[0072] To address the technical problem of the complex detergent addition process, this application proposes a cleaning base station, a clothing handling device, and a cleaning system. The detergent dispenser assembly is inserted into the receiving cavity of the base through an opening. When detergent needs to be added, the detergent dispenser assembly is pulled out in the opposite direction to the insertion direction, thus removing the detergent dispenser from the receiving cavity. This facilitates the disassembly and reassembly of the detergent dispenser or the addition of detergent, reducing the complexity of the detergent addition process and ensuring the cleaning effect on the cleaning components, and / or ensuring the addition of detergent to the water tank of the cleaning robot.
[0073] The cleaning robot can be a robot with cleaning functions such as washing and sweeping, or a robot that combines sweeping and mopping. After working for a period of time, the cleaning robot needs to return to the cleaning base station, where it will receive services such as cleaning the robot's cleaning components. The cleaning base station can also provide services such as refilling water or charging the robot.
[0074] The cleaning robot may include a first communication module, and the cleaning base station may include a second communication module. The cleaning robot and the cleaning base station can communicate with each other via the first and second communication modules. For example, when the cleaning robot is cleaning a component, it can wirelessly communicate with the first and second communication modules to control the robot to return to the cleaning base station and continue cleaning the component, allowing the robot to continue its subsequent cleaning work. Specifically, the first and second communication modules may include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following wireless data communication modules: Bluetooth module, Wireless Fidelity (WIFI) module, 4th Generation / 5th Generation (4G / 5G) communication module, or infrared module.
[0075] Combination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the cleaning base station 1 includes a base 10, a detergent box assembly 20, a water storage box 30, a conversion component 40, and a liquid pump 50. The cleaning base station 1 may also include a receiving chamber (not shown), into which a cleaning robot can enter to clean its cleaning components and / or replenish the robot's water tank. The base 10 may be positioned above the receiving chamber to prevent cleaning fluid from entering the base 10 and affecting the normal operation of other devices on the base 10.
[0076] The base 10 is used to install components such as the water storage box 30 and the detergent box assembly 20. The water storage box 30 has a water storage chamber inside, which is used to supply water to the cleaning components of the cleaning robot and clean them. Simultaneously, the water storage chamber can also be used to supply water to the cleaning robot's water tank, thereby replenishing the water tank and ensuring the cleaning robot can complete its floor cleaning work. The detergent box assembly 20 includes at least one detergent box containing detergent. At least one detergent box is connected to the water storage box 30, thereby supplying detergent to the water storage box 30. When the water in the water storage box 30 acts on the cleaning components, the water supply containing detergent improves the cleaning effect on the cleaning components, allowing them to be effectively cleaned within the cleaning base station 1. When the water in the water storage box 30 is used to replenish the cleaning robot's water tank, it ensures that detergent is added to the water tank, guaranteeing subsequent cleaning work by the cleaning robot. The base 10 has an opening at one end, through which the detergent dispenser assembly 20 can be inserted into the receiving cavity of the base 10. By inserting the detergent dispenser assembly 20 into the receiving cavity of the base 10 through the opening, when detergent needs to be added, the detergent dispenser assembly 20 is pulled out in the opposite direction to the insertion direction, thereby removing the detergent dispenser assembly 20 from the receiving cavity. This facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the detergent dispenser or the addition of detergent, reduces the complexity of the detergent addition process, and ensures the cleaning effect on the cleaning components, and / or ensures the addition of detergent to the water tank of the cleaning robot.
[0077] The water storage box 30 is connected to at least one detergent box via a conversion component 40 and a liquid pump 50. The conversion component 40 has an inlet channel and an outlet channel. The inlet end of the liquid pump 50 is connected to the detergent box via the inlet channel, and the outlet end of the liquid pump 50 is connected to the water storage box 30 via the outlet channel. Thus, the liquid pump 50 pumps the detergent in the detergent box into the water storage box 30.
