[0044] The utility model provides a cleaning device which can prevent the liquid on the liquid storage container from entering into the seam of the base.

[0045] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0046] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cleaning device provided by the embodiment of the utility model includes a base, a mounting seat 3 and a liquid storage container, as well as a motor 6, a pump and other charged bodies. Among them: the base includes a first shell 1 and a second shell 2 arranged on the left and right, and after the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 are connected, at least part of their area defines a first chamber; the motor 6, the pump and other charged bodies are at least partially accommodated in the first chamber, and the motor 6 is used to generate a vacuum to form a fluid path between the inlet and the outlet; the liquid storage container includes a dirty liquid container and a clean liquid container, the dirty liquid container is at least partially located on the fluid path to collect dirty liquid, and the clean liquid container is used to store clean liquid; the mounting seat 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the base and covers the joint 10 between the first shell 1 and the second shell 2, and the dirty liquid container and the clean liquid container are detachably mounted on the mounting seat 3, and the mounting seat 3 blocks the liquid from flowing from the joint 10 into the channel in the first chamber.

[0047] It can be seen that in the cleaning device, since the mounting seat 3 is arranged on the top of the base, the joint 10 between the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 can be covered by the mounting seat 3, thereby preventing the overflow of liquid from the liquid storage container and the external wall water from entering the base joint to cause safety hazards, which is beneficial to improving the safety performance of the equipment and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0048] In some embodiments, the mounting seat 3 includes a bottom plate 31 and a side plate 32. The bottom plate 31 is an integrated structure, which is arranged on the base, located at the bottom of the liquid storage container, and can cover the seam 10 at the top of the base; the side plate 32 is integrally connected to the bottom plate 31, and is arranged around the upper side of the bottom plate 31 to form a baffle structure, and a water leakage hole 321 is arranged at the bottom of the side plate 32, and the lower side of the water leakage hole 321 is located on the upper surface of the bottom plate 31. Therefore, the mounting seat 3 can collect the overflow water of the liquid storage container to a certain extent, and the water leakage hole 321 can be used to drain water, and the drainage position can be kept away from the seam at the top of the base. Therefore, the mounting seat 3 can be used as a water collection device to collect water leaked normally or abnormally from the two liquid storage containers, and can also be used as a water leakage device to drain water from the water leakage hole to prevent water from entering the left and right shells.

[0049] In specific implementation, the opening of the water leakage hole 321 can be rectangular, circular, trapezoidal, triangular, polygonal or any other shape. In order to prevent water from accumulating in the mounting seat 3, it is preferred that the lower side of the water leakage hole 321 is a horizontal straight side and is flush with the upper surface of the bottom plate 31. Moreover, in some embodiments, the side plate 32 is provided with a plurality of water leakage holes 321 along the circumferential direction, and when the mounting seat 3 is placed horizontally, the lower sides of the plurality of water leakage holes 321 are located at the same horizontal height.

[0050] Considering that during the use of the cleaning device, the liquid storage container can be tilted and rotated forward and backward with the handle, and the mounting base 3 also tilts forward or backward with the whole device. Therefore, it is preferred to set the leakage hole 321 on the side wall of the mounting base 3 in both the front and rear directions, which helps the accumulated water to be quickly discharged from the leakage hole. For details, please refer to Figure 1, the water leakage hole 321 includes: a first water leakage hole located in the front side plate area of ​​the side plate 32; and / or, a second water leakage hole located in the rear side plate area of ​​the side plate 32. Specifically, the front side plate area can be designed as an arc-shaped plate structure with an opening facing backward and arching forward, and the first water leakage hole is located at the frontmost bottom end of the arc-shaped plate structure; and / or, the top of the base is provided with a longitudinal mounting cylinder for accommodating the handle of the cleaning device, the rear side plate area is provided with a first groove 322 for accommodating the longitudinal mounting cylinder, and the second water leakage hole is located on both sides of the first groove 322. However, it is not limited to this. In other embodiments, multiple water leakage holes 321 can also be arranged along the circumference of the whole machine in the front side plate area of ​​the side plate 32, or multiple water leakage holes 321 can also be arranged along the circumference of the whole machine on at least one side of the first groove 322 of the rear side plate area of ​​the side plate 32. Specifically, when the bottom plate 31 is in a horizontal state, the multiple water leakage holes 321 can be located at the same horizontal height. It should be noted here that, in a specific implementation, even if the leakage hole 321 is located just above the side seam 10 of the base, it will not cause water to seep into the seam 10, because the bottom plate 31 of the mounting base 3 covers the seam 10 at the top of the base, and when the leakage hole 321 and the side seam 10 of the base are aligned vertically, the liquid discharged from the leakage hole 321 will flow downward or evaporate along the side wall of the base, and it is difficult to enter the seam 10.

