The present disclosure provides a cleaning device that may be a handheld cleaning device, such as a handheld cleaning appliance, a handheld vacuum cleaner, a handheld floor cleaning appliance, and the like, as is well known to those skilled in the art. The self-moving cleaning device can also be a self-moving cleaning device used for cleaning the working surfaces such as floors, sofas, carpets and the like which need cleaning, such as a sweeping robot, a mopping robot, a sweeping and mopping robot and the like. In embodiments where the cleaning apparatus of the present disclosure is a hand-held floor washer, a user may push the floor washer to move across the floor and clean a work surface with the floor brush assembly of the floor washer while performing a cleaning operation with the floor washer.
The cleaning device comprises a floor brush assembly, wherein the floor brush assembly comprises a floor brush shell, a rolling brush and a rolling brush cover. The cleaning device comprises a ground brush shell, a rolling brush, a cleaning device, a sewage bucket, a sewage suction port, a rolling brush, a working surface, a sewage suction port and a sewage suction port, wherein the ground brush shell is provided with the sewage suction port, the rolling brush is connected to the ground brush shell in a rotating mode, and the rolling brush is in contact with the working surface in the cleaning process of the cleaning device so as to clean the working surface.
Wherein, the rolling brush cover and the ground brush shell enclose a rolling brush cavity matched with the rolling brush. When the rolling brush rotates in the rolling brush cavity, dirt adsorbed on the surface of the rolling brush can be thrown to the inner wall of the rolling brush cover under the action of centrifugal force, so that the inner wall of the rolling brush cover is polluted. In order to clean the inner wall of the roll brush cover, the roll brush cover in the present disclosure is configured to be operable in a first position or a second position with respect to the floor brush housing. Specifically, when the rolling brush cover is positioned at the first position, a first contact area is formed between the rolling brush cover and the rolling brush; when the rolling brush cover is positioned at the second position, a second contact area is formed between the rolling brush cover and the rolling brush.
For example, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, when in the first position, a portion of the inner wall of the roller brush cover may be in contact engagement with the roller brush such that a first contact area therebetween is greater than zero; it is also possible that the inner wall of the roller brush cover is completely disengaged from the roller brush when in the first position, which results in a first contact area between the two of zero. The second contact area is far larger than the first contact area, that is, when the rolling brush cover is positioned at the second position, the whole inner wall or most of the inner wall of the rolling brush cover can be in contact fit with the rolling brush, so that the aim of cleaning the inner wall of the rolling brush cover through the rolling brush is fulfilled.
The rolling brush cover can work at a first position or a second position relative to the ground brush shell, and the rolling brush cover can enable the inner wall of the rolling brush cover to be in contact with the rolling brush when being located at the second position, so that the inner wall of the rolling brush cover is cleaned through the rolling brush, dirt is prevented from being remained on the inner wall of the rolling brush cover, manual cleaning of a user is avoided, the automation degree of cleaning equipment is improved, and user experience is optimized.
For ease of understanding, the cleaning apparatus of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to fig. 1 to 23 in conjunction with specific embodiments.
Example 1
Referring to fig. 1, the present embodiment provides a cleaning device, which may be a hand-held cleaning device, such as a hand-held cleaner, a hand-held floor washer, a hand-held cloth cleaner, etc., as is well known to those skilled in the art. The cleaning device comprises a main body 8, a hand-held part 9 and a floor brush assembly 10 connected below the main body. Specifically, the floor brush assembly 10 is rotatably connected to the machine body 8, so that the floor brush assembly 10 can be kept in contact with the working surface when the cleaning device is used for cleaning the working surface, thereby achieving the purpose of cleaning dirt on the working surface.
As shown in fig. 2 and 4, the floor brush assembly includes a floor brush housing 1, a roll brush 2, and a roll brush cover 3. The floor brush shell 1 is provided with a sewage suction port 6, and the sewage suction port 6 can be connected with a sewage bucket on the machine body through a sewage suction channel, so that the cleaning equipment can suck the sewage at the sewage suction port 6 into the sewage bucket. The roller brush 2 is rotatably connected to the floor brush housing 1 and is configured for cleaning a working surface. In use, the roller brush 2 rotates relative to the working surface, thereby achieving cleaning of the working surface.
Referring to fig. 4 and 5, a scraper 13 is provided on the floor brush housing 1 at a position above the dirt suction port 6, the scraper 13 being configured for an interference fit with the roller brush 2. Referring to the view direction of fig. 4, the rolling brush 2 can rotate in a counterclockwise direction during normal operation, so that the scraping plate 13 can scrape off dirt on the rolling brush 2 during the rotation of the rolling brush 2, and the scraped dirt is sucked by the negative pressure generated by the dirt suction port 6. The roller brush 2 rotates in a counter-clockwise direction during forward rotation so that the working surface can be cleaned, although in other application scenarios the roller brush 2 may also rotate in a counter-clockwise direction, i.e. the roller brush 2 rotates in a clockwise direction. For example, during self-cleaning of the cleaning device, the roller brush 2 may be self-cleaned by rotating in a forward direction and in a reverse direction.
It is noted here that the above-mentioned "counter-clockwise" is dependent on the direction of view of fig. 4, and that the particular roll brush is rotated counter-clockwise or clockwise, depending on the position between the viewer and the cleaning device. The clockwise and counterclockwise directions described in the present disclosure are not limitations on the rotational direction of the roll brush, but are merely for convenience in describing the principle of action of the cleaning apparatus of the present disclosure.
Referring to fig. 2 and 4, a roll brush cover 3 is mounted on the floor brush housing 1 and encloses a roll brush cavity with the floor brush housing 1, which is fitted with the roll brush 2. The roller brush cavity may have a shape adapted to the roller brush 2, and the roller brush 2 protrudes from a lower end opening of the roller brush cavity to be in contact with the working surface. The rolling brush 2 can be protected through the rolling brush cavity, and dirt can be prevented from being thrown out when the rolling brush 2 rotates. When the rolling brush 2 rotates in the rolling brush cavity, dirt adsorbed on the surface of the rolling brush can be thrown to the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 under the action of centrifugal force, so that the dirt is adhered to the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3, and bacteria are easily bred for a long time to generate peculiar smell. For cleaning the inner wall of the roll brush cover 3, the roll brush cover 3 in the present disclosure is configured to operate in a first position or a second position with respect to the floor brush housing 1.
Specifically, when the rolling brush cover 3 is located at the first position, as shown in fig. 2 and 4, a first contact area is provided between the rolling brush cover 3 and the rolling brush 2, wherein the first contact area is greater than or equal to zero. When the first contact area is equal to zero, the inner wall of the brush roller cover 3 is configured to be disengaged from the brush roller 2, which makes it possible to avoid that the brush roller cover 3 influences the rotation and cleaning of the brush roller 2 during normal cleaning operation or during self-cleaning. In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the inner wall of the roll brush cover 3 is in partial contact engagement with the roll brush 2, which results in a first contact area between the two that is greater than zero. For example, the rear end edge of the roll brush cover 3 may be in line contact with the roll brush 2, or a small portion of the rear end of the roll brush cover 3 may be fitted with the roll brush 2. The specific size of the first contact area depends on the specific shape of the roller brush cover 3 and also on the degree of fluffiness of the roller brush 2. The new rolling brush 2 has more fluffy bristles, and the first contact area is larger at the moment; after a period of use, the bristles of the rolling brush 2 are not fluffy, the diameter of the rolling brush 2 is reduced, and the first contact area is also reduced. In order to make the resistance to the roller brush 2 as small as possible when cleaning the floor, the first contact area does not exceed 20% of the area of the inner wall of the roller brush cover 3.
When the rolling brush cover 3 is located at the second position, as shown in fig. 3 and 5, a second contact area is formed between the rolling brush cover 3 and the rolling brush 2, wherein the second contact area is larger than the first contact area. In detail, the size of the second contact area depends on the size of the area of the inner wall of the roll brush cover 3, and when the roll brush cover 3 is located at the second position, the inner wall of the roll brush cover 3 is almost completely contact-fitted with the roll brush 2. The rolling brush 2 can rub the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 at the second position when rotating, so that dirt on the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 is cleaned, the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 is cleaned through the rolling brush 2, the rolling brush cover 3 is prevented from being manually cleaned by a user, and dirt is prevented from being remained on the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3. In order to enable the inner wall of the roller brush cover 3 to be cleaned sufficiently, in the second position, the second contact area of the roller brush cover 3 and the roller brush 2 is not smaller than 90% of the area of the inner wall of the roller brush cover 3, and optimally, the inner wall of the roller brush cover 3 and the roller brush 2 are in full contact, and the second contact area is 100% of the area of the inner wall of the roller brush cover 3.
The rolling brush cover 3 can work at a first position or a second position relative to the ground brush shell 1, and the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 can be in contact fit with the rolling brush 2 when the rolling brush cover 3 is positioned at the second position, so that the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 is cleaned through the rolling brush 2. The automatic degree of the cleaning equipment is improved, a user does not need to manually clean the inner wall of the rolling brush cover, and user experience is optimized.
The roll brush cover 3 of the present disclosure may be configured to move in a straight line direction, for example, in a horizontal direction, a vertical direction, or other directions. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 8, the roll brush cover 3 is configured to be mounted on the floor brush housing 1 by a guide mechanism and to move between a first position and a second position along an arc-shaped movement locus. The roll brush cover 3 may be mounted with the floor brush housing 1 by a guide mechanism, and the guide mechanism is guided by the movement of the roll brush cover 3 such that the roll brush cover 3 may move in the extending direction of the guide mechanism. In this embodiment, the guide mechanism is configured to be arc-shaped to move the roll brush cover 3 between the first position and the second position along the arc-shaped movement locus.
