Questions about Vacuum Cleaner Moisture Detection Technology: 1. How does the moisture detection circuit work in the vacuum cleaner? 2. What are the potential implications of moisture damage in traditional vacuum cleaners?
1. What are the potential implications of moisture damage in traditional vacuum cleaners?
- Moisture damage in traditional vacuum cleaners can lead to electrical hazards, motor malfunction, and overall reduced lifespan of the equipment. By implementing a moisture detection circuit that can stop the suction motor when moisture is detected, this technology aims to prevent such issues and enhance the safety and longevity of the vacuum cleaner.
Original Abstract Submitted
a vacuum cleaner includes a battery module configured to supply power to a cleaner body, a motor assembly including a printed circuit board (pcb), a suction motor, and an impeller arranged in this order along a direction of a flow path in the cleaner body, a moisture detection circuit provided on the pcb of the motor assembly and configured to detect moisture introduced through the flow path, and at least one processor configured to, when it is determined, through the moisture detection circuit, that moisture has been introduced into the cleaner body, stop driving of the suction motor.
