[0025] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 6As shown, when cleaning equipment such as sweepers is working, the mop is mounted on a rigid frame. By applying downward pressure to the rigid frame, the mop can clean the floor with a certain downward pressure during the cleaning process. Because the frame is a rigid component, the contact surface between the frame and the mop remains unchanged when the mop is mounted on the frame to clean the floor, which results in the mop not being able to make good contact with uneven surfaces.

[0027] In view of the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a cleaning component 100, which aims to enable the moisture-absorbing cleaning component to fully fit the uneven surface to be cleaned, improve the cleaning ability of the surface to be cleaned, and ensure the actual cleaning effect.

[0028] Combination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the present invention provides a cleaning component 100, including a housing 1, a first flexible membrane 2, and a moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3. The housing 1 includes an open receiving portion 11. The first flexible membrane 2 has a first surface and a second surface facing each other. The first flexible membrane 2 covers the receiving portion 11 and faces the opening of the receiving portion 11 with the first surface facing the opening of the receiving portion 11. The moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 is deformably disposed on the side where the second surface of the first flexible membrane 2 is located. The moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 is used to clean the surface to be cleaned. The first flexible membrane 2 deforms with the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 when the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 deforms.

[0029] According to the cleaning component 100 of this utility model embodiment, when the cleaning component 100 is used to assist in cleaning the surface to be cleaned, the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 will flexibly deform according to the unevenness of the surface to be cleaned. At this time, since the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 is provided on the side of the second surface of the first flexible film 2 away from the box 1, and the first flexible film 2 can deform with the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3, the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 can be fully attached to the surface to be cleaned. Compared with related technologies, the first flexible film 2 in this utility model can deform with the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3, so that the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 can be fully attached to the surface to be cleaned, thereby improving the actual cleaning effect of the surface to be cleaned.

[0030] Specifically, the housing 1 is a rigid component, such as a rigid frame, to ensure the main structure of the cleaning assembly 100. The housing 1 can be a hollow structure with openings on its walls to form an accommodating portion 11. The first surface of the first flexible membrane 2 is closer to the housing than the second surface of the first flexible membrane 2. A moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 is disposed on the side of the second surface of the first flexible membrane 2 away from the housing 1. The second surface of the first flexible membrane 2 can be directly connected to the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3, or the second surface of the second flexible membrane 2 can be connected to the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 by means of an intermediate flexible member, so that the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 can deform with the uneven surface to be cleaned, thereby ensuring good contact between the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 and the surface to be cleaned and improving the cleaning ability of the surface to be cleaned.

[0031] Taking the figure as an example, the bottom of the box 1 can be completely open or partially open. In this case, the first flexible membrane 2 and the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 are located at the bottom of the box 1 in sequence.

[0032] It should be noted that the "moisture-absorbing cleaning component" is not limited to a mop, but can also be a sponge brush, a water-absorbing resin brush, a silicone brush, etc. The "surface to be cleaned" is not limited to the ground, but can also be the surface of carpets such as blankets and mats, walls, etc. In other words, the cleaning component 100 of this utility model is not limited to the cleaning of the ground, but can also be used for the cleaning of carpets such as blankets and mats, walls, etc.

[0033] Combination Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the receiving portion 11 contains a medium, and the first flexible membrane 2 or the housing 1 has an outlet (not shown) to guide the medium to the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3.

[0034] Furthermore, the medium is a liquid medium and / or a gaseous medium; in other words, the medium can be a liquid medium, a gaseous medium, or simultaneously contain both liquid and gaseous media.

[0035] Specifically, the liquid medium is either a solution formed by mixing water and detergent or water. That is, the liquid medium is not limited to a cleaning solution formed by mixing detergent and water, or it can be water directly. The gaseous medium can be air. When both liquid and gaseous media are included, the gaseous medium is located above the liquid medium. In other words, the liquid medium does not completely fill the entire container 11, but occupies part of the space, and the remaining space is air. That is to say, the liquid level of the liquid medium in the container 11 is not limited.

[0036] The outlet can extend along the thickness direction of the first flexible membrane 2, and the thickness direction of the first flexible membrane 2 can be the height direction of the cleaning component 100. The height direction of the cleaning component 100 is also the up-down direction in the figure. At this time, the first flexible membrane 2 is installed at the bottom of the box 1, and the outlet passes through the first flexible membrane 2 in the up-down direction and communicates with the receiving part 11, so as to facilitate the production and processing of the cleaning component 100 and save costs.