The adoption of the arc-shaped movement track is beneficial to the adhesion of the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 and the rolling brush 2, because the rolling brush 2 is a rolling body and has a cylindrical or barrel-shaped circumferential surface. The inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 can be attached to the outer peripheral surface of the rolling brush 2 as much as possible by adopting the movement mode of the arc movement track, so that the inner wall of the whole rolling brush cover 3 is cleaned as much as possible, and particularly the inner wall which is easy to be adhered to dirt is cleaned.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to fig. 4 and 5, a liquid discharging assembly 11 is provided on the floor brush housing 1, the liquid discharging assembly 11 being configured to supply cleaning medium to the rolling brush 2, which allows the cleaning apparatus to wet-drag a work surface when performing a cleaning operation, for example, to supply cleaning medium to the rolling brush 2 when performing a self-cleaning operation, so as to self-clean the rolling brush 2. The cleaning medium may be clear water, or may be a disinfectant liquid configured to an appropriate concentration, etc., which is not limited by the present disclosure.
Referring to fig. 5 to 7, the liquid outlet assembly 11 is disposed on the floor brush housing 1 at a position above the dirt suction port 6, and includes a liquid outlet portion 111 and a drainage portion 112 extending toward the roller brush 2. The liquid outlet 111 is provided on the floor brush housing 1, and is configured to communicate with the fresh water tub through a pipe, which allows the liquid of the fresh water tub to flow out from the liquid outlet hole 1111 provided on the liquid outlet 111. The drainage portion 112 may be integrally formed with the liquid outlet portion 111 or may be connected to the liquid outlet portion 111 by means of a subsequent assembly, and the drainage portion 112 is configured to extend from the position of the liquid outlet portion 111 in the direction of the roller brush 2, which allows the liquid flowing out of the liquid outlet portion 111 to flow through the drainage portion 112 to the roller brush 2 to wet the roller brush 2. In further embodiments, the tapping assembly 11 may be arranged on the roll brush cover 3.
With continued reference to fig. 5-7, the roller brush cover 3 is provided with an extension portion 32, and the extension portion 32 is configured to extend from top to bottom to a position adjacent to the drainage portion 112, and encloses the liquid outlet 4 with the drainage portion 112. After the liquid flows out from the liquid outlet 111, the liquid is drained to the liquid outlet 4 by the drainage part 112, and flows out from the liquid outlet 4 to the roller brush 2. Specifically, the position of the rolling brush cover 3 corresponding to the drainage portion 112 is provided with an extension portion 32 extending toward the drainage portion 112, the extension portion 32 is located above the drainage portion 112 and has a predetermined interval from the drainage portion 112, and the extension portion and the drainage portion enclose a liquid outlet 4, so that the liquid flowing out through the liquid outlet 111 can flow along the drainage portion 112 and finally flow out to the surface of the rolling brush 2 through the liquid outlet 4.
The liquid outlet 4 is formed between the extension part 32 and the drainage part 112, and the size and the position of the liquid outlet 4 are controlled, so that the problems of blockage and the like caused by dirt being thrown onto the liquid outlet 111 and the drainage part 112 by the rolling brush 2 in the rotating process can be avoided.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to fig. 5, the drainage portion 112 is configured to extend obliquely downward, that is, the drainage portion 112 extends obliquely downward from a position connected to the liquid outlet portion 111 to a position adjacent to the roller brush 2, which not only facilitates the flow of liquid on the drainage portion 112, but also makes the opening direction of the liquid outlet 4 surrounded by the drainage portion 112 and the extension portion 32 obliquely downward, avoiding the dirt from being thrown into the liquid outlet 4. In addition, even if a small amount of dirt is thrown into or splashed into the liquid outlet 4, the small amount of dirt can be carried out during the flow of the liquid.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 7, the liquid outlet portion 111 may be a liquid outlet plate configured to extend along the axial direction of the rolling brush 2, on which a plurality of liquid outlet holes 1111 are spaced apart along the axial direction of the rolling brush 2, and the drainage portion 112 may also have a plate-like structure, and its shape is adapted to the liquid outlet plate. In the horizontal direction, the extension 32 extends in the axial direction of the roll brush 2; in the height direction, the extending portion 32 is inclined downward or vertically extended downward from the position of the roll brush cover 3 to a position adjacent to the liquid outlet plate with a space therebetween, and both enclose the liquid outlet 4, and the liquid outlet 4 extends along the axial direction of the roll brush 2, which allows the liquid flowing out of the plurality of liquid outlet holes to flow uniformly through the liquid outlet 4 to the roll brush 2 to wet the entire surface of the roll brush 2.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, with continued reference to fig. 7, the flow diverting ribs 1121 are provided on the flow guiding portion 112, the flow diverting ribs 1121 being configured to be spaced apart in the axial direction of the roller brush 2. A diverting rib 1121 is provided at each of the liquid outlet holes 1111 and at a position intermediate the two liquid outlet holes 1111. The plurality of flow dividing ribs 1121 distributed at intervals can enable the liquid to flow downwards along the flow dividing grooves formed by the two adjacent flow dividing ribs 1121, so that the liquid can flow downwards uniformly, and the rolling brush 2 can be fully contacted with the liquid, and a better cleaning effect can be achieved. The flow-dividing ribs 1121 allow the liquid to reach the entire axial surface of the roller brush 2 substantially uniformly, instead of being concentrated only at several points of the liquid outlet apertures 1111, i.e. the structural strength of the drainage portion 112 can be increased by providing the flow-dividing ribs 1121, which is not described in detail here, by the fact that the original "point wetting" is advanced to the present "line/surface wetting".
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the scraper 13 is disposed at the bottom of the drainage portion 112 and is configured to be in contact with the rolling brush 2, the upper surface of the scraper 13 is attached to the lower surface of the drainage portion 112, and the scraper 13 and the liquid outlet assembly 11 may form an integral element of the liquid outlet assembly 11. The integral elements of the liquid outlet assembly 11 are configured to be hinged to the floor brush housing 1, and referring to fig. 19, the upper end portion of the liquid outlet portion 111 is configured to be hinged to the floor brush housing 1, which makes it possible to deflect the liquid outlet portion 111, the drainage portion 112, and the scraper 13 as a whole with respect to the floor brush housing 1 at the hinge point. Wherein a further elastic means, which may be a spring 113, is arranged between the position of the liquid outlet 111 deviating from the hinge point and the floor brush housing 1, the scraper 13 on the integral element of the liquid outlet assembly 11 being configured to be preloaded against the roller brush 2 under the influence of the spring 113. That is, the spring 113 makes the integral element of the liquid outlet assembly 11 always have a trend of moving towards the rolling brush 2, so that the scraping plate 13 can always keep interference contact with the rolling brush 2, when the rolling brush 2 works for a long time or is worn or has reduced outer diameter due to other reasons, the scraping plate 13 can be always in contact with and matched with the outer surface of the rolling brush 2 under the action of the spring 113, and the function of the scraping plate 13 is ensured. In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the integral elements of the tapping assembly 11 may also be configured to translate relative to the floor brush housing 1. Referring to the view of fig. 4, the tapping assembly 11 may be configured for lateral translational movement relative to the floor brush housing 1, such that the blades 13 are always in contact with the outer surface of the roll brush 2. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 6, the position of the extension portion 32 surrounding the liquid outlet 4 with the drainage portion 112 is configured to be located substantially at the center position of the arc-shaped movement locus, and is configured to keep the distance from the drainage portion 112 within a predetermined range during the movement of the roll brush cover 3. Depending on factors such as process, the center position may be a position within the coverage area of the liquid outlet 4, and optimally, the position on the extension portion 32 surrounding the liquid outlet 4 with the drainage portion 112 is configured to be located at the center position of the arc-shaped movement track.
Because the rolling brush cover 3 moves on the ground brush shell 1 along the arc-shaped movement track under the action of the guide mechanism, and the position, which is used for enclosing the liquid outlet 4, on the extension part 32 is basically located at the circle center position of the arc-shaped movement track, the position, which is used for enclosing the liquid outlet 4, on the extension part 32 can be kept almost motionless or can move in the smallest possible range in the movement process of the rolling brush cover 3, so that the distance between the extension part 32 and the drainage part 112 can be kept in the preset range, namely the opening size of the liquid outlet 4 can be kept in the preset range in the movement process of the rolling brush cover 3, and the problems that the opening size of the liquid outlet 4 is overlarge or undersize due to the fact that dirt on the rolling brush 2 or dirt on other positions enters into the liquid outlet 4 to cause blockage or unsmooth water outlet and the like are avoided. From another angle, it may be understood that the other portion of the rolling brush cover 3 swings along an arc between the first position and the second position substantially around the position of the extension portion 32 corresponding to the liquid outlet 4.
It should be noted that, the "predetermined range" herein refers to an acceptable range, that is, the size of the opening of the liquid outlet 4 is too large, or the distance between the extension portion 32 and the drainage portion 112 is too large, which is easy to cause dirt to be thrown into or splashed onto the liquid outlet assembly 11; and the opening size of the liquid outlet 4 is too small, water can be blocked, so that water is not smooth. The acceptable range of the liquid outlet 4 can be designed according to the actual requirements of the person skilled in the art. When the rolling brush cover 3 swings along an arc line by taking the position of the liquid outlet 4 as the center of a circle, the extension part 32 which is very close to the liquid outlet 4 only generates tiny displacement and cannot move greatly.
