According to an embodiment of the present invention, a projector is provided, which mainly includes a casing 100 and an impurity processing system, where the casing 100 mainly plays a role in protection and accommodation, and a plurality of components are generally disposed in the casing 100, such as: light source, display screen, power, control mainboard etc.. The housing 100 is provided with an inlet 110 and an outlet 120. In this embodiment, referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, the housing 100 is square, the air inlet 110 is disposed on the upper surface of the housing 100 in an annular hollow shape, and the air outlet 120 is disposed on the left side wall of the housing 100 in a square shape.

The impurity treatment system mainly comprises a controller, and a first detection element 130, a second detection element 140 and a cleaning device 200 which are electrically connected with the controller.

The first detecting element 130 is disposed inside the casing 100, and is configured to detect a first temperature value T1 inside the casing 100 and send data of the first temperature value to the controller. And a second detection element 140 disposed outside the housing 100, for detecting a second temperature value T2 outside the housing 100 and sending data of the second temperature value to the controller. The specific location at which the first detection element 130 is disposed outside the housing 100 is not particularly limited as long as the temperature outside the housing 100 can be detected. The specific location of the second detection element 140 within the housing 100 is also not particularly limited as long as the temperature within the housing 100 can be detected.

Referring to fig. 3 and 4, in the present embodiment, the first detecting element 130 is disposed at the upper right corner of the outer surface of the upper plate of the casing 100, and the second detecting element 140 is disposed at the approximate middle position of the inner surface of the bottom plate of the casing 100, which is only a preferred arrangement manner, and is only for more accurately detecting the temperature outside and inside the casing 100. In the present embodiment, the first detection element 130 and the second detection element 140 are both temperature sensors.

The controller is generally disposed inside the casing 100 and integrated on a control main board (not shown) of the projector. The controller is electrically connected to the first detecting element 130, the second detecting element 140 and the cleaning device 200, and is configured to receive a first temperature value T1 transmitted from the first detecting element 130 and a second temperature value T2 transmitted from the second detecting element 140, determine whether a relative relationship between the first temperature value T1 and the second temperature value T2 meets a first preset condition, and send a first command when the relative relationship between the first temperature value T1 and the second temperature value T2 meets the first preset condition, where the first command is used to control the cleaning device 200 to start up to clean impurities such as dust and hair at the air inlet 110 on the housing 100.

Specifically, the controller is configured to send the first command when a difference Δ between the first temperature value T1 and the second temperature value T2 is greater than or equal to a first preset threshold T1, i.e., T1-T2.

As the cleaning device 200 operates, the controller is further configured to determine whether a relative relationship between the first temperature value T1 and the second temperature value T2 meets a second preset condition, and send a second command when the relative relationship between the first temperature value T1 and the second temperature value T2 meets the second preset condition, where the second command is used to control the cleaning device 200 to stop.

Specifically, the controller is configured to send the second command when a difference Δ T between the first temperature value T1 and the second temperature value T2 is smaller than or equal to a second preset threshold T2, i.e., T1-T2.

It is understood that the first preset threshold and the second preset threshold may be set according to the use environment of the projector according to practical situations. For example, in certain circumstances, the first predetermined threshold may range from 15 to 25 ℃ and the second predetermined threshold may range from 0 to 10 ℃. Alternatively, the first preset threshold is set to 20 ℃, the second preset threshold is set to 5 ℃, and when the temperature difference T1-T2 is greater than or equal to the first preset threshold of 20 ℃, it indicates that the blockage of the air inlet 110 is serious, and then a first command is issued to control the cleaning device 200 to start. Along with the operation of the cleaning device 200, the wind force entering from the wind inlet 110 gradually increases, the temperature T2 inside the housing 100 gradually decreases, when the temperature difference T1-T2 is less than or equal to the second preset threshold value of 5 ℃, it indicates that the cleaning of the impurities at the wind inlet 110 is substantially completed, and at this time, a second command is issued to control the cleaning device 200 to stop.