[0078] By incorporating a liquid pump 50 and a converter 40, detergent from the detergent dispenser is pumped into the water storage tank 30, thereby further improving the cleaning effect on the cleaning components. Simultaneously, the converter 40 reduces the number of connecting pipes, facilitating the installation of other components within the cleaning base station 1.
[0079] Combination Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the base 10 includes a cover plate 11 and a base 12 that cooperate with each other. The cover plate 11 and the base 12 together form a receiving cavity with an opening at one end. The detergent cartridge assembly 20 is slidably inserted into the receiving cavity through the opening, thereby facilitating the disassembly and reassembly of the detergent cartridge assembly 20 or the replenishment of detergent. The insertion direction of the detergent cartridge assembly 20 is arranged horizontally or at an angle to the horizontal direction. The bottom of the detergent box assembly 20 is provided with a first sliding groove 2115 along the insertion direction, and the bottom surface of the receiving cavity is provided with a first sliding rail 121 that cooperates with the first sliding groove 2115. That is, the top surface of the base 12 is provided with a first sliding rail 121 along the insertion direction. The first sliding rail 121 is inserted into the first sliding groove 2115, thereby ensuring that the detergent box assembly 20 can be inserted into the receiving cavity along the first sliding rail 121, thereby ensuring the sliding connection between the detergent box assembly 20 and the base 10, facilitating the disassembly of the detergent box assembly 20, and ensuring the insertion direction of the detergent box assembly 20.
[0080] Combined Figures 2 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the detergent dispenser assembly 20 includes a dispenser box 21 and at least one detergent dispenser. The dispenser box 21 includes a dispenser box body 211, a first support leg 212, and a second support leg 213. At least one detergent dispenser is disposed on the dispenser box body 211. The first support leg 212 and the second support leg 213 protrude from the front end face of the dispenser box body 211 along the insertion direction and are respectively disposed on both sides of the width direction of the dispenser box body 211, thereby extending the mating length between the dispenser box 21 and the receiving cavity. The width direction of the dispenser box body 211 is horizontal or at an angle to the horizontal direction and perpendicular to the insertion direction. When the dispenser box body 211 is removed from the receiving cavity, the first support leg 212 and the second support leg 213 are still located in the receiving cavity of the base 10, which can effectively prevent the dispenser box 21 from falling off the base 10. Therefore, when replacing the detergent box or adding detergent, it is not necessary to completely remove the detergent box assembly 20 from the receiving cavity, only the dispenser box body 211 needs to be removed from the receiving cavity.
[0081] Specifically, there is one first slide groove 2115, and the first slide groove 2115 is located at the middle position of the width direction of the dispenser box body 211, that is, at the middle position of the width direction of the dispenser box 21. This reduces the number of first slide grooves 2115 and first slide rails 121, and ensures the smooth operation of the dispenser box 21 during the insertion process.
[0082] The dispenser box body 211 is also provided with a first mounting groove 2111 and a second mounting groove 2112 spaced apart, the first mounting groove 2111 and the second mounting groove 2112 being respectively located on both sides of the first slide groove 2115. At least one detergent box includes a first detergent box 221 and a second detergent box 222, the first detergent box 221 being located in the first mounting groove 2111 and the second detergent box 222 being located in the second mounting groove 2112, thereby so that the first detergent box 221 and the second detergent box 222 are respectively located on both sides of the first slide groove 2115. The first slide groove 2115 is formed by a partial structural recess between the first mounting groove 2111 and the second mounting groove 2112. The first mounting groove 2111 has a first notch 2113 at its front end along the insertion direction, and the first detergent box 221 has a first connecting end 2211. When the first detergent box 221 is placed in the first mounting groove 2111, the first connecting end 2211 extends through the first notch 2113 to communicate with the adapter 40. The second mounting groove 2112 has a second notch 2114 at its front end along the insertion direction, and the second detergent box 222 has a second connecting end 2221. When the second detergent box 222 is placed in the second mounting groove 2112, the second connecting end 2221 extends through the second notch 2114 to communicate with the adapter 40.