[0037] For example, the area where the first flexible membrane 2 is connected to the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 is provided with a water outlet that connects to the receiving portion 11. The water outlet extends from the top of the first flexible membrane 2 toward the bottom and extends to the bottom of the first flexible membrane 2 so that the medium can flow onto the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3. That is, the first flexible membrane 2 is provided with a water outlet that penetrates its top and bottom walls so that the medium in the receiving portion 11 can flow out from the water outlet, so that when the medium is a liquid medium, the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 can be automatically wetted, simplifying the water outlet and wetting method.

[0038] It should be noted that, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the cleaning operation, the diameter of the water outlet should not be too large. The diameter of the water outlet can be determined comprehensively based on the specifications of the actual cleaning component 100, the water flow rate requirements, etc., to meet the actual use needs. This will not be elaborated on here.

[0039] Alternatively, the housing 1 may be equipped with a water outlet (not shown in the figure) connecting to the receiving section 11. When the medium is liquid, the water outlet can be connected to the water inlet of the pump body, and the water outlet of the pump body can be connected to the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3. This allows the water outlet to pump the liquid medium onto the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 through the pump body, so that the liquid medium can wet the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3. This achieves controllability of the wetting requirements of the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 and improves the wetting efficiency. In addition, a specific water outlet structure can be designed between the water outlet of the pump body and the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 to ensure the wetting effect of the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3.

[0040] Understandably, because the flexible membrane structure is lightweight and easily deformable, when the first flexible membrane 2 and the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 are located sequentially at the bottom of the housing 1, and the medium is liquid, the first flexible membrane 2 can automatically and smoothly deform based on the gravity of the liquid medium. This allows the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 to match well with the uneven parts of the surface to be cleaned, without the need for additional power, resulting in low cost and high practicality. Simultaneously, the gravity of the liquid medium within the housing 11 acts on the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 through the first flexible membrane 2, ensuring uniform downward pressure from the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 on all parts of the surface to be cleaned, thus guaranteeing the cleaning ability.

[0041] In some embodiments, the first flexible membrane 2 has multiple water outlets arranged in an array.

[0042] For example, multiple water outlets are arrayed on the first flexible membrane 2, and the multiple water outlets are arranged in the area of ​​the first flexible membrane 2 corresponding to the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3.

[0043] Understandably, when the medium is liquid, the use of an array of multiple outlets can accelerate the wetting rate of the liquid medium on the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3, thereby ensuring cleaning efficiency. At the same time, it can also ensure uniform wetting of the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3, so that the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 is cleaned in a basically the same state on all parts of the surface to be cleaned, thus improving the cleaning effect.

[0044] Combination Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, at least one of the housing 1 and the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 is detachably connected to the first flexible membrane 2, so that if either of the connected components fails, only the corresponding damaged component needs to be replaced to ensure the normal operation of the cleaning component 100, without having to scrap the entire cleaning component 100, thus effectively reducing the maintenance cost of the cleaning component 100.

[0045] It is understood that the housing 1 is detachably connected to the first flexible membrane 2; or the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 is detachably connected to the first flexible membrane 2; or both the housing 1 and the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 are detachably connected to the first flexible membrane 2.

[0046] Furthermore, the first flexible membrane 2 is connected to the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 by means of adhesive or snap-fit, so that the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 can be easily installed and removed from the first flexible membrane 2.

[0047] For example, the first flexible membrane 2 can be attached to the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 using Velcro. Alternatively, a groove can be formed on the first flexible membrane 2, and a protrusion can be formed on the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3. The protrusion can fit into the groove to achieve the snap-fit ​​fixation of the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 on the first flexible membrane 2.

[0048] Of course, the specific connection method between the first flexible membrane 2 and the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 is not limited to the two methods mentioned above. The moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 can also be installed and fixed on the first flexible membrane 2 by means of a strap (or cable tie). In other words, the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 can be provided with a strap, which can be used to bind the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 to the first flexible membrane 2 to achieve the installation and fixation of the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 on the first flexible membrane 2; or, the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 can be provided with a cable tie, which can be used to fit the first flexible membrane 2 to achieve the installation and fixation of the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 on the first flexible membrane 2.

[0049] Combination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, based on the specific structural design of the first flexible membrane 2, in some embodiments, the receiving portion 11 further includes another opening, which is covered by a second flexible membrane 4. When the second flexible membrane 4 deforms relative to the receiving portion 11, the medium inside the receiving portion 11 causes the first flexible membrane 2 to deform, and the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 deforms along with the first flexible membrane 2.