To further reduce the impact of the roll brush cover 3 on the liquid outlet 4 during movement, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the side of the extension 32 facing the drain 112 is configured to be arc-shaped, and the size of the liquid outlet 4 enclosed between the extension 32 and the drain 112 is configured to remain substantially unchanged or only slightly changed during movement of the roll brush cover 3. The change of the size of the liquid outlet 4 before and after the movement of the roll brush cover 3 is not more than 1/2 of the original size of the liquid outlet 4 (i.e. the size of the liquid outlet 4 when the roll brush cover 3 is positioned at the first position).
Referring specifically to fig. 5 and 6, the surface of the extension 32 facing the drainage 112 is configured in an arc shape, the curved direction of which is opposite to the curved direction of the guide mechanism, so that when the extension 32 swings with the roller brush cover 3, the opposite curved surface counteracts such displacement, i.e. the distance between the roller brush cover 3 and the drainage 112 can still be kept constant, thereby keeping the size of the liquid outlet 4 almost unchanged. Thus, the rolling brush 2 is prevented from throwing dirt into the liquid outlet 4 to block the liquid outlet component 11, and the rolling brush cover 3 is prevented from interfering with the liquid outlet component 11 and the rolling brush 2 in the moving process. In addition, the size of the liquid outlet 4 is kept unchanged, so that liquid can uniformly and quantitatively flow to the rolling brush 2, and the cleaning effect on the working surface due to different liquid outlet amounts is avoided.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 10, the roll brush cover 3 includes a roll brush surface 31 for corresponding to the roll brush 2, and the roll brush surface 31 is an inner wall of the roll brush cover 3. When the brush roller cover 3 is moved to the second position, the brush roller 2 is in contact engagement with the brush roller surface 31 to clean the brush roller surface 31. In this second position, the roller brush 2 can be attached to at least a partial region of the roller brush surface 31. In the travelling direction of the cleaning device, the brush surface 31 has a front end portion extending in the direction of the front side of the brush 2 and a rear end portion extending in the direction of the rear side of the brush 2, so that the brush surface 31 can extend from the front side of the brush 2 to the rear side of the brush. Wherein the extension 32 is configured to extend to the rear end of the roll brush 2 and enclose the rear end portion of the roll brush face 31. That is, the side surface of the extension 32 facing the roll brush 2 is a part of the roll brush surface 31. The extension 32 separates the roller brush 2 from the liquid outlet assembly 11, which prevents the roller brush 2 from throwing dirt to the liquid outlet assembly 11 during rotation.
In addition, since the miniaturization of the apparatus is advanced, the distance between the rolling brush surface 31 and the rolling brush 2 is controlled within a predetermined range, and too large may affect the compactness between the structures, and too small may affect the assembly or performance between the components. Therefore, the extension portion 32 forms a part of the rolling brush surface 31, and the liquid outlet 4 is surrounded by the extension portion 32 and the drainage portion 112, so that the structure is compact, the gap caused by assembly is reduced as much as possible in the area facing the rolling brush 2, and the extension area of the rolling brush surface 31 is ensured.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 4, the rolling brush surface 31 is configured to have an intrados surface that is adapted to the shape of the rolling brush 2, that is, the curvature of the rolling brush surface 31 and the rolling brush 2 are the same or approximately the same. When the roller brush cover 3 is in the first position, the roller brush face 31 is configured to be concentric with the roller brush 2; in the second position, the roller brush surface 31 is configured to be concentric with the roller brush 2. Since the extension 32 of the rolling brush cover 3 is located at the center of the arc-shaped movement track, the rolling brush cover 3 swings at the center of the arc-shaped movement track, and the rolling brush cover can swing to a position where the rolling brush surface 31 is concentric with the rolling brush 2 or a position where the rolling brush surface is not concentric with the rolling brush 2. This arrangement ensures that in the second position the roller brush 2 is able to engage the roller brush surface 31 of the roller brush cover 3, thereby enabling cleaning of the inner wall of the roller brush cover 3, preferably with substantially all areas of the roller brush surface 31 being in contact with the roller brush 2. In the first position, the roller brush cover 3 is configured to be completely disengaged from the roller brush 2 so as not to interfere with the normal operation of the roller brush 2, ensuring zero friction between the roller brush face 31 and the roller brush 2, preventing rotational resistance due to friction.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, in the first position, the position of the extension 32 surrounding the liquid outlet 4 is configured to be in contact engagement with the roller brush 2. I.e. whether the brush cover 3 is in the first position or the second position, the respective position of the extension 32 is always in contact engagement with the brush 2, at which time the first contact area between the brush cover 3 and the brush 2 is larger than zero.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the opposite sides of the floor brush housing 1 are provided with carrying brackets 12. As shown in fig. 8 and 13, the carrying brackets 12 are provided in two, the two carrying brackets 12 are provided on opposite sides of the floor brush housing 1, and the carrying brackets 12 extend forward from the front side position of the floor brush housing 1 for mounting the roll brush cover 3. Opposite ends of the rolling brush cover 3 can be arranged on bearing brackets 12 on corresponding sides through guide mechanisms, and the rolling brush cover and the ground brush shell 1 jointly enclose a rolling brush cavity.
Referring to fig. 12 and 14, the guide mechanism includes a guide groove 121 provided on the bearing bracket 12, and a guide block provided at a corresponding position of the roll brush cover 3 and engaged with the guide groove 121, the guide block and the guide groove 121 each being configured to be arc-shaped. The guide blocks may be provided at opposite end positions of the upper end region of the roll brush cover 3 and fitted with the guide grooves 121, thereby achieving the installation between the roll brush cover 3 and the ground brush housing 1. In addition, under the guiding action of the guide blocks and the guide grooves 121, the rolling brush cover 3 can move between a first position and a second position relative to the ground brush shell 1 along the arc-shaped movement track. That is, the guide block having an arc-shaped structure is guide-fitted with the guide groove 121 having an arc-shaped structure, which limits the moving direction and the moving range of the roll brush cover 3.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the roll brush cover 3 is configured to be removably mounted on the floor brush housing 1, and the guide blocks are the latches 33 disposed at opposite sides of the roll brush cover 3, and the latches 33 are configured to cooperatively slide in the guide grooves 121. Referring to the view direction of fig. 11, when the roll brush cover 3 is located at the first position, the locker 33 is located at the rightmost side of the guide groove 121; in the second position, the catch 33 is located at the leftmost side of the guide groove 121. The guide groove 121 and the lock catch 33 are configured to be arc-shaped, and the radian of the guide groove and the lock catch is the same, and the position of the liquid outlet 4 is taken as the center of a circle.
Of course, it is possible for a person skilled in the art to use other guide blocks than the lock catch 33 as the guide means, and the guide means may be, for example, other flange structures separately provided on the roll brush cover 3, in which case the lock catch 33 is no longer slid in cooperation with the guide groove 121, only for use in disassembly. In order to realize the detachable connection of the rolling brush cover 3, as shown in fig. 15, a lock catch 33 is arranged on the rolling brush cover 3 through an elastic device 34, and the lock catch 33 is kept at a position extending out of the end of the rolling brush cover 3 under the action of the elastic device 34; and the lock catch 33 is retracted into the roll brush cover 3 against the elastic force of the elastic device 34 after being acted on by the external force. The two sides of the rolling brush cover 3 are respectively provided with a lock catch 33, the two lock catches 33 are respectively provided with an elastic device 34 in a matched mode, the elastic device 34 is not particularly limited in the disclosure, all elastic pieces capable of achieving the functions can be used, and the elastic device 34 can be a torsion spring, a pressure spring, a tension spring, a leaf spring and the like. In the absence of external force, the lock catch 33 is always kept in the guide groove 121 under the elastic force of the elastic device 34; only when the compression spring is further compressed by the external force, the lock catch 33 can retract into the roll brush cover 3 and be separated from the guide groove 121. In order to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the rolling brush cover 3, a buckle hand can be arranged on the rolling brush cover 3, and a user drives the lock catch 33 to move through the buckle hand, so that the rolling brush cover 3 is disassembled and assembled.
With particular reference to fig. 15, two clasps 35 are provided on the roll brush cover 3, the clasps 35 being configured to move in an opposite or opposite manner with respect to the roll brush cover 3. The two clasps 35 compress the respective elastic means 34 when subjected to an external force. When the roller brush cover 3 needs to be detached from the ground brush housing 1, the user can pinch the two buckles 35 and apply force in the direction of approaching each other, the two buckles 35 respectively compress the corresponding elastic devices 34 to enable the corresponding buckles 33 to move to the detachment guide grooves 121, and at the moment, the user can detach the roller brush cover 3 from the ground brush housing 1 only by lifting the buckles 35 with upward force.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to fig. 12 and 16, the outer side wall of the latch 33 is configured to be an inclined surface 331 inclined outwards from bottom to top, and the end surface of the carrying bracket 12 is provided with a guide surface 122 corresponding to the first position of the roll brush cover 3, and the guide surface 122 is configured to cooperate with the inclined surface 331 of the outer side wall of the latch 33 when the roll brush cover 3 is in the first position, so as to push the latch 33 to move into the guide groove 121 toward the inside of the roll brush cover 3 when the roll brush cover 3 is pressed down.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 9 and 11, the outer side wall of the lock catch 33 is an inclined surface 331, and the inclined surface is configured to incline gradually from bottom to top to outside, the bearing bracket 12 has a guide surface 122 disposed in cooperation with the inclined surface 331, and the guide surface 122 is disposed at an upper edge of an inner wall of the bearing bracket 12. The slope of the guide surface 122 may or may not coincide with the slope of the inclined surface 331. With continued reference to fig. 11, the guide surface 122 is located above the guide groove 121 and has a length shorter than that of the guide groove 121, corresponding to the first position of the roll brush cover 3.
