Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cleaning equipment technology, and in particular provides a cleaning base station and cleaning equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, cleaning robots are widely used in residences or various public places. To facilitate the cleaning of the wiping parts of the cleaning robot, the cleaning robot is usually used in conjunction with a cleaning base station.

[0003] Traditional cleaning stations typically include a cleaning solution tank and a clean water tank. The cleaning solution in the cleaning solution tank is transferred to the clean water tank, where it mixes with the clean water before being output to clean the wiping parts of the cleaning robot. However, this process can lead to excessive dilution of the cleaning solution, resulting in a decrease in the cleaning effectiveness of the cleaning station. In addition, to facilitate cleaning the cleaning solution tank, it is usually installed in a detachable manner. However, the installation process requires connecting pipes to the cleaning solution tank, making the installation operation quite cumbersome. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cleaning base station and cleaning equipment, which aims to solve the technical problems of poor cleaning effect of existing cleaning base stations and cumbersome installation and operation of the cleaning liquid tank of the cleaning base station.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this embodiment of the invention is: a clean base station, comprising:

The first fluid outlet connector is disposed on the base, and the second fluid outlet connector is disposed on the cleaning fluid container and communicates with it. One end of the sealing sleeve is sealed to one end of the first fluid outlet connector, and the other end of the sealing sleeve can be sealed to one end of the second fluid outlet connector after the cleaning fluid container is installed on the base. One end of the fluid guide pipe is connected to the fluid inlet, and the other end of the fluid guide pipe is connected to the other end of the first fluid outlet connector. The power pump is disposed on the pipeline of the fluid guide pipe to provide power for conveying the cleaning fluid in the cleaning fluid container.

[0008] The cleaning base station provided in this embodiment of the invention has at least the following beneficial effects: Since the cleaning fluid container and the cleaning tank of the base are connected via a liquid guide pipe, the cleaning fluid in the container can directly enter the cleaning tank through the liquid guide pipe under the drive of the power pump. Subsequently, a small amount of clean water can be injected into the cleaning tank to mix the cleaning fluid with the water before it is used to clean the wiping parts of the cleaning robot. This reduces the dilution of the cleaning fluid, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning base station. Simultaneously, after the cleaning fluid container is installed on the base, the second liquid outlet connector on the container can be directly and sealed to the sealing sleeve. This eliminates the need for additional manual pipe connection operations for the cleaning fluid container, thus improving the ease of installation.

[0045] A first aspect of the present invention provides a cleaning base station 100, which can be used in conjunction with a cleaning robot to clean the wiping parts of the cleaning robot.

[0046] Please combine Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the cleaning base station 100 includes a base 110 and a cleaning fluid filling mechanism 120. The base 110 has a cleaning tank 1121 and a fluid inlet 1122, with the fluid inlet 1122 connected to the cleaning tank 1121. The cleaning fluid filling mechanism 120 includes a cleaning fluid container 121, a fluid outlet connection assembly 122, a power pump 123, and a fluid guide pipe 124. The cleaning fluid container 121 is used to hold the cleaning fluid and is detachably mounted on the base 110. The liquid outlet connection assembly 122 includes a first liquid outlet connector 1221, a second liquid outlet connector 1222, and a sealing sleeve 1223. The first liquid outlet connector 1221 is disposed on the base 110, and the second liquid outlet connector 1222 is disposed on the cleaning liquid container 121 and is connected to the cavity of the cleaning liquid container 121. One end of the sealing sleeve 1223 is sealed to one end of the first liquid outlet connector 1221, and the other end of the sealing sleeve 1223 can be sealed to one end of the second liquid outlet connector 1222 after the cleaning liquid container 121 is installed on the base 110. It can be understood that the sealing sleeve 1223 is a flexible tube, such as a rubber tube or a silicone tube. One end of the liquid guide tube 124 is connected to the liquid inlet 1122, and the other end of the liquid guide tube 124 is connected to the other end of the first liquid outlet connector 1221. It can be understood that the end of the sealing sleeve 1223 away from the second liquid outlet connector 1222 is sealed and connected to the liquid inlet end of the first liquid outlet connector 1221, and the end of the liquid guide tube 124 away from the liquid inlet 1122 is connected to the liquid outlet end of the first liquid outlet connector 1221. In other words, the liquid guide tube 124, the first liquid outlet connector 1221, the sealing sleeve 1223, and the second liquid outlet connector 1222 are sequentially connected to form the liquid outlet pipeline of the cleaning fluid filling mechanism 120. A power pump 123 is installed on the pipeline of the liquid guide tube 124 to provide power for conveying the cleaning fluid into the cleaning fluid container 121.

