DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The following describes the implementation of the disclosure through specific embodiments, and those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the disclosure from the content disclosed in this specification. The disclosure may also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments. Various details in this specification may also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the disclosure.

It should be noted that figures provided in these embodiments only illustrate a basic idea of the disclosure in a schematic manner. The figures only show the assemblies related to the disclosure instead of drawing according to number, shape and size of the assemblies in actual implementation. In its actual implementation, type, quantity, and ratio of each assembly may be changed at will, and its assembly layout type may also be more complicated.

The conventional handheld vacuum cleaners still have following shortcomings:

The conventional handheld vacuum cleaners will generate a lot of static electricity when they absorb dust during use. If the static electricity is not discharged in time, the static electricity will accumulate, the accumulated static electricity will harm the whole circuit on the one hand, and on the other hand, a large amount of the static electricity will be released instantly when touched by the user, which will cause electric shock to the user.

Mounting and fastening of the battery pack in the conventional handheld vacuum cleaner results in inconvenient disassembly of the battery pack, so that the battery pack may only be charged together with the handheld vacuum cleaner instead of being charged separately.

Due to unreasonable design of the positions and sizes of the dirt suction inlet of the dirt cup and the dirt suction inlet of the vacuum cleaner brush of the conventional handheld vacuum cleaner, the vacuum cleaner has low dirt suction efficiency.

Due to unreasonable structural layout of the conventional handheld vacuum cleaner, it does not conform to ergonomics, which affects the user's experience.

Due to unreasonable layout position of the display of the conventional handheld vacuum cleaner, the user cannot understand and adjust relevant operation parameters of the handheld vacuum cleaner in real time, which affects the user's experience.

Due to unreasonable structure of the dirt separation unit of the conventional handheld vacuum cleaner, it results in an unsatisfactory separation effect on a separation and screening of debris and dust particles in the dirty air.

The structure layout and fixing of the motor of the conventional handheld vacuum cleaner are unreasonable, which not only affects operation, but also generates a lot of noise.

The conventional vacuum cleaners generally need to be equipped with special accessories for vacuum cleaners to remove dust during use. Vacuum cleaner accessories include floor brushes, mite removal brushes, flat suction, square brushes, dual-purpose brushes, etc. Users can replace the accessories according to their needs. The conventional connection structure cannot realize quick disassembly and assembly.

A vertical locking structure of the conventional vacuum cleaner brush basically relies on an elastic pre-tightening structure. Such a structure may cause abrasion. After material is used for a period of time, the structure is easy to fail and generate very harsh friction noise.

In addition, the conventional handheld vacuum cleaners have a wide variety of vacuum cleaner brushes. According to the applicable models, they can be divided into brush heads for vertical vacuum cleaners and brushes for horizontal vacuum cleaners. Generally, a brush for a vertical vacuum cleaner is directly connected with a main bracket of the vacuum cleaner movably for use. A brush for a horizontal vacuum cleaner is usually detachably connected with a telescopic connecting rod for a user to hold and to be expanded/contracted for use.

At present, in an electric brush of a vacuum cleaner on the market, when cleaning the floor, the agitator brush tends to be entangled with hairs, especially when excessive hairs accumulate in gaps between left and right end surfaces of an agitator brush and inner surfaces of the left and right covers, a friction medium will be formed. Then heat is generated due to the friction of the agitator brush at a high speed, so that side covers and end surfaces of the agitator brush are partially deformed and melted, which causes the agitator brush to jam and fail to work normally. Therefore, the vacuum cleaner brush in the conventional art also needs to be improved.

Please refer to FIG. 1. The disclosure provides a handheld vacuum cleaner 100. The handheld vacuum cleaner 100 includes a housing 10, a dirt collection unit 20 mounted on the housing 10, a suction generating unit 30, an air tube unit 40, a battery pack 50 and a brush assembly 60.

Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 17 and FIG. 18. The housing 10 includes a body 11 arranged along a first direction AA, a holding portion 12 extending outward from one side of the body 11 along a second direction BB, and a base 13 located at an end of the holding portion 12 away from the body 11. The body 11 is provided with an accommodation groove 111, an air inlet channel 112, a locking assembly 113, a bounce structure 114 and a first limiting portion 115 arranged along the first direction AA. A cross section of the accommodating groove 111 is substantially arc-shaped for housing the dirt collection unit 20 and the suction generating unit 30. The air inlet channel 112 includes a first air inlet 1121 and a first air outlet 1122. The first air inlet 1121 is arranged along the first direction AA. The first air outlet 1122 passes through a bottom wall of the accommodating groove 111 to match the dirt collection unit 20 in the accommodating groove 111, so that airflow entering from the first air inlet 1121 is introduced into the dirt collection unit 20 through a first dirt suction inlet 212 (shown in FIG. 5) of the dirt collection unit 20. The locking assembly 113 is arranged at a bottom of the accommodating groove 111 and is configured to match the dirt collection unit 20 so as to fix the dirt collection unit 20 and the suction generating unit 30 in the accommodating groove 111. The locking assembly 113 includes a second lock 1131, a second elastic component 1132 matched with the second lock 1131, and an unlocking button 1133 mounted on the second lock 1131. By pressing the unlocking button, the suction generating unit 30 may be lifted up by the bounce structure 114. The second lock 1131 is slidably mounted on the body 11 along a third direction CC, the third direction CC is perpendicular to the first direction AA. One end of the second elastic component 1132 abuts against the body 11, and the other end abuts against the unlocking button 1133. When the unlocking button 1133 is pressed, the second lock 1131 slides along the third direction CC, and then the second elastic component 1132 is elastically deformed. When the unlocking button 1133 is released, the second elastic component 1132 is reset, thereby driving the second lock 1131 and the unlocking button 1133 to be reset. In this embodiment, one end of the second elastic component 1132 abuts against the body 11, and the other end abuts against the unlocking button 1133. However, it should be understood that, in other embodiments, the second elastic component 1132 may also be configured that one end of the second elastic component 1132 abuts against the body 11 and the other end abuts against the second lock 1131. Please refer to FIG. 2, the bounce structure 114 is mounted on the bottom wall of the accommodating groove 111 to match the suction generating unit 30. The bounce structure 114 includes a thimble 1141 and a first elastic component 1142 matched with the thimble 1141. In this embodiment, the bounce structure 114 is arranged to face the suction generating unit 30. However, it should be understood that in other embodiments, the bounce structure 114 may also be arranged to face the dirt collection unit 20 so as to match the dirt collection unit 20. The first limiting portion 115 is located in the accommodating groove 111 and faces the suction generating unit 30. When the unlocking button 1133 is pressed to release the dirt collection unit 20, the bounce structure 114 may lift up the suction generating unit 30, and the suction generating unit 30 rotates around a first pivot component 301 described below, so that the suction generating unit 30 drives the dirt collection unit 20 to be separated from the accommodating groove 111.

Please refer to FIG. 17, FIG. 22 through FIG. 29. In some embodiments, the locking assembly 113 further includes a third elastic component 1134. One end of the third elastic component 1134 abuts against the second lock 1131, and the other end abuts against the unlocking button 1133. When the unlocking button 1133 is pressed, the third elastic component 1134 is elastically deformed and drives the second lock 1131 to slide along the third direction CC, and then the second elastic component 1132 is elastically deformed. When the unlocking button 1133 is released, the second lock 1131 is reset under an action of the second elastic component 1132, and the unlocking button 1133 is reset under an action of the third elastic component 1134. In this embodiment, the second lock 1131 and the unlocking button 1133 are two independent components. However, in other embodiments, the second lock 1131 and the unlocking button 1133 may also be a whole. In this case, the third elastic component 1134 does not need to be arranged between the second lock 1131 and the unlocking button 1133.

Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 5 and FIG. 24, the dirt collection unit 20 is mounted on the suction generating unit 30 to match the air inlet channel 112 on the housing 10 to collect dust, dirt, etc. The dirt collection unit 20 includes a dirt cup 21, a filter assembly (not shown), a cup cover 23 and a fourth elastic component 24. In this embodiment, the dirt cup 21 is cylindrical. A side wall of the dirt cup 21 is provided with a first dirt suction inlet. The first dirt suction inlet may be rectangular, for example, which corresponds to a position of the first air outlet 1122 of the air inlet channel 112, and the airflow entering from the first air inlet 1121 is introduced into the dirt collection unit 20 through the first dirt suction inlet (shown in FIG. 5) of the dirt collection unit 20. An axis of the dirt cup 21 is parallel to the first direction AA. A side of the dirt cup 21 facing the accommodating groove 111 is provided with a first lock 211 matched with the second lock 1131 of the locking assembly 113, so that the dirt collection unit 20 may be fixed in the accommodating groove 111 through a matching of the first lock 211 and the second lock 1131. In this embodiment, the first lock 211 is arranged on the dirt collection unit 20, and the locking assembly 113 is arranged to face the dirt collection unit 20. However, it should be understood that in other embodiments, the first lock 211 may also be arranged on the suction generating unit 30, and the locking assembly 113 is arranged to face the suction generating unit 30 at this time. The cup cover 23 is pivotally mounted on the dirt cup 21. One end of the fourth elastic component 24 abuts against the dirt cup 21, and the other end abuts against the cup cover 23. When the dirt collection unit 20 is separated from the accommodating groove 111, the cup cover 23 is automatically opened under an action of the fourth elastic component 24, so that a user may pour out dirt in the dirt cup 21. When the dirt collection unit 20 is housed in the accommodating groove 111, a side wall of the accommodating groove 111 is facing the cup cover 23 and abuts against the cup cover 23, so that the cup cover 23 is closed. At this time, the fourth elastic component 24 is elastically deformed. In this embodiment, the fourth elastic component 24 is a torsion spring. Please refer to FIG. 3. In some embodiments, the body 11 is further provided with a resisting structure 116 matched with the cup cover 23. The resisting structure 116 includes a resisting portion 1161 and a fifth elastic component (not shown) matched with the resisting portion 1161. When the dirt collection unit 20 is housed in the accommodating groove 111, the resisting structure 116 abuts against the cup cover 23, so that the cup cover 23 is in a closed state, and the fourth elastic component 24 is elastically deformed at this time.

Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 4, and FIG. 5. The suction generating unit 30 is pivotally mounted on the body 11 through the first pivot component 301 so that the suction generating unit 30 may rotate around the first pivot component 301. In this embodiment, the first pivot component 301 is a pivot shaft, but it should be understood that in other embodiments, the first pivot component 301 may also be a shaft hole. The suction generating unit 30 includes a body shell 31, a first motor (not shown) arranged in the body shell 31, an impeller (not shown) mounted on the first motor, and an air outlet portion. The body shell 31 is provided with a housing cavity 311, a display screen 312 (as shown in FIG. 1), and a second limiting portion 313. The housing cavity 311 is used for housing the first motor and the impeller. The display screen 312 is configured to display work information of the handheld vacuum cleaner 100. The work information may be power information, charging status information, full-dirt warning information, congestion information, and so on. In some embodiments, the display screen 311 is perpendicular to an axis (which means a first reference line L1 mentioned above) of the first motor. An axis of a motor assembly 34 is parallel to the first direction AA. The second limiting portion 313 is configured to match the first limiting portion 115 to limit a rotation range of the suction generating unit 30. When the first limiting portion 115 abuts against the second limiting portion 313, the suction generating unit 30 may not rotate around the first pivot component 301 in a direction away from the body 11. In this embodiment, the second limiting portion 313 is arranged on the suction generating unit 30, and the first limiting portion 115 is facing the suction generating unit 30. However, it should be understood that in other embodiments, the second limiting portion 313 may also be arranged on the dirt collection unit 20, and the first limiting portion 115 is facing the dirt collection unit 20 at this time. An air outlet portion 32 is arranged at an end of the body shell 31 away from the display screen 312 and is connected and matched with the dirt collection unit 20.

Please refer to FIG. 1 through FIG. 4, the holding portion 12 extends from the bottom of the accommodating groove 111 outwardly along the second direction BB. The holding portion 12 includes a handle 123 and a supporting bracket 124 that are arranged parallel to each other. The handle 123 and the supporting bracket 124 are located between the body 11 and the base 13. The handle 123, the supporting bracket 124, the body 11 and the base 13 together define a parallelogram. In order to eliminate an impact of a large amount of static electricity generated by a dirt absorption of the handheld vacuum cleaner 100 on a human body and electronic components during use, the handle 123 is covered with a static conducting portion 125. The static conducting portion 125 may be electrically connected with a static generating portion (defined as a part where the handheld vacuum cleaner generates static electricity during a process of absorbing dust and dirt, for example, an air tube 41 of the air tube unit 40, the dirt cup 21 of the dirt collection unit 20, etc.) through a metal wire. During an operation of the handheld vacuum cleaner 100, static electricity will be generated on the static generating portion. Since the static generating portion is electrically connected with the static conducting portion 125 of the holding portion 12, static electricity will be transmitted along the metal wire to the static conducting portion 125 of the holding portion, and then transmitted into earth through the human body in time. In an embodiment of the disclosure, one end of the metal wire is fixedly mounted in the air tube 41. The metal wire is attached to an inner wall of the air tube 41 and passes through the housing under the accommodating groove 111. The other end of the metal wire is connected with the bounce structure 114, a bottom of the bounce structure 114 is connected with the static conducting portion 125, and the generated static electricity is led out through the static conducting portion 125. In other embodiments of the disclosure, the metal wire may also be connected with the static conducting portion 125 in other ways. A material of the static conducting portion 125 may be, for example, a conductive ABS rubber (a resistivity may be, for example, from 1070 to 10120), a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer rubber added with conductive impurities (conductive TPU, a resistivity may be from 1040 to 1090, for example) and other conductive non-metallic materials. Conductive non-metallic materials may avoid a problem of electric shocks that affect the user's experience when using other static electricity lead-out structures like metal wires. Conductive non-metallic materials may improve efficiency of electrostatic conduction without affecting holding, appearance and safety.

