Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cleaning equipment, and in particular to a self-cleaning method, device and cleaning system for cleaning equipment. Background Art

[0002] Traditional cleaning equipment can struggle to effectively reach areas like under countertops and cabinet doors, in low spaces, and in corners. These areas can easily become blind spots, leading to the accumulation of dirt and bacteria. To address this, some cleaning equipment is equipped with auxiliary cleaning elements, such as wipes, to better reach and clean these hard-to-reach areas.

[0003] During the operation of cleaning equipment, rags and other executive parts will come into contact with a large amount of dirt and liquid. If these stains are not removed in time, they will gradually accumulate on the executive parts. The long-term accumulation of stains will not only reduce the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning equipment, but may also cause the rags to mold, produce odors, and even breed bacteria. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present application provides a self-cleaning method, device and cleaning system for cleaning equipment, which cleans the auxiliary cleaning parts by setting a receiving groove on the cleaning base station, which can also be understood as the self-cleaning of the executive parts. By supplying cleaning liquid to the receiving groove and controlling the rotation of the auxiliary cleaning parts, the dirt on the auxiliary cleaning parts is effectively removed, avoiding the accumulation of dirt. In this way, through the effective self-cleaning mechanism, the efficient operation of the cleaning equipment is maintained, and the continuity and stability of the cleaning effect are ensured.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides a self-cleaning method for a cleaning device, which is applied to a cleaning system. The cleaning system includes a cleaning device and a cleaning base station. The cleaning device includes a floor brush assembly and a cleaning member and an auxiliary cleaning member provided on the floor brush assembly. With the forward direction of the floor brush assembly as a reference, the auxiliary cleaning member is located behind the cleaning member. The cleaning base station includes a cleaning cavity and a receiving groove. The cleaning cavity is used to accommodate the cleaning member, and the receiving groove is used to accommodate the auxiliary cleaning member. The method includes:

[0006] When the cleaning device is located on the cleaning base station and responds to a self-cleaning instruction of the auxiliary cleaning member, controlling the water pump assembly to supply cleaning liquid into the accommodating tank;

[0007] The auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to rotate so as to clean the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0008] The existing cleaning equipment cannot clean the auxiliary cleaning parts in time or simply cleans the auxiliary cleaning parts when cleaning the surface to be cleaned. The above methods not only have poor cleaning effects but also have low cleaning efficiency, which makes the auxiliary cleaning parts easy to breed bacteria, produce odors, and even mold. Based on this, the present application provides a receiving groove at a position corresponding to the auxiliary cleaning parts on the cleaning base station, so that the auxiliary cleaning parts can be self-cleaned when the cleaning equipment is placed on the cleaning base station after use. Specifically, after the auxiliary cleaning parts are on the cleaning base station, if there is a need for the auxiliary cleaning parts to self-clean, in response to the self-cleaning After the cleaning instruction is received, the water pump assembly is controlled to open to transport the cleaning liquid into the receiving tank, directly contacting the auxiliary cleaning parts. The cleaning liquid can effectively soften and dissolve the dirt attached to the auxiliary cleaning parts. Furthermore, the auxiliary cleaning parts are controlled to rotate so that the auxiliary cleaning parts can be rinsed in the receiving tank, and the auxiliary cleaning parts can generate friction with the wall surface of the receiving tank during the rotation process, which can squeeze the auxiliary cleaning parts so that the dirt on the surface and inside can be effectively peeled off and removed. Further, combined with the collision between the auxiliary cleaning parts and the cleaning liquid during the rotation process, the auxiliary cleaning parts can be cleaned more thoroughly, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0009] It is understandable that by regularly self-cleaning the auxiliary cleaning parts, it can not only prevent dirt accumulation and ensure that the cleaning equipment can achieve the ideal cleaning effect every time it is used, but also prevent the formation of mold and odor, and reduce the possibility of bacterial growth, thereby ensuring the hygiene and safety of the cleaning equipment.

[0010] Optionally, the water pump assembly includes a first water pump and a second water pump, the first water pump is located on the cleaning device, and the second water pump is located on the cleaning base station; when the cleaning device is located on the cleaning base station and responds to a self-cleaning instruction of the auxiliary cleaning member, controlling the water pump assembly to provide cleaning liquid into the receiving tank includes:

[0011] When the cleaning device is located on the cleaning base station and responds to a self-cleaning instruction of the auxiliary cleaning member, at least one of the first water pump and the second water pump is controlled to start and supply cleaning liquid into the accommodating tank.

[0012] Therefore, this dual water pump design provides higher flexibility and stability, allowing the cleaning system to choose to use one or two water pumps according to the specific situation. For example, when one water pump fails, the other water pump can still provide cleaning fluid, thereby improving the flexibility and stability of the cleaning system. The combined use of the two water pumps can ensure an adequate supply of cleaning fluid, thereby enhancing the cleaning effect, especially when a large amount of cleaning fluid is required. In addition, choosing to start the first water pump or the second water pump according to demand, or starting both water pumps at the same time, can not only more flexibly control energy consumption, thereby saving energy, but also achieve synergy between the two, thereby optimizing the delivery path and efficiency of the cleaning fluid.

[0013] Optionally, the auxiliary cleaning member has at least an initial position and a first position, and a gap exists between the auxiliary cleaning member and the surface to be cleaned when the auxiliary cleaning member is in the initial position; when the auxiliary cleaning member is in the first position, the auxiliary cleaning member contacts the surface to be cleaned and is capable of cleaning the surface to be cleaned; controlling the rotation of the auxiliary cleaning member includes:

[0014] The auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to rotate at an initial position to clean the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0015] The auxiliary cleaning part is in the initial position for cleaning and can rotate more freely to ensure that its surface is fully cleaned. When cleaning in the initial position, the auxiliary cleaning part is not hindered by other components and can rotate at a suitable speed and angle to avoid conflict with the receiving groove. This position-optimized cleaning process improves the efficiency and effect of self-cleaning.

[0016] Optionally, the cleaning device further includes a suction motor; the suction motor is used to provide suction force for extracting the liquid in the accommodating tank; and the method further includes:

[0017] During the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the suction motor is controlled to be in an on state to suck the liquid in the receiving tank into the sewage tank on the cleaning device;

[0018] In the process of self-cleaning of the auxiliary cleaning part, the suction time of the suction motor is less than or equal to the liquid filling time of the water pump assembly.

[0019] Therefore, timely extraction by the suction motor prevents excessive accumulation of liquid in the storage tank, maintains the smoothness of the cleaning process, and ensures full utilization of the cleaning liquid and timely treatment of sewage. In addition, timely extraction of sewage can also prevent liquid overflow in the storage tank and avoid pollution to the cleaning base station and the surrounding environment.

[0020] It should be noted that the above-mentioned automated liquid management can also reduce the user's operational complexity, that is, the user does not need to manually handle sewage, which greatly improves the intelligence level of the cleaning equipment and enhances the user experience.

[0021] Optionally, the water pump assembly includes a first water pump and a second water pump, the first water pump is located on the cleaning device, and the second water pump is located on the cleaning base station. Controlling the water pump assembly to provide cleaning liquid into the containing tank includes:

[0022] Controlling the first water pump and the second water pump to be in an open state, and controlling the water pump assembly to supply cleaning liquid into the containing tank;

[0023] The suction motor is controlled to be in an on state to suck the liquid in the accommodating tank into the sewage tank on the cleaning equipment.

[0024] In this way, by working simultaneously with two water pumps, a rapid and sufficient supply of cleaning liquid can be ensured, which improves the efficiency of the self-cleaning process. The synchronous start-up of the suction motor also ensures the timely treatment of the liquid in the storage tank, prevents excessive accumulation of liquid, and maintains the smooth progress of the cleaning process. Through effective liquid management, the overflow of liquid in the storage tank is also prevented, avoiding pollution of the cleaning base station and the surrounding environment, and improving the user experience.

[0025] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0026] Control the first water pump to switch from the on state to the off state, and control the second water pump and the suction motor to remain in the on state;

[0027] The rotation speed of the auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to be reduced to a preset rotation speed so as to flush the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0028] Therefore, by turning off the first water pump, unnecessary cleaning liquid supply can be reduced and resources can be saved, while ensuring the continuous operation of the second water pump and the suction motor, and ensuring the liquid flushing of the auxiliary cleaning parts and timely treatment of sewage. By reducing the rotation speed of the auxiliary cleaning parts, the auxiliary cleaning liquid can stay on the surface of the auxiliary cleaning parts for a longer time and be evenly wetted, ensuring that every part of the auxiliary cleaning parts can be thoroughly cleaned, avoiding cleaning dead corners, and thus enhancing the cleaning effect. In this way, through the above-mentioned optimized cleaning process, the auxiliary cleaning parts can be kept to provide ideal performance every time they are used.