[0047] Specifically, please combine Figure 1As shown, the base 110 includes a main body 111 and a cleaning platform 112. The main body 111 has a stop wall 1112, and the cleaning platform 112 is located in front of the stop wall 1112. When the cleaning robot enters the cleaning platform 112, the cleaning robot faces the stop wall 1112. A cleaning tank 1121 is formed on the cleaning platform 112, and a liquid inlet 1122 can be formed on the cleaning platform 112 or on the main body 111, depending on the location of the cleaning tank 1121. A cleaning fluid filling mechanism 120 is installed on the main body 111.

[0048] Optionally, the power pump 123 is a peristaltic pump. Using a peristaltic pump to deliver the cleaning fluid allows for accurate control of the delivery volume, achieving the purpose of quantitative delivery of the cleaning fluid. Of course, in other embodiments, the power pump 123 may also be a diaphragm pump, a plunger pump, a syringe pump, etc., and no specific limitation is made here.

[0049] Specifically, please combine Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the cleaning fluid filling mechanism 120 also includes a suction tube 126. One end of the suction tube 126 is connected to the end of the second liquid outlet connector 1222 away from the sealing sleeve 1223. It can be understood that the end of the sealing sleeve 1223 away from the first liquid outlet connector 1221 is sealed and connected to the liquid outlet end of the second liquid outlet connector 1222, one end of the suction tube 126 is connected to the liquid inlet end of the second liquid outlet connector 1222, and the other end of the suction tube 126 extends to the bottom of the cleaning fluid container 121.

[0050] The cleaning fluid filling process for the aforementioned cleaning base station 100 is as follows:

[0051] First, the power pump 123 starts working, providing power to deliver the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid container 121. The cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid container 121 is first sucked into the suction pipe 126, and then flows through the second liquid outlet connector 1222, the sealing sleeve 1223, the first liquid outlet connector 1221 and the liquid guide pipe 124 in sequence, and finally enters the cleaning tank 1121 through the liquid inlet 1122.

[0052] Since the cleaning fluid container 121 is connected to the cleaning tank 1121 of the base 110 via the liquid guide pipe 124, the cleaning fluid in the cleaning fluid container 121 can directly enter the cleaning tank 1121 through the liquid guide pipe 124 under the drive of the power pump 123. Then, a small amount of clean water can be injected into the cleaning tank 1121 to mix the cleaning fluid with the water before it is used to clean the wiping parts of the cleaning robot. This reduces the dilution of the cleaning fluid, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning base station 100. Simultaneously, after the cleaning fluid container 121 is installed on the base 110, the second liquid outlet connector 1222 on the cleaning fluid container 121 can be directly and sealed to the sealing sleeve 1223. This eliminates the need for additional manual pipe connection operations for the cleaning fluid container 121, thus improving the ease of installation of the cleaning fluid container 121.