[0050] Specifically, the box 1 can be a hollow structure with two openings on its wall. One opening is covered by a first flexible membrane 2, and the other opening is covered by a second flexible membrane 4. The opening covered by the first flexible membrane 2 can be located at the bottom of the box 1, while the opening covered by the second flexible membrane 4 can be located at the top of the box 1. In other words, the receiving part 11 has an opening structure at both ends (bottom and top). The top of the box 1 can also be completely open or partially open to form an opening at the top of the box 1. At this time, the second flexible membrane 4 is located at the top of the box 1. The second flexible membrane 4, the box 1, the first flexible membrane 2, and the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 can be arranged and connected sequentially from top to bottom.

[0051] It is understandable that because the flexible membrane structure is lightweight and easily deformable, when external pressure is applied to the second flexible membrane 4, the second flexible membrane 4 can deform relative to the receiving part 11. When the medium in the receiving part 11 is a liquid medium, the second flexible membrane 4 directly excites the liquid medium in the receiving part 11 to drive the first flexible membrane 2 to move relative to the surface to be cleaned, causing the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 to vibrate, thereby improving the cleaning ability of the surface to be cleaned.

[0052] Alternatively, when the medium in the receiving part 11 is a gaseous medium, the second flexible membrane 4 compresses the gaseous medium in the receiving part 11 and changes the volume of the gaseous medium to drive the first flexible membrane 2 to move relative to the surface to be cleaned, so that the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 vibrates, thereby improving the cleaning ability of the surface to be cleaned.

[0053] Alternatively, when the medium in the receiving part 11 contains both liquid and gaseous media (such as air), the second flexible membrane 4 compresses the air above the liquid medium in the receiving part 11, so that the compressed air transmits pressure to the liquid medium in the receiving part 11, thereby causing the moisture-absorbing cleaning member 3 to vibrate, thereby improving the cleaning ability of the surface to be cleaned.

[0054] The external pressure can cause the second flexible membrane 4 to move along the height direction of the cleaning component 100 (i.e., the up-down direction in the figure); or, the external pressure can cause the second flexible membrane 4 to move along the left-right direction of the cleaning component 100; or, the external pressure can cause the second flexible membrane 4 to move along the height direction of the cleaning component 100 plus the left-right direction of the cleaning component 100.

[0055] It should be noted that the specific structure of the second flexible membrane 4 can be determined comprehensively based on the specifications and shape of the cleaning component 100, so as to ensure that it can produce a good excitation effect on the medium in the accommodating part 11. It will not be elaborated on here.

[0056] Furthermore, the first flexible film 2 is a polypropylene film, a polyethylene film, or a polyester film, and the second flexible film 4 is a polypropylene film, a polyethylene film, or a polyester film. Specifically, the polypropylene film is PP (Polypropylene) film, the polyethylene film is PE (Polyethylene Film), and the polyester film is PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate Film).

[0057] It is understood that in some embodiments of the present invention, the first flexible film 2 and the second flexible film 4 can both be polypropylene films; in other embodiments, the first flexible film 2 and the second flexible film 4 can both be polyethylene films; in still other embodiments, the first flexible film 2 and the second flexible film 4 can both be polyester films; in yet another embodiment, the first flexible film 2 is a polypropylene film and the second flexible film 4 is a polyethylene film. Therefore, the specific material selection combination of the first flexible film 2 and the second flexible film 4 of the present invention can be the aforementioned four combinations.

[0058] Furthermore, the first flexible membrane 2 is connected to the housing 1 by in-mold injection molding, dispensing, or ultrasonic welding, and the second flexible membrane 4 is connected to the housing 1 by in-mold injection molding, dispensing, or ultrasonic welding, so as to ensure that the cleaning component 100 has good sealing performance when the first flexible membrane 2 and the second flexible membrane 4 are installed on the housing 1, and can prevent water leakage at the connection gap.

[0059] It is understood that in some embodiments of this invention, the first flexible membrane 2 and the second flexible membrane 4 are both connected to the housing 1 by in-mold injection molding; in other embodiments, the first flexible membrane 2 and the second flexible membrane 4 are both connected to the housing 1 by dispensing; in still other embodiments, the first flexible membrane 2 and the second flexible membrane 4 are both connected to the housing 1 by ultrasonic welding; in yet another embodiment, the first flexible membrane 2 is connected to the housing 1 by in-mold injection molding, while the second flexible membrane 4 is connected to the housing 1 by dispensing. Therefore, the specific connection methods of the first flexible membrane 2 and the second flexible membrane 4 to the housing 1 of this invention can be combinations of the aforementioned four methods.

