Entanglements include at least one of hair, silk threads, and flocs.

[0064] See also Figures 1 to 3 The cleaning base station 100 includes a housing 10 and at least two functional components. The housing 10 has an inner cavity 11 formed therein and a cleaning chamber 12 formed thereout. The cleaning chamber 12 is used to house the roller brush 210 and has a chamber wall 121 and an opening for the roller brush 210 to enter. At least a portion of the inner cavity 11 and a portion of the chamber wall 121 are located in front of the roller brush 210. At least a portion of the at least two functional components is disposed in the inner cavity 11 in front of the roller brush 210, and at least one of the at least two functional components maintains the roller brush 210 through the chamber wall 121 in front of the roller brush 210.

[0065] Exemplarily, the at least two functional components of the embodiment of the present application may include at least two of the cutting module 20, the air outlet component 30, the liquid supply component (not shown), the first heating component 40 and the lighting effect component 50, that is, it may include two, three, four or five functional components therein, and may also include other functional components, such as an onomatopoeia component, etc.

[0066] The cleaning base station 100 of the embodiment of the present application disposes at least part of at least two functional components in the inner cavity 11 located in front of the roller brush 210, resulting in a compact structure and achieving a reasonable layout within the limited space of the cleaning base station 100. In addition, since the exposed portion of the roller brush 210 of the cleaning device 200 is limited, the position on the cleaning base station 100 that can access the roller brush 210 is also limited. In the embodiment of the present application, at least one functional component is stacked in a position on the cleaning base station 100 that can access the roller brush 210 to maintain the roller brush 210 through the cavity wall 121 located in front of the roller brush 210, which can facilitate maintenance operations on the roller brush 210. The provision of at least two functional components diversifies the functions of the cleaning base station 100, which helps to improve the user experience.

[0067] Illustratively, at least part of the inner cavity 11 is located in front of the rolling brush 210 . The entire area of ​​the inner cavity 11 may be located in front of the rolling brush 210 , or only part of the inner cavity 11 may be located in front of the rolling brush 210 .

[0068] Exemplarily, at least part of at least two functional components are arranged in the inner cavity 11 located in front of the roller brush 210. It can be that all of at least two functional components are arranged in the inner cavity 11 located in front of the roller brush 210 to facilitate contact with the roller brush 210 for maintenance operations on the roller brush 210. It can also be that part of at least two functional components is arranged in the inner cavity 11 located in front of the roller brush 210, and this part can be a part for performing maintenance operations on the roller brush 210, so as to facilitate contact with the roller brush 210 for maintenance operations on the roller brush 210.

[0069] Exemplarily, at least one of the at least two functional components maintains the roller brush 210 through the cavity wall 121 located in front of the roller brush 210. One of the at least two functional components may be used to perform maintenance operations on the roller brush 210, and the remaining functional components may play other roles, such as being used to interact with the user, etc.; or more than two functional components may be used to perform maintenance operations on the roller brush 210.

[0070] See also Figures 2 to 4 、 Figure 9 In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include a cutting module 20, which includes a cutting assembly 21, a first seal 22, and a first drive assembly 23. A cavity wall 121 located in front of the roller brush 210 is provided with a chute 122, which connects the inner cavity 11 and the cleaning cavity 12. The chute 122 is arranged corresponding to the roller brush 210. The cutting assembly 21 is disposed in the chute 122, with at least a portion of the cutting assembly 21 located in the cleaning cavity 12 for cutting at least a portion of the entangled material on the roller brush 210. The first seal 22 is connected to the cutting assembly 21. The first drive assembly 23 is disposed in the inner cavity 11 and connected to the cutting assembly 21 and / or the first seal 22 to drive the cutting assembly 21 and at least a portion of the first seal 22 to move along the chute 122. During the movement of the cutting assembly 21 and at least a portion of the first seal 22 along the chute 122, the first seal 22 at least partially closes the chute 122 to separate the cleaning cavity 12 from the inner cavity 11. In this way, the first seal 22 can dynamically close at least part of the chute 122, and to a certain extent prevent dust or liquid from entering the inner cavity 11 through the chute 122, thereby ensuring that the electrical components in the inner cavity 11 can work normally.

[0071] In some embodiments, the extension direction of the chute 122 is parallel to the axis of the roller brush 210, so that the cutting assembly 21 can better clean the entangled objects on the roller brush 210 during the movement of the cutting assembly 21 along the chute 122. In some embodiments, the first sealing member 22 seals the entire chute 122 to separate the cleaning cavity 12 from the inner cavity 11, thereby improving the sealing effect.

