[0061] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0062] In practicing the embodiments of this application, the inventors discovered that when adding disinfectant to the solution tank of a traditional cleaning machine, the user needs to add it manually when changing the water. Manually adding disinfectant not only results in a poor user experience, but also makes it easy for liquid disinfectant to spill, posing a safety hazard.

[0063] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a cleaning device, solution tank, and electrolysis module that solve these problems, avoiding the need for users to manually add disinfectant.

[0064] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0065] Figure 1 This is a side cross-sectional structural diagram of a cleaning device provided in an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown.

[0066] In one embodiment of this application, a cleaning device 300 is provided, comprising: a solution tank 200.

[0067] Among them, see Figures 2 to 4 The solution tank 200 includes an electrolysis module 100 and a tank body 40.

[0068] Combination Figure 4 See Figures 5 to 7 The electrolysis module 100 includes a module support 10, a first electrode 20, and a second electrode 21. The module support 10 has two contact portions 11 and an electrolysis chamber 12, within which a support platform 13 is provided. The first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 are respectively disposed on the support platform 13 and are respectively connected to two conductive elements 22, which are coupled to the two contact portions 11. For ease of understanding, the conductive element 22 connected to the first electrode 20 can be referred to as conductive element 22a, and the conductive element 22 connected to the second electrode 21 can be referred to as conductive element 22b.

[0069] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 The barrel body 40 has a solution chamber 41, and barrel conductive elements 50 are respectively provided on the barrel body 40 at positions corresponding to the two contact portions 11. The electrolysis module 100 is located inside the barrel body 40 and connected to the barrel body 40. At least the electrolysis chamber 12 is connected to the solution chamber 41, and the two conductive elements 22 are respectively coupled to the barrel conductive elements 50 at corresponding positions.

[0070] The module bracket 10 provides support for the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 via the support platform 13. In some feasible embodiments, the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 are detachably connected to the support platform 13 for easy assembly and disassembly. The module bracket 10 is detachably connected above the tank body 40 for easy cleaning and maintenance of the electrolysis module 100. Two contact portions 11 can be coupled to the tank conductive components 50 on the tank body 40, thereby achieving electrical connection between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 and external equipment through the two conductive elements 22 and the corresponding tank conductive components 50. When the water in the tank body 40 submerges the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, the different polarities of the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 are energized, electrolyzing the water into an active oxygen aqueous solution formed by hydrogen ions and hydroxyl radicals with bactericidal properties, thus achieving a bactericidal effect without requiring manual addition of disinfectant, improving safety.

[0071] Simultaneously, the conduction of the electrolysis module 100 can be used to detect whether there is water in the solution tank 200, thus preventing abnormal water output. If there is no current between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, it can be determined that there is no water in the solution tank 200, forming an open circuit. The cleaning equipment 300 can then be stopped, and the user will be notified that there is no water in the solution tank 200.

[0072] Furthermore, the electrolysis module 100 in this embodiment can be applied not only to the cleaning equipment 300, but also to various other container electrolysis solutions. Combined with... Figure 1 See Figure 8 and Figure 9 The solution tank 200 is installed on the cleaning equipment 300. One implementation of the cleaning equipment 300 includes a body assembly 60. The body assembly 60 has a body conductive element 70 positioned corresponding to the two tank conductive elements 50. The solution tank 200 is mounted on the body assembly 60, and the two body conductive elements 70 are coupled to the corresponding tank conductive elements 50. The body conductive elements 70 are connected to the main control system within the body assembly 60. When the body conductive elements 70, tank conductive elements 50, and conductive elements 22 are connected, both the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 are connected to the main control system within the body assembly 60. The main control system can supply power to the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, energizing them and electrolyzing the water in the solution tank 200 to form oxygenated water with sterilization properties. Simultaneously, the main control system can detect whether there is a connection and current between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, thereby determining whether there is water in the solution tank 200.

[0073] The technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below.