Referring to fig. 16, when the roll brush cover 3 is installed, the user may hold the roll brush cover 3 down, and the user only needs to align the locker 33 with the guide surface 122 such that the inclined surface 331 of the locker 33 is located directly above the guide surface 122. After downward pressure is applied, the inclined surface 331 can retract into the rolling brush cover 3 against the elastic force of the elastic device 34 under the extrusion of the guide surface 122, and at this time, the lock catch 33 is extruded into the rolling brush cover 3, so that the rolling brush cover 3 can continue to move downward relative to the ground brush housing 1 until the lock catch 33 moves to the corresponding position of the guide groove 121, and the lock catch 33 bounces back to the original position under the action of elastic force and is clamped in the guide groove 121.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the guide surface 122 is provided only in the first position corresponding to the roll brush cover 3, which makes it necessary that the roll brush cover 3 is in the first position when mounted to the floor brush housing 1 under the limit action of the guide surface 122. When the roll brush cover 3 is mounted at other positions, the inclined surface 331 cannot be aligned with the guide surface 122, and when the roll brush cover 3 is pressed downward, the inclined surface 331 cannot be pushed to move into the roll brush cover 3.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to fig. 12, 13 and 16, the bearing bracket 12 is provided with a stop surface 1211, and the stop surface 1211 may be a plane; correspondingly, the bottom of the lock catch is provided with a stop matching surface 332, and the stop matching surface 332 can also be a plane. At the time of installation, if the roll brush cover 3 is at other positions than the first position, the stop matching surface 332 on the lock catch 33 will match with the stop surface 1211 on the bearing bracket 12, so that the installation cannot be realized, which ensures that the user can only install the roll brush cover 3 at the first position, and avoids the extrusion of the roll brush 2 caused by transitional force application during the installation at other positions.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to fig. 12, 14 and 17, opposite sides of the roll brush cover 3 are configured to be carried on a first end face of the top of the carrying bracket 12. This makes round brush lid 3 except that connect on bearing bracket 12 inner wall through guiding mechanism, and the up end of bearing bracket 12 can also support round brush lid 3, guarantees the homogeneity of atress.
Referring to fig. 14, the first end surface of the carrying bracket 12 has a horizontal portion 123 adjacent to the floor brush housing 1, and a first arc portion 124 extending toward the front side of the floor brush housing 1, the horizontal portion 123 being in transitional connection with the first arc portion 124. Both sides of the roll brush cover 3 are configured in a shape adapted to the horizontal portion 123 and the first arc-shaped portion 124, and as shown in fig. 9, the roll brush cover 3 has a horizontal mating surface 36 mated with the horizontal portion 123 and also has an arc-shaped mating surface 37 mated with the first arc-shaped portion 124. This causes the horizontal mating surface 36 of the roll brush cover 3 to mate with the horizontal portion 123 of the carrier bracket 12 and the arcuate mating surface 37 to mate with the first arcuate portion 124 when in the first position, thereby effecting support of the roll brush cover 3 by the carrier bracket. The rolling brush cover 3 and the bearing bracket 12 adopt the matching structure, so that the compactness and consistency among the structures can be ensured, and the overall aesthetic degree of the floor brush assembly is improved. It should be noted that, as shown in fig. 10, the rolling brush cover 3 further includes two arc segments with the same rolling brush arc degree, which are respectively located at two opposite sides of the rolling brush cover 3; the two arc segments are located at one end of the rolling brush cover 3 far away from the ground brush shell 1, the two arc segments are connected with the arc matching surface 37, and when the rolling brush cover 3 is located at the second position, the two arc segments are attached to the rolling brush in arc degree.
Wherein the first arc-shaped portion 124 is configured to support the corresponding position of the roll brush cover 3 all the time during the movement of the roll brush cover 3. As shown in fig. 17, the radian of the first arc-shaped portion 124 may be configured to be matched with the movement track of the rolling brush cover 3, and in the process that the rolling brush cover 3 moves from the first position to the second position, since the movement track of the rolling brush cover 3 is arc-shaped, the horizontal matching surface 36 of the rolling brush cover 3 is gradually or directly separated from the horizontal portion 123 of the bearing bracket 12, but the arc-shaped matching surface 37 of the rolling brush cover is always matched with the first arc-shaped portion 124, so that when the rolling brush cover 3 is located at the second position, the arc-shaped matching surface 37 can also be supported by the first arc-shaped portion 124, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the structure.
Specifically, when the roll brush cover 3 is in the first position, the horizontal mating surface 36 is supported on the horizontal portion 123, and the arcuate mating surface 37 is supported on the first arcuate portion 124. When the rolling brush cover 3 swings around the position of the extension portion 32 as a center of a circle, the arc-shaped matching surface 37 and the first arc-shaped portion 124 match and slide, and the horizontal matching surface 36 gradually breaks away from the horizontal portion 123 during the sliding process along with the rolling brush cover 3. When the rolling brush cover 3 is located at the second position, the arc-shaped matching surface 37 is still supported on the first arc-shaped portion 124, as shown in fig. 3 and 5, and the horizontal matching surface 36 is in a suspended and unsupported state. As shown in fig. 14, the arc-shaped matching surface 37 is consistent with the radian of the lock catch 33 and takes the position of the extension part 32 as the center of a circle, and the arc-shaped matching surface 37 always slides in a matching way with the first arc-shaped part 124 in the moving process of the rolling brush cover 3 to provide support for the rolling brush cover 3; the catch 33 also slides in the guide groove 121 in a mating manner throughout the movement of the brush roller cover 3, providing support for the brush roller cover 3.
As shown in fig. 12 and 14, the top of the bearing bracket 12 is further provided with a second end surface, and a second arc-shaped portion 125 is arranged on the second end surface corresponding to the horizontal portion 123; the corresponding position of the roll brush cover 3 forms an arc-shaped flange 38 cooperating with the second arc-shaped portion 125 downwards, and the arc-shaped flange 38 is configured to be supported by the second arc-shaped portion 125 all the time during the movement of the roll brush cover 3.
As shown in fig. 17, the second arcuate portion 125 and arcuate flange 38 each have an arc that is consistent with the first arcuate portion 124, which allows the arcuate flange 38 to be supported on the carrier 12 throughout its movement. Specifically, when the roll brush cover 3 is in the first position, the arc-shaped flange 38 is supported on the second arc-shaped portion 125; during the movement of the roll brush cover 3, the arc-shaped flange 38 is matched with the second arc-shaped part 125 to slide, and the arc-shaped flange 38 is always matched with the second arc-shaped part 125 during the sliding process because the radian of the first arc-shaped part 124 and the second arc-shaped part 125 are consistent and are partially connected together. In addition, since the horizontal mating surface 36 is suspended and unsupported in the second position, the second arc portion 125 is disposed at the position of the horizontal portion 123, and the arc flange 38 is disposed at the position of the horizontal mating surface 36, so that the position of the horizontal mating surface 36 is always supported.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the second arc portion 125 is disposed on the bearing bracket 12 at a position located inside the horizontal portion 123, which not only improves the aesthetic appearance of the entire floor brush. When the rolling brush cover 3 is located at the second position, the tilted horizontal matching surface 36 is also beneficial to the user to observe the current state of the rolling brush cover 3, so that the use experience of the user is improved.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the cleaning device further comprises a movement assembly 5, by means of which movement assembly 5 the roll brush cover 3 can be moved between a first position and a second position. The motion assembly 5 of the present disclosure may take the form of a motion assembly known to those skilled in the art. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 9, the movement assembly 5 includes a driving mechanism 51, a pushing part 52, and a connection piece 53. The pushing portion 52 is configured to be controlled by the driving mechanism 51 to move in a straight line to move the roll brush cover 3 between the first position and the second position. The driving mechanism 51 of the present disclosure may be a steering engine fixed in the ground brush housing 1, and the steering engine converts the rotational motion into the linear motion of the pushing part 52 through the connecting piece 53 during the rotation. The push portion 52 is configured to extend forward when the steering engine is rotated in a first direction, and the push portion 52 is configured to retract rearward when the steering engine is rotated in a second direction, for example.
In addition to the above disclosure, the driving mechanism 51 may be other driving structures having a driving function, such as an electric driving structure or a mechanical driving structure, or may apply an external force to the pushing portion 52 by a manual driving method, a foot stepping method, or the like, so that the pushing portion 52 moves in a straight line. The driving mechanism 51 may be fixed on the floor brush housing 1 and may also be fixed on the roll brush cover 3, and the specific structure and the fixing position of the driving mechanism 51 are not limited in the present disclosure.
