Referring to fig. 1 to 5, a dust collecting station 10 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is used for docking with a dust cup 20 of a vacuum cleaner to collect dust in the dust cup 20. The dust suction device may be a handheld dust collector, and the handheld dust collector generally comprises a main machine and a dust cup 20 detachably connected with the main machine. After the user uses up handheld dust catcher, dismantle dirt cup 20 with the host computer to place dirt cup 20 on collection dirt station 10, collection dirt station 10 collects the dust in dirt cup 20, thereby carries out automatic deashing in the dirt cup 20, need not manual intervention, convenient and fast more.

Specifically, the dust collecting station 10 includes a housing 1, a docking assembly 2, a dust collecting assembly 3 and a suction assembly 4, wherein the docking assembly 2 is configured to be mounted in docking with a dust cup 20, and the dust collecting assembly 3 is configured to collect dust in the dust cup 20. When the cup lid 201 of the dust cup 20 is opened after the dust cup 20 is docked with the docking assembly 2, the suction assembly 4 works to generate negative pressure inside the dust collection assembly 3, so that dust in the dust cup 20 flows into the dust collection assembly 3, and the operation is convenient and fast.

In the present embodiment, the housing 1 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and a through hole 11 is provided at an end of the housing 1 in the height direction of the housing 1. The docking assembly 2 includes an interface 21, and the interface 21 is disposed to communicate with the through hole 11. The interface 21 and the through hole 11 may be integrally formed, or may be separately formed and then fixedly connected by means of fastening, welding, or bonding. In the present embodiment, in order to simplify the manufacturing process, the interface 21 is integrally provided with the through hole 11, which may be realized by integral injection molding or the like. The interface 21 is configured to receive at least a portion of the dirt cup 20 when the dirt cup 20 is docked, so as to prevent dirt in the dirt cup 20 from leaking out of the dirt cup and contaminating the environment. Also, the interface 21 is provided at the top end of the housing 1 to facilitate the user's quick docking of the dirt cup 20 with the dust collection station 10. Meanwhile, after the dust cup 20 is connected to the interface 21, the lid 201 of the dust cup 20 is opened, and the inner space of the dust cup 20 can be communicated with the inner space of the dust collecting assembly 3, so that dust can be collected from the inside of the dust cup 20 to the inside of the dust collecting assembly 3.

The size of the interface 21 is adapted to the outer diameter of the dirt cup 20, so that the dirt cup 20 can be stably installed in the dust collecting station 10 without external force. Indeed, in other embodiments, the size of the interface 21 may be larger than the outer diameter of the dust cup 20, and a support member may be disposed on the housing 1 near the interface 21 to support the dust cup 20, which is not limited herein.

Further, in order that dust in the dust cup 20 does not remain inside the housing 1 to contaminate the inside of the dust collecting station 10 and cause a cleaning burden to a user when being collected in the dust collecting assembly 3, the docking assembly 2 further includes a guide 22, and the guide 22 is connected to the interface 21 to guide a flow direction of the dust. The shape of the guiding member 22 may be a cylinder, a rectangular parallelepiped or a prism with a vertically arranged inner wall, a cone with an obliquely arranged inner wall, or a sphere with a curved inner wall. In the present embodiment, the guide 22 has a hemispherical shape, and the inner wall of the guide 22 is smoothly disposed so that dust can move downward from the inner wall of the guide 22 into the dust collection assembly 3. Specifically, the guide member 22 has a first opening 221 communicating with the interface 21 and a second opening 222 communicating with the inside of the dust collection assembly 3, the first opening 221 having a diameter larger than that of the second opening 222, and is provided for the purpose of: the scattered dust can be gathered to flow into the dust collection component 3, and the dust collection efficiency is improved.

However, various bacteria are generally present in living environments, and dust coexists with the bacteria. The dust collecting device can make a large amount of bacteria and dust enter the dust cup 20 while cleaning the dust. Subsequently, bacteria and dust enter the dust collecting assembly 3 from the dust cup 20. Since the dust collecting assembly 3 is not cleaned in a short time, the dust collecting station 10 generally performs a warning operation after the dust in the dust collecting assembly 3 reaches a full dust level to remind the user to perform dust treatment on the dust collecting assembly 3. Therefore, the temperature maintained by the long-term closed state and the dust accumulation in the dust collection assembly 3 is more likely to cause the breeding of a large amount of bacteria, so that the dust collection station 10 generates peculiar smell and brings bad experience to users. Therefore, the dust collecting station 10 of the present invention further comprises a sterilization assembly 6, and the sterilization assembly 6 is used for sterilizing bacteria in the dust, so as to prevent subsequent bacteria growth and generation of peculiar smell.

Wherein the sterilization assembly 6 is disposed within the mouthpiece 21 and is located in a path of dust collection. Because at least a portion of the dirt cup 20 is received within the interface 21, the sterilization assembly 6 can sterilize a substantial portion of the dirt from bacteria. In particular, the sterilization assembly 6 is arranged on the guide 22 and close to the interface 21. It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the sterilization assembly 6 can not only sterilize the dust passing through the interface 21, but also sterilize the interior of the dust cup 20, thereby effectively preventing bacteria from growing inside the dust cup 20 and the dust collecting station 10. As described above, since the guide 22 in the present embodiment has a hemispherical shape, the sterilization unit 6 is annularly provided on the inner wall of the guide 22 in order to improve the sterilization efficiency, and thus the sterilization treatment can be performed without dead space for bacteria in the dust. In this embodiment, the sterilization assembly 6 is an ultraviolet lamp or an anion generator. When the sterilization component 6 is an ultraviolet lamp, organic pollutants pass through an ultraviolet irradiation area, ultraviolet rays penetrate cell membranes and cell nuclei of organisms, the ultraviolet rays are absorbed by base pairs of DNA or RNA, photochemical action is carried out, genetic materials of the cells are changed, and therefore the activity of the genetic materials of the cells is lost, and microorganisms cannot reproduce or die in a short time. The ultraviolet lamp has an irradiation range, and when the dust cup 20 is installed in the interface 21, the ultraviolet lamp is disposed close to the interface 21, so that at least a part of the dust cup 20 is located in the irradiation range of the ultraviolet lamp. When the sterilization assembly 6 is an anion generator, anions generated in the anion generator are combined with bacteria, so that the bacteria generate structural change or energy transfer, and the bacteria die and finally sink on the ground. The bacteria in the air are reduced rapidly, and the negative ions can be combined with the dust to precipitate, so that the falling of the dust is accelerated. And the negative ions can move, so the negative ions can move to the interior of the dust cup 20 and the dust collecting component 3 to respectively sterilize the dust in the dust cup 20, the interface 21 and the dust collecting component 3.
