Background
In the related art, a vacuum cleaner such as a vacuum cleaner is a home appliance that sucks foreign substances such as dust and hair to achieve a cleaning effect by generating a negative pressure. The performance of a vacuum cleaner depends mainly on two factors: dust removal capacity and noise, both of which are closely related to the air duct of the floor brush. The dust removing capacity is determined by the suction force generated by the dust collector host, but on the premise that the dust collector host is determined, the air duct structure of the floor brush, such as the effective area of the air inlet of the floor brush, the ground clearance and the like, determines the speed distribution and the pressure distribution inside the floor brush when the air flow enters the floor brush, and further influences the dust removing effect. The noise sources of the dust collector are mainly a main machine and a floor brush. The main machine generates noise due to high-speed operation and mechanical vibration of an internal motor, and the noise of the floor brush is mainly pneumatic noise generated by high-speed flow of air flow and is directly influenced by an air duct of the floor brush.

The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood in specific cases to those skilled in the art.
A cleaner floor brush 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1 to 4. Among them, the cleaner floor brush 100 can be used for a cleaner, such as a vacuum cleaner, etc.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, a cleaner floor brush 100 according to an embodiment of a first aspect of the present invention includes: a body 1 and a front dust collecting bar 2.
Specifically, the body 1 defines an air duct 11 therein, a bottom plate 12 of the body 1 is provided with a suction port communicating with the air duct 11, and the rear side of the body 1 is provided with an exhaust port 13. When the body 1 is covered on a surface to be cleaned (e.g., a carpet, a floor, a sofa, etc.), an airtight space is formed between the air duct 11 and the surface to be cleaned. Wherein the exhaust port 13 may be connected to a connecting pipe, such as a hose (not shown), for conveying the surface to be cleaned to a dust collecting part, such as a dirt cup, in the cleaner.
The front dust collecting bar 2 is provided at the front end of the body 1 to support the cleaner floor brush 100 on a surface to be cleaned and to isolate the air duct 11 from the surface to be cleaned. The front dust bar 2 is provided with a plurality of (e.g., six, eight, etc.) front air inlets 21 communicating with the air duct 11, and the front dust bar 2 is inclined with respect to a normal direction of a surface to be cleaned. The air flow can enter the dust collector floor brush 100 through the front air inlet 21, and can be effectively accelerated when passing through the front air inlet 21, thereby being convenient for sucking the objects to be cleaned into the air duct 11.
Here, it is to be noted that, in the description of the present invention, the meaning of "a plurality" is two or more unless otherwise specified. In addition, the "normal line of the surface to be cleaned" refers to a line perpendicular to the surface to be cleaned.
Wherein the front dust bar 2 may be inclined toward a direction close to the center of the cleaner brush 100 with respect to a normal direction of the surface to be cleaned, or may be inclined toward a direction away from the center of the cleaner brush 100 with respect to the normal direction of the surface to be cleaned.
For example, referring to fig. 3 and 4, the front dust collecting bar 2 is inclined toward a direction close to the center of the cleaner floor brush 100 with respect to a normal direction of a surface to be cleaned, that is, the front dust collecting bar 2 may be installed obliquely into the cleaner floor brush 100, that is, toward the air passage 11, in a direction in which the air current flows. Therefore, the front dust collecting strips 2 can guide the airflow entering the front air inlet 21, and meanwhile, compared with the traditional installation mode that the front dust collecting strips 2 are parallel to the normal of the surface to be cleaned, the front dust collecting strips 2 are obliquely installed relative to the normal of the surface to be cleaned, so that the included angle between the front dust collecting strips 2 and the top of the air channel 11 is reduced, the eddy stagnation area formed at the included angle due to the fact that the area of the airflow entering the air channel 11 is sharply enlarged is reduced, and further noise is reduced.
In addition, the front dust collecting strip 2 is obliquely installed relative to the normal direction of the surface to be cleaned, so that a part of the air flow entering the dust collector floor brush 100 from the front air inlet 21 obliquely impacts the surface to be cleaned, the object to be cleaned on the surface to be cleaned is more easily rolled up, the speed direction of the part of the air flow reflected by the surface to be cleaned is obliquely upward, the air flow can directly enter the air outlet 13, the impact of the air duct 11 on the air flow is reduced, the noise is further reduced, and under the condition that the thickness of the front dust collecting strip 2 is consistent, the front dust collecting strip 2 is obliquely installed relative to the normal direction of the surface to be cleaned, the contact area between the front dust collecting strip 2 and the surface to be cleaned can be effectively increased, the sealing performance between the air duct 11 and the surface to be cleaned is improved when the dust collector floor brush 100 works, and the dust removing capacity of the dust collector floor brush 100 is further.
