[0046] To better understand the above technical solution, the technical solution of the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below through the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific features in the embodiments of the present application and the embodiments are detailed descriptions of the technical solution of the embodiments of the present application, rather than limitations on the technical solution of the present application. Without conflict, the technical features in the embodiments of the present application and the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0047] The present application considers that during the use of the base station of the cleaning device in the traditional technology, condensate sometimes occurs inside, especially when the cleaning device is frequently used, more condensate will be generated, and this part of the condensate may drip on the main board or other devices, which is likely to affect the service life of the main board and other devices. The inventor found that the reason for the generation of this part of the condensate is that the base station has a function of drying the rag. By blowing the PTC heater with a fan, the hot air is blown to the cloth washing pool of the base station and the rag of the sweeper, and the cloth washing pool and the main rag of the host can be dried, playing a role in preventing mildew and odor. However, this air duct is connected to the cloth washing pool. When the sweeper washes the rag on the base station, a large amount of water vapor will be generated during the hot water washing of the rag. A small amount of water vapor will enter the base station through the path of the drying air outlet → drying air duct → fan. There is a risk of generating condensate inside the base station for a long time to corrode the internal main board or other components.

[0048] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, based on this, a base station is proposed according to the first aspect of the embodiments of the present application, including: a housing 110; a air supply component 120, the air supply component 120 is arranged inside the housing 110; an air outlet 130, the air outlet 130 is opened on the housing 110, and the air flow formed by the air supply component 120 is discharged to the outside of the housing 110 through the outer wall of the drying air duct inside the housing 110.

[0049] The base station provided by the embodiments of the present application includes a housing 110, an air supply component 120 and an air outlet 130, and the air outlet 130 is opened on the housing 110. For the problem that condensate or water vapor is likely to be generated inside the base station, the air supply component 120 and the air outlet 130 are provided in the base station provided by the embodiments of the present application. During use, by turning on the air supply component 120, the air supply component 120 can generate an air flow, the air flow flows inside the base station, and finally is discharged to the outside of the housing 110 through the air outlet 130. Based on this, the air flow can carry the water vapor and discharge it to the outside of the housing 110, ensuring the dryness of the base station, reducing the risk of condensate corroding the internal main board or key devices, and reducing the failure rate of the base station.

[0050] In the base station provided by the embodiment of the present application, the airflow formed by the air supply component 120 is discharged from the air outlet 130 to the outside of the housing 110 after passing through the outer wall of the drying air duct inside the housing 110. On the one hand, it can increase the circulation path of the airflow in the base station and better carry water vapor; on the other hand, it can better disperse the condensed water formed on the outer wall of the drying air duct and further improve the dryness of the base station.

[0051] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, in a feasible implementation manner, the air supply component 120 includes: a bracket 121, the bracket 121 is fixed inside the housing 110; a first fan 122, the first fan 122 is connected to the bracket 121.

[0052] In this technical solution, the structural composition of the air supply component 120 is further provided. The air supply component 120 may include a bracket 121 and a first fan 122. The bracket 121 is connected to the housing 110, and the first fan 122 is further connected to the bracket 121. Such a setting facilitates the assembly of the first fan 122 and makes the fixation of the first fan 122 more reliable, and can reduce the generation of vibration noise.

[0053] In a feasible implementation manner, the air supply component 120 further includes: a soft rubber layer, the soft rubber layer is arranged between the first fan 122 and the bracket 121 or arranged inside the first fan 122; a noise reduction layer, the noise reduction layer is arranged on the exhaust side of the first fan 122.

[0054] In this technical solution, the air supply component 120 may further include a soft rubber layer and a noise reduction layer. The soft rubber layer is arranged between the first fan 122 and the bracket 121 or arranged inside the first fan 122. Based on this, the soft rubber layer can play a role of buffering and shock absorption, and can avoid the vibration generated when the first fan 122 works from being transmitted to the bracket 121 or suppress the vibration inside the first fan 122, and also avoid the vibration generated when the first fan 122 works from being transmitted to the housing 110 or the base station, and can reduce the generation of noise.

[0055] In this technical solution, a noise reduction layer is arranged on the exhaust side of the first fan 122, which can further achieve the effect of noise reduction. It can be understood that the noise reduction layer may include noise reduction foam.

[0056] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, in a feasible implementation manner, the bracket 121 is formed with an exhaust hole 1211, the exhaust side of the first fan 122 faces the exhaust hole 1211, and the exhaust hole 1211 faces the air outlet 130. Such a setting facilitates the first fan 122 to supply air into the base station.

