A cleaning apparatus, comprising: an apparatus main body (100); a driving
assembly (200), which is connected to the apparatus main body (100) and is configured to drive the apparatus main body (100) to travel on a surface to be cleaned; a drum (410), which is configured to clean the surface to be cleaned; a
wastewater collection
assembly (500), which abuts against the drum (410) and is configured to scrape
wastewater off the drum (410) and collect same; a
wastewater tank (600), which is internally provided with an accommodating space for accommodating wastewater, and a wastewater inlet (611) and a wastewater outlet (618), which are in communication with the accommodating space; a wastewater suction
assembly, which is connected to the wastewater tank (600) and is configured to generate a negative pressure in the wastewater tank (600), so as to suction the wastewater, which is collected by the wastewater collection assembly (500), into the accommodating space by means of the wastewater inlet (611); and a wastewater
discharge assembly, which is connected to the wastewater tank (600) and is configured to generate a
positive pressure in the wastewater tank (600), so as to
discharge the wastewater in the accommodating space out of the wastewater tank (600) by means of the wastewater outlet (618). By means of the cleaning apparatus, a user is not required to manually clear wastewater.
