[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 , the present application proposes a sweeping robot 100.

[0044] In an embodiment of the present application, the robot 100 comprises a housing 10, a water tank 30 and a locking assembly 50; wherein the water tank 30 is installed on the housing 10, the water tank 30 is provided with a movable handle 31; the locking assembly 50 is arranged on the water tank 30 and connected with the housing 10, so that the water tank 30 is locked on the housing 10; the locking assembly 50 can also be driven by the handle 31 and separated from the housing 10 when being driven by the handle 31, so that the water tank 30 is unlocked on the housing 10.

[0045] In an embodiment of the present application, the housing 10 can be mainly used for installing and carrying various mechanisms of the robot 100, such as the water tank 30, so that the various mechanisms of the robot 100 form a whole to facilitate carrying and management. The projection of the shape of the housing 10 on the working surface of the robot 100 can be circular, so as to facilitate the robot to complete the steering work, and also to reduce the possibility of scratching the robot and walls and other objects. Of course, in order to facilitate the robot 100 to clean the working surface located at the corner of the wall, the projection of the shape of the housing 10 on the working surface of the robot 100 can also be square. The material of the housing 10 can be plastic material, such as ABS, POM, PS, PMMA, PC, PET, etc., so as to reduce the weight of the robot 100 and facilitate carrying. Of course, the present application is not limited to this, in other embodiments, the material of the housing 10 can also be metal material, such as aluminum material, aluminum alloy material, copper material, copper alloy material, iron material, stainless steel material, so as to improve the strength of the housing 10 and prolong its service life. The water tank 30 can be mainly used for water storage and water supply to the working surface during the working of the robot 100, so as to improve the cleaning effect of the robot 100 on the working surface. The handle 31 can be mainly used for the user to hold, so as to exert force on the water tank 30 by the user for taking and placing. The locking assembly 50 can be mainly used for locking the water tank 30, reducing the possibility of shaking of the water tank 30 during the working of the robot 100, so as to work normally and stably.

[0046] The water tank 30 of the robot 100 of the technical scheme of the present application is connected with the housing 10 through the locking assembly 50 when being installed on the housing 10, so as to lock the water tank 30 on the housing 10. When the water tank 30 is disassembled, the handle 31 arranged on the water tank 30 is pulled, so that the locking assembly 50 is driven by the handle 31 and separated from the housing 10, so as to unlock the water tank 30 on the housing 10.

[0047] The water tank 30 of the sweeping robot 100 in the present solution is unlocked and taken out by pulling the handle 31 when disassembled, so that the disassembly process of the water tank 30 can be completed with only one operation action. Compared with the disassembly process of the water tank 30 of the sweeping robot 100 in the prior art, which usually requires two non-consecutive operation actions of pressing the unlocking switch and pulling the handle 31, the operation action in the disassembly process of the water tank 30 in the present solution is smoother, so that the disassembly process is simplified, thereby improving the convenience of disassembling the water tank 30.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 In an embodiment of the present application, the locking assembly 50 comprises a driving member 51 and a locking member 53, the driving member 51 is arranged on the water tank 30; the locking member 53 is connected to the driving member 51, and the driving member 51 drives the locking member 53 to be close to and connected to the shell 10, and the handle 31 drives the locking member 53 to be away from and separated from the shell 10.

[0049] It can be understood that the locking member 53 is driven by the driving member 51 to be close to the shell 10, and is driven by the handle 31 to be away from the shell 10. At this time, the two movement processes of the locking member 53 are controlled by different power sources, which can make the two movement processes more independent and improve the stability of the locking member 53 working in the two movement processes. Of course, the present application is not limited to this, and in other embodiments, the locking member 53 can also be connected to the handle 31 and driven by the handle 31 to be close to or away from the shell 10 to realize the locking and unlocking of the water tank 30. For example, the shell 10 can be provided with a limiting recess, and the locking member 53 can be provided with a limiting protrusion. When the handle 31 drives the locking member 53 to move to the locking position, the limiting protrusion is elastically clamped into the limiting recess, so that the locking member 53 and the shell 10 are connected. When the handle 31 drives the locking member 53 to be away from the locking position, the limiting protrusion is elastically separated from the limiting recess, so that the locking member 53 and the shell 10 are separated. Alternatively, the handle 31 can be connected with a torsional spring, and the torsional spring drives the handle 31 to rotate relative to the water tank 30 to drive the locking member 53 to be close to the shell 10 and connected thereto.