[0072] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include an air outlet assembly 30 having an air outlet 31 disposed on the cavity wall 121 in front of the roller brush 210 and communicating with the cleaning cavity 12. The air outlet assembly 30 delivers air to the cleaning cavity 12 through the air outlet 31. Thus, the air outlet assembly 30 can dry the roller brush 210 placed in the cleaning cavity 12.

[0073] In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include a liquid supply component having a liquid outlet disposed on the cavity wall 121 in front of the roller brush 210 and communicating with the cleaning cavity 12; the liquid supply component delivers clean water and / or cleaning liquid to the cleaning cavity 12 through the liquid outlet. Thus, the liquid supply component delivers clean water and / or cleaning liquid to the cleaning cavity 12, thereby facilitating self-cleaning of the roller brush 210.

[0074] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include a first heating component 40, which is used to generate heat. The first heating component 40 is disposed on the cavity wall 121 of the cleaning chamber 12 below the roller brush 210 to transfer the generated heat to the roller brush 210. Therefore, disposing the first heating component 40 on the cavity wall 121 of the cleaning chamber 12 below the roller brush 210 facilitates the first heating component 40 from transferring heat to the roller brush 210. The first heating component 40 can heat the roller brush 210 to dry or iron the roller brush 210, or to heat the clean water and / or cleaning liquid in the cleaning chamber 12, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0075] For example, the first heating assembly 40 can be disposed on the outer side of the cavity wall 121 of the cleaning cavity 12, facing away from the roller brush 210. While being able to conduct heat to the roller brush 210 through the cavity wall 121 of the cleaning cavity 12 to dry it, it avoids contact with the clean water and / or cleaning liquid within the cleaning cavity 12. Of course, in other examples, the first heating assembly 40 can also be disposed on the inner side of the cavity wall 121 of the cleaning cavity 12, facing the roller brush 210, so as to directly contact the roller brush 210 to dry it.

[0076] In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include a lighting effect component 50, which is used to indicate the operating mode of the cleaning base station 100; wherein the lighting effect component 50 is located in front of the roller brush 210 and on top of the housing 10. Therefore, placing the lighting effect component 50 in front of the roller brush 210 and on top of the housing 10 facilitates the user to observe the display of the lighting effect component 50, thereby facilitating user interaction.

[0077] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include a cutting module 20 and an air outlet assembly 30, wherein the air outlet 31 is located above the chute 122 in the height direction of the cleaning base station 100. Therefore, positioning the air outlet 31 above the chute 122 allows the air outlet 31 to be located higher up, thereby preventing cut entanglements or waste such as sewage in the cleaning chamber 12 from entering the air outlet 31.

[0078] It can be understood that the above mentioned in the embodiments of the present application can be directly above or obliquely above.

[0079] In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include a cutting module 20 and a liquid supply component, wherein the liquid outlet is located below the chute 122 in the height direction of the cleaning base station 100. Therefore, the chute 122 is positioned above the liquid outlet to prevent the clean water and / or cleaning liquid output by the liquid supply component from entering the cutting module 20 through the chute 122, thereby avoiding water ingress problems.

[0080] In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include an air outlet component 30 and a liquid supply component, wherein the liquid outlet is located below the air outlet 31 in the height direction of the cleaning base station 100. Therefore, the position of the air outlet 31 is set above the liquid outlet to prevent the clean water and / or cleaning liquid output by the liquid supply component from entering the air outlet component 30 through the air outlet 31, thereby avoiding water ingress problems.

[0081] In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include an air outlet component 30 and a first heating component 40. Thus, through the cooperation of the air outlet component 30 and the first heating component 40, hot air can be generated, thereby achieving rapid drying of the roller brush 210.

[0082] In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include a liquid supply component and a first heating component 40. Thus, through the cooperation of the liquid supply component and the first heating component 40, the roller brush 210 can be heated when delivering clean water and / or cleaning liquid to the cleaning chamber 12, thereby heating the clean water and / or cleaning liquid during the self-cleaning process, realizing the hot water self-cleaning function and improving the cleaning effect.

[0083] In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include a cutting module 20 and a first heating component 40 , so that the cleaning base station 100 can not only cut the entanglement of the roller brush 210 , but also heat the roller brush 210 .

[0084] In some embodiments, the lighting effect component 50 is used to indicate the operating mode of the cleaning base station 100. The operating modes of the cleaning base station 100 include at least one of a cutting mode, a self-cleaning mode, a power-on mode, and a drying mode. The lighting effect component 50 is used to display different lighting effects corresponding to the different operating modes of the cleaning base station 100. Thus, different lighting effects can be displayed according to different operating modes, making it easier for users to distinguish the current operating mode of the cleaning base station 100 and improving the user interaction experience.

