The body 11 is further formed with a liquid liquid temporary storage tank 16 in a space below the chamber 12, and a chamber between the chamber 12 and the liquid liquid temporary storage tank 16 is provided to control the chamber 12 and the liquid liquid temporary storage 16 Whether the slot is connected to the first control valve 17, and a drain port 18 communicating with the outside is formed at the bottom of the water liquid storage slot 16, and a drain port 18 is provided at the drain port 18 to control whether the water liquid storage slot 16 is A second control valve 19 that is externally connected.

A vacuum pump 21 is disposed above the chamber 12 and located in the cover body 111. The vacuum pump 21 has an intake end 211 and an air outlet end 212, and an intake end 211 extends in the chamber 12. The vacuum pump 21 is provided with a through hole 213 on the side of the air inlet 112 of the cover 111, and an intake switching valve 214 is disposed in the through hole 213 to be normally closed. The vacuum pump 21 is provided. Mainly, the air in the chamber 12 can be forcibly discharged to form a negative pressure, and a floating ball sensor 22 is provided at a position opposite to the lower end of the intake end 211 of the vacuum pump 21, and the floating ball sensor 22 can be subjected to water. The buoyancy force drives the intake end 211 of the vacuum pump 21 upwardly, and the outlet end 212 of the vacuum pump 21 is connected with a downwardly extending exhaust flow passage 23, and the exhaust flow passage 23 is arranged. The air end is further branched to form a first branch 231 and a second branch 232, wherein the first branch 231 has an exhaust port communicating with the outside. 4, and a third control valve 25 is provided in the first branch 231 for controlling whether the air is discharged outward through the exhaust port 24, and between the third control valve 25 and the exhaust port 24 Further, an air filter 26 is disposed, and the second branch 232 extends downward and is connected to the top of the liquid temporary storage tank 16, and a controllable air is disposed in the second branch 232. It is discharged into the fourth control valve 27 of the water liquid storage tank 16.

In addition, the water level sensor 31 is provided with a water level sensor 31. In the embodiment, the water level sensor 31 is composed of a high water level meter 311 and a low water level meter 312. The control valves 17 The 19, 25, and 27 series are electrically connected to the water level sensor 31, respectively, and when the high water level gauge 311 of the water level sensor 31 senses that the predetermined amount of water is accumulated in the liquid liquid storage tank 16, the system is turned off. The first control valve 17 and the third control valve 25, and the second control valve 19 and the fourth control valve 27 are opened, so that the water liquid located in the water liquid storage tank 16 can be passed through the second branch 232. The discharged air is pressurized and is actually discharged outward from the drain port 18.

In the actual use of the wet and dry dust collecting device of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, when the vacuum pump 21 is started to operate, the first control valve 17 and the third control valve 25 are in an open state, and the second The control valve 19 and the fourth control valve 27 are in a closed state. At this time, the vacuum pump 21 can forcibly pass the air inside the chamber 12 through the first branch 231 of the exhaust runner 23 and the air filter. 26 and the exhaust port 24 are discharged to the outside of the chamber 12 to form a negative pressure inside the chamber 12, and the external debris or water can be continuously sucked through the suction pipe 14 and the suction port 13 The inside of the chamber 12, at which time the dust sucked through the suction pipe 14 is uniformly concentrated by the filter 15, and when the dust suction device of the present invention sucks in the liquid liquid, the water liquid passes through the gravity itself. The first control valve 17 flows into the liquid liquid storage tank 16 for storage.

When the water flowing into the water liquid storage tank 16 reaches the high water level value set by the high water level gauge 311 of the water level sensor 31, as shown in FIG. 3, the water level sensor 31 will cause The first control valve 17 and the third control valve 25 are in a closed state, and the second control valve 19 and the fourth control valve 27 are in an open state. At this time, the air forced to be discharged by the vacuum pump 21 is changed. The second branch 232 is discharged into the liquid liquid storage tank 16 and is pressurized by the air discharged from the second branch 232, so that the liquid liquid temporary storage tank can be reliably and quickly located. The water in the 16 is discharged outward from the drain port 18.

However, it must be particularly noted that the first control valve 17 is in a closed state when the dust suction device of the present invention performs the draining operation, and therefore is located in the chamber 12 when the water absorption speed is greater than the drainage speed thereof. The water level of the water may gradually increase. At this time, as shown in FIG. 4, when the water level in the chamber 12 is gradually increased, the float sensor 22 is driven to close the intake of the vacuum pump 21. At the end 211, the float sensor 22 synchronously transmits a switching signal to change the intake switching valve 214 located in the through hole 213 to an open state, so that the vacuum pump 21 can be inhaled by the air inlet 112. The air is discharged into the liquid liquid storage tank 16 by the second branch 232, and can also be placed in the liquid liquid temporary storage tank 16 by the air pressurization discharged into the liquid liquid temporary storage tank 16. The effect of the water liquid in the water is discharged from the drain port 18 reliably and quickly. On the other hand, when the water level in the chamber 12 is lowered until the float sensor 22 no longer closes the intake end 211 of the vacuum pump 21, the float sensor 22 transmits the switching signal again. The intake switching valve 214 is returned to the closed state, so that the vacuum pump 21 is restored to take in air through its intake end 211 and is discharged into the liquid temporary storage tank 16 via the second branch 232.

When the water level in the water liquid storage tank 16 is lowered to the low water level value set by the low water level gauge 312 of the water level sensor 31, it will return to the water level sensor 31 as shown in FIG. That is, the control valves 17, 19, 25, 27 are returned to the initial starting state, that is, the second control valve 19 and the fourth control valve 27 are in a closed state, and the first control valve 17 and the third control valve are closed. 25 is in an open state, so that the water sucked through the suction port 13 is again temporarily stored in the liquid liquid storage tank 16 via the first control valve 17.

It can be seen from the above description that the wet and dry dust collecting device of the present invention only needs to be switched by the vacuum pump 21 and the control valves 17, 19, 25, 27 to achieve the functions of vacuuming and draining, without additional drainage. The pump structure, and the present invention can be pressurized by the air discharged from the second branch 232 when the drainage operation is actually performed, so that the liquid liquid located in the liquid temporary storage tank 16 can be reliably and quickly passed. The drain port 18 is discharged outward.

Furthermore, the water level sensor 31 of the present invention can sense the amount of water in the liquid liquid storage tank 16 by its high and low water level gauges 311, 312, thereby achieving the effect of automatic drainage.

The disclosure of the above-described embodiments is intended to be illustrative of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

In summary, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can achieve the foregoing objectives and is in accordance with the provisions of the Patent Law. Therefore, the inventor of the present invention filed an application according to law.