[0083] Combined Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, a second slide rail 214 protrudes from the top of the dispenser box body 211 along the insertion direction, and a second slide groove 111 that mates with the second slide rail 214 is provided on the top surface of the receiving cavity. That is, the bottom surface of the cover plate 11 is provided with a second slide groove 111 along the insertion direction, and the second slide rail 214 is inserted into the second slide groove 111, thereby further ensuring the sliding connection between the detergent box assembly 20 and the base 10, and ensuring the insertion direction of the detergent box assembly 20. At least a portion of the second slide rail 214 protrudes from the front end face of the dispenser box body 211 along the insertion direction. When the dispenser box body 211 moves out of the receiving cavity, the engagement of the second slide rail 214 with the second slide groove 111 further prevents the dispenser box 21 from falling off the base 10.
[0084] Specifically, there is one second slide rail 214. A first slide groove 2115 and a second slide rail 214 are respectively located at the midpoint of the width direction of the dispenser box body 211. That is, the first slide groove 2115 and the second slide rail 214 are arranged vertically opposite each other along the height direction of the dispenser box body 211, thereby ensuring the smooth insertion and removal of the dispenser box 21. The height direction of the dispenser box body 211 is perpendicular to both the insertion direction and the width direction.
[0085] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the bottom surface of the end of the receiving cavity with an opening is provided with a support protrusion 122, that is, the top surface of the base 12 is provided with a support protrusion 122, and the distance between the support protrusion 122 and the top surface of the receiving cavity gradually increases along the insertion direction.
[0086] By providing the support protrusion 122, the portion of the dispenser box body 211 located outside the receiving cavity can be lifted by the support protrusion 122, thereby preventing the dispenser box body 211 from falling outside the receiving cavity due to gravity after being moved out of the receiving cavity. Thus, the first detergent box 221 and the second detergent box 222 can be replaced or detergent can be added without completely removing the detergent box assembly 20 from the receiving cavity.
[0087] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the top of the receiving cavity is provided with at least one rotating member 112, which is rotatably connected to the base 10 and abuts against the top surface of the detergent box assembly 20, and the rotating member 112 can rotate during the process of inserting and removing the detergent box assembly 20 into the receiving cavity.
[0088] Specifically, the rotating member 112 abuts against the top surface of the dispenser box 21. By providing the rotating member 112 at the top of the receiving cavity, and by having the rotating member 112 abut against the top surface of the detergent box assembly 20, the rotating member 112 rotates under the action of the detergent box assembly 20 during the insertion and removal of the detergent box assembly 20. The top surface of the detergent box assembly 20 will not contact and rub against the top surface of the receiving cavity, thereby avoiding wear on the detergent box assembly 20 and improving its service life.
[0089] Combined Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 8As shown, in some embodiments of this application, at least one rotating member 112 is provided on each of the two sides of the detergent box assembly 20 in the width direction, thereby ensuring that the force on the dispenser box 21 is balanced and preventing the dispenser box 21 from shaking. At the same time, the rotating member 112 abuts against the two sides of the top of the dispenser box 21, but does not abut against the first detergent box 221 and the second detergent box 222. During the insertion and removal of the detergent box assembly 20, the rotating member 112 will not have difficulty rotating due to contact with the first detergent box 221 and the second detergent box 222, thus ensuring the normal rotation process of the rotating member 112.
[0090] Specifically, at least two rotating members 112 are provided on each side of the detergent dispenser assembly 20 in the width direction, and the at least two rotating members 112 on each side are spaced apart along the insertion direction. This extends the engagement length between the rotating member 112 and the dispenser box 21 by the spaced-apart rotating members 112, ensuring the stability of the detergent dispenser assembly 20 during insertion and removal. When the detergent dispenser assembly 20 is fully inserted into the receiving cavity or most of the detergent dispenser assembly 20 is inserted into the receiving cavity, the dispenser box body 211, the first support leg 212, and the second support leg 213 abut against the rotating members 112.
