Therefore, the features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the fact that they can be implemented by ordinary technicians in this field. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this utility model.

[0085] The present application proposes a cleaning base station, which is at least used to maintain a roller brush of a cleaning device.

[0086] Among them, the cleaning base station refers to a device used in conjunction with the cleaning equipment. The cleaning base station can provide maintenance for the cleaning equipment to keep the cleaning equipment in good working condition, greatly reducing the frequency of manual cleaning and reducing the workload of daily maintenance. For example, the cleaning base station can be used to charge the cleaning equipment, collect dust, or clean the roller brush of the cleaning equipment (also known as the self-cleaning of the cleaning equipment). The cleaning equipment can enter through the base station entrance. After the cleaning equipment reaches the docking position, the cleaning base station can maintain the roller brush of the cleaning equipment. Maintenance includes but is not limited to injecting cleaning fluid into the roller brush of the cleaning equipment or cutting at least part of the entanglement on the roller brush.

[0087] Cleaning equipment can be active cleaning equipment, which can autonomously move forward, backward, and turn to reach the surface to be cleaned. This type of active cleaning equipment has intelligent features that can automatically adjust its cleaning path based on environmental changes. The appropriateness of the cleaning path depends on the device's intelligence level. Active cleaning equipment uses built-in sensors, algorithms, and control systems to achieve automatic navigation, obstacle identification, and cleaning path planning, thereby completing cleaning tasks. For example, a sweeping robot uses built-in sensors to perceive the environment and uses a navigation system to plan the optimal cleaning path. It then cleans the floor through functions such as vacuuming, sweeping, and / or mopping. This type of active cleaning equipment can automatically avoid obstacles and avoid re-cleaning areas that have already been cleaned, thereby improving cleaning efficiency and quality. Active cleaning equipment includes but is not limited to sweeping robots, vacuuming robots, sweeping and mopping robots, and window cleaning robots. Accordingly, the surface to be cleaned can be the floor, wall, window surface, bed surface, etc.

[0088] Cleaning equipment can also be passive, requiring user control to move the cleaning device to the surface to be cleaned. These devices typically have a handle that the user holds and pushes the roller brush across the surface to clean. Passive cleaning equipment includes, but is not limited to, handheld floor scrubbers, handheld vacuum cleaners, or handheld mite removers. Accordingly, the surface to be cleaned can be the floor, wall, window, bed, etc.

[0089] Since the cleaning equipment uses a roller brush to clean the surface to be cleaned, in order to improve the cleaning efficiency, the roller brush is usually a long strip of cleaning parts. Therefore, the maintenance component of the roller brush needs to be driven by the driving component and moved along the axial direction of the roller brush to gradually complete the maintenance of the roller brush. In order to reduce the weight of the cleaning equipment, the maintenance component of the roller brush is usually set on the cleaning base station. Therefore, the driving component is set inside the cleaning base station. In order to realize the driving component driving the maintenance component to maintain the roller brush, a chute is set on the shell of the cleaning base station to leave an escape space for the movement of the maintenance component. However, dirt (including solid waste and / or liquid, etc.) can easily enter the interior of the cleaning base station through the chute, causing the driving component to get stuck or water to enter, causing damage.

[0090] The utility model provides a cleaning base station that can solve the above problems. The cleaning base station is described in detail below.

[0091] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 In one embodiment of the present application, the cleaning base station 100 includes a shell 10, a maintenance component 20, a first seal 30 and a first drive component 40. The shell 10 is provided with an inner cavity 11, and the outer portion of the shell 10 is provided with a cleaning cavity 12. The cleaning cavity 12 is used to place a roller brush 201. The cleaning cavity 12 has a cavity opening 121 for the roller brush 201 to enter; a cavity wall 122 of the cleaning cavity 12 is provided with a chute 123, the chute 123 connects the inner cavity 11 and the cleaning cavity 12, and the chute 123 is arranged corresponding to the roller brush 201; the maintenance component 20 is arranged in the chute 123, and at least part of the maintenance component 20 is located in the cleaning cavity 12 for maintaining the roller brush 201.

