[0036] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0037] The present invention provides a dust collecting mechanism, which can be a base station. Figure 1 Shown, including:

[0038] The dust collecting mechanism includes a dust collecting position 100, which is used to collect debris in the cleaning device 200. The dust collecting mechanism also includes a blocking device 300, which is arranged on the dust collecting position 100 to block at least one air inlet 210 of the cleaning device 200 on the dust collecting position 100.

[0039] The cleaning device 200 may specifically be a sweeper, mop, or all-in-one sweeper and mop. When collecting dust, the cleaning device 200 needs to dock at the dust collection position 100. The at least one air inlet 210 of the cleaning device 200 may be at least one of a dust inlet, a fan port, or a dust collection port in a sweeper dust box 230. The dust collection position 100 is disposed below the dust collection mechanism. The cleaning device 200 enters the dust collection mechanism and docks at the dust collection position 100. When it is detected that the cleaning device 200 has begun collecting dust, the blocking device 300 at the dust collection position 100 blocks the at least one air inlet 210 of the cleaning device 200.

[0040] The dust collection mechanism proposed in the embodiment of the present invention is configured to provide a blocking device 300 at the dust collection position 100. When the cleaning device 200 moves to the dust collection position 100 and starts dust collection, the blocking device 300 at the dust collection position 100 starts to block at least one air inlet 210 of the cleaning device 200, thereby reducing the noise generated during dust collection and improving the user experience.

[0041] Furthermore, the blocking device 300 can include various forms. In one embodiment of the present invention, the blocking device 300 can include multiple elastic curtains: the blocking device 300 includes multiple elastic curtains; the multiple elastic curtains are circumferentially arranged on the dust collection position 100, and are used to abut against the air inlet 210. The multiple elastic curtains include at least one of a rubber sheet and a PVC sheet.

[0042] The blocking device 300 proposed in the embodiment of the present invention includes a plurality of elastic curtains, one end of which is circumferentially fixed on the dust collecting position 100 below the air inlet 210 , and the other end of which is used to abut against the air inlet 210 . Because it is an elastic curtain, when the cleaning device 200 moves to the dust collection position 100, if the cleaning device 200 collides with the elastic curtain, the elastic curtain will bend and will not hinder the movement of the cleaning device 200. It should be noted that the elastic curtain will not bend in the absence of external force, that is, it will maintain a straight posture. The elastic curtains are arranged circumferentially on the dust collection position 100 through fixings according to the shape of the air inlet 210, and the elastic curtains after arrangement are perpendicular to the plane where the air inlet 210 is located. The fixings can be bolts or sealants. For example, if the air inlet 210 is circular, the elastic curtains after arrangement can form a barrel-shaped structure, and the barrel-shaped structure is used to buckle the air inlet 210 to achieve the blocking of the air inlet 210. If the air inlet is rectangular, the elastic curtains after arrangement can form a rectangular structure.

[0043] Furthermore, each elastic curtain includes at least one of a rubber elastic curtain and a PVC elastic curtain. As long as the elastic curtain does not hinder the movement of the cleaning device 200 and can block the air inlet 210, the embodiment of the utility model does not specifically limit the material of the elastic curtain.

[0044] In another embodiment of the present invention, if the component where the air inlet 210 is located is a component that can be automatically raised and lowered, the blocking device 300 may further include a sealing strip; the sealing strip is circumferentially arranged on the dust collection position 100 according to the shape of the air inlet 210.

[0045] The blocking device 300 can be a sealing strip provided on the dust collection position 100. For example, the sealing strip is adhered to the dust collection position 100 by an adhesive material. The sealing strip can be circumferentially provided on the dust collection position 100 according to the shape and size of the air inlet 210. When the cleaning device 200 is docked on the dust collection position 100, the component where the air inlet 210 is located descends, and the edge of the air inlet 210 abuts against the sealing strip on the dust collection position 100. The thickness of the sealing strip is set to ensure contact between the edge of the air inlet 210 and the sealing strip. Therefore, if the component where the air inlet 210 is located is a component that can be automatically raised and lowered, the noise generated by the cleaning device 200 during dust collection can be reduced by a simple sealing strip, thereby saving costs.

[0046] In another embodiment of the present invention, the blocking device 300 may further include a movable device, that is, at least a portion of the blocking device 300 may be capable of moving toward the corresponding air inlet 210 to block the air inlet 210 .