Alternatively, the longitudinal section of the front air inlet 21 may be formed in a rectangular shape, a square shape, a trapezoidal shape, or the like, and is simple in structure and easy to process.
For example, when the cleaner is in operation, the body 1 of the cleaner floor brush 100 is covered on a surface to be cleaned, an air flow can enter the cleaner floor brush 100 from the front air inlet 21, and dust and hair on the surface to be cleaned are sucked into a dust cup of the cleaner along with the air flow.
Alternatively, the front dust bars 2 may be slats made of plastic or plastic wool, but are not limited thereto.
According to the dust collector floor brush 100 of the embodiment of the invention, the air duct 11 of the dust collector floor brush 100 is optimized by obliquely arranging the front dust collecting strips 2 relative to the normal direction of the surface to be cleaned, the airflow flowing state in the dust collector floor brush 100 is improved, the dust removing capability of the dust collector floor brush 100 is effectively improved, and the noise of the dust collector floor brush 100 is reduced. In addition, set up gyro wheel, fan or set up the amortization chamber on the body with traditional in the dust catcher scrubbing brush, fill the scheme of making an uproar of falling of inhaling the sound medium and compare, the dust catcher scrubbing brush 100 in this scheme simple structure and with low costs.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the angle α between the front dust collecting bars 2 and the normal direction of the surface to be cleaned satisfies 30 ° ≦ α ≦ 60 °, specific values thereof may be adjusted and designed according to specific specification of the dust collector floor brush 100, for example, α may further satisfy α ≦ 45 °, α ≦ 30 °, or α ≦ 60 °.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the distance a between the upper end of the front air inlet 21 and the bottom plate 12 satisfies: a is more than or equal to 3 mm. The specific numerical values can be adjusted and designed according to the specific specification and model of the dust collector floor brush 100, for example, a can further satisfy: a 3mm or a 5 mm. Therefore, the distance between the upper end of the front air inlet 21 and the bottom plate 12 can be effectively controlled, and the flow guiding effect of the front dust collecting strip 2 is ensured.
Further, at least one side of the body 1 is provided with a side air inlet 14 communicating with the air duct 11. That is, the side air inlet 14 communicating with the air duct 11 may be provided on either one of the left and right sides of the body 1, or the side air inlet 14 communicating with the air duct 11 may be provided on both the left and right sides of the body 1. For example, referring to fig. 1 and 2, the left and right sides of the body 1 are provided with one side intake port 14, respectively. Of course, it will be understood that the left and right sides of the body 1 may be provided with a plurality of side intake ports 14, respectively. Thus, airflow can enter the cleaner brush 100 from the side intake opening 14. For convenience of description, in the following description of the present invention, the air flow entering the cleaner brush 100 from the front air inlet 21 will be referred to as "forward air flow", and the air flow entering the cleaner brush 100 from the side air inlet 14 will be referred to as "side air flow".
Alternatively, the longitudinal cross section of the side intake opening 14 may be formed in a square, or trapezoid shape, but is not limited thereto.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the plurality of front air ports 21 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the central symmetry plane of the body 1, and the distances between the adjacent front air ports 21 are not equal. For example, among the plurality of front air ports 21 located on the same side of the central symmetry plane, the distances between the adjacent front air ports 21 are not equal. Specifically, the distance between the adjacent front air ports 21 gradually decreases in the direction toward the central symmetry plane.
For example, in the example of fig. 1, the plurality of front air ports 21 on the right side of the central symmetry plane gradually decrease in distance between adjacent front air ports 21 in a direction toward the central symmetry plane (e.g., in a direction from right to left in fig. 1). This increases the flow area of the airflow entering from the side intake port 14, i.e., the side airflow, and reduces the flow velocity of the side airflow, thereby reducing noise. Since the cross-sectional area of the air duct 11 is larger closer to the central symmetry plane, by reducing the distance between the adjacent front air inlets 21 close to the central symmetry plane, the influence of the air flow entering from the front air inlet 21, i.e., the forward air flow, on the flow area of the air flow entering from the side air inlet 14, i.e., the lateral air flow, can be effectively reduced, thereby reducing the noise generated by the impact of the two air flows.
