[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention provides a base 1 for a clothes processing device, the base 1 is used for a cleaning device 4 to dock, the cleaning device 4 can be used to automatically clean the dust and hair on the ground, and in the case where a mop is provided on the cleaning device 4, the cleaning device 4 can mop the ground after cleaning the ground. The function of the cleaning device in the embodiment of the present invention does not limit the structure of the base. And the functions of the base 1 in the embodiment of the present invention include but are not limited to charging, dust removal, cleaning, drying and disinfecting the cleaning device 4.

[0044] It should be noted that the base 1 in the embodiment of the present invention is applied to a clothing processing device, which may include various forms, such as a washing machine, a dehydrator, and a washer-dryer, etc. The specific application scenario of the clothing processing device does not limit the structure of the base of the present invention.

[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the base 1 of the embodiment of the present invention includes a shell 2 and a dust collection component 3. A cleaning chamber 22 is provided inside the shell 2, and the cleaning chamber 22 is used for the cleaning device 4 to dock, so as to realize operations such as charging and cleaning of the cleaning device 4. The outside of the cleaning chamber 22 is used to install components related to operations such as charging and cleaning. The dust collection component 3 in the embodiment of the present invention is arranged outside the cleaning chamber 22. When the cleaning device 4 is docked in the cleaning chamber 22, the dust collection component 3 can be used to absorb dust and other garbage stored in the dust storage space inside the cleaning device 4, so as to vacate the dust storage space inside the cleaning device 4, thereby facilitating the cleaning device 4 to perform the next dust removal work.

[0046] like Figure 3 As shown, the dust collecting assembly 3 is provided with a dust collecting port 31 suitable for communicating with the cleaning device 4, and the dust collecting port 31 is used to absorb dust and other garbage stored in the dust storage space of the cleaning device 4; the dust collecting assembly 3 is also provided with a return air port 32 communicating with the cleaning chamber 22, and the return air port 32 is used to guide the gas in the dust collecting assembly 3 to the cleaning device 4. Figure 2 As shown, a dust storage space for storing dust and other garbage is provided inside the cleaning device 4, and an inlet and an outlet connected to the dust storage space are also provided on the surface of the cleaning device 4. When the cleaning device 4 is docked in the cleaning chamber 22, the outlet of the cleaning device 4 is connected to the dust collecting port 31 of the dust collection component 3, and the inlet of the cleaning device 4 is connected to the return air port 32 of the dust collection component 3, so that the dust storage space of the cleaning device 4 and the dust collection component 3 are connected to each other and are relatively closed to the outside, and the gas can form a circulating air path between the dust storage space of the cleaning device 4 and the dust collection component 3, that is, the gas can circulate between the dust storage space and the dust collection component, and will not flow to the outside of the cleaning device 4 and the dust collection component 3, and the external gas will not flow to the inside of the cleaning device 4 and the dust collection component 3.

[0047] It should be noted that the connection referred to in the present invention can be direct connection, such as the dust collecting port 31 and the cleaning device 4 are directly connected to achieve connection; it can also be indirect connection, such as the dust collecting port 31 and the cleaning device 4 are connected through other channels or auxiliary equipment.

[0048] In the embodiment of the present invention, the dust collecting port 31 of the dust suction component 3 is connected with the outlet of the cleaning device 4, and the return air port 32 of the dust suction component 3 is connected with the inlet of the cleaning device 4. A circulating air path is formed between the dust suction component 3 and the inside of the cleaning device 4. The dust suction component 3 absorbs dust into the dust storage space of the cleaning device 4 through the dust collecting port 31, and the dust suction component 3 filters the dust and conducts the gas. The gas flows from the dust storage space to the dust suction component to generate a pressure difference, so that the dust storage space in the cleaning device generates a negative pressure. The gas filtered out after passing through the dust suction component will flow back to the dust storage space in the cleaning device through the return air port under the action of the negative pressure. As a result, the gas realizes an internal circulation between the dust suction component 3 and the cleaning device, and the gas continuously passes through the dust storage space and brings the dust in the dust storage space into the dust suction component through the dust collecting port. The dust suction component continuously collects dust and guides the filtered gas back to the dust storage space, and circulates in sequence until the gas transfers all the dust in the dust storage space to the dust suction component, thereby realizing the dust removal of the cleaning device by the dust suction component.