[0091] When the dispenser box body 211 is completely or mostly removed from the receiving cavity, the dispenser box 21, under the influence of gravity, is prone to tilting upwards, which can easily cause it to scrape against the bottom surface of the cover plate 11, leading to wear. Due to the rotating component 112, when the dispenser box body 211 is completely or mostly removed from the receiving cavity, the first support legs 212 and the second support legs 213 on both sides of the dispenser box 21 abut against the rotating component 112, thereby preventing the detergent box assembly 20 from falling out of the receiving cavity due to gravity, and also preventing the first support legs 212 and the second support legs 213 from contacting and rubbing against the top surface of the receiving cavity, thus avoiding wear on the detergent box assembly 20. Specifically, in some embodiments of this application, the rotating component 112 is a roller.
[0092] Combined Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, some rollers protrude from the top surface of the base 10, thereby reducing the space occupied by the rollers in the receiving cavity, further increasing the space occupied by the detergent box assembly 20 in the receiving cavity, thereby increasing the volume of the detergent box and ensuring that there is sufficient detergent supply in the detergent box.
[0093] Combined Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 8As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the top surface of the base 10 is provided with a protective cover 113, which covers at least part of the roller, thereby protecting the portion of the roller protruding from the top surface of the base 10 and preventing the portion of the roller protruding from the top surface of the base 10 from being damaged by impact.
[0094] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the cleaning base station 1 further includes a first snap-fit member 70, which is disposed on the base 10 or the water storage box 30. The detergent box assembly 20 is provided with a second snap-fit member 2116. After the detergent box assembly 20 is inserted into the receiving cavity, it is snapped into the receiving cavity of the base 10 by the second snap-fit member 2116 and the first snap-fit member 70.
[0095] The detergent box assembly 20 is connected to the base 10 in a way that facilitates disassembly by engaging the first snap-fit connector 70 with the second snap-fit connector 2116. When detergent needs to be added, the detergent box assembly 20 is pulled out in the opposite direction to the insertion direction, thereby removing the detergent box from the receiving cavity. This makes it easy to replace the detergent box or add detergent, ensuring the cleaning effect on the cleaning components.
[0096] The second snap-fit member 2116 is located at the front end of the dispenser box body 211 along the insertion direction of the detergent box assembly 20. So when the detergent box assembly 20 is fully inserted into the receiving cavity of the base 10, the second snap-fit member 2116 engages with the first snap-fit member 70 to fix the detergent box assembly 20.
[0097] Combined Figure 1 and Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the second snap-fit member 2116 is located at the middle position in the width direction of the dispenser box body 211, wherein the middle position in the width direction of the dispenser box body 211 is the middle position in the width direction of the detergent box assembly 20.
[0098] By positioning the second snap-fit member 2116 at the midpoint of the width of the detergent dispenser assembly 20, the detergent dispenser assembly 20 can be secured by engaging with the first snap-fit member 70 using only one second snap-fit member 2116, thus preventing the detergent dispenser assembly 20 from shaking due to uneven force. In some other embodiments of this application, second snap-fit members 2116 may be provided on both sides of the width of the detergent dispenser assembly 20, and corresponding first snap-fit members 70 may be provided on the base 10 or the water storage box 30, thereby realizing the snap-fit process of the detergent dispenser assembly 20.
[0099] Combination Figures 11 to 13 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the first latching member 70 is an elephant trunk lock, which includes a base 71 and a swing arm 72 rotatably connected to the base 71. The swing arm 72 has a locked state and an unlocked state. The second latching member 2116 has a contoured surface that latches onto the end of the swing arm 72.
