[0019] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0020] Please also refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiment of the present application provides a mop cleaning mechanism 100, which can be applied to a cleaning robot or a cleaning robot base station, and is suitable for cleaning the mop mechanism of the cleaning robot. The mop cleaning mechanism 100 includes a base 110 and a cleaning assembly 120. The cleaning assembly 120 includes a first cleaning member 121 and a second cleaning member 122 arranged side by side. The first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 are both rotatably arranged on the base 110. The first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 are suitable for contacting the surface of the mop mechanism and can rotate along a first circumferential direction A and a second circumferential direction B, respectively, wherein the first circumferential direction A and the second circumferential direction B are opposite.
[0021] In this embodiment, the base 110 includes a bottom shell 111 and a mounting shell 112 disposed on the bottom shell 111. The mounting shell 112 is provided with a sewage trough 1121. The notch of the sewage trough 1121 is adapted to accommodate the mopping mechanism. The cleaning assembly 120 is located within the sewage trough 1121. The size and shape of the notch of the sewage trough 1121 are adapted to the size and shape of the mopping mechanism, so that the mopping mechanism of the cleaning robot can extend into the sewage trough 1121, thereby contacting the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122. For example, the sewage trough 1121 can be formed by a recessed surface of the mounting shell 112, and the sewage trough 1121 can be a substantially rectangular trough. The mounting shell 112 is detachably connected to the bottom shell 111, making it easy for the user to remove the mounting shell 112 to clean the sewage trough 1121.
[0022] In some embodiments, the bottom housing 111 may be provided with a positioning portion 1111 for positioning the cleaning robot. The positioning portion 1111 may include a first positioning slot and a second positioning slot located on the bottom housing 111. The first positioning slot and the second positioning slot are spaced relative to each other and mate with the wheels of the cleaning robot. When the cleaning robot moves onto the base 110, the two wheels of the cleaning robot can respectively fall into the first positioning slot and the second positioning slot, at which point the mopping mechanism of the cleaning robot is perfectly positioned over the sewage tank 1121.
[0023] Please continue reading Figure 1 and Figure 2In this embodiment, the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 are rotatably connected to the mounting housing 112. The rotation axes of the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can be substantially parallel. The first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can be arranged substantially along the length of the sewage tank 1121. The length of the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can be greater than or equal to the overall length of the mopping mechanism of the cleaning robot, so that the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can perform cleaning operations along the entire length of the mopping mechanism, ensuring that even the edges of the mopping mechanism are cleaned.
[0024] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, the outer periphery of the first cleaning member 121 is provided with multiple first adhesive strips 1211. These strips 1211 can be spaced approximately around the rotation axis of the first cleaning member 121. The presence of multiple first adhesive strips 1211 on the outer periphery of the first cleaning member 121 enhances the scraping ability of the first cleaning member 121. These strips 1211 can rotate along the surface of the mop mechanism, effectively removing hair from the mop mechanism. Furthermore, the friction between the first adhesive strips 1211 and the mop mechanism generates a certain amount of static electricity, which further attracts the hair and prevents the removed hair from reattaching to the mop mechanism.
[0025] In this embodiment, the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can contact each other without interfering with the normal rotation of the two. When the hair on the mop mechanism is rolled between the first cleaning member 121 or the second cleaning member 122, the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can jointly clamp the rolled hair, thereby providing a pulling force to the rolled hair away from the mop mechanism, so that the hair is separated from the surface of the mop mechanism, and the hair rolled away from the mop mechanism can fall into the sewage tank.
[0026] In some embodiments, a plurality of second adhesive strips 1221 are provided around the outer periphery of the second cleaning member 122, and the plurality of second adhesive strips 1221 are spaced apart around the rotation axis of the second cleaning member 122. This can also enhance the scraping ability of the second cleaning member 122, and the plurality of second adhesive strips 1221 can effectively roll hair off the mopping mechanism along the surface of the mopping mechanism.
