[0002] Floor scrubbers and other cleaning equipment with cleaning functions make it convenient for users to clean floors, carpets, and other surfaces, thus gaining widespread use. However, during the cleaning process, hair can easily become entangled in the roller brushes. If this hair is not cleaned regularly, it will reduce the brush's cleaning ability and may also damage the brushes and motor.
[0003] However, the current method of cleaning roller brushes usually relies on users to manually remove the hair tangled on the roller brush, which requires users to do extra cleaning work; and because the roller brush is contaminated with dirt and bacteria, users directly contact the hair tangled on the roller brush, which poses a serious hygiene problem and will also have a negative impact on the user experience.

[0030] This application provides a cleaning device, a storage device, and a cleaning system, which are described in detail below. It should be noted that the order of description of the following embodiments is not intended to limit the preferred order of the embodiments of this application. Furthermore, in the following embodiments, the descriptions of each embodiment have their own emphasis; parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment can be referred to in the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.
[0031] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an embodiment of the cleaning system of this application.
[0032] In one embodiment, the cleaning system includes a cleaning device 10 and a storage device 20. The cleaning device 10 can be a floor scrubber, a cleaning machine, or other cleaning equipment, such as a carpet cleaner or a fabric cleaner. The storage device 20, as its name suggests, is used in conjunction with the cleaning device 10 to store the cleaning device 10 when it is not performing cleaning work, to charge the cleaning device 10, or for self-cleaning of the cleaning device 10.
[0033] Specifically, the cleaning device 10 includes a first device body 11 and a cleaning roller brush 12. The first device body 11 is the basic carrier of the cleaning device 10, used to support other components of the cleaning device 10. The cleaning roller brush 12 is rotatably mounted on the first device body 11. By driving the cleaning roller brush 12 to rotate around its own central axis, the cleaning roller brush 12 can clean surfaces such as floors, carpets, and sofas.
[0034] Furthermore, please refer to the following: Figure 2 and Figure 3 The cleaning roller brush 12 includes a roller brush body 121 and a cleaning strip 122. The roller brush body 121 is rotatably disposed on the first device body 11, that is, the roller brush body 121 can rotate relative to the first device body 11 about its own central axis. The cleaning strip 122 is disposed on the outer periphery of the roller brush body 121. The cleaning strip 122 can rotate with the roller brush body 121, and when the cleaning strip 122 sweeps over the surface to be cleaned, it can clean the surface to be cleaned.
[0035] Optionally, the cleaning strip 122 includes at least one of the cleaning ridge strip 122a and the cleaning brush strip 122b. Figure 2 and Figure 3 An exemplary illustration shows a cleaning strip 122 comprising cleaning protrusions 122a and cleaning bristles 122b. The cleaning protrusions 122a may be leather-like ribs or similar protrusions on the outer periphery of the roller brush body 121. The cleaning protrusions 122a may extend spirally along the axial direction of the roller brush body 121, and several cleaning protrusions 122a on the roller brush body 121 may be sequentially spaced along the circumference of the roller brush body 121. The cleaning bristles 122b may be bristle bundles protruding from the outer periphery of the roller brush body 121. Several sets of cleaning bristles 122b may be provided on the roller brush body 121, each set of cleaning bristles 122b comprising several cleaning bristles 122b, and the cleaning bristles 122b in each set are spirally distributed along the axial direction of the roller brush body 121.
[0036] The storage device 20 includes a second device body 21. The second device body 21 is the basic carrier of the storage device 20 and is used to support other components of the storage device 20. The second device body 21 has a storage cavity 211 for storing the cleaning device 10. Furthermore, when the cleaning device 10 is stored in the storage cavity 211, at least the cleaning roller brush 12 is stored in the storage cavity 211.
[0037] The storage device 20 in this embodiment is also used to clean the cleaning device 10, which will be described in detail below.
[0038] In one embodiment, the cleaning device 10 further includes a first mating member 13, which is disposed on the first device body 11. The storage device 20 further includes a cleaning member 22 and a second mating member 23. Both the cleaning member 22 and the second mating member 23 are disposed in the storage cavity 211. Of course, the second mating member 23 may also be located outside the storage cavity 211. When the cleaning device 10 is stored in the storage cavity 211, the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 cooperate to cause the cleaning roller brush 12 to abut against the cleaning member 22. The cleaning member 22 is used to clean the tangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12 during its rotation.