[0100] Specifically, Figure 12 With the swing arm 72 in the unlocked state, the second locking component 2116 is not engaged with the swing arm 72. Figure 13 With the swing arm 72 in the locked state, the second latching member 2116 is latched to the swing arm 72. By pushing the detergent box assembly 20 along the insertion direction, the second latching member 2116 can be unlocked or locked to the first latching member 70, thus facilitating the assembly and disassembly of the detergent box assembly 20.
[0101] Combined Figures 11 to 13 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the end of the swing arm 72 that engages with the second snap-fit member 2116 is provided with a roller 73. The roller 73 has a first cylindrical surface, the second snap-fit member 2116 has a second cylindrical surface, and the diameter of the second cylindrical surface is greater than or equal to the diameter of the first cylindrical surface.
[0102] Specifically, the roller 73 can rotate around its own axis. When the second locking member 2116 presses against the first locking member 70, the roller 73 moves towards the seat 71, thereby achieving the engagement of the second locking member 2116 with the first locking member 70. Simultaneously, the rotation of the roller 73 around its own axis prevents wear on the surface of the roller 73 caused by repeated friction, thus ensuring the reliability of the engagement between the second locking member 2116 and the roller 73. Setting the diameter of the second cylindrical surface to be greater than or equal to the diameter of the first cylindrical surface facilitates the fitting of the second locking member 2116 onto the outside of the roller 73, thus facilitating engagement.
[0103] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the water storage box 30 is provided with a first snap-fit groove 333, and the first snap-fit member 70 is snapped into the first snap-fit groove 333.

The two first positioning posts 335 are respectively inserted from the bottom of the first snap-fit member 70 into the two first mounting holes 74. By inserting the two first positioning posts 335 into the two first mounting holes 74 respectively, the first snap-fit member 70 can be further limited, preventing the first snap-fit member 70 from moving within the first snap-fit groove 333.
[0106] Combination Figures 16 to 18 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the conversion member 40 is disposed above the first snap-fit member 70, and the bottom of the conversion member 40 is provided with two second positioning posts 4141.

The conversion element 40 and the liquid pump 50 can be located between the first water storage box 31 and the second water storage box 32, thereby reducing the overall height of the cleaning base station 1. Simultaneously, the conversion element 40 can be located between the liquid pump 50 and the detergent box assembly 20, facilitating the connection between the liquid inlet of the liquid pump 50 and the first detergent box 221 and the second detergent box 222 via the conversion element 40. At the same time, the liquid pump 50 can pump detergent into both the first water storage box 31 and the second water storage box 32 simultaneously via the conversion element 40, improving the cleaning effect on the cleaning components of the cleaning robot. The first water storage box 31 and the second water storage box 32 are each provided with a water inlet, which can be used to connect to an external water supply unit to replenish water to the interior of the first water storage box 31 and the second water storage box 32.
[0109] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the adapter 83 includes a two-position three-way solenoid valve or a three-way valve. For ease of description, in some embodiments of this application, only a three-way valve is used as an example for illustrative purposes. The two inlets of the three-way valve are respectively connected to the outlets of the first water storage box 31 and the second water storage box 32, and the outlet of the three-way valve is connected to the electromagnetic pump 80. The electromagnetic pump 80 is used to pump water from the first water storage box 31 and the second water storage box 32 to the cleaning component of the cleaning robot for cleaning the cleaning component, and / or, the electromagnetic pump 80 is used to pump water from the first water storage box 31 and the second water storage box 32 to the water tank of the cleaning robot for replenishing the water tank. By simultaneously pumping water from the first water storage box 31 and the second water storage box 32 by the electromagnetic pump 80, the water in the first water storage box 31 and the second water storage box 32 is mixed, thereby adjusting the outlet water temperature of the electromagnetic pump 80 to better ensure the cleaning effect on the cleaning component, and / or to ensure the water temperature in the water tank.
