At the same time, such an arrangement enables the electrode 101 circuit board and the control circuit board 4 to be basically suspended in the cleaning device body 2, which helps to reduce the impact of environmental vibration on the electrode 101 circuit board and the control circuit board 4.

[0040] In summary, the sidewalls of the cleaning chamber groove in this device limit the cleaning chamber 1 horizontally 360°. As long as the cleaning chamber groove is maintained on the top surface of the cleaning device body 2 during movement, the cleaning chamber 1 can be guaranteed not to fall out of the cleaning chamber groove.