[0057] In a feasible implementation, the base station further includes: a dust collection component, and the air supply component 120 is used to provide a negative pressure environment for the dust collection component.

[0058] In this technical solution, the base station may further include a dust collection component. Through the setting of the dust collection component, the dust collected by the cleaning device main body during operation can be stored. When the cleaning device main body is parked in the base station, the dust collection component can be conducted to the cleaning device main body. By turning on the air supply component 120, the air supply component 120 provides a negative pressure environment for the dust collection component, and the negative pressure environment can suck the dust at the cleaning device main body. The output end of the air supply component 120 can output air flow, and the air flow flows in the base station and is finally discharged outside the housing 110 through the air outlet 130. Based on this, the air flow can carry water vapor and be discharged outside the housing 110, ensuring the dryness of the base station, reducing the risk of condensate water corroding the internal main board or key components, and reducing the failure rate of the base station. With such a setting, the air supply component 120 can not only provide negative pressure for the dust collection component, but also discharge condensate water from the base station, improving the utilization rate of the air supply component 120 and reducing the cost of the base station.

[0059] It can be understood that, in order to facilitate the air supply component 120 to provide a negative pressure environment for the dust collection component, the first fan 122 of the air supply component 120 can be a centrifugal fan. Through the setting of the centrifugal fan, the centrifugal fan can also output an air flow with a certain amount of heat energy, and the air flow can better disperse the condensate water in the base station and can better carry the water vapor inside the base station.

[0060] Such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in a feasible implementation, the base station further includes: a water tank component 140, and the water tank component 140 is arranged inside the housing 110; wherein, an avoidance part 143 is formed on the side wall of the water tank component 140, and the air supply component 120 is arranged adjacent to the avoidance part 143 on one side of the water tank component 140 or arranged in the middle of the water tank component 140.

[0061] In this technical solution, the base station may further include a water tank component 140. Through the setting of the water tank component 140, the cleaning liquid used to wet and clean the cleaning parts of the cleaning device main body can be stored, and the sewage generated when cleaning the cleaning parts can also be stored, making the use of the base station more convenient.

[0062] In this technical solution, an avoidance part 143 is formed on the side wall of the water tank component 140, and the air supply component 120 is arranged close to the avoidance part 143 on one side of the water tank component 140 or arranged in the middle of the water tank component 140. With such a setting, an installation position is provided for the air supply component 120, which can make the structure of the base station more compact, facilitate the miniaturization of the base station, and at the same time, when the air supply component 120 generates an air flow, the intensity of the air flow in the base station can be increased, and the air flow can better carry water vapor.

[0063] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, in a feasible implementation, the water tank assembly 140 includes: a clean box body 141 and a sewage box body 142. An avoidance portion 143 is formed on the sewage box body 142, and the air supply assembly 120 is located between the clean box body 141 and the sewage box body 142.

[0064] In this technical solution, the structural composition of the water tank assembly 140 is further provided. The water tank assembly 140 may include a clean box body 141 and a sewage box body 142. By providing the clean box body 141, cleaning liquid for wetting and cleaning the cleaning parts of the cleaning equipment main body can be stored. By providing the sewage box body 142, sewage generated during the cleaning of the cleaning parts can be stored, making the use of the base station more convenient.

[0065] In this technical solution, the avoidance portion 143 is formed at the sewage box body 142. Such a setting is considered because the clean box body 141 has a higher requirement for volume. By increasing the volume of the clean box body 141, more cleaning liquid can be stored, the frequency of users adding liquid or the base station being filled with water can be reduced, the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning parts can be improved, and the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning equipment main body for the ground can be improved. Therefore, the avoidance portion 143 is provided at the sewage box body 142 to facilitate the assembly of the air supply assembly 120 and ensure the stable operation of the base station.

[0066] In this technical solution, the air supply assembly 120 is located between the clean box body 141 and the sewage box body 142, which can make the layout of the base station more compact and more conducive to reducing the volume of the base station.

[0067] In some examples, a float ball may be provided in the clean box body 141. Through the float ball, the liquid level height in the clean box body 141 can be known, which is convenient for controlling the addition of liquid in the clean box body 141 to stop automatically at the target liquid level, making the use of the clean box body 141 more convenient.

[0068] As Figure 4 shown, in a feasible implementation, in the height direction of the sewage box body 142, the cross-sectional area of the sewage box body 142 at the top is larger than the cross-sectional area of the sewage box body 142 at the bottom.