[0039] After completing the cleaning of the surface to be cleaned, the cleaning device 10 is stored in the storage cavity 211 of the storage device 20. At this time, the first mating member 13 on the cleaning device 10 can engage with the second mating member 23. When the cleaning device 10 is stored in the storage device 20, the first mating member 13 can automatically engage with the second mating member 23; or when the user needs to clean the cleaning roller brush 12, with the cleaning device 10 stored in the storage device 20, the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 can be actively controlled to engage by means such as power supply as described below. When the first mating member 13 engages with the second mating member 23, the cleaning roller brush 12 can abut against the cleaning member 22 and the two can maintain abutment relationship. In one exemplary embodiment, the cleaning roller brush 12 adopts a floating design, and the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 cooperate to move the cleaning roller brush 12 toward the cleaning member 22 to abut the cleaning member 22. In another exemplary embodiment, the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 cooperate to move the entire cleaning device 10 toward the cleaning member 22, so that the cleaning roller brush 12 moves to abut the cleaning member 22, thereby avoiding the problems of complex structure and high design requirements caused by the floating design of the cleaning roller brush 12.
[0040] During the cleaning process of the cleaning device 10, the cleaning roller brush 12 is prone to getting tangled with long, thin objects such as human or animal hair, fibers, and thread. When it is necessary to clean the cleaning roller brush 12, for example, to remove the tangled objects, the cleaning roller brush 12 is in a rotating state (e.g., it can be actively driven to rotate). Since the cleaning member 22 and the cleaning roller brush 12 interfere with each other through contact, during the rotation of the cleaning roller brush 12, the cleaning member 22 squeezes, rubs, pulls, and cuts the tangled objects on the cleaning roller brush 12, causing the tangled objects on the cleaning roller brush 12 to break off and detach from the cleaning roller brush 12, thus achieving the cleaning effect.
[0041] In this way, the present embodiment can automatically clean the tangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12, saving the user the burden of extra cleaning work, and also avoids the user from directly contacting the tangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12. This not only avoids hygiene problems, but also helps to improve the user experience.
[0042] It should be noted that, since the material wrapped around the cleaning roller brush 12 is mainly wrapped around the cleaning protrusions 122a of the cleaning roller brush 12, the specific way the cleaning roller brush 12 abuts against the cleaning member 22 in this embodiment is: as the roller brush body 121 rotates, the end of the cleaning protrusion 122a away from the roller brush body 121 has a target movement trajectory (such as...). Figure 2 As shown in P), at least a portion of the cleaning component 22 is located in the area defined by the target movement trajectory, so that the cleaning component 22 can abut against the cleaning protrusion 122a of the cleaning roller brush 12 and cause interference; the cleaning component 22 causes the entanglement on the cleaning protrusion 122a to break off and detach from the cleaning roller brush 12 by squeezing, rubbing, pulling and cutting, thereby achieving the cleaning effect.
[0043] In one embodiment, both the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 are magnetic components. The first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 are attracted to each other to engage, causing the cleaning roller brush 12 to abut against the cleaning member 22. During the storage process of the cleaning device 10, when the cleaning device 10 and the storage device 20 are close to each other, the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 can attract each other and adhere together, causing the cleaning roller brush 12 to abut against the cleaning member 22.
[0044] Specifically, one of the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 is an electromagnet, and the other is a magnetizable component. When the electromagnet is energized, it generates a magnetic field to magnetize the magnetizable component, causing the electromagnet and the magnetizable component to attract each other. That is, the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 engage through mutual attraction. For example, the first mating member 13 is an electromagnet, and the second mating member 23 is a magnetizable component (e.g., an iron block). After the cleaning device 10 is housed in the storage cavity 211 of the storage device 20, the first mating member 13 is energized, causing the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 to attract each other, thereby causing the cleaning roller brush 12 to come into contact with the cleaning member 22.
[0045] Of course, in other embodiments of this application, one of the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 may be an electromagnet, and the other may be a magnetic component. When the electromagnet is energized and generates a magnetic field, the electromagnet and the magnetic component attract each other. Alternatively, both the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 may be magnetic components, and the magnetism of the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 may attract each other. This is not limited here.
