DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] Exemplary embodiments embodying the features and advantages of this application are described in detail in the following descriptions. It should be understood that the present disclosure may have various changes in different embodiments, which are all included within the scope of the present disclosure, and that the descriptions and accompanying drawings therein are intended to illustrate rather than limit this application.

[0017] In the following description of different exemplary implementations of the present application, reference is made to the accompanying drawings, which form part of the present disclosure, and in which different exemplary structures, systems, and steps that may implement aspects of the present application are shown by way of examples. It should be understood that other specific schemes of components, structures, exemplary devices, systems and steps may be used, and structural and functional modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the present disclosure. Moreover, although the terms above, between, within and the like may be used in this specification to describe different exemplary features and elements of the present application, these terms are used herein for convenience only, for example, according to the directions of the examples described in the accompanying drawings. Anything in this specification should not be construed as requiring a particular three-dimensional orientation of a structure to fall within the scope of the present disclosure.

[0018] End caps of an existing cleaning brush are small in size, longer end portions of a shaft lever of the cleaning brush are exposed outside the end caps, and the end caps are located outside a cylindrical member that sleeves the shaft lever of the cleaning brush, so that entanglements wound around the cylindrical member are easily wound from end portions of the cylindrical member to the end portions of the shaft lever to deeper positions, and the end caps have to be disassembled to take the entanglements out of the cylindrical member, wasting time and energy. Furthermore, since the end caps of the existing cleaning brush are small in size, an omission of the end caps is difficult to be found if it happens during an assembling process of the cleaning brush, and thus it is necessary to set up an additional omission prevention structure.

[0019] Referring to FIG. 1, which representatively shows a three-dimensional schematic structural diagram of a cleaning brush proposed by the present application. In this exemplary embodiment, the cleaning brush proposed by the present application is illustrated by taking application to an intelligent cleaning robot as an example. It is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that various modifications, additions, substitutions, deletions or other changes made to the following specific embodiments in order to apply relevant designs of the present application to other types of cleaning devices are still within the scope of the principle of the cleaning brush proposed by the present application.

[0020] As shown in FIG. 1, in this embodiment, the cleaning brush proposed by the present application mainly includes a shaft lever (the shaft lever 100 shown in FIG. 2), the cylindrical member 200 and two end portion members 300. With reference to FIGS. 2-8, FIG. 2 representatively shows a three-dimensional exploded schematic diagram of the cleaning brush; FIG. 3 representatively shows a front view of FIG. 1; FIG. 4 representatively shows a shaft-side section view of FIG. 3; FIG. 5 representatively shows a front view of FIG. 2; FIG. 6 representatively shows a shaft-side section view of FIG. 5; FIG. 7 representatively shows a three-dimensional schematic structural diagram of the shaft lever 100 and the end portion members 300; and FIG. 8 representatively shows an enlarged exploded schematic diagram of part of the structure shown in FIG. 7, which specifically shows an exploded state of one end portion member 300 and one first end portion 110 of the shaft lever. Structures, connection ways and functional relationships of main components of the cleaning brush proposed by the present application are described in detail hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] As shown in FIGS. 1-4, in an embodiment of the present application, the shaft lever 100 has two first end portions 110 that are opposite in an axial direction, that is, two ends of the shaft lever 100 are the first end portions 110 respectively. The cylindrical member 200 is sleeved onto the shaft lever 100 coaxially; and the cylindrical member 200 has two second end portions 210 that are opposite in an axial direction, that is, two ends of the cylindrical member 200 are the second end portions 210 respectively. A brush part is arranged on the outer surface of the cylindrical member 200. The two end portion members 300 are mounted at the two first end portions 110 of the shaft lever 100 respectively. Each end portion member 300 has a blocking structure 310. The blocking structure 310 may prevent entanglements such as hair or silk threads from excessively extending away from the cleaning brush. Moreover, the end portion member 300 and the corresponding first end portion 110 respectively have mutually matched mounting structures 400. The mounting structure 400 includes a guide sleeve 420 arranged at one end of the end portion member 300 facing the shaft lever 100, and the guide sleeve 420 may be sleeved onto the first end portion 110 of the shaft lever 100 corresponding to the end portion member 300. On this basis, the second end portion 210 of the cylindrical member 200 corresponding to the end portion member 300 covers at least a portion of the guide sleeve. For details, reference may be made to a coverage area A shown in FIG. 4. Through the above design, the present application allows at least a portion of the guide sleeve 420 to intervene between the shaft lever 100 and the corresponding end portion of the cylindrical member 200 to make entanglements wound around the cylindrical member 200 be mainly wound around the guide sleeve 420 rather than being directly wound around the shaft lever 100, so that the entanglements can be removed along with the disassembly of the end portion member 300, and cleaning is more convenient. Furthermore, during an assembling process of the cleaning brush, when the end portion members 300 are not assembled, component missing of the cleaning brush is apparent and is easier to be found.

