[0056] In order to better understand the above-mentioned technical scheme, the technical scheme of the embodiments of the present application is described in detail below through the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments of the present application and the specific features in the embodiments are detailed descriptions of the technical scheme of the embodiments of the present application, rather than limitations on the technical scheme of the present application. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the technical features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0057] This application takes into account that the power supply structure in traditional technology, especially the power supply structure used in base stations, is mostly connected through springs, PCB board gold finger plug-in or POGO pin. In the form of spring power supply, water splashing on it during cleaning may cause the circuit to burn out; the form of PCB board gold finger plug-in is costly and also has poor waterproof performance; pogo pin is similar to spring design, and the ramp board assembly may vibrate during cleaning, which will cause unstable electrical signal transmission.

[0058] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, the first aspect of an embodiment of the present application proposes a base station, comprising: a ramp plate assembly 210; a base station body 220, the base station body 220 is used to accommodate the ramp plate assembly 210; a power supply structure 100, the power supply structure 100 comprises: a female head assembly 110, the female head assembly 110 comprises a socket 111; a male head assembly 120, the male head assembly 120 comprises a connector 121, the connector 121 is used to be inserted into the socket 111; a first sealing member 130, the first sealing member 130 is arranged on the male head assembly 120, is arranged around the connector 121, and is used to abut against the female head assembly 110; wherein, one of the female head assembly 110 and the male head assembly 120 is arranged on the ramp plate assembly 210, and the other is arranged on the base station body 220.

[0059] The power supply structure 100 of the base station provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a female component 110, a male component 120 and a first seal 130. When electrical connection is required, the connector 121 of the male component 120 can be plugged into the socket 111, and the female component 110 is connected to the male component 120 to achieve electrical connection or communication. In this case, the first seal 130 can be located between the female component 110 and the male component 120. Such a setting can reduce the probability of water vapor or other impurities invading between the male component 120 and the female component 110, and can reduce the probability of water invading the electrical connection between the base station body 220 and the ramp plate assembly 210, and can ensure the stable transmission of electrical signals and reduce the failure rate.

[0060] The base station provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a ramp assembly 210, a base station body 220 and a power supply structure 100. A receiving cavity for parking the cleaning device body can be formed in the base station body 220. The ramp assembly 210 is arranged in the receiving cavity for guiding the cleaning device body. At the same time, the ramp assembly 210 can also be used to clean and wash the cleaning parts on the cleaning device body. In order to facilitate the cleaning of the ramp assembly 210, the ramp assembly 210 can be removed from the receiving cavity, and one of the female head assembly 110 and the male head assembly 120 is arranged in the receiving cavity. One is arranged on the ramp plate assembly 210, and the other is arranged on the base station body 220. When the ramp plate assembly 210 is moved out, the male assembly 120 can be separated from the female assembly 110, and the electrical connection is disconnected. When the ramp plate assembly 210 is located in the accommodating cavity, the female assembly 110 can be connected to the male assembly 120, and the ramp plate assembly 210 can be electrically connected to the base station body 220. By arranging a first sealing member 130 on the power supply assembly, the intrusion of water vapor into the power supply structure 100 can be reduced, and the reliability of the electrical connection between the base station body 220 and the ramp plate assembly 210 can be ensured.

[0061] It can be understood that the power supply structure 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, when it is necessary to disconnect the electrical connection, only needs to separate the male component 120 from the female component 110, and the connector 121 can be removed through the socket 111 to disconnect the electrical connection. Taking the application of the power supply structure 100 on a base station as an example, the ramp plate assembly 210 is moved relative to the base station body 220 to separate the male component 120 from the female component 110 and disconnect the electrical connection.

[0062] The power supply structure 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application has a lower probability of being invaded by liquids than the connection methods of spring clips, PCB board gold finger insertion and POGO pin in traditional technologies, and the connection between the male component 120 and the female component 110 is more reliable and can be stably connected even under vibration.

[0063] like Figure 2 As shown, in a feasible implementation manner, the power supply structure 100 further includes: a second sealing member 140 , which is disposed on the female head component 110 and located on a side of the female head component 110 that is away from the male head component 120 .

[0064] In this technical solution, the power supply structure 100 may further include a second sealant 140. Based on this, when the power supply structure 100 is applied to a base station, the female head assembly 110 may be connected to the ramp plate assembly 210, and the ramp plate assembly 210 often comes into contact with liquid. By providing a second sealant 140 on one side of the female head assembly 110, the probability of water vapor intruding into the power supply structure 100 can be further reduced, thereby ensuring the reliability of power supply.

[0065] In a feasible implementation, the first sealing member 130 includes a silicone material. This configuration allows the first sealing member 130 to have waterproof properties and certain flexibility. When the first sealing member 130 is squeezed between the male component 120 and the female component 110, the first sealing member 130 can produce a certain deformation, which can further reduce the probability of water vapor intrusion.

[0066] In a feasible implementation, the second sealing member 140 includes a waterproof rubber ring. With such an arrangement, the second sealing member 140 has waterproof performance and can be waterproof in the circumferential direction of the female head assembly 110, and can be fully waterproof.

[0068] In this technical solution, a pin 112 is formed in the socket 111, and a needle sleeve 122 is formed in the connector 121. By plugging into the needle sleeve 122, the electrical connection between the female component 110 and the male component 120 can be achieved, making the electrical connection between the two more reliable.

[0070] In this technical solution, the power supply structure 100 may further include a first fixing portion 150. During use, the female head component 110 can be fixed on other devices through the first fixing portion 150, such as by screwing a screw through a fixing hole on the first fixing portion 150 and screwing it on other components to achieve fixation of the female head component 110, such as the female head component 110 can be fixed on the ramp plate component 210 through the first fixing portion 150.

[0071] In this technical solution, the power supply structure 100 may further include a second fixing portion 160. During use, the male head component 120 can be fixed on other devices through the second fixing portion 160, such as by screwing the male head component 120 through a fixing hole on the second fixing portion 160 and screwing it on other components to achieve fixation of the male head component 120, such as the male head component 120 can be fixed on the base station body 220 through the second fixing portion 160.

[0072] like Figures 4 to 6As shown, in a feasible implementation manner, the power supply structure 100 further includes: a cable 170 and a card connector 180 , wherein one end of the cable 170 is connected to the female connector assembly 110 , and the other end is connected to the card connector 180 .

[0073] In this technical solution, the power supply structure 100 may also include a cable 170 and a card connector 180. The card connector 180 may be card-connected to other components, and the line is then connected to the female head assembly 110 to transmit electrical signals to other components. The provision of the card connector 180 can make the electrical connection between the power supply structure 100 and other components more reliable.

[0074] like Figures 7 to 10 As shown, in a feasible implementation manner, the power supply structure 100 further includes: a plug-in 190, one end of the plug-in 190 is connected to the male head component 120, and the other end forms a contact.

[0075] In this technical solution, the power supply structure 100 may further include a plug-in 190 , based on which the male component 120 and other devices may be connected by plugging, making the electrical connection of the male component 120 more convenient.

[0076] like Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown, in a feasible embodiment, the base station also includes: a driving member 230, the driving member 230 is arranged in the ramp plate assembly 210, and the female head assembly 110 is connected to the driving member 230; a cleaning disk 240, the output end of the driving member 230 is connected to the cleaning disk 240, and is arranged on the ramp plate assembly 210.