Referring to fig. 11, the roll brush cover 3 is provided with a fitting portion in driving connection with the pushing portion 52. When the pushing part 52 is pushed out forwards along the axial direction, the matching part receives forward pushing force, and the rolling brush cover 3 is pushed to the second position; when the pushing portion 52 moves rearward in the axial direction, the engaging portion is subjected to a rearward pulling force, and the roll brush cover 3 is pulled back to the first position.
Specifically, the pushing portion 52 is provided with an engagement groove 521. The pushing portion 52 may be a single-headed cylindrical structure or a multi-headed fork structure, and in this embodiment, the pushing portion 52 is a double-headed fork structure, and the end side walls of the two prongs of the pushing portion 52 are respectively provided with a clamping groove 521. The engaging portion of the roll brush cover 3 is a downwardly open engaging wall 39, i.e., an opening is provided in the engaging wall 39, and the opening direction of the opening is configured to be directed downward. The cooperation of the pushing part 52 and the rolling brush cover 3 is an insertion structure, and two openings in the clamping wall 39 are arranged for being respectively matched with two fork heads of the pushing part 52. This allows the opening in the engagement wall 39 to fit with the engagement groove 521 when the roll brush cover 3 is mounted.
The front end portion of the engagement wall 39 is provided with an open groove, and both side walls of the open groove in the front-rear direction are respectively referred to as a front engagement surface 391 and a rear engagement surface. When the pushing part 52 is pushed out forwards, the front end of the pushing part 52 is contacted and matched with the front matching surface 391, the front matching surface 391 is pushed forwards, and the rolling brush cover 3 is pushed to the second position; when the pushing portion 52 is retracted rearward, the inner wall of the rear engagement surface engagement wall 39 of the open slot is brought into contact engagement with the engagement groove 521 and is pulled rearward, and the roll brush cover 3 is pulled back to the first position.
Because the pushing portion 52 needs to drive the rolling brush cover 3 to move along the arc track, for the structure of the linear motion and the arc motion, the size of the clamping groove 521 is selected to be larger than the thickness of the clamping wall 39, which provides a decoupling space for converting the linear motion into the arc motion, and avoids the clamping between the components caused by the different motion tracks of the two. Meanwhile, when the pushing portion 52 is pushed forward, the larger-sized engaging groove 521 can enable the end of the pushing portion 52 to move forward to the front pushing mating surface 391 and move backward to enable the groove wall of the engaging groove 521 to push the rear mating surface of the open groove, so as to drive the rolling brush cover 3 to reset.
In addition, in the above embodiment, it is described that the roll brush cover 3 needs to be mounted on the floor brush housing 1 in the first position, which is also to facilitate the engagement wall 39 thereof to be engaged with the engagement groove 521 on the pushing portion when the roll brush cover 3 is mounted. Of course, the pushing portion 52 of the moving assembly 5 must be kept at the first position to ensure that the engaging wall 39 can be accurately inserted into the engaging groove 521.
In a specific embodiment of the present disclosure, as the roller brush 2 is used, the degree of fluffiness of its bristles is reduced, and the diameter of the roller brush 2 is reduced. The extent to which the moving assembly 5 pushes the roll brush cover 3 may be varied in order to secure the effect of the roll brush 2 cleaning the roll brush cover 3. Specifically, the diameter of the rolling brush 2 of the present disclosure is about phi 56mm when new, and a gap of 2.5mm is provided between the rolling brush 2 and the rolling brush cover 3 (the gap between the rolling brush cover 3 and the rolling brush 2 is the largest); the diameter of the roll brush 2 used up to the maximum life was about phi 51mm, at which time there was a gap of 5mm between the roll brush 2 and the roll brush cover 3 (where the gap between the roll brush cover 3 and the roll brush 2 was the largest). In one example, the diameter of the inner wall of the roller brush cover 3 is chosen to be equal to the diameter of the roller brush 2 used for the maximum life, so that the inner wall of the roller brush cover 3 can still keep in contact with the roller brush 2 when the roller brush 2 is used for the maximum life, and the roller brush cover 3 is cleaned effectively. Of course, in other examples, the diameter of the inner wall of the brush roll 3 may also be chosen as the diameter of the completely new brush roll 2, or the diameter of the inner wall of the brush roll 3 may be in the range between the completely new brush roll 2 diameter and the diameter of the brush roll 2 used for the maximum life.
The new rolling brush 2 has a larger diameter, when the rolling brush cover 3 is positioned at the first position, enough clearance is needed to be ensured between the rolling brush cover 3 and the rolling brush 2 to ensure air flow, otherwise, the rolling brush drying is affected, bacteria are easy to breed, and peculiar smell is generated. The gap between the rolling brush 2 and the rolling brush cover 3 is not too large, the too large gap can cause the too long stroke of the pushing part 52, the accuracy of the pushing process is difficult to control, and if the pushing part 52 is lengthened, the strength of the moving assembly 5 is reduced; the rotating angle of the rolling brush cover 3 is increased, so that the size of the liquid outlet 4 is changed excessively, and dirt is easy to fall into the liquid outlet 4 to cause clamping stagnation. Preferably, the rotation angle of the front rolling brush cover 3 is set to 11 degrees, and the rolling brush 2 and the rolling brush cover 3 have proper gaps; when the roll brush cover 3 is moved to the second position, the roll brush cover 3 can be just attached to the roll brush 2 with the diameter phi of 51mm, so that the roll brush cover 3 can be cleaned before the roll brush 2 fails.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the second position of the roll brush cover 3 may be provided with a plurality, for example when the new roll brush 2 has a larger diameter, at which time the movement assembly 5 may push the roll brush cover 3 forward by a smaller displacement so that the roll brush cover 3 is in contact engagement with the new roll brush 2. When the roller brush 2 is used for a period of time and the diameter of the roller brush is reduced, the moving assembly 5 can push the roller brush cover 3 to move forwards for relatively large displacement, so that the roller brush cover 3 is in contact fit with the roller brush 2.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the cleaning device is in a self-cleaning operation when the roll brush cover 3 is in the second position. The cleaning device often has a self-cleaning mode, and after the cleaning work is completed, the cleaning device can be placed on a matched base station, and the rolling brush 2 can rotate on the base station according to a preset program, so that the cleaning of the rolling brush 2 is realized. When the rolling brush cover 3 is located at the second position, the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 can be attached to the rolling brush 2, and at the moment, the cleaning equipment is in self-cleaning operation, which means that the rolling brush 2 can rotate in the interference fit state of the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3, and dirt on the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 is cleaned. Therefore, the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 is cleaned through the rolling brush 2 when the rolling brush 2 is self-cleaned, the automation degree of cleaning equipment is improved, and the user experience is optimized. The present embodiment also provides a floor brush assembly 10, the floor brush assembly 10 comprising a floor brush housing 1, a roll brush 2 and a roll brush cover 3. The rolling brush 2 is rotatably connected to the ground brush housing 1, the rolling brush 2 can absorb dirt on a working surface during working, and the rolling brush cover 3 and the ground brush housing 1 enclose a rolling brush cavity matched with the rolling brush 2. When the rolling brush 2 rotates in the rolling brush cavity, dirt adsorbed on the surface of the rolling brush can be thrown to the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 under the action of centrifugal force, so that the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 is polluted. For cleaning the inner wall of the roll brush cover 3, the roll brush cover 3 in the present disclosure is configured to operate in a first position and a second position with respect to the floor brush housing 1. Specifically, when the roll brush cover 3 is located at the first position, as shown in fig. 2, there is a first contact area between the roll brush cover 3 and the roll brush 2; when the rolling brush cover 3 is positioned at the second position, as shown in fig. 3, a second contact area is formed between the rolling brush cover 3 and the rolling brush 2; the first contact area is larger than or equal to zero, and the first contact area is smaller than the second contact area. This achieves that the inner wall of the roll brush cover 3 is cleaned by the roll brush 2.
The specific structure and the movement mode of the floor brush assembly are identical to those of the floor brush assembly described above, and are not repeated here.
Example two
The second embodiment provides a cleaning device, and the cleaning device provided in the second embodiment can also enable the position corresponding to the rolling brush 2 to move between the first position and the second position relative to the ground brush housing 1, and enable the inner wall of the ground brush housing to be in contact with and matched with the rolling brush 2 when the ground brush housing is located at the second position, so that the cleaning of the inner wall of the corresponding position through the rolling brush 2 is achieved.
Compared with the first embodiment, the rolling brush cover 3 in the second embodiment has a different overall structure and movement mode. In order to ensure brevity of text, this distinction point is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The other structure of the cleaning apparatus is identical to that of the first embodiment, and will not be explained here.
The roll brush cover 3 in the present embodiment includes a fixed portion and a movable portion configured to move between a first position and a second position; when the movable part is positioned at the first position, a first contact area is formed between the movable part and the rolling brush 2; when the movable part is positioned at the second position, a second contact area is formed between the movable part and the rolling brush 2; the first contact area is larger than or equal to zero, and the first contact area is smaller than the second contact area. Specifically, referring to fig. 18 and 19, the roll brush cover 3 includes a base 301 provided on the floor brush housing 1 and a movable cover 302 provided on the base 301. The seat 301 may be opposite to the extension 32 in the above embodiment, and may enclose the liquid outlet 4 with the liquid outlet assembly 11. The connection between the removable cover 302 and the base 301 includes, but is not limited to, an integral connection, a hinge, or a connection via a flexible member. The movable cover 302 is configured to move between a first position in which the movable cover 302 has a first contact area with the roller brush 2, and a second position in which the first contact area is zero or more. When the first contact area is equal to zero, the movable cover plate 302 is separated from the rolling brush 2; when the first contact area is larger than zero, the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 is in contact fit with the rolling brush 2. When in the second position, the movable cover plate 302 and the rolling brush 2 have a second contact area, wherein the second contact area is larger than the first contact area. In detail, the size of the second contact area depends on the size of the area of the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3, and when the rolling brush cover 3 is located at the second position, the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 is almost completely in contact with the rolling brush 2, that is, the movable cover plate 302 is pressed against the rolling brush 2 under the pushing action of the moving assembly 5.