[0022] It should be noted that the embodiments in this specification are illustrated respectively with each of the two first end portions 110 of the shaft lever 100 being provided with the end portion member 300 as an example. It should be understood that the present application may also allow the end portion member 300 to be mounted on only one first end portion 110 of the shaft lever 100 in some embodiments. In other words, in various possible embodiments that conform to the design conception of the present application, the cleaning brush proposed by the present application includes at least one end portion member 300, and the at least one end member 300 is mounted on at least one first end portion 110 of the shaft lever 100.

[0023] As shown in FIGS. 2, 4 and 6, in an embodiment of the present application, the second end portion 210 of the cylindrical member 200 corresponding to the end portion member 300 may cover the first end portion 110 on which the corresponding end portion member 300 is mounted. In other words, the first end portion 110, on which the end portion member 300 is mounted, is entirely disposed within the coverage of the second end portion 210 corresponding to the first end portion 110, that is, the first end portion 110 do not stretch out of the second end portion 210, that is, the shaft lever 100 is shorter than the cylindrical member 200. In some embodiments, the first end portion 110, on which the end portion member 300 is mounted, may also partially stretch out of the coverage of the corresponding second end portion 210, that is, the first end portion 110 may stretch out of the coverage area A shown in FIG. 4. Thus, the configuration of the first end portion is not limited to this embodiment, and it is only needed to ensure that the second end portion 210 covers at least a portion of the end portion member 300.

[0024] As shown in FIGS. 1-6. in an embodiment of the present application, the blocking structure 310 of the end portion member 300 may be disposed outside the second end portion 210 of the cylindrical member 200 corresponding to the end portion member 300. In other words, the blocking structure 310 of the end portion member 300 may be disposed outside the coverage area A shown in FIG. 4.

[0025] As shown in FIGS. 2, 4 and 6, in an embodiment of the present application, the mounting structure 400 may include a guide hole 411 and a guide shaft 412. Specifically, the guide hole 411 is coaxial with the first end portion 110 and is formed in an end face of the first end portion 110. The guide shaft 412 is connected with the end portion member 300, and used to be inserted in the guide hole 411. Through the above design, the present application may provide an axial guiding function and a radial limiting function in the mounting of the end portion member 300 and the shaft lever 100 by using the guide shaft 412 and the guide hole 411, which are in plug-in fit with each other.

[0026] As shown in FIGS. 1-6, in an embodiment of the present application, the mounting structures 400 may also include a guide sleeve 420. Specifically, the guide sleeve 420 is arranged at one end of the end portion member 300 facing the shaft lever 100 and may be sleeved onto the first end portion 110. On this basis, a first limiting structure is arranged on a side wall of the first end portion, and a second limiting structure matched with the first limiting structure is arranged on an inner wall of the guide sleeve 420. Accordingly, the cleaning brush may avoid relative rotation between the shaft lever 100 and the end portion member 300 through the matching of the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure.

[0027] Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 2, 4 and 6, in an embodiment of the present application, the mounting structure 400 may include the guide hole 411, the guide shaft 412 and the guide sleeve 420 at the same time. On this basis, the guide sleeve 420 may be arranged around at least partial sections of the guide shaft 412 with one or more gaps. In some embodiments, the mounting structure 400 may only include the guide hole 411 and the guide shaft 412, or may only include the guide sleeve 420. The mounting and fixing of the end portion member 300 and the first end portion 110 of the shaft lever 100 may be achieved through other structures.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 6, according to an embodiment of the present application, in the axial direction of the shaft lever 100, a distance L1 between one end of the guide sleeve 420 far away from a main body and the blocking structure 310 corresponding to the same first end portion 110 as the guide sleeve 420 may be greater than 5% (for example, 5%, 8%, 10%, 15%, etc.) of a length L0 of the shaft lever 100. Accordingly, compared with the design that the end caps of the existing cleaning brush are smaller in size, the design in the present application that the guide sleeve 420 partially intervenes between the first end portion 110 and the second end portion 210 can make the end portion member 300 has a larger size (including the size of the guide sleeve 420), so as to enlarge the space of the end portion member 300 for winding of the entanglements, and further prevent the entanglements from winding around the shaft lever 100. In other words, the present application adopts the design of the length relationship of the above related members, so that the part of the end portion member 300 matched with the shaft lever 100 is prolonged, the size is increased, and the processing and production are easy.