[0049] The embodiment of the present invention provides a base, the base 1 includes a shell 2 and a dust collecting assembly 3, a cleaning chamber 22 is provided inside the shell 2, and the dust collecting assembly 3 is provided with a dust collecting port 31 and a return air port 32 suitable for communicating with a cleaning device 4, and the dust collecting port 31 is used to absorb dust in the cleaning device 4. The embodiment of the present invention provides the dust collecting port 31 and the return air port 32 in the dust collecting assembly 3, and when the cleaning device 4 is docked in the cleaning chamber 22, the dust collecting port 31 and the return air port 32 are respectively docked with the cleaning device 4, so as to form a circulation channel between the dust collecting assembly 3 and the cleaning device 4, and the gas is continuously circulated between the dust collecting assembly 3 and the cleaning device 4, and the dust in the cleaning device 4 can be transferred to the dust collecting assembly 3 following the circulating airflow, so as to realize the dust removal of the cleaning device 4; in terms of the technology of improving the compactness of the base structure, the internal circulation can also be used to realize the transfer of dust, and the circulating air path between the dust collecting assembly and the cleaning device has good airtightness, which is conducive to improving the efficiency of dust transfer; in addition, the embodiment of the present invention applies the base to the clothing processing device, which is conducive to saving storage space.

[0050] In some embodiments, the return air port 32 can be directly connected to the atmosphere, so that the gas in the atmosphere can flow into the return air port 32 and be blown into the cleaning equipment 4 through the return air port 32. It can be understood that the gas blown into the cleaning equipment through the return air port 32 can be either the clean gas after the dust is filtered by the dust collection component 3, or the gas in the atmosphere.

[0051] In some embodiments, Figure 4 For ease of observation, Figure 4The structure of the shell is omitted, and the dust collection component 3 includes an air intake channel 33, a dust collector 34 and an exhaust channel 35. The air intake channel 33 has two opposite ends in the extension direction, one end of which is set as a dust collecting port 31, and the other end of the air intake channel 33 is connected to the dust collector 34, wherein the air intake channel 33 can be set as a hose, so that the air intake channel 33 can cooperate with other components during the assembly process. Of course, the air intake channel 33 can also be directly formed by the shell. In some embodiments, a rubber part may be provided at the dust collecting port 31 of the air intake channel 33, and the rubber part is arranged around the dust collecting port 31. By providing the rubber part, the sealing of the connection between the dust collecting port and the cleaning equipment can be increased, which is beneficial to improve the efficiency of transferring dust in the cleaning equipment to the dust collector 34. The dust collector 34 in the embodiment of the present invention is used to filter dust introduced from the dust collecting port 31. As Figure 4 As shown, one end of the exhaust channel 35 is connected to the dust collector 34, and the other end of the exhaust channel 35 is provided with a return air port 32. The exhaust channel is used to discharge the gas filtered by the dust collector 34 to the cleaning equipment. In some embodiments, the exhaust channel 35 can be set as a soft channel to facilitate the coordination of the exhaust channel 35 with other components during the assembly process. A rubber part can be provided at the return air port 32 of the exhaust channel 35. The rubber part is arranged around the return air port 32. By arranging the rubber part, the sealing of the connection between the return air port and the cleaning equipment can be increased, which is beneficial to improve the efficiency of transferring dust in the cleaning equipment to the dust collector 34.

[0052] like Figure 4 As shown, the gas forms an internal circulation between the cleaning device 4 and the dust collection component 3. The gas passes through the cleaning device 4, and the dust in the cleaning device 4 follows the gas to flow from the air inlet channel 33 to the dust collector 34. The dust collector 34 can filter the passing gas, that is, the dust collector 34 collects the passing dust and conducts the flowing gas. The gas flows from the dust collector 34 to the exhaust channel 35. The gas flows back to the cleaning device 4 through the exhaust channel. The gas takes away the dust in the cleaning device 4 again, and circulates in sequence to achieve the transfer of the dust in the cleaning device 4 to the dust collector 34. In the embodiment of the present invention, by configuring the dust collection component as an air inlet channel, a dust collector and an air outlet channel, the air inlet channel and the air outlet channel are easier to assemble with other components, and it is beneficial to reduce the difficulty of assembling the dust collector, and it is beneficial to improve the space utilization rate of the base, thereby reducing the assembly size of the base.