[0050] In an embodiment of the present application, the driving member 51 is a spring 511, the spring 511 has two opposite ends, one end of the spring 511 is connected to the water tank 30; the locking member 53 is a plug-in seat 531, the plug-in seat 531 is movable relative to the water tank 30 and connected to the other end of the spring 511; the shell 10 is provided with a plug-in slot 11, the spring 511 drives the plug-in seat 531 to be inserted into the plug-in slot 11, and the handle 31 drives the plug-in seat 531 to be pulled out of the plug-in slot 11.

[0051] It can be understood that the spring 511 has the advantages of convenient installation and low cost, so that the installation convenience of the driving member 51 can be improved, and the manufacturing cost of the driving member 51 is reduced. Moreover, the spring 511 can continuously apply the abutting force to the locking member 53, so that the locking member 53 can be connected with the shell 10 at all times during the working process of the robot cleaner 100, thereby improving the stability of the water tank 30 during the working process of the robot cleaner 100. Of course, the present application is not limited to this, and in other embodiments, the driving member 51 can also be a telescopic pipe or a spring piece. The locking member 53 is the plug-in seat 531, so that the locking member 53 and the shell 10 are limited by plug-in cooperation, and when the plug-in seat 531 is separated from the plug-in groove 11 of the shell 10, the water tank 30 can be unlocked, so that the connection structure of the locking member 53 and the shell 10 can be simplified, thereby further improving the convenience of disassembling the water tank 30. In order to improve the stability of the connection between the plug-in seat 531 and the shell 10, the projection of the plug-in seat 531 on the horizontal plane can be a rectangular shape, and the shape of the plug-in groove 11 is adapted to the insertion part of the plug-in seat 531, so as to increase the abutting area of the plug-in seat 531 and the shell 10. Of course, the present application is not limited to this, and in other embodiments, the locking member 53 can also be a first magnetic block, and the shell 10 is provided with a second magnetic block, which can be adsorbed and fixed with the second magnetic block when the first magnetic block is driven by the spring 511 to approach the shell 10.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In an embodiment of the present application, the wall surface of the plug-in seat 531 facing the spring 511 is provided with a first guide portion 5311, and the wall surface of the water tank 30 facing the plug-in seat 531 is provided with a second guide portion 33, the second guide portion 33 and the first guide portion 5311 are oppositely arranged, and the spring 511 is sleeved on the outer wall surfaces of the first guide portion 5311 and the second guide portion 33.

[0053] It can be understood that the first guide part 5311 and the second guide part 33 also have a guiding effect on the spring 511, can make the spring 511 exert a force on the plug-in seat 531 parallel to the moving direction of the plug-in seat 531, and ensure that the spring 511 drives the plug-in seat 531 to accurately insert into the plug-in slot 11. At the same time, the spring 511 can be sleeved by the first guide part 5311 and the second guide part 33, so that the two ends of the spring 511 abut against the water tank 30 and the plug-in seat 531 respectively, thereby simplifying the connection structure of the spring 511 and improving the convenience of assembling the locking assembly 50. The first guide part 5311 and the second guide part 33 can be plate-shaped, so as to reduce the manufacturing materials required by the first guide part 5311 and the second guide part 33 and reduce the manufacturing cost. Of course, the first guide part 5311 and the second guide part 33 can also be cylindrical, so as to adapt to the shape of the spring 511 and improve the fixing and guiding effect on the spring 511. The first guide part 5311 can be provided with a avoiding space 5313 at one end facing the first guide part 5311. When the plug-in seat 531 is driven by the handle 31 to move away from the cabinet 10 and approach the water tank 30, the second guide part 33 is inserted into the avoiding space 5313, so as to further improve the stability of the plug-in seat 531 in the moving process through the plug-in guiding of the second guide part 33 and the avoiding space 5313. In addition, it should be noted that the present application is not limited to this, and in other embodiments, the spring 511 can be sleeved on the outer wall surface of the first guide part 5311 and the second guide part 33, and the two ends of the spring 511 are also fixedly connected with the water tank 30 and the plug-in seat 531 respectively, so as to further improve the stability of the spring 511. Alternatively, the spring 511 is only fixed by the two ends thereof respectively connected with the water tank 30 and the plug-in seat 531.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present application, the wall surface of the plug-in seat 531 facing the spring 511 is provided with a spring accommodating groove 5315, the first guide part 5311 is protruded on the groove bottom wall of the spring accommodating groove 5315, and one end of the spring 511 close to the plug-in seat 531 is embedded in the spring accommodating groove 5315.