[0074] See Figure 6and Figure 7 In this embodiment, one possible implementation of the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 is that both the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 are sheet-like structures stacked together, with an insulating pad 23 between them. Liquid passage holes are provided at corresponding positions on the first electrode 20, the second electrode 21, and the insulating pad 23. The insulating pad 23 isolates the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, creating an open circuit between them in the absence of water. Water can pass through the liquid passage holes to immerse the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, thereby connecting them. The sheet-like first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 can be laid on the support platform 13, increasing the contact area between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 and the water, thus improving electrolysis efficiency. Furthermore, the support platform 13 also has liquid passage holes, allowing the entire electrolysis module 100 to be immersed in the liquid, ensuring more thorough contact between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 and the water.

[0075] One way to connect the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 to the support platform 13 is as follows: (See below) Figure 6 The support platform 13 is provided with a first connecting hole and a second connecting hole. A first supporting protrusion 131 is provided around the outer periphery of the first connecting hole, and a second supporting protrusion 132 is provided around the outer periphery of the second connecting hole. The first electrode 20 is provided with a sleeve hole and a first through hole. The first electrode 20 abuts against the first supporting protrusion 131 and is sleeved onto the outside of the second supporting protrusion 132 through the sleeve hole. A first conductive fastener 24 passes through the first through hole and connects to the first connecting hole to fix the first electrode 20. The second electrode 21 is provided with a clearance hole and a second through hole. The second electrode 21 abuts against the second supporting protrusion 132, avoids the first conductive fastener 24 through the clearance hole, and is connected to the second connecting hole through the second through hole to fix the second electrode 21.

[0076] The first support protrusion 131 and the second support protrusion 132 can raise the positions of the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, creating a certain gap between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 and the support platform 13. Water can then seep into this gap, allowing for more thorough contact between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 and the water, thus improving electrolysis efficiency. The first conductive fastener 24 contacts the first electrode 20, and the conductive element 22 can be connected to the first electrode 20. In this case, the first conductive fastener 24 only serves a connecting function. When the conductive element 22 is connected to the first conductive fastener 24, in addition to its connecting function, the first conductive fastener 24 also facilitates conductivity between the conductive element 22 and the first electrode 20.

[0077] Correspondingly, the second conductive fastener 25 contacts the second electrode 21, and the conductive element 22 can be connected to the second electrode 21. At this time, the second conductive fastener 25 only serves as a connector. When the conductive element 22 is connected to the second conductive fastener 25, the second conductive fastener 25, in addition to its connecting function, also serves as a conductor between the conductive element 22 and the second electrode 21. To prevent the first conductive fastener 24 from contacting the second electrode 21, the insulating pad 23, in conjunction with the clearance hole, can cover the first conductive fastener 24, thereby insulating and isolating the first conductive fastener 24 from the second electrode 21.

[0078] Furthermore, both conductive elements 22 are located on the side of the support platform 13 facing away from the first electrode 20. Figure 6 Taking the central position as an example, the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 are both set on the upward side of the support platform 13, and the two conductive elements 22 can both be set on the downward side of the support platform 13, so as to make reasonable use of space and facilitate the connection between the components.

[0079] The conductive element 22 can be connected to the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 in various ways. One possible method is that both the first conductive fastener 24 and the second conductive fastener 25 pass through the support platform 13 and are connected to the two conductive elements 22 respectively. The first conductive fastener 24 contacts the first electrode 20 and is simultaneously connected to the conductive element 22, thus providing conductivity between the conductive element 22 and the first electrode 20. Furthermore, the first conductive fastener 24 is shared between the conductive element 22 and the first electrode 20, eliminating the need for additional fasteners and saving costs. Similarly, the second conductive fastener 25 contacts the second electrode 21 and is simultaneously connected to the conductive element 22, thus providing conductivity between the conductive element 22 and the second electrode 21. Again, the second conductive fastener 25 is shared between the conductive element 22 and the second electrode 21, eliminating the need for additional fasteners and saving costs.