[0092] In this embodiment, the cleaning chamber 12 is the area within the cleaning base station 100 where the roller brush 201 of the cleaning device 200 is placed. The roller brush 201 can perform self-cleaning in this area. When the roller brush 201 of the cleaning device 200 is placed in the cleaning chamber 12, the cleaning base station 100 can control the maintenance component 20 to perform maintenance on the roller brush 201. Maintenance includes, but is not limited to, cleaning with water spray, cleaning with a cleaning liquid, and cutting at least part of any entanglements on the roller brush 201.

[0093] It should be noted that the corresponding arrangement of the chute 123 and the roller brush 201 means that the position of the chute 123 is set so that the maintenance assembly 20 can at least contact the roller brush 201 after passing through the chute 123. In some embodiments, the chute 123 is located in front of the roller brush 201, in which case the maintenance assembly 20 inserted into the chute 123 is also located in front of the roller brush 201. In other embodiments, in the height direction, the chute 123 is located slightly below (no more than 1 cm) the axis of the roller brush 201 or is approximately flush with the axis of the roller brush 201; in this case, the maintenance assembly 20 is also located in front of the roller brush 201 and slightly below (no more than 1 cm) the axis of the roller brush 201, or is also located approximately flush with the axial direction of the roller brush 201, to facilitate maintenance of the roller brush 201. That is to say, the maintenance component 20 is located in front of the cleaning chamber 12, or the inner cavity 11 is located in front of the cleaning chamber 12, or the maintenance component 20 and the inner cavity 11 are both located in front of the cleaning chamber 12; so that after the cleaning device 200 is placed in the cleaning chamber 12, the roller brush 201 and the slide groove 123 are arranged correspondingly, and the maintenance component 20 can maintain the roller brush 201.

[0094] In some embodiments, the maintenance component 20 is any functional component that moves along the axial direction of the roller brush 201 to maintain the roller brush 201; for example, the maintenance component 20 can be a cutting component, and the cutting component is at least partially located in the cleaning chamber 12, so as to cut at least part of the entanglement on the roller brush 201; of course, in other embodiments, the maintenance component 20 can also be a cleaning liquid adding component to add cleaning liquid to the roller brush 201, and the cleaning liquid can be clean water or a cleaning liquid containing a strong decontamination agent, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0095] Among them, the first seal 30 is connected to the maintenance component 20, and the first drive component 40 is arranged in the inner cavity 11 and connected to the maintenance component 20 and / or the first seal 30 to drive the maintenance component 20 and at least part of the first seal 30 to move along the slide groove 123 together; in the process of the maintenance component 20 and at least part of the first seal 30 moving along the slide groove 123 together, the first seal 30 at least partially closes the slide groove 123 to separate the cleaning cavity 12 and the inner cavity 11.

[0096] After the cleaning device 200 is placed in the cleaning base station 100 through the base station entrance, the roller brush 201 of the cleaning device 200 is located in the cleaning chamber 12, and the cleaning device 200 can perform self-cleaning in the cleaning chamber 12. During the movement of the maintenance component 20 along the chute 123, the first sealing member 30, driven by the first driving component 40, moves along the chute 123 together with the maintenance component 20, so as to at least partially close the chute 123 to separate the cleaning chamber 12 and the inner chamber 11, thereby achieving dynamic separation of the cleaning chamber 12 and the inner chamber 11, isolating the dirt on the roller brush 201 or the dirt generated by the roller brush 201 during self-cleaning of the cleaning chamber 12 on the outside of the shell 10, and located in the cleaning chamber 12, thereby reducing the probability of dirt entering the inner chamber 11 through the chute 123, thereby avoiding affecting the normal operation of the various mechanisms of the inner chamber 11, ensuring the operational stability of the cleaning base station 100, and extending the service life of the cleaning base station 100. When the maintenance assembly 20 is stopped, the first sealing member 30 still keeps separating the clean chamber 12 and the inner chamber 11 , so that the chute 123 can separate the clean chamber 12 and the inner chamber 11 in all states.