[0029] Optionally, the auxiliary cleaning member has at least an initial position and a third position, wherein a gap exists between the auxiliary cleaning member and the surface to be cleaned when the auxiliary cleaning member is in the initial position, the third position and the initial position are located in the same plane in the vertical direction, and the interference fit of the auxiliary cleaning member with the accommodating groove is different in the third position and the initial position; cleaning the auxiliary cleaning member includes:

[0030] The auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to move between the initial position and the third position, and the interference between the auxiliary cleaning member and the accommodating groove is adjusted to rinse the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0031] Therefore, during the cleaning process, by controlling the auxiliary cleaning member to move up and down between the initial position and the third position, the contact mode between the auxiliary cleaning member and the accommodating groove is changed, ensuring that the cleaning liquid can more effectively cover and clean the surface of the auxiliary cleaning member, which helps to remove stubborn dirt and residues. Since the interference fit can be adjusted by the up and down movement, the cleaning liquid can be evenly distributed on the surface of the auxiliary cleaning member, avoiding cleaning dead corners and improving the comprehensiveness and uniformity of cleaning.

[0032] In addition, dynamic adjustment of the interference fit can also reduce unnecessary friction during the cleaning process, reduce wear, and thus extend the service life of auxiliary cleaning parts and reduce the frequency of replacement.

[0033] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0034] The cleaning device is located at the cleaning base station and performs a self-cleaning process, wherein the cleaning member is self-cleaned and / or the auxiliary cleaning member is self-cleaned.

[0035] Therefore, by self-cleaning the cleaning parts and / or auxiliary cleaning parts, it can be ensured that the cleaning parts and / or auxiliary cleaning parts are kept in a good cleaning state, wherein the self-cleaning process of the cleaning parts and the auxiliary cleaning parts can be allowed to proceed simultaneously, which can not only significantly shorten the cleaning cycle and improve the overall efficiency, but also make more effective use of water pumps and other resources. In addition, according to the specific cleaning needs and component status, it can be flexibly selected to perform self-cleaning of the cleaning parts and the auxiliary cleaning parts simultaneously or successively, providing greater operational flexibility and adaptability.

[0036] Optionally, the cleaning device further includes a suction motor and a sewage tank, and the cleaning base station further includes a drainage pipe, wherein the suction motor is used to suck the liquid in the receiving tank into the sewage tank through the drainage pipe; the method further includes:

[0037] During the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the suction motor is controlled to be in an on state so as to suck the liquid in the accommodating tank into the sewage tank through the drainage pipe.

[0038] In this application, the drainage pipe provides a dedicated channel for efficiently transferring the liquid in the storage tank to the sewage tank, ensuring that the waste liquid can be removed quickly and smoothly. In this way, by setting up the drainage pipe and the cooperation of the suction motor, the timely extraction of the liquid in the storage tank is ensured, preventing excessive liquid accumulation, and improving the efficiency and smoothness of the self-cleaning process. In addition, the timely removal of the liquid in the storage tank can also prevent sewage from overflowing and polluting the surrounding environment.

[0039] It should be noted that the provision of drainage pipes can also simplify the liquid management structure inside the cleaning base station and reduce the complex pipeline layout.

[0040] Optionally, a drainage pipe is used to connect the accommodating tank and the cleaning chamber; during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the suction motor is controlled to be in an on state to suck the liquid in the accommodating tank into the sewage tank through the drainage pipe, including:

[0041] In response to a self-cleaning instruction, a cleaning liquid is supplied to the receiving tank and the cleaning cavity to perform self-cleaning on the auxiliary cleaning member and the cleaning member;

[0042] The suction motor is controlled to start to suck the liquid in the cleaning chamber and the accommodating tank into the sewage tank.

[0043] Therefore, through the setting of the drainage pipe, the auxiliary cleaning parts and the cleaning parts can be self-cleaned at the same time, and the auxiliary cleaning parts and the cleaning parts can be cleaned at the same time, and the waste liquid can be extracted in time, which not only shortens the cleaning cycle and improves work efficiency, but also prevents liquid accumulation. In addition, the above process responds to the self-cleaning instruction, automatically provides cleaning liquid to the accommodating tank and the cleaning chamber, and starts the suction motor to extract waste liquid, realizing full automation of the cleaning process, reducing manual intervention, and improving convenience of use and user experience.

[0044] Optionally, the drainage pipe is connected to the suction port corresponding to the cleaning chamber; during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the suction motor is controlled to be in an on state to suck the liquid in the accommodating tank into the sewage tank through the drainage pipe, including:

[0045] During the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the liquid in the accommodating tank is sucked into the sewage tank through the drainage pipe and the suction port in sequence by the suction motor.

[0046] Since the drainage pipe is directly connected to the suction port corresponding to the cleaning chamber, the flow path of the liquid is simplified, making the flow path of the liquid more direct and reducing possible blockage and accumulation problems. It not only improves the liquid transmission efficiency, but also reduces the maintenance requirements and costs of the cleaning system. Therefore, through the dedicated drainage pipe and suction port, the waste liquid can be quickly and effectively transferred from the storage tank to the sewage tank, ensuring the high efficiency of the cleaning process. In addition, the design of the drainage pipe and the suction port allows the cleaning system to start the self-cleaning of the cleaning parts and the auxiliary cleaning parts according to specific needs. The self-cleaning processes of the two do not interfere with each other, which improves the flexibility of application.

[0047] Optionally, the cleaning base station further includes a hot air generator, which is used to provide a hot air flow into the accommodating tank; the method further includes:

[0048] Control the water pump assembly and the suction motor assembly to be in a closed state;

[0049] The hot air generator is controlled to start and provide hot air flow into the accommodating tank to dry the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0050] In this way, since the hot air flow provided by the hot air generator can quickly evaporate residual moisture, by controlling the hot air generator to turn on, the drying time is greatly shortened and the overall cleaning and drying efficiency is improved. Moreover, during the drying process, controlling the water pump assembly and the suction motor assembly to turn off can not only prevent new liquid from entering the storage tank during the drying process, thereby avoiding liquid circulation affecting the drying effect, but also avoid unnecessary energy consumption and ensure efficient use of energy.

[0051] In addition, the hot air generator can achieve rapid drying of the auxiliary cleaning parts, which can effectively prevent the growth of mold and bacteria in a humid environment and maintain the hygiene and safety of the auxiliary cleaning parts. Rapid drying also means that the auxiliary cleaning parts can be put into use more quickly, thereby improving the availability and work efficiency of the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0052] Optionally, the cleaning base station further includes a heating component, and the cleaning device further includes a suction motor, which is further configured to draw heat from the heating component into the receiving tank to achieve a flow of hot air flow in the receiving tank; the method further includes:

[0053] When the water pump assembly is controlled to be in the on state, the heating assembly and the suction motor are also controlled to be in the on state, so that the suction motor draws the heat of the heating assembly into the accommodating tank in the form of airflow to perform thermal cleaning on the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0054] Therefore, during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning part, the liquid in the storage tank can be heated through the cooperation of the heating component and the suction motor, or directly act on the surface of the auxiliary cleaning part. The high temperature characteristics of hot water or hot air flow can be used to accelerate the thermal motion between molecules, making stubborn grease and oil stains easier to dissolve, and then more effectively dissolve the dirt on the auxiliary cleaning part. After flushing with hot water during the self-cleaning process, the stubborn stains on the auxiliary cleaning part can be effectively removed, reducing the time required for cleaning and improving the cleaning effect and efficiency.

[0055] In addition, when the hot air generator is damaged or the cleaning system has no drying function, the combination of the heating component and the suction motor can be used as an emergency alternative to ensure that the cleaning system can still operate normally and realize the hot cleaning function. By providing a backup hot air flow generation method, the reliability of the cleaning system can be improved.

[0056] Optionally, the cleaning base station further includes a hot air generator, the hot air generator including a heating component and a fan, the fan being used to blow the heat of the heating component toward the receiving tank in the form of airflow; the method further includes:

[0057] During the cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the hot air generator is controlled to start and provide a hot air flow into the accommodating tank to perform thermal cleaning on the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0058] In this way, in the present application, thermal cleaning of the auxiliary cleaning parts can also be achieved based on the hot air generator. Through thermal cleaning, not only can the cleaning process be accelerated, the time required for cleaning be reduced, and work efficiency be improved, but the decontamination ability of the auxiliary cleaning parts can also be enhanced, making the cleaning process more efficient, especially when removing stubborn stains. In addition, thermal cleaning also helps to kill bacteria and microorganisms, and maintain the hygiene and safety of the auxiliary cleaning parts. Therefore, the liquid in the storage tank is heated by a hot air generator, or directly acts on the surface of the auxiliary cleaning parts, which greatly improves the cleaning effect and cleaning efficiency.

