Abstract
A dust collecting device and an electric vacuum cleaner with it are provided. The dust collecting device comprises a main body with an opening, a first dust collector with a first dust collecting brush for collecting dust, and a second dust collector with a second dust collecting brush for collecting dust; the first dust collector and the second dust collector are rotatably held in parallel inside the main body; when the first dust collecting brush is at the opening, the first dust collecting brush is inclined toward the second dust collector; when the second dust collecting brush is at the opening, the second dust collecting brush is inclined toward the first dust collector.
Claims6
A dust collecting device, wherein, the dust collecting device comprises a main body with an opening, a first dust collector with a first dust collecting brush for collecting dust, and a second dust collector with a second dust collecting brush for collecting dust;
- the first dust collector and the second dust collector are rotatably held in parallel inside the main body;
- the opening is arranged at outer peripheral surface of the main body;
- the first dust collecting brush is arranged at outer peripheral surface of the first dust collector;
- the second dust collecting brush is arranged at outer peripheral surface of the second dust collector;
- one part of the first dust collector is arranged at the opening so as to exposed from the main body;
- one part of the second dust collector is arranged at the opening so as to exposed from the main body;
- the first dust collecting brush and the second dust collecting brush are alternately moved in and out from the opening;
- when the first dust collecting brush is at the opening, the first dust collecting brush is inclined toward the second dust collector;
- when the second dust collecting brush is at the opening, the second dust collecting brush is inclined toward the first dust collector;
- the cylindrical first dust collector and the second dust collector move in contact with each other on a surface to be cleaned, and the first dust collector and the second dust collector pivot in the same direction due to a frictional force with the surface to be cleaned;
- the first dust collector further comprises a first pivoting shaft with a first gear provided at the end;
- the second dust collector further comprises a second pivoting shaft with a second gear provided at the end;
- the first gear and the second gear are connected by a third gear;
- a brush tip of the first dust collecting brush and a brush tip of the second dust collecting brush are configured so that a part of the brush tip of the first dust collecting brush and a part of the brush tip of the second dust collecting brush come into contact with each other.
