[0038] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 shown, the base 10 further includes: a first side cover plate 16 and a second side cover plate 17. The first side cover plate 16 is arranged on the outer side of the first side plate 13, and matching first positioning structures are provided on the first side cover plate 16 and the top cover 12 to enable positioning connection between the first side cover plate 16 and the top cover 12; the second side cover plate 17 is arranged on the outer side of the second side plate 14, and matching second positioning structures are provided on the second side cover plate 17 and the top cover 12 to enable positioning connection between the second side cover plate 17 and the top cover 12.

[0039] Since the first side plate 13 and the second side plate 14 mainly play a supporting role, and after the first side plate 13 and the second side plate 14 are connected to the top cover 12, a large number of connecting parts, such as bolts, are exposed on the first side plate 13 and the second side plate 14; at the same time, strengthening structures and positioning structures are also formed on the first side plate 13 and the second side plate 14, resulting in a low surface flatness of the first side plate 13 and the second side plate 14.

[0040] The present disclosure respectively provides the first side cover plate 16 and the second side cover plate 17 on the outer sides of the first side plate 13 and the second side plate 14, forming a shielding for connecting parts such as bolts, thereby preventing water from splashing onto the connecting parts and affecting the service life of the connecting parts; at the same time, by providing the first side cover plate 16 and the second side cover plate 17, the flatness of the side surface of the base 10 is improved, thereby improving the overall aesthetic appearance of the base 10, and further enhancing the market competitiveness of the product. In addition, by providing a first positioning structure between the first side cover plate 16 and the top cover 12, the first side cover plate 16 and the top cover 12 are positioned and connected, improving the assembly accuracy and assembly efficiency of the first side cover plate 16; by providing a second positioning structure between the second side cover plate 17 and the top cover 12, the second side cover plate 17 and the top cover 12 are positioned and connected, improving the assembly accuracy and assembly efficiency of the second side cover plate 17.

[0041] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection of the first side cover plate 16 on the first side plate 13 covers the surface of the first side plate 13, that is, the shape and size of the first side cover plate 16 match those of the first side plate 13 to completely block the first side plate 13, further enhancing the protection of the first side plate 13.

[0042] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection of the second side cover plate 17 on the second side plate 14 covers the surface of the second side plate 14, that is, the shape and size of the second side cover plate 17 match those of the second side plate 14 to completely block the second side plate 14, further enhancing the protection of the second side plate 14.

[0043] In some embodiments, the first positioning structure includes a first positioning hole provided on one of the first side cover plate 16 and the top cover 12, and a first positioning protrusion provided on the other. For example, a first positioning hole is provided on the first side cover plate 16, and a first protrusion is provided on the top cover 12. When assembling the first side cover plate 16, the first side cover plate 16 can be pre-positioned by the cooperation of the first positioning hole and the first protrusion, and then the first side cover plate 16 is fixed using fasteners.

[0044] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 shown, the first side cover plate 16 includes a first main body portion 161 and a first folded edge 162. The first main body portion 161 is disposed opposite to the first side plate 13 and is used to block the first side plate 13, that is, the orthographic projection of the first main body portion 161 on the first side plate 13 covers the surface of the first side plate 13 to completely block the first side plate 13. Among them, the first side cover plate 16 can be formed by bending a whole plate through sheet metal, that is, the first folded edge 162 can be bent 90° from the first main body portion 161 of the first side cover plate 16. Of course, the first main body portion 161 and the first folded edge 162 can also be connected by welding, clamping, threaded connection, etc. to form the first side cover plate 16.

[0045] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, a first positioning hole 163 is provided on the first folded edge 162, and a first tongue piece 121 is formed on the top cover 12 at a position close to the first side plate 13.

The top cover 12 can be a structure formed by bending a whole plate through stamping sheet metal. When forming the top cover 12, the first tongue piece 121 can be designed to be formed by the same stamping sheet metal bending process at the same time, so as to reduce the production cost of the top cover 12 and improve the production efficiency of the top cover 12.

[0047] In some embodiments, it is sufficient that the height of the first tongue piece 121 in the first direction Z is greater than the thickness at the position where the first hemming 162 is provided with the first positioning hole 163; at the same time, the height of the first tongue piece 121 should not be too large to avoid affecting the setting of other components on the top cover 12.

