The dust blocking strip enables the blackboard eraser to form a sealed dust cover when being in contact with and extruded with the blackboard surface, dust generated during blackboard erasing is sealed in the dust cover, the problem that chalk dust generated during blackboard erasing of the blackboard eraser flies around when the blackboard eraser moves from top to bottom and from left to right is solved, passive chalk dust suction of teachers and students is well avoided, and body health of the teachers and students is protected. In this embodiment, the material of the dust blocking strip is sponge. The sponge has certain dust absorption and sound absorption effects, and can not generate noise while playing a dustproof sealing effect.
The base plate 202 is provided with two dust falling holes respectively located below the pair of rubber blocks 600, the dust chamber 30 is communicated with the first cavity 21 through the two dust falling holes, and chalk dust brushed off by the brush 500 falls into the dust chamber 30 from the two dust falling holes. In addition, the housing 1 is provided with a dust discharging hole which is positioned at the lower part of the dust chamber 30 and is provided with a hole plug, when the chalk dust in the dust chamber 30 is accumulated more, the hole plug on the dust discharging hole is taken down, the chalk dust is emptied, and then the hole plug is arranged on the dust discharging hole.
When the blackboard eraser is erased, the blackboard eraser is longitudinally held, can transversely move left and right and also can longitudinally move up and down, the dust erasing belt 420 generates friction force under the extrusion of the blackboard and the roller 410, and moves towards the direction opposite to the moving direction of the blackboard eraser under the driving of the roller 420 and rotates towards the inside of the inner shell 2; when the ash scraping belt 420 rotates to contact the rubber block 600 of the inner shell 2, the rubber module 600 applies equal pressure and friction force to the ash scraping belt 420 according to the pressure and friction force transmitted by the ash scraping belt 420, and the ash scraping belt 420 is prevented from rolling rapidly; the first straight section of the dust wiping belt 420 stained with the chalk dust rotates to the second straight section position to be in contact with the brush 500, and the chalk dust on the dust wiping belt 420 is brushed away by the brush 500; the falling dust falls into the dust chamber 30 through two dust falling holes below the inner casing 2. An ash discharge hole is arranged below the ash deposition chamber 30, when more chalk dust is accumulated in the ash deposition chamber 30, a hole plug on the ash discharge hole is taken down, the chalk dust is emptied, and then the hole plug is arranged on the ash discharge hole. Therefore, the blackboard eraser moves transversely to erase the blackboard, the dust erasing belt 420 generates friction force under the extrusion of the blackboard and the roller 410, the dust erasing belt 420 rotates towards the inner shell 2 along with the rotation of the roller 410, after the dust erasing belt rolls to the brush 500 below the dust erasing belt 420, the chalk dust on the dust erasing belt 420 is brushed off by the brush 500, and the dust removing and cleaning effect of the dust erasing belt 420 is realized. The blackboard eraser can realize the dust removal of the edge-erasing blackboard edges no matter the blackboard eraser moves up and down and left and right, and is very convenient and practical; meanwhile, the dust blocking strip is contacted and extruded with the blackboard when the blackboard is erased to form a sealed dust cover, and dust generated when the blackboard is erased is sealed in the dust cover, so that the damage and pollution caused by flying dust are greatly reduced.