Please refer to FIG. 1 through FIG. 4, the static conducting portion 125 may be substantially S-shaped, or may be arranged in any shape that a hand may cover when the handle 123 is held. The static conducting portion 125 includes a first covering portion 1251 that covers a part of a surface of the handle 123 and a second covering portion 1252 that covers a side of a buckle portion close to the body 11. The first covering portion 1251 and the second covering portion 1252 are connected with each other. One end (bottom end) of the first covering portion 1251 close to the base 13 is arranged on a side of the handle 123 away from the supporting bracket 124. One end (top end) of the first covering portion 1251 close to the body 11 is arranged on a side of the handle 123 close to the supporting bracket 124. This may ensure that when the handle 123 of the holding portion 12 is held, no matter how the handle 123 of holding portion 12 is held, the hand is in contact with the static conducting portion 125, which realizes an all-round contact, ensures the efficiency of static electricity conduction, avoids damage to a circuit of the handheld vacuum cleaner and the electric shock to the user by an accumulation of static electricity, and improves the user's experience. In addition, since the static conducting portion 125 arranges only in a partial area of the holding portion 12, production cost may be reduced. A switch button 121 and a lug boss 122 are arranged on the side of the handle 123 close to the supporting bracket 124. The switch button 121 is arranged close to the body 11, and the lug boss 122 is arranged on a side of the switch button 121 away from the body 11. The static conducting portion 125 is provided with a button notch 1254 at a position corresponding to the lug boss 122. The button notch 1254 and an annular opening 1253 of the first covering portion 1251 for the handle to pass through penetrate with each other. As an example, the static conducting portion 125 may be arranged on the holding portion 12 in a form of an encapsulation, or may be integrally with the holding portion 12, which simplifies a preparation process of the static conducting portion 125.

Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 2 and FIG. 4, there is an angle α between the holding portion 12 and the body 11. The angle α is from 80 degrees to 140 degrees. In some embodiments, the angle α is from 90 degrees to 120 degrees, for example. In some embodiments, the angle α is from 105 degrees to 115 degrees, for example, 107 degrees, 110 degrees, 113 degrees. A height of the holding portion 12 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction AA is H. The height H is from 85 mm to 110 mm. The holding portion 12 is further provided with the switch button 121 and the lug boss 122. The switch button 121 is configured to control the operation of the handheld vacuum cleaner 100. The lug boss 122 is on a side of the switch button 121 away from the body 11 for the user to apply a lifting force through the lug boss 122 when the user holds the holding portion 12, and it may also protect the switch button 121 at the same time. In some embodiments, the lug boss 122 is arc-shaped.

Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 2 and FIG. 4, the holding portion 12 includes the handle 123 and the supporting bracket 124 that are arranged parallel to each other. The handle 123 and the supporting bracket 124 are located between the body 11 and the base 13. An output shaft of the suction generating unit 30 defines a first reference line L1 parallel to the first direction AA. The side of the handle 123 away from the supporting bracket 124 defines a second reference line L2 parallel to the second direction BB. A vertical line from a bottom end of the handle 123 on the side away from the supporting bracket 124 to the first reference line L1 defines a fourth reference line L4. A connection line from the bottom end of the handle 123 on the side away from the supporting bracket 124 to a center of gravity CG of the first motor of the suction generating unit 30 defines a third reference line L3.