[0053] In some embodiments, Figure 4As shown, the dust collecting port 31 is close to the dust collector 34 relative to the return air port 32. It can be understood that the dust collecting port 31 is arranged between the return air port 32 and the dust collector 34, which makes the length of the air intake channel 33 smaller than the length of the exhaust channel 35. The embodiment of the present invention helps to shorten the path of dust flowing from the cleaning equipment to the dust collector 34 by setting the length of the air intake channel 33 shorter, thereby reducing the risk of dust being retained in the air intake channel 33, increasing the smoothness of the air intake channel 33, and further improving the dust suction efficiency of the dust collector.

[0054] In some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the front end of the cleaning chamber 22 is provided with an opening 221; Figure 2 As shown, the opening 221 is connected to the cleaning chamber 22. It should be noted that the opening 221 represents an opening with a larger cross-sectional size. By setting the opening 221 in the cleaning chamber 22, it is convenient for the cleaning device 4 to move from the opening 221 to the cleaning chamber 22. The exhaust channel 35 detours from the rear end of the cleaning chamber 22 to the right end of the cleaning chamber 22 and is connected to the dust collector 34. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, the front end of the cleaning chamber 22 can be regarded as the end close to the user, and the end away from the user can be regarded as the rear end of the cleaning chamber 22. The air inlet channel 33 and the dust collector 34 are also arranged at the right end of the cleaning chamber 22.

[0055] The embodiment of the present invention distributes the dust collection components at the rear end and the right end of the cleaning chamber, thereby dispersing the dust collection components in two directions, reducing the size of the dust collection components in one direction, and arranging them side by side with the cleaning chamber, which is beneficial to reducing the overall height of the base. The air intake channel, the exhaust channel and the dust collector are all arranged horizontally, reducing the risk that impurities with large gravity cannot be sucked upward into the dust collector due to the longitudinal arrangement, and can also reduce the risk of residual dust in the channel (air intake channel or exhaust channel) falling out of the channel into the dust collector when the user takes out the dust collector.

[0056] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the air inlet channel 33 is located between the cleaning chamber 22 and the dust collector 34 in the left-right direction. The air inlet channel 33 can be set as a bent structure, and the air inlet channel 33 can extend in the front-to-back direction. The dust collecting port 31 of the air inlet channel 33 is located at the rear end of the cleaning chamber 22, and the other end of the air inlet channel 33 is connected to the dust collector 34. By extending the air inlet channel roughly in the front-to-back direction, while satisfying the premise of a short air inlet channel length, it is also beneficial to reduce the assembly size of the entire dust collection assembly, thereby increasing the structural size of the entire base.

[0057] In some embodiments, Figure 3As shown, the dust collecting port 31 and the return air port 32 are spaced apart in the left-right direction. The spacing means that the distance between the dust collecting port 31 and the return air port 32 in the left-right direction is greater than a certain value, and the gas enters the cleaning device from the return air port, and then flows to the dust collecting port through the cleaning device. The spacing of the dust collecting port and the return air port is conducive to increasing the path of the airflow in the cleaning device, so as to facilitate the gas to take away the dust in the cleaning device as much as possible, reduce the risk of dust remaining in the cleaning device, and improve the efficiency of the dust collection component in removing dust from the cleaning device.

[0058] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the distance L1 between the dust collecting port 31 and the return air port 32 in the left-right direction is greater than 0.5 times the size L2 of the cleaning chamber 22 in the left-right direction. In the embodiment of the present invention, by limiting the distance between the dust collecting port and the return air port and the size relationship of the cleaning chamber, since the size of the cleaning chamber in the left-right direction roughly matches the size of the cleaning equipment, the size relationship between the dust collecting port, the return air port and the cleaning equipment in the left-right direction can be further limited, which is conducive to extending the path of the airflow in the cleaning equipment, so that the gas can take away the dust in the cleaning equipment as much as possible, so as to improve the dust removal effect of the dust collection component on the cleaning equipment.