[0097] In this embodiment, the first sealing member 30 is connected to the maintenance assembly 20 in a fixed or detachable manner. For example, a snap-fit ​​connection can be used to allow the first sealing member 30 to be installed or removed from the maintenance assembly 20, facilitating user replacement and maintenance. Of course, other connection methods can also be used, as long as the first sealing member 30 and the maintenance assembly 20 can be connected and moved together, and this embodiment of the application is not limited thereto.

[0098] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the first drive component 40 can be connected to the maintenance component 20, and in other embodiments, it can also be connected to the first seal 30, or connected to the maintenance component 20 and the first seal 30 at the same time. As long as the first drive component 40 can drive the maintenance component 20 and at least part of the first seal 30 to move along the slide groove 123, the embodiments of the present application are not limited here.

[0099] In some embodiments, the first seal 30 closes the slide groove 123 in two situations: First, it may refer to the first seal 30 completely sealing the slide groove 123. In this case, the dirt, especially the liquid, in the cleaning chamber 12 will not enter the inner chamber 11, achieving a good sealing effect; Second, it may also refer to a very small gap between the first seal 30 and the slide groove 123, so that the first seal 30 can slide on the slide groove 123 to prevent excessive friction from affecting the sliding of the first seal 30 (which will also affect the performance of the first drive component 40 or cause the first seal 30 to deform in the long run). In this case, most of the dirt, especially the liquid, in the cleaning chamber 12 will be isolated outside the shell 10, and the probability of dirt entering the inner chamber 11 will be greatly reduced. Even if dirt (such as liquid) enters the inner chamber 11, the amount will not be too large and will not affect the normal operation of the components in the shell 10.

[0100] In some embodiments, part of the maintenance component 20 is located in the inner cavity 11, and the other part is passed through the slide groove 123, so that at least part of the maintenance component 20 can maintain the roller brush 201. The structure of the cleaning base station 100 designed in this way is more compact; in other embodiments, the maintenance component 20 can be passed through the slide groove 123, and its entirety is located on one side of the cleaning cavity 12 to facilitate maintenance of the roller brush 201.

[0101] In some embodiments, the extending direction of the slide groove 123 is parallel to the axial direction of the roller brush 201 .

[0102] In this embodiment, since the extension direction of the slide groove 123 is parallel to the axial direction of the roller brush 201, when the first drive component 40 drives the maintenance component 20 and at least part of the first seal 30 to move along the slide groove 123, the maintenance component 20 and the first seal 30 remain parallel to the roller brush 201, reducing the probability of the maintenance component 20 interfering with the roller brush 201 during movement and causing damage to the roller brush 201, and can also reduce the frequency of the maintenance component 20 being unable to move, and can further reduce the probability of the maintenance component 20 and the roller brush 201 being at a greater distance during movement, resulting in incomplete maintenance work.

[0103] As an embodiment, the height distance of the slide groove 123 relative to the axis of the roller brush 201 is less than or equal to 1 cm, so that the maintenance component 20 that partially extends out of the cleaning chamber 12 through the slide groove 123 can fit as closely as possible to the roller brush 201 located in the cleaning chamber 12, which is beneficial for the maintenance component 20 to maintain the roller brush 201 and improve the maintenance effect.

[0104] In one embodiment, the length of the chute 123 is greater than or equal to the length of the roller brush 201, and the range of movement of the maintenance assembly 20 along the extension direction of the chute 123 covers the length of the chute 123. This embodiment ensures that the maintenance assembly 20 can completely cover the length of the chute 123, thereby achieving effective maintenance of the entire roller brush 201, reducing the probability of missing maintenance on part of the roller brush 201, and making the maintenance work of the maintenance assembly 20 more efficient and thorough.

