[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of clothing cleaning, and specifically relates to a combined washing device; in particular, it relates to a combined household electrical appliance with integrated ironing, sweeping and washing functions. Background Art

[0002] Most washing machines on the market now have wrinkles on clothes when you take out clothes after the washing process is completed, which affects the user experience. In order to remove the wrinkles on clothes, users generally need to buy an ironing machine to use steam to iron clothes and remove the wrinkles on clothes.

[0003] In addition, as households now generally use floor tiles, flooring, etc. to pave their home floors, in order to meet the cleaning needs of the floor, more and more households have purchased floor washing robots, which use the free walking of the floor washing robots to automatically clean the floor. However, the existing washing robots need to set up a base station, and use the base station to automatically clean and charge the floor washing robots.

[0004] The above-mentioned washing equipment, ironing equipment, floor washing equipment, etc. are respectively arranged in different bodies, and users are required to place them separately and arrange water supply and drainage, power supply, etc. separately, which greatly affects the user experience.

[0005] At the same time, since different household appliances are not compatible and connected to each other, water cannot be shared among different household appliances. In particular, the water used by washing equipment to rinse clothes and the water that meets the set water quality standards cannot be used by floor washing robots for cleaning, resulting in a waste of water resources.
