Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of kitchen cleaning equipment technology, specifically to a cleaning device capable of performing multi-state cleaning. Background Technology

[0002] For Chinese kitchens, due to the abundance of ingredients, the need for cleaning dishes, fruits and vegetables, fish and meat is very high.

[0003] Currently, dishwashers are widely used, primarily for washing dishes. However, people still mainly rely on hand washing in the sink to clean fruits, vegetables, fish, and meat, which is time-consuming and laborious. To address this issue, the applicant's prior patent ZL201610632336.9, "Integrated Sink Washing Device," discloses a structure that integrates a separate fruit and vegetable washing machine next to the sink. While this provides convenience for users to clean fruits, vegetables, fish, and meat, the drainage components and the drive structure of the washing machine are all located at the bottom of the sink, severely limiting the height and volume of both the washing machine and the sink, thus affecting the independent usable space of the sink.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, the applicant's patent application ZL 202521553877.3, "Food Washing Tank and Washing Device," discloses a new washing solution. The food washing tank is laterally movable within a water tank. Corresponding water inlet / outlet and air inlet structures are provided on the sidewall of the water tank and the side of the food washing tank. The food washing tank's left-right movement allows for docking or separation of the medium inlet from the sidewall of the water tank. The food washing tank and water tank form a detachable structure. When combined, they constitute an electric washing tank; when separated, they revert to an independent large water tank. A sink-type dishwasher can also be integrated beside the water tank to meet diverse consumer needs.

[0005] The above solution meets various cleaning needs of consumers while making full use of kitchen space. However, it cannot be implemented when consumers need to use the washing sink for electric cleaning and the large-capacity sink for hand washing at the same time, which affects the efficiency of consumers in handling tableware or food. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a cleaning device that can simultaneously meet the requirements of independent electric cleaning and hand washing, thereby improving the efficiency of tableware or food processing, in light of the current state of the technology.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:

[0008] A cleaning device includes a first container, a second container, and a cleaning tank. The cleaning tank is detachably disposed in the first container and the second container and can be switched between the two. The cleaning device is also provided with a flow channel module that can be detachably connected to the cleaning tank to supply water and / or air to it.

[0009] When the washing tank is placed in the first container, it can be used with the second container for independent washing. When the washing tank is placed in the second container, it can be used with the first container for independent washing. When the washing tank is removed, it can be used as an independent draining tank. Both the first and second containers can be used independently. The different ways of using them simultaneously meet the needs of consumers for independent washing and large-capacity hand washing, which helps to improve the efficiency of tableware or food processing.

[0010] Preferably, in the first state, the cleaning tank is placed in the first container and connected to the flow channel module; in the second state, the cleaning tank is placed in the second container and connected to the flow channel module. The cleaning tank of this invention can achieve independent cleaning by connecting to the flow channel module regardless of whether it is placed in the first or second container. Specifically, the first and second states share a single flow channel module, which integrates flow channels for supplying water to the cleaning tank in both states. Different flow channels are equipped with independent inlet valves. The first and second containers share a single supply module, greatly simplifying the structure, reducing costs, and minimizing the space required for installation; the flow channel module integrates flow channels corresponding to the first and second containers respectively, and the flow channels can be switched during operation by controlling the corresponding inlet valves.

[0011] Preferably, the first container and the second container are arranged adjacent to each other with an assembly gap between them, and at least a portion of the flow channel module is disposed in the assembly gap. The assembly gap between the first and second containers of this invention is extremely narrow, essentially representing the position of the crossbeams corresponding to the two water tanks after deep drawing or welding. Placing the flow channel module in this assembly gap allows for full utilization of space, improving space efficiency, while simultaneously shortening the medium transport path and reducing fluid loss.

[0012] To facilitate assembly, the first container has a first assembly port on its side wall near the assembly gap for connecting the cleaning tank and the flow channel module, and the second container has a second assembly port on its side wall near the assembly gap for connecting the cleaning tank and the flow channel module.

[0013] Preferably, the flow channel module is a flat structure adapted to the assembly gap and is at least partially clamped in the assembly gap. The assembly gap between the first container and the second container of the present invention is extremely narrow, which is actually the position of the crossbeam corresponding to the deep drawing or welding of the two water tanks. Setting the flow channel module as a flat structure and installing it in this assembly gap can make full use of the space, shorten the medium conveying stroke, and reduce fluid loss.

[0014] Preferably, the first sidewall of the flow channel module is arranged close to the outer wall of the first container and has a first opening corresponding to the first assembly port, and the second sidewall of the flow channel module is arranged close to the outer wall of the second container and has a second opening corresponding to the second assembly port. This structure facilitates the connection between the outlet of the flow channel module and the cleaning tank through the assembly port on the sidewall of the container, thereby supplying water and air to the cleaning tank and realizing electrified cleaning.

[0015] In this invention, the heights of the first opening and the second opening are either the same or slightly different. This can be adjusted according to actual production needs. Preferably, the first container is a water tank, and the second container is the functional slot of a sink-type dishwasher. In this case, the height of the second opening is lower than the first opening to accommodate the recessed portion of the top of the sink-type dishwasher's functional slot for door installation.

[0016] Preferably, the first opening includes a first water inlet and a first air inlet, and the second opening includes a second water inlet and a second air inlet, respectively. The flow channel module is provided with a first water supply channel corresponding to the first water inlet, a second water supply channel corresponding to the second water inlet, a first air supply channel corresponding to the first air inlet, and a second air supply channel corresponding to the second air inlet. By adopting the above structure, the water path opening and the air path opening are set independently to avoid water backflow into the air path and affecting normal operation.

[0017] Preferably, the flow channel module further includes a first drainage section sharing a first inlet with the first water supply channel, a second drainage section sharing a second inlet with the second water supply channel, and a drainage channel for draining water from the first and second drainage sections. Sharing an opening for both drainage and water inlet reduces the number of openings required for processing on containers and cleaning tanks, greatly simplifying the process and facilitating assembly.

[0018] The invention also includes a first plug that controls whether the first drainage section is connected to the drainage channel, and a second plug that controls whether the second drainage section is connected to the drainage channel, with at least a portion of the plug being movably disposed in the corresponding drainage section. This structure allows for separate control of whether the cleaning tank drains water under different usage conditions.