[0048] In some embodiments, the second positioning structure includes a second positioning hole provided on one of the second side cover plate 17 and the top cover 12, and a second positioning protrusion provided on the other. For example, the second side cover plate 17 is provided with a second positioning hole, and the top cover 12 is provided with a second protrusion. When assembling the second side cover plate 17, the second side cover plate 17 can be pre-positioned by the cooperation of the second positioning hole and the second protrusion first, and then the second side cover plate 17 is fixed by using fasteners.

[0049] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 shown, the second side cover plate 17 includes a second main body portion 171 and a second hemming 172. The second main body portion 171 is disposed opposite to the second side plate 14 and is used to shield the second side plate 14, that is, the orthographic projection of the second side cover plate 17 on the second side plate 14 covers the surface of the second side plate 14 to completely shield the second side plate 14, further improving the protection of the second side plate 14. Among them, the second side cover plate 17 can be formed by bending a whole plate through sheet metal bending, that is, the second hemming 172 can be bent 90° from the second main body portion 171 of the second side cover plate 17. Of course, the second main body portion 171 and the second hemming 172 can also be connected by welding, clamping, threaded connection and other means to form the second side cover plate 17.

[0050] In some embodiments, as Figures 4 to 6 shown, the second hemming 172 is provided with a second positioning hole 173, and a second tongue piece 122 is formed on the top cover 12 at a position close to the second side plate 14. The second tongue piece 122 is inserted into the second positioning hole 173. Through the setting of the second tongue piece 122, the pre-positioning of the assembly of the second side cover plate 17 is realized, and the assembly efficiency is improved. Of course, the second hemming 172 and the top cover 12 can also be fixedly connected by bolts or screws to form the assembly of the second side cover plate 17; at the same time, the second hemming 172 and the top cover 12 can also be fixedly connected by forms such as welding, bonding, riveting, and clamping.

[0051] In some embodiments, the second tongue piece 122 and the top cover 12 are of an integral structure, that is, the second tongue piece 122 is an integral structure bent from the top cover 12 by stamping sheet metal. The top cover 12 can be a structure formed by bending a whole plate through stamping sheet metal. When forming the top cover 12, the second tongue piece 122 can be designed to be formed by the same stamping sheet metal bending process at the same time, so as to reduce the production cost of the top cover 12 and improve the production efficiency of the top cover 12.

[0052] In some embodiments, the height of the second tongue piece 122 in the first direction Z only needs to be greater than the thickness of the second folded edge 172 at the position where the second positioning hole 173 is provided; at the same time, the height of the second tongue piece 122 should not be too large to avoid affecting the setting of other components on the top cover 12.

[0053] In some embodiments, the shapes and sizes of the first tongue piece 121 and the second tongue piece 122 can be exactly the same, and the first tongue piece 121 and the second tongue piece 122 can be symmetrically arranged on the top cover 12.

[0054] In some embodiments, a first grasping portion can also be formed on the first side cover 16. The first side cover 16 is fixed on the base 10. By providing the first grasping portion on the first side cover 16, it is convenient to carry the base 10. Among them, the first grasping portion can be a concave structure recessed toward the first side plate 13, and a grasping groove for hand grasping is formed through the concave structure.

[0055] In some embodiments, a second grasping portion 174 can also be formed on the second side cover 17. The second side cover 17 is fixed on the base 10. By providing the second grasping portion 174 on the second side cover 17, it is convenient to carry the base 10. Among them, the second grasping portion 174 can be a concave structure recessed toward the second side plate 14, and a grasping groove for hand grasping is formed through the concave structure.

[0056] In some embodiments, the structures of the grasping portions on the first side cover 16 and the second side cover 17 can be exactly the same, so as to facilitate the user to carry the base 10.

[0057] In some embodiments, the structures of the first side cover 16 and the second side cover 17 can be exactly the same, so that by manufacturing the same side cover, it can be used as both the first side cover 16 and the second side cover 17 at the same time, reducing the production cost. At the same time, the first side cover 16 and the second side cover 17 can be interchanged, improving the assembly effect. Of course, the structures of the first side cover 16 and the second side cover 17 can also be different, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0058] The embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a cleaning system, such as Figure 7As shown, the cleaning system includes a base 10 and a laundry treatment device 30, and the laundry treatment device 30 is disposed on the base 10. In some embodiments, the cleaning system may further include a cleaning device 20, and the cleaning device 20 can be movably received in the accommodation space of the base 10 under the laundry treatment device 30.

[0059] By movably receiving the cleaning device 20 in the base assembly under the laundry treatment device 30 when not in use, the base station of the cleaning device 20 occupies the same position as the laundry treatment device 30, avoiding the additional area occupied by the base station of the cleaning device 20.