[0046] In one embodiment, the cleaning device 10 further includes a combing member 14, which is disposed on the first device body 11. When the cleaning device 10 is housed in the storage cavity 211, the combing member 14 and the cleaning member 22 are distributed sequentially at intervals along the circumference of the cleaning roller brush 12, and the cleaning member 22 is used to clean the tangled material after being combed by the combing member 14.
[0047] During the cleaning process of the cleaning device 10, the combing member 14 combs the tangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12 to facilitate subsequent cleaning by the cleaning member 22. After the cleaning device 10 is housed in the receiving cavity 211, the cleaning member 22 cleans the tangled material that has been combed by the combing member 14. In this embodiment, the combing member 14 combs the tangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12 before the cleaning member 22 cleans it, ensuring that the tangled material is as evenly wrapped around the cleaning roller brush 12 as possible, facilitating subsequent cleaning by the cleaning member 22 and improving the cleaning efficiency of the tangled material. It should be noted that while the cleaning member 22 is cleaning the tangled material, the combing member 14 simultaneously combs any remaining tangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12 to ensure efficient cleaning of the tangled material.
[0048] Furthermore, the cleaning roller brush 12 has a cleaning area 123, and the cleaning strip 122 can rotate with the roller brush body 121 to the cleaning area 123 to clean the surface to be cleaned. Specifically, the bottom area of the surface to be cleaned is divided into the cleaning area 123. The combing member 14 is close to the cleaning area 123, and the cleaning strip 122 in the cleaning area 123 rotates toward the combing member 14. The cleaning strip 122 rotates with the roller brush body 121 to the cleaning area 123 to clean the surface to be cleaned. At this time, slender objects on the surface to be cleaned will wrap around the cleaning roller brush 12. Then, the cleaning strip 122 rotates further with the roller brush body 121, and the cleaning strip 122 rotates from the cleaning area 123 toward the combing member 14. In this way, the wrapped material that has just wrapped around the cleaning roller brush 12 can be combed by the combing member 14, which facilitates the subsequent cleaning of the wrapped material on the cleaning roller brush 12 by the cleaning member 22.
[0049] For example, when the cleaning device 10 is housed in the storage cavity 211, the cleaning member 22 is located on the side of the cleaning roller brush 12 closer to the first mating member 13, and the combing member 14 is located on the side of the cleaning roller brush 12 away from the first mating member 13. Figure 2 As shown, the cleaning roller brush 12 rotates counterclockwise. The cleaning strip 122 at the bottom of the cleaning roller brush 12 (i.e., the cleaning zone 123) first passes through the combing member 14, causing the tangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12 to be combed by the combing member 14. Then, the cleaning strip 122 rotates further to the cleaning member 22, where the tangled material is combed by the combing member 14 and then cleaned by the cleaning member 22. Subsequently, the rotating cleaning roller brush 12 pushes the dirt towards the recovery member 152, which is described below, making it easier for the recovery member 152 to collect the cleaned tangled material.
[0050] Furthermore, please refer to the following: Figure 4 The combing member 14 has at least two comb teeth 141, which are distributed sequentially at intervals along the axial direction of the cleaning roller brush 12. There is a gap 142 between two adjacent comb teeth 141. When the tangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12 passes through the combing member 14, the tangled material will be combed into the gap 142, so that the tangled material passing through the combing member 14 is wrapped around the cleaning roller brush 12 as evenly as possible, which facilitates subsequent cleaning by the cleaning member 22.
[0051] In one embodiment, the first device body 11 has a brush cavity 111 for accommodating the cleaning brush 12. The cleaning device 10 further includes a liquid injection component 151 disposed in the first device body 11. The liquid injection component 151 is used to inject cleaning liquid into the cleaning brush 12 or the receiving cavity 211, so that the cleaning brush 12, by rotating, drives the cleaning liquid in the receiving cavity 211 to clean the brush cavity 111.
[0052] Optionally, the liquid injection component 151 can be connected to a cleaning liquid source inside the cleaning device 10. The cleaning liquid can be clean water, or a mixture of cleaning agent and clean water, etc., and is not limited thereto.
