Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.

As shown in fig. 1, the present embodiment provides a dust collecting box 1, the dust collecting box 1 is applied to a cleaning machine, and the dust collecting box 1 comprises a box body 11 and a movable cover plate 12.

A dust discharge port 111 is formed in one wall surface of the case 11, and as shown in fig. 2, a movable cover 12 is slidably provided over the dust discharge port 111, and the movable cover 12 is adapted to abut against an abutting member 21 on the base work station 2 of the cleaning machine 3 and slidably open the dust discharge port 111.

In a normal state, the movable cover plate 12 closes the dust discharge opening 111, and the garbage in the dust collecting box 1 cannot leak out through the dust discharge opening 111 due to the blocking of the movable cover plate 12. However, when the contact member 21 (shown in fig. 7) is engaged, the dust discharge opening 111 is automatically opened by the movable cover 12, the dust discharge opening 111 is no longer blocked by the movable cover 12, and the dust in the dust box 1 is discharged through the dust discharge opening 111. Therefore, the dust exhaust port 111 does not need to be opened manually by a user, and the problem that the dust exhaust port in the dust collecting box can be opened only by manually carrying out complex operation by the user after the dust collecting box in the cleaning robot is full of garbage is solved, and the operation is very inconvenient.

In this embodiment, the abutting member 21 is a first protrusion 21, and a second protrusion 121 matched with the first protrusion 21 is disposed on a side of the movable cover 12 away from the box 11. Specifically, the second protrusion 121 is a baffle having a rectangular shape. It is understood that the second protrusion 121 may have other specific shapes, which are not exhaustive.

In this embodiment, the bottom of the box 11 is provided with a first groove 122, the dust outlet 111 is provided on the bottom wall 1221 of the first groove 122, the movable cover 12 is disposed in the first groove 122, and the movable cover 12 is slidable in the first groove 122. Specifically, the dust discharge port 111 is provided at the head end of the groove bottom wall 1221 of the first groove 122. The movable cover 12 moves in the first recess 122, when the movable cover 12 moves to the head end of the first recess 122, the movable cover 12 closes the dust exhaust port 111, when the movable cover 12 moves to the tail end of the first recess 122, the dust exhaust port 111 is slowly opened, and when the movable cover 12 moves to the tail end of the first recess 122, the movable cover 12 completely opens the dust exhaust port 111. Specifically, the edge of the box body 11 is an arc-shaped edge 114, in this embodiment, when the dust collecting box is assembled with the cleaning machine, the arc-shaped edge 114 is a side far away from the assembling end, the head end of the first groove 122 is a side of the first groove 122 close to the arc-shaped edge 114, and the tail end of the first groove 122 is a side of the first groove 122 far away from the arc-shaped edge 114. The bottom of the box body 11 is the side of the box body close to the cleaning surface which is the ground, the table top or the glass surface when the cleaning machine 3 performs the cleaning process.

Specifically, the bottom 1221 of the groove is a flat surface, which facilitates the sliding of the movable cover 12.

In this embodiment, the dust collecting box 1 further comprises an elastic connecting member 13, one end of the elastic connecting member 13 is connected to the movable cover plate 12, the other end of the elastic connecting member 13 is disposed at the bottom of the box body 11, and the movable cover plate 12 closes the dust discharging opening 111 under the elastic action of the elastic connecting member 13. The movable cover plate 12 is not matched with the first bulge 21, and the movable cover plate 12 closes the dust exhaust port 111 under the elastic action of the elastic connecting piece 13. When the first protrusion 21 is removed from the matching, the movable cover 12 closes the dust outlet 111 again under the elastic action of the elastic connecting member 13.

Therefore, under the condition of no external force, the elastic acting force of the elastic connection 13 enables the movable cover plate 12 to close the dust exhaust port, the movable cover plate 12 overcomes the elastic acting force of the elastic connection piece 13 under the abutting action of the abutting piece 21 to slidably open the dust exhaust port 111, the dust exhaust port 111 is not required to be manually opened by a user, and after the abutting action of the abutting piece 21 is cancelled, the elastic acting force of the elastic connection 13 enables the movable cover plate 12 to automatically close the dust exhaust port 111, so that the problem that the dust exhaust port in the dust collection box can be opened only by manually carrying out complicated operation after the dust collection box in the cleaning robot is full of garbage is solved, and the operation is extremely inconvenient.
