Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of cleaning equipment, and particularly relates to a base station, a cleaning system and an operating method of the base station. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, a dust collector equipped with an automatic dust collection base station gradually becomes an important product form of a household cleaning appliance. Compared with a traditional dust collector that only provides a manual dumping of a dust collection container, the automatic dust collection base station can automatically transfer dust in a dust cup to a dust collection cavity inside the base station after the cleaning equipment is docked, thereby reducing the risk of dust exposure and contact pollution of the user during the dust dumping process.

[0003] At the same time, in order to improve the storage experience of the product in the household scenario, some base stations further integrate the storage function of cleaning accessories, for example, a storage cavity is arranged in the base station for storing brush heads, gap suction heads and other cleaning accessories, so that the user can complete the docking, dust collection and accessory taking and placing operations in the base station, and reduce the searching cost and storage confusion caused by the scattering of accessories.

[0004] However, in the existing accessory storage type base station, the opening and closing mode of the storage cavity door is still mainly manual operation, and the door is usually arranged in a flip type, side opening type or pull-out type structure, and the user needs to directly open the door with hands and complete the accessory taking and placing. Since the accessory taking and placing is a high-frequency interactive action, and often occurs after cleaning or during cleaning, at this time, dust, stains or moisture are likely to remain on the hands of the user, and direct contact with the door will cause pollution accumulation on the outer surface of the door, which not only affects the appearance cleanliness, but also increases the frequency of subsequent wiping and maintenance. SUMMARY

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] In order to make the person skilled in the art better understand the technical solutions in the present disclosure, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by the person skilled in the art without creative labor should belong to the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0033] Unless otherwise explicitly indicated, in the entire specification and claims, the term “comprise” or its variants such as “contain” or “include” and the like will be understood to include the stated element or component, without excluding other elements or components.

[0034] It is to be understood that when an element as a preamble is referred to as being "on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or intervening elements can also be present. When an element such as a layer, region or substrate is referred to as being "connected", it means that it is directly connected to the other element or intervening elements can also be present. In the embodiments of the disclosure, the directions such as up, down, left, right, front and back are relative, and are used to explain the structure and movement of different components in the disclosure. These indications are appropriate when the components are in the positions shown in the drawings. However, if the position of the components changes, it is considered that these indications will also change accordingly.

[0035] After the gradual popularization of the dust collector product form equipped with an automatic dust collection base station, the base station gradually evolves from a single dust collection function carrier to a carrier with multiple functions such as parking, dust collection, accessory storage, etc. The inventor found that, compared with automatic dust collection, which is a relatively low-frequency function that can be automatically completed during parking, accessory taking and placing belong to a higher-frequency human-machine interaction scenario.

[0036] Users often need to frequently take, replace and return cleaning accessories before and after cleaning, and this process usually occurs when the hands may be contaminated with dust, stains or water. In the prior art, the opening and closing of the accessory storage space often depends on manual touch and force, which causes the outer surface of the box door to be easily contaminated and accumulated, and the opening and closing to the position, smoothness and consistency depend on the user's operation habits and force differences, which may cause problems such as poor sealing, poor opening and closing, poor repeatability, etc., thereby making the accessory storage, which is originally used to improve convenience, become a short board that affects hygiene and interactive experience.

[0037] Based on the above cognition, the technical implementation idea of the present disclosure is that for the opening and closing behavior of the accessory storage space, the user's interaction intention is converted from direct physical operation on the box door to opening and closing request on the system through the construction of the driving link and the control link, and then the system outputs the control instruction to cooperate with the driving structure to complete the opening and closing of the box door, so that the storage space is switched between the accessible state and the closed protection state according to the expected state, thereby avoiding the user having to directly touch the box door to complete the opening and closing.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7As shown, the base station in an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a box body 1, a box door 2 and a driving assembly 3; the box body 1 has a receiving cavity 11 for accommodating cleaning accessories; the box door 2 is movably connected with the box body 1, and the box door 2 can move relative to the box body 1 to open or close the receiving cavity 11; the driving assembly 3 includes a motor 31 and a transmission member 32, and a transmission structure connects the box door 2 and the output shaft of the motor 31, so that the box door 2 can be moved under the driving of the motor 31; wherein the motor 31 is configured to be able to respond to a control instruction to drive the box door 2 to move to an open position to open the receiving cavity 11 or to a closed position to close the receiving cavity 11.

[0039] The box body 1 forms the receiving cavity 11 for accommodating cleaning accessories, and the receiving cavity 11 is internally provided with a structure for placing, positioning and taking out cleaning accessories, and the receiving cavity 11 is provided with an opening for taking and placing cleaning accessories, so that the cleaning accessories can be taken out of or placed into the receiving cavity 11 through the opening. The box body 1 provides a mounting reference for the movable connection of the box door 2, so that the box door 2 can realize constrained movement relative to the box body 1, thereby providing a passage space for taking and placing cleaning accessories when the receiving cavity 11 is in an open state, and forming a barrier and covering for the receiving cavity 11 when the receiving cavity 11 is in a closed state, so as to reduce the probability of dust entering the receiving cavity 11 and improve the aesthetic appearance.

[0040] A predetermined relative movable relationship is formed between the box door 2 and the box body 1, so that the box door 2 can be switched between the open position and the closed position. When the box door 2 is in the closed position, the box door 2 forms a shield for the opening of the receiving cavity 11, so that the opening is closed or at least limited to a degree that is not convenient for the cleaning accessories to freely enter and exit, thereby making the receiving cavity 11 in a closed state; when the box door 2 is in the open position, the box door 2 is moved to a position away from the opening relative to the box body 1, so that the opening of the receiving cavity 11 is in a passable state, thereby making the receiving cavity 11 in an open state, and the user can take and place cleaning accessories in the receiving cavity 11 through the opening.