[0053] In one embodiment, please combine Figure 5 As shown, the second liquid outlet connector 1222 includes a connecting plate 12221 and a first connector portion 12222. The connecting plate 12221 is connected to the cleaning liquid container 121. The first connector portion 12222 is connected to the plate surface of the connecting plate 12221 facing the sealing sleeve 1223. The end of the sealing sleeve 1223 away from the first liquid outlet connector 1221 can be fitted onto the first connector portion 12222 and abut against the connecting plate 12221 after the cleaning liquid container 121 is installed on the base 110. After the cleaning liquid container 121 is installed on the base 110, the first connector portion 12222 is inserted into the sealing sleeve 1223, and at the same time, the sealing sleeve 1223 abuts against the connecting plate 12221, thus completing the pipeline connection operation of the cleaning container. The connection process is simple and convenient, effectively improving the ease of installation of the cleaning liquid container 121.

[0054] Specifically, please combine Figure 5 As shown, the cleaning fluid container 121 includes a container body 1211 and a cap 1212. The container body 1211 has a liquid inlet, the cap 1212 covers the liquid inlet, a connecting plate 12221 abuts against the edge of the cap 1212 and the liquid inlet, and a first connector 12222 extends outward from the container body 1211 through the cap 1212. In other embodiments, the connecting plate 12221 may also be disposed on the cap 1212, for example, the connecting plate 12221 and the cap 1212 are integrally formed.

[0055] To further improve the sealing effect between the sealing sleeve 1223 and the first liquid outlet connector 1221, the installation position of the cleaning liquid container 121 can be set as close as possible to the sealing sleeve 1223. In this way, after the cleaning liquid container 121 is installed on the base 110, the sealing sleeve 1223 is squeezed by the connecting plate 12221, so that the sealing sleeve 1223 and the connecting plate 12221 can be more tightly abutted together.

[0056] Specifically, please combine Figure 5 As shown, the second liquid outlet connector 1222 also includes a second connector portion 12223, which is connected to the plate surface of the connecting plate 12221 facing away from the sealing sleeve 1223, and the second connector portion 12223 is connected to one end of the suction tube 126.

[0057] In the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 As shown, the inner wall of the sealing sleeve 1223 is clearance-fitted with the outer peripheral wall of the first connector 12222, so that the first connector 12222 can be inserted into the sealing sleeve 1223 more easily, making the pipeline connection operation of the cleaning fluid container 121 more convenient and further improving the ease of installation of the cleaning fluid container 121.

[0058] In one embodiment, please combine Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the cleaning base station 100 also includes a locking mechanism 140 disposed between the base 110 and the cleaning liquid container 121. It can be understood that at least one locking mechanism 140 is provided on each of the opposite sides of the cleaning liquid container 121, and the cleaning liquid container 121 and the base 110 are detachably connected through the locking mechanism 140.

[0059] In the above embodiments, the locking mechanism 140 includes a first mounting bracket 141, a snap fastener 142, and a first elastic member 143.

[0060] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 8 As shown, the first mounting bracket 141 is mounted on the base 110, the fastener 142 is movably mounted on the first mounting bracket 141, and the first elastic member 143 abuts against the first mounting bracket 141 and the fastener 142. The fastener 142 is used to engage with the cleaning fluid container 121. It is understood that the cleaning fluid container 121 has a first slot, and the fastener 142 engages with the first slot to fix the cleaning fluid container 121 to the base 110.

[0061] In another embodiment, a first mounting bracket 141 is mounted on a cleaning fluid container 121, a snap-fit ​​member 142 is movably mounted on the first mounting bracket 141, and a first elastic member 143 abuts between the first mounting bracket 141 and the snap-fit ​​member 142. The snap-fit ​​member 142 is used to engage with the base 110. It is understood that a second latch is provided on the base 110, and the snap-fit ​​member 142 engages with the second latch to fix the cleaning fluid container 121 to the base 110.

[0062] Taking the embodiment where the fastener 142 is engaged with the cleaning fluid container 121 as an example, during the installation of the cleaning fluid container 121, the cleaning fluid container 121 will squeeze the fastener 142, causing the first elastic member 143 to be compressed. The fastener 142 will retract into the first mounting bracket 141. When the cleaning fluid container 121 reaches the installation position, the fastener 142 will automatically reset under the elastic action of the first elastic member 143, and then be engaged in the first slot of the cleaning fluid container 121 to fix the cleaning fluid container 121 on the base 110.