[0059] Optionally, the cleaning base station further includes a hot air generator, the hot air generator including a heating component and a fan, the fan being used to blow the heat of the heating component toward the receiving tank in the form of airflow, and the method further includes:

[0060] Control the water pump assembly to shut down;

[0061] The heating component and the fan are controlled to be in an open state to blow the hot air flow toward the accommodating tank to dry the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0062] Therefore, compared with natural air drying, drying by providing hot air flow through heating components and fans makes drying more efficient in terms of time and energy consumption. In particular, the hot air flow can quickly evaporate residual moisture, greatly shortening the drying time, which means that the auxiliary cleaning parts can be put into use more quickly, thereby improving the turnover efficiency of the auxiliary cleaning parts. In addition, through rapid drying, it can also effectively prevent the growth of mold and bacteria in a humid environment, maintain the hygiene and safety of the auxiliary cleaning parts, and extend the service life of the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0063] Optionally, the heating component includes a first heating wire, and the fan transports heat from the first heating wire to the cleaning chamber in the form of airflow through the ventilation channel. The accommodating tank has a first air outlet, and the first air outlet is connected to the ventilation channel. The method further includes:

[0064] The fan and the first heating wire are controlled to start, so as to blow the hot air flow into the accommodating tank through the first air outlet.

[0065] Therefore, through the combination of the first heating wire and the fan, a hot air flow can be quickly generated and transported, ensuring that the hot air flow can provide hot air flow into the receiving tank, simplifying the internal structure of the cleaning base station, saving costs and space. In addition, the rapid generation and transportation of hot air flow also helps to accelerate the cleaning and drying process, and improves the efficiency of heat treatment.

[0066] Optionally, the accommodating tank has a second air outlet, the heating assembly includes a first heating wire and a second heating wire, the fan transports heat from the first heating wire to the cleaning chamber in the form of airflow through the ventilation channel, and the fan transports heat from the second heating wire to the accommodating tank in the form of airflow through at least the second air outlet; the method further includes:

[0067] At least the fan and the second heating wire are controlled to start, so as to blow the hot air flow into the accommodating tank through the second air outlet.

[0068] Therefore, by controlling the heating of the first heating wire and the second heating wire separately, the heating needs can be flexibly managed and the operational flexibility is improved. Among them, the second heating wire is used to heat the receiving tank, which can ensure a fast and effective supply of hot air flow and improve the heating efficiency. The design of the second air outlet ensures that the hot air flow is effectively transported to the receiving tank, providing a stable heating effect.

[0069] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0070] During the drying process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to rotate, and the rotation speed of the auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to decrease to a preset rotation speed.

[0071] Therefore, lowering the rotation speed can make the auxiliary cleaning parts heated more evenly in the hot air flow, thereby achieving a more uniform drying effect and avoiding local overheating or undrying. Uniform heating also helps to accelerate the evaporation of moisture, thereby shortening the overall drying time and improving the turnover efficiency of the auxiliary cleaning parts. In this way, by optimizing the rotation speed and heat distribution, the ideal drying effect can be achieved in a shorter time, reducing energy consumption, and a faster and more efficient drying process can also reduce waiting time, thereby improving user satisfaction and convenience of use.

[0072] Optionally, the cleaning device further includes a suction motor; and the method further includes:

[0073] The suction motor is controlled to be in an on state so that the suction motor can suck the heat of the heating component into the accommodating tank in the form of airflow.

[0074] In this way, since the suction motor can also transfer heat into the storage tank, the temperature in the storage tank can be increased more quickly, accelerating the cleaning or drying process, thereby improving the heating efficiency. Therefore, the use of dual heat sources increases the heat supply, allowing the cleaning system to reach the required temperature in a shorter time, thereby improving the overall efficiency. In addition, the air flow is extracted by the suction motor, so that the heat can be evenly distributed in the storage tank, ensuring that all parts of the auxiliary cleaning parts that need to be heated receive consistent heat treatment, avoiding local overheating or insufficient heating.

[0075] In a second aspect, the present application provides a self-cleaning device for an equipment, which is applied to a cleaning system, wherein the cleaning system includes a cleaning device and a cleaning base station; the cleaning device includes a floor brush assembly and a cleaning member and an auxiliary cleaning member provided on the floor brush assembly, wherein the auxiliary cleaning member is located behind the cleaning member with respect to the forward direction of the floor brush assembly; the cleaning base station includes a cleaning cavity and a receiving groove, wherein the cleaning cavity is used to receive the cleaning member, and the receiving groove is used to receive the auxiliary cleaning member; the device includes:

[0076] a first control module, configured to control the water pump assembly to supply cleaning liquid into the accommodating tank when the cleaning device is located on the cleaning base station and responds to a self-cleaning instruction of the auxiliary cleaning member;

[0077] The second control module is used to control the auxiliary cleaning member to rotate so as to clean the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0078] In a third aspect, the present application provides a cleaning system, comprising a cleaning device and a cleaning base station; the cleaning device comprises a floor brush assembly and a cleaning member and an auxiliary cleaning member disposed on the floor brush assembly, wherein the auxiliary cleaning member is located behind the cleaning member with respect to the forward direction of the floor brush assembly; the cleaning base station comprises a cleaning cavity and a receiving groove, wherein the cleaning cavity is used to receive the cleaning member, and the receiving groove is used to receive the auxiliary cleaning member;

[0080] It should be noted that the second and third aspects of this application correspond to the technical solutions of the first aspect of this application, and the beneficial effects achieved by each aspect and the corresponding feasible implementation methods are similar, which will not be repeated here.

[0081] In summary, the present application provides a self-cleaning method, device and cleaning system for a cleaning device. Since a cleaning member and an auxiliary cleaning member are provided on the floor brush assembly of the cleaning device, and the auxiliary cleaning member is located behind the cleaning member, the auxiliary cleaning member is self-cleaned by providing a receiving groove for accommodating the auxiliary cleaning member on the cleaning base station. Specifically, after the auxiliary cleaning member is located on the cleaning base station, if there is a need for self-cleaning of the auxiliary cleaning member, the water pump assembly is controlled to open in response to the self-cleaning instruction to deliver cleaning liquid into the receiving groove, directly contacting the auxiliary cleaning member, and the cleaning liquid can effectively soften and dissolve the dirt attached to the auxiliary cleaning member. Furthermore, the auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to rotate so that the auxiliary cleaning member is rinsed in the receiving groove, and the auxiliary cleaning member can generate friction with the wall surface of the receiving groove during the rotation process, and can squeeze the auxiliary cleaning member so that the dirt on its surface and inside can be effectively peeled off and removed. Further, combined with the collision between the auxiliary cleaning member and the cleaning liquid during the rotation process, the auxiliary cleaning member can be cleaned more thoroughly, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0094] The above drawings illustrate specific embodiments of the present application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and the textual description are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way, but rather to illustrate the concepts of the present application to those skilled in the art by reference to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0095] To facilitate the clear description of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, in the embodiments of the present application, words such as "first" and "second" are used to distinguish between identical or similar items with substantially the same functions and effects. For example, the first device and the second device are merely used to distinguish between different devices and do not limit their order. Those skilled in the art will understand that words such as "first" and "second" do not limit the quantity or execution order, and words such as "first" and "second" do not necessarily mean that they are different.

[0096] It should be noted that, in this application, words such as "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations, or descriptions. Any embodiment or design described in this application as "exemplary" or "for example" should not be construed as being preferred or advantageous over other embodiments or designs. Rather, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a concrete manner.

[0097] In this application, "at least one" means one or more, and "more" means two or more. "And / or" describes the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone, where A and B can be singular or plural. The character " / " generally indicates that the previous and next associated objects are in an "or" relationship. "At least one of the following items" or similar expressions refers to any combination of these items, including any combination of single items or plural items. For example, at least one of a, b, or c can mean: a, b, c, ab, ac, bc, or abc, where a, b, c can be single or multiple.

[0098] During the operation of cleaning equipment, rags and other executive parts will come into contact with a large amount of dirt and liquid. If these stains are not removed in time, they will gradually accumulate on the executive parts. The long-term accumulation of stains will not only reduce the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning equipment, but may also cause the rags to mold, produce odors, and even breed bacteria.

[0099] In response to the above problems, the present application provides a self-cleaning method for a cleaning device. Since a cleaning part and an auxiliary cleaning part are provided on the floor brush assembly of the cleaning device, and the auxiliary cleaning part is located behind the cleaning part, the auxiliary cleaning part is self-cleaned by providing a receiving groove for accommodating the auxiliary cleaning part on the cleaning base station. When the cleaning device is located on the cleaning base station and receives a self-cleaning instruction of the auxiliary cleaning part, the cleaning system can start the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning part, that is, control the water pump assembly to provide cleaning liquid into the receiving groove to ensure that the auxiliary cleaning part has sufficient cleaning liquid for cleaning during the cleaning process, and control the rotation of the auxiliary cleaning part to effectively clean the auxiliary cleaning part. This process effectively removes dirt and liquid attached to the auxiliary cleaning part through the combination of mechanical movement and cleaning liquid. Therefore, by providing cleaning liquid into the receiving groove and controlling the rotation of the auxiliary cleaning part, the dirt on the auxiliary cleaning part is effectively removed, which not only avoids the accumulation of dirt on the auxiliary cleaning part, but also improves the cleaning efficiency.

[0100] It is understandable that the above-mentioned self-cleaning process is performed regularly to prevent the auxiliary cleaning parts from getting moldy, generating odors, and breeding bacteria, thereby increasing the service life of the cleaning equipment.