[0019] The invention also includes an air supply mechanism for supplying air to the first and second air supply channels, the outlet end of which is provided with a baffle that can control its connection with one of the first and second air supply channels. This structure allows for separate control of whether the cleaning tank receives air under different operating conditions.

[0020] The invention also includes a reversing structure that controls the movement of the first and second plugs while simultaneously controlling the rotation of the baffle, thereby achieving the reversal of the medium channels in the flow channel module. This reversing structure uses a single driving component to move the first plug, the second plug, and the baffle. The same driving component can be used to simultaneously switch between different water and air channels, simplifying the overall structure and significantly reducing production costs.

[0021] In this invention, the commutation structure includes:

[0022] The drive unit is equipped with an output gear that can rotate in both forward and reverse directions;

[0023] A transmission gear set, wherein the input gear of the transmission gear set meshes with the output gear for transmission, and the output gear of the transmission gear set is oscillating between the first plug and the second plug as the output gear rotates forward and backward;

[0024] A reversing groove is provided between the first plug and the second plug and is used to constrain the swing trajectory and swing endpoint of the output wheel;

[0025] A first transmission assembly is used to connect the first plug and the output wheel;

[0026] The second transmission assembly is used to connect the second plug and the output wheel;

[0027] A baffle plate is rotatably disposed at the inlet of the first air supply channel and the second air supply channel, and is used to control the opening of one of them;

[0028] The push rod has a first end that is linked to the second plug and / or the second plug, and a second end that is linked to the baffle and is used to drive the baffle to rotate between the first air supply channel and the second air supply channel.

[0029] By adopting the above-mentioned reversing structure, the same driving component can be used to switch between different water paths and different air paths simultaneously through multiple linkage structures. Furthermore, different water paths and air paths can be used in combination as needed to meet the drainage and air intake requirements of multiple containers.

[0030] Preferably, the first plug is movable back and forth along its length and its first end extends into the first drainage section, and the first transmission assembly is connected to the second end of the first plug. This structure facilitates the control of the opening and closing of the first drainage section by the movement of the first plug, while the first transmission assembly is used to realize the power transmission between the first plug and the driving component.

[0031] Preferably, the first transmission assembly includes a first transmission wheel and a first drive wheel. The first transmission wheel is used to engage with the output wheel when it swings over. The first drive wheel engages with the first transmission wheel and slides with the second end of the first plug, driving the first plug to move back and forth by its rotation. With this structure, the circumferential rotational force output by the drive component is converted into a driving force for the first plug to move back and forth in the longitudinal direction, thereby driving the first plug to open or close the first drainage section as needed.

[0032] Preferably, the second end of the first plug is provided with a first elongated hole arranged perpendicular to its length direction, and the side of the first drive wheel is provided with a first limiting shaft arranged near the edge and slidingly and rotatingly engaging with the first elongated hole. The first limiting shaft is actually eccentrically arranged relative to the first driving force, and this structure facilitates the control of the reciprocating movement of the first plug in the length direction by rotating the first drive wheel.

[0033] Preferably, the second plug is movable back and forth along its length and its first end extends into the second drainage section, and the second transmission assembly is connected to the second end of the second plug. This structure facilitates the control of the opening and closing of the second drainage section by the movement of the second plug, while the second transmission assembly is used to realize the power transmission between the second plug and the driving component.

[0034] Preferably, the second transmission assembly includes a second transmission wheel and a second drive wheel. The second transmission wheel is used to engage with the output wheel when it swings over. The second drive wheel engages with the second transmission wheel and slides with the second end of the second plug, driving the second plug to move back and forth by its rotation. With this structure, the circumferential rotational force output by the drive component is converted into a driving force for the second plug to move back and forth in the longitudinal direction, thereby driving the second plug to open or close the second drainage section as needed.

[0035] Preferably, the second end of the second plug is provided with a second elongated hole arranged perpendicular to its length direction, and the side of the second drive wheel is provided with a second limiting shaft arranged near the edge and slidingly and rotatingly engaging with the second elongated hole. The second limiting shaft is actually eccentrically arranged relative to the second driving force, and this structure facilitates the control of the reciprocating movement of the second plug in the length direction by rotating the second drive wheel.

[0036] Preferably, the reversing groove is an arc-shaped structure arranged between the first and second plugs, with air supplied to the plugs in the middle. The shaft of the output wheel is slidably and rotatably constrained in the reversing groove. With this structure, as the reduction gear set runs, the output wheel can oscillate under the guidance and constraint of the reversing groove while rotating, thereby enabling the driving component to be linked with one of the first and second plugs, that is, driving both plugs is achieved through one driving component.

[0037] Preferably, the upper end of the baffle is rotatably mounted between the inlets of the first and second air passages, and always maintains a tendency to close one of the inlets of the first and second air passages. The push rod drives the baffle to rotate by reciprocating along its length, thereby switching the position between the inlets of the first and second air passages. This structure facilitates the switching of the usage states of the first and second air passages by moving the plug along its length to rotate the baffle.

[0038] Preferably, the reversing structure further includes a toggle member disposed on the back of the baffle. The toggle member has a limiting shaft at its center that connects to and drives the upper end of the baffle to rotate. One end of the toggle member is constrained by an elastic element to keep the baffle tending to close one inlet of the first and second air passages. The other end of the toggle member is linked to a push rod, and the toggle member rotates as the push rod reciprocates along its length. This structure achieves linkage between the plug and the baffle through the push rod and toggle member, using only one driving element to achieve synchronous driving of both plugs and the baffle.

[0039] Preferably, the push rod has an outwardly extending baffle at one end near the drive member. Correspondingly, the second end of the first or second plug has a limiting protrusion that abuts against the outer side of the baffle. The limiting protrusion cooperates with the baffle to cause the push rod to push the actuating member during the stroke of the plug blocking the corresponding flow channel. The actuating member overcomes the elastic force of the elastic member and rotates, thereby driving the baffle to switch between the inlet positions of the first and second air flow channels. This structure achieves linkage between the plug and the push rod. Preferably, the second plug is connected to the push rod.

[0040] Preferably, a first connecting arm extending radially along the limiting axis is provided on one side of the actuating member. The upper end of the first connecting arm is connected to the first end of the elastic member, and the second end of the elastic member is constrained beside the first connecting arm and applies a tensile force to the first connecting arm. This structure facilitates maintaining the actuating member and the baffle in an original state through the elastic member.