[0069] In this technical solution, a style of the sewage tank 142 is further provided. In the height direction of the sewage tank 142, the cross-sectional area of ​​the sewage tank 142 at the top is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the sewage tank 142 at the bottom. That is to say, the sewage tank 142 is generally wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, and is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom. Such a configuration facilitates the discharge of sewage through the bottom of the sewage tank 142, and reduces the probability of dirt in the sewage being deposited at the bottom of the sewage tank 142. Especially in a base station with automatic water supply and drainage functions, when the sewage tank 142 has a tapered structure toward the bottom, it is convenient for sewage to gather at the bottom and be directly discharged to the outside of the machine through a pipeline, such as entering a drainage channel such as a floor drain.

[0070] In some examples, in order to facilitate the processing of the sewage tank 142 and the discharge of sewage in the sewage tank 142, the sewage tank 142 may be funnel-shaped.

[0071] like Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, in a feasible embodiment, the base station also includes: a bottom plate 150, the bottom plate 150 includes a ramp plate and a cloth washing pool, and the cloth washing pool is arranged at the bottom of the shell 110; a second fan 160; a drying channel 170, the output end of the second fan 160 is facing the drying channel 170, and the output end of the drying channel 170 is connected to the direction of the cloth washing pool.

[0072] In this technical solution, the base station may also include a cloth washing pool, a second fan 160 and a drying channel 170. The arrangement of the bottom plate 150 facilitates the return of the cleaning device body to the base station, and facilitates the return and parking of the cleaning device body. By outputting cleaning liquid to the cloth washing pool, the cleaning parts on the cleaning device body can be cleaned. After the cleaning parts are cleaned, the second fan 160 can be turned on. The second fan 160 supplies air to the cloth washing pool through the drying channel 170, which can dry the cleaning parts, reduce the probability of the cleaning parts becoming moldy and producing odor, and improve user experience.

[0073] In some examples, a heating element may be provided inside or outside the drying channel 170. The second fan 160 causes the airflow to flow through the heating element to form hot air, and the drying efficiency can be improved by delivering the hot air to the cloth washing pool.

[0074] like Figure 5 As shown, in a feasible implementation manner, the second fan 160 and the drying channel 170 are arranged closer to the inner wall of the housing 110 than the air supply assembly 120 .

[0075] In this technical solution, the layout relationship between the second fan 160 and the air supply assembly 120 is further provided. The second fan 160 and the drying channel 170 are arranged closer to the inner wall of the housing 110 than the air supply assembly 120. That is to say, the second fan 160 can be arranged close to the inner wall of the housing 110, and the air supply assembly 120 can be arranged in the middle of the base station. Such a setting is considered because the second fan 160 needs to dry the cleaning parts through the drying channel 170. Therefore, the drying channel 170 will have a certain length. Arranging the second fan 160 and the drying channel 170 close to the housing 110 facilitates the assembly and maintenance of the second fan 160 and the drying channel 170. At the same time, the air supply assembly 120 is arranged in the middle of the base station, so that the air flow generated by the air supply assembly 120 can be better distributed within the base station. Especially when the air flow is blown to positions where water vapor is more concentrated, such as the second fan 160 and the drying channel 170, it can better carry the water vapor within the base station and better discharge the water vapor accumulated within the base station, ensuring the service life of the base station.

[0076] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, according to the second aspect of the embodiments of the present application, a cleaning device is proposed, including: a base station according to any of the above technical solutions; a cleaning device main body, and the base station is used to accommodate the cleaning device main body.

[0077] The cleaning device provided by the embodiments of the present application includes the base station according to any of the above technical solutions, so the cleaning device has all the beneficial effects of the base station of the above technical solutions.

[0078] During the operation of the cleaning device provided by the embodiments of the present application, after the cleaning device main body returns to the base station after completing the cleaning task, clean liquid can be output through the clean box body to clean the cleaning parts on the cleaning device main body, and then dust collection can be carried out. Based on this technology, some water vapor enters the base station during the cleaning process of the cleaning parts. When the air supply assembly 120 is turned on for negative pressure dust collection, the air supply assembly 120 can generate an air flow. The air flow flows within the base station and is finally discharged outside the housing 110 through the air outlet 130. Based on this, the air flow can carry the water vapor and discharge it outside the housing 110, ensuring the dryness of the base station, reducing the risk of internal main board or key components being corroded by condensed water, and reducing the failure rate of the base station.