It should be noted that the ranges and specific values of the first preset threshold and the second preset threshold are only one embodiment under a specific environment, and do not represent that in other embodiments, the first preset threshold and the second preset threshold can only be values within the above exemplary ranges, that is, the specific values of the first preset threshold and the second preset threshold can be flexibly adjusted according to different specific environments.

In this embodiment, the cleaning device 200 is disposed outside the casing 100 and located on the same side of the casing 100 as the air inlet 110. The sweeping device 200 mainly includes a holder 210, a dust removing mechanism 220, and a driving mechanism 230.

The holder 210 mainly serves to accommodate and support the fixing, and is movably disposed to the housing 100. The holder 210 has a substantially square hollow structure and is divided into a first plate 211, and a second plate 212, a third plate 213, a fourth plate 214, and a fifth plate 215 sequentially connected to each edge of the first plate 211. The first plate 211, the second plate 212, the third plate 213, the fourth plate 214, the fifth plate 215 and the housing 100 enclose a receiving cavity.

Referring to fig. 5 to 8, the first plate 211 is disposed parallel to the surface of the housing 100 where the air inlet 110 is located. The first plate 211 has a longitudinal section in a longitudinal direction thereof substantially stepped, and includes a first portion distant from the housing 100 and a second portion close to the housing 100, and the first portion of the first plate 211 is provided with a dust outlet 2110. The second plate 212, the third plate 213, the fourth plate 214, the fifth plate 215 and the first plate 211 are substantially perpendicular to each other. The upper edge of the second plate 212 is integrally connected to the left edge of the first plate 211 (i.e., the left edge of the first portion); the upper edge of the third plate 213 is integrally connected to the front edge of the first plate 211; the upper edge of the fourth plate body 214 is integrally connected to the right edge (i.e., the right edge of the second portion) of the first plate body 211; the upper edge of the fifth plate body 215 is integrally connected to the rear edge of the first plate body 211; the lower edges of the second plate 212, the third plate 213 and the fifth plate 215 extend toward the casing 100 with a slight gap from the casing 100, so that the support 210 can move on the casing 100. In other embodiments, the first plate 211, the second plate 212, the third plate 213, the fourth plate 214, and the fifth plate 215 may be connected in a split manner.

In this embodiment, the housing 100 is provided with a rotating shaft 150, and the support 210 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 150.

Specifically, referring to fig. 9, a stepped through hole 2112 is further disposed at a first portion of the first plate 211, a portion of the through hole 2112 with a smaller diameter is far away from the housing 100, and a bearing is fixed at a portion of the through hole 2112 with a larger diameter. The shaft 150 may be divided into a journal, a first shaft body, a shoulder, and a second shaft body, which are integrally connected in sequence. The housing 100 is formed with a mounting hole concentric with the inlet 110, and a journal portion of the rotation shaft 150 is inserted into and fixedly coupled with the mounting hole. The second shaft portion of the shaft 150 is fixedly connected to the inner race of the bearing.

Accordingly, the holder 210 can rotate about the axis of the rotation shaft 150 by an external force. An interface for connecting a projector hoisting rod is further arranged on the end face of the second shaft body part of the rotating shaft 150, so that the projector can be hoisted on a ceiling or a wall.

In this embodiment, the dust removing mechanism 220 is disposed in the accommodating cavity, corresponds to the dust outlet 2110, and is electrically connected to the controller, and the controller controls to clean the impurities at the air inlet 110 of the housing 100 when the temperature inside and outside the housing 100 meets the condition.

Further, the dust removing mechanism 220 includes a dust removing member 221 and a first driving member 223. The dust removing member 221 is rotatably disposed on the support 210 and corresponds to the dust outlet 2110. The first driving member 223 is mounted on the support 210, is located in the accommodating cavity formed by the support 210 and the housing 100, and is electrically connected to the controller to drive the dust removing member 221 to rotate.