[0053] In one embodiment, the cleaning device 10 further includes a recovery component 152. The recovery component 152 is disposed in the first device body 11. The receiving cavity 211 is also used to hold cleaning fluid. The cleaning roller brush 12 rotates to drive the cleaning fluid in the receiving cavity 211 to clean the roller brush cavity 111. After the roller brush cavity 111 is cleaned, the dirty cleaning fluid in the receiving cavity 211 is recovered through the recovery component 152.
[0054] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the end of the recovery member 152 has a suction nozzle, through which the dirty cleaning liquid in the collection cavity 211 is recovered into the recovery member 152. The interior of the recovery member 152 has a conduit in fluid communication with the dirt storage member of the cleaning device 10, which extends from the bottom to the top of the cleaning device 10 along the circumference of the cleaning roller brush 12.
[0055] In one embodiment, the cleaning device 10 and / or the storage device 20 further includes a first elastic member 24. After the engagement between the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 is disengaged, the first elastic member 24 can respond to its own elastic restoring force to move the cleaning roller brush 12 away from the cleaning member 22. In this way, during the cleaning of the roller brush cavity 111, interference between the cleaning roller brush 12 and the cleaning member 22 can be avoided to prevent noise, and the cleaning member 22 can be kept in contact with the cleaning roller brush 12 for a long time, which would affect the service life of the cleaning roller brush 12.
[0056] For example, please refer to the following: Figure 5 The first elastic member 24 is disposed in the storage cavity 211 of the storage device 20, and the first elastic member 24 is far away from the second mating member 23 relative to the cleaning member 22. Figure 5Exemplarily shown is a configuration of two first elastic members 24, which are spaced apart from each other at the edge of the receiving cavity 211 along the extending direction of the cleaning member 22. Of course, in other embodiments of this application, the receiving device 20 provides a bearing surface for supporting the cleaning device 10, which is floatingly disposed by means of elastic members or the like. When the cleaning device 10 is placed on the bearing surface of the receiving device 20 and the electromagnets in the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 are not energized, the bearing surface is in a first position. When the electromagnets in the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 are energized, the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 attract each other, and the attraction force between them is greater than the elastic restoring force provided by the elastic member, causing at least a portion of the bearing surface to move to a second position lower than the first position (during this process, the cleaning member 22 does not move downward synchronously with the bearing surface), allowing the cleaning roller brush 12 to abut against the cleaning member 22.
[0057] It should be noted that, in the preferred embodiment of this application, cleaning fluid is injected into the receiving cavity 211 through the injection component 151, and the dirty cleaning fluid in the receiving cavity 211 is recovered through the recovery component 152. Of course, in other embodiments of this application, when cleaning fluid is injected into the receiving cavity 211 through the injection component 151, the dirty cleaning fluid in the receiving cavity 211 can then be cleaned by the user; and when the dirty cleaning fluid in the receiving cavity 211 is recovered through the recovery component 152, the user can also inject cleaning fluid into the receiving cavity 211, and there is no limitation here.
[0058] For example, when the first mating member 13 mates with the second mating member 23, the cleaning device 10 and the receiving device 20 work together to compress the first elastic member 24, such as... Figure 1 As shown. When cleaning of the roller brush chamber 111 is required, the engagement between the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 is disengaged, for example, by de-energizing the first mating member 13. At this time, the first elastic member 24 can lift the cleaning device 10 in response to its own elastic restoring force, so that the cleaning roller brush 12 and the cleaning member 22 move away from each other. Then, the cleaning fluid is injected into the receiving chamber 211 through the injection member 151. When the level of the cleaning fluid in the receiving chamber 211 is at least above the bottom of the cleaning roller brush 12, the cleaning roller brush 12 is controlled to rotate. The rotation of the cleaning roller brush 12 generates centrifugal force to carry the cleaning fluid, thereby cleaning the roller brush chamber 111. After the roller brush chamber 111 is cleaned, the cleaning roller brush 12 is controlled to stop rotating, and the dirty cleaning fluid in the receiving chamber 211 is recovered through the recovery member 152.
[0059] Optionally, the first elastic component 24 may be a component with elastic deformation capability, such as a spring, and is not limited here.