The roll brush cover 3 further comprises a fixed cover plate 303 connected to the base 301, the fixed cover plate 303 is arranged on one side of the movable cover plate 302, which is away from the roll brush 2, and a gap 304 is formed between the fixed cover plate 303 and the movable cover plate 302. The movable cover plate 302 is formed with a hanging lug 305 on one side facing the fixed cover plate 303, and the hanging lug 305 is positioned at the gap 304. The hanging lugs 305 are provided with through holes through which tension springs (not shown) can connect the movable cover plate 302 with the floor brush housing 1.
In detail, one end of the tension spring is connected to the movable cover 302, and the other end is connected to the floor brush housing 1. The tension spring is used for providing a force which enables the movable cover plate 302 to move in a direction away from the rolling brush 2, so that the movable cover plate 302 can always have a trend away from the rolling brush 2, and the rolling brush 2 which rotates is not contacted with the movable cover plate 302 during the working process of the cleaning equipment. That is, when the flap 302 is not subjected to the pushing force from the moving assembly 5, the flap 302 can be kept at the first position all the time under the pulling force of the tension spring.
The movable cover plate 302 and the fixed cover plate 303 can be connected together by a tension spring, one end of the tension spring is connected with the hanging lugs 305 on the movable cover plate 302, and the other end of the tension spring can be fixed on the fixed cover plate 303. This also makes it possible for the flap 302 to always have a tendency to move away from the roller brush 2. That is, one end of the tension spring is fixed to the hanger 305, and the other end is only connected to any other fixing structure. The placement of the tension springs need not be limited to the size of the gap 304, which provides more room for selection and installation of tension springs.
The fixed cover 303 may be used to protect the movably disposed movable cover 302 or may serve as a carrier to which a tension spring is attached. In addition, the gap 304 formed between the stationary cover plate 303 and the movable cover plate 302 provides room for movement of the movable cover plate 302 between the first position and the second position.
The two hanging lugs 305 and the two tension springs can be respectively arranged, as shown in fig. 20, and two hanging lugs 305 are respectively arranged at two sides of the movable cover plate 302, so that the movable cover plate 302 can be more uniformly subjected to the tension force from the tension springs, and the whole movable cover plate 302 can stably move between the first position and the second position.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, with continued reference to fig. 18 and 20, the kinematic assembly 5 is configured to apply a force to the flap 302 that moves the flap 302 toward the roller brush 2 to drive the flap 302 to rotate relative to the base 301. Specifically, the motion assembly 5 is used to drive the movable cover 302 against the elastic restoring force from the tension spring and move from the first position to the second position. Specifically, the movement assembly 5 includes a driving mechanism 51 and a pushing portion 52, as shown in fig. 15, the pushing portion 52 is configured to push the flap 302 in a straight direction against the pulling force from the tension spring under the driving action of the driving mechanism 51, thereby moving from the first position to the second position; when the pushing portion 52 is retracted in the linear direction by the driving of the driving mechanism 51, the movable cover 302 moves from the second position back to the first position by the tension of the tension spring.
This achieves that the movable cover plate 302 is moved between the first position and the second position relative to the floor brush housing 1 by means of the movable cover plate 302, the tension springs co-acting with the movement assembly 5. When the movable cover plate 302 is located at the second position, the inner wall of the movable cover plate 302 can be in contact fit with the rolling brush 2, so that the inner wall of the movable cover plate 302 is cleaned through the rolling brush 2 when the rolling brush 2 is self-cleaned. The automatic degree of the cleaning equipment is improved, a user does not need to manually clean the inner wall of the rolling brush cover, and user experience is optimized.
Example III
A third embodiment provides a base station, such as a tray, applied to the cleaning apparatus of the above two embodiments, and the tray is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings for the sake of brevity. The cleaning apparatus is the cleaning apparatus described in the first embodiment or the second embodiment, and will not be explained here.
The tray of the present disclosure is used in conjunction with a cleaning device to form the cleaning system of the present disclosure. Referring to fig. 21 and 23, the cleaning apparatus may be placed on the tray 7 for charging, self-cleaning, etc. after the cleaning work is completed. The floor brush assembly 10 on the cleaning device can be placed completely on the tray 7, and the cleaning device can perform self-cleaning operation on the tray 7. Specifically, the tray 7 has a roll brush groove 71 and a wheel groove 72 thereon. The roll brush groove 71 is a groove structure at the front end of the tray 7, and is configured to accommodate the roll brush 2. The wheel groove 72 is located at the rear end of the tray 7, and has two left and right symmetrical wheels for respectively placing two ground brush wheels at the rear end of the ground brush assembly 10.
When the floor brush assembly 10 is placed on the tray 7, the rolling brush 2 is not attached to the inner wall of the rolling brush groove 71, but has a certain gap, so that the rolling brush 2 can freely rotate when performing self-cleaning operation. When the rolling brush 2 rotates, dirt adsorbed on the surface of the rolling brush 2 is thrown outwards, and in order to prevent the dirt from being thrown out of the tray 7, the height of the front end of the tray 7 needs to be designed. The roll brush 2 rotates forward and backward when self-cleaning is performed, and the direction of view in fig. 21 is referred to as counterclockwise rotation, and the direction of reverse rotation is referred to as clockwise rotation. When the rolling brush 2 rotates forward, dirt is thrown out along the forward rotation tangent line in fig. 21, when the rolling brush 2 rotates reversely, the dirt is thrown out along the reverse rotation tangent line in fig. 21, and the front end of the tray 7 is higher than the dirt throwing-out path in forward rotation and reverse rotation, so that the dirt is prevented from being thrown out of the tray 7.
Specifically, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a first arc surface 711 is provided at the bottom of the rolling brush groove 71, and a second arc surface 712 and a third arc surface 713 are formed at two sides of the rolling brush groove 71, respectively; the second cambered surface 712 is positioned at the front end of the first cambered surface 711 and is in transitional connection with the first cambered surface 711; the third cambered surface 713 is positioned at the rear end of the first cambered surface 711 and is in transitional connection with the first cambered surface 711. The first arc surface 711 is located at the bottom of the roller brush groove 71 and is configured to have a shape adapted to the roller brush 2, for example, in an arc shape or an approximately arc shape. The second arc surface 712 is connected to the first arc surface 711 and is configured to deviate from the first arc surface 711 in a direction away from the roll brush 2, i.e., the extending directions of the first arc surface 711 and the second arc surface 712 are different, it may also be understood that the first arc surface 711 and the second arc surface 712 have different curvatures, as shown in fig. 21, which causes an inflection point 714 to be formed at a position where the first arc surface 711 and the second arc surface 712 are connected. Since the second arc surface 712 extends in a direction away from the roll brush 2 with respect to the first arc surface 711, this makes the interval between the second arc surface 712 and the roll brush 2 larger than the interval between the first arc surface 711 and the roll brush 2. When the rolling brush 2 rotates (e.g. rotates reversely), dirt moves along with the rotation of the rolling brush 2 in a channel surrounded by the rolling brush 2 and the first cambered surface 711; however, when the dirt moves to the critical point of the inflection point 714, since the interval between the rolling brush 2 and the second arc surface 712 becomes large, the dirt suddenly loses the support of the first arc surface 711, and it is parabolic along the tangential direction of rotation of the rolling brush 2 from the inflection point 714 and is thrown out.
In the cleaning system of the present disclosure, when the roller brush 2 is located in the roller brush groove 71, the interval between the second arc surface 712 and the roller brush 2 is greater than the interval between the first arc surface 711 and the roller brush 2, it may be understood that a large first opening is formed between the connection position and the roller brush 2, which causes dirt such as particles to be thrown out from the position where the second arc surface 712 is connected to the first arc surface 711 in the process of rotating with the roller brush 2 when the roller brush 2 is reversed. Therefore, the reverse tangent line in the above is a tangent line at the connecting position (inflection point 714) of the second cambered surface 712 and the first cambered surface 711. The thrown dirt can be blocked by the second cambered surface 712 and does not exceed the height of the side wall 715 at the front end of the tray 7, and then the rolling brush 2 can rotate forward to recover the dirt.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the interval between the third arc 713 and the roll brush 2 is greater than the interval between the first arc 711 and the roll brush 2, which may be understood as forming a larger second opening between the connection position and the roll brush 2. The third arc surface 713 is connected to the first arc surface 711 and is configured to extend rearward to the position of the dirt suction port 6. The third cambered surface 713 may gradually extend from the position of the first cambered surface 711 toward the dirt suction port 6. This causes the dirt to move in the passage surrounded by the roller brush 2 and the first arc surface 711 as the roller brush 2 rotates in the normal direction, but when the dirt moves to the position of the second opening, the dirt suddenly loses the support of the first arc surface 711 due to the interval between the roller brush 2 and the third arc surface 713 becoming large, and is thrown toward the dirt suction port 6 in the tangential direction of the rotation of the roller brush 2 from the position of the second opening, and is sucked by the dirt suction port 6.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, to avoid that dirt is thrown out of the tray 7 from the position of the first opening or inflection point 714 when the roller brush 2 is reversed. Based on this, it is selected that the front end side wall 715 of the brush groove 71 is constructed to be higher than the rotation tangent line of the brush 2 at the inflection point 714 position. It is also understood that the front end side wall 715 of the roller brush groove 71 is configured to be higher than the throwing path of dirt from the first opening, i.e., higher than the reverse tangent line of the first opening, and that the extension line of the reverse tangent line or the rotation tangent line is lower than the front end side wall 715 of the roller brush groove 71. Thus, dirt thrown out of the first opening or inflection point 714 may be blocked by the front side wall 715 of the roller brush channel 71 while moving along the reverse tangent line.