[0101] It should be noted that, in the present application, the execution element can be understood as a feasible way of implementing the auxiliary cleaning element.

[0102] Optionally, the self-cleaning method of the cleaning device provided in this application is applied to a cleaning system, illustratively, Figure 1 This is a partial structural block diagram of a cleaning system provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the cleaning system 300 includes a cleaning device 100 and a cleaning base station 200; the cleaning device 100 includes a floor brush assembly 110 and a cleaning member 101 and an auxiliary cleaning member 102 arranged on the floor brush assembly 110, and the cleaning base station 200 includes a cleaning chamber 201 and a receiving groove 202, the cleaning chamber 201 is used to accommodate the cleaning member 101, and the receiving groove 202 is used to accommodate the auxiliary cleaning member 102.

[0103] It is understandable that the cleaning part 101 can be a roller brush, and the auxiliary cleaning part 102 can be a side rag plate, a roller rag or a crawler rag, etc. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific component types corresponding to the cleaning part 101 and the auxiliary cleaning part 102.

[0104] For example, Figure 2 A schematic side view of a partial structure of a cleaning system provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown as follows: Figure 2As shown, the cleaning device 100 includes a cleaning member 101 and an auxiliary cleaning member 102 arranged on the floor brush assembly. During the operation of the cleaning device 100, the cleaning member 101 can rotate around its axis, and the cleaning base station 200 includes a cleaning chamber 201 and a receiving groove 202, which are used to realize self-cleaning of the cleaning member 101 and the auxiliary cleaning member 102.

[0105] Based on the forward direction of the floor brush assembly 110, the auxiliary cleaning member 102 is located behind the cleaning member 101, and the position relationship is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the bottom structure of a cleaning device provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 3 In the embodiment, the auxiliary cleaning member 102 has at least an initial position A and a first position B. When the auxiliary cleaning member 102 is at the initial position A, there is a gap between the auxiliary cleaning member 102 and the surface to be cleaned. When the auxiliary cleaning member 102 is at the first position B, the auxiliary cleaning member 102 contacts the surface to be cleaned and can clean the surface to be cleaned.

[0106] Optionally, when the auxiliary cleaning member 102 is at the first position B, it can extend at least partially out of the outside of the floor brush assembly 110 along the axial direction of the cleaning member 101. For example, the first position can be a position about 20 mm beyond the side of the floor brush assembly 110. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific position of the first position.

[0107] Optionally, the auxiliary cleaning member 102 also has a third position, and the third position and the initial position are located in the same plane in the vertical direction. The interference fit of the auxiliary cleaning member 102 with the accommodating groove 202 in the third position and the initial position is different. For example, the interference fit of the auxiliary cleaning member 102 with the accommodating groove 202 in the third position is greater than the interference fit of the auxiliary cleaning member 102 with the accommodating groove 202 in the initial position, that is, the auxiliary cleaning member 102 moves downward, so that the auxiliary cleaning member 102 can reciprocate up and down.

[0108] It is understandable that if the interference amount of the auxiliary cleaning member 102 with the accommodating groove 202 when in the third position is smaller than the interference amount of the auxiliary cleaning member 102 with the accommodating groove 202 when in the initial position, the auxiliary cleaning member 102 moves upward.

[0109] Optional, Figure 4 A top view of a cleaning base station provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 4 As shown, Figure 3 The position of the cleaning device shown corresponds to the cleaning base station 200 . The cleaning base station 200 includes a cleaning chamber 201 and a receiving tank 202 . The receiving tank 202 is located at the rear of the cleaning chamber 201 .

[0122] Optional, Figure 5 A schematic diagram of a partial structure of a cleaning base station provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the cleaning base station 200 has Figure 4 In addition to the structure shown, the cleaning base station 200 also includes a hot air generator, which includes a heating component and a fan 203. The heating component includes a first heating wire 206.

[0124] Optionally, the first heating wire 206 is located below the cleaning chamber 201 , and the second heating wire 205 is located below the accommodating groove 202 . The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the deployment positions of the first heating wire 206 and the second heating wire 205 .

[0125] For example, Figure 6 A schematic diagram of an application scenario provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, this application scenario can be applied to a home scene. Taking the cleaning device 100 as a floor scrubber as an example, the application scenario includes a floor scrubber and a cleaning base station 200. The floor scrubber includes a floor brush assembly and cleaning parts and auxiliary cleaning parts arranged on the floor brush assembly. The cleaning base station 200 includes a cleaning cavity and a receiving groove. The cleaning cavity is used to accommodate the cleaning parts, and the receiving groove is used to accommodate the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0126] When the floor scrubber needs to return to the cleaning base station 200 for self-cleaning, the floor scrubber is placed on the cleaning base station 200. When the floor scrubber is on the cleaning base station 200 and receives a self-cleaning instruction for the auxiliary cleaning parts, the water pump assembly is controlled to provide cleaning liquid into the receiving tank in response to the self-cleaning instruction. Accordingly, the auxiliary cleaning parts can also be controlled to rotate to clean the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0127] Optionally, during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning part, the cleaning part may perform self-cleaning at the same time, or may not perform self-cleaning, or the auxiliary cleaning part and the cleaning part may perform self-cleaning respectively and successively. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit whether the cleaning part performs self-cleaning during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning part.

[0128] Optionally, after the auxiliary cleaning parts have finished cleaning, a drying process may be performed.

[0129] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific application scenarios. The above is only an example. Optionally, the cleaning device 100 can be any automatic cleaning device with cleaning functions, such as a mopping robot, a floor washing robot, a sweeping and mopping robot, etc.

[0130] Figure 7 A schematic diagram of a self-cleaning method for a cleaning device provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, the self-cleaning method of the cleaning device is applied to Figure 1 The cleaning system shown; the self-cleaning method of the cleaning device comprises the following steps:

[0131] S701 : When the cleaning device is located on the cleaning base station and responds to a self-cleaning instruction of the auxiliary cleaning member, control the water pump assembly to supply cleaning liquid into the accommodating tank.

[0132] In an embodiment of the present application, the self-cleaning instruction can be automatically triggered by a preset program, that is, after the cleaning device returns to the cleaning base station, if it is determined that there is a need for self-cleaning, the self-cleaning instruction is automatically triggered. The self-cleaning instruction can also be manually triggered by the user based on the operation on the terminal device. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the triggering process of the self-cleaning instruction.

[0133] The requirement for self-cleaning is determined to include at least one of the following situations:

[0134] The degree of dirtiness of the auxiliary cleaning part is greater than a first threshold;

[0135] Responding to user needs;

[0136] The cleaning area and / or cleaning time of the auxiliary cleaning member is greater than a second threshold.

[0137] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the sizes of the first threshold and the second threshold, which can be set based on actual application scenario requirements or product performance.

[0138] In this step, after the self-cleaning instruction is triggered, the cleaning system controls the water pump assembly to turn on, so that the water pump assembly extracts cleaning liquid from a liquid storage container such as a water tank and transports it to the receiving tank of the cleaning base station, ensuring that the cleaning liquid can fully contact the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0139] S702: Control the auxiliary cleaning member to rotate to clean the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0140] In an embodiment of the present application, the rotation of the auxiliary cleaning member can generate mechanical friction, which helps to peel off and remove dirt on the surface. In this way, the rotation of the auxiliary cleaning member combined with the action of the cleaning liquid can more effectively clean the auxiliary cleaning member, wherein the role of the cleaning liquid is to soften and dissolve the dirt attached to the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0141] For example, after the cleaning device is located at the cleaning base station and receives a self-cleaning instruction, the cleaning system automatically controls the water pump assembly to open and delivers the cleaning liquid into the storage tank. Correspondingly, the auxiliary cleaning parts can also be controlled to rotate to effectively remove dirt on the surface through mechanical friction. In this way, under the combined action of rotation and cleaning liquid, the dirt is decomposed and flows into the storage tank along with the cleaning liquid.

[0142] It should be noted that the existing cleaning equipment is unable to clean the auxiliary cleaning parts in time or simply clean the auxiliary cleaning parts when cleaning the surface to be cleaned. The above methods not only have poor cleaning effects but also have low cleaning efficiency, which makes the auxiliary cleaning parts prone to breeding bacteria, generating odors, and even mildew. Based on this, the present application provides a receiving groove at a position corresponding to the auxiliary cleaning parts on the cleaning base station, so that the auxiliary cleaning parts can be self-cleaned when the cleaning equipment is placed on the cleaning base station after use. Specifically, after the auxiliary cleaning parts are on the cleaning base station, if there is a need for the auxiliary cleaning parts to self-clean, After the self-cleaning instruction, the water pump assembly is controlled to open to deliver the cleaning liquid into the receiving tank, directly contacting the auxiliary cleaning parts. The cleaning liquid can effectively soften and dissolve the dirt attached to the auxiliary cleaning parts. Furthermore, the auxiliary cleaning parts are controlled to rotate so that the auxiliary cleaning parts can be rinsed in the receiving tank, and the auxiliary cleaning parts can generate friction with the wall of the receiving tank during the rotation process, which can squeeze the auxiliary cleaning parts so that the dirt on the surface and inside can be effectively peeled off and removed. Further, combined with the collision between the cleaning liquid and the auxiliary cleaning parts during the rotation process, the auxiliary cleaning parts can be cleaned more thoroughly, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0143] It is understandable that by regularly self-cleaning the auxiliary cleaning parts, it can not only prevent dirt accumulation and ensure that the cleaning equipment can achieve the ideal cleaning effect every time it is used, but also prevent the formation of mold and odor, and reduce the possibility of bacterial growth, thereby ensuring the hygiene and safety of the cleaning equipment.

