Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0075] During operation of a cleaning base station of a cleaning equipment taking a floor scrubber as an example, the cleaning base station needs to have the function of drying the scrubbing parts of the floor scrubber.

The drying fan 105 is arranged in the air duct. The heating module 106 is arranged in the air duct, and the energy-consuming and heating component 102, the drying fan 105 and the heating module 106 are arranged in sequence along the blowing direction of the drying fan 105.

[0080] During use of the cleaning base station of the embodiment of the present invention, the energy-consuming and heating component 102 in the cleaning base station will release heat, and the drying fan 105 can obtain the airflow heated by the energy-consuming and heating component 102 from the energy-consuming and heating component 102, and drive the airflow to pass through the heating module 106 for secondary heating and then blow it out from the drying port 104, thereby drying the scrubbing parts of the cleaning equipment with the help of the secondary heated airflow.

[0081] Through such an arrangement, not only the airflow is heated twice, thereby quickly drying the scrubbing parts without increasing the power consumption of the heating module 106, thus reducing the energy consumption of the cleaning base station, but also the airflow can be forced to pass through the energy-consuming heating component 102 of the cleaning base station and take away the heat released by the energy-consuming heating component 102 during operation, thereby avoiding the energy-consuming heating component 102 from overheating, which may affect the service life of the energy-consuming heating component 102 and even cause safety hazards.

[0082] Therefore, the cleaning base station of the embodiment of the present invention can quickly dry the scrubbing parts without increasing the power consumption of the cleaning base station, and at the same time help to extend the service life of the energy-consuming and heat-generating components 102, help to extend the service life of the cleaning base station, and improve the safety of the cleaning base station.

[0086] The air duct includes a first subsection and a second subsection, and the cleaning base station also includes a component housing 1011 and an air duct tube 1012 .

[0087] The energy-consuming and heat-generating component 102 is disposed in the component housing 1011, and the component housing 1011 is connected to the air inlet 103. One end of the air duct 1012 is connected to the component housing 1011, and the other end is connected to the input end of the drying fan 105. The first subsection is disposed in the component housing 1011, and the second subsection is disposed in the air duct 1012.

[0088] By such a configuration, the component housing 1011 can be mounted outside the energy-consuming and heating component 102, and a ventilation gap arranged around the energy-consuming and heating component 102 is formed between the component housing 1011 and the energy-consuming and heating component 102, thereby promoting the airflow to fully contact the energy-consuming and heating component 102 and take away the heat generated by the energy-consuming and heating component 102 during operation, which can help to increase the initial temperature of the airflow at the heating module while fully cooling the energy-consuming and heating component 102.

[0089] The air inlet 103 may be optionally disposed on a side of the component housing 1011 away from the air duct tube 1012 , which can reduce the flow resistance in the air duct.

[0090] In one embodiment, the cleaning base station further includes an upper shell, which is disposed on the upper side of the energy-consuming and heat-generating component 102 .

[0091] As a convertible implementation, in an embodiment not shown in the drawings, the air inlet 103 may also be optionally arranged on the top wall or the bottom wall of the base station body 1 .

[0095] In order to prevent dust carried by the airflow from falling onto the circuit board and causing a short circuit or signal interference, a filter is preferably provided at the air inlet 103, which can filter the dust entering the component housing 1011, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the circuit board.

[0096] As a convertible implementation mode, in another embodiment not shown in the accompanying drawings, the circuit board is a packaged circuit board, and heat dissipation fins are provided on the outside of the circuit board.

[0098] In one embodiment, a cleaning groove 107 for accommodating a scrubbing member of a cleaning device is formed on the base station body 1 , and the drying port 104 is disposed in the cleaning groove 107 .

[0099] By such arrangement, when the floor scrubber body of the cleaning equipment is placed on the body of the cleaning base station, the cleaning base station can dry the scrubbing parts through the drying device without the operator having to move the floor scrubber body, and the operation is simple and convenient.

[0100] Components such as the fan 1021 and the motor 1022 can be used to perform basic functions such as negative pressure sewage extraction and positive pressure sewage discharge. For example, the motor 1022 is mainly responsible for providing power in the cleaning base station of the floor scrubber to drive the rotation of the brush and the movement of the roller.