[0105] It should be noted that the “equal” here may also mean approximately equal, for example, there is a difference of ±1 mm between the length of the chute 123 and the length of the roller brush 201 .

[0106] The roller brush 201, a key component of the cleaning device 200, may become entangled with hair, fibers, and other entanglements during use. This not only affects the normal rotation of the roller brush 201 but also reduces cleaning effectiveness. To address this issue, as one embodiment, the maintenance assembly 20 is a cutting assembly, which is used to clean at least some of the entanglements on the roller brush 201. The cutting assembly can effectively cut away the entanglements on the roller brush 201, thereby keeping the roller brush 201 clean and efficient.

[0107] Of course, in other embodiments, the maintenance component 20 can also be a cleaning liquid adding component, which adds cleaning liquid (clean water or clean water mixed with a strong detergent) to the roller brush 201 to improve the cleaning effect, etc. The embodiments of the present application are not limited here.

[0108] In some embodiments, the first seal 30 may not be able to completely seal the chute 123 due to space or other factors. However, as long as the first seal 30 can partially seal the chute 123 , the probability of dirt entering the inner cavity 11 of the shell 10 can be reduced.

[0109] In some embodiments, the first seal 30 can completely seal the chute 123, thereby significantly reducing the probability of dirt entering the inner cavity 11. It should be noted that the position and length of the chute 123 are fixed. However, to ensure that the first seal 30 seals the chute 123 as the maintenance assembly 20 moves, the position of the first seal 30 used to seal the chute 123 is not fixed. Therefore, the length of the first seal 30 is greater than the length of the chute 123. The maintenance assembly 20 is located in the middle of the first seal 30, so that the first seal 30 seals the chute 123 during both the starting and ending positions of the chute 123. In one embodiment, the length of the first seal 30 is greater than or equal to twice the length of the chute 123.

[0110] In some embodiments, the first seal 30 is disposed within the housing 10. As at least a portion of the first seal 30 moves along the chute 123, the first seal 30 fills at least a portion of the chute 123 toward the side of the clean chamber 12, so that the first seal 30 is flush with the surface of the housing 10. In other words, the surface of the first seal 30 is on the same horizontal plane as the surface of the housing 10. This reduces the probability that dirt in the clean chamber 12 will be retained in the chute 123 and affect the normal operation of the first seal 30 and the maintenance assembly 20, thereby maintaining the cleanliness and hygiene of the chute 123 and ensuring that the first seal 30 has a sealing effect.

[0111] It should be noted that the flushness here may also mean approximately flushness, for example, there is a distance of ±1 mm between the first sealing member 30 and the surface of the housing 10 .

[0112] Please refer to Figures 4 to 6 In some embodiments, the first seal 30 includes a main body 31 and a filling portion 32. The filling portion 32 is protruding from the main body 31 on the side facing the cleaning chamber 12, and is used to fill at least part of the chute 123. It is flush with the surface of the shell 10. This can reduce the probability that dirt in the cleaning chamber 12 will be retained in the chute 123 and affect the normal operation of the first seal 30 and the maintenance component 20, thereby maintaining the cleanliness and hygiene of the chute 123 and ensuring that the first seal 30 has a sealing effect.

[0113] It should be noted that the flushness here may also mean approximately flushness, for example, there is a distance of ±1 mm between the first sealing member 30 and the surface of the housing 10 .

[0114] In some embodiments, the width of the filling portion 32 is equal to the width of the chute 123. It should be noted that the "equal" here can also be approximately equal, for example, there is a gap of less than 2 mm between the filling portion 32 and the chute 123, thereby reducing the probability of interference between the filling portion 32 and the chute 123 and stagnation.

[0115] In some embodiments, the filling portion 32 and the main body portion 31 have the same width, and the filling portion 32 and the main body portion 31 can be used as a whole to close the chute 123 .