[0041] The motor 31 is provided as a power source in the base station and forms a mounting and fixing relationship with the box body 1, so that the motor 31 can provide stable output when working and avoid relative displacement caused by reaction force. The motor 31 has an output shaft that generates rotary power output when the motor 31 is powered and operated, and the transmission member 32 connects the box door 2 and the output shaft of the motor 31, so that the power output of the motor 31 can be transmitted to the box door 2 through the transmission member 32 and converted into movement of the box door 2 relative to the box body 1.

[0042] The transmission member 32 is structurally configured as an intermediate mechanism for power transmission and motion conversion, which forms a transmission connection relationship with the motor 31 output shaft to receive the power input of the motor 31 output shaft, and forms a transmission connection relationship with the cabinet door 2 to apply driving force to the cabinet door 2 and limit the motion direction or motion stroke of the cabinet door 2. Through the arrangement of the transmission member 32, the motion of the motor 31 output shaft can be effectively transmitted and used to drive the cabinet door 2, so that the cabinet door 2 obtains driving force during opening or closing, thereby avoiding the problems of inconsistent opening and closing force, poor to-position performance or insufficient repeatability caused by the complete reliance of the user on direct force.

[0043] The motor 31 can respond to the control instruction to drive the cabinet door 2 to move to an open position opening the storage cavity 11 or to a closed position closing the storage cavity 11. Through the introduction of the control instruction, the opening and closing behavior of the cabinet door 2 is changed from manual direct operation to an automatic opening and closing process controlled by the motor 31, so that the base station can drive the motor 31 to operate according to the preset logic after receiving the door opening request or the door closing request, and drive the cabinet door 2 to complete relative motion through the transmission member 32.

[0044] Since the opening and closing of the cabinet door 2 is driven by the motor 31, the user does not need to directly touch the cabinet door 2 for pushing or pulling or opening operation when taking or placing the cleaning accessories, thereby reducing the pollution accumulation caused by high-frequency touching and improving the hygiene level; at the same time, the motor 31 can stably output under the action of the control instruction, so that the cabinet door 2 can more consistently reach the open position or the closed position during each opening and closing process, which helps to improve the opening and closing to-position performance and the motion consistency, and reduces phenomena such as half-open half-closed, loose closing or rebound gap caused by human operation differences.

[0045] In an exemplary embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the storage cavity 11 includes a first cavity 111 and a second cavity 112 located on the left and right sides of the cabinet 1, and the cabinet door 2 includes a first door body 21 and a second door body 22, the first door body 21 is used to open or close the first cavity 111, and the second door body 22 is used to open or close the second cavity 112.

[0046] The first cavity 111 and the second cavity 112 are arranged in the transverse (left and right) direction of the cabinet 1, so that the storage cavity 11 forms a structure form of left and right partition in space. By dividing the storage cavity 11 into the first cavity 111 and the second cavity 112, the storage space inside the cabinet 1 is organized into two relatively independent storage areas, each storage area can be configured according to the category, form, size or use frequency of the cleaning accessories, so as to realize the classified storage and management of the cleaning accessories, and avoid mutual knocking, cross contamination or taking and placing interference caused by mixed placement of multiple cleaning accessories.

[0047] In other embodiments, the receiving cavity 11 can also be provided with only one chamber, i.e. a single receiving space is formed inside the box body for receiving the cleaning accessories, and the entrance of the receiving cavity 11 can be correspondingly provided on a predetermined side area of the box body, so that the user can take and place the cleaning accessories through the entrance. In this structural configuration, the box door 2 (single door body) is still movably connected with the box body 1 and can be moved relative to the box body 1 to open or close the receiving cavity 11. The box door 2 forms a shielding for the entrance of the receiving cavity 11 in the closed state to make the receiving cavity 11 in a closed state, and is moved to a position avoiding the entrance of the receiving cavity 11 in the open state to make the receiving cavity 11 in a take-and-place state, thereby keeping the consistency of the opening and closing control mode of the receiving cavity 11 with the double-chamber structure.

[0048] The first door body 21 is provided corresponding to the first chamber 111 and is used to open or close the first chamber 111, and the second door body 22 is provided corresponding to the second chamber 112 and is used to open or close the second chamber 112. The first door body 21 and the second door body 22 are both movably connected with the box body 1, so that the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 can be moved relative to the box body 1 and switched between the open position and the closed position.

[0049] When the first door body 21 is in the closed position, it forms a shielding for the opening of the first chamber 111, so that the first chamber 111 is in a closed state, thereby reducing the probability of external dust entering the first chamber 111 and keeping the cleanliness of the cleaning accessories inside the first chamber 111. When the first door body 21 is in the open position, it is moved relative to the box body 1 to a position avoiding the opening of the first chamber 111, so that the opening of the first chamber 111 is in a passable state, and the user can complete the taking and placing of the cleaning accessories through the opening of the first chamber 111.

[0050] The opening and closing control process of the second door body 22 on the second chamber 112 is structurally and logically consistent with the opening and closing control process of the first door body 21 on the first chamber 111. When the second door body 22 is in the closed position, it shields the opening of the second chamber 112 to make the second chamber 112 in a closed state, and when the second door body 22 is in the open position, it avoids the opening of the second chamber 112 to make the second chamber 112 in an open state, thereby allowing the user to take and place the cleaning accessories received in the second chamber 112. Thus, the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 respectively constitute movable closing members for the first chamber 111 and the second chamber 112, so that the two chambers can realize opening and closing control.