[0144] Optionally, when the cleaning device is located on the cleaning base station and responds to a self-cleaning instruction of the auxiliary cleaning member, controlling the water pump assembly to provide cleaning liquid into the accommodating tank includes:

[0145] When the cleaning device is located on the cleaning base station and responds to a self-cleaning instruction of the auxiliary cleaning member, at least one of the first water pump and the second water pump is controlled to start and supply cleaning liquid into the accommodating tank.

[0146] Exemplarily, when the cleaning device is located on the cleaning base station and receives a self-cleaning instruction from the auxiliary cleaning part, the cleaning system starts the self-cleaning process. Furthermore, according to the application scenario requirements or user settings, the first water pump and / or the second water pump are controlled to start to provide cleaning liquid into the receiving tank. This design allows the use of one or two water pumps according to different needs and conditions to ensure the supply of cleaning liquid.

[0147] In some examples, the water supply per unit time of the first water pump and the second water pump may be inconsistent. In one example, the water supply per unit time of the second water pump is greater than the water supply per unit time of the first water pump.

[0148] Therefore, this dual water pump design provides higher flexibility and stability, allowing the cleaning system to choose to use one or two water pumps according to the specific situation. For example, when one water pump fails, the other water pump can still provide cleaning fluid, thereby improving the flexibility and stability of the cleaning system. The combined use of the two water pumps can ensure an adequate supply of cleaning fluid, thereby enhancing the cleaning effect, especially when a large amount of cleaning fluid is required. In addition, choosing to start the first water pump or the second water pump according to demand, or starting both water pumps at the same time, can not only more flexibly control energy consumption, thereby saving energy, but also achieve synergy between the two, thereby optimizing the delivery path and efficiency of the cleaning fluid.

[0149] Optionally, controlling the rotation of the auxiliary cleaning member includes:

[0150] The auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to rotate at an initial position to clean the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0151] Illustratively, during the self-cleaning process, the auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to rotate at an initial position. At the initial position, the auxiliary cleaning member removes dirt and residues attached to its surface through rotation and the action of the cleaning fluid.

[0152] Among them, the auxiliary cleaning part is in the initial position for cleaning and can rotate more freely to ensure that its surface is fully cleaned. In addition, when cleaning in the initial position, the auxiliary cleaning part is not hindered by other components and can rotate at a suitable speed and angle to avoid conflict with the receiving groove. This position-optimized cleaning process improves the efficiency and effect of self-cleaning.

[0153] Optionally, when the auxiliary cleaning member moves from the initial position to the first position, the auxiliary cleaning member has a first rotation direction, and during the process of the auxiliary cleaning member performing self-cleaning at the initial position, the auxiliary cleaning member has a second rotation direction, and the first rotation direction is opposite to the second rotation direction. Therefore, during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the auxiliary cleaning member can be controlled to rotate toward the second rotation direction at the initial position.

[0154] In this way, by rotating in the direction opposite to the working direction during the self-cleaning process, the dirt that is difficult to remove on the surface of the auxiliary cleaning parts can be effectively loosened and removed, because the dirt is easier to be removed under the action of forces in different directions. Therefore, by rotating in the direction opposite to the working direction during the self-cleaning process, the cleaning fluid and mechanical friction can be more efficiently utilized to enhance the self-cleaning effect.

[0155] Optionally, controlling the rotation of the auxiliary cleaning member includes:

[0156] The auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to rotate at the first position to clean the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0157] Illustratively, during the self-cleaning process, the auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to rotate at a first position. At the first position, the auxiliary cleaning member removes dirt and residues attached to its surface through rotation and the action of the cleaning fluid.

[0158] Among them, the auxiliary cleaning part is in the first position for cleaning, and can rotate more freely to ensure that its surface is fully cleaned. In addition, when cleaning in the first position, the auxiliary cleaning part is not hindered by other components and can rotate at a suitable speed and angle to avoid conflict with the receiving groove. This position-optimized cleaning process improves the efficiency and effect of self-cleaning.

[0159] Optionally, when the auxiliary cleaning member moves from the initial position to the first position, the auxiliary cleaning member has a first rotation direction, and during the process of the auxiliary cleaning member performing self-cleaning at the first position, the auxiliary cleaning member has the first rotation direction. Therefore, during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the auxiliary cleaning member can be controlled to rotate toward the first rotation direction at the first position.

[0160] In this way, by rotating in the same direction as the working direction during the self-cleaning process, the dirt that is difficult to remove on the surface of the auxiliary cleaning member can also be effectively loosened and removed.

[0161] Whether the auxiliary cleaning member performs self-cleaning at the first position or the initial position depends on the depth of the accommodating groove, and the position of the auxiliary cleaning member for self-cleaning is set according to the depth of the accommodating groove.

[0162] Optionally, the cleaning device further includes a suction motor; the suction motor is used to provide suction force for extracting the liquid in the accommodating tank; and the method further includes:

[0163] During the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the suction motor is controlled to be in an on state to suck the liquid in the receiving tank into the sewage tank on the cleaning device;

[0164] In the process of self-cleaning of the auxiliary cleaning part, the suction time of the suction motor is less than or equal to the liquid filling time of the water pump assembly.

[0165] In an embodiment of the present application, the suction time of the suction motor is set to be less than or equal to the liquid filling time of the water pump assembly. This time design can ensure that the sewage can be pumped away in time during the cleaning liquid supply process to avoid excessive liquid in the storage tank.

[0166] Illustratively, during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the water pump assembly provides cleaning liquid into the receiving tank. At the same time, the suction motor is controlled to turn on so that the sewage in the receiving tank can be promptly pumped out after the cleaning liquid completes cleaning the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0167] Therefore, timely extraction by the suction motor prevents excessive accumulation of liquid in the storage tank, maintains the smoothness of the cleaning process, and ensures full utilization of the cleaning liquid and timely treatment of sewage. In addition, timely extraction of sewage can also prevent liquid overflow in the storage tank and avoid pollution to the cleaning base station and the surrounding environment.

[0168] It should be noted that the above-mentioned automated liquid management can also reduce the user's operational complexity, that is, the user does not need to manually handle sewage, which greatly improves the intelligence level of the cleaning equipment and enhances the user experience.

[0169] Optionally, controlling the water pump assembly to provide cleaning liquid into the receiving tank includes:

[0170] Controlling the first water pump and the second water pump to be in an open state, and controlling the water pump assembly to supply cleaning liquid into the containing tank;

[0171] The suction motor is controlled to be in an on state to suck the liquid in the accommodating tank into the sewage tank on the cleaning equipment.

[0172] In this step, during the self-cleaning process, the two water pumps are turned on at the same time to ensure that the cleaning liquid is fully and quickly delivered to the storage tank. While the two water pumps provide cleaning liquid, the suction motor is also turned on to extract the liquid in the storage tank into the sewage tank on the cleaning equipment. The liquid includes cleaning liquid and the dirt that has been washed off.

[0173] In this way, by working simultaneously with two water pumps, a rapid and sufficient supply of cleaning liquid can be ensured, which improves the efficiency of the self-cleaning process. The synchronous start-up of the suction motor also ensures the timely treatment of the liquid in the storage tank, prevents excessive accumulation of liquid, and maintains the smooth progress of the cleaning process. Through effective liquid management, the overflow of liquid in the storage tank is also prevented, avoiding pollution of the cleaning base station and the surrounding environment, and improving the user experience.

[0174] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0175] Control the first water pump to switch from the on state to the off state, and control the second water pump and the suction motor to remain in the on state;

[0176] The rotation speed of the auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to be reduced to a preset rotation speed so as to flush the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0177] In an embodiment of the present application, controlling the rotation speed of the auxiliary cleaning member to be reduced to a preset rotation speed helps to evenly distribute the cleaning liquid at various positions of the auxiliary cleaning member, ensuring that each part can be fully wetted and cleaned, wherein the preset rotation speed can be half of the original rotation speed of the auxiliary cleaning member or lower. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the size of the preset rotation speed.

[0178] It is understandable that controlling the rotation speed of the auxiliary cleaning member to decrease can also help reduce the generation of noise.

[0179] For example, after providing sufficient cleaning fluid, the first water pump can be turned off to save resources. At this time, the second water pump can continue to provide cleaning fluid to flush the auxiliary cleaning parts, while the suction motor continues to extract sewage to ensure the presence of an appropriate amount of liquid in the storage tank and timely processing.