[0060] It should be noted that the embodiments in this application use a carpet cleaning machine as an example to illustrate the cleaning device 10, which is only for the purpose of discussion and is not intended to limit the scope of the application. Please refer to the following documents as well. Figure 1a The first main body 11 of the cleaning device 10 includes a main unit 16 and a floor brush 17. A cleaning roller brush 12 is specifically disposed on the floor brush 17. The user holds the main unit 16 to push the floor brush 17 across the carpet, allowing the floor brush 17 to clean the carpet area it passes over. At least a portion of a recovery member 152 is disposed on the floor brush 17, with the suction nozzle at the end of the recovery member 152 located in front of the cleaning roller brush 12. The cleaning device 10 cleans the carpet using the cleaning roller brush 12, and the main motor of the cleaning device 10 generates negative pressure to recover dirt from the carpet through the suction nozzle at the end of the recovery member 152, thus achieving the purpose of cleaning the carpet.
[0061] Please refer to the following: Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of another embodiment of the cleaning system of this application.
[0062] In an alternative embodiment, the difference between this embodiment and the above embodiment is that the cleaning of the entangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12 and the cleaning of the roller brush cavity 111 (the cleaning of the roller brush cavity 111 includes the self-cleaning of the cleaning roller brush 12) are performed simultaneously. Specifically, when the cleaning device 10 is housed in the housing cavity 211 of the housing device 20, the cleaning roller brush 12 presses against the cleaning member 22 under the gravity of the cleaning device 10, that is, the cleaning roller brush 12 abuts against the cleaning member 22. Furthermore, the cleaning fluid is injected into the receiving cavity 211 through the injection component 151. When the level of the cleaning fluid in the receiving cavity 211 is at least above the bottom of the cleaning roller brush 12, the cleaning roller brush 12 is controlled to rotate. The cleaning roller brush 12 carries the cleaning fluid to clean the roller brush cavity 111. At the same time, the cleaning component 22 squeezes, rubs, pulls, and cuts the wrapped material on the cleaning roller brush 12, causing the wrapped material on the cleaning roller brush 12 to break off and detach from the cleaning roller brush 12. The material is then collected with the dirty cleaning fluid through the recycling component 152 and returned to the dirt storage component of the cleaning device 10, thus achieving the cleaning effect.
[0063] Furthermore, the storage device 20 also includes a second elastic member 25. The cleaning member 22 is connected to the second device body 21 via the second elastic member 25. The second elastic member 25 is able to maintain the cleaning member 22 in contact with the cleaning roller brush 12 in response to its own elastic restoring force. When the cleaning roller brush 12 presses against the cleaning member 22, the second elastic member 25 is compressed in response to the pressure of the cleaning roller brush 12, while the second elastic member 25 maintains the cleaning member 22 in contact with the cleaning roller brush 12 in response to its own elastic restoring force. The second elastic member 25 can compensate for the contact gap between the cleaning roller brush 12 and the cleaning member 22 to prevent the cleaning roller brush 12 from becoming less in contact with the cleaning member 22 due to wear, reduced diameter, or other reasons, thus affecting the cleaning effect.
[0064] Optionally, the second elastic member 25 can be a spring or other component with elastic deformation capability, which is not limited here. Of course, in the above embodiment, where the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 cooperate to make the cleaning roller brush 12 abut against the cleaning member 22, the cleaning member 22 can also be connected to the second device body 21 through the second elastic member 25, which is not limited here.
[0065] In one embodiment, the cleaning device 10 includes a first device body 11, a cleaning roller brush 12, and a first mating member 13. The cleaning roller brush 12 is rotatably disposed on the first device body 11. The first mating member 13 is disposed on the first device body 11. When the cleaning device 10 is housed in the housing device 20, the first mating member 13 cooperates with the housing device 20 such that the cleaning roller brush 12 abuts against the cleaning member 22 on the housing device 20, so as to clean the tangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12 during its rotation.
[0066] It should be noted that the cleaning device 10 has been described in detail in the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.