[0051] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The box body 1 includes a front side wall 12 located at the front side of the receiving cavity 11, and the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 are both slidably connected with the front side wall 12 and can be synchronously slid in the vertical direction relative to the front side wall 12.

[0052] The front side wall 12 is arranged at the front side of the cabinet 1 and constitutes the structural boundary of the receiving cavity 11 in the front side direction. The front side wall 12 is used to define the opening area and the peripheral contour of the receiving cavity 11, and also provides a bearing reference for the installation and movement of the first door body 21 and the second door body 22. The first door body 21 and the second door body 22 are both in sliding connection with the front side wall 12, so that the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 can realize guided linear movement relative to the cabinet 1 under the constraint of the front side wall 12. The sliding connection relationship defines the movement direction of the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 as mainly vertical, so that the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 can be synchronously slid in the vertical direction relative to the front side wall 12 to correspond to the open state and the closed state of the receiving cavity 11 at different positions in the vertical direction, respectively.

[0053] The synchronous sliding relationship of the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 enables the two door bodies to maintain consistent displacement direction and displacement stroke during driving, so that the opening and closing actions of the first door body 21 on the first chamber 111 and the second door body 22 on the second chamber 112 correspond in time, avoiding the situation that one side door body opens first while the other side door body lags behind, and also avoiding the situation that one side door body closes in place while the other side door body does not, resulting in uneven appearance or partial exposure of the receiving cavity 11. Synchronous sliding also enables the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 to form a more unified door gap line and a more consistent appearance boundary in the closed state, which is beneficial to improving the overall aesthetics of the cabinet 1.

[0054] Further, as shown in Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the left and right ends of the front side wall 12 are provided with guide rails 4 in the vertical direction, and the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 are provided with sliding blocks 5 that are slidingly installed with the guide rails 4. The sliding blocks 5 are connected with the transmission member 32, so that the sliding blocks 5 can slide along the guide rails 4 under the driving of the motor 31.

[0055] The guide rails 4 are arranged in a vertically extending manner at the left and right side edge regions of the front side wall 12, so that the front side wall 12 forms a guide interface for the movement of the door bodies at the left and right sides, respectively. The guide rails 4 are fixedly connected with the front side wall 12 and form a stable relative position relationship with the front side wall 12, so that the guide rails 4 can provide a determined guide direction and guide stroke with the cabinet 1 as a reference.

[0056] The first door body 21 and the second door body 22 are respectively provided with a sliding block 5 slidably installed with the guide rail 4, the sliding block 5 is in a fixed connection relationship with the corresponding door body, the sliding block 5 constitutes a guide component of the door body in structure, and the movement of the door body is constrained to be a movement in a vertical direction through the sliding cooperation between the sliding block 5 and the guide rail 4. Since the guide rail 4 is arranged in the vertical direction, the sliding block 5 can keep the posture of the door body stable during the movement when the sliding block 5 slides in or on the guide rail 4, and the probability of the door body tilting, swinging or left-right deviation during the opening and closing process is reduced.

[0057] The sliding block 5 is connected with the transmission member 32, so that the driving force output by the transmission member 32 can act on the sliding block 5 and be transmitted to the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 through the sliding block 5. By arranging the driving force acting point at the sliding block 5, the stress path of the door body can be matched with the guide path of the guide rail 4, so that the door body is mainly stressed and moves in the direction of the guide rail 4 during the driving process, and the risk of lateral force and jam caused by driving force bias is reduced.

[0058] The connection relationship between the sliding block 5 and the transmission member 32 enables the sliding block 5 to slide along the guide rail 4 under the driving of the motor 31, that is, the driving force output by the motor 31 is converted into pulling or pushing of the sliding block 5 through the transmission member 32, so that the sliding block 5 generates displacement in the vertical direction, and further drives the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 fixedly connected with the sliding block 5 to synchronously complete upward movement or downward movement, thereby realizing the opening or closing of the accommodation cavity 11.

[0059] In an exemplary embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the transmission member 32 includes a gear transmission mechanism 33, and a first belt transmission mechanism 34 and a second belt transmission mechanism 35 connected with the gear transmission mechanism 33, the gear transmission mechanism 33 is connected with the output shaft of the motor 31, and the first belt transmission mechanism 34 and the second belt transmission mechanism 35 have transmission paths arranged in the vertical direction.

[0060] The gear transmission mechanism 33 converts the rotary output of the output shaft of the motor 31 into the synchronous rotation of each transmission element inside the gear transmission mechanism 33 through the transmission connection with the output shaft of the motor 31, so as to form a stable power input end inside the transmission member 32. The rotary power output by the gear transmission mechanism 33 can be input to the first belt transmission mechanism 34 and the second belt transmission mechanism 35 respectively, and then the first belt transmission mechanism 34 and the second belt transmission mechanism 35 can realize synchronous action under the driving of the same motor 31. By matching the first belt transmission mechanism 34 and the second belt transmission mechanism 35 with the gear transmission mechanism 33, the transmission member 32 can realize power splitting and coupling in structure, so that the driving paths of the left and right door bodies have consistent power input conditions, thereby being beneficial to improving the synchronization and consistency of the opening and closing of the door body.

[0061] The first belt transmission mechanism 34 and the second belt transmission mechanism 35 have transmission paths arranged in the vertical direction, that is, the belt transmission sections of the first belt transmission mechanism 34 and the second belt transmission mechanism 35 are arranged to extend at least partially in the vertical direction, so that the belt transmission mechanisms can output driving force in the form of linear transmission in the vertical direction, thereby matching the movement form of the door body sliding in the vertical direction.