[0047] The blocking device 300 is used to block at least one air inlet 210 in the cleaning device 200. The blocking device 300 is a movable device. Before the blocking device 300 is moved, the position of the blocking device 300 will not have any effect on the cleaning device 200. When the cleaning device 200 moves to the dust collection position 100 and the cleaning device 200 starts to collect dust, if the part where the air inlet 210 in the cleaning device 200 is located cannot be raised or lowered, the blocking device 300 starts to move toward the air inlet 210 of the cleaning device 200 to block the air inlet. 210, thereby reducing the noise generated by the cleaning device 200 during dust collection and improving the user experience. If the component where the air inlet 210 in the cleaning device 200 is located can be raised and lowered, then the component where the air inlet is located will be lowered, and the blocking device 300 may not move, thereby also being able to achieve abutment and sealing between the air inlet 210 and the blocking device 300, or while the component where the air inlet 210 is located is lowered, the blocking device 300 moves upward until the blocking device abuts against the air inlet, thereby whether the abutment and sealing between the air inlet 210 and the blocking device 300 can be quickly achieved.

[0048] Further, such as Figure 2 As shown, the dust collecting mechanism includes a ramp plate 400 , and the blocking device 300 is arranged on the ramp plate 400 .

[0049] The ramp plate 400 is set to form a preset angle with the ground 500. For example, the angle between the ramp plate 400 and the ground 500 is 15 degrees. The angle between the ramp plate 400 and the ground 500 does not affect the docking of the cleaning device 200. The ramp plate 400 can be a solid plate. When the cleaning device 200 is in the integrated position, the air inlet 210 of the cleaning device 200 is at least in the area above the ramp plate 400, which facilitates the blocking device 300 on the ramp plate 400 to move toward the air inlet 210 to block the air inlet 210. The air inlet 210 of the cleaning device 200 is in the area above the ramp plate 400, which facilitates the blocking device 300 to reach the air inlet 210 and block the air inlet 210, thereby improving the blocking efficiency.

[0050] Further, such as Figure 3 As shown, the blocking device 300 includes a first driving device 310 and a sealing cover 320; the sealing cover 320 is arranged below the corresponding air inlet 210, the sealing cover 320 is adapted to the air inlet 210, and the first driving device 310 is used to drive the sealing cover 320 to move.

[0051] One end of the first driving device 310 proposed in the embodiment of the present utility model is fixed on the ramp plate 400, and the sealing cover 320 is arranged below the corresponding air inlet 210. The sealing cover 320 is adapted to the corresponding air inlet 210. The other end of the first driving device 310 is connected to the sealing cover 320. The first driving device 310 is used to drive the sealing cover 320 to move toward the corresponding air inlet 210 to block the air inlet 210; the first driving device 310 is also used to drive the sealing cover 320 to move toward the ramp plate 400 to separate the sealing cover 320 from the air inlet 210.

[0052] Specifically, the blocking device 300 is composed of a first driving device 310 and a sealing cover 320. The shape of the sealing cover 320 can be the same as the shape of the air inlet 210, and the area of the sealing cover 320 can be greater than or equal to the area of the air inlet 210. As long as the sealing cover 320 can block the air inlet 210, this embodiment does not specifically limit the shape, size and structure of the sealing cover 320. One end of the first driving device 310 is fixed to the ramp plate 400. For example, one end of the first driving device 310 can be welded or fixed to the ramp plate 400 by bolts or other means. The other end of the first driving device 310 is connected to the sealing device 221. When it is detected that the cleaning device 200 starts to collect dust, the first driving device 310 drives the sealing cover 320 to move toward the air inlet 210 to block the air inlet 210, thereby reducing the noise generated by the cleaning device 200 during dust collection, thereby improving the user's cleaning experience. After it is detected that the cleaning device 200 has completed dust collection, the first driving device 310 drives the sealing cover 320 to move away from the air inlet 210, that is, the first driving device 310 drives the sealing cover 320 to move toward the ramp plate 400 to return the sealing cover 320 to its position.

[0053] Further, such as Figure 3 As shown, a sealing member 330 is provided on the sealing cover 320 , and the sealing member 330 is used to abut against the edge of the air inlet 210 .