[0080] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of this application, the conductive element 22 and the conductive fastener can be implemented in various ways according to different needs. See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 One possible implementation of the conductive element 22 is a metal sheet. Depending on the implementation method of the conductive element 22, the implementation method of the conductive fastener also varies, as shown in [reference needed]. Figure 6The first conductive fastener 24 includes a first conductive screw 241 and a first nut 242, with the first nut 242 connecting the conductive element 22 to the first conductive screw 241. The conductive element 22 has a hole, allowing it to be fitted onto the first conductive screw 241 and contact it, thereby achieving conductivity. The first nut 242 can be made of a conductive material or a non-conductive material. Correspondingly, the second conductive fastener 25 has a similar structure to the first conductive fastener 24, including a second conductive screw 251 and a second nut 252, with the second nut 252 connecting the conductive element 22 to the second conductive screw 251.

[0081] Further, see Figure 10 and Figure 11 Another possible implementation of the conductive element 22 is a metal screw. Based on this implementation, the first conductive fastener 24 includes a first conductive screw 241 and a first double-ended nut 243, which is connected to both the first conductive screw 241 and the conductive element 22. The first double-ended nut 243 can be made of a conductive material. After the conductive element 22 is connected to the first double-ended nut 243, it contacts the first conductive screw 241, thereby achieving conductivity. Correspondingly, the second conductive fastener 25 has a similar structure to the first conductive fastener 24, including a second conductive screw 251 and a second double-ended nut 253, which is connected to both the second conductive screw 251 and the conductive element 22. Of course, when the conductive element 22 is a metal sheet, it can also be fixed to the first conductive screw 241 using a double-ended nut.

[0082] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 The module support 10 also includes a side plate 14, which, together with the support platform 13, forms an electrolysis chamber 12. The support platform 13 is located inside the electrolysis chamber 12 and connected to the side plate 14. The side plate 14 allows the module support 10 to have a certain height, thus enabling the contact portion 11 to be positioned at different locations according to different needs, to suit different application scenarios. Simultaneously, the side plate 14 also raises the height of the support platform 13, making it easier for the liquid to immerse the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21.

[0083] See Figure 5 and Figure 6 Positioning parts 15 are respectively provided at opposite ends of the side plate 14. The positioning parts 15 facilitate the installation of the module bracket 10. For example, the positioning part 15 can be a tubular structure, and a columnar structure that matches the positioning part 15 is provided at a corresponding position on the barrel body 40. The positioning part 15 can be sleeved on the columnar structure to complete the positioning of the electrolysis module 100, so as to ensure the accurate position of the electrolysis module 100 during installation.

[0084] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 The electrolysis module 100 also includes an upper cover 30, which is connected to one end of the side plate 14 and covers the electrolysis chamber 12. The upper cover 30 has a leakage hole. The upper cover 30 covers the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 within the electrolysis chamber 12, and there is a gap between the upper cover 30 and the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21. (See also...) Figure 4 The top cover 30 allows water from the main body 40 to enter the electrolysis chamber 12 through multiple drainage holes evenly distributed on the top cover 30. These drainage holes filter out large particles from the main body 40 that could enter the electrolysis chamber 12 and cause a short circuit between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, affecting the electrolysis effect. Simultaneously, the activated oxygen water generated during electrolysis can enter the solution tank 200 through the drainage holes, and can also disperse into the solution chamber 41 of the main body 40, allowing the activated oxygen water to dissolve better and more evenly in the water, resulting in better purification. Furthermore, the top cover 30 is detachably connected to the side plate 14, allowing the top cover 30 to be removed separately for maintenance without affecting the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21.