[0062] When the motor 31 output shaft drives the first belt transmission mechanism 34 and the second belt transmission mechanism 35 to operate through the gear transmission mechanism 33, the first belt transmission mechanism 34 and the second belt transmission mechanism 35 can further convert the rotary motion into belt body motion in the vertical direction, and the belt body motion cooperates with the connecting part of the sliding block 5 or the door body to drive the door body to displace in the vertical direction. Since the transmission path is arranged in the vertical direction, the action direction of the driving force can be consistent with the main movement direction of the door body, so that the door body can reduce the risk of lateral load and jam caused by the direction bias of the force during opening and closing.

[0063] In addition, to adapt to different cost, space and reliability requirements, the transmission member 32 can also adopt a screw transmission structure or a gear and rack transmission structure in other embodiments. The screw transmission structure can realize the vertical movement of the door body through the conversion of rotary input and linear output, and has better positioning characteristics and anti-back driving ability to a certain extent, and is suitable for scenes with high requirements on opening and closing stability; the gear and rack transmission structure can convert rotary motion into linear motion through the meshing of gear and rack, and has good transmission rigidity and strong carrying capacity, and is suitable for scenes with large door body weight or high transmission efficiency requirements.

[0064] Specifically, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 The gear transmission mechanism 33 includes a driving gear 331, a first driven gear 332 connected with the first belt transmission mechanism 34, and a second driven gear 333 connected with the second belt transmission mechanism 35. The driving gear 331 is connected with the output shaft of the motor 31, the first driven gear 332 is meshed with the driving gear 331, and the second driven gear 333 is meshed with the first driven gear 332.

[0065] The driving gear 331 can be fixedly sleeved on the output shaft of the motor 31 or form a relatively fixed coaxial connection relationship with the output shaft of the motor 31. When the motor 31 operates, the output shaft of the motor 31 drives the driving gear 331 to rotate synchronously, and the driving gear 331 constitutes the power input end of the gear transmission mechanism 33.

[0066] The first driven gear 332 is engaged with the driving gear 331, and when the driving gear 331 rotates, the first driven gear 332 is driven to rotate by the engagement of the tooth surfaces, so that the power is transmitted from the driving gear 331 to the first driven gear 332; the first driven gear 332 is connected with the first belt transmission mechanism 34, so that the rotation of the first driven gear 332 can be as the rotation input of the first belt transmission mechanism 34, thereby driving the first belt transmission mechanism 34 to operate and output the corresponding transmission effect.

[0067] The second driven gear 333 is engaged with the first driven gear 332, and when the first driven gear 332 rotates under the driving of the driving gear 331, the second driven gear 333 is further driven to rotate by the engagement of the tooth surfaces, so that the power is transmitted through the gear transmission mechanism 33 to form a transmission link from the driving gear 331 to the second driven gear 333 through the first driven gear 332; the second driven gear 333 is connected with the second belt transmission mechanism 35, so that the rotation of the second driven gear 333 can be as the rotation input of the second belt transmission mechanism 35, thereby driving the second belt transmission mechanism 35 to operate and output the corresponding transmission effect.

[0068] Through the above transmission connection relationship, the gear transmission mechanism 33 realizes the synchronous driving of the first belt transmission mechanism 34 and the second belt transmission mechanism 35 with the motor 31 as the same power source. Since the first driven gear 332 is directly engaged with the driving gear 331, and the second driven gear 333 is engaged with the first driven gear 332, the first belt transmission mechanism 34 and the second belt transmission mechanism 35 are kinematically constrained by the same gear train, and a stable transmission relationship can be obtained, so that the two belt transmission mechanisms produce corresponding motion outputs when the motor 31 is driven in the forward or reverse direction, thereby providing a structural basis for the synchronous opening and closing of the first door body 21 and the second door body 22.

[0069] Compared with the mode of using two independent motors 31 to drive the door bodies on both sides, the gear transmission mechanism 33 can avoid the problem of asynchronization caused by parameter difference, control error or load change of the motor 31, and realize synchronous coupling by mechanical engagement, so that the synchronous relationship is not dependent on complex control algorithm, the structure is more direct, the cost is more controllable, and the reliability is higher.

[0070] Further, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the first belt transmission mechanism 34 comprises a first synchronous belt 341, a first transmission pulley 342 and a first tension pulley 343, the first tension pulley 343 is arranged at the upper and lower ends of the front side wall 12 along the vertical direction, the first transmission pulley 342 is connected with the first driven gear 332, and the first synchronous belt 341 is engaged with the first transmission pulley 342 and the first tension pulley 343, so that the first synchronous belt 341 extends at least partially along the vertical direction. The second belt transmission mechanism 35 comprises a second synchronous belt 351, a second transmission pulley 352 and a second tension pulley 353, the second tension pulley 353 is arranged at the upper and lower ends of the front side wall 12 along the vertical direction, the second transmission pulley 352 is connected with the second driven gear 333, and the second synchronous belt 351 is engaged with the second transmission pulley 352 and the second tension pulley 353, so that the second synchronous belt 351 extends at least partially along the vertical direction.

[0071] The first belt transmission mechanism 34 constitutes a transmission branch of the transmission member 32, wherein the first transmission pulley 342 is connected with the first driven gear 332, so that the rotation of the first driven gear 332 can be transmitted to the first transmission pulley 342 and drive the first transmission pulley 342 to rotate synchronously. The first tension pulley 343 is arranged at the upper and lower ends of the front side wall 12 along the vertical direction, and the upper end region and the lower end region of the front side wall 12 along the vertical direction respectively provide mounting positions for the first tension pulley 343, so that the first tension pulley 343 is spatially matched with the first transmission pulley 342 to form a surrounding arrangement, thereby providing the first synchronous belt 341 with at least one movement path arranged along the vertical direction.