[0041] Preferably, a second connecting arm extending radially along the limiting axis is provided on the other side of the actuating member. The second connecting arm has an L-shaped structure, and the free end of the push rod is arranged and in contact with the semi-enclosed cavity of the L-shaped structure. This structure facilitates the rotation of the actuating member by moving the push rod, which in turn drives the baffle to rotate accordingly.

[0042] To facilitate the connection between the cleaning tank and the corresponding flow channels in the flow channel module, the side wall of the cleaning tank is provided with water guide ports corresponding to the first and second water inlets and air guide ports corresponding to the first and second air inlets. When the cleaning tank is placed in the first container, the first side of the cleaning tank is arranged facing forward to connect the water guide port with the first water inlet and the air guide port with the first air inlet. When the cleaning tank is placed in the second container, the first side of the cleaning tank is arranged facing backward to connect the water guide port with the second water inlet and the air guide port with the second air inlet.

[0043] In this invention, the cleaning tank is provided with water inlet and / or drainage channels and aeration channels that can communicate with the flow channel module. The aeration channels are connected to aeration holes for blowing air into the cleaning tank. With this structure, the cleaning tank can achieve self-drainage and bubbling cleaning during electro-hydraulic cleaning.

[0044] Preferably, the first container is a water tank, and the second container is an inner tub that forms a closed washing chamber. More preferably, the inner tub is a tank with an open top or a shell with an open front, and the tank is preferably the functional tub of a water tank dishwasher. This allows for the coordinated use of different washing structures.

[0045] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are as follows: The present invention detachably installs the cleaning tank capable of electro-hydraulic cleaning in the first container and the second container, and can switch positions between the two. When the cleaning tank is placed in the first container, it can be used in conjunction with the second container. When the cleaning tank is placed in the second container, it can be used in conjunction with the first container. When the cleaning tank is removed, it can be used as an independent draining tank. The first container and the second container can be used independently. The different ways of use simultaneously meet the needs of consumers for independent electro-hydraulic cleaning and large-capacity hand washing, which is conducive to improving the efficiency of tableware or food processing.

[0057] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0058] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that if terms such as "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "clockwise," "counterclockwise," "axial," "radial," and "circumferential" appear, these terms indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting this invention.

[0059] Furthermore, where the terms "first" and "second" appear, these terms are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this invention, where the term "multiple" appears, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0060] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise explicitly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0061] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the use of descriptions such as "above" or "below" the second feature indicates that the first and second features are in direct contact, or indirect contact via an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. Similarly, "below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0062] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. If an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. Where applicable, the terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this invention are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0063] like Figure 1 As shown in ~ 11, the cleaning device of this embodiment includes a first container 01, a second container 02 and a cleaning tank 9. The first container 01 and the second container 02 are arranged adjacent to each other and there is an assembly gap D between them. The cleaning tank 9 is detachably installed in the first container 01 and the second container 02 and can switch between the two. A flow channel module A is provided at the assembly gap D, which can be detachably connected to the cleaning tank 9 to supply water and air to it.

[0064] When the washing tank 9 is placed in the first container 01, it can be used in conjunction with the second container 02. When the washing tank 9 is placed in the second container 02, it can be used in conjunction with the first container 01. When the washing tank 9 is removed, it can be used as an independent draining tank. Both the first container 01 and the second container 02 can be used independently. The different ways of using it simultaneously meet the needs of consumers for independent electric washing and large-capacity hand washing, which is conducive to improving the efficiency of tableware or food processing.

[0065] To facilitate assembly, the first container 01 has a first assembly port 01a on its side wall near the assembly gap D, which allows the cleaning tank 9 to communicate with the flow channel module A. The second container 02 has a second assembly port 02a on its side wall near the assembly gap D, which allows the cleaning tank 9 to communicate with the flow channel module A.

[0066] The flow channel module A is a flat structure adapted to the assembly gap D and is at least partially clamped in the assembly gap D. In this embodiment, the assembly gap D between the first container 01 and the second container 02 is extremely narrow. It is actually the position of the crossbeam corresponding to the deep drawing or welding of the two water tanks. Setting the flow channel module A as a flat structure and installing it in this assembly gap D can make full use of the space, shorten the medium conveying stroke, and reduce fluid loss.

[0067] The first sidewall of the flow channel module A is arranged close to the outer wall of the first container 01 and has a first opening corresponding to the first assembly port 01a. The second sidewall of the flow channel module A is arranged close to the outer wall of the second container 02 and has a second opening corresponding to the second assembly port 02a. This structure facilitates the connection between the outlet of the flow channel module A and the cleaning tank 9 through the assembly port on the sidewall of the container, thereby supplying water and air to the cleaning tank 9 and realizing electrified cleaning.

[0068] In this embodiment, the heights of the first opening and the second opening may be the same or slightly different. This can be adjusted according to actual production needs. Preferably, the first container 01 is a water tank, and the second container 02 is the functional compartment of a sink-type dishwasher. In this case, the height of the second opening is lower than the first opening to accommodate the recessed portion of the top of the functional compartment of the sink-type dishwasher for door installation. It should be noted that the functional compartment referred to here is the tank of the sink-type dishwasher used for automatically cleaning tableware.

[0069] The aforementioned first opening includes a relatively independent first water inlet 001 and a first air inlet 100, and the second opening includes a relatively independent second water inlet 002 and a second air inlet 200. The flow channel module A is provided with a first water supply channel 1a corresponding to the first water inlet 001, a second water supply channel 2a corresponding to the second water inlet 002, a first air supply channel 1b corresponding to the first air inlet 100, and a second air supply channel 2b corresponding to the second air inlet 200. By adopting the above structure, the water and air openings are set independently to prevent water from flowing back into the air path and affecting normal operation.

[0070] The flow channel module A also includes a first drainage section 11a that shares a first water inlet 001 with the first water supply channel 1a, a second drainage section 21a that shares a second water inlet 002 with the second water supply channel 2a, and a drainage channel 1c for draining water from the first drainage section 11a and the second drainage section 21a. Sharing an opening for both drainage and water inlet reduces the number of openings required for processing on the container and cleaning tank 9, greatly simplifying the process and facilitating assembly.