[0180] Therefore, by turning off the first water pump, unnecessary cleaning liquid supply can be reduced and resources can be saved, while ensuring the continuous operation of the second water pump and the suction motor, and ensuring the liquid flushing of the auxiliary cleaning parts and timely treatment of sewage. By reducing the rotation speed of the auxiliary cleaning parts, the auxiliary cleaning liquid can stay on the surface of the auxiliary cleaning parts for a longer time and be evenly wetted, ensuring that every part of the auxiliary cleaning parts can be thoroughly cleaned, avoiding cleaning dead corners, and thus enhancing the cleaning effect. In this way, through the above-mentioned optimized cleaning process, the auxiliary cleaning parts can be kept to provide ideal performance every time they are used.

[0181] Optionally, the auxiliary cleaning member has at least an initial position and a third position, wherein a gap exists between the auxiliary cleaning member and the surface to be cleaned when the auxiliary cleaning member is in the initial position, the third position and the initial position are located in the same plane in the vertical direction, and the interference fit of the auxiliary cleaning member with the accommodating groove is different in the third position and the initial position; cleaning the auxiliary cleaning member includes:

[0182] The auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to move between the initial position and the third position, and the interference between the auxiliary cleaning member and the accommodating groove is adjusted to rinse the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0183] Illustratively, during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning part, the auxiliary cleaning part can be controlled to move up and down between the initial position and the third position. This movement adjusts the interference between the auxiliary cleaning part and the receiving groove, that is, the tightness of the contact. Then, through the up and down movement, the auxiliary cleaning part is rinsed in the receiving groove. This dynamic adjustment can ensure that the cleaning liquid can fully contact all parts of the auxiliary cleaning part, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0184] Specifically, the auxiliary cleaning member can be controlled to rotate forward and reverse to achieve up and down movement between the initial position and the third position. The auxiliary cleaning member can also be directly controlled to move up and down between the initial position and the third position by its driving member.

[0185] It should be noted that when adjusting the interference fit between the auxiliary cleaning part and the accommodating groove, it is also necessary to control the current load of the circuit in the entire cleaning equipment to be within the safe current load range, because if the interference fit is too large, the current load may become higher, thereby causing a fault or triggering overcurrent protection.

[0186] Therefore, during the cleaning process, by controlling the auxiliary cleaning member to move up and down between the initial position and the third position, the contact mode between the auxiliary cleaning member and the accommodating groove is changed, ensuring that the cleaning liquid can more effectively cover and clean the surface of the auxiliary cleaning member, which helps to remove stubborn dirt and residues. Since the interference fit can be adjusted by the up and down movement, the cleaning liquid can be evenly distributed on the surface of the auxiliary cleaning member, avoiding cleaning dead corners and improving the comprehensiveness and uniformity of cleaning.

[0187] In addition, dynamic adjustment of the interference fit can also reduce unnecessary friction during the cleaning process, reduce wear, and thus extend the service life of auxiliary cleaning parts and reduce the frequency of replacement.

[0188] Optionally, in another example, during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the auxiliary cleaning member can be controlled to rotate forward and reverse at the initial position, so that the auxiliary cleaning member can fully contact with the cleaning liquid, thereby achieving efficient cleaning of the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0189] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0190] The cleaning device is located at the cleaning base station and performs a self-cleaning process, wherein the cleaning member is self-cleaned and / or the auxiliary cleaning member is self-cleaned.

[0191] It should be noted that when the cleaning equipment is located at the cleaning base station and is performing self-cleaning on the auxiliary cleaning parts, the self-cleaning of the cleaning parts can also be turned on. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the order in which the two are turned on. They can be carried out simultaneously or one after another.

[0192] Optionally, when the cleaning equipment is located at the cleaning base station and is performing self-cleaning on the cleaning parts, the self-cleaning of the auxiliary cleaning parts can also be turned on, or the self-cleaning of the auxiliary cleaning parts can not be turned on. This application does not make specific restrictions on this, nor does it limit the order in which the two are turned on. It can be set based on the actual application scenario requirements.

[0193] Therefore, by self-cleaning the cleaning parts and / or auxiliary cleaning parts, it can be ensured that the cleaning parts and / or auxiliary cleaning parts are kept in a good cleaning state, wherein the self-cleaning process of the cleaning parts and the auxiliary cleaning parts can be allowed to proceed simultaneously, which can not only significantly shorten the cleaning cycle and improve the overall efficiency, but also make more effective use of water pumps and other resources. In addition, according to the specific cleaning needs and component status, it can be flexibly selected to perform self-cleaning of the cleaning parts and the auxiliary cleaning parts simultaneously or successively, providing greater operational flexibility and adaptability.

[0194] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0195] During the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the suction motor is controlled to be in an on state so as to suck the liquid in the accommodating tank into the sewage tank through the drainage pipe.

[0196] In the embodiment of the present application, the drainage pipe is used to connect the receiving tank and the sewage tank to form a channel for liquid flow. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the setting position and shape of the drainage pipe, and it can connect the receiving tank and the sewage tank.

[0197] For example, when the auxiliary cleaning member is performing self-cleaning, the suction motor is controlled to turn on to suck the liquid in the receiving tank into the sewage tank through the drainage pipe. This design ensures that the sewage generated during the cleaning process can be processed in a timely and effective manner.

[0198] In this application, the drainage pipe provides a dedicated channel for efficiently transferring the liquid in the storage tank to the sewage tank, ensuring that the waste liquid can be removed quickly and smoothly. In this way, by setting up the drainage pipe and the cooperation of the suction motor, the timely extraction of the liquid in the storage tank is ensured, preventing excessive liquid accumulation, and improving the efficiency and smoothness of the self-cleaning process. In addition, the timely removal of the liquid in the storage tank can also prevent sewage from overflowing and polluting the surrounding environment.

[0199] It should be noted that the provision of drainage pipes can also simplify the liquid management structure inside the cleaning base station and reduce the complex pipeline layout.

[0200] Optionally, during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the suction motor is controlled to be in an on state so as to suck the liquid in the receiving tank into the sewage tank through the drainage pipe, including:

[0201] In response to a self-cleaning instruction, a cleaning liquid is supplied to the receiving tank and the cleaning cavity to perform self-cleaning on the auxiliary cleaning member and the cleaning member;

[0202] The suction motor is controlled to start to suck the liquid in the cleaning chamber and the accommodating tank into the sewage tank.

[0203] In the embodiment of the present application, the drainage pipe is also used to connect the accommodating tank and the cleaning chamber to form a channel for liquid flow. In this way, the liquid in the accommodating tank is transferred from the accommodating tank and the cleaning chamber to the sewage tank through the drainage pipe.

[0204] Exemplarily, in response to a self-cleaning instruction, cleaning liquid is supplied to the receiving tank and the cleaning chamber to perform self-cleaning on the auxiliary cleaning parts and the cleaning parts. At this time, the cleaning parts can be self-cleaned at the same time as the auxiliary cleaning parts, or the cleaning parts can be self-cleaned after the auxiliary cleaning parts are self-cleaned, so as to prevent sewage from flowing through the cleaning chamber and causing contamination to the cleaning parts. Accordingly, during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning parts and the cleaning parts, the suction motor is controlled to start and the liquid in the receiving tank and the cleaning chamber is sucked into the sewage tank through the drainage pipe.

[0205] It should be noted that if after a cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning part is completed, liquid needs to be sucked into the sewage tank, but the cleaning process of the cleaning part has not yet been completed. In this case, you can wait until the cleaning process of the cleaning part is completed and then control the suction motor to start.

[0206] Therefore, through the setting of the drainage pipe, the auxiliary cleaning parts and the cleaning parts can be self-cleaned at the same time, and the auxiliary cleaning parts and the cleaning parts can be cleaned at the same time, and the waste liquid can be extracted in time, which not only shortens the cleaning cycle and improves work efficiency, but also prevents liquid accumulation. In addition, the above process responds to the self-cleaning instruction, automatically provides cleaning liquid to the accommodating tank and the cleaning chamber, and starts the suction motor to extract waste liquid, realizing full automation of the cleaning process, reducing manual intervention, and improving convenience of use and user experience.

[0207] Optionally, during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the suction motor is controlled to be in an on state so as to suck the liquid in the receiving tank into the sewage tank through the drainage pipe, including:

[0208] During the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the liquid in the accommodating tank is sucked into the sewage tank through the drainage pipe and the suction port in sequence by the suction motor.

[0209] In an embodiment of the present application, a drainage pipe is provided and connected to the suction port corresponding to the cleaning chamber. In this way, the liquid starts from the receiving tank and flows to the suction port through the drainage pipe without passing through the cleaning chamber, thereby reducing the risk of cross contamination. Moreover, by directly connecting the drainage pipe to the suction port, the flow path of the liquid is simplified, the residence time of the liquid in the cleaning system is reduced, and the liquid transmission efficiency is improved.