[0072] The first synchronous belt 341 is engaged with the first transmission pulley 342 and the first tension pulley 343, and the tooth-shaped inner surface of the first synchronous belt 341 respectively matches and forms meshing transmission with the tooth-shaped outer periphery of the first transmission pulley 342 and the tooth-shaped outer periphery of the first tension pulley 343, so that the first transmission pulley 342 can drive the first synchronous belt 341 to move cyclically when rotating, and the first tension pulley 343 maintains the tension state of the first synchronous belt 341 while ensuring the surrounding arrangement of the first synchronous belt 341. Through the above structural relationship, the first synchronous belt 341 extends at least partially along the vertical direction, so that the first belt transmission mechanism 34 can form a stable vertical movement segment along the vertical direction, thereby providing an adaptive transmission structure for converting the rotational power into the movement of the first door body 21 along the vertical direction.

[0073] The second belt transmission mechanism 35 is correspondingly arranged with the first belt transmission mechanism 34 in terms of structure and function logic, wherein the second transmission pulley 352 is connected with the second driven gear 333, so that the rotation of the second driven gear 333 can be transmitted to the second transmission pulley 352 and drive the second transmission pulley 352 to rotate synchronously. The second tension pulley 353 is arranged at the upper and lower ends of the front side wall 12 in the vertical direction, and the second tension pulley 353 and the second transmission pulley 352 jointly define the winding path of the second synchronous belt 351, so that the second synchronous belt 351 forms at least one movement section extending in the vertical direction inside the box body 1. The second synchronous belt 351 is engaged with the second transmission pulley 352 and the second tension pulley 353, so that the rotation of the second transmission pulley 352 can drive the second synchronous belt 351 to move circularly through engagement transmission, and the second tension pulley 353 is used to maintain the tension of the second synchronous belt 351 and stabilize the transmission track of the second synchronous belt 351, so that the second synchronous belt 351 at least partially extends in the vertical direction to form a transmission path consistent with the vertical sliding direction of the second door body 22.

[0074] In the above structural configuration, the first belt transmission mechanism 34 and the second belt transmission mechanism 35 are respectively in power connection relationship with the first driven gear 332 and the second driven gear 333 of the gear transmission mechanism 33, so that the rotation power output by the output shaft of the motor 31 is distributed by the gear transmission mechanism 33 and then input to the first transmission pulley 342 and the second transmission pulley 352 respectively, thereby driving the first synchronous belt 341 and the second synchronous belt 351 to run synchronously. Through the parallel arrangement of the two belt transmission mechanisms, the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 can obtain synchronous and direction-consistent driving input, so that the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 have better synchronous sliding characteristics during opening and closing, and the phenomenon of one side moving first or one side lagging behind is reduced.

[0075] In an embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 As shown, the belt transmission mechanism can adopt a three-tension-pulley arrangement to construct a more stable synchronous belt transmission path in the limited space of the front side wall 12 and realize the overall L-shaped arrangement of the synchronous belt. Specifically, one tension pulley is installed at the upper end region of the front side wall 12, which is located at the turning region of one end of the synchronous belt, and the inner surface of the one end of the synchronous belt is engaged with the tension pulley, so that the synchronous belt forms a guided turning point at the upper end of the front side wall 12.

[0076] The lower end region of the front side wall 12 is provided with two tension pulleys, which are located in the path region of the middle part of the synchronous belt, one of the tension pulleys at the lower end is engaged with the inner surface of the middle part of the synchronous belt, so as to form a turning guide of the extension direction of the synchronous belt at the lower end, and the synchronous belt is transitioned from the vertical extension section to the horizontal extension section; the other tension pulley at the lower end is arranged outside the middle part of the synchronous belt and presses the outer surface of the middle part of the synchronous belt, so as to provide additional tension and limiting by pressing the outer surface of the synchronous belt, and the synchronous belt is kept in a predetermined envelope at the turning position of the extension direction, so as to avoid shaking, shifting or local relaxation of the synchronous belt during operation.

[0077] The transmission pulley is arranged at a position corresponding to the turning region of the other end part of the synchronous belt, and the transmission pulley is engaged with the inner surface of the other end part of the synchronous belt, so that the transmission pulley drives the synchronous belt to circulate under the driving input.

[0078] Under the above structural relationship, the inner surface of the synchronous belt is engaged with the tooth shape at the upper end tension pulley, the other tension pulley at the lower end and the transmission pulley, and the outer surface of the synchronous belt is pressed at the other tension pulley at the lower end, so that the synchronous belt is kept in a more reliable tension at the lower end region and is turned to constrain, so that the synchronous belt is arranged in an L shape and can keep sufficient engagement stability and smooth operation. By arranging two tension pulleys at the lower end to guide the inner surface and press the outer surface of the synchronous belt, the synchronous belt can be smoothly transitioned from the vertical section to the horizontal section under the condition of a smaller turning radius, and the stability of the synchronous belt at the turning position can be improved and the tooth jumping tendency of the tooth shape engagement can be inhibited.

[0079] In an exemplary embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 8 The slider 5 includes a main body part 51, a pulley part 52 and an engagement part 53, the main body part 51 is fixedly connected with the first door body 21 and the second door body 22, the pulley part 52 is rotationally connected with the main body part 51 and is in rolling contact with the guide rail 4, and the engagement part 53 is engaged with the vertically extended part of the first synchronous belt 341 and the second synchronous belt 351.