When the dirt collection unit 20 are mounted and connected with the suction generating unit 30, and the filter assembly 22 is not mounted in the dirt collection unit 20, the first lock portion 361 will block between a step of a lock accommodating groove 25 of the dirt cup 21 of the dirt collection unit 20 and an end edge of the lock mounting seat 315 of the body shell 31, in this way, the locking protrusion block 314 on the body shell 31 can not be inserted into the bottom end of the vertical groove section of the locking groove 213 of the dirt cup 21 and not be rotated into the horizontal groove section of the locking groove 213, and the dirt collection unit 20 and the suction generating unit 30 may not be locked and mounted. When the filter assembly 22 is mounted in the dirt collection unit 20 and the dirt collection unit 20 and the suction generating unit 30 are close to each other, the anti-leaking-mounting protrusion block 2221 arranged on the side wall of the second filter assembly 222 of the dirt collection unit 20 will act on the second lock portion 362 to rotate the anti-leaking-mounting lock 36. The first lock portion 361 is away from the end edge of the lock mounting seat 315, so that the locking protrusion block 314 on the body shell 31 can be normally inserted into the bottom end of the vertical groove section of the locking groove 213 of the dirt cup 21 and be rotated and screwed into the horizontal groove section of the locking groove 213 to realize a locking of the dirt collection unit 20 and the suction generating unit 30. After the dirt collection unit 20 and the suction generating unit 30 are mounted, the anti-leaking-mounting protrusion block 2221 is located between the second lock portion 362 and the third lock portion 363, and the anti-leaking-mounting protrusion block 2221 abuts against the third lock portion 363, so the anti-leaking-mounting protrusion block 2221 gives a force away from the suction generating unit 30 to the dirt collection unit 20 to prevent the dirt collection unit 20 and the suction generating unit 30 from loosening.

In an embodiment, in order to improve a condition that an upright locking structure in the conventional art will generate wear and cause a structure to easily fail and very harsh friction noise, the brush assembly 60 is also provided with an upright locking structure. The upright locking structure adopts a principle of magnetic attraction, so that when the air tube connection portion 62 is in an upright position, the air tube connection portion 62 is locked by an action of a magnetic force.

Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 42 through FIG. 53, the upright locking structure includes a first magnetic component 6101 arranged on the brush housing 61 and a second magnetic component 622 arranged on the air tube connection portion 62, and a position of the second magnetic component 622 corresponds to a position of the first magnetic component 6101. For example, one of the first magnetic component 6101 and the second magnetic component 622 may be a magnetic component, and the other one thereof may be a magnetic component or a component that is easily attracted by the magnetic component. The magnetic component may be, for example, a magnet, and the component that is easily attracted by the magnetic component may be, for example, a metal piece. When the air tube connection portion 62 rotates around a first axis Z1 to an upright position, a magnetic force is generated between the first magnetic component 6101 and the second magnetic component 622 to lock the brush housing 61 and the air tube connection portion 62. When the air tube connection portion 62 rotates around the first axis Z1 to a use position, the second magnetic component 622 on the air tube connection portion 62 is away from the first magnetic component 6101 arranged on the brush housing 61 and the magnetic force is reduced, which does not affect a normal use of the brush assembly 60.

Please refer to FIG. 42 through FIG. 46. In an embodiment of the disclosure, the brush assembly 60 includes the brush housing 61, the agitator brush 65, the air tube connection portion 62 (which serves as an air tube connecting portion connected with an air tube), a second rotation connector 67, an upright locking structure and the traveling portion 64. The brush housing 61 has the accommodating cavity at the front end of the brush housing 61. The agitator brush 65 is rotatably mounted in the accommodating cavity and exposed from the bottom opening 66 at a bottom of the brush housing 61. The traveling portion 64 may be, for example, a traveling wheel, which is mounted on a bottom of a rear end of the brush housing 61. The rear end of the brush housing 61 is rotatably connected with the second rotation connector 67, and these two may rotate around a second axis Z2. One end of the air tube connection portion 62 is rotatably connected with an end of the second rotation connector 67 away from the brush housing 61. A rotation shaft between the air tube connection portion 62 and the second rotation connector 67 is defined as the first axis Z1, and the first axis Z1 is perpendicular to the second axis Z2. A switch between the upright position and the use position is realized by rotating the air tube connection portion 62 around the first axis Z1 in forward and backward directions. The second rotation connector 67 may rotate around the second axis Z2 in a left-right direction. In this embodiment, the first axis Z1 is parallel to a direction of a rotation axis of the traveling portion 64. The second axis Z2 is perpendicular to the first axis Z1, and the second axis Z2 is parallel to the ground.

Please refer to FIG. 42 through FIG. 46. In this embodiment, the upright locking structure includes the first magnetic component 6101 arranged on the brush housing 61 and a second magnetic component 622 arranged on the air tube connection portion 62, and the position of the second magnetic component 622 corresponds to the position of the first magnetic component 6101. The first magnetic component 6101 adopts a magnetic component, such as a magnet, etc. The second magnetic component 622 adopts a component that is easily attracted by the magnetic component, such as a metal piece. The first magnetic component 6101 is arranged on or above the first axis Z1. The first magnetic component 6101 is arranged on a top of the brush housing 61 near one end facing the air tube connection portion 62. When the air tube connection portion 62 rotates around the first axis Z1 to the upright position, a magnetic force is generated between the first magnetic component 6101 and the second magnetic component 622 to lock the brush housing 61 and the air tube connection portion 62. When the air tube connection portion 62 rotates around the first axis Z1 to a use position, the second magnetic component 622 on the air tube connection portion 62 is away from the first magnetic component 6101 arranged on the brush housing 61 and the magnetic force is reduced, which does not affect a normal use of the brush assembly 60.