[0085] See Figure 5 The module bracket 10 also has a grounding portion 16, which is coupled to one of the two conductive elements 22. For example, the conductive element 22b connected to the second electrode 21 is coupled to the grounding portion 16, so that the second electrode 21 is grounded, while the first electrode 20 is not grounded. A voltage difference is formed between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, thereby determining whether the solution tank 200 is properly assembled. See, for example, [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 2 A barrel grounding component 55 is provided on the barrel body 40 at a position corresponding to the grounding part 16, and the barrel grounding component 55 is coupled to the grounding part 16. See Figure 9 A body grounding component 75 is provided on the body assembly 60 at the position corresponding to the barrel grounding component 55, and the body grounding component 75 is coupled to the barrel grounding component 55. When the solution barrel 200 is loaded onto the body assembly 60, the main control system is grounded because it is connected to the grounding part 16, and receives a zero voltage signal from the ground, thereby determining that the solution barrel 200 is loaded in place; otherwise, it determines that the solution barrel 200 is not in place, and needs to remind the user to load the solution barrel 200. When the solution barrel 200 is not loaded or is not loaded in place, the body assembly cannot be turned on or will not work after being turned on.

[0086] In this embodiment, the implementation of the grounding part 16 can refer to the implementation of the contact part 11, the implementation of the barrel grounding member 55 can refer to the implementation of the barrel conductive member 50, and the implementation of the fuselage grounding member 75 can refer to the implementation of the fuselage conductive member 70.

[0087] Furthermore, in the embodiments of this application, the contact portion 11 on the electrolysis module 100 can be implemented in various ways according to different needs. One possible implementation is, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 7Both contact portions 11 and the grounding portion 16 are tubular structures, with the tube walls protruding from the module support 10. A tube sealing ring 17 is fitted onto the outer wall of the tube structure. Two conductive elements 22 are respectively disposed within the cavities of the corresponding tubular structures. The conductive elements 22 can be metal sheets. See also... Figure 4 The tubular structure is connected to the conductive element 50 on the solution tank 200 via the contact portion 11. One implementation of the conductive element 50 includes a connecting seat 51, a flexible element 52, and a contacting element 53. The connecting seat 51 has an inlet / outlet hole, partially filling the mounting hole, and abutting against the side wall of the tank body 40 and the module bracket 10 on both sides along the axial direction of the inlet / outlet hole. The flexible element 52 is located within the inlet / outlet hole, with one end connected to the conductive element 22. The contacting element 53 is movably disposed within the inlet / outlet hole and abuts against the other end of the flexible element 52.

[0088] Combination Figure 4 See Figure 8 When the solution tank 200 is assembled on the body assembly 60, the tank abutment 53 is squeezed by the body conductive component 70 on the body assembly 60. Under the action of the tank elastic component 52, the tank abutment 53 and the body conductive component 70 are in close contact, and the tank elastic component 52 and the conductive element 22 are in close contact. Thus, a stable conductive channel is formed between the body conductive component 70, the tank abutment 53, the tank elastic component 52 and the conductive element 22. The body conductive component 70 can supply power to the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 through the tank conductive component 50, thereby electrolyzing the water in the solution tank 200.

[0089] See also Figure 8 One implementation of the conductive component 70 includes a body support 71, a conductive sheet 72, and a conductive cable 73. The body support 71 is connected to the body assembly 60. The conductive sheet 72 is mounted on the body support 71 and is used to connect to the bucket conductive component 50. The conductive cable 73 is located inside the body assembly 60 and is connected to both the conductive sheet 72 and the main control system within the body assembly 60. The body support 71 provides support for the conductive sheet 72, the bucket abutment 53 abuts against the conductive sheet 72, and is then connected to the main control system on the body assembly 60 via the conductive cable 73. Thus, the main control system supplies power to the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 through the conductive cable 73, the conductive sheet 72, the bucket abutment 53, the bucket elastic component 52, and the conductive element 22.