[0071] This embodiment also includes a first plug 201 that controls whether the first drainage section 11a is connected to the drainage channel 1c, and a second plug 202 that controls whether the second drainage section 21a is connected to the drainage channel 1c. At least a portion of the plug is movably disposed within the corresponding drainage section. This structure allows for separate control of whether the cleaning tank 9 drains water under different usage conditions.

[0072] This embodiment also includes an air supply mechanism 3 for supplying air to the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b. The outlet end of the air supply mechanism 3 is provided with an air supply mechanism that can control its connection with one of the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b. This structure allows for separate control of whether the cleaning tank 9 is air-intake under different usage conditions.

[0073] This embodiment also includes a reversing structure that controls the movement of the first plug 201 and the second plug 202 while simultaneously controlling the rotation of the air supply mechanism, thereby achieving the reversal of the medium channel in the flow channel module A. This reversing structure uses a single driving component to move the first plug 201, the second plug 202, and the air supply mechanism. The same driving component can be used to simultaneously switch between different water and air paths, simplifying the overall structure and significantly reducing production costs.

[0074] In this embodiment, the commutation structure further includes:

[0075] The drive unit 30 is equipped with an output gear 301 that can rotate in both forward and reverse directions;

[0076] The transmission gear set 302 has an input wheel 3021 that meshes with the output gear 301 for transmission, and an output wheel 3022 that can swing between the first plug 201 and the second plug 202 as the output gear 301 rotates forward and backward.

[0077] The reversing groove 304 is located between the first plug 201 and the second plug 202 and is used to constrain the swing trajectory and swing endpoint of the output wheel 3022.

[0078] The first transmission assembly B is used to connect the first plug 201 and the output wheel 3022;

[0079] The second transmission assembly C is used to connect the second plug 202 and the output wheel 3022;

[0080] A baffle 101 is rotatably disposed at the inlet of the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b, and is used to control the opening of one of them;

[0081] The push rod 7 has a first end that is linked to the second plug 202 and / or the second plug 202, and a second end that is linked to the baffle 101 and is used to drive the baffle 101 to rotate between the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b.

[0082] Using the aforementioned reversing structure, the first drainage section 11a and the second drainage section 21a are water channels, and the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b are air channels. The first plug 201 and the second plug 202 can control the opening and closing of the two water channels respectively. The baffle 101 can switch positions between the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b to achieve selective connection of the two. That is, for a channel structure integrating multiple water and air channels, simultaneous switching of different water and air channels is achieved. In this embodiment, the same driving component 30 can be used to simultaneously switch between different water and air channels through multiple linkage structures. Furthermore, different water and air channels can be used in combination as needed to meet the drainage and air intake requirements of multiple containers.

[0083] The driving component 30 is a motor, and the output end of the motor is connected to the output gear 301. The transmission gear set 302 is a reduction gear set that meshes with the output wheel 3022. This structure facilitates the power output and control of the driving component 30.

[0084] The first plug 201 can move back and forth along its length and its first end extends into the first drainage section 11a. The first transmission assembly B is connected to the second end of the first plug 201. This structure facilitates the control of the opening and closing of the first drainage section 11a by moving the first plug 201, while the first transmission assembly B is used to realize the power transmission between the first plug 201 and the drive member 30.

[0085] The first transmission assembly B includes a first transmission wheel 204 and a first drive wheel 205. The first transmission wheel 204 is used to engage with the output wheel 3022 when it is swinging over. The first drive wheel 205 engages with the first transmission wheel 204 and slides with the second end of the first plug 201, driving the first plug 201 to move back and forth by its rotation. With this structure, the circumferential rotational force output by the drive member 30 is converted into the driving force for the first plug 201 to move back and forth in the length direction, so as to drive the first plug 201 to open or close the first drainage section 11a as needed.

[0086] The second end of the first plug 201 is provided with a first elongated hole 203 arranged perpendicular to its length direction, and the side of the first drive wheel 205 is provided with a first limiting shaft 206 arranged near the edge and slidingly and rotatingly engaging with the first elongated hole 203. The first limiting shaft 206 is actually eccentrically arranged relative to the first driving force. This structure facilitates the control of the reciprocating movement of the first plug 201 in the length direction by the rotation of the first drive wheel 205.

[0087] The second plug 202 can move back and forth along its length, with its first end extending into the second drainage section 21a. The second transmission assembly C is connected to the second end of the second plug 202. This structure facilitates the control of the opening and closing of the second drainage section 21a through the movement of the second plug 202, while the second transmission assembly C is used to realize the power transmission between the second plug 202 and the drive member 30.

[0088] The second transmission assembly C includes a second transmission wheel 2023 and a second drive wheel 2024. The second transmission wheel 2023 is used to engage with the output wheel 3022 when it swings over. The second drive wheel 2024 engages with the second transmission wheel 2023 and slides with the second end of the second plug 202, driving the second plug 202 to move back and forth by its rotation. With this structure, the circumferential rotational force output by the drive member 30 is converted into a driving force for the second plug 202 to move back and forth in the longitudinal direction, so as to drive the second plug 202 to open or close the second drainage section 21a as needed.

[0089] The second end of the second plug 202 is provided with a second elongated hole 2021 arranged perpendicular to its length direction, and the side of the second drive wheel 2024 is provided with a second limiting shaft 2025 arranged near the edge and slidingly and rotatingly engaging with the second elongated hole 2021. The second limiting shaft 2025 is actually eccentrically arranged relative to the second driving force, and this structure facilitates the control of the reciprocating movement of the second plug 202 in the length direction by rotating the second drive wheel 2024.

[0090] The reversing groove 304 is an arc-shaped structure arranged between the first plug 201 and the second plug 202, with air supplied to the plugs in the middle. The shaft of the output wheel 3022 is slidably and rotatably constrained in the reversing groove 304. With this structure, as the reduction gear set runs, the output wheel 3022 can oscillate under the guidance and constraint of the reversing groove 304 while rotating, thereby enabling the driving member 30 to be linked with one of the first plug 201 and the second plug 202. That is, the driving of both plugs is achieved through one driving member 30.