[0059] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the dust collecting port 31 and the air return port 32 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the cleaning chamber 22 in the left and right direction. The embodiment of the present invention arranges the dust collecting port and the air return port on opposite sides of the cleaning chamber, which is conducive to allowing the gas to flow from one side of the cleaning device in the left and right direction to the other side in the left and right direction. Under the premise of a certain size of the cleaning chamber, the path of the gas flow in the cleaning chamber is improved, thereby improving the efficiency of the gas in driving the dust in the cleaning device and improving the dust removal effect of the dust collection component.

[0060] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the dust collector 34 includes a dust box 341 and a driving member 342. The dust box 341 is connected to the other end of the air inlet channel 33; wherein, the other end of the air inlet channel 33 represents an end away from the dust collecting port 31, and the dust box 341 is used to collect dust introduced by the air inlet channel 33 and filter the gas introduced by the air inlet channel 33. In some embodiments, the other end of the air inlet channel 33 is connected to the side of the dust box 341, and the side represents the position around the upper and lower directions in the dust box 341. The dust box 341 has two opposite ends in the upper and lower directions. In the embodiment of the present invention, the two ends of the dust box 341 in the upper and lower directions are defined as the top and the bottom, and the corresponding part connecting the top and the bottom is defined as the side of the dust box. In the embodiment of the present invention, by connecting the other end of the air inlet channel 33 to the side of the dust box, compared with the method of connecting the other end of the air inlet channel to the top or the bottom of the dust box, the dust in the gas needs to overcome the gravity to a lesser extent during the flow process, thereby reducing the risk of dust accumulation in the air inlet channel.

[0061] like Figure 4 As shown, one end of the driving member 342 is connected to the dust box 341, and the other end of the driving member 342 is connected to one end of the exhaust channel 35. The driving member 342 is used to guide the airflow from the dust collecting port 31 to the return air port 32. The driving member 342 in the embodiment of the present invention can be used to disturb the flow of gas in the air inlet channel 33 or the exhaust channel 35, so that the gas flows from the air inlet channel 33 to the exhaust channel 35. When the cleaning device is connected to the dust collection component, the driving member can drive the gas between the cleaning device and the dust collection component to achieve internal circulation.

[0062] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the driving member 342 includes a power supply 3421 and a dust collecting motor 3422. The power supply 3421 and the dust collecting box 341 are stacked in the up-down direction. The up-down direction in the embodiment of the present invention can be used to represent the vertical direction in the absolute coordinate system, and the plane formed by the front-back direction and the left-right direction can be used to represent the direction of the horizontal plane in the absolute coordinate system. The power supply 3421 in the embodiment of the present invention can be used to convert the alternating current in the clothing processing device into direct current to supply the dust collecting motor in the base and other components. Figure 4 As shown, one end of the dust collecting motor 3422 in the front-to-back direction is connected to the dust collecting box 341, and the other end of the dust collecting motor 3422 in the front-to-back direction is connected to the exhaust channel 35. In other words, the air intake channel and the exhaust channel are both connected to the opposite sides of the dust collecting motor in the front-to-back direction. The embodiment of the present invention arranges the air intake channel, the air outlet channel and the dust collecting motor in the horizontal direction, which is conducive to reducing the assembly size of the base in the vertical direction, thereby reducing the overall height of the base.

[0063] In some embodiments, the dust box includes a box body, a drawer, and a filter. A first cavity is provided inside the box body, and the first cavity is open at one end in the front-to-back direction; a second cavity is provided inside the drawer, which is connected to the dust collection port and the return air port. The drawer can be arranged in the first cavity in a translational manner along the front-to-back direction. When the drawer is arranged in the first cavity, the drawer can close the opening so that the first cavity and the second cavity form a closed cavity. The filter is arranged in the second cavity, and the filter is used to filter the gas passing through the second cavity and collect the dust passing through the second cavity. The filter is detachably arranged in the second cavity. When the dust in the filter is full, the filter can be removed and replaced with a new filter.

[0064] Of course, in other embodiments, the structure of the dust box includes but is not limited to the above-mentioned one embodiment. For example, the dust box can be connected to the drainage channel of the clothing processing device. The water in the drainage channel flows through the dust box and flushes the dust in the dust box to the drainage port of the clothing processing device, thereby realizing the direct discharge of the dust in the dust box to the outside of the clothing processing device, simplifying the user's operation and improving the user experience.

