DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below are examples for explaining the present application and should not be construed as limiting the present application.

[0037] Referring to FIG. 1, a brush assembly 1000 according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. The brush assembly 1000 includes a shell 100, a roller brush 200, and a comb structure 300.

[0038] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the shell 100 has a roller brush cavity 110 inside, and the roller brush 200 is located in the roller brush cavity 110. The shell 100 has an opening 120 on the lower side, and the opening 120 is in communication with the roller brush cavity 110. Part of the structure of the roller brush 200 extends out of the shell 100 through the opening 120, so that the roller brush 200 can contact the surface of the object to be cleaned. The roller brush 200 is rotationally connected in the roller brush cavity 110. The brush assembly 1000 includes a driving motor, which can drive the roller brush 200 to rotate around its own axis. The comb structure 300 is also located in the roller brush cavity 110. When the roller brush 200 rotates, the roller brush 200 sweeps across the comb structure 300. The comb structure 300 can hook the hair and other debris in the roller brush 200. Alternatively, the comb structure 300 can block the hair and other debris in the roller brush 200, making it difficult for the hair and other debris to rotate with the roller brush 200, thereby isolating the hair and other debris and achieving a cleaning effect.

[0039] Specifically, referring to the structure of the rolling brush 200, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 6, the rolling brush 200 includes a roller body 210 and a plurality of brush strips 220, the axis of the rolling brush 200 is the same as the axis of the roller body 210, the axial direction of the rolling brush 200 is the same as the axial direction of the roller body 210, and the rolling brush 200 rotates around the axis of the roller body 210. The brush strips 220 play a cleaning role, and can be in a thin strip structure or a thick strip structure, and can be provided as a brush or a rubber strip. One end of the brush strip 220 is connected to the outer peripheral wall of the roller body 210 and is arranged in the radial direction of the roller body 210, and a plurality of brush strips 220 are arranged in the axial direction of the roller body 210.

[0040] Referring to FIG. 2, for the structure of the comb tooth structure 300, the comb tooth structure 300 includes a plurality of first tooth portions 310, which are arranged in the axial direction of the roller body 210, and the first tooth portions 310 are protruded from the inner wall of the rolling brush cavity 110 and are in an integrated structure with the inner wall of the rolling brush cavity 110. As shown in FIG. 4, in some embodiments, the first tooth portion 310 is arranged downward, and when the rolling brush 200 rotates, the brush strip 220 will contact the lower end of the first tooth portion 310 from bottom to top. Specifically, two adjacent first tooth portions 310 define a groove 311, the opening of the groove 311 is arranged toward the rolling brush 200, and the inner wall of the groove 311 includes a bottom wall 3112 arranged toward the rolling brush 200, and when the rolling brush 200 rotates, the brush strip 220 will enter the groove 311. The first tooth portion 310 is provided with a protrusion 320 on one side, and the protrusion 320 is located on the side of the first tooth portion 310 away from the inner wall of the rolling brush cavity 110, which can be understood as that the protrusion 320 is located outside the groove 311. As shown in FIG. 2, the first tooth portion 310 and the protrusion 320 define a clamping groove 323, which is located on the side of the protrusion 320 away from the rolling brush 200, and the clamping groove 323 and the groove 311 are arranged in sequence in the rotating direction of the rolling brush 200, and when the rolling brush 200 rotates, the brush strip 220 passes through the clamping groove 323 and the groove 311 in sequence.

[0041] Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, the protrusion 320 includes a first side wall 321 and a second side wall 322, which are arranged back to back along a first direction, the first side wall 321 faces the roller brush 200, and the second side wall 322 faces away from the roller brush 200. In the first direction, the maximum length of the protrusion 320 is less than that of the first tooth portion 310. For the actual orientation of the first direction, it is noted that, for example, in some embodiments, the first direction can be the front-rear direction in FIG. 8, at this time, the protrusion 320 protrudes from the lower end of the first tooth portion 310, the protrusion 320 is arranged downward, in the front-rear direction, the maximum length of the protrusion 320 is less than that of the first tooth portion 310, and the cross section of the protrusion 320 can be square, semicircular, triangular, or trapezoidal. In other embodiments, the first direction can also be the up-down direction, at this time, the protrusion 320 protrudes from the rear end of the first tooth portion 310, and the protrusion 320 is arranged rearward. In other embodiments, the first direction can also be the radial direction of the roller body 210.

