connected to the body of the cleaning device, for example, one end of the protective cover 103 is hinged to the body of the cleaning device, and the other end of the protective cover 103 is snapped to the body of the cleaning device.

[0061] The first elastic member 40 is connected to the blocking member 20 and the dust collecting rack 10 respectively, and the first elastic member 40 is used to drive the blocking member 20 to switch from the second preset position to the first preset position. For example, the first elastic member 40 can be a torsion spring, which is sleeved on the rotating shaft 23 of the blocking member 20. When the blocking member 20 is located at the first preset position, the torsion spring is in the initial state (non-twisted state), and when the blocking member 20 is located at the second preset position, the torsion spring is in the torsion state, at which time the blocking member 20 is subjected to the elastic force applied by the torsion spring. When the dust bag module 30 is taken out of the accommodating portion, the restriction of the dust bag module 30 on the blocking member 20 is released, and the torsion spring drives the blocking member 20 to switch from the second preset position to the first preset position. Of course, in actual applications, the first elastic member 40 can also be a compression spring, a spring sheet or a tension spring, etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.

[0062] It is understood that in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the blocking member 20 can also be slidably connected to the dust collecting rack 10. The dust collecting rack 10 is provided with a mounting area, the blocking member 20 is provided in the mounting area, and the blocking member can slide in the mounting area, so that the blocking member 20 can move between the first preset position and the second preset position.

[0063] For example, the mounting area on the dust collection rack 10 can be a mounting slot, and the blocking member 20 is disposed within the mounting slot and is capable of moving along the mounting slot. As shown in FIG7 , the blocking member 20 includes a sliding rod 24 and a push block 25. The push block 25 is disposed on the side of the sliding rod 24. During installation, the dust bag module 30 can push the push block 25 to move, thereby driving the sliding rod 24 to slide. The first elastic member 40 is a compression spring that is mounted on the sliding rod 24. When the blocking member 20 is in the first preset position, the compression spring is uncompressed. When the blocking member 20 is in the second preset position, the compression spring is compressed.

[0064] In some embodiments, for ease of installation, the blocking member 20 and the first elastic member 40 can be integrated into a housing 26. The housing 26 has a cavity therein, and the sliding rod 24 and the compression spring are located within the cavity of the housing 26. The side of the housing 26 has a through hole, and the push block 25 is disposed within the through hole. The push block 25 protrudes from the surface of the housing 26, thereby enabling the push block 25 to contact the dust bag module 30. When the sliding rod 24 is in the first preset position, the end of the sliding rod 24 extends outside the housing 26. The portion extending outside the housing 26 is used to limit the protective cover. When the sliding rod 24 is in the second preset position, the end of the sliding rod 24 enters the housing 26, releasing the limit on the protective cover.

[0065] The dust bag module 30 is mounted in the receiving portion of the dust collection rack 10. In the disclosed embodiment, the dust bag module 30 can be understood as a dust and foreign matter filtering device. For example, the dust bag module 30 can be provided with a filter screen, a dust bag 32, or a filter layer for filtering and collecting dust. The dust bag module 30 filters dust and foreign matter to prevent them from entering the blower, thereby protecting the blower. The dust collection assembly is also used to collect dust and foreign matter. For example, foreign matter and dust are collected in the dust bag 32, or a dust collection chamber is formed in the integrated assembly, and foreign matter and dust are collected in the dust collection chamber.

[0066] As shown in Figure 8, the dust bag module 30 includes a mounting frame 31 and a dust bag 32. The mounting frame 31 is connected to the accommodating portion and is detachably connected to the dust collection rack 10. The dust bag 32 is mounted on the mounting frame 31. This detachable connection between the mounting frame 31 and the dust collection rack 10 facilitates cleaning dust and foreign matter and replacing the dust bag 32. The mounting frame 31 may be provided with a through hole, which is covered by the dust bag 32. The dust bag 32 is air-permeable and has a filtering function. The dust bag 32 has filtering and collection functions, thereby filtering and collecting dust and foreign matter sucked in by the fan into the dust collection assembly.

[0067] The mounting frame 31 includes a frame body and a protrusion 311. The protrusion 311 is provided on the frame body. A positioning portion is provided on the dust collecting rack 10. The positioning portion and the protrusion 311 cooperate to achieve the limitation of the dust bag module 30. When the mounting frame 31 is installed to the accommodating portion, the protrusion 311 can push the blocking member 20 to switch from the first preset position to the second preset position.