It should be understood that, in one embodiment, both the first magnetic component 6101 and the second magnetic component 622 may adopt magnetic components such as magnets. In another embodiment, the first magnetic component may be a component that is easily attracted by the magnetic component, such as a metal piece, and the second magnetic component may be a magnetic component such as a magnet.

Please refer to FIG. 42 through FIG. 46. In this embodiment, a limiting rib 623 is arranged on a side of the air tube connection portion 62 facing the brush housing 61, and the second magnetic component 622 is arranged on the limiting rib 623. The brush housing 61 is provided with a first limiting groove 6102 corresponding to a position of the limiting rib 623. The first magnetic component 6101 is located on a side of the first limiting groove 6102 away from the limiting rib 623. The first magnetic component 6101 and the first limiting groove 6102 are spaced in intervals. The second rotation connector 67 is provided with a second limiting groove 671 communicating with the first limiting groove 6102.

During use, as shown in FIG. 44 through FIG. 46, when the air tube connection portion 62 is rotated to an upright state, the limiting rib 623 on the air tube connection portion 62 enters the second limiting groove 671 of the second rotation connector 67, and then the limiting rib 623 and the second limiting groove 671 are clamped into the first limiting groove 6102 on the brush housing 61 together to limit a left-right rotation of the air tube connection portion 62 and the second rotation connector 67. Secondly, when the second magnetic component 622 approaches the first magnetic component 6101 on an upper cover of the brush housing 61, a magnetic attraction force is generated to restrict a free rotation of the air tube connection portion 62 in the forward and backward directions, so as to lock the rotation connector 62. As shown in FIG. 42 and FIG. 43, when the air tube connection portion 62 rotates to the use position in an opposite direction around the first axis Z1, the limiting ribs 623 on the air tube connection portion 62 are sequentially removed out from the first limiting groove 6102 and the second limiting groove 671, thereby the second magnetic component 622 is kept away from the first magnetic component 6101 on the brush housing 61, which reduces the magnetic force and does not affect the normal use of the brush assembly 60.

Please refer to FIG. 47. In an embodiment of the disclosure, the handheld vacuum cleaner of the disclosure removes the second rotation connector 67, and the air tube connection portion 62 is directly fixed to a rear end of the brush housing 61 of the brush assembly 60 and may rotate around the first axis Z1 in the front-rear direction. The brush 60 assembly includes the brush housing 61, the agitator brush 65, the air tube connection portion 62 (which serves as an air tube connection portion connected with air tube), a second rotation connector 67, the upright locking structure and the traveling portion 64. The brush housing 61 is provided with an accommodating cavity at the front end of the brush housing 61. The agitator brush 65 is rotatably mounted in the accommodating cavity and exposed from a bottom opening 66 at the bottom of the brush housing 61. The traveling portion 64 may be, for example, a traveling wheel, which is mounted on the bottom of the rear end of the brush housing 61. The rear end of the brush housing 61 is rotatably connected with the air tube connection portion 62, and these two may rotate around the first axis Z1. The air tube connection portion 62 rotates in the forward and backward directions around the first axis Z1 to switch to the upright position or the use position. In this embodiment, the first axis Z1 is parallel to the direction of the rotation axis of the traveling portion 64.

Please refer to FIG. 47, in this embodiment, the upright locking structure includes the first magnetic component 6101 arranged on the brush housing 61 and the second magnetic component 622 arranged on the air tube connection portion 62, and the positions of the second magnetic component 622 and the first magnetic component 6101 correspond to each other. The first magnetic component 6101 is arranged on or above the first axis Z1. For example, one of the first magnetic component 6101 and the second magnetic component 622 may be a magnetic component, and the other one is a magnetic component or a component that is easily attracted by the magnetic component. The first magnetic component 6101 is arranged on the top of the brush housing 61 near one end facing the air tube connection portion 62. When the air tube connection portion 62 rotates around the first axis Z1 to an upright position, a magnetic force is generated between the first magnetic component 6101 and the second magnetic component 622 to lock the brush housing 61 and the air tube connection portion 62. When the air tube connection portion 62 rotates around the first axis Z1 to a use position, the second magnetic component 622 on the air tube connection portion 62 is away from the first magnetic component 6101 arranged on the brush housing 61 and the magnetic force is reduced, which does not affect a normal use of the brush assembly 60.

Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 42 through FIG. 46, in this embodiment, the limiting rib 623 is arranged on the side of the air tube connection portion 62 facing the brush housing 61, and the second magnetic component 622 is arranged on the limiting rib 623. The brush housing 61 is provided with the first limiting groove 6102 corresponding to the position of the limiting rib 623. The first magnetic component 6101 is located on the side of the first limiting groove 6102 away from the limiting rib 623. The first magnetic component 6101 and the first limiting groove 6102 are spaced in intervals.

During use, when the air tube connection portion 62 is rotated to the upright state, the limiting rib 623 on the air tube connection portion 62 is clamped into the first limiting groove 6102 on the brush housing 61. When the second magnetic component 622 approaches the first magnetic component 6101 on the upper cover of the brush housing 61, a magnetic attraction force is generated to restrict the free rotation of the rotation connector in the forward and backward directions, thereby achieving an effect of locking the rotation connector. When the air tube connection portion 62 rotates to the use position in the opposite direction of the first axis Z1, the limiting rib 623 on the air tube connection portion 62 is removed from the first limiting groove 6102, thereby the second magnetic component 622 is moved away from the first magnetic component 6101 on the brush housing 61, which weakens the magnetic force, and does not affect the normal use of the brush assembly 60.

Please refer to FIG. 48, in an embodiment of the disclosure, the second rotation connector 67 rotates around the first axis Z1 in the forward and backward direction, and the air tube connection portion 62 rotates around the second axis Z2 in the left-right direction. The brush assembly 60 includes the brush housing 61, the agitator brush 65, the air tube connection portion 62 (which serves as an air tube connecting portion connected with an air tube), the second rotation connector 67, the upright locking structure and the traveling portion 64. The brush housing 61 is provided with an accommodating cavity at the front end of the brush housing 61. The agitator brush 65 is rotatably mounted in the accommodating cavity and exposed from the bottom opening 66 at the bottom of the brush housing 61. The traveling portion 64 may be, for example, a traveling wheel, which is mounted on the bottom of the rear end of the brush housing 61. The second rotation connector 67 is rotatably connected with an end of the brush housing 61 close to the air tube connection portion 62. A rotation axis of the second rotation connector 67 and the brush housing 61 is defined as the first axis Z1, which means that the rotation axis of the second rotation connector 67 and the brush housing 61 and the first axis Z1 are collinear. The air tube connection portion 62 is rotatably connected with an end of the second rotation connector 67 away from the first axis Z1. The rotation axis between a rotation direction of the air tube connection portion 62 and the second rotation connector 67 is defined as the second axis Z2. The switch between the upright position and the use position is realized by a simultaneous rotation of the air tube connection portion 62 and the second rotation connector 67 around the first axis Z1 in the forward and backward directions. The air tube connection portion 62 may rotate around the second axis Z2 in the left-right direction. In this embodiment, the first axis Z1 is parallel to a direction of the rotation axis of the traveling portion 64, the second axis Z2 is perpendicular to the first axis Z1, and the second axis Z2 is substantially parallel to the ground when it is upright.

Please refer to FIG. 48, in this embodiment, the upright locking structure includes the first magnetic component 6101 arranged on the brush housing 61 and the second magnetic component 622 arranged on the air tube connection portion 62, and the positions of the second magnetic component 622 and the first magnetic component 6101 correspond to each other. The first magnetic component 6101 is arranged on or above the first axis Z1. For example, one of the first magnetic component 6101 and the second magnetic component 622 may be a magnetic component, and the other one is a magnetic component or a component that is easily attracted by the magnetic component. The first magnetic component 6101 is arranged on the top of the brush housing 61 near one end facing the air tube connection portion 62. When the air tube connection portion 62 rotates around the first axis Z1 to an upright position, a magnetic force is generated between the first magnetic component 6101 and the second magnetic component 622 to lock the brush housing 61 and the air tube connection portion 62. When the air tube connection portion 62 rotates around the first axis Z1 to a use position, the second magnetic component 622 on the air tube connection portion 62 is away from the first magnetic component 6101 arranged on the brush housing 61 and the magnetic force is reduced, which does not affect a normal use of the brush assembly 60.

Please refer to FIG. 48. In this embodiment, a limiting rib 623 is arranged on the side of the air tube connection portion 62 facing the brush housing 61, and the second magnetic component 622 is arranged on the limiting rib 623. The brush housing 61 is provided with the first limiting groove 6102 corresponding to the position of the limiting rib 623. The first magnetic component 6101 is located on the side of the first limiting groove 6102 away from the limiting rib 623. The first magnetic component 6101 and the first limiting groove 6102 are spaced in intervals.