[0067] In one embodiment, the storage device 20 includes a second device body 21, a cleaning member 22, and a second mating member 23. The second device body 21 has a storage cavity 211 for storing the cleaning device 10. The cleaning member 22 is disposed in the storage cavity 211. The second mating member 23 is disposed in the storage cavity 211. When the cleaning device 10 is stored in the storage cavity 211, the second mating member 23 cooperates with the cleaning device 10 such that the cleaning roller brush 12 on the cleaning device 10 abuts against the cleaning member 22, so as to clean the tangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12 during the rotation of the cleaning roller brush 12.
[0068] It should be noted that the storage device 20 has been described in detail in the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.
[0069] In one embodiment, the cleaning system includes a cleaning device 10 and a storage device 20. The cleaning device 10 includes a first device body 11, a cleaning roller brush 12, and a combing member 14. The cleaning roller brush 12 is rotatably disposed on the first device body 11. The combing member 14 is disposed on the first device body 11 and is used to comb out tangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12 during rotation. The storage device 20 includes a second device body 21 and a cleaning member 22. The second device body 21 has a storage cavity 211 for storing the cleaning device 10. The cleaning member 22 is disposed in the storage cavity 211 and is used to clean out tangled material combed by the combing member 14 during rotation of the cleaning roller brush 12.
[0070] It should be noted that the cleaning device 10 and the storage device 20 have been described in detail in the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.
[0071] In one embodiment, the cleaning system includes a cleaning device 10 and a storage device 20. The cleaning device 10 includes a first device body 11. The cleaning device 10 also includes a cleaning roller brush 12, which is rotatably disposed on the first device body 11. The storage device 20 includes a second device body 21, which has a storage cavity 211 for storing the cleaning device 10. The storage device 20 also includes a cleaning member 22, which is disposed in the storage cavity 211. When the cleaning device 10 is stored in the storage cavity 211, the cleaning device 10 has a first storage position and a second storage position; in the first storage position, the cleaning roller brush 12 contacts the cleaning member 22; in the second storage position, the cleaning roller brush 12 disengages from the cleaning member 22.
[0072] Specifically, the cleaning device 10 is housed in the storage cavity 211 of the storage device 20, and the electromagnets in the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 are not energized. The cleaning device 10 is in the second storage position, and the cleaning roller brush 12 is detached from the cleaning member 22. When the electromagnets in the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 are energized, the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 attract each other, and the cleaning device 10 moves from the second storage position to the first storage position. At this time, the cleaning roller brush 12 comes into contact with the cleaning member 22, that is, the cleaning roller brush 12 can abut against the cleaning member 22.
[0073] It should be noted that the cleaning device 10 and the storage device 20 have been described in detail in the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.
[0074] The technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application will be described below in conjunction with specific application scenarios.
[0075] Application Scenario 1:
[0076] like Figure 1 As shown, the cleaning system includes a cleaning device 10 and a matching storage device 20. The cleaning device 10 can specifically be a carpet cleaner. The cleaning device 10 includes a first device body 11, a cleaning roller brush 12, and a first mating member 13. The cleaning roller brush 12 is rotatably mounted on the first device body 11, and the first mating member 13 is mounted on the first device body 11. The storage device 20 includes a second device body 21, a cleaning member 22, and a second mating member 23. The second device body 21 has a storage cavity 211 for storing the cleaning device 10, with the cleaning member 22 and the second mating member 23 both located within the storage cavity 211.
[0077] After the cleaning device 10 completes its cleaning work, it is stored in the storage cavity 211. When the cleaning roller brush 12 needs to be cleaned, the first mating member 13 is energized to generate a magnetic field, causing the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 to attract each other, thereby causing the cleaning roller brush 12 to come into contact with the cleaning member 22. At this time, the cleaning device 10 compresses the first elastic member 24 in the storage cavity 211 in response to the attraction between the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23. Then, the cleaning roller brush 12 is controlled to rotate, and the cleaning member 22 squeezes, rubs, pulls, and cuts the entangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12, causing the entangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12 to break and detach from the cleaning roller brush 12, achieving the cleaning effect. Then, the cleaning roller brush 12 is controlled to stop rotating.