[0068] For example, the frame body can be a flat plate structure, with the raised portion 311 disposed perpendicular to the frame body. When the blocking member 20 is in the first predetermined position, the projection of the blocking member 20 along the width direction onto the mounting frame 31 at least overlaps with the raised portion 311. Thus, when the mounting frame 31 is installed into the accommodating portion, the raised portion 311 can move the blocking member 20, thereby switching the position of the blocking member 20. A stop is provided in a predetermined area of ​​the dust collection rack 10. This stop cooperates with the raised portion 311 to prevent the dust bag module 30 from extending too deeply into the accommodating portion. The predetermined area is the projection area of ​​the raised portion 311 along the width direction onto the dust collection rack 10.

[0069] To facilitate removal of the dust bag module 30, a disassembly portion 312 can be provided on the frame. The disassembly portion 312 can be provided at an outward end of the frame, which is the end of the frame facing away from the accommodating portion. The disassembly portion 312 provides a portion for the user to hold during disassembly of the dust bag module 30. A protrusion 311 can be provided on each side of the disassembly portion 312, with each protrusion 311 corresponding to each blocking member 20.

[0070] The dust collection rack 10 is provided with an air intake, which is covered by a dust bag module 30. The air intake is connected to the fan. When the dust bag module 30 is located in the receiving portion, the dust bag 32 in the dust bag module 30 covers or docks with the air intake through the through hole, thereby preventing dust and foreign matter from entering the fan through the air intake.

[0071] Furthermore, in order to prevent dust and foreign matter from entering the fan due to misoperation, the air suction port can be blocked by the sealing cover 50. As shown in Figures 3 and 5, the sealing cover 50 has a third preset position and a fourth preset position. The dust bag module 30 can drive the sealing cover 50 to switch from the third preset position to the fourth preset position. When the dust bag module 30 is not installed in the accommodating portion, the sealing cover 50 is located in the third preset position and covers the air suction port. When the dust bag module 30 is installed in the accommodating portion, the sealing cover 50 is located in the fourth preset position. The switching of the sealing cover 50 between the third preset position and the fourth preset position can, on the one hand, prevent the fan from being damaged by misoperation, and on the other hand, prevent the sealing cover 50 from interfering with the normal operation of the cleaning equipment (normal operation requires communication between the air suction port and the fan).

[0072] The second elastic member 60 connects the sealing cover plate 50 and the dust collection rack 10 and is used to drive the sealing cover plate 50 to switch from the fourth preset position to the third preset position. For example, the second elastic member 60 can be a spring. When the sealing cover plate 50 is in the third preset position, the second elastic member 60 is in an initial state (unloaded). When the sealing cover plate 50 is in the fourth preset position, the second elastic member 60 is stretched or compressed. At this time, if the dust bag module 30 is in the accommodating portion, the dust bag module 30 blocks the sealing cover plate 50 from switching from the fourth preset position to the third preset position. If the dust bag module 30 is not installed in the accommodating portion or is removed from the accommodating portion, the second elastic member 60 drives the sealing cover plate 50 to switch from the fourth preset position to the third preset position. The damping member provided on the dust collection rack 10 can improve the connection stability of the dust bag module 30 and prevent the elastic force of the second elastic member 60 from squeezing the dust bag module 30 out and affecting the normal operation of the cleaning device.

[0073] The sealing cover plate 50 can move along the width direction in the dust collecting frame 10. For example, a guide groove extending along the width direction is provided on the dust collecting frame 10. The edge of the sealing cover plate 50 is stuck in the guide groove, and the sealing cover plate 50 can move in the guide groove.

[0074] The dust collection assembly provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a dust collection rack 10, a blocking member 20 and a dust bag module 30. The blocking member 20 is arranged on the dust collection rack 10. When the blocking member 20 is in the first preset position, it blocks the protective cover 103 from blocking the opening of the dust collection rack 10. When the blocking member 20 is in the second preset position, it releases the blocking of the protective cover 103. The dust bag module 30 can drive the blocking member 20 to switch from the first preset position to the second preset position, that is, when the dust bag module 30 is not installed in the accommodating portion, the blocking member 20 blocks the protective cover 103 from closing.