The first plate 211 extends toward the housing 100 at a position between the inlet 110 and the rotating shaft 150 to form a partition 222, and the partition 222 is opposite to the second plate 212. The first driving member 223 is a motor, and is electrically connected to the controller through a connecting plate 224 and is mounted on the side of the first plate 211 close to the housing 100. The output end of the first driving member 223 passes through the partition 222 and then points to the second plate 212, wherein an annular gap is left between the output end of the first driving member 223 and the partition 222. A connecting rod 225 is disposed between the second plate 212 and the partition 222, one end of the connecting rod 225 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first driving member 223, and the other end of the connecting rod 225 is rotatably inserted into the second plate 212. The dust removing member 221 is an object capable of cleaning, such as a dust removing brush or a dust removing cloth, and is wound around the connecting rod 225. Therefore, when the temperature relationship inside and outside the housing 100 meets the condition, the first driving member 223 is started by receiving a first command from the controller to drive the dust removing member 221 to rotate, so as to clean the impurities at the air inlet 110 of the housing 100, and the cleaned impurities can be discharged from the dust outlet 2110; meanwhile, the partition 222 can partition the first driving member 223 from the dust removing member 221, thereby preventing impurities swept by the dust removing member 221 from entering the inside of the first driving member 223, resulting in damage to the first driving member 223.

In this embodiment, the driving mechanism 230 is disposed on the support 210 and electrically connected to the controller, for driving the support 210 to move on the casing 100, so that the area swept by the dust removing mechanism 220 completely covers the area of the air inlet 110.

The driving mechanism 230 includes a second driving member 231 and a transmission member 232. Specifically, the second driving member 231 may be a motor, and is mounted on the second portion of the first board body 211 and electrically connected to the controller. The output end of the second driving member 231 passes through the second portion of the first plate 211 along a direction parallel to the rotating shaft 150 and then extends into the receiving cavity. The transmission member 232 is connected between the output end of the second driving member 231 and the rotating shaft 150 for transmitting torque, in this embodiment, the transmission member 232 is two gears meshed with each other, one gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the second driving member 231 as an input portion, and the other gear is fixedly connected to the first shaft body portion of the rotating shaft 150 as an output portion. Therefore, when the air inlet 110 needs to be cleaned, the second driving member 231 is started, the torque of the second driving member 231 is transmitted to the rotating shaft 150, and since the rotating shaft 150 is fixedly connected with the housing 100, the support 210 rotates around the rotating shaft 150, and simultaneously the first driving member 223 is started to drive the dust removing member 221 to rotate, so as to clean the impurities such as dust, hair and the like at the air inlet 110 on the housing 100. In other embodiments, the transmission 232 may also be a chain, belt drive.

In this embodiment, the projector further includes an adsorption device 300, and the adsorption device 300 is disposed corresponding to the dust outlet 2110 and electrically connected to the controller for collecting impurities such as dust and hair from the dust outlet 2110.

In the present embodiment, the filter 332 is disposed in the air duct of the fixing member 331. Mainly comprising a first filter 3321 and a second filter 3322. The first filter screen 3321 is disposed in the fixing member 331 between the dust outlet 2110 and the suction opening of the blower 320, and is used for coarse filtering. Specifically, the outer edge of the first filter 3321 is fixedly connected to the middle portion of the fixing member 331, and the middle portion of the first filter 3321 protrudes in the wind flow direction, i.e., away from the dust outlet 2110, and is close to the air suction opening of the fan 320, so that when the fan 320 is started, large-sized impurities such as dust and/or hair with large particles discharged from the dust outlet 2110 can be filtered.

And a second filter screen 3322 disposed between the first filter screen 3321 and the suction opening of the fan 320 in the fixing member 331, for fine filtering. Specifically, the second filter 3322 extends in a horizontal plane, and an outer edge of the second filter 3322 is fixedly connected to an end of the fixing member 331 away from the dust outlet 2110 and is therefore located between the first filter 3321 and the air suction opening of the fan 320, so that when the fan 320 is started, a large volume of impurities, such as dust and/or hair, with a small volume after coarse filtration through the first filter 3321 can be filtered.

