The problem that the cleaning effect of the brush wheel of the existing shoe washing machine on the shoes is poor is pointed out based on the background technology. The invention provides a brush wheel, a brush wheel assembly and a shoe washing machine for the shoe washing machine, aiming at washing shoes more pertinently by arranging bristles with different specifications, so that the shoes can be washed more fully, more uniformly and comprehensively without dead angles, the shoe washing effect is improved, and the shoe washing requirement is met.

Specifically, the present invention provides a brush wheel for a shoe washing machine, the brush wheel including a brush plate and a plurality of tufts of bristles disposed on the brush plate, at least a portion of the plurality of tufts of bristles being disposed to extend from the brush plate in different directions. The plurality of bristles may extend in different directions, or some of the bristles may extend in different directions and some of the bristles may extend in the same direction. The skilled person can flexibly set the installation angle of the multiple tufts of bristles on the brush disc in practical application, as long as the brushing range of the brush wheel is increased by setting the installation angle of at least a part of the multiple tufts of bristles to be different. It should be noted that the different angles of the multiple tufts of bristles in the above description refer to different installation angles between the bristles of each tuft on the brush tray, and of course, in practical applications, the installation angles of the multiple bristles of each tuft may be set to be the same or different, or may be partially the same or partially different, and the change in the installation angle of each bristle of the single tufts does not depart from the technical solution of the present invention, and thus, the present invention falls into the protection scope of the present invention. The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to specific examples.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the brush wheel comprises a brush disc 1 and a plurality of tufts of bristles arranged on the brush disc 1, wherein a plurality of rows of mounting holes 4 are arranged on the brush disc 1 along the circumferential direction thereof, and the mounting holes 4 are used for mounting the bristles. That is, each mounting hole 4 can be used to mount a tuft of bristles, and the angle of each tuft of bristles is different by setting the angle of the mounting hole 4, and certainly, each mounting hole 4 is not limited to mounting only one tuft of bristles, and multiple tufts of bristles can be mounted in the same mounting hole 4 under the condition that the hole area of the mounting hole 4 allows, and those skilled in the art can flexibly set the mounting manner of the bristles in practical application as long as the angle of the bristles is different by the angle of the mounting hole 4. In addition, the arrangement of the mounting holes 4 in a row along the circumferential direction of the brush plate 1 is only exemplary, and in practical applications, a person skilled in the art can flexibly set the arrangement of the mounting holes 4 according to the structure and area of the brush plate 1, as long as the brush bristles can be covered on the brush plate 1 in a large area through the arrangement of the mounting holes 4.

In a preferred embodiment, the number and the angle of the two adjacent rows of mounting holes 4 are different, and the number and the angle of the two rows of mounting holes 4 which are separated are the same. By this arrangement, the bristles can be arranged regularly on the brush plate 1, i.e. the number and angle of two adjacent rows of bristles are different, while the number and angle of two spaced rows of bristles are the same. The angle here refers to an included angle formed by the hole axis direction of the mounting holes 4 and the axis of the brush disc 1, the mounting holes 4 in multiple rows can be respectively recorded as a plurality of mounting holes 4 in a first row and a plurality of mounting holes 4 in a second row, and the mounting holes 4 in the first row and the mounting holes 4 in the second row are staggered with each other, so that in practical application, the included angle formed by the hole axis direction of the mounting holes 4 in the first row and the axis of the brush disc 1 can be set to be larger, and the included angle formed by the hole axis direction of the mounting holes 4 in the second row and the axis of the brush disc 1 can be set to be smaller. Of course, in practical applications, the rows of mounting holes 4 may be arranged on the brush tray 1 in other arrangements, for example, the mounting holes 4 in each row may be arranged at the same angle or at different angles. For another example, the angles of all the mounting holes 4 may be set in an irregular arrangement manner, that is, the angles of all the bristles are different, so that the shoes are brushed by the irregular bristles. Those skilled in the art can flexibly set the number and the angle of the mounting holes 4 in practical application, as long as the different angles of the brushes are realized through the mounting holes 4 to increase the brushing area of the brush wheel so as to improve the brushing effect.

Preferably, the plurality of tufts of bristles form a plurality of bristle groups, and/or the bristles of each bristle group are each of a different height. That is, the heights between each bristle group may be set to be the same or different, or a part may be the same and another part may be different. In practical application, a person skilled in the art can flexibly set the height of the bristle group according to the specific structure of the brush disk 1, as long as the shoe can be brushed through the setting of the height of the bristle group. In addition, each bristle group can be composed of multiple bristles or a single bristle group, in practical application, a person skilled in the art can flexibly set the structure and the classification of the bristle groups according to the structure and the area of the brush disk 1, in the technical description of the invention, the bristles with the same height are grouped into one group, but the number of the bristles in each bristle group is not limited, the bristles can be flexibly set, and the heights of the bristles in each bristle group are different. Of course, such division and grouping of the bristles is merely for convenience of technical description of the present invention and does not constitute a limitation on the number of bristles and the height of bristles.