[0027] In addition, the second adhesive strips 1221 generate a certain amount of electrostatic effect after friction with the surface of the mop mechanism, which can further absorb hair and prevent the cleaned hair from adhering to the surface of the mop mechanism again. A gap 1222 is defined between two adjacent second adhesive strips 1221, and each second adhesive strip 1221 can partially extend into each gap 1222. When the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 simultaneously contact the surface of the mop mechanism and rotate in opposite directions, hair on the mop mechanism is entangled between the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122. The second adhesive strips 1221 can bring the entangled hair into the gap 1222, thereby allowing the first adhesive strips 1211 and the second adhesive strips 1221 to simultaneously clamp the hair on the mop and roll it off the mop, effectively improving the hair cleaning ability of the cleaning assembly 120. The portion of the second adhesive strip 1221 extending into the gap 1222 may abut against the first adhesive strip 1211 , so that the hair rolled into the gap 1222 may be clamped by both the first adhesive strip 1211 and the second adhesive strip 1221 , and thus rolled away from the surface of the mopping mechanism.
[0028] In some embodiments, the end of the second adhesive strip 1221 away from the second cleaning member 122 and the end of the first adhesive strip 1211 away from the first cleaning member 121 can be provided with a hook, and the barb is a hook-shaped structure. During the rotation of the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122, the barb can hook up the hair on the mop mechanism, and the hooked hair is rolled off the surface of the mop mechanism under the action of the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122.
[0029] In some embodiments, the two ends of the first rubber strip 1211 extend to the two axial ends of the first cleaning member 121, and the two ends of the second rubber strip 1221 extend to the two axial ends of the second cleaning member 122. This ensures that the first rubber strip 1211 and the second rubber strip 1221 have sufficient length to clean the mop mechanism along the entire length of the mop mechanism.
[0030] Furthermore, at least one of the first adhesive strip 1211 and the second adhesive strip 1221 is spirally arranged. For example, both the first adhesive strip 1211 and the second adhesive strip 1221 can be spirally arranged. Wherein, "spirally arranged" means that the adhesive strips (the first adhesive strip 1211 and the second adhesive strip 1221) are spirally wound around the outer peripheral wall of the cleaning member around the rotation axis of the cleaning member, wherein each adhesive strip can be wound around a partial area of the outer peripheral wall of the cleaning member. For example, the first cleaning member 121 includes a first edge and a second edge, and the first edge and the second edge are respectively located on opposite sides of the first cleaning member 121. The first adhesive strip 1211 can spiral around the rotation axis of the first cleaning member 121 from a first position point on the first edge of the first cleaning member 121 to a second position point on the second edge. The line connecting the first position point and the second position point forms an angle with the rotation axis of the first cleaning member 121, wherein the angle can be greater than 0° and less than or equal to 90°, for example, less than or equal to 30°. By arranging the first adhesive strip 1211 and the second adhesive strip 1221 in a spiral shape, the contact time between each adhesive strip and the surface of the mop mechanism can be increased, thereby ensuring that each adhesive strip can act on the mop mechanism for a longer period of time, so as to more effectively roll away the hair of the mop mechanism, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the mop cleaning mechanism 100 on the surface of the mop mechanism; in addition, in some application environments, the mop of the mop mechanism is spliced into a ring structure by gluing, so a gap or a protrusion is formed at the splicing of the mop, but the gap or protrusion formed at the splicing extends along the rotation axis of the mop mechanism. When the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 clean the mop mechanism, the rotation axis of the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can be consistent with the rotation axis of the mop mechanism. Therefore, by arranging the first adhesive strip 1211 and the second cleaning member 122 in a spiral shape, the contact time between each adhesive strip and the surface of the mop mechanism can be increased, thereby ensuring that each adhesive strip can act on the mop mechanism for a longer period of time, so as to more effectively roll away the hair of the mop mechanism, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the mop cleaning mechanism 100 on the surface of the mop mechanism; in addition, in some application environments, the mop of the mop mechanism is spliced into a ring structure by gluing, so a gap or a protrusion is formed at the splicing of the mop, but the gap or protrusion formed at the splicing is extended along the rotation axis of the mop mechanism. The first and second adhesive strips 1211 and 1221 are arranged in a spiral, which can avoid the unstable movement of the cleaning member caused by the entire first adhesive strip 1211 and the entire second adhesive strip 1221 contacting the gap or protrusion at the joint of the mop at the same time. If the cleaning member moves unstably, it will cause the current of the driving motor of the cleaning member to be unstable, and the driving motor has high power consumption. However, each part of the first and second adhesive strips 1211 and 1221 arranged in a spiral can contact the gap or protrusion in turn, effectively reducing the area of the first and second adhesive strips 1211 and 1221 in contact with the gap or protrusion at the same time, thereby reducing the force generated by the two when they contact the gap or protrusion, so that the first and second adhesive strips 1211 and 1221 can pass through the gap and protrusion at the joint smoothly, avoiding the problems of unstable current of the driving motor and high power consumption of the driving motor.