[0090] Combination Figure 10 See Figure 11Another possible implementation of the contact portion 11 is that both contact portions 11 and the grounding portion 16 are hole structures, with two conductive elements 22 protruding from corresponding hole structures. The conductive element 22 can be a metal screw, or of course, a metal sheet. The conductive element 22 protrudes from the hole structure and connects to the bucket conductive element 50 on the solution tank 200. One implementation of the bucket conductive element 50 is that it includes a bucket conductive spring 54 disposed on the tank body 40, and the conductive element 22 is connected to the bucket conductive spring 54. When the solution tank 200 is assembled on the body assembly 60, the bucket conductive spring 54 contacts and connects with the body conductive element 70 on the body assembly 60, forming a conductive channel. The body conductive element 70 can supply power to the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 through the bucket conductive element 50, thereby electrolyzing the water in the solution tank 200.

[0091] Accordingly, see Figure 11 Another implementation of the conductive component 70 is as follows: the conductive component 70 includes a body support 71, a body abutment 721, a body elastic component 74, and a conductive cable 73. The body support 71 is connected to the body assembly 60. The body abutment 721 is movably mounted on the body support 71 for connection with the tank conductive component 50. The body elastic component 74 is connected to both the body support 71 and the body abutment 721. The conductive cable 73 is located within the body assembly 60 and is connected to both the body elastic component 74 and the main control system within the body assembly 60. When the solution tank 200 is assembled on the body assembly 60, the tank conductive spring 54 contacts and connects with the body abutment 721, forming a conductive channel. The conductive component 70 can supply power to the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 through the tank conductive component 50, thereby electrolyzing the water in the solution tank 200.

[0092] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of this application, conductive fasteners, conductive elements 22, barrel conductive elements 50 and body conductive elements 70 implemented in different ways according to different needs can all be combined and applied in the event of structural conflicts.

[0093] In this application embodiment, the cleaning equipment 300 includes, but is not limited to, a handheld cleaning machine, a standing cleaning machine, etc. The cleaning equipment 300 described in the above embodiments and the following embodiments is... Figure 1 The cleaning equipment 300 shown is used as an example for explanation. It should be noted that, taking the cleaning equipment 300 shown as an example, Figure 1 The cleaning device 300 shown is used as an example only and does not constitute an improper limitation of the embodiments of this application.

[0094] See Figure 1 , Figure 1The image shows a handheld cleaning machine, which includes a body assembly. One end of the body assembly has a handle 62 for the user to hold, and the other end has a floor brush 61 assembly. The body assembly has a mounting section, which can be a mounting groove or a mounting cavity, etc., and a solution tank 200 is installed in the mounting section. The solution tank 200 can spray solution onto the ground, which, in conjunction with the floor brush 61 assembly, cleans the ground. The body assembly 60 also has a suction unit. When the suction unit is working, it generates negative pressure, causing wastewater to be sucked into a collection tank through the floor brush 61 assembly.

[0095] Based on the technical solutions in the above embodiments, and correspondingly, in conjunction with Figures 1 to 3 See Figures 4 to 6 This application also provides a solution tank 200, including: a tank body 40 and an electrolysis module 100 disposed in the tank body 40. The electrolysis module 100 can be implemented by the electrolysis module 100 described in the above embodiments.

[0096] Specifically, see Figures 1 to 3 The electrolysis module 100 includes a module support 10, a first electrode 20 and a second electrode 21; the module support 10 has two contact portions 11 and an electrolysis chamber 12, and a support platform 13 is provided inside the electrolysis chamber 12; the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 are respectively disposed on the support platform 13 and are respectively connected to two conductive elements 22, and the two conductive elements 22 are respectively coupled to the two contact portions 11.

[0097] The barrel body 40 has a solution chamber 41, and barrel conductive elements 50 are respectively provided on the barrel body 40 at the positions corresponding to the two contact portions 11. The electrolysis module 100 is located inside the barrel body 40 and connected to the barrel body 40. At least the electrolysis chamber 12 is connected to the solution barrel 200, and the two conductive elements 22 are respectively coupled to the barrel conductive elements 50 at the corresponding positions.