[0065] like Figure 1 As shown, the base 1 of the embodiment of the present invention further includes a drying component 6. The drying component 6 is arranged outside the cleaning chamber, combined with Figure 3 As shown, the drying component 6 is provided with an air outlet 61 connected to the cleaning chamber 22. The air outlet 61 is used to introduce airflow into the cleaning chamber 22. The airflow is blown into the cleaning chamber 22 through the air outlet 61. The airflow is blown onto the wet mop of the cleaning device 4 parked in the cleaning chamber 22. The airflow takes away the moisture on the mop to dry the mop. Figure 6 As shown, part of the drying assembly 6 is located at one end of the cleaning chamber 22 in the front-to-back direction, and the other part is located at one end of the cleaning chamber 22 in the up-down direction. In the embodiment of the present invention, the drying assembly is distributed at one end of the cleaning chamber in the front-to-back direction and one end in the up-down direction, thereby dispersing the drying assembly in two directions, reducing the size of the drying assembly in one direction, and arranging part of the drying assembly side by side with the cleaning chamber in the front-to-back direction, which is beneficial to reducing the overall height of the base.

[0066] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the cleaning cavity 22 is provided with an opening 221 at one end in the front-to-back direction, and the cleaning cavity 22 at one end in the up-down direction is regarded as the top of the cleaning cavity 22. The drying component 6 is partially arranged at one end in the up-down direction of the cleaning cavity 22, that is, the drying component 6 is partially arranged at the top of the cleaning cavity 22. Another part of the drying component 6 can be arranged at one end of the cleaning cavity 22 on the first side, that is, the drying component 6 can be arranged at the rear end of the cleaning cavity 22. The embodiment of the present invention distributes the drying components around the cleaning cavity, which is conducive to reducing the assembly space of the drying components in one direction, thereby reducing the assembly size of the entire base.

[0067] In some embodiments, the drying assembly 6 includes a fan 62 and a ventilation member 63. The function of the fan 62 is to increase the pressure of the gas by mechanical energy, wherein the fan 62 is arranged at one end of the cleaning chamber 22 in the up-down direction, that is, the fan 62 is arranged at the top of the cleaning chamber 22. Figure 6 As shown, one end of the ventilation member 63 is connected to the fan 62, and the other end of the ventilation member 63 is provided with an air outlet 61 (refer to Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the ventilation member 63 is hollow inside and is arranged at the rear end of the cleaning chamber 22. The ventilation member 63 can be used to guide the airflow generated by the fan 62 and guide the airflow in the fan 62 to the cleaning chamber 22. In the embodiment of the present invention, by arranging the drying assembly in the form of a fan and a ventilation member, the drying assembly does not need to be centrally arranged on one side of the cleaning chamber, and the drying assembly can be distributed on different sides of the cleaning chamber, which is conducive to reducing the overall height of the base and the difficulty of assembling the drying assembly.

[0068] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the size of the fan 62 in the front-to-back direction is greater than the size of the fan 62 in the up-down direction. In the normal use state of the fan, the size of the fan 62 in the vertical direction is greater than the size in the horizontal direction. The fan 62 in the embodiment of the present invention is placed horizontally, that is, the size of the fan 62 in the vertical direction is smaller than the size in the horizontal direction, which is conducive to reducing the space occupied by the fan in the vertical direction and reducing the size of the base in the vertical direction.

[0069] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the extension direction of the ventilation member 63 is parallel to the up-down direction. It should be noted that the extension direction of the ventilation member 63 represents the length direction of the ventilation member 63. By aligning the length direction of the ventilation member with the up-down direction, it is beneficial to reduce the space occupied by the ventilation member in the front-back direction, which is beneficial to improve the compactness of the assembly of the components in the shell, thereby improving the space utilization rate in the shell.

[0070] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, a plurality of ventilation members 63 are provided, and the upper ends of the plurality of ventilation members 63 are connected to the fan 62. That is to say, the airflow generated at the fan 62 will disperse and flow into the plurality of ventilation members 63. The lower ends of the plurality of ventilation members 63 are spaced apart in the left and right directions, and the airflow is blown toward the cleaning chamber from the other ends of the plurality of ventilation members 63, which is beneficial for blowing toward different positions of the cleaning equipment 4, thereby helping to improve the drying efficiency of the cleaning equipment.