For example, in the example of fig. 1, six front air inlets 21 are provided on the front dust bar 2, wherein three front air inlets 21 are provided on the left side of the central symmetry plane, and three front air inlets 21 are provided on the right side of the central symmetry plane, which are symmetrical to the three front air inlets 21 about the central symmetry plane. Specifically, for convenience of description, the three front air ports 21 positioned on the right side of the central symmetry plane will be referred to as a first front air port 21, a second front air port 21, and a third front air port 21, respectively, wherein the first front air port 21 is adjacent to the central symmetry plane, the third front air port 21 is away from the central symmetry plane, and the second front air port 21 is positioned between the first front air port 21 and the third front air port 21. Wherein, the distance between the first front air inlet 21 and the second front air inlet 21 is d1, the distance between the second front air inlet 21 and the third front air inlet 21 is d2, and d1 and d2 satisfy: d1 < d 2.
Some according to the inventionIn the embodiment, the sum S1 of the areas of the plurality of front intake ports 21 satisfies: 200mm2≤S1≤400mm2. The specific value can be adjusted and designed according to the specific specification and model of the dust collector floor brush 100, which is not limited in the invention. For example, S1 may further satisfy: 200mm for S12、300mm2Or 400mm2And the like. Therefore, the area sum of the front air inlet 21 is moderate, and the noise of the dust collector floor brush 100 is effectively reduced on the premise of ensuring the dust removing capability of the dust collector floor brush 100.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the sum of the areas of the plurality of side intake openings 14, S2, satisfies: 100mm2≤S2≤300mm2. The specific value can be adjusted and designed according to the specific specification and model of the dust collector floor brush 100, which is not limited in the invention. For example, S2 may further satisfy: s2-100 mm2、200mm2Or 300mm2And the like. Therefore, the area sum of the side air inlet 14 is moderate, and the noise of the dust collector floor brush 100 is further reduced on the premise of ensuring the dust removing capability of the dust collector floor brush 100.
According to other embodiments of the present invention, the sum S1 of the areas of the plurality of front air openings 21 and the sum S2 of the areas of the side air openings 14 satisfy: 300mm2≤S1+S2≤500mm2. Therefore, the noise of the dust collector floor brush 100 can be reduced on the premise of ensuring the dust removing capability of the dust collector floor brush 100.
Specifically, the height of the side intake port 14 is smaller than the height of the front intake port 21, and the depth e of the side intake port 14 satisfies: e is more than or equal to 5 mm. The specific value can be adjusted and designed according to the specific specification and model of the dust collector floor brush 100, which is not limited in the invention. For example, e may further satisfy: e 5mm, 10mm, 15mm, or the like. Therefore, the lateral air flow can generate larger tangential force on the surface to be cleaned, the dust removal effect is improved, the forward air flow and the lateral air flow can be layered, the impact of the two air flows is reduced, and the noise of the dust collector floor brush 100 is further reduced.
Here, it should be noted that "the height of the side intake port 14" referred to in the present application means the distance between the upper end of the side intake port 14 and the surface to be cleaned, and "the height of the front intake port 21" means the distance between the upper end of the front intake port 21 and the surface to be cleaned.
Referring to fig. 3 in conjunction with fig. 4, the air chute 11 includes, according to some embodiments of the present invention: a front wall 111, a rear wall 112, two side walls 113 and a lower wall 114.
Wherein the front wall 111 is gradually increased in distance from the surface to be cleaned in the direction from the front to the rear and from both sides to the middle, and the exhaust port 13 is provided on the front wall 111. Therefore, the flow area of the airflow can be increased, the flow speed of the airflow is reduced, and the noise is effectively reduced. Alternatively, the front wall surface 111 may be formed as an arc surface, but is not limited thereto.
The cross section of the rear wall surface 112 is arc-shaped, and the upper end of the rear wall surface is in smooth transition with the front wall surface 111, and the exhaust port 13 is arranged on the rear wall surface 112 and in smooth transition with the rear wall surface 112. Accordingly, the side air flow can be moved close to the rear wall surface 112 and discharged out of the air outlet 13 along the rear wall surface 112, thereby reducing the flow resistance of the side air flow and reducing the noise of the cleaner floor brush 100.
The two side wall surfaces 113 are connected to both sides of the front wall surface 111 and the rear wall surface 112, respectively, and the lower wall surface 114 is connected to the exhaust port 13. Therefore, when the dust collector floor brush 100 works, an airtight space is conveniently formed between the air duct 11 and the surface to be cleaned, so that the dust removing effect of the dust collector floor brush 100 is improved.
Specifically, the lower wall surface 114 is formed into a curved surface, and an angle β between a tangent line of any point of the projection of the lower wall surface 114 on the central symmetry plane of the body 1 and the surface to be cleaned satisfies that β is not more than 45 degrees, the specific value of the tangent line can be adjusted according to the specific specification and model of the dust collector ground brush 100, and the invention is not particularly limited to this.
