Detailed implementation manners
[0036] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions from beginning to end. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0037] The following disclosure provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing different structures of the present invention. To simplify the disclosure of the present invention, components and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples and are not intended to limit the present invention. In addition, the present invention may repeat reference numerals and / or letters in different examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplification and clarity, and does not itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed. In addition, the present invention provides examples of various specific processes and materials, but those of ordinary skill in the art can realize the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.
[0038] The cleaning device 100 according to the first aspect embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
[0039] As Figures 1 to 10As shown, the cleaning device 100 according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model includes: a body 1 and a mopping assembly. The mopping assembly includes a driving mechanism and a mopping member 2. The driving mechanism is arranged on the body 1 and is used to drive the mopping member 2 to move between a first working position and a second working position. In the first working position, at least a part of the mopping member 2 extends out of the outer peripheral surface of the body 1 in the left-right direction and forms an outer extended mopping portion 21. In the second working position, the mopping member 2 is located inside the outer peripheral surface of the body 1. That is to say, when the mopping member 2 is in the second working position, it can mop the area directly below the body 1. When it is necessary to mop areas such as corners that require edge cleaning, the driving mechanism drives the mopping member 2 to move from the second working position towards the first working position, so that the mopping member 2 gradually extends out of the side surface of the body 1 in the left-right direction. The part of the mopping member 2 that extends out of the body 1 in the left-right direction forms the outer extended mopping portion 21. Through the outer extended mopping portion 21, it can better extend to and cover edge areas such as corners, so that the edge areas such as corners can be cleaned by the friction between the outer extended mopping portion 21 and the ground at the corner during the movement of the cleaning device 100. In addition, when there is an obstacle in front of the outer extended mopping portion 21, the driving mechanism can drive the mopping member 2 to move from the first working position towards the second working position, thereby gradually reducing the part of the mopping member 2 that extends out of the body 1 in the left-right direction.
[0040] Thus, by driving the mopping member 2 to move to the first working position, the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100 on the ground of edge areas such as corners can be better improved. At the same time, by driving the mopping member 2 to move to the second working position, contact between the outer extended mopping portion 21 and the obstacle portion can be avoided, thereby avoiding the risk that the cleaning device 100 gets stuck and cannot move and the mopping member 2 gets stuck and cannot move, so as to improve the obstacle avoidance ability of the cleaning device 100 while improving the edge cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.
[0041] For the cleaning device 100 according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model, by driving the mopping member 2 to move to the first working position, the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100 on the ground of edge areas such as corners can be better improved. At the same time, by driving the mopping member 2 to move to the second working position, contact between the outer extended mopping portion 21 and the obstacle portion can be avoided, thereby avoiding the risk that the cleaning device 100 gets stuck and cannot move and the mopping member 2 gets stuck and cannot move, so as to improve the obstacle avoidance ability of the cleaning device 100 while improving the edge cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.
[0042] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the cleaning device further includes a recognition device. The recognition device is arranged on the body 1 and is electrically connected to the driving mechanism. The recognition device is used to detect obstacles in front of the outer extended mopping portion 21. When the recognition device detects an obstacle in front of the outer extended mopping portion 21, the driving mechanism drives the mopping member 2 to move from the first working position towards the second working position.
[0043] Herein, the "front" mentioned herein is relative to the forward direction of the cleaning device 100. That is to say, when the driving mechanism drives the mopping member 2 to move to the first working position for cleaning the ground in a corner or other edge-adjacent area, the extended mopping portion 21 protrudes from the outer peripheral surface of the body 1. When an obstacle appears in front of the extended mopping portion 21, the recognition device can detect the obstacle located in front of the extended mopping portion 21. Since the recognition device is electrically connected to the driving mechanism, the recognition device can transmit the detection signal to the driving mechanism. Therefore, when the recognition device detects an obstacle on the front side of the extended mopping portion 21, it transmits a signal to the driving mechanism. After receiving the signal detecting the existence of an obstacle in front of the extended mopping portion 21, the driving mechanism drives the mopping member 2 to move from the first working position towards the second working position. During this process, the part of the extended mopping portion 21 protruding from the body 1 in the left-right direction gradually retracts below the body 1. That is, before the obstacle contacts the extended mopping portion 21, the extended mopping portion 21 moves to a position spaced apart from the front obstacle in the left-right direction.