During use, when the air tube connection portion 62 is rotated to the upright state driven by the rotation connector 67, the limiting rib 623 on the air tube connection portion 62 is clamped into the first limiting groove 6102 on the brush housing 61. When the second magnetic component 622 approaches the first magnetic component 6101 on the upper cover of the brush housing 61, a magnetic attraction force is generated to restrict the free rotation of the rotation connector in the forward and backward directions, thereby achieving the effect of locking the rotation connector. When the air tube connection portion 62 is driven by the second rotation connector 67 to rotate in the opposite direction around the first axis Z1 to the use position, the limiting rib 623 on the air tube connection portion 62 is removed from the first limiting groove 6102, so that the second magnetic component 622 is kept away from the first magnetic component 6101 on the brush housing 61, which weakens the magnetic force and does not affect the normal use of the brush assembly 60.

Please refer to FIG. 49 through FIG. 53, in an embodiment of the disclosure, the fixing manner of the first magnetic component 6101 on the brush housing 61 is changed to be movable within a certain range, and the first magnetic component 6101 is introduced into a power supply circuit of a second motor 68 to control on and off of the second motor 68. Other structures are basically the same as mentioned above, so details will not be repeated.

Please refer to FIG. 49 through FIG. 53, compared with the above embodiments, the brush assembly 60 further includes an elastic component 6103 and a sliding channel 6104. The first magnetic component 6101 is fixed in the sliding channel 6104 of the brush housing 61 through the elastic component 6103. When the air tube connection portion 62 rotates to the upright position around the first axis Z1 (the first axis Z1 is parallel to the direction of the rotation axis of the traveling portion 64), a magnetic force is generated between the first magnetic component 6101 and the second magnetic component 622. The first magnetic component 6101 moves along the sliding channel 6104 toward the second magnetic component 622 to lock the brush housing 61 and the air tube connection portion 62.

Please refer to FIG. 49 through FIG. 53, the first magnetic component 6101 may be fixedly connected with a conductive first connecting component 615 as a switch contact of the power supply circuit of the second motor 68. A conductive second connecting component 616 is fixed on one side of the first connecting component 615, and the second connecting component 616 is also connected with the power supply circuit of the second motor 68. When the air tube connection portion 62 rotates around the first axis Z1 to the working position, the first magnetic component 6101 returns to an initial position under an action of the elastic component 6103, and the first connecting component 615 and the second connecting component 616 are in contact, so that the power supply circuit of the second motor 68 is turned on, and the second motor 68 may work normally. While when the air tube connection portion 62 rotates around the first axis Z1 to the upright position, a magnetic force is generated between the first magnetic component 6101 and the second magnetic component 622, the first magnetic component 6101 moves toward the second magnetic component 622 along the sliding channel 6104, and the first connecting component 615 and the second connecting component 616 are separated, the power supply circuit of the second motor 68 is cut off, and the second motor 68 stops working, which may prevent the agitator brush 65 from abrading carpet or floor, and reduce a load state of the second motor 68.

It should be understood that the upright locking structure of this embodiment may also be applied to the structure of the brush assembly 60 of the above embodiments to realize a on and off of the power supply circuit of the second motor 68.

In summary, the upright locking structure of the brush assembly of the disclosure adopts the principle of magnetic attraction, so that when the air tube connection portion of the brush assembly is in the upright position, a magnetic force is generated to lock the air tube connection portion. The upright locking structure of the brush assembly of the disclosure has a simple structure, and there is no friction between the brush housing and the first magnetic component, so that a problem of structural failure and noise generation due to friction will not occur. The brush assembly connects the upright locking structure with the power supply circuit of the second motor, and changes a fixing method of the first magnetic component of the upright locking structure to be movable within a certain range, so that when the air tube connection portion is in an upright state, the second motor may stop running to prevent agitator brushes from abrading carpet or floor and reduce load of the second motor.

Please refer to FIG. 54 through FIG. 65, the disclosure further provides a vacuum cleaner brush assembly. The vacuum cleaner brush assembly includes a brush housing 71, a first supporting component 72, a second supporting component 73 and an agitator brush 74. A cylindrical mounting cavity 7111 is defined inside the brush housing 71. The first supporting component 72 is detachably connected with the brush housing 71 and defines a first end (not shown in the figure). The first end is located at one end of the mounting cavity 7111. The second supporting component 73 is fixedly connected with the brush housing 71 and defines a second end (not shown in the figure). The second end is located at the other end of the mounting cavity 7111.
