Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If the roller brush continuously contacts the pool surface to clean contaminants, then the cleaning effectiveness is maintained, but contaminants accumulate on the roller brush over time, reducing its cleaning effect and service life
Solution Approach 1:
The roller brush cleaning structure enables the roller brush to clean itself automatically during the pool cleaning operation. The cleaning teeth and auxiliary brush form a self-service mechanism that removes accumulated contaminants from the roller brush surface without requiring external intervention, thus maintaining cleaning effectiveness while extending service life
Solution Approach 2:
The cleaning structure performs preliminary cleaning action on the roller brush before contaminants can significantly degrade its performance. By continuously removing contaminants during operation, the system prevents accumulation that would otherwise lead to reduced cleaning effect and shortened service life
2Productivity
If the roller brush rotates to sweep contaminants into the robot, then contaminants are collected, but some contaminants adhere to the roller brush, increasing accumulation over time
Solution Approach 1:
The cleaning teeth and auxiliary brush extract contaminants that have adhered to the roller brush surface. This extraction mechanism separates the harmful adhered contaminants from the roller brush, allowing continuous effective operation without degradation from contaminant accumulation
Solution Approach 2:
The cleaning teeth and auxiliary brush act as intermediary elements between the roller brush and the contaminants. These intermediaries facilitate the removal of adhered contaminants by providing a mechanical interface that scrapes and lifts contaminants off the roller brush surface during rotation
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The roller brush cleaning structure effectively removes contaminants from the roller brush, maintaining cleaning effectiveness and prolonging the service life by preventing contaminant accumulation, thus ensuring consistent pool cleaning performance.
Implementation Method 1
the roller brush is rotatably arranged on the cleaning body and is configured to clean contaminants on a surface of the pool
Implementation Method 2
the cleaning blade assembly is detachably arranged on an outer periphery of the mounting cylinder, and at least part of the cleaning blade assembly is in contact with the roller brush cleaning structure
Implementation Method 3
when the pool cleaning robot inhales water, the contaminants may be carried by the water into the pool cleaning robot

AI summary
One or more embodiments of the present disclosure provide a pool cleaning robot with a roller brush cleaning structure, including a cleaning body, a roller brush and a roller brush cleaning structure. The cleaning body is configured to clean contaminants in a pool; the roller brush is rotatably arranged on the cleaning body and is configured to clean contaminants on a surface of the pool; and the roller brush cleaning structure is arranged on the cleaning body, and is in contact with at least part of the roller brush, to remove contaminants adhering to the roller brush. During rolling of the roller brush, the residual contaminants on the roller brush are cleaned by the roller brush cleaning structure, so as to clean the roller brush, thereby avoiding adverse effects on a cleaning effect of the roller brush, and also avoiding the accumulation of contaminants on the roller brush over time, to have an adverse effect on the service life of the roller brush.