[0044] Thus, when the mopping member 2 is in the second working position for mopping the ground, through the cooperation of the recognition device and the driving mechanism, it is possible to avoid the contact between the extended mopping portion 21 and the obstacle in front of the extended mopping portion 21, thereby avoiding the risk that the cleaning device 100 gets stuck and cannot move and the mopping member 2 gets stuck and cannot move, so as to improve the obstacle avoidance ability of the cleaning device 100 while enhancing the edge cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.
[0045] It should be noted that the recognition device may include at least one of a lidar, a camera, an ultrasonic sensor, or an infrared sensor, so as to accurately judge the position of the obstacle in front of the extended mopping portion 21, thereby improving the accuracy of obstacle avoidance of the extended mopping portion 21.
[0046] In some embodiments, the driving mechanism is further configured to drive the mopping member 2 to move up and down. Therefore, when the cleaning device 100 is in the vacuuming mode, the driving mechanism can drive the mopping member 2 to rise so that the mopping member 2 is spaced apart from the ground; when the cleaning device 100 is in the mopping mode, the driving mechanism can drive the mopping member 2 to descend to contact the ground, and drive the mopping member 2 to rub against the ground through the movement of the cleaning device 100 to clean the dirt on the ground.
[0047] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the cleaning device 100 further includes a baffle 3, which is provided on the body 1 and has a first state. In the first state, at least a part of the baffle 3 extends to the outer peripheral side of the body 1 and is located in front of the mopping member 2. That is to say, when the driving mechanism drives the mopping member 2 to move to the first working position for cleaning the ground in the corner and other edge areas, the extended mopping part 21 protrudes from the outer peripheral surface of the body 1. When an obstacle appears in front of the extended mopping part 21, since the baffle 3 is located on the outer peripheral side of the body 1 and in front of the extended mopping part 21, that is, the baffle 3 blocks in front of the extended mopping part 211. When the extended mopping part 21 moves forward with the cleaning device 100 close to the obstacle, the obstacle first contacts the baffle 3. Thus, it can better avoid the extended mopping part 21 from contacting and jamming with the obstacle, and at the same time, it can avoid damage to the extended mopping part 21 caused by impact with the obstacle.
[0048] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the cleaning device 100 further includes a detection sensor. The detection sensor is used to detect the contact between the baffle 3 and the obstacle and is electrically connected to the driving mechanism. When the baffle 3 contacts the obstacle, the driving mechanism drives the mopping member 2 to move from the first working position towards the second working position.
[0049] That is to say, when the driving mechanism drives the mopping member 2 to move to the first working position for cleaning the ground in the corner and other edge areas, the extended mopping part 21 protrudes from the outer peripheral surface of the body 1. When an obstacle appears in front of the extended mopping part 21, since the baffle 3 is located on the outer peripheral side of the body 1 and in front of the extended mopping part 21, that is, the baffle 3 blocks in front of the extended mopping part 211. When the extended mopping part 21 moves forward with the cleaning device 100 close to the obstacle, the obstacle first contacts the baffle 3, and the detection sensor can detect the contact between the baffle 3 and the obstacle.
[0050] In other words, the baffle 3 is triggered when it contacts the obstacle, and since the detection sensor is electrically connected to the driving mechanism, when the baffle 3 contacts the obstacle, the detection sensor can transmit the detected signal of the contact between the baffle 3 and the obstacle to the driving mechanism. After receiving the contact signal, the driving mechanism drives the mopping member 2 to move from the first working position towards the second working position. During this process, the part of the extended mopping part 21 protruding from the body 1 in the left - right direction gradually retracts below the body 1. That is, before the obstacle contacts the extended mopping part 21, the extended mopping part 21 moves to a position spaced apart from the front obstacle in the left - right direction, which can avoid the extended mopping part 21 from contacting the obstacle part, thereby avoiding the risk that the cleaning device 100 gets stuck and cannot move and the mopping member 2 gets stuck and cannot move.