[0091] The upper end of the baffle 101 is rotatably mounted between the inlets of the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b, and always maintains a tendency to close one of the inlets of the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b. The push rod 7 drives the baffle 101 to rotate by reciprocating along its length, thereby switching the position between the inlets of the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b. With this structure, it is easy to switch the usage state of the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b by moving the plug along its length to drive the baffle 101 to rotate.

[0092] The reversing structure also includes a toggle member 5 located on the back of the baffle 101. A limiting shaft 50, connected to the upper end of the baffle 101 and driving its rotation, is located in the middle of the toggle member 5. One end of the toggle member 5 is constrained by an elastic member 6 to keep the baffle 101 in a tendency to close one inlet of the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b. The other end of the toggle member 5 is linked to the push rod 7, and the toggle member 5 rotates as the push rod 7 reciprocates along its length. This structure enables the linkage between the plug and the baffle 101 through the push rod 7 and the toggle member 5, achieving synchronous driving of both plugs and the baffle 101 using only one drive member 30.

[0093] In this embodiment, the push rod 7 has an outwardly extending baffle 71 at one end near the drive member 30. Correspondingly, the second end of the first plug 201 or the second plug 202 has a limiting protrusion 207 that abuts against the outer side of the baffle 71. The limiting protrusion 207 cooperates with the baffle 71 to push the push rod 7 to the actuating member 5 during the stroke of the plug blocking the corresponding flow channel. The actuating member 5 rotates against the elastic force of the elastic member 6, thereby driving the baffle 101 to switch the inlet position of the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b. With the above structure, the linkage between the plug and the push rod 7 is realized. In this embodiment, the second plug 202 is preferably connected to the push rod 7.

[0094] A first connecting arm 51 extending radially along the limiting axis is provided on one side of the actuating member 5. The upper end of the first connecting arm 51 is connected to the first end of the elastic member 6, and the second end of the elastic member 6 is constrained to the side of the first connecting arm 51 and applies a tension force to the first connecting arm 51. This structure facilitates the maintenance of the actuating member 5 and the baffle 101 in an original state by means of the elastic member 6.

[0095] On the other side of the actuating element 5, a second connecting arm 52 extending radially along the limiting axis is provided. The second connecting arm 52 has an L-shaped structure, and the free end of the push rod 7 is arranged corresponding to and in contact with the semi-enclosed cavity of the L-shaped structure. This structure facilitates the rotation of the actuating element 5 by moving the push rod 7, which in turn drives the baffle 101 to rotate accordingly.

[0096] A separating rib 208 is provided between the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b to separate them. The first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b merge upstream of the separating rib 208 to form a confluence section 1c. A baffle 101 is rotatably disposed in the confluence section 1c, with its first end rotatably constrained to the end of the separating rib 208. This structure facilitates the installation of the baffle 101 and provides reliability when switching between the use states of the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b.

[0097] Preferably, the end of the separating rib 208 is provided with a first sealing rib 208a that gradually extends towards the first sidewall of the upstream confluence section 1c, and a second sealing rib 208b that extends towards the second sidewall of the confluence section 1c. The first sealing rib 208a and the second sealing rib 208b are used to contact and cooperate with the baffle 101 to form a seal. With the above structure, the position of the baffle 101 can be limited on the one hand, and the sealing performance after the flow channel is switched can be improved on the other hand.

[0098] In this embodiment, with the first plug 201 blocking the first drainage section 11a, the baffle 101 blocks the second air supply channel 2b, thus opening the first air supply channel 1b; with the second plug 202 blocking the second drainage section 21a, the baffle 101 blocks the first air supply channel 1b, thus opening the second air supply channel 2b. This structure enables the coordinated use of the first drainage section 11a, the second drainage section 21a, the first air supply channel 1b, and the second air supply channel 2b to meet the diverse cleaning needs of different containers.

[0099] The first drainage section 11a is connected to the first container 01, the second drainage section 21a is connected to the second container 02, the first air supply channel 1b is connected to the first container 01, and the second air supply channel 2b is connected to the second container 02. With this structure, the coordinated use of the first drainage section 11a, the second drainage section 21a, the first air supply channel 1b, and the second air supply channel 2b allows for switching between non-drainage / air intake states for the first container 01 and non-drainage / air intake states for the second container 02, thus meeting the needs of electromechanical cleaning of different containers.

[0100] The first drainage section 11a and the second drainage section 21a extend vertically, and a vertically extending drainage channel 1c is provided on their sides. The side walls of the first drainage section 11a and the second drainage section 21a each have openings that communicate with the drainage channel 1c. The first plug 201 and the second plug 202 are moved to open or close the corresponding openings, thereby controlling the flow of the first drainage section 11a and the second drainage section 21a. The drainage channel 1c can be a main drainage channel, and drainage of the corresponding containers can be achieved by controlling the connection and disconnection with the first drainage section 11a and the second drainage section 21a, simplifying the overall structure of the channel module.

[0101] In this embodiment, the first plug 201, the second plug 202, and the baffle 101 are linked to and driven by the same driving component 30. The driving component 30 can be installed on the flow channel module, occupying very little installation space, and multiple different flow channels can be switched after one assembly, which is convenient for assembly and greatly reduces production costs.

[0102] The flow channel module A has a first assembly port 01a corresponding to the outlet end of the first water supply channel 1a. A first drainage section 11a is used to drain water from the first container 01, and its inlet end shares the first assembly port 01a with the outlet end of the first water supply channel 1a. The flow channel module A also has a second assembly port 02a corresponding to the outlet end of the second water supply channel 2a. A second drainage section 21a is used to drain water from the second container 02, and its inlet end shares the second assembly port 02a with the outlet end of the second water supply channel 2a. This structure reduces the number of openings on the cleaning container, lowers production difficulty and cost, and simplifies the connection structure within the flow channel module, facilitating manufacturing.

[0103] The first air supply channel 1b is used to supply air to the first container 01, and the second air supply channel 2b is used to supply air to the second container 02. The inlet ends of the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b are equipped with air supply mechanisms 3 that communicate with the open channels. This structure facilitates air supply to different containers, enabling bubbling cleaning.

[0104] The following will describe in detail the cooperation structure between the flow channel module A and the reversing structure in this embodiment.

