Specific embodiments

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0026] Please refer to the appendix Figure 1-7As shown, a cleaning device provided by an embodiment of the present utility model includes a body main body 1 and a liquid storage container 2. An installation groove 11 is provided on the body main body 1, and the liquid storage container 2 is detachably installed in the installation groove 11. A liquid level detection assembly 3 is provided on the liquid storage container 2. The liquid level detection assembly 3 has at least one electrical connection position 33 exposed on the surface of the liquid storage container 2. At a position corresponding to the electrical connection position 33 in the installation groove 11, there are liquid level detection electrical connection posts 13 with the same number and one-to-one correspondence as the electrical connection position 33 and only one in-position detection electrical connection post 14 corresponding to one of the electrical connection positions 33. In this embodiment, the liquid level detection assembly 3 includes a left detection member 32 and a right detection member 31. Each of the left detection member 32 and the right detection member 31 has one electrical connection position 33. At a position corresponding to the left detection member 32 in the installation groove 11, there is one liquid level detection electrical connection post 13. At a position corresponding to the right detection member 31 in the installation groove 11, there is one liquid level detection electrical connection post 13 and one in-position detection electrical connection post 14. The in-position detection electrical connection post 14 is used to detect whether the liquid storage container 2 is installed in place, thereby solving the problem of poor user experience caused by the lack of a water tank in-position detection function in existing cleaning devices. Moreover, the in-position detection electrical connection post 14 shares the same electrical connection position 33 with the liquid level detection electrical connection post 13, that is, the in-position detection function can be completed by using existing liquid level detection accessories without additionally adding electrical connection positions 33 required for the in-position detection function, making the structure of the liquid storage container 2 simpler.

[0027] At least one first inclined side wall 12 that widens from the inside outwards is provided on the installation groove 11. One side of the liquid storage container 2 corresponding to the first inclined side wall 12 is provided with a second inclined side wall 21 adapted thereto. The liquid level detection electrical connection post 13 and the in-position detection electrical connection post 14 are arranged on the first inclined side wall 12, and the electrical connection position 33 is exposed on the second inclined side wall 21. During installation, the second inclined side wall 21 of the liquid storage container 2 gradually slides into the installation groove 11 from the outside inwards until the second inclined side wall 21 is completely opposite to the first inclined side wall 12, that is, the installation is in place. At this time, the liquid level detection electrical connection post 13 and the in-position detection electrical connection post 14 are respectively abutted against their corresponding electrical connection positions 33. During disassembly, the liquid storage container 2 can be operated in the reverse direction of installation. At this time, the liquid level detection electrical connection post 13 and the in-position detection electrical connection post 14 are naturally separated from their corresponding electrical connection positions 33. Therefore, both installation and disassembly are very convenient. Further, the second inclined side wall 21 includes a first inclined section 212 located on the inner side and a second inclined section 211 located on the outer side. The inclination angle of the second inclined section 211 is equal to the inclination angle of the first inclined side wall 12, and the inclination angle of the first inclined section 212 is greater than the inclination angle of the second inclined section 211. In this way, a gap can be formed between the second inclined section 211 and the first inclined side wall 12 after the liquid storage container 2 is installed in place, which can avoid the possibility of collision between the second inclined section 211 and the first inclined side wall 12 during disassembly of the liquid storage container 2, making the disassembly more reliable. Optionally, the electrical connection position 33 is flush with the surface of the second inclined side wall 21, and part of the electrical connection position 33 is located in the area where the first inclined section 212 is located, and the remaining part of the electrical connection position 33 extends to the area where the second inclined section 211 is located. At this time, the electrical connection position 33 is designed to adapt to the shape of the second inclined side wall 21. As can be seen above, such a design can avoid the collision between the electrical connection position 33 and the first inclined side wall 12, playing a role in protecting the electrical connection position 33.

[0028] The liquid storage container 2 is provided with an installation hole 22 communicating with the inside of the liquid storage container 2 on the second inclined side wall 21. The liquid level detection assembly 3 is assembled and installed in the installation hole 22, and the end face of the liquid level detection assembly 3 exposed from the installation hole 22 is set as the electrical connection position 33.

[0029] The liquid level detection electrical connection post 13 and the in-position detection electrical connection post 14 adopt the same telescopic structure. The telescopic structure includes a connection post body 111, an electrical post hole 113 provided on the first inclined side wall 12, and an elastic member 112. In this embodiment, the elastic member 112 is set as a spring. The outer end of the connection post body 111 passes through the electrical post hole 113 and extends outside the first inclined side wall 12, and the inner end of the connection post body 111 is connected to the elastic member 112. A tip 114 is provided at the outer end of the connection post body 111.

[0030] It should be noted that, since a tip 114 is provided at the outer end of the terminal body 111, and due to the installation method of the liquid storage container 2 in the installation groove 11, during installation, the tip 114 at the outer end of the terminal body 111 can be used to scrape the surface of the electrical connection position 33. Therefore, even if there is dust, debris or rust on the electrical connection position 33, it can be removed through the scraping action of the tip 114 during the installation process, thereby ensuring the electrical connection reliability between the liquid level detection terminal 13 and the in-position detection terminal 14 and their corresponding electrical connection positions 33 after the installation is in place.

[0031] This embodiment also provides a liquid storage container, which is applied to a cleaning device. The cleaning device includes a body main body 1 and a liquid storage container 2. An installation groove 11 is provided on the body main body 1. The liquid storage container 2 is detachably installed in the installation groove 11. A liquid level detection assembly 3 is provided on the liquid storage container 2. The liquid level detection assembly 3 has at least one electrical connection position 33 exposed on the surface of the liquid storage container 2. At a position corresponding to the electrical connection position 33 in the installation groove 11, there are a liquid level detection terminal 13 with the same number as and corresponding one-to-one to the electrical connection position 33 and an in-position detection terminal 14 with only one and corresponding to one of the electrical connection positions 33. In this embodiment, the liquid storage container 2 is set as a sewage tank.

[0032] The cleaning device of the present utility model is provided with an in-position detection terminal 14, which can be used to detect whether the liquid storage container 2 is installed in place, thereby solving the problem of poor user experience caused by the lack of a water tank in-position detection function in existing cleaning devices. Moreover, the in-position detection terminal 14 shares the same electrical connection position 33 with the liquid level detection terminal 13, that is, the in-position detection function can be completed by using the existing liquid level detection accessories, without additionally adding an electrical connection position 33 required for the in-position detection function, making the structure of the liquid storage container 2 simpler.

For the sake of brevity of description, 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, it should be considered as within the scope described in this specification.