[0116] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 4 to 7The first sealing member 30 may further include a main body portion 31 and a filling portion 32. In the width direction of the first sealing member 30, the width of the filling portion 32 is smaller than that of the main body portion 31. The filling portion 32 is protruding from the side of the main body portion 31 facing the clean chamber 12, and is used to fill at least a portion of the chute 123. The filling portion 32 is flush with the surface of the housing 10. In other words, the width of the main body portion 31 is greater than the width of the filling portion 32. Since the filling portion 32 has already filled the chute 123 (there may be a sliding gap), it can isolate most of the dirt. At the same time, the main body portion 31 having a larger width than the filling portion 32 can achieve a better isolation effect. Even if dirt enters the inner chamber 11 through the sliding gap between the filling portion 32 and the chute 123, the main body portion 31 can block the dirt that enters the inner chamber 11, thereby reducing the impact of the dirt that enters the inner chamber 11 on the internal environment of the housing 10.

[0117] As an embodiment, the width of the filling portion 32 is smaller than or equal to that of the main body portion 31 .

[0118] As an embodiment, a gap is provided between the filling portion 32 and the edge of the main body 31 in the width direction of the first seal 30, allowing the main body 31 to be located within the housing 10 while the filling portion 32 is located within the chute 123. This prevents the first seal 30 from easily falling out of the chute 123, and the main body 31 can further close the sliding gap between the filling portion 32 and the chute 123, reducing the probability of dirt entering the sliding gap and further penetrating into the inner cavity 11. Furthermore, a gap is provided between the filling portion 32 and the edges of both sides of the main body 31 in the width direction, ensuring stable installation of the first seal 30 in both the vertical and horizontal directions, and further reducing the probability of dirt entering the sliding gap and further penetrating into the inner cavity 11 in both the vertical and horizontal directions.

[0119] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 8 The first sealing member 30 further includes a shielding portion 33 connected to the filling portion 32. The shielding portion 33 is located outside the housing 10. The shielding portion 33 is wider than the width of the chute 123. In the width direction of the first sealing member 30, there is a gap between the edge of the shielding portion 33 and the chute 123. This arrangement allows the shielding portion 33 to block the sliding gap between the chute 123 and the filling portion 32, reducing the probability of dirt entering the inner cavity 11 through the sliding gap. Furthermore, in the width direction of the first sealing member 30, there is a gap between the shielding portion 33 and the chute 123 on both sides of the width direction. This arrangement blocks the sliding gap between the chute 123 in the vertical direction, further reducing the probability of dirt entering the inner cavity 11 through the sliding gap.

[0120] As an embodiment, in the width direction of the first seal 30, the upper edge of the shielding portion 33 is higher than the edge of the roller brush cover 202 of the cleaning device 200 close to the shielding portion 33, or the upper edge of the shielding portion is higher than the highest point where the roller brush 201 contacts the shell 10. Such a setting can minimize the probability of dirt entering the chute 123 or the inner cavity 11 through the gap between the shielding portion 33 and the shell 10.

[0121] It should be noted that, for the embodiment using the shielding portion 33 , the width of the filling portion 32 may be set smaller so that there is a larger gap between the filling portion 32 and the sliding groove 123 to reduce sliding friction.

[0122] As an embodiment, the width of the first seal 30 is greater than or equal to the width of the slide groove 123 . The first seal 30 covers the slide groove 123 , thereby improving the sealing effect of the slide groove 123 and preventing dirt from entering the inner cavity 11 from the slide groove 123 .

[0123] Please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, the housing 10 is provided with a guide groove 13 , at least a portion of the guide groove 13 is connected to the slide groove 123 , and at least a portion of the first sealing member 30 is slidably disposed in the guide groove 13 .