[0105] The flow channel module A in this embodiment includes a first water supply channel 1a for supplying water to the first container 01 and a first air supply channel 1b for supplying air to the first container 01, a second water supply channel 2a for supplying water to the second container 02 and a second air supply channel 2b for supplying air to the second container 02. The first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b converge and connect to the air supply mechanism 3 upstream. By integrating the first water supply channel 1a, the first air supply channel 1b, the second water supply channel 2a, and the second air supply channel 2b, which can supply water and air to the two containers respectively, into a single water and air supply module, and with the two air supply channels sharing a single air supply mechanism 3, the overall structure is simplified, which helps to reduce production costs.

[0106] In this embodiment, a first control mechanism 10, which is connected to the gas supply mechanism 3, is provided at the confluence of the first gas supply channel 1b and the second gas supply channel 2b. This structure facilitates the sharing of a single gas supply mechanism 3 between the two containers, and the gas supply mechanism 3 is preferably a fan.

[0107] In this embodiment, the flow channel module A is provided with a drainage flow channel 1c that is connected to the first water supply flow channel 1a and the second water supply flow channel 2a respectively. The output end of the first water supply flow channel 1a and the inlet end of the drainage flow channel 1c share an opening, and the output end of the second water supply flow channel 2a and the inlet end of the drainage flow channel 1c share an opening, which helps to further simplify the structure of the container and the flow channel structure within the water and gas supply module.

[0108] In the first state, the first air supply channel 1b is connected to the air supply mechanism 3, and the first water supply channel 1a is separated from the drainage channel 1c. In the second state, the second air supply channel 2b is connected to the air supply mechanism 3, and the second water supply channel 2a is separated from the drainage channel 1c. Through the switching of the above states, in the first state, the first container 01 is in operation, and in the second state, the second container 02 is in operation. By adopting this switching method, the use and drainage states of the first container 01 and the second container 02 are mutually independent and mutually adaptable.

[0109] Specifically, when the first container 01 is in use, the first air supply channel 1b is connected to the air supply mechanism 3, and the first water supply channel 1a is isolated from the drainage channel 1c. When the second container 02 is in use, the second air supply channel 2b is connected to the air supply mechanism 3, and the second water supply channel 2a is isolated from the drainage channel 1c. Using the above method, the first container 01 and the second container 02 can share the integrated flow channel module. The ingenuity of this method lies in the fact that when the first container 01 is in use, water needs to enter the first water supply channel 1a instead of draining it. At this time, the first water supply channel 1a used to supply water to the first container 01 is isolated from the drainage channel 1c. The first water supply channel 1a used to supply water to the first container 01 can normally enter water without being drained through the drainage channel. At the same time, the first air supply channel 1a is connected to the air supply mechanism 3, so after the first container 01 enters water, water can be supplied to the second container 02 through the first air supply channel 1b. A container 01 is supplied with air to meet bubbling cleaning or other bubbling needs. When the second container 02 is in use, water needs to enter through the second water supply channel 2a instead of draining. In this case, the second water supply channel 2a, used to supply water to the second container 02, is isolated from the drain channel 1c. Water can enter through the second water supply channel 2a normally without being drained through the drain channel 1c. Simultaneously, the second air supply channel 2b is connected to the air supply mechanism 3. After water enters the second container 02, air can be supplied to the second container 02 through the second air supply channel 2b to meet bubbling cleaning or other bubbling needs. Preferably, when the first water supply channel 1a is connected to the drain channel 1c to drain the first container 01, the second water supply channel 1b is isolated from the drain channel 1c; when the second water supply channel 1b is connected to the drain channel 1c to drain the second container 02, the first water supply channel 1a is isolated from the drain channel 1c. In this way, when one container is draining, airflow interference caused by the connection between the water inlet and the drainage channel 1c of the other container is avoided, thereby improving drainage efficiency and cleanliness.

[0110] In this embodiment, the flow channel module A has a first water inlet 001 corresponding to the outlet end of the first water supply channel 1a, a first air inlet 100 corresponding to the outlet end of the first air supply channel 1b, a second water inlet 002 corresponding to the outlet end of the second water supply channel 2a, and a second air inlet 200 corresponding to the outlet end of the second air supply channel 2b. The first water inlet 001 and the second water inlet 002 serve as both water inlets and outlets. In conjunction with the corresponding water supply channel and drainage channel 1c, they achieve automated water inlet and outlet, are convenient to use, simplify the structure, and facilitate production and assembly.

[0111] The first water inlet 001 and the first air inlet 100 are arranged side-by-side horizontally, and the second water inlet 002 and the second air inlet 200 are arranged side-by-side horizontally and located below the first water inlet 001 and the first air inlet 100. The first water inlet 001 and the first air inlet 100 are located on the first side wall of the flow channel module, and the second water inlet 002 and the second air inlet 200 are located on the second side wall of the flow channel module opposite to the first side wall. Using this structure, water and air can be supplied to the containers on both sides of the flow channel module, shortening the media transport path and improving operating efficiency.

[0112] In this embodiment, the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b extend from bottom to top and, after passing over the corresponding air inlet with an inverted U-shaped section, connect downwards to the corresponding air inlet. The first water supply channel 1a and the second water supply channel 2a extend from bottom to top, bend beside the corresponding water outlet, and then connect to the corresponding water inlet. This structure facilitates smooth transport of the medium.

[0113] The first water supply channel 1a has a downwardly extending first drainage section 11a near the outlet end. A first drainage outlet 12a, connected to the drainage channel 1c, is located on the side of this first drainage section 11a. The upper end of the first water supply channel 1a passes over the first water inlet 001 in an inverted U-shaped section, then bends downwards and laterally to connect with the first water inlet 001. This U-shaped section extends downwards corresponding to the lower end of the first water inlet 001 to form the first drainage section 11a. This structure facilitates the partial sharing of the first water supply channel 1a and the drainage channel 1c. The second water supply channel 2a has a downwardly extending second drainage section 21a near the outlet end. A second drainage outlet 22a, connected to the drainage channel 1c, is located on the side of this second drainage section 21a. The upper end of the second water supply channel 2a passes over the second water outlet 002 with an inverted U-shaped section, then bends downward and upward to connect with the second water outlet 002. The lower end of the upwardly bent section extends laterally and then downward to form the second drainage section 21a. With the above structure, it is easy to realize the partial sharing of the second water supply channel 2a and the drainage channel 1c.