[0029] As shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, in an embodiment of the present application, the first limiting structure may be a limiting groove 431, and the second limiting structure may be a limiting rib 432, and the limiting groove 431 is matched with the limiting rib 432 in shape. Accordingly, in a process of sleeving the first end portion 110 of the shaft lever 100 with the guide sleeve 420, the limiting rib 432 is matched with the limiting groove 431 and may provide guiding and limiting functions in the above mounting process. In some embodiments, the first limiting structure may also be the limiting rib 432, and the second limiting structure may also be the limiting groove 431. In other words, in various possible embodiments that conform to the design conception of the present application, one of the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure may be the limiting rib 432, while the other may be the limiting groove 431 matched with the limiting rib 432 in shape. Furthermore, the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure may also adopt limiting fit structures in other forms, and are not limited to the above embodiments.

[0030] As shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, in an embodiment of the present application, the limiting rib 432 and the limiting groove 431 may have matched spiral shapes. Accordingly, the end portion member 300 and the shaft lever 100 are relatively displaced in the axial direction and relatively rotated in the circumferential direction during dismounting and mounting of the end portion member 300 and the shaft lever 100.

[0031] Based on the design that the limiting rib 432 and the limiting groove 431 have spiral shapes, in an embodiment of the present application, the spiral directions of the spiral limiting rib 432 and the spiral limiting groove 431 may be opposite to the rotation direction of the shaft lever 100. Through the above design, since the spiral directions of the limiting rib 432 and the limiting groove 431 are opposite to the rotation direction of the shaft lever 100, when the shaft lever 100 rotates in the cleaning device in the rotation direction, looseness of the limiting rib 432 and the limiting groove 431 may be further avoided to ensure the mounting stability and reliability of the shaft lever 100 and the end portion member 300.

[0032] As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, based on the design that the limiting rib 432 and the limiting groove 431 have spiral shapes, in an embodiment of the present application, the outer wall of the guide sleeve 420 may be provided with at least one first assembly mark 421. The first assembly mark 421 may mark the rotation direction of the end portion member 300 when assembling with the shaft lever 100 (i.e., the spiral directions of the limiting rib 432 and the limiting groove 431).

[0033] As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, based on the design that the guide sleeve 420 is provided with the first assembly mark 421, in an embodiment of the present application, the outer wall of the guide sleeve 420 may be provided with a deformation groove; and the deformation groove may prevent shrinkage deformation of injection molded parts such as the guide sleeve 420 and the end portion member 300. Based on this, the deformation groove may take a special shape (approximately a triangle shape or arrowhead shape, for example) to serve as the first assembly mark 421, so as to mark the rotation direction of the end portion member 300 when assembling with the shaft lever 100 while preventing shrinkage deformation.

[0034] Reference is made to FIG. 9, which representatively shows an enlarged exploded schematic diagram of part of the structure of a cleaning brush proposed by the present application according to another embodiment, and specifically shows an exploded state of one end portion member 300 and one first end portion 110 of the shaft lever.

[0035] As shown in FIG. 9, in an embodiment of the present application, one of the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure may be the limiting rib 432, while the other may be the limiting groove 431. Based on this, the limiting rib 432 and the limiting groove 431 may have linear shapes matched with each other.

[0036] As shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, in an embodiment of the present application, when the second limiting structure is the limiting rib 432, the limiting rib 432 may be arranged on the inner wall of the guide sleeve 420 by an integral forming process. In some embodiments, the limiting rib 432 may also be arranged on the inner wall of the guide sleeve 420 by other processes, for example, by welding, or by stamping a partial structure of the guide sleeve 420. Furthermore, when the second limiting structure is the limiting groove 431, the limiting groove 431 may be a groove formed in the inner wall of the guide sleeve 420 or a through groove penetrating through the guide sleeve 420.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present application, the first end portion 110 may be provided with a plurality of first limiting structures, which are arranged uniformly at intervals in the circumferential direction of the shaft lever 100.