[0055] It can be understood that the spring accommodating groove 5315 gives the spring 511 an accommodating space, which can make the spring 511 and the plug-in seat 531 more compact, thereby reducing the space occupied by the locking assembly 50 and improving the convenience of installation. At the same time, the setting of the spring accommodating groove 5315 also reduces the raw materials required for manufacturing the plug-in seat 531, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the plug-in seat 531.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7In an embodiment of the present application, the handle 31 is rotatably arranged on the water tank 30, and a part of the handle 31 abuts against the wall of the plug-in seat 531 away from the spring 511.

[0057] It can be understood that the rotatable arrangement of the handle 31 can make the moving path of the handle 31 arcuate, and the handle 31 always moves in the rotating circle formed by the rotating radius of the handle 31. At this time, the handle 31 does not need to occupy a large space due to a large moving path, so that the handle 31 can be more compactly installed on the water tank 30. At the same time, such an arrangement also makes the handle 31 and the plug-in seat 531 abut against each other, without the need for a connecting structure, thereby simplifying the structure of the locking assembly 50 and reducing the manufacturing cost of the locking assembly 50. In addition, it should be noted that the present application is not limited to this, and in other embodiments, the handle 31 can also be slidably arranged on the water tank 30. At this time, the plug-in seat 531 can be connected to the handle 31 through a rotating connecting rod, so that the handle 31 can drive the plug-in seat 531 to move by driving the rotating connecting rod to rotate when the handle 31 moves.

[0058] In an embodiment of the present application, the handle 31 comprises a rotating part 311 and a holding part 313, the rotating part 311 is rotatably connected to the water tank 30, the rotating part 311 is provided with an abutting block which abuts against the wall of the plug-in seat 531 away from the spring 511, and the holding part 313 is connected to the rotating part 311.

[0059] It can be understood that the handle 31 is composed of the rotating part 311 and the holding part 313, so that the handle 31 can be connected to the water tank 30 through the rotating part 311 and held by the user through the holding part 313. In this way, the division of labor of each region of the handle 31 can be clear, the possibility of interference can be reduced, and the convenience of connection and holding of the handle 31 can be improved. At this time, when the user pulls the holding part 313, the rotating part 311 can rotate due to the connection between the rotating part 311 and the holding part 313, and the plug-in seat 531 can be driven to descend by the abutting block, and the plug-in seat 531 is separated from the plug-in slot 11 when the plug-in seat 531 descends to a certain distance, thereby achieving the unlocking of the water tank 30. When the water tank 30 is installed in the cabinet 10, the spring 511 drives the plug-in seat 531 to ascend, so that the plug-in seat 531 is clamped and fixed by the spring 511 and the abutting block, and at the same time, the plug-in seat 531 is inserted into the plug-in slot 11, thereby achieving the fixation of the water tank 30. Further, the rotating part 311 and the holding part 313 can be detachably connected, so that the whole can be replaced when a local damage occurs, thereby reducing the replacement cost of the handle 31. At the same time, the rotating part 311 and the holding part 313 can be separately manufactured and assembled to form a whole after the respective manufacturing is completed, thereby reducing the complexity of the forming and manufacturing of the handle 31. The rotating part 311 and the holding part 313 can be connected through screws or buckles, etc.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 In an embodiment of the present application, the rotating part 311 has two opposite ends, and the two opposite ends of the rotating part 311 are provided with clamping blocks 3113, the two clamping blocks 3113 are arranged towards the insertion seat 531 and abut against the two opposite ends of the insertion seat 531, and at least one of the wall surfaces of the two clamping blocks 3113 facing each other is provided with an abutting block.