[0080] The main body part 51 is a bearing base of the slider 5, and is fixedly connected with the first door body 21 and the second door body 22, so that the slider 5 is integrated with the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 in a following relationship, so that when the slider 5 is displaced, the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 can be driven synchronously to complete corresponding displacement.

[0081] The pulley part 52 constitutes a low-friction guide structure when rolling on the guide rail 4, which reduces the resistance of the sliding block 5 moving along the guide rail 4, and further reduces the driving load of the motor 31 and improves the smoothness of the door body opening and closing process. The pulley part 52 is rotatably arranged relative to the main body part 51, so that the pulley part 52 can adapt to the surface of the guide rail 4 and continuously maintain a rolling contact state when the sliding block 5 moves along the guide rail 4, reducing the risk of jam caused by assembly errors or local stress, while reducing the wear rate between the guide rail 4 and the sliding block 5, and improving the reliability of long-term use.

[0082] The engagement part 53 and the first synchronous belt 341 and the second synchronous belt 351 adopt a meshing transmission relationship, which is beneficial to avoid slipping during driving, so that the sliding block 5 maintains a stable corresponding relationship between displacement and synchronous belt movement, thereby improving the repeatability and to the consistency of the opening and closing stroke.

[0083] In the working process, the motor 31 drives the first synchronous belt 341 and the second synchronous belt 351 to move, and the vertical extension part of the first synchronous belt 341 and the second synchronous belt 351 applies driving force to the sliding block 5 through the meshing action with the engagement part 53, so that the sliding block 5 moves in the vertical direction along the guide rail 4, and the sliding block 5 drives the first door body 21 and the second door body 22 to complete the opening or closing action synchronously through the fixed connection of the main body part 51 with the first door body 21 and the second door body 22.

[0084] In an exemplary embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 , the base station further comprises a base 6 for placing the cleaning equipment, the base 6 is provided with a shell 7, the shell 7 is provided with a dust collecting cavity for collecting dust of the cleaning equipment, the box body 1 is arranged on the top of the shell 7, and the top of the box body 1 is provided with a docking port 13 for docking a dust cup of the cleaning equipment. The docking port 13 is in communication with the dust collecting cavity.

[0085] The base 6 is arranged at the lower part of the base station and constitutes a bearing and positioning base when the cleaning equipment docks, so that the cleaning equipment can be stably placed at the predetermined position and keep the docking posture with the base station. The base 6 is provided with a shell 7, and the shell 7 and the base 6 form an assembly fixed relationship and constitute the main body shell structure of the base station. The shell 7 is provided with a dust collecting cavity, which forms a containing space for collecting dust of the cleaning equipment. The dust collecting cavity can receive dust-containing airflow or dust particles from the cleaning equipment when the cleaning equipment docks and performs dust collecting operation, and is used for storing and collecting dust.

[0086] The housing 1 is located on top of the casing 7, placing it in the upper part of the base station and forming a stacked spatial arrangement with the casing 7. This arrangement allows the housing 1 to utilize the space above the casing 7 for storing cleaning accessories, while reducing the space occupied by the housing 1 on the base 6. This achieves the integration of dust collection and accessory storage functions without significantly increasing the base station's footprint.

[0087] The placement of the housing 1 on top of the shell 7 allows the accessories to be picked up and placed at a height closer to the user's hands, making it easier for the user to pick up and place cleaning accessories while standing, thus improving the convenience of daily operation. The tower-like structure formed by the housing 1 and the shell 7 also enhances the aesthetics.

[0088] The top of the housing 1 is equipped with an interface 13, which is used to connect to the dust cup of the cleaning equipment, enabling the cleaning equipment to establish an airflow connection with the base station after it is docked at the base 6. The interface 13 is connected to the dust collection chamber, making it the airflow inlet or dust introduction channel of the dust collection chamber. When the dust cup of the cleaning equipment is properly connected to the interface 13, the dust inside the dust cup can enter the dust collection chamber through the interface 13 under negative pressure or airflow and be collected and stored.

[0089] By setting the interface 13 on the top of the housing 1, the position of the interface 13 can match the parking posture of the cleaning equipment, so that when the cleaning equipment is placed on the base 6, the interface 13 and the dust cup can be naturally aligned, reducing the need for users to adjust the docking angle or apply force, thereby improving the convenience of parking and dust collection operations.

[0090] In one exemplary embodiment, please refer to Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the upper end of the guide rail 4 is provided with a recessed portion 41 that is recessed towards the inside of the receiving cavity 11. When the slider 5 slides along the guide rail 4 to the recessed portion 41, the box door 2 closes the receiving cavity 11 and the outer surface of the box door 2 is flush with the outer surface of the housing 7. When the slider 5 slides out of the recessed portion 41, the box door 2 is displaced outward by a predetermined distance relative to the outer surface of the housing 7.

[0091] The recess 41 forms a partial clearance area at the upper end of the guide rail 4, causing the guide rail 4 to be offset relative to the inner side of the receiving cavity 11 near the upper end. As the slider 5 moves upward along the guide rail 4 to the upper end area, the slider 5 can generate a displacement component in the inner direction (depth direction) of the receiving cavity 11 under the guidance of the recess 41. When the slider 5 slides along the guide rail 4 to the recess 41, the slider 5 enters the predetermined storage position under the guidance and constraint of the recess 41. The slider 5 drives the box door 2, which is fixedly connected to it, to move synchronously to the closed state of closing the receiving cavity 11. In the closed state, the box door 2 covers the opening of the receiving cavity 11, and the outer surface of the box door 2 is flush with the outer surface of the housing 7.