[0210] For example, when the cleaning device receives a self-cleaning instruction, the cleaning system starts to supply cleaning liquid to the receiving tank to perform self-cleaning on the auxiliary cleaning parts. During the self-cleaning process, the suction motor is controlled to turn on and start operating so that the liquid starts from the receiving tank, flows through the drainage pipe to the suction port, and is then transferred to the sewage tank for collection and treatment.

[0211] Since the drainage pipe is directly connected to the suction port corresponding to the cleaning chamber, the flow path of the liquid is simplified, making the flow path of the liquid more direct and reducing possible blockage and accumulation problems. It not only improves the liquid transmission efficiency, but also reduces the maintenance requirements and costs of the cleaning system. Therefore, through the dedicated drainage pipe and suction port, the waste liquid can be quickly and effectively transferred from the storage tank to the sewage tank, ensuring the high efficiency of the cleaning process. In addition, the design of the drainage pipe and the suction port allows the cleaning system to start the self-cleaning of the cleaning parts and the auxiliary cleaning parts according to specific needs. The self-cleaning processes of the two do not interfere with each other, which improves the flexibility of application.

[0212] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0213] Control the water pump assembly and the suction motor assembly to be in a closed state;

[0214] The hot air generator is controlled to start and provide hot air flow into the accommodating tank to dry the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0215] It should be noted that after completing the cleaning and rinsing process of the auxiliary cleaning parts, the cleaning system may enter a drying stage for the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0216] Exemplarily, during the drying process, the water pump assembly and the suction motor assembly are controlled to be in a closed state to ensure that no liquid flows or is extracted. Then, the hot air generator is controlled to start so that the hot air flow generated by the hot air generator is introduced into the receiving tank to act on the auxiliary cleaning parts to quickly and effectively dry the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0217] Illustratively, during the drying process, the auxiliary cleaning member may rotate at an initial position.

[0218] In this way, since the hot air flow provided by the hot air generator can quickly evaporate residual moisture, by controlling the hot air generator to turn on, the drying time is greatly shortened and the overall cleaning and drying efficiency is improved. Moreover, during the drying process, controlling the water pump assembly and the suction motor assembly to turn off can not only prevent new liquid from entering the storage tank during the drying process, thereby avoiding liquid circulation affecting the drying effect, but also avoid unnecessary energy consumption and ensure efficient use of energy.

[0219] In addition, the hot air generator can achieve rapid drying of the auxiliary cleaning parts, which can effectively prevent the growth of mold and bacteria in a humid environment and maintain the hygiene and safety of the auxiliary cleaning parts. Rapid drying also means that the auxiliary cleaning parts can be put into use more quickly, thereby improving the availability and work efficiency of the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0220] Optionally, the cleaning base station further includes a heating component, and the cleaning device further includes a suction motor, which is further configured to draw heat from the heating component into the receiving tank to achieve a flow of hot air flow in the receiving tank; the method further includes:

[0221] When the water pump assembly is controlled to be in the on state, the heating assembly and the suction motor are also controlled to be in the on state, so that the suction motor draws the heat of the heating assembly into the accommodating tank in the form of airflow to perform thermal cleaning on the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0222] It should be noted that in the present application, the hot air generator can be shared with the device used for drying. However, for a cleaning system without a drying function, or when other devices in the hot air generator are damaged and only the heating component can be used, the heat of the heating component can be sucked into the receiving tank based on a suction motor to realize the flow of hot air flow in the receiving tank, thereby playing the same role as the hot air generator.

[0223] It is understandable that if the hot air generator is not damaged, the suction motor will draw the heat of the heating component into the storage tank in the form of airflow, and cooperate with the hot air generator to provide hot airflow in the storage tank, which can increase the temperature in the storage tank more quickly, thereby accelerating the cleaning and drying process. The use of dual heat sources helps to shorten the drying time.

[0224] For example, taking the case where there is a heating component in the cleaning system and the heating component is available, during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning part, the heating component and the suction motor can be controlled to be in the on state while controlling the water pump component to be in the on state, so that the suction motor can draw the heat of the heating component into the receiving tank, heat the liquid in the receiving tank, and perform thermal cleaning on the auxiliary cleaning part.

[0225] Therefore, during the self-cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning part, the liquid in the storage tank can be heated through the cooperation of the heating component and the suction motor, or directly act on the surface of the auxiliary cleaning part. The high temperature characteristics of hot water or hot air flow can be used to accelerate the thermal motion between molecules, making stubborn grease and oil stains easier to dissolve, and then more effectively dissolve the dirt on the auxiliary cleaning part. After flushing with hot water during the self-cleaning process, the stubborn stains on the auxiliary cleaning part can be effectively removed, reducing the time required for cleaning and improving the cleaning effect and efficiency.

[0226] In addition, when the hot air generator is damaged or the cleaning system has no drying function, the combination of the heating component and the suction motor can be used as an emergency alternative to ensure that the cleaning system can still operate normally and realize the hot cleaning function. By providing a backup hot air flow generation method, the reliability of the cleaning system can be improved.

[0227] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0228] During the cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the hot air generator is controlled to start and provide a hot air flow into the accommodating tank to perform thermal cleaning on the auxiliary cleaning member.

[0229] For example, during the cleaning process of the auxiliary cleaning parts, the hot air generator is controlled to start to generate a hot air flow, that is, after the fan is started, the heat generated by the heating component is converted into a hot air flow and blown into the receiving tank. Furthermore, the hot air flow flows in the receiving tank and combines with the cleaning liquid to perform thermal cleaning on the auxiliary cleaning parts. Since the hot air flow increases the temperature of the cleaning liquid, the decontamination ability of the cleaning liquid is enhanced, thereby performing a more thorough cleaning of the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0230] In this way, in the present application, thermal cleaning of the auxiliary cleaning parts can also be achieved based on the hot air generator. Through thermal cleaning, not only can the cleaning process be accelerated, the time required for cleaning be reduced, and work efficiency be improved, but the decontamination ability of the auxiliary cleaning parts can also be enhanced, making the cleaning process more efficient, especially when removing stubborn stains. In addition, thermal cleaning also helps to kill bacteria and microorganisms, and maintain the hygiene and safety of the auxiliary cleaning parts. Therefore, the liquid in the storage tank is heated by a hot air generator, or directly acts on the surface of the auxiliary cleaning parts, which greatly improves the cleaning effect and cleaning efficiency.

[0231] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0232] Control the water pump assembly to shut down;

[0233] The heating component and the fan are controlled to be in an open state to blow the hot air flow toward the accommodating tank to dry the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0234] For example, during the drying process of the auxiliary cleaning parts, the water pump assembly is controlled to be shut down to ensure that no more cleaning liquid enters the receiving tank to avoid affecting the drying effect. Then, the heating assembly and the fan are controlled to start to convert the heat generated by the heating assembly into hot air flow and blow it into the receiving tank. Since the hot air flow flows in the receiving tank, the residual moisture on the auxiliary cleaning parts can be quickly evaporated to achieve efficient drying.

[0235] Therefore, compared with natural air drying, drying by providing hot air flow through heating components and fans makes drying more efficient in terms of time and energy consumption. In particular, the hot air flow can quickly evaporate residual moisture, greatly shortening the drying time, which means that the auxiliary cleaning parts can be put into use more quickly, thereby improving the turnover efficiency of the auxiliary cleaning parts. In addition, through rapid drying, it can also effectively prevent the growth of mold and bacteria in a humid environment, maintain the hygiene and safety of the auxiliary cleaning parts, and extend the service life of the auxiliary cleaning parts.

[0236] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0237] The fan and the first heating wire are controlled to start, so as to blow the hot air flow into the accommodating tank through the first air outlet.

[0238] Exemplarily, the cleaning system controls the start-up of the first heating wire and the fan. At this time, the first heating wire begins to generate heat, and the fan converts the heat generated by the first heating wire into hot air flow through the ventilation channel. The hot air flow is then transported to the cleaning chamber through the ventilation channel and enters the receiving tank through the first air outlet, so that the hot air flow flows in the receiving tank to heat the auxiliary cleaning parts, whether it is used for drying or hot cleaning process.

[0239] It should be noted that the first heating wire is the heating element used for drying or hot cleaning of the original cleaning element. In this embodiment, the auxiliary cleaning element is heated and can share a heating wire with the original cleaning element. This not only reduces the number of components, thereby reducing manufacturing and material costs, but also reduces the space required for cleaning the inside of the base station, and reduces the complexity of lines and connections.

[0240] Therefore, through the combination of the first heating wire and the fan, a hot air flow can be quickly generated and transported, ensuring that the hot air flow can provide hot air flow into the receiving tank, simplifying the internal structure of the cleaning base station, saving costs and space. In addition, the rapid generation and transportation of hot air flow also helps to accelerate the cleaning and drying process, and improves the efficiency of heat treatment.

[0241] Optionally, the accommodating tank has a second air outlet, the heating assembly includes a first heating wire and a second heating wire, the fan transports heat from the first heating wire to the cleaning chamber in the form of airflow through the ventilation channel, and the fan transports heat from the second heating wire to the accommodating tank in the form of airflow through at least the second air outlet; the method further includes:

[0242] At least the fan and the second heating wire are controlled to start, so as to blow the hot air flow into the accommodating tank through the second air outlet.