[0031] In some application environments, the mop mechanism does not have a joint, or the gap or protrusion at the joint of the mop mechanism is arranged in a spiral shape. Accordingly, the first rubber strip 1211 and the second rubber strip 1221 can be arranged along the rotation axis of the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122, respectively. The arrangement direction and shape of the first rubber strip 1211 and the second rubber strip 1221 can be adjusted according to actual needs. The above is only an example in the embodiment of the present application and is not a specific limitation.
[0032] In addition, in some embodiments, the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can be provided with multiple reinforcing ribs, each of which can be provided between two adjacent first rubber strips 1211. For example, the reinforcing rib can be connected to the portion of the outer peripheral wall of the first cleaning member 121 located between the two adjacent first rubber strips 1211, and respectively connected to the two adjacent first rubber strips 1211, which can effectively increase the connection strength between the first rubber strip 1211 and the first cleaning member 121.
[0033] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the mop cleaning mechanism 100 further includes a driving assembly 130, which includes a driving portion 131, a first driving shaft 132, and a second driving shaft 133. The driving portion 131 can be a driving motor, and the first driving shaft 132 and the second driving shaft 133 are transmission-connected to the driving portion 131. The driving portion 131 can drive the first driving shaft 132 and the second driving shaft 133 to rotate along the first circumferential direction A and the second circumferential direction B respectively through a gear mechanism. For example, the gear mechanism may include an intermediate gear, a first gear and a second gear. The first gear and the second gear are respectively arranged on the outer periphery of the first driving shaft 132 and the outer periphery of the second driving shaft 133. The intermediate gear is located between the first gear and the second gear and meshes with the first gear and the second gear. When the driving motor drives the intermediate gear to rotate, the first gear and the second gear drive the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 to rotate respectively along the following directions: Figure 2 The first circumferential direction A and the second circumferential direction B shown in the figure are rotated. In addition, the above-mentioned intermediate gear may not be provided, and the gear mechanism may include a reduction gear set. The above-mentioned first gear and the second gear are directly engaged with each other. The driving part 131 can drive the first gear to rotate along the first circumferential direction A through the reduction gear set, and the second gear rotates along the second circumferential direction B driven by the first gear, thereby realizing that the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 rotate along the first circumferential direction A and the second circumferential direction B respectively.
[0034] Further, in some embodiments, as Figure 4As shown, the mop cleaning mechanism 100 includes a first rotating shaft 141 and a second rotating shaft 142. The first cleaning member 121 is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 141, and the second cleaning member 122 is sleeved on the second rotating shaft 142. The ends of the first drive shaft 132 and the second drive shaft 133 are both provided with a locking portion 1321. The first rotating shaft 141 and the second rotating shaft 142 are provided with a buckling portion 1411 that cooperates with the locking portion 1321. By sleeved the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 on the first rotating shaft 141 and the second rotating shaft 142, respectively, the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can be easily removed and replaced. As an example, the locking portion 1321 may include a locking groove provided on the end faces of the first drive shaft 132 and the second drive shaft 133. The shape of the buckling portion 1411 is adapted to the shape of the locking groove. When the buckling portion 1411 is inserted into the locking groove, the buckling portion 1411 and the locking groove are mutually limited and locked, so that the first rotating shaft 141 cannot slip relative to the first drive shaft 132, and the second rotating shaft 142 cannot slip relative to the second drive shaft 133. In addition, it is convenient for the user to directly remove the first rotating shaft 141 and the second rotating shaft 142 from the corresponding locking grooves, so that the user can clean the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122.