[0114] In this embodiment, the side of the drainage channel 1c is connected to the first water supply channel 1a via the first drain outlet 12a and to the second water supply channel 2a via the second drain outlet 22a. A portion of the first plug 201 extends into the first drainage section 11a and moves back and forth to control the opening and closing of the first drain outlet 12a. A portion of the second plug 202 extends into the second drainage section 21a and moves back and forth to control the opening and closing of the second drain outlet 22a. With the corresponding channel in a water-filled state, the above structure closes the corresponding drain outlet through the corresponding plug to prevent leakage.

[0115] The upstream of the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b merge to form a confluence section 1d. The switching of the usage state of the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b is achieved by the swinging of the baffle 101, which is convenient to operate.

[0116] In this embodiment, the power mechanism (i.e., the drive unit 30) is linked to the first plug 201, the second plug 202, and the baffle 101 via a transmission structure, thereby controlling the first water supply channel 1a to be isolated from the drainage channel 1c when the first air supply channel 1b is connected to the air supply mechanism 3; and the second water supply channel 2a to be isolated from the drainage channel 1c when the second air supply channel 2b is connected to the air supply mechanism 3. The drive unit 30 is preferably a motor, with its output shaft facing downwards and connected to an output gear 301, which meshes with the transmission structure. Using this structure, the movement of the first plug 201 and the second plug 202 is associated with the rotation of the baffle 101, facilitating the coordinated use of the corresponding water supply channel and air supply channel.

[0117] In this embodiment, the first plug 201 and the second plug 202 are arranged side by side, with the second plug 202 at the top and the first plug 201 at the bottom. The flow channels corresponding to the two are relatively independent and do not interfere with each other in the flow channel module due to the different recess depths. The output end of the drive member 30 is connected to the transmission gear set 302, which is the aforementioned transmission structure and is a reduction gear set. The output wheel 303 of the transmission gear set 302 can rotate and oscillate back and forth between the first plug 201 and the second plug 202. The output end of the drive member 30 rotates clockwise to drive the output wheel 303 to oscillate towards the first plug 201 and link with the first plug 201 to close the first drain outlet 12a. The output end of the drive member 30 rotates counterclockwise to drive the output wheel 303 to oscillate towards the second plug 202 and link with the second plug 202 to close the second drain outlet 22a. With the above structure, the output wheel 303 is driven by the drive component 30 and the transmission structure to swing between the first plug 201 and the second plug 202. After swinging upward, it is linked with the second plug 202 and disengaged from the first plug 201. After swinging downward, it is linked with the first plug 201 and disengaged from the second plug 202, thereby realizing the corresponding opening or closing of the first drain outlet 12a and the second drain outlet 22a.

[0118] The aforementioned output wheel 303 has a vertically oriented reversing groove 304 corresponding to the first plug 201 and the second plug 202, arching towards them. The shaft 3031 of the output wheel 303 can be slidably constrained in the reversing groove 304, thereby realizing the reciprocating oscillation of the output wheel 303. With the above structure, the output wheel 303 can swing along the reversing groove 304 to the corresponding plug depending on its rotation direction, and further drive the corresponding plug to move back and forth through rotation, thereby opening or closing the corresponding drain outlet.

[0119] To facilitate the linkage between the output wheel 303 and the corresponding plug, a first transmission assembly B is provided between the first plug 201 and the reversing groove 304. This first transmission assembly B connects the output wheel 303 and the first plug 201. A second transmission assembly C is provided between the second plug 202 and the reversing groove 304. This second transmission assembly C connects the output wheel 303 and the second plug 202. The first and second transmission assemblies adopt the same structural method.

[0120] In this embodiment, the end of the first plug 201 near the first transmission assembly is provided with a first elongated hole 203 arranged perpendicular to the movement direction of the first plug 201. The first transmission assembly B includes a first transmission wheel 204 and a first drive wheel 205. When the output wheel 303 slides to the first end (lower end) of the reversing groove 304, the first transmission wheel 204 contacts and meshes with the output wheel 303, and the first drive wheel 205 meshes and drives with the first transmission wheel 204. The side wall of the first drive wheel 205 is provided with a first limiting shaft 206 arranged near its edge and slidingly engaged with the first elongated hole 203. The second plug 202 has a second elongated hole 2021 arranged perpendicular to the movement direction of the second plug 202 at its end near the second transmission assembly. The second transmission assembly C includes a second transmission wheel 2022 and a second drive wheel 2023. When the output wheel 303 slides to the second end (upper end) of the reversing groove 304, the second transmission wheel 2023 contacts and engages with the output wheel 303, and the second drive wheel 2024 engages and drives the second transmission wheel 2023. The side wall of the second drive wheel 2024 is provided with a second limiting shaft 2025 arranged near its edge and slidingly engaged with the second elongated hole 2021. The above scheme facilitates the axial reciprocating movement of the corresponding plug by rotating the output wheel 303.

[0121] In this embodiment, the water and gas supply module A is externally equipped with a toggle member 5 connected to the baffle 101 and capable of rotating the baffle 101. The toggle member 5 is linked to the first plug 201 or the second plug 202 and switches the flow state of the first drainage section 11a and the second drainage section 21a as the corresponding plug moves back and forth. By rotating the toggle member 5, the baffle 101 can be driven to swing, thereby switching the flow state of the first drainage section 11a and the second drainage section 21a.

[0122] The upper end of the aforementioned actuating member 5 is connected to an elastic member 6 that can apply a pulling force to it, thereby keeping the baffle 101 in a tendency to close the second air supply channel 2b. The elastic member 6 is preferably a spring. The lower end of the actuating member 5 is provided with a push rod 7 that can overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 6 and drive the baffle 101 to close the first air supply channel 1b. The end of the push rod 7 is linked with the second plug 202. The push rod 7 pushes the actuating member 5 as the second plug 202 moves toward the second drain outlet 22a, and cancels the pushing force on the actuating member 5 as the second plug 202 moves away from the second drain outlet 22a. With the above structure, when the second plug 202 moves toward the second drain outlet 22a to close the second drain outlet 22a, the second plug 202 synchronously drives the push rod 7 to move toward the actuating member 5 and pushes the actuating member 5. The actuating member 5 overcomes the elastic force of the elastic member 6 and rotates toward the push rod 7, causing the baffle 101 to rotate into the first air supply channel 1b and close the first air supply channel 1b. At this time, the second air supply channel 2b opens and the second drain outlet 22a closes, allowing water to enter the second container 02. The second plug 202 moves away from the second drain outlet 22a and opens the second drain outlet 22a. At the same time, the second plug 202 gradually releases the pushing force on the push rod 7. The push rod 7 and the actuating member 5 are reset under the elastic force of the elastic member 6, which drives the baffle 101 to rotate into the second air supply channel 2b and closes the second air supply channel 2b. At this time, the first air supply channel 1b is opened and the first drain outlet 12a is closed. The first container 01 can be filled with water and air to achieve electro-cleaning.