[0051] See also Figure 3 In some embodiments, the inner wall of the side plate 32 is provided with a reinforcing rib 325, and the reinforcing rib 325 is located above the first water leakage hole. The reinforcing rib 325 can improve the component strength of the front side plate area of ​​the side plate 32 and ensure the structural stability of the area.

[0052] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the bottom plate 31 is provided with a sink 311 near the water leakage hole 321 (for details, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The bottom surface of the sink 311 is flush with the lower side of the water leakage hole 321. Moreover, the above-mentioned liquid storage containers (including dirty liquid containers and clean liquid containers) are installed on the bottom plate 31 and connected to other raised areas outside the sink 311, so that the bottom of the liquid storage container is not lower than the height of the water leakage hole 321, which is conducive to the sink 311 to guide and collect the liquid outside the liquid storage container, and facilitate drainage through the water leakage hole 321, so as to avoid water accumulation in the central area of ​​the mounting seat 3 for a long time.

[0053] See also Figure 1 and Figure 4In some embodiments, a mounting hole for mounting a connector is provided at a position of the bottom plate 31 near the side plate 32, and the connector is used to connect the bottom plate 31 and the base. Moreover, a water retaining rib 312 is provided at a position of the bottom plate 31 near the side plate 32, and the water retaining rib 312 protrudes relative to the upper surface of the bottom plate 31, and is arranged around the outside of the mounting hole to form an annular baffle, or is located outside the partial side edge of the mounting hole and the two ends are respectively connected to the inner wall of the side plate 32 to form a closed water retaining structure, so that the water retaining rib 312 can prevent the accumulated water in the mounting seat 3 from entering the top of the base through the mounting hole to cause safety hazards.

[0054] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, claws 4 are respectively provided on both sides of the side panel 32, and the claws 4 include a first connection portion and a second connection portion. Among them: the first connection portion can be hinged with the side panel 32, and the side panel 32 is provided with a second groove 323 for installing the first connection portion; the inner side surface of the second connection portion is provided with a positioning protrusion that can extend into the side groove of the liquid storage container and be snap-fitted and positioned therewith. Specifically, the positioning protrusion includes: a first positioning protrusion 41 of a hollow rib structure, which can extend into the first positioning groove on the side of the liquid storage container (taking the dirty liquid container as an example) and be snap-fitted and positioned therewith, and the thickness of its top end for extending into the first positioning groove on the side of the liquid storage container is greater than the thickness of its root; and / or, a second positioning protrusion 42 of a plate-like structure, whose top is slightly bent downward, can extend into the second positioning groove on the side of the liquid storage container and be snap-fitted and positioned therewith.

[0055] Furthermore, at least one side of the second groove 323 of the side plate 32 is provided with a support ear 324, the top of which is protruding from the outer wall of the side plate 32 and protruding relative to the top edge of the side plate 32; correspondingly, the claw 4 is provided with a matching surface 43, and when the claw 4 is engaged with the liquid storage container, the matching surface 43 is in contact with the top of the support ear 324. Thus, the support ear 324 can play a certain role in guiding and positioning the rotation process of the claw 4, which is conducive to preventing the deformation and damage of the hinge shaft.