[0063] Specifically, please combine Figure 8 As shown, a second mounting cavity 1411 is formed inside the first mounting bracket 141, and the fastener 142 is movably installed inside the second mounting cavity 1411. The first elastic member 143 abuts against the cavity wall of the second mounting cavity 1411 and the fastener 142.

[0064] It should be noted that the first elastic element 143 includes, but is not limited to, springs and sheet springs.

[0065] In the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 9 As shown, the fastener 142 has an inlet ramp 1421 and an outlet ramp 1422, with the outlet ramp 1422 having a greater slope than the inlet ramp 1421. It is understood that the inlet ramp 1421 guides the cleaning fluid container 121 into the installation position, and the outlet ramp 1422 guides the cleaning fluid container 121 out of the installation position. When the fastener 142 is used to engage with the cleaning fluid container 121, the inlet ramp 1421 and the outlet ramp 1422 are sequentially distributed along the installation direction of the cleaning fluid container 121. When the fastener 142 is used to engage with the base 110, the outlet ramp 1422 and the inlet ramp 1421 are sequentially distributed along the installation direction of the cleaning fluid container 121.

[0066] By setting the slope of the outgoing slope 1422 to be greater than that of the incoming slope 1421, the force applied when installing the cleaning fluid container 121 is less than the force applied when disassembling the cleaning fluid container 121. This makes it easier to install the cleaning fluid container 121 onto the base 110. Furthermore, after the cleaning fluid container 121 is installed, the fastener 142 can apply a greater resisting force to the cleaning fluid container 121, thereby ensuring that the sealing sleeve 1223 can effectively abut against the second liquid outlet connector 1222, thus improving the sealing effect between the sealing sleeve 1223 and the second liquid outlet connector 1222.

[0067] In one embodiment, please combine Figure 1As shown, a first mounting cavity 1111 is formed in the base 110. The first mounting cavity 1111 has a disassembly port. The cleaning fluid container 121 can be disassembled and installed in the first mounting cavity 1111 through the disassembly port. This can prevent the cleaning fluid container 121 from being exposed and improve the structural compactness of the cleaning base station 100.

[0068] In one embodiment, please combine Figure 2 As shown, the cleaning fluid filling mechanism 120 also includes a one-way valve 125, which is disposed on the pipeline of the fluid guiding pipe 124. The conduction direction of the one-way valve 125 is from the cleaning fluid container 121 to the inlet 1122. By disposing of the one-way valve 125 on the pipeline of the fluid guiding pipe 124, backflow of sewage in the cleaning tank 1121 into the fluid guiding pipe 124 can be prevented.

[0069] Specifically, there are multiple one-way valves 125. Correspondingly, multiple liquid inlets 1122 are provided on the base 110. The liquid guide pipe 124 includes a main pipe and multiple branch pipes. One end of the main pipe is connected to the liquid outlet end of the first liquid outlet connector 1221. The other end of the main pipe is connected to one end of each branch pipe. The end of each branch pipe away from the main pipe is connected to each liquid inlet 1122. Each one-way valve 125 is correspondingly provided on each branch pipe. Optionally, the one-way valve 125 is provided on the end of the branch pipe away from the main pipe.

[0070] In one embodiment, the cleaning liquid container 121 is provided with an air hole (not shown in the figure), and the cavity of the cleaning liquid container 121 is connected to the atmospheric environment through the air hole. This can maintain the internal and external air pressure balance of the cleaning liquid container 121, so as to ensure that the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid container 121 can be effectively transported to the cleaning tank 1121.

[0071] In one embodiment, please combine Figure 4 As shown, a handle 12111 is provided on the cleaning fluid container 121 to facilitate the user's handling of the cleaning fluid container 121.