[0051] Therefore, when the mopping member 2 moves to the first working position to clean the ground in the edge area such as the corner, the obstacle in front of the protruding mopping portion 21 can be recognized by the recognition device to avoid obstacles. At the same time, the obstacle can be avoided through the contact between the baffle 3 and the obstacle and the action of the detection sensor. Thus, when the recognition device does not detect the obstacle in front of the protruding mopping portion 21, the detection sensor can stably drive the mopping member 2 to perform an avoidance action through the driving mechanism, and further improve the stability of obstacle avoidance of the protruding mopping portion 21.
[0052] In a specific example, the cleaning device 100 includes a recognition device, a baffle 3 and a detection sensor. Thus, the obstacle that appears in front of the protruding mopping portion 21 can be detected in advance by the recognition device when the mopping member 2 is in the first working position to achieve active avoidance; when the recognition device fails to detect the obstacle in time, the detection sensor can be triggered by the contact between the obstacle and the baffle 3, thus achieving passive avoidance. Therefore, through the cooperation of the recognition device, the baffle 3 and the detection sensor, active obstacle avoidance and passive obstacle avoidance of the protruding mopping portion 21 can be achieved to improve the obstacle avoidance ability.
[0053] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the detection sensor is a pressure sensor, and the detection sensor is used to detect the pressure borne by the baffle 3. It can be understood that when the baffle 3 contacts the obstacle, since the cleaning device 100 continues to move forward, the obstacle generates a backward reaction force on the baffle 3, that is, the baffle 3 bears the pressure exerted by the obstacle. In other words, when the pressure borne by the baffle 3 increases, it indicates that the obstacle has contacted the baffle 3 at this time. Thus, by detecting the pressure borne by the baffle 3 with the pressure sensor, it can be accurately determined whether the baffle 3 contacts the obstacle, so that the driving mechanism can accurately and timely drive the mopping member 2 to move towards the second working position before the obstacle contacts the protruding mopping portion 21, which is beneficial to improving the response speed and accuracy of obstacle avoidance of the protruding mopping portion 21.
[0054] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the detection sensor is disposed on the baffle 3 or the mopping member 2. That is to say, the detection sensor can be disposed on the baffle 3. For example, the detection sensor can be disposed on the outer side surface of the baffle 3, i.e., the side surface in contact with the obstacle. When the obstacle contacts the detection sensor, the pressure acting on the detection sensor increases, so that it can be determined that there is an obstacle in front of the outer mopping portion 21. Of course, the detection sensor can also be disposed between the baffle 3 and the fuselage 1. Since relative movement is possible between the baffle 3 and the fuselage 1, when the baffle 3 contacts the obstacle, the pressure of the baffle 3 acting on the fuselage 1 also increases. Therefore, by detecting the pressure change between the baffle 3 and the fuselage 1 through the detection sensor, it can also be determined whether the baffle 3 contacts the obstacle. In addition, the detection sensor can also be disposed on the mopping member 2, so as to determine whether the baffle 3 contacts the obstacle by the pressure change of the baffle 3 acting on the mopping member 2. For example, when the baffle 3 is in the first state, the rear end of the baffle 3 abuts against the outer mopping portion 21 in the left-right direction. When the baffle 3 contacts the obstacle, the baffle 3 bears the acting force of the obstacle, causing the pressure of the baffle 3 on the outer mopping portion 21 to increase. Therefore, it can be determined that the baffle 3 contacts the obstacle at this time by the increase in the pressure value of the baffle 3 acting on the mopping member 2.
[0055] It should be noted that only some types and some installation positions of the detection sensor are exemplified here to facilitate understanding of the working principle and cooperation mode of the baffle 3 and the detection sensor. The type and installation position of the detection sensor only need to meet the requirement that the signal of the contact between the baffle 3 and the obstacle can be accurately obtained. The type and installation position of the detection sensor are not specifically limited here. For example, the detection sensor can also be a displacement sensor. When the baffle 3 in the first state generates displacement, it indicates that the baffle 3 contacts the obstacle and is pushed by the obstacle. That is, it can be determined whether the baffle 3 contacts the obstacle according to the displacement of the baffle 3, etc. Details are not described one by one here.