[0098] Solution tanks 200300 include, but are not limited to, solution tanks 200 in cleaning equipment 300. Solution tank 200 is electrically connected to the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 in the electrolysis module 100 via a conductive component 50. Water in the solution chamber 41 can enter the electrolysis chamber 12. When the water submerges the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, current flows between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, which have different polarities, electrolyzing the water into an active oxygen aqueous solution formed by hydrogen ions and hydroxyl radicals with bactericidal properties. This achieves a bactericidal effect, eliminating the need for manual addition of disinfectant by the user and improving safety. Simultaneously, the conductivity of the electrolysis module 100 can be used to detect whether there is water in the solution tank 200, preventing abnormal water output. If there is no current between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, it can be determined that there is no water in the solution tank 200, forming an open circuit.

[0099] See Figure 6One possible implementation of the bucket conductive component 50 is that a mounting hole is provided on the side wall of the bucket body 40 at a position corresponding to the contact portion 11. The bucket conductive component 50 includes a connecting seat 51, a bucket elastic component 52, and a bucket abutment component 53. The connecting seat 51 has an inlet and outlet hole, and part of the connecting seat 51 is filled in the mounting hole, abutting against the side wall of the bucket body 40 and the module bracket 10 on both sides along the axial direction of the inlet and outlet hole, respectively. The bucket elastic component 52 is located in the inlet and outlet hole, and one end is connected to the conductive element 22. The bucket abutment component 53 is movably disposed in the inlet and outlet hole and abuts against the other end of the bucket elastic component 52.

[0100] See Figure 9 When the solution tank 200 is assembled on the body assembly 60, the tank abutment 53 is squeezed by the body conductive component 70 on the body assembly 60. Under the action of the tank elastic component 52, the tank abutment 53 and the body conductive component 70 are in close contact, and the tank elastic component 52 and the conductive element 22 are in close contact. Thus, a stable conductive channel is formed between the body conductive component 70, the tank abutment 53, the tank elastic component 52 and the conductive element 22. The body conductive component 70 can supply power to the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 through the tank conductive component 50, thereby electrolyzing the water in the solution tank 200.

[0101] To limit the movement of the barrel abutment 53, a first limiting protrusion is provided on the wall of the inlet / outlet hole, and a second limiting protrusion is provided on the barrel abutment 53 to cooperate with the first limiting protrusion. The second limiting protrusion can be a flange on the barrel abutment 53. Without the action of external force, the barrel abutment 53 moves away from the electrolysis module 100. Due to the limitation of the flange and the first limiting protrusion, the barrel abutment 53 can only partially extend out of the inlet / outlet hole.

[0102] Furthermore, all contact parts 11 are tubular structures, with a tube sealing ring 17 fitted onto the outer wall of the tubular structure. The contact part 11 is fitted into the inlet / outlet hole and abuts against the hole wall via the tube sealing ring 17. The tube sealing ring 17 seals the gap between the contact part 11 and the connecting seat 51, preventing liquid leakage. To further prevent liquid leakage, a sealing ring is also provided between the connecting seat 51 and the barrel body 40.

[0103] The elastic element 52 of the bucket extends into the contact portion 11 and connects to the conductive element 22. The extension of the elastic element 52 into the contact portion 11 limits the extension and retraction direction of the elastic element 52, preventing the elastic element 52 from bending and affecting the movement direction of the bucket abutment 53.

[0104] See Figure 11Another possible implementation of the bucket conductive component 50 is that a mounting hole is provided on the side wall of the bucket body 40 at a position corresponding to the contact portion 11. The bucket conductive component 50 includes a bucket conductive spring piece 54 disposed on the bucket body 40, with a portion of the bucket conductive spring piece 54 located within the mounting hole. A conductive element 22 is connected to the bucket conductive spring piece 54. The conductive element 22 can be a metal screw, or of course, a metal sheet. The conductive element 22 protrudes from the contact portion 11 and connects to the bucket conductive spring piece 54 on the solution bucket 200. When the solution bucket 200 is assembled on the body assembly 60, the bucket conductive spring piece 54 contacts and connects with the body conductive component 70 on the body assembly 60, forming a conductive channel. The body conductive component 70 can supply power to the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 through the bucket conductive component 50, thereby electrolyzing the water in the solution bucket 200.