[0092] The structure formed by the inner recess 41 on the upper end of the guide rail 4 restricts that the cabinet door 2 in the closed position can be guided to the appearance reference surface flush with the outer surface of the shell 7, avoiding the cabinet door 2 from protruding or recessing relative to the outer surface of the shell 7, so as to make the appearance line of the base station more continuous, and reduce the possibility of dust accumulation caused by the formation of steps and gaps on the outer surface.

[0093] When the slider 5 slides out of the inner recess 41, the guiding restriction of the inner recess 41 to the slider 5 is released, and the slider 5 transitions from the inner recess 41 to the regular guiding section of the guide rail 4 under the guiding action of the guide rail 4. In this transition process, the slider 5 drives the cabinet door 2 to outwardly displace a predetermined distance relative to the outer surface of the shell 7. The predetermined distance is jointly defined by the recess amount of the inner recess 41 on the upper end of the guide rail 4 and the guiding contour, so that when the cabinet door 2 starts to perform vertical downward sliding, it obtains outward allowance relative to the outer surface of the shell 7, thereby forming sufficient movement gap between the cabinet door 2 and the shell 7.

[0094] Since the cabinet door 2 is arranged flush with the outer surface of the shell 7 when it is closed at the top region of the shell 7, if the cabinet door 2 directly slides downward along the vertical direction in the flush state, the shell 7 is likely to interfere with the cabinet door 2 in the vertical direction, causing the cabinet door 2 to be stuck during downward sliding. Through the outward displacement generated when the slider 5 slides out of the inner recess 41, the cabinet door 2 can be disengaged from the flush state with the outer surface of the shell 7 at the start of the opening operation, so that the cabinet door 2 avoids the vertical interference of the shell 7, thereby maintaining smooth sliding when subsequently sliding downward along the vertical direction, avoiding wear, abnormal noise or failure to open and close due to interference.

[0095] The inner recess 41 changes the contour of the guide rail 4, and without adding an additional actuator, organizes the movement process of the cabinet door 2 into a flush storage state and an outward allowance state, so that the cabinet door 2 automatically obtains the flush effect when it is closed in place, and automatically obtains the outward allowance at the start of opening, avoiding the interference of the shell 7 with the cabinet door 2 in the vertical direction, thereby ensuring that the cabinet door 2 can smoothly slide downward to open the storage cavity 11, and achieving the balance of flush appearance, movement allowance and smooth opening and closing.

[0096] In an exemplary embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the cabinet 1 is provided with a control module 8 electrically connected with the motor 31, and the top of the cabinet 1 is provided with a switch 9 electrically connected with the control module 8. Operating the switch 9 can make the control module 8 send a control instruction to the motor 31 to open or close the storage cavity 11.

[0097] The control module 8 is in an electrical connection relationship with the motor 31, so that the control module 8 can control the on-off state, rotation direction and operation timing of the motor 31, thereby converting the opening and closing action of the box door 2 from manual direct operation to a controlled driving process based on control instructions. The top of the box body 1 is provided with a switch 9 electrically connected with the control module 8. The switch 9 is arranged at the top of the box body 1, which can facilitate the user to trigger the operation quickly in a standing posture, and at the same time, the switch 9 is away from the high-frequency touch surface in the entrance area of the receiving cavity 11, which is beneficial to reduce the probability of the surface of the switch 9 being contaminated by dust and stains.

[0098] The operation of the switch 9 by the user can be received and analyzed by the control module 8 as an opening door request or a closing door request, and the control module 8 sends an opening or closing control instruction of the receiving cavity 11 to the motor 31 according to the request, so as to control the motor 31 to perform a corresponding forward rotation or reverse rotation action, so as to switch the box door 2 between the opening position and the closing position, thereby realizing the automatic opening and closing control of the receiving cavity 11.

[0099] In the opening door process, the user operates the switch 9 to issue an opening door request, and the control module 8 sends an opening control instruction of the receiving cavity 11 to the motor 31. The motor 31 rotates forward under the action of the control instruction and drives the driving gear 331 to rotate forward through the output shaft. The driving gear 331 is a power input component of the gear transmission mechanism 33. Its rotation drives the first driven gear 332 to rotate through the meshing relationship, and further drives the second driven gear 333 to rotate through the meshing relationship between the first driven gear 332 and the second driven gear 333, so that the gear transmission mechanism 33 completes power distribution and forms two-way synchronous output under the condition of a single power source.

[0100] The first driven gear 332 is connected with the first transmission belt pulley 342 of the first belt transmission mechanism 34, so that the rotation of the first driven gear 332 drives the first transmission belt pulley 342 to rotate synchronously; the second driven gear 333 is connected with the second transmission belt pulley 352 of the second belt transmission mechanism 35, so that the rotation of the second driven gear 333 drives the second transmission belt pulley 352 to rotate synchronously. Since the first synchronous belt 341 is meshed with the first transmission belt pulley 342 and forms a transmission section extending in the vertical direction under the constraint and tension of the first tension belt pulley 343, the rotation of the first transmission belt pulley 342 can drive the first synchronous belt 341 to produce a circular motion and output a linear motion in the vertical extension section.