[0054] The seal 330 can be a sealing strip, etc. The seal 330 can be adhered to the sealing cover 320. The seal 330 can be set on the sealing cover 320 according to the shape and size of the air inlet 210. Through the seal 330, a good sealing effect is achieved between the sealing cover 320 and the air inlet 210, thereby further reducing the noise generated by the cleaning equipment 200 when collecting dust.

[0055] Furthermore, the first driving device 310 includes one of a vertical telescopic robotic arm, a driving motor, and a transmission mechanism.

[0056] Further, such as Figure 4As shown, the dust collection mechanism also includes a sensor 340 and a controller 350; the sensor 340 is used to collect the location information of the cleaning device 200 when it enters the dust collection position 100; the controller 350 is used to obtain the location information, and based on the location information, control the first driving device 310 to push the sealing cover 320 to block at least one air inlet 210 of the cleaning device 200.

[0057] The sensor 340 proposed in the embodiment of the present invention can be installed at any position inside the dust collection mechanism that can monitor the status of the cleaning device 200. The sensor 340 is electrically connected to the controller 350. At the same time, the controller 350 is electrically connected to the first drive device 310. The sensor 340 collects the in-place information of the cleaning device 200 when it enters the dust collection position 100 in real time, and transmits the collected in-place information to the controller 350 in real time. When the controller 350 determines that the in-place information is that the cleaning device 200 is completely docked at the dust collection position, the controller 350 starts to control the first drive device 310. The device 310 pushes the sealing cover 320 to move toward the air inlet 210 on the cleaning equipment 200. When the controller 350 detects that the sealing cover 320 completely blocks the air inlet 210, the controller 350 controls the first driving device 310 to stop the upward pushing operation. At the same time, the sensor 340 also collects the dust collection status of the cleaning equipment 200 in real time and transmits the dust collection status to the controller 350 in real time. When the controller 350 detects that the integration is completed, the controller 350 controls the first driving device 310 to drive the sealing cover 320 to move back toward the ramp plate 400.

[0058] The present invention also provides a cleaning device 200. Figure 5 As shown, it includes a main brush module 220, and the cleaning device 200 is adapted to the above-mentioned dust collecting mechanism.

[0059] Furthermore, the main brush module 220 includes a sealing device 221 , and the sealing device 221 is used to abut and seal with the blocking device 300 .

[0060] In one embodiment, the cleaning device 200 includes a main brush module 220, and the blocking device 300 is adapted to the size of the air inlet 210 on the main brush module 220 to completely block the air inlet 210. The main brush module 220 includes a main brush cover, which is provided with the air inlet 210. If the main brush module 220 on the cleaning device 200 has a lifting function, then when the cleaning device 200 is in the dust collection position 100 of the dust collection mechanism, that is, after the cleaning device 200 is piled up, the main brush module 220 will automatically descend. At this time, the sealing device 221 will contact the blocking device 300, thereby achieving the sealing of the air inlet 210 through the abutment and sealing between the sealing device 221 and the blocking device 300, thereby reducing the noise generated from the air inlet 210 when the cleaning device 200 is in operation.

[0061] Furthermore, the sealing device 221 is provided along the circumference of the air inlet 210 , and the sealing device 221 is a sealing strip.

[0062] The sealing device 221 can be a simple sealing strip, which is circumferentially arranged along the air inlet 210 on the main brush cover. A sealing soft glue is applied on the sealing strip. When the cleaning equipment 200 is piled up, the main brush module 220 is lowered, and the sealing soft glue realizes the abutment seal between the sealing strip and the blocking device 300, and then realizes the abutment seal between the main brush module 220 and the blocking device 300. Through the simple sealing strip and sealing soft glue, a good seal between the main brush module 220 and the blocking device 300 can be achieved, thereby further reducing the noise generated during dust collection.

[0063] Further, such as Figure 6 As shown, the cleaning device 200 includes a dust box 230 , a vent 231 is provided on the dust box 230 , and a sound-absorbing cotton 232 is provided at the vent 231 .

[0064] The silencer cotton 232 is fixed to the vent 231 of the dust box 230 inside the cleaning device 200 by utilizing the ribs at the vent 231 of the dust box 230 , and is used to silence the wind noise at the vent 231 of the dust box 230 .

[0065] An embodiment of the present invention further provides a cleaning system, which includes the above-mentioned dust collection mechanism or cleaning device.