[0124] In this embodiment, at least a portion of the notch of the guide groove 13 is connected to the slide groove 123, allowing at least a portion of the first seal 30 to slide within the guide groove 13, thereby guiding the movement of the first seal 30 and ensuring the sealing and stability of the first seal 30 during movement. The length of the guide groove 13 can be consistent with the length of the first seal 30, that is, the first seal 30 is disposed in the guide groove 13 along the entire length direction. Alternatively, the guide groove 13 can be disposed only at key locations, such as at a bend to assist the first seal 30 in turning, or at the slide groove 123 to ensure the installation stability of the first seal 30.

[0125] In some embodiments, specifically, at least part of the guide groove 13 includes an upper guide groove 131 and a lower guide groove 132 , which are respectively located above and below the slide groove 123 , and the notch of the upper guide groove 131 and the notch of the lower guide groove 132 are arranged opposite to each other.

[0126] In this embodiment, the ends of the first seal 30 are located in the upper guide groove 131 and the lower guide groove 132, respectively. When the first seal 30 moves along the slide groove 123, the ends of the first seal 30 slide in the upper guide groove 131 and the lower guide groove 132, respectively, thereby further improving the sealing and stability of the first seal 30 during movement. In addition, the guide groove 13 of this embodiment is divided into the upper guide groove 131 and the lower guide groove 132, which facilitates the installation and removal of the first seal 30 in the guide groove 13.

[0127] In some embodiments, the first seal 30 is located outside the housing 10, and the width of the first seal 30 is greater than or equal to the width of the chute 123, and the first seal 30 covers the chute 123. This arrangement can reduce the probability of dirt entering the chute 123.

[0128] As an embodiment, the first seal 30 is attached to the outer surface of the housing 10; this arrangement can reduce the probability of dirt entering the chute 123. The position of the first seal 30 can be flexibly adjusted according to specific application scenarios and design requirements. It can be placed on the outer surface or the inner surface of the housing 10 to meet different sealing and protection requirements.

[0129] As an embodiment, when the first seal 30 is disposed outside the housing 10, a gap exists between the edge of the first seal 30 and the chute 123 in the width direction of the first seal 30. This allows the first seal 30 to overlap more with the housing 10 near the chute 123, thereby making it difficult for dirt to enter the chute 123 or the inner cavity 11. Furthermore, in the width direction of the first seal 30, a gap exists between both side edges of the first seal 30 and the chute 123 in the width direction, so that both sides of the chute 123 in the width direction can be covered by the first seal 30, further reducing the probability of dirt entering the chute 123 or the inner cavity 11.

[0130] As an embodiment, when the first seal 30 is disposed outside the housing 10, in the width direction of the first seal 30, the upper edge of the first seal 30 is higher than the edge of the roller brush cover 202 of the cleaning device 200 close to the first seal 30, or the upper edge of the first seal 30 is higher than the highest point where the roller brush 201 contacts the housing 10. This arrangement can minimize the probability of dirt entering the chute 123 or the inner cavity 11 through the gap between the first seal 30 and the housing 10.

[0131] In some embodiments, the shell 10 also includes a storage chamber 14, which is located outside the length range of the slide groove 123 and is connected to the inner chamber 11; the maintenance component 20 moves along the slide groove 123 and enters the storage chamber 14, and the storage chamber 14 is used for parking the maintenance component 20.

[0132] In this embodiment, the maintenance component 20 moves along the slide groove 123 to perform the task, and then the maintenance component 20 can move along the slide groove 123 into the storage cavity 14 to be parked and stored for the next use. That is, when the maintenance component 20 is not needed, the maintenance component 20 can be parked in the storage cavity 14 to store the maintenance component 20.

[0133] The number of storage chambers 14 can be one, two, or more than two, and can be specifically designed according to actual conditions. This embodiment of the present application does not limit this. As a preferred embodiment of the present application, there is one storage chamber 14, and it is located on one side outside the length range of the chute 123 and connected to the inner chamber 11. Compared with the arrangement of multiple storage chambers 14, the arrangement of a single storage chamber 14 can save space and facilitate the layout of the overall structure.