[0085] In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include a cutting module 20 and a lighting effect component 50. The cutting module 20 is used to cut at least a portion of the material wrapped around the roller brush 210. When the cutting module 20 is operating, the current operating mode of the cleaning base station 100 is the cutting mode. In this case, the lighting effect component 50 can display a first display animation. For example, the first display animation can correspond to the operation of the cutting module 20.

[0086] For example, in some embodiments, the lighting effect assembly 50 includes a light-emitting portion 51 arranged along the length of the roller brush 210. When the cutting assembly 21 cuts at least a portion of the windings on the roller brush 210, a portion of the light-emitting portion 51 illuminates, and the illuminated position moves with the movement of the cutting assembly 21. Furthermore, when the cutting assembly 21 cuts at least a portion of the windings on the roller brush 210, the light-emitting portion 51 switches between a fully illuminated state and a state where N segments of light are illuminated, where N is an integer greater than 2. For example, N can be 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or other integers.

[0087] It can be understood that when the cutting component 21 cuts at least part of the entanglement on the roller brush 210, the light-emitting portion 51 can be locally illuminated, and the light-emitting position moves with the movement of the cutting component 21. The first display animation displayed is like a meteor. It can also be that the light-emitting portion 51 changes between a fully illuminated state and an N-segment illuminated state, that is, it is displayed as N segments to indicate the first display animation that the entanglement is cut off.

[0088] In some embodiments, at least two functional components include an air outlet component 30 and a lighting effect component 50. When the air outlet component 30 is working, the current working mode of the cleaning base station 100 is the first drying mode, and the lighting effect component 50 can display a second animation, wherein the second display animation is different from the first display animation and can correspond to the working content of the air outlet component 30.

[0089] In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include a liquid supply component and a lighting effect component 50. When the liquid supply component is operating, the current operating mode of the cleaning base station 100 is the self-cleaning mode, and the lighting effect component 50 can display a third animation, wherein the third animation is different from the first and second animations and can correspond to the operating content of the liquid supply component.

[0090] In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include a first heating component 40 and a lighting effect component 50. When the first heating component 40 is operating alone, the current operating mode of the cleaning base station 100 is the second drying mode, and the lighting effect component 50 can display a fourth animation, wherein the fourth animation is different from the first, second, and third animations and can correspond to the operating content of the first heating component 40.

[0091] When the first heating component 40 works together with the air outlet component 30, the current working mode of the cleaning base station 100 is the third drying mode, and the lighting effect component 50 can display the fifth animation, wherein the fifth animation is different from the first, second, third and fourth animations.

[0092] In some embodiments, the at least two functional components include an onomatopoeic component (not shown) and a cutting module 20. The cutting module 20 is used to cut at least a portion of the windings on the roller brush 210. While the cutting module 20 is cutting at least a portion of the windings on the roller brush 210, the onomatopoeic component is used to emit a cutting prompt sound. For example, the onomatopoeic component can be a sound-emitting device, such as a speaker, mounted anywhere on the base 10b. As the windings are being cut, the speaker emits onomatopoeic sounds, such as "squeaking" or "clicking," to alert the user that the windings are being cut, thereby enhancing the user interaction experience.

[0093] See also Figures 4 to 7 In some embodiments, the cutting assembly 21 includes a base 211, a cutting member 212 and an adjusting member 213. The cutting member 212 is used to cut at least part of the entanglement on the roller brush 210; the adjusting member 213 is respectively connected to the base 211 and at least part of the cutting member 212, so that at least part of the cutting member 212 moves relative to the base 211 in a preset direction to abut the roller brush 210.

[0094] The cutting assembly 21 of the above embodiment, since at least part of the cutting member 212 (such as the fixed blade 2121) can abut the roller brush 210, at least part of the entangled material on the roller brush 210 is peeled off from the roller brush 210, making it easier for the cutting member 212 to cut the entangled material, thereby cleaning the entangled material on the roller brush 210. Secondly, since the cutting assembly 21 includes an adjusting member 213, the adjusting member 213 is respectively connected to the base 211 and at least part of the cutting member 212, so that at least part of the cutting member 212 moves relative to the base 211 in a preset direction to abut the roller brush 210. Therefore, even if there is a deviation in the assembly position of the roller brush 210 when the cleaning device 200 is assembled, or there is a deviation in the placement position of the roller brush 210 relative to the base 211, or the roller brush 210 ages and its diameter becomes smaller, or the cutting assembly 21 is used to clean roller brushes 210 of different specifications, the adjusting member 213 can Adjusting the position of at least a portion of the cutting element 212 in a predetermined direction so that at least a portion of the cutting element 212 abuts the roller brush 210 allows the cutting assembly 21 to peel off and cut at least a portion of the entangled material on the roller brush 210, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the entangled material on the roller brush 210. This also helps reduce or even eliminate the assembly deviation requirements for the roller brush 210 and the placement deviation requirements for the roller brush 210 when assembling the cleaning device 200, allowing the cleaning of roller brushes 210 of different specifications, thereby expanding the application range of the cutting assembly 21. Furthermore, when the cutting assembly 21 is cleaning entangled material on the roller brush 210, the adjusting element 213 can adjust the position of at least a portion of the cutting element 212 in a predetermined direction so that at least a portion of the cutting element 212 abuts the roller brush 210. This prevents the cutting element 212 from rigidly colliding with the roller brush 210, ensuring that the cutting assembly 21 does not damage the roller brush 210 during the cleaning process, thereby improving the user experience.