[0105] It should be noted that the implementation of the solution tank 200 in this embodiment can be referred to the implementation in the above embodiments, and they can be mutually referenced. They will not be described in detail here.

[0106] Based on the technical solutions in the above embodiments, see Figures 5 to 7 Accordingly, in one embodiment of this application, an electrolysis module 100 is provided, which includes a module support 10, a first electrode 20, and a second electrode 21. The module support 10 has two contact portions 11 and an electrolysis chamber 12, and a support platform 13 is provided inside the electrolysis chamber 12. The first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 are respectively disposed on the support platform 13 and are respectively connected to two conductive elements 22, which are respectively coupled to the two contact portions 11. For ease of understanding, the conductive element 22 connected to the first electrode 20 can be referred to as conductive element 22a, and the conductive element 22 connected to the second electrode 21 can be referred to as conductive element 22b.

[0107] Electrical connections between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21 and external devices are achieved through two conductive elements 22 and corresponding conductive parts 50 in the bucket. When the water in the bucket body 40 submerges the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, electricity is passed between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, which have different polarities. This electrolyzes the water into an active oxygen aqueous solution formed by hydrogen ions and hydroxyl radicals with bactericidal properties, thereby achieving a bactericidal effect. This eliminates the need for users to manually add disinfectant, improving safety.

[0108] Simultaneously, the conductivity of the electrolysis module 100 can be used to detect whether there is water in the solution tank 200, preventing abnormal water output. For example, if there is no current between the first electrode 20 and the second electrode 21, it can be determined that there is no water in the solution tank 200, forming an open circuit. The cleaning equipment 300 can then be stopped, and the user will be notified that there is no water in the solution tank 200. Furthermore, the electrolysis module 100 in this embodiment can be applied not only to the cleaning equipment 300 but also to various other container electrolysis schemes.

[0109] The technical solution adopted in this application will be explained below in conjunction with specific application scenarios to aid understanding. The following application scenarios are illustrated in... Figure 1 The cleaning machine shown is an example.

[0110] Application Scenario 1

[0111] When users use the cleaning machine to perform cleaning work, they can spray the solution onto the ground through the solution tank.

[0112] An electrolysis module is installed inside the solution tank. The solution tank is connected to a conductive element at a corresponding contact point via a conductive component at a corresponding location. The body assembly is connected to the corresponding tank conductive component via a conductive component at a corresponding location, thereby connecting the first and second electrodes to the main control system on the body assembly. The body assembly supplies power to the first and second electrodes.

[0113] When water from the solution tank enters the electrolysis chamber, electricity is passed between the first and second electrodes of different polarities, electrolyzing the water into an active oxygen aqueous solution formed by hydrogen ions and hydroxyl radicals with bactericidal properties. This achieves a bactericidal effect, eliminating the need for users to manually add disinfectant and improving safety.

[0114] Application Scenario 2

[0115] When a user uses the cleaning machine for cleaning, if there is too little water in the solution tank, it will not be able to submerge the first and second electrodes. At this time, the first and second electrodes will be in an open circuit state.

[0116] The main control system within the fuselage assembly detects that the first and second electrodes are in an open circuit state and can issue a warning or shut down the machine.

[0117] Application Scenario 3

[0118] When the user assembles the solution container onto the machine assembly, improper installation results in the main control system not receiving a grounded signal (i.e., no zero-voltage signal is received), leading to the conclusion that the solution container is not properly installed and prompting the user to install it. If the solution container is not installed or is improperly installed, the machine assembly cannot be powered on or will not function after powering on.

[0119] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