[0056] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, in the first state, the baffle 3 extends obliquely away from the fuselage 1 in the front-to-back direction. The front end of the baffle 3 is located inside the outer peripheral surface of the fuselage 1, and the rear end of the baffle 3 is located on the side of the extended wiping portion 21 away from the fuselage 1 in the left-right direction. Thus, it is possible to avoid a gap in the left-right direction between the outer peripheral surface of the fuselage 1 and the front end of the baffle 3, thereby avoiding the risk of an obstacle getting stuck in the gap between the fuselage 1 and the front end of the baffle 3. At the same time, it is possible to avoid the end of the extended wiping portion 21 away from the fuselage 1 in the left-right direction protruding beyond the outer side surface of the rear end of the baffle 3 in the left-right direction. Herein, in the description of this article, the outer side surface refers to the side surface of the fuselage that is radially away from the center line of the fuselage. That is, it is ensured that the baffle 3 can completely cover the extended wiping portion 21 in the left-right direction, so that any obstacle appearing directly in front of the extended wiping portion 21 can first come into contact with the baffle 3. In addition, the obliquely arranged baffle 3 in the first state has a good guiding effect, which can avoid the obstacle having too large a frictional force with the baffle 3 and affecting the forward direction of the cleaning device 100.
[0057] In a specific example, when the wiping member 2 moves from the second working position towards the first working position, the right end of the wiping member 2 gradually extends out of the right side surface of the fuselage 1. The baffle 3 is provided on the right side surface of the fuselage 1. After the wiping member 2 moves to the second working position, the extended wiping portion 21 protrudes from the right side surface of the fuselage 1, and the rear end of the baffle 3 is located on the right side of the right side surface of the front end of the extended wiping portion 21.
[0058] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the baffle 3 further has a second state, and the baffle 3 is switchable between the first state and the second state. During the movement from the first state towards the second state, the portion of the baffle 3 located on the outer peripheral side of the fuselage 1 decreases. That is to say, during the movement of the baffle 3 from the first state towards the second state, the portion of the baffle 3 protruding from the outer peripheral surface of the fuselage 1 moves towards the direction close to the center of the fuselage 1. Thus, after the baffle 3 moves to the second state, the length of the baffle protruding from the outer peripheral surface of the fuselage 1 can be reduced, thereby reducing the risk of interference between the baffle 3 and an obstacle during the movement of the cleaning device 100, and further reducing the risk of the contact between the baffle 3 and an obstacle affecting the traveling stability of the cleaning device 100.
[0059] Specifically, when the wiping member 2 is in the second working position, the extended wiping portion 21 is located inside the outer peripheral surface of the fuselage 1. At this time, there is no need to judge whether there is an obstacle at the front end of the extended wiping portion 21 through the baffle 3. Therefore, the baffle 3 can move to the second state to reduce the risk of interference between the cleaning device 100 and an obstacle during movement; when the wiping member 2 moves to the second working position, the baffle 3 switches to the first state to ensure that the baffle 3 can block in front of the extended wiping portion 21 to detect an obstacle located in front of the extended wiping portion 21.
[0060] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, an elastic reset member 4 is connected between the baffle 3 and the body 1, and the elastic reset member 4 is used to drive the baffle 3 to move from the first state to the second state. That is to say, when the external force acting on the baffle 3 other than the elastic reset member 4 disappears, the elastic reset member 4 can pull the baffle 3 to move to the second state or remain in the second state. Thus, the structure for driving the baffle 3 to move from the first state to the second state can be better simplified, and the cost of the elastic reset member 4 is low, which is beneficial to reducing the cost of the cleaning device 100. Among them, the elastic reset member 4 can be a tension spring, a torsion spring, etc., and no specific limitation is made here.