[0095] Exemplarily, the first driving assembly 23 includes a driving motor, which can automatically drive the cutting assembly 21 to reciprocate in a direction parallel to the axis of the roller brush 210 without the need for manual operation by the user, thereby improving the user experience.

[0096] In some embodiments, the cutting assembly 21 may simply be a hook blade that can hook and cut entanglements on the roller brush 210, but does not have the function of shearing the entanglements. In some embodiments, the cutting assembly 21 may include a serrated blade to cut the entanglements. For example, the cutting assembly 21 may include two serrated blades, which reciprocate to create a shearing action, thereby shearing the entanglements on the roller brush 210.

[0097] See also Figures 5 to 7In some embodiments, the cutting assembly 21 may be structured similar to scissors. For example, the cutting assembly 21 includes a fixed blade 2121 and a movable blade 2122. The fixed blade 2121 is close to the roller brush 210, while the movable blade 2122 is away from the roller brush 210. For another example, the cutting assembly 21 includes a fixed blade 2121 and a movable blade 2122. The movable blade 2122 is close to the roller brush 210, while the fixed blade 2121 is away from the roller brush 210.

[0098] Exemplarily, the fixed blade 2121 and the movable blade 2122 of the cutting member 212 can cooperate to form a cutting opening 2123, the hooked end of the fixed blade 2121 can peel off at least part of the entanglement on the roller brush 210 to the cutting opening 2123, and the movable blade 2122 can move relative to the fixed blade 2121 so that the cutting member 212 can cut the entanglement at the cutting opening 2123.

[0099] In some embodiments, the preset direction is perpendicular to the axis direction of the roller brush 210. This arrangement can save more effort while ensuring that at least part of the cutting member 212 can move along the preset direction.

[0100] For example, the preset direction is as follows Figure 7 As shown in the Y direction in FIG. For example, the axis direction of the roller brush 210 is parallel to Figure 7 For example, the axis of the roller brush 210 is as follows: Figure 7 As shown by the dotted line m in .

[0101] In some embodiments, the adjusting member 213 is an elastic member. When the elastic member abuts the roller brush 210, the elastic member causes minimal damage to the roller brush 210, and the structure is simple. For example, the elastic member includes a spring. In other embodiments, the adjusting member 213 may also be a repulsive member or a motor feedback member.

At the same time, the space layout within the base 10b can be utilized, resulting in a compact structure and avoiding increasing the volume of the cleaning base station 100.

[0103] In some embodiments, the length of the air outlet 31 along the axis of the roller brush 210 is configured to match the length of the roller brush 210. Thus, setting the length of the air outlet 31 to match the length of the roller brush 210 facilitates drying or air-drying the entire roller brush 210, thereby improving drying or air-drying efficiency.

[0104] In some embodiments, the air outlet assembly 30 further includes an airflow dispersion structure 35, which includes a plurality of air guide plates 351 spaced apart along the extension direction of the air outlet 31. The plurality of air guide plates 351 are used to disperse the airflow so that the airflow is evenly output to the roller brush 210. Thus, the provision of the plurality of air guide plates 351 can disperse the airflow, so that the airflow is more evenly distributed to various parts of the roller brush 210, thereby improving the drying or air-drying efficiency.

The liquid tank is used to hold clean water and / or cleaning liquid, and the liquid supply conduit is used to connect the liquid tank and the liquid outlet to deliver the clean water and / or cleaning liquid in the liquid tank to the cleaning chamber 12 through the liquid outlet. The liquid tank and the liquid supply conduit can be disposed within the inner cavity 11 of the housing 10 and at least partially located in front of the roller brush 210. For example, the liquid tank can deliver clean water and / or cleaning liquid to the cleaning chamber 12 via a pump or gravity, thereby facilitating self-cleaning of the roller brush 210. The liquid supply assembly can also replace the liquid tank with an external water source.

[0106] Exemplarily, the liquid storage tank can be used to hold clean water or cleansing fluid separately.Certainly, in other examples, the liquid storage tank can also be used to hold a mixed solution of clean water and cleansing fluid.