[0042] Specifically, the rotation direction of the roller brush 200 can refer to the arrow direction in FIG. 6. When the roller brush 200 rotates, the roller brush 200 drives the brush strip 220 to rotate toward the protrusion 320. It can be understood that the brush strip 220 collides with the protrusion 320 head-on, and the roller brush 200 rotates to generate a centrifugal force, which can cause the hair in the brush strip 220 to be thrown out, thereby facilitating the hooking of the hair by the clamping groove 323. Since the second side wall 322 faces away from the roller brush 200, when the brush strip 220 passes through the clamping groove 323, the second side wall 322 can block the hair. As the roller brush 200 continues to rotate, the protrusion 320 can pull the hair out of the roller brush 200, and the protrusion 320 can also break the hair, so that the hair is separated from the roller brush 200. Then, the brush strip 220 enters the recess 311, and the first tooth portion 310 can comb the brush strip 220 to further clean the hair debris in the brush strip 220, so that the hair debris is not easily rotated together with the roller brush 200. In addition, the top end of the brush strip 220 can be in contact with the bottom wall 3112. At this time, since the roller brush 200 continues to rotate, the top end of the brush strip 220 rubs against the bottom wall 3112. The bottom wall 3112 can scrape off the debris entangled at the top end of the brush strip 220, or there can be a small gap between the brush strip 220 and the bottom wall 3112, and the debris entangled at the top end of the brush strip 220 can also directly rub against the bottom wall 3112 of the recess 311. The advantage of such an arrangement is that when the top end of the brush strip 220 is not entangled with debris, the brush strip 220 does not contact the bottom wall 3112, which can reduce noise. In addition, the recess 311 also has the function of avoiding the brush strip 220, which can reduce the noise generated by the direct impact of the brush strip 220 on the comb structure 300.

[0043] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application also provide a cleaning device, which comprises the ground brush assembly of the above-mentioned embodiments, and the cleaning device can be a device such as a mite removal instrument, a sweeping robot or a dust collector.

[0044] Referring to FIGS. 3 and 5, in some embodiments, the inside of the cleaning device is provided with a dust collection cavity and a dust suction channel 130, the dust suction channel 130 is communicated with the rolling brush cavity 110 and the dust collection cavity, and the inside of the cleaning device is also provided with a fan, the fan can generate negative pressure to suck dust and garbage from the outside into the dust collection cavity, the dust and garbage from the outside pass through the opening 120, the rolling brush cavity 110 and the dust suction channel 130 in sequence to reach the dust collection cavity, when the hair and other sundries in the rolling brush 200 are hooked by the comb tooth structure 300, the hair and other sundries will gradually be separated from the rolling brush 200 as the rolling brush 200 continues to rotate, then the hair and other sundries are sucked into the dust collection cavity by the suction force of the fan, so as to complete the automatic cleaning of the hair and other sundries wound in the rolling brush 200.

[0045] Referring to FIGS. 3 and 5, specifically, the first tooth part 310 is located at the joint of the rolling brush cavity 110 and the dust suction channel 130, and the second side wall 322 of the convex part 320 is arranged towards the dust suction channel 130, since the convex part 320 can hook the hair in the rolling brush 200, the convex part 320 can pull out the hair in the rolling brush 200 to make the hair separate from the rolling brush 200, at this time, since the fan in the cleaning device generates negative pressure, the dust suction channel 130 can generate suction force to make the hair hooked by the second side wall 322 completely separate from the rolling brush 200, the hair will be directly sucked into the dust suction channel 130 and finally into the dust collection cavity, so that the hair is not easy to fall from the opening 120 to the outside of the shell 100, and the external environment can be avoided from being polluted.

[0046] In some embodiments, the minimum distance between the brush strip 220 and the bottom wall 3112 is less than or equal to 3 mm, so that the brush strip 220 is arranged relatively close to the bottom wall 3112 of the groove 311, so that the brush strip 220 can be in contact with the bottom wall 3112, or the distance between the brush strip 220 and the bottom wall 3112 is small.

[0047] Referring to FIG. 7, specifically, the maximum distance between the bottom wall 3112 and the axis of the roller body 210 is L2, which can also be understood as the maximum distance between the first tooth portion 310 and the axis of the roller body 210, and the maximum distance between the brush strip 220 and the axis of the roller body 210 is L3. When L2 is greater than L3, there is a gap between the brush strip 220 and the bottom wall 3112, and when L2 is less than or equal to L3, the brush strip 220 is in contact with the bottom wall 3112. The minimum distance between the brush strip 220 and the bottom wall 3112 is L4, and L4 satisfies: L4 = L2 - L3 ≤ 3 mm. Such a configuration can ensure that the gap between the brush strip 220 and the bottom wall 3112 is small, which is conducive to the bottom wall 3112 removing debris wrapped around the top end position of the brush strip 220, while also minimizing the noise generated by the friction between the brush strip 220 and the bottom wall 3112. In some embodiments, due to manufacturing tolerances, the lengths of the plurality of brush strips 220 have differences, and there can be a situation where some of the brush strips 220 are in contact with the bottom wall 3112 and some of the brush strips 220 have a gap between them and the bottom wall 3112.