[0134] In some embodiments, the shell 10 includes an opening 15, which is connected to one end of the slide groove 123, and the opening 15 is connected to the storage chamber 14 and the cleaning chamber 12. At least part of the maintenance component 20 located in the cleaning chamber 12 moves along the slide groove 123 and enters the storage chamber 14 through the opening 15, ensuring that the maintenance component 20 can enter the storage chamber 14 for parking and storage.

[0135] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 The cleaning base station 100 also includes a second sealing member 50, which is used to close the opening 15 to separate the cleaning chamber 12 and the storage chamber, thereby reducing the probability of dirt in the cleaning chamber 12 entering the inner cavity 11 and / or the storage chamber 14 through the opening 15, thereby avoiding affecting the normal operation of various mechanisms in the inner cavity 11 and / or the storage chamber 14, ensuring the operational stability of the cleaning base station 100, and extending the service life of the cleaning base station 100.

[0136] As an embodiment, the second sealing member 50 is a flexible member; when the maintenance component 20 moves along the slide groove 123 into and out of the storage cavity 14 , the forward force of the maintenance component 20 causes the flexible member to deform to open the opening 15 .

[0137] When the maintenance assembly 20 starts working, the first drive assembly 40 drives the maintenance assembly 20 to move from the storage chamber 14 to the chute 123. As the force of the maintenance assembly 20 acting on the flexible member, the flexible member will deform due to the pressure, thereby opening the opening 15, allowing the maintenance assembly 20 to enter the cleaning chamber 12 and maintain the roller brush 201 in the cleaning chamber 12. When the maintenance assembly 20 finishes working and returns to the storage chamber 14 along the chute 123, when the maintenance assembly 20 passes through the second sealing member 50, due to the friction between the flexible member and the maintenance assembly 20, the flexible member can block the dirt remaining on the maintenance assembly 20 from the inner chamber 11, thereby reducing the probability that the garbage remaining on the maintenance assembly 20 enters the inner chamber 11 and affects the operation of the internal mechanism of the inner chamber 11. Under normal conditions, the flexible member can also play a certain role in blocking the cleaning chamber 12 and the storage chamber 14, reducing the probability that the dirt in the cleaning chamber 12 enters the storage chamber 14.

[0138] In this embodiment, the second seal 50 can be made of silicone material, which has sufficient elasticity and can adapt to different shapes and sizes when subjected to external pressure or friction, thereby maintaining a good sealing effect. At the same time, it helps to reduce wear and damage of mechanical parts and is easier to replace and maintain.

[0139] As an embodiment, the second sealing member 50 is a brush, which acts as a seal to prevent dust, impurities or other unwanted substances from entering the inner cavity 11. At the same time, the brush also has a certain degree of elasticity and flexibility, and can adapt to and maintain the movement of the assembly 20 to a certain extent.

[0140] Of course, in other embodiments, the second sealing member 50 may also be a resistance sealing member made of other silicone materials, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0141] As an embodiment, the second sealing member 50 includes an upper sealing portion and a lower sealing portion, and the upper sealing portion and the lower sealing portion are respectively disposed above and below the opening 15 .

[0142] In this embodiment, to achieve effective sealing, the upper and lower sealing portions are positioned adjacent to each other in the vertical direction of the opening 15. The upper and lower sealing portions work together to form a complete sealing system. As the maintenance assembly 20 moves along the chute 123 into and out of the storage chamber 14, the forward force of the maintenance assembly 20 causes the upper and lower sealing portions to deform, respectively, thereby opening the opening 15. Compared to an integrally disposed second sealing member 50, this embodiment, by disposing the second sealing member 50 separately, can reduce the forward force required to deform the maintenance assembly 20, thereby making the movement of the maintenance assembly 20 along the chute 123 smoother and reducing the probability of jamming or stagnation.

[0143] In some embodiments, the cleaning base station 100 further includes a controller that communicates with the first drive assembly 40. The controller is disposed within the robot body and is used to control the cleaning robot to perform specific operations. The controller may be, for example, a central processing unit (CPU) or a microprocessor. The controller is in communication with the first drive assembly 40 to control the first drive assembly 40.

