Floor brush and cleaning device
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current wet cleaning devices face inefficiencies in cleaning floors due to residues left between rolling brushes, complex and labor-intensive assembly, uneven water spraying, and inability to adjust water distribution between front and rear brushes.
Innovation Solution
A floor brush design with dual rolling brushes, scraping mechanisms, and adjustable water spraying plates, along with a sewage wiping system and solenoid valves to ensure even water distribution and independent control of water flow, enhancing cleaning efficiency and user experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If a single rolling brush is used, then the device structure is simple, but cleaning efficiency is low and residues remain between brushes
Solution Approach 1:
The single rolling brush is divided into multiple rolling brushes (front rolling brush and rear rolling brush) that work in parallel. This segmentation allows each brush to cover specific areas, eliminating the residue problem between brushes while maintaining manageable structural complexity through modular design.
2Ease of operation
If a complex spraying structure is used, then water distribution control is precise, but assembly is time-consuming and labor-intensive
Solution Approach 1:
The spraying structure incorporates adjustable spraying plates that can be dynamically positioned and angled to control water distribution. This dynamic adjustment capability provides precise water distribution control without requiring complex fixed structures, simplifying assembly while maintaining operational flexibility.
3Manufacturing precision
If water spraying is not adjustable, then the spraying system is simple, but water distribution is uneven and cannot be optimized for different brushing areas
Solution Approach 1:
The spraying system uses separate front and rear spraying plates with independent adjustment capabilities, allowing each spraying zone to be optimized for its specific area. This local quality approach ensures uniform water distribution in each zone while maintaining overall system simplicity through modular, independent control of each spraying region.