[0101] Similarly, the second synchronous belt 351 is engaged with the second transmission pulley 352 and forms a transmission section extending in the vertical direction under the constraint and tension of the second tension pulley 353, and the rotation of the second transmission pulley 352 can drive the second synchronous belt 351 to generate a circular motion and output a linear motion in the vertical extension section. Through the meshing transmission of the synchronous belt and the pulley, the rotary motion output by the gear transmission mechanism 33 is converted into the linear motion of the synchronous belt, so that the output form of the transmission member 32 matches the motion form of the sliding of the cabinet door 2 in the vertical direction.

[0102] The vertical extension part of the synchronous belt is engaged with the meshing part 53 of the sliding block 5, and the synchronous motion of the first synchronous belt 341 and the second synchronous belt 351 under the driving of the motor 31 can exert a driving force on the sliding block 5 in the vertical direction, so that the sliding block 5 slides in the vertical direction along the guide rail 4. The main body part 51 of the sliding block 5 is fixedly connected with the first door body 21 and the second door body 22, so that the vertical displacement of the sliding block 5 can directly drive the cabinet door 2 to synchronously descend, and the cabinet door 2 gradually opens the accommodation cavity 11 in the descending process, so that the user can take and place the cleaning accessories accommodated in the accommodation cavity 11 through the entrance.

[0103] In the closing process, the user operates the switch 9 to issue a closing request, the control module 8 sends a control instruction to close the accommodation cavity 11 to the motor 31, the motor 31 reversely rotates under the action of the control instruction, the driving gear 331 reversely rotates with the output shaft of the motor 31 and drives the first driven gear 332 and the second driven gear 333 to reversely rotate through the gear engagement, and then the first transmission pulley 342 and the second transmission pulley 352 reversely synchronously rotate, the first synchronous belt 341 and the second synchronous belt 351 reversely drive to generate a linear motion opposite to that in the opening process. The direction of the force of the synchronous belt on the sliding block 5 changes, so that the sliding block 5 moves upward in the vertical direction along the guide rail 4, and the sliding block 5 drives the cabinet door 2 to synchronously ascend through the main body part 51 and gradually shields the accommodation cavity 11, so that the accommodation cavity 11 transitions from the open state to the closed state. Since the transmission path is opposite to that in the opening process and is controlled by the same control module 8 and the same motor 31, the closing process of the cabinet door 2 has high repeatability, which is beneficial to ensuring the arrival of the cabinet door 2 in the closed state.

[0104] The disclosure also provides a cleaning system, which comprises the aforementioned base station of the cleaning device, and the cleaning device can be docked to the base station. The cleaning device and the base station form a matched use relationship in product form, and the cleaning device can be docked to the base station in a predetermined posture when it is in a non-working state. The base station provides a structural basis for carrying the cleaning device and forms an interfacing interface, and the cleaning device can be placed in the base station for docking after completing the cleaning work on the ground or other areas to be cleaned.

[0105] The disclosure also provides an operating method of the foregoing base station, which comprises: in response to the operation of the switch, the control module generates a control instruction for opening the base station storage cavity or a control instruction for closing the base station storage cavity; when the control instruction for opening the storage cavity is generated, the control module drives the motor to operate, and the output of the motor is transmitted to the box door through the transmission member to drive the box door to move to the open position relative to the box body; when the control instruction for closing the storage cavity is generated, the control module drives the motor to operate, and the output of the motor is transmitted to the box door through the transmission member to drive the box door to move to the closed position relative to the box body.

[0106] When the control instruction for opening the storage cavity is generated, the control module drives the motor to operate, the motor outputs the rotating power in the predetermined direction under the driving of the control module and is input to the transmission member via the output shaft, and the transmission member transmits the output of the motor to the box door to drive the box door to move to the open position relative to the box body. In this process, the control module can realize the opening driving by controlling the forward rotation of the motor, and can start the motor and adjust the rotating speed according to the preset opening speed. When the control module determines that the box door has reached the open position, the control module stops driving the motor and keeps the box door in the open state, so that the storage cavity is in the state of being capable of being taken out or placed.

[0107] When the control instruction for closing the storage cavity is generated, the control module drives the motor to operate and transmits the output of the motor to the box door through the transmission member. The closing stage can be realized by controlling the reverse rotation of the motor, so that the transmission member applies a driving force in the opposite direction to the opening stage to the box door, thereby driving the box door to return and shield the storage cavity. The motor output is stopped after reaching the closed position, and the box door can stably reach the closed position and keep the closed state.

[0108] In summary, the base station, the cleaning system and the operating method of the base station provided by the disclosure are provided. The box door movably connected with the box body and capable of moving relative to the box body is configured, and the driving assembly comprising the motor and the transmission member is matched, so that the box door can be switched between the open position and the closed position under the driving of the motor, and the automatic opening and closing control of the storage cavity is realized. In addition, the motor is configured to drive the box door to move in response to the control instruction, and the user does not need to directly apply force to the box door or frequently touch the box door when taking or placing the cleaning accessory, which can reduce the pollution accumulation caused by high-frequency interaction and improve the hygiene level. At the same time, the opening and closing actions of the box door are executed by the driving link formed by the motor and the transmission member, and the opening and closing strokes and the in-place state are more consistent, which reduces the out-of-position, rebound gap or opening and closing disorder caused by manual opening and closing, and improves the sealing reliability of the storage cavity.

[0109] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the disclosure is not limited to the details of the above-exemplified embodiments and that the disclosure can be implemented in other particular forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the disclosure. The presently disclosed embodiments are, therefore, to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the disclosure being indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein. No feature of the claims is to be construed as limiting the claims to the exact nature of the features described therein.

[0110] Furthermore, it should be understood that although the description is made on the basis of the embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution, and the description of the specification is only for the sake of clarity, and those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that those skilled in the art can understand.