[0123] To facilitate the swinging of the baffle 101, the central part of the actuating member 5 is rotatably constrained on the side wall of the flow channel module and is provided with a limiting shaft 50 that can pass through the side wall. The limiting shaft 50 is connected to the upper end of the baffle 101. The limiting shaft 50 is a non-cylindrical structure to drive the baffle 101 to rotate synchronously.

[0124] In this embodiment, a separating rib 208 is provided between the first air supply channel 1b and the second air supply channel 2b to separate them. Below the separating rib 208, a first sealing rib 208a and a second sealing rib 208b are provided, both extending downwards and towards the opposite sidewall of the confluence section 1d. The upper end of the baffle 101 is rotatably connected to the lower part of the separating rib 208 and can contact and cooperate with the lower edges of the first and second sealing ribs. With the above structure, the position of the baffle 101 can be limited, and the sealing performance after the air supply channel is switched can be improved.

[0125] The baffle 101 has a V-shaped structure at its upper end, and both ends of the V-shaped structure extend toward the partition rib 208 to form limiting portions 102 that abut against and limit the movement of the partition rib 208. The limiting portions 102 can abut against the corresponding sidewalls of the partition rib 208 after the baffle 101 has moved into place, thereby achieving positioning.

[0126] Using this embodiment, as Figure 7 , 8 As shown in Figure 9, when the flow channel module A needs to supply water, air, and drain water to the first container 01, the second plug 202 moves away from the second drain outlet 22a until the second drain outlet 22a is opened. Simultaneously, the second plug 202 gradually releases the pushing force on the push rod 7. The push rod 7 and the actuating element 5 reset under the elastic force of the elastic element 6, causing the baffle 101 to rotate into the second air supply channel 2b, closing the second air supply channel 2b. At this time, the first air supply channel 1b opens, the first drain outlet 12a closes, and the first container 01 can receive water and air to achieve electro-cleaning. Figure 10 , 11 As shown, when the flow channel module needs to supply water, air, and drain water to the second container 02, the second plug 202 moves toward the second drain outlet 22a to close the second drain outlet 22a. Simultaneously, the second plug 202 drives the push rod 7 to move toward the actuating member and pushes the actuating member. The actuating member overcomes the elastic force of the elastic member 6 and rotates toward the push rod 7, causing the baffle 101 to rotate into the first air supply channel 1b and close the first air supply channel 1b. At this time, the second air supply channel 2b is opened and the second drain outlet 22a is closed, allowing the second container 02 to take in water and air to achieve electromechanical cleaning.

[0127] In this embodiment, the flow channel module A can also be provided with a soft water inlet flow channel 8, and a corresponding flow meter 81, for quantitatively supplying soft water. The flow channel module A can also be provided with an exhaust overflow channel 80 to discharge water vapor from the flow channel module.

[0128] This embodiment can be based on the applicant's prior patent ZL 202521553877.3 "Food Washing Tank and Washing Device", in which a detachable washing tank 9 is provided in the first container 01 and the second container 02. The washing tank 9 itself has a water inlet channel, a drainage channel, an air inlet channel and a bubble structure. This structure is detachably connected to the corresponding flow channel module A through the first assembly port 01a or the second assembly port 02a to realize the electro-hydraulic cleaning of a fixed volume.

[0129] The side wall of the cleaning tank 9 is provided with a water guide 91 corresponding to the first water inlet 001 and the second water inlet 002, and an air guide 92 corresponding to the first air outlet 100 and the second air outlet 200. When the cleaning tank 9 is placed in the first container 01, the first side of the cleaning tank 9 is arranged facing forward so that the water guide 91 is connected to the first water inlet 001 and the air guide 92 is connected to the first air outlet 100. When the cleaning tank 9 is placed in the second container 02, the first side of the cleaning tank 9 is arranged facing backward so that the water guide 91 is connected to the second water inlet 002 and the air guide 92 is connected to the second air outlet 200. In this embodiment, the first container 01 and the second container 02 have their assembly ports located on their opposite sidewalls to facilitate the sharing of the flow channel module A and to fully utilize the gap between the first container 01 and the second container 02. This results in the inlet on one side of the cleaning tank 9 not being able to correspond to the assembly port on the sidewall of the second container 02 when the cleaning tank 9 is directly transferred from the first container 01 to the second container 02. Therefore, when in use, the cleaning tank 9 is rotated 180 degrees, thus achieving the goal of setting only one set of inlets on one side of the cleaning tank 9, which can be adapted to the assembly ports on the adjacent two containers and adjacent walls. Of course, inlets can also be started on both sides of the cleaning tank 9, so that the cleaning tank 9 does not need to be rotated when switching between the first container and the second container. However, this method makes the processing difficulty and structure of the cleaning tank 9 slightly more complex.

[0130] It should be noted that the description of the cleaning tank being located in the first container or the second container is not limited to the arrangement where the entire cleaning tank is located inside the first container / second container in the height direction. It can also be an arrangement where part of the cleaning tank is above the top opening of the first container / second container.

[0131] The cleaning device in this embodiment can be controlled by a voice module, which is equipped with a controller, a voice receiving module, and a voice parsing module. The voice receiving module receives user commands, and the voice parsing module parses the commands. Based on the parsed commands, the controller controls the cleaning device to perform corresponding operations, thereby realizing intelligent control of the cleaning device and improving the user experience.

[0132] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0133] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of the present invention, and while the descriptions are specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of this patent should be determined by the appended claims.
