To provide a better understanding of the pool cleaning apparatus of the present application, it will be further explained and illustrated below. As shown in fig. 1 to 3, the body 1 has a first suction port 11, a second suction port 12, and a discharge port 13, and the discharge port 13 can communicate with the first suction port 11 and the second suction port 12. The first suction port 11 is used to suck in debris from the water surface when the pool cleaning apparatus is floating on the water surface. The second suction inlet 12 is used for sucking the sundries on the bottom of the machine body 1, and when the pool cleaning device is sunk on the bottom of the pool, the second suction inlet 12 can suck the sundries on the bottom of the pool.

In a possible embodiment, the first suction port 11 may be located on a side wall of the body 1. When the pool cleaning apparatus is moved while floating on the water, water naturally flows into the first suction port 11, thereby filtering the foreign materials floating on the water. When the pool cleaning apparatus is floating on the water, the first suction port 11 can be located at substantially the height of the water, and as a matter of course, the lowest point of the first suction port 11 can be lower than the height of the water, and the highest point of the first suction port 11 can be higher than the height of the water, so that the first suction port 11 can suck the debris floating on the water most efficiently. Discharge port 13 can be located the optional position of organism 1, and as preferred, when swimming pool cleaning device floated on the surface of water, discharge port 13 can be located the surface of water high department, can be convenient for debris collection mechanism 5 filters aquatic debris when discharging inspiratory water, and the debris of collecting after avoiding filtering causes too big resistance to the advancing of swimming pool cleaning device in the aquatic. Preferably, the first suction port 11 and the discharge port 13 are disposed at opposite ends of the body 1, for example, the first suction port 11 is disposed at a front end of the body 1, and the discharge port 13 is disposed at a rear end of the body 1, so that the body 1 can facilitate the first suction port 11 to suck in impurities on the water surface during forward movement, and the discharge port 13 at the rear end discharges the sucked water, so that the discharge of the water at the rear end does not cause resistance to the forward movement of the pool cleaning apparatus in water, but instead generates a thrust to the forward movement of the pool cleaning apparatus in water, thereby promoting the forward movement of the pool cleaning apparatus in water. The second suction inlet 12 can be located at the bottom of the machine body 1, so that the impurities below the bottom of the machine body 1 can be directly sucked, and when the swimming pool cleaning device sinks at the bottom of the swimming pool to move, the second suction inlet 12 can automatically suck the impurities at the bottom of the swimming pool. When the pool cleaning apparatus is placed on the side of the pool wall, the second suction port 12 can suck the impurities in the side wall of the pool.

In one possible embodiment, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, the pool cleaning apparatus can comprise: a fluid driving mechanism 3. The fluid driving mechanism 3 is disposed in the machine body 1, and the fluid driving mechanism 3 is used for driving the fluid to flow from the first suction port 11 or the second suction port 12 to the discharge port 13, so as to improve the effect that the first suction port 11 and the second suction port 12 can suck the water in the swimming pool, and further to suck the impurities in the water together. The fluid driving mechanism 3 may be a rotatable impeller 31, and the impeller 31 is driven by a rotating mechanism 9, such as a motor. A first flow passage 14 is formed between the first suction port 11 and the discharge port 13, a second flow passage 15 is formed between the second suction port 12 and the discharge port 13, and two fluid drive mechanisms 3 are provided in the first flow passage 14 and the second flow passage 15, respectively. In order to save the number of the fluid driving mechanism 3, the first flow passage 14 and the second flow passage 15 have an overlapping portion, the overlapping portion is positioned as the third flow passage 16, and the fluid driving mechanism 3 can be disposed in the third flow passage 16, so that one fluid driving mechanism 3 can drive the fluid to flow from the first suction port 11 to the discharge port 13 and from the second suction port 12 to the discharge port 13.

When the pool cleaning apparatus is floating on the water surface, it is preferable that the fluid driving mechanism 3 is at a lower height than the water surface so that the water flows to the fluid driving mechanism 3 and the fluid driving mechanism 3 can drive the water to flow. The height of the first flow path 14 from the first suction port 11 to the fluid driving mechanism 3 decreases so that when the pool cleaning apparatus floats on the water, water automatically flows from the first suction port 11 to the fluid driving mechanism 3 and fills the first flow path 14 from the first suction port 11 to the fluid driving mechanism 3.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the flow passage switching mechanism 6 has two operating positions. In the first operating position, the first suction port 11 communicates with the discharge port 13, and the second suction port 12 is disconnected from the discharge port 13. This allows the water discharged from the discharge port 13 to be sucked through the first suction port 11, which facilitates the collection and treatment of the foreign materials floating on the water surface when the pool cleaning apparatus floats on the water surface. In the second operating position, the first suction port 11 is disconnected from the discharge port 13, and the second suction port 12 is communicated with the discharge port 13. This allows water from the discharge port 13 to be sucked through the second suction port 12, which facilitates the collection and disposal of debris from the bottom of the pool or debris from the side walls of the pool as the pool cleaning apparatus sinks to the bottom or side walls of the pool.