It is further preferred that the plurality of bristle sets comprises a first bristle set comprising a plurality of first tufts 2 having a first height and a second bristle set comprising a plurality of second tufts 3 having a second height, the first height being greater than the second height. In one possible case, the bristle height is the height of the bristles on the brush plate 1 in the axial direction of the brush plate 1. In another possible case, the bristle height is the height of the bristles on the brush plate 1 in the radial direction of the brush plate 1. In yet another possible case, the bristle height is the combined height in the axial and radial direction of the brush disc 1 (i.e. the length of the bristles extending over a portion of the brush disc 1), i.e. the height of the bristles is greater both in the axial and radial direction of the brush disc 1, and the height of the bristles is smaller both in the axial and radial direction of the brush disc 1. The arrangement of the bristles in the above three cases can achieve the same technical effect, i.e., different areas of the shoe can be brushed by the bristle groups with different heights. The height and arrangement mode of the first bristle group and the second bristle group can be flexibly set by a person skilled in the art according to the motion track of the bristle wheel and the specific installation position of the shoe in practical application, as long as different areas of the shoe can be brushed through the bristle groups with different heights.

Preferably, the first bristle group is an outer ring bristle group, the second bristle group is an inner ring bristle group, and the outer ring bristle group is arranged between the inner ring bristle group and the outer edge of the brush disc 1. Wherein, inner circle brush hair group and outer lane brush hair group all can be the setting of annular mode on brush dish 1 to, the central axis of inner circle brush hair group and the central axis of outer lane brush hair group all coincide with the central axis of brush dish 1. That is, the multiple tufts of bristles of the inner bristle group are annularly arranged around the central axis of the brush disk 1, and the multiple tufts of bristles of the outer bristle group are also annularly arranged around the central axis of the brush disk 1. Of course, the arrangement of the first bristle group and the second bristle group is only exemplary, and in practical applications, the first bristle group and the second bristle group may be arranged in other arrangements as long as the shoe is brushed by the distribution of the first bristle group and the second bristle group.

Further preferably, the outer ring bristle group and the inner ring bristle group together form a cylindrical bristle body 5. As shown in fig. 3, the ends (i.e., the protruding ends) of the bristles on the disk 1 are arranged in parallel in the axial direction and the radial direction of the disk 1, i.e., the bristles have the same height in the axial direction of the disk 1 and the same height in the radial direction of the disk 1, so that the shape of the bristle body 5 can be formed into a cylinder. By arranging such that one side of the brush plate 1 (i.e., the side which interacts with the shoes when washing the shoes) is covered by the outer ring bristle group and the inner ring bristle group, the bristles on the brush plate 1 can be arranged more compactly, thereby improving the brushing effect on the shoes.

Preferably, the first bristles 2 have a hardness less than that of the second bristles 3. That is, the hardness of the inner ring bristles is greater than that of the outer ring bristles. In practice, the stiffness of the bristles of each tuft can be adjusted by setting the number, thickness and material of the bristles. In one possible case, the stiffness of the bristles per tuft is adjusted by adjusting the number of bristles, wherein bristles per tuft having greater stiffness may be formed by providing a greater number of bristles and bristles per tuft having less stiffness may be formed by providing a lesser number of bristles. In another possible case, the hardness of each bristle tuft is adjusted by adjusting the thickness of each bristle tuft, wherein each bristle tuft having a greater hardness may be constructed by providing thicker bristles, and each bristle tuft having a lesser hardness may be constructed by providing thinner bristles. In still another possible case, the hardness of each bristle cluster is adjusted by adjusting the material of the bristles, wherein each bristle cluster with higher hardness can be formed by arranging a combination of bristles with higher hardness, and each bristle cluster with lower hardness can be formed by arranging a combination of bristles with lower hardness, and of course, the hardness of each bristle cluster can be adjusted by combining the three manners, so as to meet the requirement of different hardness of each bristle cluster.

In another aspect, the invention further provides a brush wheel assembly, which includes a movable carriage, a connecting arm and the aforementioned brush wheel, wherein the connecting arm is connected between the movable carriage and the brush wheel, in practical applications, the brush wheel can be mounted on the connecting arm through a screw, and the brush wheel is driven by the movement of the movable carriage to brush the shoes.

In another aspect, the invention further provides a shoe washing machine, which includes a driving member, a transmission assembly and the aforementioned brush wheel assembly, wherein the driving member drives the moving carriage to move through the transmission assembly, so as to drive the brush wheel assembly to wash shoes, the driving member may be a motor, and the transmission assembly may be a transmission mechanism such as a rack-and-pinion pair or a lead screw-and-nut pair, which is not limiting, and those skilled in the art can flexibly set the specific structures of the driving member and the transmission assembly in practical applications as long as the brush wheel assembly can be driven to move through a power device formed by the driving member and the transmission assembly.

So far, the technical solutions of the present invention have been described in connection with the preferred embodiments shown in the drawings, but it is easily understood by those skilled in the art that the scope of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Equivalent changes or substitutions of related technical features can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the principle of the invention, and the technical scheme after the changes or substitutions can fall into the protection scope of the invention.