[0038] In an embodiment of the present application, the guide sleeve 420 may be provided with a plurality of second limiting structures, which are arranged uniformly at intervals in the circumferential direction of the guide sleeve 420.

[0039] As described above, with the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure being the limiting groove 431 and the limiting rib 432 respectively as an example, there may be one or more limiting ribs 432 in case of a plurality of limiting grooves 431, and the number of the limiting ribs 432 is not greater than but may be less than that of the limiting grooves 431.

[0040] As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, in an embodiment of the present application, a third limiting structure may be arranged on the side wall of the first end portion 110, and a fourth limiting structure matched with the third limiting structure may be arranged on the inner wall of the guide sleeve 420. Based on this, one of the third limiting structure and the fourth limiting structure may be a bump fastener 441, while the other may be a fastening groove 442 in fastening fit with the bump fastener 441. Through the above design, the present application can provide a good feel in disassembly and assembly and a function of judging whether the assembly is in place through the fastening of the bump fastener 441 and the fastening groove 442, simplify the difficulty of disassembly and assembly, provide a certain fool-proofing effect, and further improve the user experience.

[0041] In an embodiment of the present application, the first end portion 110 of the shaft lever 100 may be provided with a plurality of first limiting structures and a plurality of third limiting structures, of which the numbers may be equal. Based on this, the plurality of first limiting structures and the plurality of third limiting structures may be arranged alternately in sequence at intervals in the circumferential direction of the shaft lever 100.

[0042] Based on the design that the first end portion 110 of the shaft lever 100 is provided with the plurality of first limiting structures and the plurality of third limiting structures, of which the numbers are equal, in an embodiment of the present application, the plurality of first limiting structures and the plurality of third limiting structures may be arranged uniformly at intervals in the circumferential direction of the shaft lever 100. Through the above design, the present application can make the limiting structures be stressed more uniformly during a process that the end portion member 300 transmits torque to the shaft lever 100.

[0043] In an embodiment of the present application, the guide sleeve 420 may be provided with a plurality of second limiting structures and a plurality of fourth limiting structures, of which the numbers may be equal. Based on this, the plurality of second limiting structures and the plurality of fourth limiting structures may be arranged alternately in sequence at intervals in the circumferential direction of the shaft lever 100.

[0044] Based on the design that the guide sleeve 420 is provided with the plurality of second limiting structures and the plurality of fourth limiting structures, of which the numbers are equal, in an embodiment of the present application, the plurality of second limiting structures and the plurality of fourth limiting structures may be arranged uniformly at intervals in the circumferential direction of the shaft lever 100. Through the above design, the present application can make the limiting structures be stressed more uniformly during the process that the end portion member 300 transmits torque to the shaft lever 100.

[0045] As shown in FIG. 8, in an embodiment of the present application, when the fourth limiting structure is the bump fastener 441, the bump fastener 441 may be arranged on the inner wall of the guide sleeve 420 by an integral forming process. In some embodiments, the bump fastener 441 may also be arranged on the inner wall of the guide sleeve 420 by other processes, for example, by welding, or by stamping a partial structure of the guide sleeve 420. Furthermore, when the fourth limiting structure is the limiting groove 442, the limiting groove 442 may be a groove formed in the inner wall of the guide sleeve 420 or a through groove penetrating through the guide sleeve 420.

[0046] As shown in FIGS. 5 and 8, in an embodiment of the present application, at least one second assembly mark 422 may be arranged on the outer wall of the guide sleeve 420; and the position of the at least one second assembly mark 422 may correspond to that of at least one second limiting structure to mark the position of the at least one second limiting structure. In some embodiments, when a plurality of second limiting structures are arranged on the inner wall of the guide sleeve 420, only one second assembly mark 422 corresponding to any second limiting structure may be arranged on the outer wall of the guide sleeve 420, or a plurality of second assembly marks 422 corresponding to the second limiting structures respectively may be arranged on the outer wall of the guide sleeve 420.

[0047] As shown in FIGS. 1-6, in an embodiment of the present application, the blocking structure 310 of the end portion member 300 may be a blocking ring, and the blocking ring may surround the end portion member 300 and forms a closed-ring structure.

