Publication number: 20250281857Abstract: A filter device and an underwater cleaning device are provided. The filter device includes a filter body and a filter accessory arranged outside the filter body, where the filter body and the filter accessory are sequentially arranged in a water outflow direction of a water path, to sequentially filter polluted water. The filter accessory partitions the interior of a housing of the underwater cleaning device into at least two spaces; and the filter accessory is arranged externally on at least one side of the filter body. The arrangement of the filter body and the filter accessory can enable secondary filtration of the polluted water. Therefore, the filter device is simple in structure and is easy to mount and dismount.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 21, 2025Publication date: September 11, 2025Applicant: WYBOTICS CO., LTD.Inventors: Pu CEN, Yiliang WANG

Publication number: 20250154786Abstract: A mechanical direction change structure for a pool cleaner includes a direction change device provided on a pool cleaner body and swingable relative to a pool cleaner, where the direction change device is provided with an abutting unit, and at least one stopping unit rotatable relative to the direction change device; when the pool cleaner is traveling, the stopping unit is in contact with the abutting unit, such that the direction change device maintains a basically stationary state relative to a shell; and when the pool cleaner changes a direction, the stopping unit gradually detaches from the abutting unit and rotates relative to the abutting unit. The stopping unit is rotatable relative to a swinging element. The stopping unit rotates to contact or detach from the abutting unit, thereby enabling the pool cleaner to travel and change its direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 14, 2023Publication date: May 15, 2025Applicant: WYBOTICS CO., LTDInventors: Pu CEN, Huchen GONG

Patent number: 12270223Abstract: An underwater debris suction apparatus includes a power device and a filter device. The power device includes a suction component and a power drive device configured to provide power for the suction component. The underwater debris suction apparatus further includes a collection device, and the upper end of the collection device is provided with an opening. The suction component is at least partially located above the filter device or is entirely located in the space of the filter device. During operation of the suction component, unfiltered pool water enters the filter device through a water inlet channel and flows to the side wall of the filter device, so that the filtered water is discharged from the side wall of the filter device, and the debris that cannot be discharged from the side wall of the filter device falls into the collection device.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2020Date of Patent: April 8, 2025Assignee: WYBOTICS Co., LTD.Inventors: Qian Yu, Pu Cen, Cuixiao Geng, Liangliang Xu

Patent number: 12099367Abstract: An obstacle touching detecting device for a swimming pool cleaner includes a main functional portion of the cleaner and a sensor obstacle touching detecting device. The main functional portion of the cleaner includes a cleaner main body, a controller module, and a power-driven actuating device. The controller module and the power-driven actuating device are connected to the cleaner main body. The sensor obstacle touching detecting device includes a trigger unit connected to the cleaner main body and a sensor detecting module electrically connected to the controller module. The controller module is electrically connected to the power-driven actuating device. The trigger unit works collaboratively with the sensor detecting module to trigger the sensor detecting module to generate a detection signal. An automatic detection is performed when the cleaner touches the wall or other obstacles, and the cleaner is controlled to change direction automatically.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2020Date of Patent: September 24, 2024Assignee: WYBOTICS Co., LTD.Inventors: Qian Yu, Pu Cen, Jiancheng Huang, Yueming Wang, Shouqiang Guan, Zilong Zhang

Patent number: 11761225Abstract: A mechanism for detecting obstacles and mechanically reversing (a direction of) a pool cleaner includes a drive part in non-rotatable connection with a cleaner housing, an arresting assembly connected to the cleaner housing, and a rotary direction-changing assembly rotatably connected to the cleaner housing or the drive part. The arresting assembly cooperates with the rotary direction-changing assembly. The mechanism for detecting obstacles and mechanically reversing (a direction of) a pool cleaner is compact in structure, low in manufacturing cost, and can perform obstacle detection and change a direction of the pool cleaner. With the structure of the rotary direction-changing assembly capable of rotating relative to the cleaner housing, the cleaner, when meeting an obstacle, is allowed to change the traveling direction, thereby resulting in a high working efficiency.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2020Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: WYBOTICS CO., LTD.Inventors: Qian Yu, Pu Cen, Jiancheng Huang, Liangliang Xu
