Abstract

The disclosure discloses a swimming pool cleaning robot with a waterline cleaning function, including: an apparatus main body ( 1 ), serving as a structural foundation of a water surface cleaning robot, wherein a control mainboard, a power supply, and a driving system are built in the apparatus main body ( 1 ); a debris collection device, installed at a bottom position of the apparatus main body ( 1 ) for collecting and storing water surface debris; and a waterline cleaning device, installed at a side of the apparatus main body ( 1 ) for performing waterline cleaning on an inner wall surface of a swimming pool. This disclosure achieves efficient cleaning of waterline stains along the edges of pools and adjacent walls by integrating a specialized waterline roller brush and a propelling device.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A swimming pool cleaning robot with a waterline cleaning function, comprising:
 an apparatus main body, serving as a structural foundation of a water surface cleaning robot, wherein a control mainboard, a power supply, and a driving system are built in the apparatus main body;   a debris collection device, installed at a bottom position of the apparatus main body for collecting and storing water surface debris;   a waterline cleaning device, installed at a side of the apparatus main body for performing waterline cleaning on an inner wall surface of a swimming pool;   a positioning device, used for positioning the apparatus main body during waterline cleaning, enabling the waterline cleaning device to contact the inner wall surface of the swimming pool to complete waterline cleaning; and   the control mainboard, the debris collection device, the waterline cleaning device, and the positioning device are powered by the power supply, and the debris collection device, the waterline cleaning device, and the positioning device are controlled by the control mainboard.   
     
     
         2 . The swimming pool cleaning robot with a waterline cleaning function according to  claim 1 , wherein the waterline cleaning device comprises a waterline roller brush and a waterline propeller, the waterline roller brush is arranged at the side of the apparatus main body, the waterline roller brush is used for making contact with a wall to clean the waterline; and
 the waterline propeller is installed on the other side of the apparatus main body and is used for applying a propelling force during waterline cleaning, enabling the waterline roller brush to press tightly against the wall, the propelling force serves as the back propelling force for the waterline roller brush and waterline propeller is controlled by the control mainboard.   
     
     
         3 . The swimming pool cleaning robot with a waterline cleaning function according to  claim 1 , wherein the debris collection device comprises a main roller brush and a debris collection box, the debris collection box is installed at the bottom of the apparatus main body, with one side open to form a debris inlet, the main roller brush is installed on one side of the debris inlet, the main roller brush is controlled to rotate by a driving system, debris on the water surface is collected into the debris collection box by the main roller brush, and the debris collection box is provided with small holes for water inflow and outflow. 
     
     
         4 . The swimming pool cleaning robot with a waterline cleaning function according to  claim 1 , further comprising a thrust system, wherein the thrust system comprises a plurality of self-powered main motion propellers installed on a tail end of the apparatus main body, the thrust system is controlled by the control mainboard and powered by the power supply, and the apparatus main body is propelled forward by the thrust system. 
     
     
         5 . The swimming pool cleaning robot with a waterline cleaning function according to  claim 1 , wherein the positioning device adopts an ultrasonic positioning device. 
     
     
         6 . The swimming pool cleaning robot with a waterline cleaning function according to  claim 5 , wherein the ultrasonic positioning device comprises a side ultrasonic positioning module and a front ultrasonic positioning module, which transmit ultrasonic detection signals to the control mainboard and make an instruction. 
     
     
         7 . The swimming pool cleaning robot with a waterline cleaning function according to  claim 1 , wherein a top of the apparatus main body is provided with an energy source charging device, and the power supply is charged by the energy source charging device. 
     
     
         8 . The swimming pool cleaning robot with a waterline cleaning function according to  claim 1 , wherein a plurality of guide rollers are provided on sides of the apparatus main body.