[0048] As shown in FIGS. 1-7, in an embodiment of the present application, both first end portions 110 of the shaft lever 100 are provided with the end portion members 300. Based on this, one of the two end portion members 300 is provided with the transmission structure 320 which is used for transmitting torque, and the other of the two end portion members 300 is used for mounting the bearing structure 500. Based on this, the end portion member 300 provided with the transmission structure 320 is used to be connected with a driving mechanism of the cleaning device through the transmission structure 320, and the end portion member 300 provided with the bearing structure 500 is used to be connected rotatably with other structures (for example, a machine body) of the cleaning device through the bearing structure 500. Accordingly, when the end portion member 300 (i.e., a driving-side end cap) provided with the transmission structure 320 is mounted, the driving-side end cap rotates around the guide hole 411, and the driving-side end cap may move in the axial direction while rotating due to the spiral limiting groove 431 and the spiral limiting rib 432, so as to complete the assembly and disassembly of the entire end cap. Similarly, when the end portion member 300 (i.e., a bearing-side end cap) for mounting the bearing structure 500 is mounted, the bearing-side end cap can be mounted and dismounted according to the same movement logic. Meanwhile, since the spiral directions of the spiral limiting rib 432 and the spiral limiting groove 431 are opposite to the rotation direction (i.e., an operation direction of a main brush) of the shaft lever 100, spiral loosening is avoided during operation. Through the above design, during an assembling process of the cleaning brush, when the end portion members 300 are not assembled, matching structures (such as a laminated structure and the bearing structure 500) mounted or arranged on the two end portion members 300 are not arranged, so that main brush parts (such as the shaft lever 100 and the cylindrical member 200) cannot be assembled in place when the end portion members 300 are omitted, and accordingly a more complete omission prevention function can be achieved. Furthermore, when both first end portions 110 of the shaft lever 100 are provided with the end portion members 300, the same mounting structures 400 are adopted between the two first end portions 110 of the shaft lever 100 and the two end portion members 300, which facilitates error prevention during production, is beneficial to reducing the error rate of processing, and increases the production yield.

[0049] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, based on the design that one end portion member 300 is provided with the transmission structure 320, in an embodiment of the present application, the transmission structure 320 may include a columnar structure with a regular polygonal cross section, the axis of the columnar structure coincides with those of the end portion member 300 and the shaft lever 100, and accordingly the transmission structure 320 may be used to be matched with an output end of a driving mechanism, for example, a final output gear of a gearbox.

[0050] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 6, based on the design that the other end portion member 300 is provided with the bearing structure 500, in an embodiment of the present application, one end of the guide shaft 412 of the end portion member 300 facing away from the shaft lever 100 stretches out of the end portion member 300 to serve as a matching section 4121 matched with the bearing structure 500; and the bearing structure 500 is detachably arranged on the matching section 4121 of the guide shaft 412.

[0051] As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, based on the design that the guide shaft 412 has the matching section 4121, in an embodiment of the present application, the matching section 4121 of the guide shaft 412 may be provided with a positioning groove 4122 in a circumferential direction, for example, the outer diameter of the matching section 4121 is designed to be smaller than those of other sections of the guide shaft 412 to make the matching section 4121 form the positioning groove 4122. Based on this, the positioning groove 4122 is in positioning fit with the bearing structure 500 to prevent displacement of the bearing structure 500.

[0052] As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, in an embodiment of the present application, the end portion member 300 may be provided with a friction structure 330, such as, but not limited to, friction patterns, friction protrusions, etc., which makes the end portion member 300 be easier to be screwed in the assembling process.

[0053] In an embodiment of the present application, the cylindrical member 200 may be a flexible member or a rigid member. Furthermore, the brush part may be arranged on the outer surface of the cylindrical member 200 by bonding, inserting or the like. When the cylindrical member 200 is the flexible member, the brush part may also be integrally formed with the cylindrical member 200. In some embodiments, the brush part may also be in other forms, for example, in the form of blades or bristles.

[0054] It should be noted here that the cleaning brush shown in the accompanying drawings and described in this specification are only a few examples of a number of kinds of cleaning brushes that may apply the principles of the present application. It should be clearly understood that the principles of the present application are not limited to any detail or any component of the cleaning brush shown in the accompanying drawings or described in this specification.