[0060] In addition, when the first flexible membrane 2 and the second flexible membrane 4 are connected to the box 1 by dispensing or ultrasonic welding, the reliability of the connection between the first flexible membrane 2 and the second flexible membrane 4 and the box 1 can be guaranteed, and it is also convenient to disassemble and assemble the first flexible membrane 2 and the second flexible membrane 4 and the box 1 during later maintenance.

[0061] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the housing 1 is provided with a water inlet 12 that connects to the receiving portion 11, so that the receiving portion 11 is replenished with liquid medium through the water inlet 12, so as to realize timely replenishment of the cleaning component 100 and ensure the smooth progress of the cleaning operation.

[0062] Combination Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the cleaning assembly 100 further includes a water level monitoring assembly (not shown), which is installed in the receiving portion 11 and used to monitor the water level within the receiving portion 11. For example, the water level monitoring assembly may include a float and a Hall sensor. Similarly, other specific structures capable of monitoring the water level within the receiving portion 11 can also be applied to this invention, and are not specifically limited here.

[0063] It is understandable that, because the flexible membrane has a certain limit to its flexibility, if the water level is too low, the second flexible membrane 4 may not be able to reach the liquid medium in the container 11 under external pressure. Therefore, in order to ensure that the external pressure can stimulate the liquid medium, the water level in the container 11 must meet the design requirements. The water level monitoring component can monitor the water level in the container 11 in real time. When the water level is lower than the design requirements, the water level monitoring component will provide timely feedback to replenish the liquid in the container 11. Similarly, if the water level is too high, the pressure exerted by the gravity of the liquid medium in the container 11 on the first flexible membrane 2 will be too great, which may reduce the service life of the first flexible membrane 2 or even cause the first flexible membrane 2 to break. Therefore, the water level in the container 11 must meet the design requirements to ensure the normal operation of the cleaning component 100.

[0064] Combination Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the present invention provides a cleaning device 10, which includes a cleaning component 100 and a body 200. The cleaning component 100 is the cleaning component 100 of any of the above embodiments. The cleaning component 100 is connected to the body 200, and the body 200 can drive the cleaning component 100 to move on the surface to be cleaned in order to perform cleaning operations on the surface to be cleaned.

[0065] According to the cleaning device 10 of this utility model embodiment, the contact surface (or the component connected to the moisture-absorbing cleaning element 3, i.e., the first flexible membrane 2) of the cleaning component 100 for installing the moisture-absorbing cleaning element 3 is designed to deform with the moisture-absorbing cleaning element 3 so that the moisture-absorbing cleaning element 3 can make good contact with the surface to be cleaned during the cleaning operation, ensuring the cleaning ability of the recessed position of the surface to be cleaned. At the same time, the machine body 200 can move with the cleaning component 100 to achieve cleaning treatment of the entire surface to be cleaned. Therefore, compared with related technologies, the cleaning device using this cleaning component 100 has good cleaning ability.

[0066] It should be noted that the cleaning equipment in this utility model embodiment is preferably, but not limited to, a sweeping robot and a sweeping and mopping robot.

[0067] Combination Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, the cleaning device 10 further includes a drive arm 5, which is connected to the body 200 via a transmission. The drive arm 5 is also connected to the second flexible membrane 4, so that the drive arm 5 can drive the second flexible membrane 4 to move relative to the receiving portion 11, thereby stimulating the medium inside the receiving portion 11.

[0068] Specifically, the drive arm 5 is not limited to a plate or a column. The specific structure of the drive arm 5 can be designed according to actual needs. The figure shown is only an example (in the figure, the drive arm 5 is located on top of the second flexible membrane 4, and the drive arm 5, the second flexible membrane 4, the box 1, the first flexible membrane 2 and the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 can be arranged and connected from top to bottom).