[0061] It can be understood that the two clamping blocks 3113 and the wall surface of the rotating part 311 facing the insertion seat 531 can enclose a movement space, and at the same time have a guiding and limiting effect on the insertion seat 531, so that the insertion seat 531 can only move in the direction of approaching or moving away from the shell 10 within the movement space. The rotating connection between the handle 31 and the water tank 30 can be realized by the combination of the rotating shaft 3111 and the rotating hole 35, so as to simplify the rotating connection structure between the two. Specifically, the wall surface of the two clamping blocks 3113 facing away from each other can be provided with the rotating shaft 3111, the water tank 30 is provided with the rotating hole 35, and the rotating shaft 3111 is inserted into the rotating hole 35. Of course, the present application is not limited to this, and in other embodiments, the rotating connection between the handle 31 and the water tank 30 can also be realized by hingedly connecting the two.

[0062] Please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 In an embodiment of the present application, the upper surface of the water tank 30 is provided with a seat accommodating groove 36, and the side surface of the water tank 30 is further provided with a handle accommodating groove 37 communicating with the seat accommodating groove 36; the spring 511, the insertion seat 531, and the rotating part 311 are all embedded in the seat accommodating groove 36; the gripping part 313 is embedded in the handle accommodating groove 37 and partially extends into the seat accommodating groove 36 and is connected with the rotating part 311.

[0063] It can be understood that the arrangement of the seat accommodating groove 36 and the handle accommodating groove 37 gives the installation space, which can make the locking assembly 50 and the handle 31 more compactly installed on the water tank 30, thereby reducing the overall volume of the water tank 30. At the same time, the seat accommodating groove 36 and the handle accommodating groove 37 can also have a certain protective effect on the locking assembly 50 and the handle 31, respectively, reducing the possibility of damage caused by external collisions, thereby prolonging the service life of the locking assembly 50 and the handle 31. Among them, the opposite two groove side walls of the seat accommodating groove 36 are provided with a rotating hole 35, and the rotating part 311 is rotatably connected to the groove side wall of the seat accommodating groove 36. Further, the groove side wall of the seat accommodating groove 36 can be protruded with a limiting block 38, which abuts against the upper surface of the clamping block 3113. In this way, the abutting limiting effect of the limiting block 38 can avoid the rotating part 311 from being driven by the driving force of the spring 511 when the driving force is large. In addition, in order to further improve the protection of the locking assembly 50, please refer to Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 The upper surface of the water tank 30 can also be detachably provided with a cover plate 39, which covers the slot opening of the seat accommodating groove 36 and is provided with a through hole for the plug-in seat 531 to pass through. Among them, the cover plate 39 can be connected to the water tank 30 by screws or buckles. In order to make the upper surface of the water tank 30 more flat, the upper surface of the water tank 30 can be provided with a cover plate accommodating groove 39a, and the seat accommodating groove 36 is arranged on the groove bottom wall of the cover plate accommodating groove 39a, and the cover plate 39 is embedded in the cover plate accommodating groove 39a.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In an embodiment of the present application, the side surface of the cabinet 10 is provided with a tank accommodating groove 13, and the water tank 30 is embedded in the tank accommodating groove 13. The groove top wall of the tank accommodating groove 13 is provided with a plug-in groove 11 at the position corresponding to the plug-in seat 531.

[0065] It can be understood that the arrangement of the tank accommodating groove 13 makes it possible to limit the water tank 30 in the up-down direction through the groove top wall and the groove bottom wall of the tank accommodating groove 13. At this time, the plug-in seat 531 only needs to limit the front-rear direction of the water tank 30, thereby simplifying the structure of the locking assembly 50. At the same time, the tank accommodating groove 13 also gives the installation space, which can make the water tank 30 more compactly installed on the cabinet 10, thereby reducing the overall volume of the robot sweeper 100. Moreover, the tank accommodating groove 13 also has a certain protective effect on the water tank 30, reducing the possibility of damage caused by external collisions, thereby prolonging the service life of the water tank 30. Please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5In order to facilitate the water tank 30 to be put into the box accommodating groove 13, the plug-in seat 531 can be provided with a guide surface 5317 to abut against the groove top wall of the box accommodating groove 13 during the putting process of the water tank 30 and be driven to descend and embed into the seat accommodating groove 36, so as to realize the automatic retraction of the plug-in seat 531. Then when the water tank 30 moves to the preset installation position, that is, the plug-in seat 531 corresponds to the plug-in groove 11 on the groove top wall of the box accommodating groove 13, the plug-in seat 531 rises again and is inserted into the plug-in groove 11.

[0066] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present application, and do not limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structural transformation made under the inventive concept of the present application, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields, is included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