[0078] Next, the roller brush chamber 111 is cleaned. The first mating component 13 is de-energized, and the magnetic attraction between the first mating component 13 and the second mating component 23 disappears. At this time, the first elastic component 24 can lift the cleaning device 10 in response to its own elastic restoring force, causing the cleaning roller brush 12 and the cleaning component 22 to move away from each other. Then, cleaning fluid is injected into the receiving chamber 211 through the injection component 151. When the level of cleaning fluid in the receiving chamber 211 is at least above the bottom of the cleaning roller brush 12, the cleaning roller brush 12 is controlled to rotate. The rotation of the cleaning roller brush 12 generates centrifugal force to lift the cleaning fluid, thereby cleaning the cleaning roller brush 12 and the roller brush chamber 111. After cleaning is completed, the cleaning roller brush 12 is controlled to stop rotating. The main motor of the cleaning device 10 generates negative pressure, simultaneously recovering the dirty cleaning fluid and the cleaned-up tangled material in the receiving chamber 211 through the recovery component 152.
[0079] Application Scenario 2:
[0080] like Figure 1 As shown, the cleaning system includes a cleaning device 10 and a matching storage device 20. The cleaning device 10 can specifically be a carpet cleaner. The cleaning device 10 includes a first device body 11, a cleaning roller brush 12, and a first mating member 13. The cleaning roller brush 12 is rotatably mounted on the first device body 11, and the first mating member 13 is mounted on the first device body 11. The storage device 20 includes a second device body 21, a cleaning member 22, and a second mating member 23. The second device body 21 has a storage cavity 211 for storing the cleaning device 10, with the cleaning member 22 and the second mating member 23 both located within the storage cavity 211.
[0081] After the cleaning device 10 completes its cleaning work, it is stored in the storage cavity 211. When the cleaning roller brush 12 needs to be cleaned, the first mating member 13 is energized to generate a magnetic field, causing the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23 to attract each other, thereby causing the cleaning roller brush 12 to come into contact with the cleaning member 22. At this time, the cleaning device 10 compresses the first elastic member 24 in the storage cavity 211 in response to the attraction between the first mating member 13 and the second mating member 23. Then, the cleaning roller brush 12 is rotated, and the cleaning member 22 squeezes, rubs, pulls, and cuts the entangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12, causing the entangled material on the cleaning roller brush 12 to break and detach from the cleaning roller brush 12, achieving the cleaning effect. Then, the cleaning roller brush 12 is stopped rotating. The entangled material that has been cleaned is temporarily stored in the storage cavity 211. Next, the main motor of the cleaning device 10 generates negative pressure to collect the entangled material that has been cleaned in the storage cavity 211 through the recycling member 152.
[0082] Application Scenario 3:
[0083] like Figure 5 As shown, the cleaning system includes a cleaning device 10 and a matching storage device 20. The cleaning device 10 can specifically be a carpet cleaner. The cleaning device 10 includes a first device body 11 and a cleaning roller brush 12. The cleaning roller brush 12 is rotatably mounted on the first device body 11. The storage device 20 includes a second device body 21 and a cleaning component 22. The second device body 21 has a storage cavity 211 for storing the cleaning device 10, and the cleaning component 22 is connected to the second device body 21 via a second elastic member 25.
[0084] When the cleaning device 10 is housed in the storage cavity 211 of the storage device 20, the cleaning roller brush 12 presses against the cleaning member 22 under the gravity of the cleaning device 10, that is, the cleaning roller brush 12 abuts against the cleaning member 22. At this time, in response to the pressure of the cleaning roller brush 12, the second elastic member 25 is compressed, and at the same time, the second elastic member 25 responds to its own elastic restoring force to keep the cleaning member 22 abutting against the cleaning roller brush 12. Furthermore, the cleaning liquid is injected into the storage cavity 211 through the injection member 151. When the level of the cleaning liquid in the storage cavity 211 is at least above the bottom of the cleaning roller brush 12, the cleaning roller brush 12 is controlled to rotate. The cleaning roller brush 12 carries the cleaning liquid to clean the cleaning roller brush 12 and the roller brush cavity 111. At the same time, the cleaning member 22 squeezes, rubs, pulls, and cuts the wrapped material on the cleaning roller brush 12, causing the wrapped material on the cleaning roller brush 12 to break and detach from the cleaning roller brush 12, thereby achieving the cleaning effect.
[0085] The cleaning device, storage device, and cleaning system provided in this application have been described in detail above. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this application. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand the methods and core ideas of this application. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this application. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