Specifically, the height h of the side wall surface 113 satisfies: h is less than or equal to 3 mm. For example, h may further satisfy: h 2mm, etc. Thereby, the expansion of the airflow flow area can be reduced, thereby further reducing noise.
Alternatively, the arc radius D of the arc transition between the rear wall surface 112 and the exhaust port 13 satisfies: d is more than or equal to 25 mm. Therefore, the transition between the rear wall surface 112 and the exhaust port 13 is smooth, the flow resistance of the air flow is effectively reduced, the impact force of the air flow is reduced, and the noise of the dust collector floor brush 100 is further reduced.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the cross-section of the exhaust port 13 is formed in an elliptical shape, a major axis of the elliptical shape being parallel to the base plate 12, and a minor axis of the elliptical shape being perpendicular to the base plate 12. From this, the circular arc surface radius that back wall 112 transited to gas vent 13 has further been increased, make the transition smooth, because the separation that turns round and bring when having reduced the side direction air current and getting into gas vent 13, and can be when guaranteeing great circular arc transition face, reduce the longitudinal length of gas vent 13, wall 114's inclination under the control, make wall 114's inclination less down, thereby preceding air current can directly get into gas vent 13, the impact of preceding air current to lower wall 114 has further been reduced, and then noise has further been reduced.
According to other embodiments of the present invention, the cross-section of the exhaust port 13 may also be formed in a circle or a polygon having more than four sides. Accordingly, the noise of the cleaner floor brush 100 can be reduced as well.
Furthermore, a rear dust collecting strip 3 is arranged on the body 1. Referring to fig. 2, a rear dust collection strip 3 may be provided at the front end of the base plate 12.

To verify the noise reduction performance of the vacuum cleaner floor brush 100 of the present embodiment, a hand board was specially made and compared with a vacuum cleaner floor brush 100 representing the level of the floor brush performance prevailing in the current market for noise and floor cleaning capability tests. The noise testing method refers to the standard IEC60704-1 testing specification of airborne noise emitted by household appliances and similar appliances, the positions of microphones are arranged by adopting a hemispherical point arrangement method, and the radius r is 1.5 m.
Through tests, the dust collector floor brush 100 of the embodiment of the invention has greatly reduced noise values in low frequency band (<200HZ) and medium and high frequency band (>800 HZ). The reason for the low-frequency noise value reduction is as follows: the oval exhaust port 13 and the rear wall surface 112 adopt large arc surfaces for smooth transition, so that the separation of airflow flow and the rear wall surface 112 is reduced, and large vortexes are reduced.
In addition, the arrangement of the front dust bars 2 obliquely with respect to the normal direction of the surface to be cleaned, the arrangement of the front air openings 21 and the lower wall surface 114, reduces impact noise. The reason for the high-band noise reduction is: the front dust collecting strips 2 are obliquely arranged relative to the normal direction of the surface to be cleaned, the flowing direction of partial forward airflow is obliquely upward, layering is formed between the partial forward airflow and the lateral airflow, and meanwhile, the interference of the forward airflow to the lateral airflow is reduced by the non-uniform distance arrangement mode between adjacent air inlets on one side of the central symmetry plane, so that small vortexes generated by airflow disturbance are reduced.
The dust removal capability test method refers to the standard IEC60312, and tests show that the dust removal capability, namely the dust removal efficiency, of the dust collector floor brush 100 is about 94.5%, while the dust removal efficiency of the dust collector floor brush 100 of the embodiment of the invention is about 96.5%, which is obviously improved because the side air inlets 14 enable air flow to have larger impact on the ground, and meanwhile, the front dust collection strips 2 are obliquely arranged relative to the normal direction of the surface to be cleaned, so that the sealing performance of the dust collector floor brush 100 in the moving process is improved, and the dust removal efficiency is also improved.
Experiments show that compared with the dust collector floor brush 100 which represents the common level of the performance of the dust collector floor brush in the current market, the noise is reduced by about 6dB, the dust removal capacity is improved by about two percentage points, the effect is obvious, and the repeated experiment results are stable.
According to the dust collector floor brush 100 provided by the embodiment of the invention, the air duct 11 of the dust collector floor brush 100 is optimized, the airflow flowing state in the dust collector floor brush 100 is improved, the dust removing capability of the dust collector floor brush 100 is effectively improved, the noise of the dust collector floor brush 100 is reduced, and the dust collector floor brush 100 is simple in structure and low in cost.
A vacuum cleaner according to an embodiment of the second aspect of the present invention includes: a machine body and a cleaner floor brush 100 according to the above-described embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, the cleaner floor brush 100 being communicated with the machine body through a connection pipe such as a hose.