The above-described normal rotation tangent line refers to an opening position between the front end portion of the roll brush cover 3 and the roll brush 2. A third opening is formed between the front end of the roller brush cover 3 and the roller brush 2, and the front end side wall 715 of the roller brush groove 71 is configured to be higher than the throwing path of dirt from the third opening, i.e., higher than the normal rotation tangent line of the third opening, which can be understood as an extension line of the normal rotation tangent line is lower than the front end side wall 715 of the roller brush groove 71. Thereby, the dirt thrown out of the second opening can be blocked by the front end side wall 715 of the roller brush groove 71 while moving along the normal rotation tangent line.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the roll brush cover 3 is located at the second position, the roll brush cover 3 is combined with the highest point of the front end side wall 715 of the roll brush groove 71 or has a overlapping area. When the brush roller 3 moves forward to the second position, the inner wall of the brush roller has a contact area with the brush roller 2, the brush roller 2 can rotate at this time to clean the inner wall of the brush roller 3, and when the brush roller 2 rotates in the self-cleaning mode to clean the brush roller 3, dirt carried off from the inner wall of the brush roller 3 may be thrown out at the beginning of rotating to be separated from the brush roller 3. Based on this, when the rolling brush cover 3 is located at the second position, since the front end position of the rolling brush cover 3 is combined with the top end surface of the front end side wall 715, the rolling brush cover 3 and the front end side wall 715 of the rolling brush groove 71 can enclose an approximately closed space, so that the dirt can be prevented from being thrown out; alternatively, the front end position of the rolling brush cover 3 and the front end side wall 715 have overlapping areas, that is, the front end position of the rolling brush cover 3 and the orthographic projection of the front end side wall 715 in the height direction are at least partially overlapped, so that a tangent line of the front end position of the rolling brush cover 3 does not exceed the front end side wall 715 of the rolling brush groove 71, and dirt is blocked by the front end side wall 715 of the rolling brush groove 71 after being thrown out from the front end position of the rolling brush cover 3, thereby avoiding the dirt from being thrown out of the tray 7.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the tray 7 is provided with tray ribs 73 at a position located at the front side of the roller brush groove 71, and as shown in fig. 22 and 23, the tray ribs 73 may be configured as a flange structure extending upward from the side wall of the roller brush groove 71, the tray ribs 73 being provided in plurality, the plurality of tray ribs 73 being spaced apart in the axial direction of the roller brush groove 71. And each tray rib 73 extends toward the bottom of the roller brush groove 71 on the side wall of the roller brush groove 71, forming a comb-like structure. When the roller brush 2 throws out large-particle dirt, the tray ribs 73 can directly block the dirt from flying out of the tray 7 because gaps between the respective tray ribs 73 are small, and the large-particle dirt cannot pass through the gaps.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the plurality of tray ribs 73 form a centrally gathered shape. Referring to fig. 23, tray ribs 73 located at opposite side positions of the roller brush groove 71 are configured to be inclined toward a central region in the axial direction of the roller brush groove 71. When the sewage is thrown to the tray rib 73, the sewage gathers to the middle position of the tray under the drainage effect of the tray rib 73. Because the sewage suction port 6 at the bottom of the cleaning device has a larger suction force in the middle position, the sewage is gathered in the middle of the tray, which is favorable for the sewage suction port 6 to clean the sewage and keep the tray 7 clean.
On the basis of the above disclosure, the tray 7 is provided with tray ribs 73 at positions located at the rear side of the roll brush groove 71, and the tray ribs 73 located at the rear side of the roll brush groove 71 have the same structure as the tray ribs 73 located at the front side thereof, which will not be described in detail herein.
In this embodiment, the inner surface of the roller brush groove 71 may be an arc surface adapted to the shape of the roller brush 2, and the tray rib 73 is provided at a position on the arc surface on the front side of the roller brush 2. Of course, on the basis of the above disclosure, the roll brush groove 71 may also be provided on the second arc surface 712, which makes it possible for thrown-off dirt to be blocked by the tray rib 73 as well.
When the cleaning apparatus is placed on the tray 7, the roll brush 2 can be rotated on the tray 7 so that self-cleaning of the roll brush 2 is performed. The self-cleaning comprises a forward rotation step and a reverse rotation step, and in some steps, the rolling brush 2 rotates alternately in the forward and reverse directions. During rotation, most of the dirt on the surface of the roller brush 2 is scraped off by the scraper 13 and sucked in by the dirt suction opening 6. In the practical application scene, after the round brush 2 accomplishes cleaning work, the dirty position between scraper blade 13 and dirt absorbing port 6 is easily blocked to dirty volume or hair etc. when round brush 2 carries out self-cleaning, proper reversal round brush 2 can become flexible the dirty of card in scraper blade 13 and dirt absorbing port 6 department. Experiments prove that when the rolling brush 2 is reversed to an obtuse angle larger than 90 degrees and smaller than 180 degrees, the effect of loosening dirt can be achieved. Preferably, the best loosening effect is achieved when the roller brush 2 is rotated 130 degrees in reverse. When the angle of the reverse rotation of the roller brush 2 is smaller than 90 °, the friction force generated by the roller brush 2 is insufficient to loosen dirt stuck between the scraper 13 and the dirt suction port 6, or the loosening effect is poor. Only after the rolling brush 2 is turned over by a predetermined angle, the dirt at the position is gradually taken down under the friction force for a long time, and the dirt is driven to move along the reverse direction.
In a specific application scenario of the present disclosure, when the dirt loosens and moves along with the rolling brush 2, the dirt is sucked by the negative pressure generated by the dirt suction port 6, so that the self-cleaning effect is improved.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the roller brush 2 is reversed, the power of the main motor that provides suction to the suction port 6 may be increased, thereby increasing the suction force of the suction port 6, which enables dirt that is originally stuck at the suction port 6 to be directly sucked by the suction port 6 of high suction force after being loosened. For example, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the rolling brush 2 is reversed, the main motor is operated in a state of maximum power. In this case, the maximum power of the main motor may be the maximum power of the cleaning device during self-cleaning, or the maximum power of the cleaning device when the cleaning device sucks sewage on the floor, so that the sewage suction port 6 provides the maximum suction force to suck loose sewage when the rolling brush 2 is reversed. Some dirt is not directly sucked into the dirt suction opening 6 during the reverse rotation, but moves along with the rolling brush 2, and the dirt moves towards the dirt suction opening 6 or is scraped off again by the scraping plate 13 and is sucked into the dirt suction opening 6 during the forward rotation self-cleaning step of the rolling brush 2.
In the embodiment of controlling the inversion of the rolling brush 2 by at least 130 degrees, the rolling brush groove 71 may have a cambered surface structure matched with the shape of the rolling brush 2, that is, the inner surface of the rolling brush groove 71 is a cambered surface, and the dirt carried by the rolling brush 2 can be directly sucked by the dirt suction port 6, so that the condition that the dirt is thrown out of the tray along with the rolling brush 2 does not exist.
In another embodiment of the present disclosure, controlling the roll brush to reverse at least 130 ° may be applied in the above-described example including the first curved surface 711, the second curved surface 712, and the inflection point 714, since it is not excluded that some dirt may not be sucked by the dirt suction port 6 after being loosened by the roll brush 2, but moves along with the roll brush 2. When these dirt move to the position of the inflection point 714 along with the roller brush 2, since the interval between the roller brush 2 and the second arc surface 712 becomes large, the dirt suddenly loses the support of the first arc surface 711, and is thrown out from the position of the inflection point 714 along the rotation tangential direction of the roller brush 2 and onto the second arc surface 712, so that the dirt can be prevented from being thrown out of the tray 7. In the following forward rotation step of the rolling brush 2, the dirt on the second cambered surface 712 can move towards the dirt sucking port 6 along with the forward rotation of the rolling brush 2 and be sucked by the dirt sucking port 6 in the moving process.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to fig. 22, when the cleaning apparatus is placed on the tray 7, an angle between a line connecting the scraper 13 to the center of the roll brush 2 and a line connecting the inflection point 714 to the center of the roll brush 2 is greater than 90 ° and less than 180 °. In particular, the angle is the same as the angle at which the roller brush 2 is reversed in the self-cleaning mode. When the roll brush 2 performs the above-described reverse self-cleaning in the roll brush groove 71, there is a possibility that a small portion of the dirt is not sucked in by the dirt suction port 6 in time, and the dirt may rotate together with the roll brush 2. Taking 130 ° of the reverse rotation of the rolling brush 2 as an example, at this time, the included angle between the connection line from the scraper 13 to the center of the rolling brush 2 and the connection line from the inflection point 714 to the center of the rolling brush 2 is 130 °, and since the rolling brush 2 rotates 130 ° when performing the reverse rotation self-cleaning, the included angle is 130 ° as well, the dirt originally stuck at the scraper 13 is not easy to be thrown out of the tray 7 even if not sucked in time by the dirt suction port 6 after loosening. The design structure can ensure the loosening of dirt to the greatest extent and prevent the loosened dirt from being thrown out of the tray.