[0101] As a convertible embodiment, the drying port 104 can also be optionally arranged at one side of the cleaning base station. When the scrubbing element needs to be dried, the operator can place the scrubber body at one side of the cleaning base station and arrange the scrubbing element opposite to the drying port 104, thereby drying the scrubbing element with the help of the drying port 104.

[0103] By such arrangement, the arc groove 1071 can not only be used to accommodate and limit the scrubbing member, but also can be used to increase the wind receiving area of ​​the roller brush, thereby further improving the drying efficiency of the scrubbing member by the cleaning base station.

[0106] Through such an arrangement, a third sub-section of the air duct can be enclosed in the cleaning base station through a simple structure, which can make the structure of the cleaning base station simpler and more compact. The operator only needs to put the drying fan 105 and the heating module 106 into the bottom shell 108 of the base station body 1, and then cover the air duct shell 1014 on the heating module 106 and the drying fan 105 to complete the assembly of these components.

From bottom to top, the air guide plate 10142 is inclined in a direction away from the air duct shell body 10141.

[0109] By such arrangement, the air guide plate 10142 can guide and deflect the airflow so that the airflow can blow directly onto the scrubbing member and further increase the contact between the airflow and the scrubbing member, thereby increasing the drying efficiency of the cleaning base station on the scrubbing member.

[0110] In one embodiment, a connecting rib 10143 is provided between the air duct shell 1014 body and the air guide plate 10142 , and the connecting rib 10143 extends along the distance direction between the air duct shell 1014 and the air guide plate 10142 , and is used to connect the air duct shell 1014 body and the air guide plate 10142 .

[0111] In a preferred embodiment, there are multiple connecting ribs 10143, which are evenly arranged along the length direction of the drying port 104. Through such an arrangement, the connecting ribs 10143 can also promote the uniform distribution of the airflow at the drying port 104.

The upper cover 109 is detachably covered on the bottom shell 108 , which can facilitate the energy-consuming and heat-generating components 102 , the drying fan 105 and the heating element to be placed into the bottom shell 108 .

[0113] The cleaning tank 107 and the drying port 104 are formed on the upper cover 109 .

[0132] Step S3 includes: if the power of the floor scrubber body reaches the basic power level, controlling the roller brush to rotate.

[0133] Through such a configuration, the control method of the cleaning equipment in the embodiment of the present application can control the rotation of the roller brush after determining that the power of the floor scrubber main body has reached the basic power, and then control the cleaning base station to dry the roller brush in the rotating state, thereby enabling the cleaning base station to dry the roller brush evenly and helping to improve the drying efficiency of the roller brush by the cleaning base station.

[0134] Exemplarily, the basic power level may be selected as 20% power level.

[0135] As a convertible implementation method, the basic power amount can also be adjusted according to the model of the cleaning base station, etc., which is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0136] In one embodiment, after step S2, step S4 is further included:

[0137] Step S4: If the power of the floor scrubber body does not reach the basic power, the cleaning base station is controlled to continue cleaning the scrubbing parts, and the cleaning base station charges the floor scrubber body.

[0138] The control method of the embodiment of the present application further includes: when the power of the floor scrubber body of the cleaning base station reaches a basic power level, executing step S2.

[0139] The operation of the cleaning base station charging the floor scrubber body can be optionally started simultaneously with step S1.

[0140] As a convertible implementation, the operation of the cleaning base station charging the main body of the floor scrubber may also be selected to start after determining that the power of the main body of the floor scrubber has not reached the basic power.

[0141] In one embodiment, before cleaning the floor scrubber body, the method further includes:

[0142] Determine whether the main body of the floor scrubber is placed in the floor scrubber base station;

[0143] If the floor scrubber body is not placed in the floor scrubber base station, the cleaning base station does not start any energy-consuming and heat-generating components 102;

[0144] If the floor scrubber body has been placed in the floor scrubber base station, step S1 is executed.

[0145] In summary, the control amplification of the cleaning base station of the first aspect, the cleaning equipment of the second aspect and the cleaning equipment of the third aspect of the present invention can quickly dry the scrubbing parts without increasing the power consumption of the cleaning base station, and at the same time help to extend the service life of the energy-consuming and heat-generating components 102, help to extend the service life of the cleaning base station, and improve the safety of the cleaning base station.

[0146] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations are all within the scope of protection claimed by the present application.