[0061] In a specific example, a first fixing column 13 is formed on the body 1, a second fixing column 33 is formed on the inner side surface of the baffle 3, both ends of the elastic reset member 4 have collar rings, the collar ring at one end of the elastic reset member 4 is sleeved on the first fixing column 13, and the collar ring at the other end of the elastic reset member 4 is sleeved on the second fixing column 33, so as to realize the connection between the elastic reset member 4, the body 1 and the baffle 3. Thus, the installation structure of the elastic reset member 4 can be better simplified. At the same time, the first fixing column 13 and the second fixing column 33 can provide good positioning effects, which is beneficial to improving the installation efficiency of the elastic reset member 4.
[0062] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the front end of the baffle 3 is rotatably arranged on the body 1. That is to say, the baffle 3 can swing around the connection position between the front end and the body 1 so that the rear end of the baffle 3 approaches or departs from the body, so that the baffle 3 can be switched between the second state and the first state by the rotation of the baffle 3 relative to the body 1. Thus, the connection structure between the baffle 3 and the body 1 can be better simplified. For example, a rotating shaft 12 can be arranged on the body 1, a rotating connection hole is provided at the front end of the baffle 3, and the rotating shaft 12 is inserted into the rotating connection hole and can rotate relative to the rotating connection hole, which is beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency of the baffle 3. In addition, the rotational connection can provide a good guiding effect, so that the stability of the baffle 3 moving between the first state and the second state can be improved.
[0063] In a specific example, the driving mechanism is used to drive the wiping member 2 to move in the left-right direction so as to move between a first working position and a second working position. The wiping member 2 and the rear end of the baffle 3 are arranged in the left-right direction. When the driving mechanism drives the wiping member 2 to move from the second working position towards the first working position, the wiping member 2 approaches the baffle 3 in the second state and drives the rear end of the baffle 3 to move away from the body 1 by contacting the baffle 3, thereby driving the baffle 3 to rotate relative to the body 1. At this time, the baffle 3 moves from the second state towards the first state. During this process, the elastic reset member 4 is gradually stretched. When the wiping member 2 moves to the first working position, the baffle 3 is in the first state; when the driving mechanism drives the wiping member 2 to move from the first working position towards the second working position, the thrust of the wiping member 2 acting on the baffle 3 gradually decreases or disappears, and the elastic reset member 4 restores deformation to pull the baffle 3 to make the rear end of the baffle 3 move towards the direction close to the body 1, thereby driving the baffle 3 to rotate relative to the body 1. At this time, the baffle 3 moves from the first state towards the second state and finally is in the second state.
[0064] It should be noted that only an example of one connection method between the baffle 3 and the body 1 is given here, and it is not a limitation on the connection method between the baffle 3 and the body 1. In some other embodiments, a slider is provided on the baffle 3, and a slide rail is provided on the body 1. The slider is slidably arranged on the slide rail in the left-right direction, that is, the baffle 3 is slidably connected to the body 1 to move between the second state and the first state, etc. Details are not described one by one here.
[0065] According to some embodiments of the present invention, when the wiping member 2 is in the first working position, it is spaced apart from the baffle 3, so as to avoid the baffle 3 affecting the movement of the wiping member 2 such as lifting.
[0066] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a receiving groove 11 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the body 1. In the second state, the baffle 3 is located in the receiving groove 11. Thus, the receiving groove 11 can better hold the baffle 3, so that the receiving groove 11 has a good protection effect on the baffle 3. At the same time, when installing the baffle 3, the receiving groove 11 can play a pre-positioning role, which is beneficial to reducing the difficulty of installing the baffle 3 on the body 1 and improving the installation efficiency of the baffle 3.
[0067] According to some embodiments of the present invention, in the second state, the projection of the baffle 3 on the reference plane is located within the projection of the body 1 on the reference plane, and the reference plane is perpendicular to the up-down direction. That is to say, when the baffle 3 is in the second state, it is completely located inside the outer peripheral surface of the body 1. Thus, it can better avoid the baffle 3 protruding from the outer peripheral surface of the body 1 and interfering with obstacles when the baffle 3 is in the second state, thereby avoiding the baffle 3 contacting the obstacles and affecting the normal forward movement of the cleaning device 100, which is beneficial to improving the walking stability of the cleaning device 100.
