Through the arrangement of the support plate 801, the water tank 802, the water storage pipe 803, the water outlet pipe 804, the water pump 805, the valve 806 and the nozzle 807, the ground needs to be sprinkled with water before cleaning. To prevent water evaporation, it can be cleaned while sprinkling water. At this time, water is filled into the water tank 802 above the support plate 801 from the water storage pipe 803, the valve 806 above the water pump 805 is opened, the water in the water tank 802 is pumped out from the water outlet pipe 804 and sent to the nozzle 807, and the nozzle 807 sprays water to sprinkle water on the ground, and cleaning is carried out while sprinkling water, which greatly improves the efficiency of equipment use.

[0025] Furthermore, the cleaning mechanism 9 includes a motor slot 901, a motor 902, a rotating shaft 903, a turntable 904, a brush 905 and a sponge 906. The bottom surface of the cleaning vehicle 1 is provided with a motor slot 901, the inner wall surface of the motor slot 901 is fixedly connected to the motor 902, one end surface of the motor 902 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 903, one end surface of the rotating shaft 903 is fixedly connected to the turntable 904, the bottom surface of the turntable 904 is fixedly connected to the brush 905, and the bottom surface of the turntable 904 is fixedly connected to the sponge 906. Through the arrangement of the motor slot 901, the motor 902, the rotating shaft 903, the turntable 904, the brush 905 and the sponge 906, when it is necessary to clean the ground, start the motor 902, so that the motor 902 drives the rotating shaft 903 to operate in the motor slot 901, and at the same time the turntable 904 drives the brush 905 to rotate to clean the ground, and the sponge 906 can increase the effect of cleaning the ground.

[0026] Furthermore, the motor 902 rotates on the inner wall of the cleaning vehicle 1 through the motor slot 901, and the motor 902 and the rotating shaft 903 cooperate with each other to form a rotating structure. Through the setting of the motor 902 and the rotating shaft 903, the turntable 904 can drive the brush 905 and the sponge 906 to quickly clean the floor.

[0027] Furthermore, multiple groups of bolts 1003 are arranged on the surface of the fixing plate 1001, and are symmetrically arranged at the four corners of the fixing plate 1001 with respect to the central axis of the fixing plate 1001. Through the arrangement of the bolts 1003, the connection between the fixing plate 1001 and the cleaning vehicle 1 can be made more stable.

[0028] Working principle: First, the cleaning staff sits on the seat 5 above the cleaning vehicle 1 through the pedal 7, controls the steering wheel 4 to make the pulley 2 move the cleaning vehicle 1 for cleaning. Before using the cleaning vehicle 1, the wiper 1005 and the connecting block 1004 are attached to the tail of the cleaning vehicle 1 through the fixing plate 1001. When the threaded holes 1002 opened at the tail of the cleaning vehicle 1 are aligned with the threaded holes 1002 opened on the surface of the fixing plate 1001, the bolts 1003 pass through the two sets of threaded holes 1002 to fix the fixing plate 1001. 1001 is fixed at the rear of the cleaning vehicle 1. At this time, the first wiper 1005 can remove the water on the ground. When the area with moisture on the ground is large, the stopper 1011 can be pulled to make the spring 1010 pull the bayonet 1012 out of the adjustment hole 1009 on the inner wall of the second wiper 1008, slide the second wiper 1008, align the other set of adjustment holes 1009 with the fixing hole 1007, release the stopper 1011, and the spring 1010 will bounce the bayonet 1012 into the adjustment hole 1009. The second wiper plate 1008 is fixed in the node hole 1009, thereby increasing the area of ​​wiping water on the ground, greatly reducing the working time, and preventing residual water on the ground from causing passers-by to slip. When the ground needs to be cleaned, it is necessary to sprinkle water on the ground before cleaning. In order to prevent water evaporation, it can be cleaned while sprinkling water. At this time, water is filled into the water tank 802 above the support plate 801 from the water storage pipe 803, and the valve 806 above the water pump 805 is opened. The water in the water tank 802 is pumped out from the water outlet pipe 804 and sent to the nozzle 807. The nozzle 807 sprays water to sprinkle water on the ground. Sprinkling water and cleaning at the same time greatly improves the use efficiency of the equipment, and the motor 902 is started, so that the motor 902 drives the rotating shaft 903 to operate in the motor slot 901. At the same time, the turntable 904 drives the brush 905 to rotate to clean the ground. The sponge 906 can increase the effect of cleaning the ground. In this way, the use process of a ground cleaning device for cleaning services is completed.

[0029] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