[0071] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the ventilation member 63 includes a first ventilation member 631 and a second ventilation member 632. One end of the first ventilation member 631 is connected to the fan 62, and the other end of the first ventilation member 631 is a first air outlet 611. One end of the second ventilation member 632 is connected to the fan 62, and the other end of the second ventilation member 632 is a second air outlet 612. In some embodiments, two mops can be provided in the cleaning device 4, and the two mops are respectively arranged side by side in the left and right directions. Figure 3 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the distance L3 between the first air outlet 611 and the second air outlet 612 in the left-right direction is greater than or equal to the first dimension and less than or equal to the second dimension, the first dimension is 0.2 times the dimension L2 of the cleaning chamber 22 in the left-right direction, and the second dimension is 0.6 times the dimension L2 of the cleaning chamber in the left-right direction. In the embodiment of the present invention, by limiting the distance between the first air outlet and the second air outlet within a certain range, the airflows derived from the first air outlet and the second air outlet can be evenly blown onto the mop of the cleaning device, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning device. In some embodiments, such as Figure 6As shown, the first air outlet 611 and the second air outlet 612 are symmetrically arranged relative to the midline of the cleaning chamber 22 in the left-right direction. The embodiment of the present invention helps to improve the drying efficiency of the airflow on the cleaning equipment in the cleaning chamber by symmetrically arranging the first air outlet and the second air outlet in the left-right direction.

[0072] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the portion of the first ventilation member 631 close to the fan 62 extends in the left-right direction, the portion of the first ventilation member 631 close to the first air outlet 611 extends in the up-down direction, the portion of the second ventilation member 632 close to the fan 62 extends in the left-right direction, and the portion of the second ventilation member 632 close to the second air outlet 612 extends in the up-down direction. In other words, one end of the first ventilation member 631 and the second ventilation member 632 close to the fan 62 is connected to the fan 62, and both extend in the horizontal direction, and the portions of the first ventilation member 631 and the second ventilation member 632 away from the fan 62 are spaced in the left-right direction, and both extend in the up-down direction, which is conducive to spacing the first air outlet 611 and the second air outlet 612 in the second direction and connecting one end of the first ventilation member 631 with one end of the second ventilation member 632, so that the airflow can be dispersed and guided to the bottom of the cleaning chamber, so that the airflow can be evenly dispersed to the positions corresponding to the two mops in the cleaning device, thereby improving the air drying efficiency of the cleaning device.

[0073] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the air outlet 61 is close to the bottom end of the cleaning chamber 22 in the up-down direction. The up-down direction can represent the vertical direction of the base in normal use, so the corresponding Figure 3 The lower end shown indicates the bottom end of the cleaning chamber 22. It should be noted that the term "close" in the embodiment of the present invention means that the distance between the air outlet 61 and the bottom end of the cleaning chamber 22 is less than or equal to 0.4 times the size of the cleaning chamber 22 in the vertical direction. The embodiment of the present invention is conducive to reducing the distance between the air outlet and the mop in the cleaning device by arranging the air outlet close to the bottom end of the cleaning chamber in the vertical direction, and is conducive to the air discharged from the air outlet blowing directly onto the mop, thereby reducing the dissipation of the air flow and improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning device.

[0074] In some embodiments, the drying assembly further includes a heating element. The heating element is disposed in the ventilation element and is used to heat the airflow passing through the ventilation element. The heating element heats the airflow, so that the temperature of the airflow increases. When the high-temperature airflow blows to the mop surface of the cleaning device, the high-temperature airflow conducts heat with the mop, so that the temperature of the mop increases, which accelerates the evaporation of the water in the mop. The water in the mop flows away with the airflow, thereby achieving rapid drying of the mop.

[0075] The embodiment of the present invention also provides a clothes processing device, such as Figure 6As shown, the clothes processing device includes a body 5 and a base 1 as described in any of the above embodiments. The body 5 is used to perform operations such as soaking, washing and drying clothes, and the base 1 is arranged at one end of the body 5 in the up-down direction. The up-down direction represents the vertical direction in the absolute coordinate system, that is, the base 1 is arranged at the bottom of the clothes processing device. When the clothes processing device is placed on the ground, the base 1 is closer to the ground than the body 5, so that the cleaning device can be easily moved into the cleaning chamber 22 through the opening.

[0076] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention.