[0048] Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, in some embodiments, the maximum distance between the brush strip 220 and the axis of the roller body 210 is L3, and the minimum distance between the convex portion 320 and the axis of the roller body 210 is L1, and L3 is greater than L1. The top end position of the brush strip 220 is beyond the position of the convex portion 320, which ensures that the convex portion 320 can better hook the hair at the root position of the brush strip 220, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0049] Referring to FIG. 9, in some embodiments, the first tooth portion 310 includes a third side wall 312 and a fourth side wall 313, the third side wall 312 and the fourth side wall 313 are connected to each other, an included angle is formed between the third side wall 312 and the fourth side wall 313, the third side wall 312 faces the rolling brush 200, and the convex portion 320 is arranged on the fourth side wall 313. In some embodiments, the first tooth portion 310 is located at the rear side of the rolling brush 200, the third side wall 312 is arranged to extend along the up-down direction, the fourth side wall 313 is arranged to extend along the front-rear direction, the third side wall 312 and the fourth side wall 313 are perpendicular to each other, the fourth side wall 313 is arranged downward, the upper end of the third side wall 312 is connected to the inner wall of the rolling brush cavity 110, the lower end of the third side wall 312 is connected to one end of the fourth side wall 313, the other end of the fourth side wall 313 is connected to the inner wall of the rolling brush cavity 110, and in the front-rear direction, the length of the first tooth portion 310 gradually increases from top to bottom, which can be understood as the distance between the third side wall 312 and the bottom wall 3112 gradually increases from top to bottom. In this way, the shape of the first tooth portion 310 is relatively regular, and the structure of the first tooth portion 310 can be more conveniently manufactured. In addition, compared with the rectangular shape of the first tooth portion 310, when the rolling brush 200 rotates, the hair is more likely to move upward along the side wall of the first tooth portion 310 and be caught at the rib portion of the first tooth portion 310, and in the present embodiment, the horizontally extending fourth side wall 313 can block the hair, so that the hair does not move upward, and the hair is not easily caught at the rib portion of the first tooth portion 310.

[0050] In other embodiments, the first tooth portion 310 can also be located at the front side or the upper side of the rolling brush 200. It should be noted that when the first tooth portion 310 is located at the front side of the rolling brush 200, the convex portion 320 protrudes from the upper side of the first tooth portion 310. When the first tooth portion 310 is located at the upper side of the rolling brush 200, the third side wall 312 extends along the horizontal direction, and the fourth side wall 313 extends along the up-down direction.

[0051] Referring to FIG. 8, in some embodiments, the bottom wall 3112 can be configured as a circular arc wall, and the bottom wall 3112 is arranged around the axis of the roller body 210, so that the cross section of the first tooth portion 310 is in the shape of a sector. In this way, the bottom wall 3112 can be more matched with the movement track of the brush strip 220, which is conducive to the bottom wall 3112 to remove the debris at the top end of the brush strip 220.

[0052] Referring to FIG. 9, in some embodiments, the length of the third side wall 312 in the up-down direction is greater than the length of the fourth side wall 313 in the front-rear direction, so as to increase the length of the first tooth portion 310 in the up-down direction and improve the structural strength of the first tooth portion 310. At the same time, the length of the first tooth portion 310 in the front-rear direction is moderate, which does not cause the first tooth portion 310 to be too close to the rolling brush 200 to generate a large noise, and also ensures that the rolling brush 200 can rotate smoothly.

[0053] It can be understood that, as shown in FIG. 9, in some embodiments, the length of the convex part 320 is less than the length of the first tooth part 310 in the front-rear direction. It can be understood that the connection between the convex part 320 and the fourth side wall 313 forms a clamping groove 323, which is defined between the second side wall 322 and the fourth side wall 313, and the second side wall 322 and the fourth side wall 313 are perpendicular to each other. It can also be understood that a step surface is defined between the second side wall 322 and the fourth side wall 313. When the convex part 320 hooks the hair, the hair is clamped in the clamping groove 323 or the step surface, so that the hair is not easy to come off the convex part 320, which is beneficial to the convex part 320 to pull out the hair in the roller brush 200, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0054] As shown in FIGS. 6 and 9, in some embodiments, the maximum distance between the second side wall 322 of the convex part 320 and the axis of the roller body 210 is L1, and the maximum distance between the first tooth part 310 and the axis of the roller body 210 is L2, which can be understood as the maximum distance between the bottom wall 3112 and the axis of the roller body 210. Moreover, L2 is greater than L1. Such an arrangement can make the position of the convex part 320 closer to the brush strip 220, so that the convex part 320 can penetrate into the root position of the first brush strip 220, thereby facilitating the hooking of the hair at the root position.

[0055] As shown in FIG. 9, in some embodiments, the first side wall 321 and the third side wall 312 are both arranged in the up-down direction, and the third side wall 312 is below the first side wall 321. The first side wall 321 is flush with the third side wall 312. It can be understood that the side wall on the side of the convex part 320 facing the roller brush 200 is flush with the side wall on the side of the first tooth part 310 facing the roller brush 200. Such an arrangement can make the position of the convex part 320 closer to the brush strip 220, so that the convex part 320 can penetrate into the root position of the brush strip 220, thereby facilitating the hooking of the hair wound at the root position, and improving the effect of cleaning the hair. In addition, such an arrangement can also facilitate the manufacture of the structure of the first tooth part 310 and the convex part 320. When the first tooth part 310 and the convex part 320 are manufactured by an integral injection molding process, the structure of the first tooth part 310 and the convex part 320 can be easily demolded.

[0056] As shown in FIG. 1, in some embodiments, the roller brush 200 further comprises a scraping strip 230 connected to the outer peripheral wall of the roller body 210.