[0035] In some embodiments, as Figure 5As shown, the mop cleaning mechanism 100 further includes a flushing assembly 150, which includes a pump body 151 and a flushing member 152. The flushing member 152 is provided with a water spray port (not shown). The pump body 151 is connected to the water spray port to pump clean water from the water spray port to the bottom of the mop mechanism, the first cleaning member 121, and the second cleaning member 122, so as to clean the mop mechanism and the cleaning assembly 120. Exemplarily, the flushing member 152 is provided with a plurality of water spray ports, some of which are directed toward the cleaning assembly 120, and the other portion of which are directed toward the mop mechanism of the cleaning robot. When the mop mechanism of the cleaning robot is cleaning, the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can be pressed against the mop mechanism, and both can apply a certain force to the surface of the mop mechanism. The first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can not only roll the hair on the mop mechanism away from the mop mechanism, but also scrape the sewage on the mop mechanism into the sewage tank 1121. The first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can roll the hair on the mop mechanism to the side away from the mop mechanism, that is, the hair is Wrapped around the bottom of the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122, the flushing assembly 150 can flush the mop mechanism and the bottom of the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 at the same time. The hair at the bottom of the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 is directly flushed into the sewage tank 1121. While flushing the mop mechanism, the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can keep cleaning the mop mechanism, that is, flushing and cleaning at the same time until the mop mechanism is clean.
[0036] In some embodiments, the flushing member 152 includes a first pipe 1521, a second pipe 1522 and a connecting pipe 1523. The first pipe 1521 and the second pipe 1522 are arranged along the setting direction of the first cleaning member 121 and are located on opposite sides of the cleaning component 120. The first pipe 1521 and the second pipe 1522 are both provided with multiple spaced-apart water spray outlets. The first pipe 1521 and the second pipe 1522 can extend generally along the length of the sewage tank 1121. Multiple water spray nozzles are spaced apart on the first pipe 1521 and the second pipe 1522. Some of the water spray nozzles on the first pipe 1521 can direct water toward the first cleaning member 121, while others can direct water toward the mopping mechanism. Some of the water spray nozzles on the second pipe 1522 can direct water toward the second cleaning member 122, while others can direct water toward the mopping mechanism. This allows the mopping mechanism, the first cleaning member 121, and the second cleaning member 122 to be cleaned simultaneously. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the direction of the water spray nozzles can be adjusted, allowing the water spray nozzles to selectively direct water toward the mopping mechanism, the first cleaning member 121, or the second cleaning member 122.
[0037] In some embodiments, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the mounting shell 112 is provided with a sewage suction port 1121 connected to the sewage tank 1121 and a sewage recovery assembly 160. The sewage recovery assembly 160 is connected to the sewage suction port 1121 for recovering the sewage in the sewage tank 1121. As an example, the sewage recovery assembly 160 may include a recovery power member and a sewage tank. The sewage tank is connected to the sewage suction port. The recovery power member is used to recover the sewage in the sewage tank 1121 into the sewage tank. The recovery power member may be a vacuum pump, which is connected to the sewage tank. When the vacuum pump is working, it extracts the air in the sewage tank, so that a negative pressure is generated in the sewage tank, so that the sewage suction port forms a suction force on the sewage in the sewage tank 1121, so that the sewage in the sewage tank 1121 can be recovered into the sewage tank. Since the sewage does not pass through the vacuum pump, it will not cause blockage of the vacuum pump.
[0038] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the recovery power element may be a water pump, and the sewage suction port 1121 may be provided with a filter screen to filter the sewage and prevent debris such as hair from entering the water pump and causing pipe blockage. Furthermore, the filter screen may not be required, and the number of sewage suction ports 1121 may be multiple, and the multiple sewage suction ports 1121 may be arranged regularly or irregularly to form a porous mesh structure. The pore size of the sewage suction ports 1121 may be less than or equal to 3 mm to filter the sewage.
[0039] The mop cleaning mechanism 100 provided in the present application, when performing a cleaning operation on the mop mechanism, the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 are in contact with the surface of the mop mechanism at the same time, and each rotates in opposite directions to roll up the hair on the surface of the mop mechanism from different directions, thereby achieving rapid cleaning of hair and other debris.
