Water Surface Cleaner Filter Basket Hinge and Clamping Mechanism
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing water surface cleaning devices face issues with inconvenient disassembly of storage devices, leading to potential environmental pollution from scattered garbage during cleaning.
Innovation Solution
The device incorporates a limiting rib and limiting surface mechanism with a clamping buckle to restrict rotational and translational movement of the filter basket, allowing stable installation and disassembly, while a hinged cover prevents garbage scatter during cleaning.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the upper cover is opened at a large angle or directly disassembled for cleaning the storage device, then the cleaning operation becomes accessible, but the garbage in the storage device may be scattered causing environmental pollution
Solution Approach 1:
The device is segmented into a main body and a detachable storage device. The storage device can be completely removed from the main body through the opening, allowing cleaning operations to be performed on a separate component without affecting the main structure. This segmentation enables the cover to remain attached to the main body while the storage device is removed for cleaning, preventing garbage scattering.
Solution Approach 2:
The storage device is extracted as a separate removable component from the main body. By taking out the storage device through the opening, the design allows the cover to stay in place on the main body while the storage device is completely removed for cleaning. This extraction approach ensures that garbage remains contained within the removed storage device during cleaning operations.
2Ease of operation
If the storage device is made easily detachable for frequent cleaning, then cleaning convenience is improved, but the stability of installation during operation may be compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The connection between the main body and storage device is designed to be dynamically changeable - firmly connected during operation for stability, and easily detachable for cleaning. The opening and clamping mechanism allows the storage device to be securely held during water surface cleaning operations, then quickly removed when cleaning is needed, providing both operational stability and cleaning convenience.
Solution Approach 2:
The device is divided into separable components (main body and storage device) that can be easily detached through the opening. This segmentation allows the storage device to be quickly removed for cleaning while maintaining a stable, integrated structure during operation. The simple opening design enables easy separation without compromising the structural integrity when connected.

AI summary
A water surface cleaning device is provided. The water surface cleaning device includes a main body, a cover and a filter basket. The main body is formed with an opening for the filter basket to get into and out of the main body. One side of the opening is provided with a buckle. Two opposite sides of the filter basket are respectively provided with a hinge part and a clamping part. The hinge part is hinged to one side of the cover, and an other side of the cover is configured for being clamped to the buckle. One side, where the hinge part is located, of the filter basket is provided with a limiting rib, and a limiting surface is arranged at a position on an inner side of the opening corresponding to the limiting rib. The limiting surface restricts the limiting rib from rotating about the clamping part.