[0243] In the present application, a second heating wire may be added for performing heat treatment in the accommodating tank, and the heat treatment includes heat cleaning and drying.

[0244] In some embodiments, the start-up of the second heating wire and the fan is controlled so that the fan converts the heat generated by the second heating wire into hot air flow through the ventilation channel, and the hot air flow is transported to the receiving tank through the second air outlet. The hot air flow flows in the receiving tank to heat the auxiliary cleaning parts, which is suitable for drying or hot cleaning processes.

[0245] In other embodiments, the start-up of the first heating wire, the second heating wire and the fan is controlled so that the fan converts the heat generated by the first heating wire and the second heating wire into hot air flow through the ventilation channel, and the hot air flow is transported to the receiving tank through the second air outlet. The hot air flow flows in the receiving tank to heat the auxiliary cleaning parts, which is suitable for drying or hot cleaning processes. The heat of the two heating wires is superimposed to provide a higher total heat output and significantly shorten the heating time.

[0246] Optionally, if one heating wire fails, the other heating wire can still provide partial heating function, which improves the reliability of the cleaning system.

[0247] Therefore, by controlling the heating of the first heating wire and the second heating wire separately, the heating needs can be flexibly managed and the operational flexibility is improved. Among them, the second heating wire is used to heat the receiving tank, which can ensure a fast and effective supply of hot air flow and improve the heating efficiency. The design of the second air outlet ensures that the hot air flow is effectively transported to the receiving tank, providing a stable heating effect.

[0248] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0249] During the drying process of the auxiliary cleaning member, the auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to rotate, and the rotation speed of the auxiliary cleaning member is controlled to decrease to a preset rotation speed.

[0250] In the embodiment of the present application, by reducing the rotation speed, the auxiliary cleaning member can be more evenly exposed to the heat source in the hot air flow, ensuring that each part is evenly heated.

[0251] Illustratively, during the drying process, the rotation mechanism of the auxiliary cleaning part can be activated to start rotating, and the rotation speed of the auxiliary cleaning part can be further controlled to be reduced to a preset rotation speed to optimize the drying effect. The setting of the preset rotation speed can refer to the definition and description of the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.

[0252] Therefore, lowering the rotation speed can make the auxiliary cleaning parts heated more evenly in the hot air flow, thereby achieving a more uniform drying effect and avoiding local overheating or undrying. Uniform heating also helps to accelerate the evaporation of moisture, thereby shortening the overall drying time and improving the turnover efficiency of the auxiliary cleaning parts. In this way, by optimizing the rotation speed and heat distribution, the ideal drying effect can be achieved in a shorter time, reducing energy consumption, and a faster and more efficient drying process can also reduce waiting time, thereby improving user satisfaction and convenience of use.

[0253] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0254] The suction motor is controlled to be in an on state so that the suction motor can suck the heat of the heating component into the accommodating tank in the form of airflow.

[0255] It should be noted that the suction motor can also draw the heat generated by the heating component into the receiving tank to form a hot air flow in the receiving tank, which is used to assist in the heating treatment of the cleaning parts and is suitable for the cleaning or drying process. The above process is carried out simultaneously with the hot air generator providing the hot air flow to assist in heating.

[0256] In this way, since the suction motor can also transfer heat into the storage tank, the temperature in the storage tank can be increased more quickly, accelerating the cleaning or drying process, thereby improving the heating efficiency. Therefore, the use of dual heat sources increases the heat supply, allowing the cleaning system to reach the required temperature in a shorter time, thereby improving the overall efficiency. In addition, the air flow is extracted by the suction motor, so that the heat can be evenly distributed in the storage tank, ensuring that all parts of the auxiliary cleaning parts that need to be heated receive consistent heat treatment, avoiding local overheating or insufficient heating.

[0257] In combination with the above embodiments, Figure 8 The electric control logic flow chart of the self-cleaning of a cleaning device provided in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: Figure 8 As shown, the self-cleaning electrical control logic of the cleaning device includes the following process:

[0258] Step A: When the cleaning device is located on the cleaning base station and responds to the self-cleaning instruction of the auxiliary cleaning part, self-cleaning begins. At this time, the driving motor is controlled to drive the side rag plate (auxiliary cleaning part) to rotate in the opposite direction based on a voltage of 12V, that is, to rotate based on the second rotation direction. The first water pump is controlled to continuously supply water based on a voltage of 5V, and the second water pump is controlled to supply water based on a voltage of 21.6V. The second water pump is controlled to turn on the water supply for 10 seconds and then turn it off for 30 seconds. The suction motor is controlled to continuously absorb sewage based on a power of 120w.

[0259] Step B: Is the above step A executed continuously for 3 times? If so, execute the automatic flushing process, that is, the driving motor drives the side rag plate to rotate in the opposite direction based on a voltage of 6V to reduce the rotation speed of the side rag plate, ensure that all positions of the side rag plate are evenly wetted, and control the first water pump to be closed, and the second water pump continues to supply water based on a voltage of 21.6V. The suction motor continues to absorb sewage based on a power of 120w, and continues for 30s. It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the time length for the suction motor to continuously absorb sewage. The above is only an example.

[0260] It should also be noted that the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the number of times step A is performed continuously. It can be set to N times based on the application scenario requirements or the degree of dirtiness of the auxiliary cleaning parts, where N is an integer greater than 1.

[0261] Step C: After completing the rinsing process, the automatic drying process can be started. At this time, the second water pump is controlled to be closed, and the base station axial fan is controlled to blow air based on a voltage of 20V, and the resistance wire is turned on based on a power of 100w to blow hot air into the receiving tank for drying. The drying process lasts for 300s, thereby completing the self-cleaning of the cleaning equipment. It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the duration of the drying process. The above is only an example.

[0262] For example, Figure 9 A flow chart of an optional self-cleaning method for a cleaning device provided in an embodiment of the present application, taking the case where the self-cleaning and drying process of the cleaning element is not started as an example, the self-cleaning method for the cleaning device includes the following steps:

[0263] Step 1: Start the self-cleaning and drying process of the auxiliary cleaning part. At this time, the self-cleaning of the cleaning part is not running. The outward swinging mechanical arm of the auxiliary cleaning part is controlled to be in a retracted state, that is, the auxiliary cleaning part is in the initial position. The drive motor is controlled to drive the side rag disc in the opposite direction based on full power, that is, the rotation direction is opposite to that during cleaning work, and the second water pump and the first water pump suction motor are controlled to be turned on.

[0264] Among them, the second water pump is a new load added to the cleaning base station. The second water pump is a water pump that is turned on based on a voltage of 21.6V. Its corresponding start-up mode is to turn on based on full power, and the water supply is turned on for 10 seconds and then turned off for 30 seconds; the first water pump is a water pump that is turned on based on a voltage of 1.5V. The first water pump is located on the floor brush assembly, and its corresponding start-up mode is to turn on based on full power; the suction motor is a main fan that is turned on based on a power of 120w.

[0265] It should be noted that the drive motor starts at full power and runs for a period of time. The speed can be reduced later based on the noise or self-cleaning effect. This embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit this.

[0266] It should also be noted that step 1 corresponds to the logic of self-cleaning, which can be understood as the logic of automatic cleaning. After the cleaning equipment starts self-cleaning, the above two water pumps and suction motor can be turned on immediately without delay, and the total self-cleaning time is 2 minutes. Alternatively, they can be turned on one after another. The embodiment of the present application does not make specific limitations on this.

[0267] Step 2: After executing the self-cleaning logic, the automatic flushing logic can be turned on, that is, the second water pump and the suction motor are controlled to continue to be turned on, and the side rag plate continues to rotate in the opposite direction, but is turned on at half power to reduce the speed of the side rag plate. Accordingly, the first water pump needs to be controlled to be turned off.

[0268] Among them, the second water pump is turned on based on full power, and the suction motor is turned on based on a power of 120W.

[0269] It should be noted that step 2 corresponds to the logic of automatic flushing, and the total duration of automatic flushing is 30 seconds. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the duration of automatic flushing. The above is only an example description, which can be set based on the requirements of the application scenario.

[0270] Step 3: After executing the automatic flushing logic, the automatic drying logic can be turned on, that is, the heating wire and the base station axial fan are controlled to start, and the side rag plate continues to be turned on based on half power and rotates in the opposite direction. At the same time, the second water pump and the suction motor must be controlled to be turned off.

[0271] Among them, the side rag plate is turned on based on half power, which can reduce the speed to make the drying heat even and improve the drying effect; the heating wire can be a new load on the cleaning base station, which is turned on based on 220V voltage and 100W power, and is turned on at full power; the base station axial fan is turned on based on half power.

[0272] It should be noted that step 3 corresponds to the logic of automatic drying, and the total duration of automatic drying is 5 minutes. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the duration of automatic drying. The above is only an example description, which can be set based on the requirements of the application scenario.