[0040] See also Figure 7 An embodiment of the present application provides a cleaning robot base station 200. The cleaning robot base station 200 is applied with the above-mentioned mop cleaning mechanism 100. The cleaning robot base station 200 is adapted to a cleaning robot and has functions such as cleaning, adding water, and pumping sewage.
[0041] The cleaning robot base station 200 may include a base station housing 210 having a receiving space 211 for the cleaning robot to enter. The mop cleaning mechanism 100 may be disposed in the receiving space 211 , wherein the chassis of the mop cleaning mechanism 100 may serve as the bottom structure of the base station housing 210 .
[0042] See also Figure 8 and Figure 9The embodiment of the present application also provides a cleaning robot system 400, including a cleaning robot 300 and the above-mentioned mop cleaning mechanism 100, the cleaning robot 300 includes a mobile chassis 320 and a mop mechanism 310, the mop mechanism 310 is arranged at the bottom of the mobile chassis 320, and the mop mechanism 310 can be moved to a position corresponding to the above-mentioned position under the drive of the mobile chassis 320. Figure 2 The first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 are in contact with each other, so that the mop cleaning mechanism 100 cleans the mop mechanism 310. The mop mechanism 310 may be a modular structure, and the mop mechanism 310 may be detachably mounted on the mobile chassis 320.
[0043] As an example, the mop mechanism 310 may include a mop 311 and a rotating assembly 312, the mop 311 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the rotating assembly 312, and the rotating assembly 312 is used to drive the mop 311 to rotate. Exemplarily, the rotating assembly 312 may include a driving roller 3121 and a rotating roller 3122, the driving roller 3121 and the rotating roller 3122 are arranged opposite to each other, the mop 311 is sleeved on the driving roller 3121 and the rotating roller 3122, and is in a tensioned state under the action of the driving roller 3121 and the rotating roller 3122, and is roughly tensioned into an elliptical ring structure, and the lower surface of the mop 311 is at least partially a flat surface, so that the mop 311 can be attached to the ground and have a larger contact area with the ground, so as to increase the cleaning area of the ground by the cleaning robot 300 at one time. The driving roller 3121 is used to provide rotational power to the mop 311. The rotating roller 3122, driven by the driving roller 3121, can rotate synchronously and in the same direction as the driving roller 3121, so that the mop 311 rotates in one direction, forming a structure similar to a crawler. When the mop rotates, it can generate friction with the ground to wipe away dirt on the ground.
[0044] When the cleaning robot moves to the mop cleaning mechanism 100, the mop mechanism 310 is located in the sewage tank 1121 of the mop cleaning mechanism 100 and contacts the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122. In one cleaning method, when the mop cleaning mechanism 100 is cleaning the mop 311, the rotating assembly 312 can drive the mop 311 to rotate, while the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 rotate along the first circumferential direction A and the second circumferential direction B, respectively, to clean hair and other debris and sewage from the mop 311. In another cleaning method, when the mop cleaning mechanism 100 is cleaning the mop 311, the rotating component 312 can first keep the mop 311 stationary, and the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 rotate along the first circumferential direction A and the second circumferential direction B respectively to clean the lower surface of the mop 311. After the preset cleaning time, the rotating component 312 controls the mop 311 to rotate at a preset angle so that the uncleaned upper surface of the mop 311 rotates downward to contact the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122. The first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can clean this part of the surface in the same cleaning method. After the preset cleaning time, the rotating component 312 can drive the mop 311 to rotate again at a preset angle, and the cycle is repeated until the entire mop 311 is completely cleaned.
[0045] In the cleaning robot system 400 provided in an embodiment of the present application, when the mop cleaning mechanism 100 performs a cleaning operation on the mop mechanism 310, the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 simultaneously contact the surface of the mop mechanism 310 and rotate in opposite directions respectively to wind up the hair on the surface of the mop mechanism 310 from different directions, thereby achieving rapid cleaning of hair and other debris. The rotating component 312 can drive the mop 311 to rotate until the entire mop 311 is completely cleaned.