[0068] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the baffle 3 is in an arc shape protruding outward. Herein, the outward direction refers to the direction away from the body 1. The baffle 3 arranged in an arc shape can have higher structural stability, and at the same time enable the baffle 3 to better adapt to the arc-shaped outer peripheral surface of the body 1, which is beneficial to improving the consistency of the appearance of the cleaning device 100.
[0069] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, in the direction from the rear to the front, the lower side edge of the baffle 3 extends upward obliquely. That is to say, the lower side edge of the front end of the baffle 3 is higher than the lower side edge of the rear end of the baffle 3, so that the lower side edge of the baffle 3 can form a guiding structure that slopes downward from the front to the rear, which is beneficial to improving the obstacle-crossing ability of the cleaning device 100.
[0070] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the lower side edge of the front end of the baffle 3 is not lower than the height of the bottom surface of the body 1, and the rear end edge of the baffle 3 is not higher than the height of the bottom surface of the front end of the mopping member 2. Thus, it can better prevent obstacles from getting stuck at the front end of the baffle 3 and the front end of the mopping member 2, which is beneficial to improving the obstacle-crossing ability of the cleaning device 100.
[0071] In a specific example, the baffle 3 includes a side plate 31 and a bottom plate 32. The side plate 31 is parallel to the up-down direction, and the bottom plate 32 is parallel to the horizontal direction. The side plate 31 is an arc-shaped plate protruding in the direction away from the body 1. One section of the bottom plate 32 in the left-right direction is connected to the lower end of the side plate 31, and the other end of the bottom plate 32 extends in the direction close to the body 1. By arranging the side plate 31 and the bottom plate 32 at an angle, the structural strength of the baffle 3 can be improved.
[0072] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, rollers 34 are provided on the baffle 3. The rotation axis of the rollers 34 extends along the up-down direction and protrudes from the outer side surface of the baffle 3. That is to say, when the baffle 3 comes into contact with an obstacle and relative movement occurs, the obstacle can come into contact with the rollers 34 and drive the rollers 34 to rotate on the baffle 3, thereby reducing the friction between the baffle 3 and the obstacle, and further avoiding the risk of the cleaning device 100 getting stuck due to excessive friction between the baffle 3 and the obstacle.
[0073] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, a plurality of rollers 34 are arranged at intervals in the front-rear direction. Thus, the coverage range of the plurality of rollers 34 in the front-rear direction can be better increased, so that when the cleaning device 100 is moving forward, the obstacle can come into contact with the plurality of rollers 34 in sequence, which is beneficial to further reducing the friction between the baffle 3 and the obstacle.
[0074] In a specific example, the body 1 further includes an upper cover 1a and a chassis 1b. The upper cover 1a is disposed on the upper side of the chassis 1b. A placement groove for placing the dust box 15 is formed on the upper surface of the chassis 1b. A bumper 14 is provided on the front side surface of the chassis 1b. A dust suction port 16 located on the front side of the mopping member 2 is formed on the bottom surface of the chassis 1b. The dust suction port 16 is communicated with the dust box 15. A roller brush 17 extending in the left-right direction is provided in the dust suction port 16. Two traveling wheels 18 and a universal wheel 19 are further provided on the chassis 1b. The universal wheel 19 is disposed on the front side of the dust suction port 16. The two traveling wheels 18 are symmetrically disposed on the left and right sides of the dust suction port 16.

[0076] The cleaning system according to the embodiment of the second aspect of the present invention includes a cleaning device 100.
[0077] In the cleaning system according to the embodiment of the second aspect of the present invention, when the mopping member 2 is in the second working position to mop the ground, through the cooperation of the baffle 3, the detection sensor and the driving mechanism, the risk that the extended mopping portion 21 contacts the obstacle portion can be avoided, so that the risk that the cleaning device 100 is stuck and cannot move and the mopping member 2 is stuck and cannot move can be avoided, and the reliability is high.
[0078] In some embodiments, the cleaning system further includes a cleaning base station. The cleaning device 100 is detachably cooperated with the cleaning base station. The mopping member 2 can be cleaned, the dust in the dust box 15 can be collected, water can be added to the cleaning device 100, etc. through the cleaning base station. The functions of the cleaning base station are not specifically limited here.