Example IV
The present embodiment provides a control method of a cleaning apparatus provided in the first embodiment or the second embodiment. The method comprises the following steps:
Step one, in the self-cleaning mode, the rolling brush cover 3 is controlled to move from the first position to the second position so that the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 is in contact fit with the rolling brush 2.
During operation of the cleaning device, the roller brush cover 3 is kept in the first position by default, so that the roller brush 2 can flexibly rotate on the working surface. When the work is finished, the cleaning equipment can enter a self-cleaning mode, at the moment, the rolling brush cover 3 can move from the first position to the second position under the driving action of the moving assembly 5, and the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 is in contact fit with the rolling brush 2.
And step two, controlling the rolling brush 2 to rotate during self-cleaning so as to clean the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3.
When the roll brush cover 3 is moved to the second position, the inner wall of the roll brush cover 3 is kept in contact engagement with the roll brush 2. At this time, the rolling brush 2 is controlled to rotate, so that the rolling brush 2 can directly clean the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3, and the brush hair on the rolling brush 2 can adsorb dirt on the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 on the rolling brush 2 under the condition of interference fit with the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3, thereby realizing cleaning of the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3.
And thirdly, controlling the rolling brush cover 3 to move from the second position to the first position after a preset time so as to enable the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 to be at least partially separated from the rolling brush 2.
When the cleaning of the rolling brush cover 3 is finished, the rolling brush cover 3 is driven by the moving component 5 to move from the second position to the first position, so that the rolling brush cover 3 is at least partially separated from the rolling brush 2. The time required for cleaning the roll brush cover 3 may be determined according to the rotation speed of the roll brush 2, the water supply speed of the cleaning device, etc., and the present disclosure is not particularly limited herein.
The self-cleaning mode includes a step of controlling the reverse rotation of the rolling brush 2 to self-clean and a step of controlling the forward rotation of the rolling brush 2 to self-clean. The normal rotation is the rotation direction of the rolling brush 2 in the normal working advancing process, and referring to the view directions of fig. 2 to 5, the normal rotation is the counterclockwise rotation, and the reverse rotation is the clockwise rotation. Before or during the step of controlling the roller brush 2 to rotate forward from cleaning, controlling the roller brush cover 3 to move from the first position to the second position; and the roller brush cover 3 is kept at the second position for a predetermined time while controlling the step of forward rotation of the roller brush 2 for self-cleaning.
When the roller brush 2 rotates forward, dirt on the surface of the roller brush 2 can be scraped off by the scraping plate 13 and sucked in by the dirt suction port 6. When the rolling brush 2 is reversed, dirt stays above the scraping plate 13 and enters between the rolling brush 2 and the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 in the process of rotating the rolling brush 2, so that the cleaning of the rolling brush cover 3 cannot be realized.
When the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 is cleaned by the rolling brush 2, the dirt adsorbed on the surface of the rolling brush 2 needs to be scraped off at any time by the scraping plate 13 so as to ensure that the dirt cannot be brought into the next rotation cycle, and the dirt passes through the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 again. The roller brush cover 3 needs to be controlled to move from the first position to the second position before the step of controlling the roller brush 2 to rotate forward for self-cleaning or during the self-cleaning step of the roller brush 2; and when the step of controlling the rolling brush 2 to rotate forward and self-clean is controlled, the rolling brush cover 3 is kept at the second position within the preset time, so that the cleaning of the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 can be realized. It should be noted that, the "predetermined time" may be the whole time of the self-cleaning step performed by the rolling brush 2, or may be only a period of time during which the self-cleaning step is performed, and only the rolling brush cover 3 is ensured to be cleaned by the rolling brush 2 during the period of time.
In order to achieve self-cleaning of the roller brush 2, it is necessary to control the rotation of the roller brush 2 in a forward and reverse alternating manner in a certain cleaning step. In the step of controlling the reverse self-cleaning of the roll brush 2, the roll brush cover 3 is kept in the first position, so that it is possible to avoid introducing dirt between the roll brush 2 and the inner wall of the roll brush cover 3 in the step of controlling the reverse self-cleaning of the roll brush 2.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the cleaning apparatus includes a main motor for providing suction to the suction port 6, and the step of controlling the roller brush 2 to reverse the self-cleaning includes: the rolling brush 2 is controlled to rotate reversely by more than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees, and the power of the main motor is increased in the process of controlling the rolling brush 2 to rotate reversely. In the practical application scene, after the round brush 2 accomplishes cleaning work, the dirty position between scraper blade 13 and dirt absorbing port 6 is easily blocked to dirty volume or hair etc. when round brush 2 carries out self-cleaning, proper reversal round brush 2 can become flexible the dirty of card in scraper blade 13 and dirt absorbing port 6 department. Experiments prove that when the rolling brush 2 is reversed to an obtuse angle larger than 90 degrees and smaller than 180 degrees, the effect of loosening dirt can be achieved. Preferably, the best loosening effect is achieved when the roller brush 2 is rotated 130 degrees in reverse. When the angle of the reverse rotation of the roller brush 2 is smaller than 90 °, the friction force generated by the roller brush 2 is insufficient to loosen dirt stuck between the scraper 13 and the dirt suction port 6, or the loosening effect is poor. Only after the rolling brush 2 is turned over by a predetermined angle, the dirt at the position is gradually taken down under the friction force for a long time, and the dirt is driven to move along the reverse direction.
When the rolling brush 2 is reversed, the power of the main motor for providing suction force for the dirt sucking port 6 can be increased to the maximum power, so that the suction force of the dirt sucking port 6 is increased, and dirt originally clamped at the dirt sucking port 6 can be directly sucked by the dirt sucking port 6 with large suction force after being loosened. Some dirt is not sucked directly by the dirt suction opening 6 during the reverse rotation, but is scraped off again by the scraper 13 and sucked by the dirt suction opening 6 during the forward rotation self-cleaning step of the roller brush 2 as the roller brush 2 moves. Thus, the cleaning device can loosen dirt clamped at the positions of the scraping plate 13 and the dirt suction port 6 during self-cleaning, and more thorough self-cleaning can be realized.
Application scenario one
In a home cleaning scenario, the cleaning device of the present disclosure may be a hand-held floor washer. The handheld floor scrubber comprises a floor brush assembly, wherein the floor brush assembly comprises a floor brush shell 1, a rolling brush 2 and a rolling brush cover 3. The cleaning device is capable of cleaning dirt on the floor by means of the roller brush 2, in particular the roller brush 2 is configured to be rotatably connected to the floor brush housing 1, the roller brush 2 being capable of adsorbing dirt on the working surface during operation.
The rolling brush cover 3 is detachably arranged on the ground brush shell 1, a user can pinch the two buckles 35 by one hand and exert force in the direction of approaching each other, and then lift the buckles 35 upwards with force, so that the rolling brush cover 3 can be detached from the ground brush shell 1; when the roll brush cover 3 is installed, a user can easily complete the installation by only placing the roll brush cover 3 at a corresponding position and pressing down the roll brush cover 3.
The roll brush cover 3 is configured to move between a first position and a second position relative to the floor brush housing 1. When the roller brush cover 3 is located at the first position, as shown in fig. 1, the roller brush cover 3 is separated from the roller brush 2, and at this time, the roller brush 2 can freely rotate in the roller brush cavity to clean the ground, and the roller brush cover 3 does not make any contact with the roller brush 2, so that resistance to rotation of the roller brush 2 is prevented. During the cleaning process of the roller brush 2, dirt adsorbed on the surface of the roller brush is thrown to the inner wall of the roller brush cover 3 under the action of centrifugal force, so that the inner wall of the roller brush cover 3 is polluted. When the cleaning device performs self-cleaning, as shown in fig. 2, the rolling brush cover 3 can move to the second position, and at the moment, the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 is in contact fit with the rolling brush 2, so that the inner wall of the rolling brush cover 3 can be cleaned through the rolling brush 2 when the rolling brush 2 performs self-cleaning.
As shown in fig. 4 and 14, the rolling brush cover 3 is configured to swing between a first position and a second position along an arc line relative to the ground brush housing 1, and the center of the movement is the position of the extension part corresponding to the liquid outlet 4. The liquid outlet 4 is formed by the extension part 32 at the rear end of the rolling brush cover 3 and the drainage part 112 on the liquid outlet assembly 11, and the size of the liquid outlet 4 can be kept almost unchanged in the moving process of the rolling brush cover 3 by arranging the moving circle center at the liquid outlet 4. The problem that the liquid outlet assembly 11 is blocked due to the fact that the size of the liquid outlet 4 is too large and dirt is thrown into the liquid outlet 4 in the rotating process of the rolling brush 2 is avoided. In addition, the dimensions of the liquid outlet 4 remain unchanged, so that the liquid can wet the roller brush 2 uniformly and quantitatively. In addition, the rear end of the roll brush cover 3 can be kept almost stationary during rotation, so that the roll brush cover 3 is prevented from interfering with the tapping assembly 11 during movement.