[0069] For example, the body 200 may be equipped with a drive device, which may be a telescopic cylinder (one of a hydraulic cylinder, electric cylinder, pneumatic cylinder, and oil cylinder). The cylinder body of the telescopic cylinder is connected to the body 200, and the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder is connected to the drive arm 5. The telescopic cylinder pushes and pulls the drive arm 5 to pull the second flexible membrane 4 to move, thereby causing the second flexible membrane 4 to deform relative to the receiving portion 11. This excites the medium in the receiving portion 11 to drive the first flexible membrane 2 to move towards the surface to be cleaned, causing the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 to vibrate, thereby improving the cleaning ability of the surface to be cleaned. Of course, the drive device may also be other drive components that can drive the drive arm 5 to move along the height direction, left and right direction, or height direction + left and right direction of the cleaning component 100, which is not specifically limited here.

[0070] Combination Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the cleaning component 100 is detachably connected to the body 200 so that if one of them fails, only the damaged part needs to be replaced to restore the normal operation of the cleaning equipment, without having to scrap the entire cleaning equipment, thus effectively reducing the maintenance cost of the cleaning equipment 10.

[0071] Combination Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the cleaning device 10 further includes a telescopic component 6, which is connected to the body 200 and is connected to the cleaning component 100 via a transmission connection, so that the telescopic component 6 drives the cleaning component 100 to move relative to the body 200, so that the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 fits well with the surface to be cleaned, ensuring the cleaning effect.

[0072] For example, when the cleaning component 100 is located below the body 200, and the surface to be cleaned is located below the cleaning component 100, the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 is located below the body 200. At this time, the telescopic component 6 can push and pull the cleaning component 100 relative to the body 200 along the height direction of the body 200, so that the cleaning component 100 together with the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 can rise and fall on the body 200. The height direction of the body 200 is consistent with the height direction of the cleaning component 100, that is, the up and down direction in the figure.

[0073] Combination Figures 4 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the telescopic component 6 includes a cable 61 and a first actuator 62. Both the first and second ends of the cable 61 are connected to the body 200. The cable 61 has a winding position and a release position. The first actuator 62 is mounted on the cleaning component 100 and is drivenly connected to the cable 61. The first actuator 62 is capable of winding and unwinding the cable 61 to switch the cable 61 between the winding and release positions, causing the cleaning component 100 to retract or extend relative to the body 200. The distance between each of the first and second ends of the cable 61 and the first actuator 62 in the winding position is smaller than the distance between them in the release position.

[0074] Understandably, the first driver 62 can wind or release the cable 61 on the body 200 to change the length between the first and second ends of the cable 61. When the cable 61 is in the wound position, the cleaning component 100 retracts relative to the body 200, and the length between the first and second ends of the cable 61 becomes smaller. When the cable 61 is in the released position, the cleaning component 100 is extended relative to the body 200, and the length between the first and second ends of the cable 61 becomes larger. Therefore, with the cooperation of the first driver 62 and the cable 61, the cleaning component 100 can be actively raised and lowered on the body 200.

[0075] Specifically, the cable 61 can be, for example, a steel wire rope, with both ends of the steel wire rope (i.e., the first end and the second end of the cable 61) fixed to the housing of the body 200. The first driver 62 can be a drive motor, which is mounted on the housing 1. The output end of the drive motor is connected to the middle position of the cable 61 (i.e., the middle position between the first end and the second end of the cable 61). The drive motor winds or unwinds the cable 61, changing the length between the first end and the second end of the cable 61.

[0076] Combination Figures 4 to 6As shown, in some embodiments, the telescopic assembly 6 further includes a connecting rod 63. The first end of the connecting rod 63 is pivotally connected to the body 200, and the second end of the connecting rod 63 is pivotally connected to the cleaning assembly 100. For example, in the figure, the upper end of the connecting rod 63 is hinged to the body 200, and the lower end of the connecting rod 63 is hinged to the cleaning assembly 100. The connecting rod 63 has an extended state and a folded state. When the cable 61 is in the released position, the connecting rod 63 can switch between the extended and folded states to adjust the distance between the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 and the surface to be cleaned.

[0077] For example, the linkage 63 can switch between an unfolded state and a folded state to adjust the distance between the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 and the surface to be cleaned along the height direction. In other words, the linkage 63 can be raised and lowered and folded, so that the moisture-absorbing cleaning component 3 passively follows the unevenness of the surface to be cleaned to achieve raising and lowering, maintaining good fit with the surface to be cleaned.

[0078] The present invention provides a cleaning system (not shown in the figure), including a cleaning device and a base station. The cleaning device is the cleaning device of any of the above embodiments. The cleaning device can be selectively docked at the base station, and the base station can replenish the cleaning component 100 with liquid medium.