[0072] In one embodiment, please combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the cleaning station also includes a charging mechanism 130, which is mounted on the base 110. The charging mechanism 130 is used to connect with the charging connector of the cleaning robot to charge the cleaning robot.

[0073] In the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the charging mechanism 130 includes a second mounting bracket 131, an electrode component 132, and a second elastic member 133. The second mounting bracket 131 is mounted on the base 110, and the electrode component 132 is movably mounted on the second mounting bracket 131. Specifically, the electrode component 132 can reciprocate along its length, and the second elastic member 133 abuts against the second mounting bracket 131 and the electrode component 132. After the cleaning robot enters the cleaning base station 100, the charging connector of the cleaning robot abuts against the electrode component 132, causing the second elastic member 133 to be compressed. At this time, the second elastic member 133 applies a restoring force to the electrode component 132, enabling the electrode component 132 to tightly abut against the charging connector of the cleaning robot, thereby ensuring that the electrode component 132 and the charging connector of the cleaning robot maintain good contact.

[0074] Specifically, please combine Figure 11 As shown, a third mounting cavity 1311 is formed inside the second mounting bracket 131. The electrode component 132 is mounted inside the third mounting cavity 1311. The electrode component 132 can reciprocate along its own length direction. The second elastic member 133 abuts against the cavity wall of the third mounting cavity 1311 and the electrode component 132.

[0075] It should be noted that the second elastic element 133 includes, but is not limited to, springs and sheet springs.

[0076] Specifically, please combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the charging mechanism 130 is installed inside the main body 111, and the electrode component 132 extends outward through the stop wall 1112 of the main body 111 so that the electrode component 132 can dock with the charging connector of the cleaning robot.

[0077] In the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 11As shown, the charging mechanism 130 also includes a position detection component 134, which includes a detection element 1341 and a trigger element 1342. The detection element 1341 is disposed on the second mounting bracket 131, and the trigger element 1342 is disposed on the electrode component 132; or, the detection element 1341 is disposed on the electrode component 132, and the trigger element 1342 is disposed on the second mounting bracket 131. After the cleaning robot enters the cleaning base station 100, the charging connector of the cleaning robot abuts against the electrode component 132, causing the detection element 1341 and the trigger 1342 to move relative to each other until the trigger 1342 reaches the trigger position and triggers the detection element 1341. At this time, the detection element 1341 detects that the cleaning robot has reached the preset charging position, and then controls the circuit between the electrode component 132 and the power supply to be connected, thereby charging the cleaning robot. When the cleaning robot leaves the cleaning base station 100, the electrode component 132 is reset under the elastic action of the second elastic member 133. At this time, the detection element 1341 and the trigger 1342 move relative to each other again, the trigger 1342 leaves the trigger position, and the detection element 1341 controls the circuit between the electrode component 132 and the power supply to be disconnected, so as to stop the power output.

[0078] Optionally, the detection element 1341 can be of various types, and correspondingly, the trigger element 1342 can also be of various types. For example, the detection element 1341 can be a Hall sensor and the trigger element 1342 can be a magnet; or the detection element 1341 can be a micro switch and the trigger element 1342 can be a toggle; or the detection element 1341 can be an infrared sensor and the trigger element 1342 can be an infrared transmitter. No specific limitation is made here.

[0079] In one embodiment, please combine Figure 1 As shown, the cleaning base station 100 also includes a guidance mechanism 150, which guides the cleaning robot to a preset position within the cleaning base station 100. Specifically, the guidance mechanism 150 includes a guidance signal transmitter, which is disposed on the stop wall 1112 of the main body 111. Correspondingly, the cleaning robot is provided with a guidance signal receiver. The guidance signal transmitter and the guidance signal receiver cooperate to guide the cleaning robot to the preset position within the cleaning base station 100.

[0080] Optionally, the guide signal transmitter is an infrared transmitter, and the guide signal receiver is an infrared receiver.