In this embodiment, the dust collector 330 further includes a flow guiding member 333, and the flow guiding member 333 is disposed in the air channel of the fixing member 331 and located between the dust outlet 2110 and the filter member 332. The air guide 333 has a passage having one end communicating with the dust outlet 2110 and the other end extending in the wind flow direction, i.e., in a direction away from the dust outlet 2110 and close to the filter member 332, wherein the port area of the other end of the air guide 333 is gradually reduced in the extending direction. Specifically, the flow guide member 333 is funnel-shaped, a channel is an inner hole of the flow guide member 333, one end of the flow guide member 333 with a larger caliber is connected to an inner wall of one end of the fixing member 331 close to the dust outlet 2110, and the other end with a smaller caliber extends toward the first filter screen 3321, so that the flow guide member 333 can prevent impurities such as dust, hair and the like discharged from the dust outlet 2110 from being raised, and after the fan 320 is stopped, the impurities fall into an annular collecting groove formed between the flow guide member 333 and the fixing member 331 for storage.

Thus, according to the projector provided by the embodiment, the first detecting element 130, the second detecting element 140, the controller, the cleaning device 200 and the adsorbing device 300 together form a impurity cleaning system, which together realize the cleaning of impurities such as dust and hair at the air inlet 110 on the projector housing 100 and the collection of the cleaned impurities. It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the fan 320 is controlled by the controller to operate and stop simultaneously with the first driving element 223 and the second driving element 231, that is, the cleaning device 200 and the suction device 300 are operated synchronously. Of course, in other embodiments, the fan 320 may be operated asynchronously, and may be operated all the time after the sweeping device 200 is operated, so as to suck the impurities onto the filter member 332.

The working principle of the projector provided by the embodiment is as follows:

according to the using environment of the projector, for example, the projector is generally hung on a wall or a ceiling, a first preset threshold and a second preset threshold are set in a program, when the projector works, the first detection element 130 detects a first temperature value outside the projector, the second detection element 140 detects a second temperature value inside the projector, and the first detection element 130 and the second detection element 140 respectively send data of the first temperature value T1 and the second temperature value T2 to the controller.

After receiving the data of the first temperature value T1 and the second temperature value T2, the controller determines that the difference Δ T between the first temperature value T1 and the second temperature value T1 is T1-T2, and compares the difference with a preset first preset threshold T1.

If the difference value Δ T is smaller than the first preset threshold value T1, it indicates that the wind entering the projector from the air inlet 110 is sufficient, the heat dissipation effect of the projector is relatively good, and it is determined that the air inlet 110 is not blocked; if the difference Δ T is greater than or equal to the first preset threshold T2, it indicates that the wind entering the projector from the air inlet 110 is insufficient, the heat dissipation effect of the projector is poor, and it is determined that the air inlet 110 is seriously blocked.

At this time, the controller sends a first command to control the first driving member 223, the second driving member 231 and the fan 320 to start, the first driving member 223 drives the dust removing member 221 to rotate so as to clean impurities such as dust, hair and the like at the air inlet 110, and the impurities are converted into a free state to be conveniently discharged from the dust outlet 2110; the second driving member 231 drives the support 210 to rotate around the rotating shaft 150, so that the dust removing member 221 moves, and thus the area where the dust removing member 221 passes can completely cover the area of the air inlet 110, and a leakage area is avoided.

Meanwhile, the wind power generated by the fan 320 attracts the impurities discharged from the dust outlet 2110, and the impurities do not rise and gradually collect when passing through the flow guide member 333 under the action of the wind power, and are sequentially filtered and collected by the first filter screen 3321 and the second filter screen 3322.

With the operation of the cleaning device and the adsorption device 300, the impurities at the air inlet 110 are gradually reduced, the wind power entering the interior of the housing 100 is gradually increased, the temperature T2 in the interior of the housing 100 is gradually reduced, and if Δ T is greater than a second preset threshold T2, it indicates that the impurities at the air inlet 110 are not completely cleaned and the cleaning needs to be continued; if Δ T is less than or equal to T2, it indicates that the impurities at the air inlet 110 are substantially completely cleaned, and at this time, the first driving member 223, the second driving member 231, and the fan 320 are stopped, and the impurities collected on the filtering member 332 will fall into the collecting tank between the guiding member 333 and the fixing member 331.

Since the holder 310 is detachably mounted to the holder 210 and the dust container 330 is detachably mounted in the holder 310, the dust container 330 can be removed at regular intervals for cleaning and replacement.