[0144] Specifically, when the roller brush 201 does not need maintenance, the controller controls the first drive assembly 40 to drive the maintenance assembly 20 to stay in the storage chamber 14 or return to the storage chamber 14 along the slide groove 123 to achieve parking and storage of the maintenance assembly 20 for next use.

[0145] When the roller brush 201 needs maintenance, the controller controls the first driving assembly 40 to drive the maintenance assembly 20 to move along the chute 123 , from the storage chamber 14 to the chute 123 , and maintain the roller brush 201 along the chute 123 .

[0146] In some embodiments, the cleaning base station 100 further includes a detection module (not shown), which is communicatively connected to the controller and configured to detect whether the roller brush 201 of the cleaning device 200 is located within the cleaning chamber 12 of the cleaning base station 100. When the detection module detects that the roller brush 201 is located within the cleaning chamber 12, it sends a maintenance signal to the controller. The controller controls the first drive assembly 40 to drive the maintenance assembly 20 and at least a portion of the first sealing member 30 to move along the chute 123 according to the maintenance signal, so that the maintenance assembly 20 maintains the roller brush 201. At the same time, the first sealing member 30 at least partially closes the chute 123 to separate the cleaning chamber 12 from the inner cavity 11, thereby achieving automatic maintenance and improving the user experience.

[0147] For example, the detection module may be a photoelectric sensor, which triggers the controller to control the first driving component 40 through changes in the light signal. Of course, this is only an example and is not limited in the present embodiment.

[0148] As an embodiment, the first sealing member 30 is deformable, the first sealing member 30 and the maintenance assembly 20 are annular as a whole, and the first sealing member 30 is located in the housing 10 .

[0149] In this embodiment, the first seal 30 can be made of silicone, which has sufficient elasticity to deform when subjected to pressure or external forces, reducing wear and tear. It can also adapt to different shapes and sizes, thereby maintaining a good sealing effect. Furthermore, the first seal 30 and the maintenance assembly 20 are generally annular, and the first seal 30 is located within the housing 10, effectively reducing the space occupied by the housing 10 and achieving a compact structure while ensuring sealing performance.

[0150] Of course, in other embodiments, the first seal 30 can also be located outside the shell 10 and cover the slide groove 123. As long as the first seal 30 can move along the slide groove 123 together with the maintenance component 20 and can close the slide groove 123, the embodiments of the present application are not limited here.

[0151] Please refer to Figure 11 The housing 10 further includes a first guide column 16 and a second guide column 17; the first guide column 16 and the second guide column 17 are respectively located at the two ends of the slide groove 123 relative to the slide groove 123, and the connecting line between the two is parallel to the extension direction of the slide groove 123, the first seal 30 is wound around the first guide column 16 and the second guide column 17, and the first guide column 16 and the second guide column 17 are arranged in the ring.

[0152] In this embodiment, the first guide column 16 and the second guide column 17 are provided to support the overall shape of the first sealing member 30 and keep the first sealing member 30 in a tensioned state, thereby facilitating the movement of the first sealing member 30 .

[0153] In this embodiment, the height of the first guide column 16 and the second guide column 17 can be the same as the width of the first seal 30, or the length of the first guide column 16 and the second guide column 17 can be slightly larger than the width of the first seal 30, so as to reduce the probability of large fluctuations in the up and down directions of the first seal 30 during movement, thereby improving the movement stability of the first seal 30.

[0154] As an embodiment, the number of the first guide columns 16 and the second guide columns 17 can be two respectively, the two first guide columns 16 are respectively located at the same end of the slide groove 123 and are spaced apart, and the two second guide columns 17 are respectively located at the other same end of the slide groove 123 and are spaced apart. The connecting line between each first guide column 16 and a second guide column 17 is parallel to the extension direction of the slide groove 123. By adjusting the spacing between the two first guide columns 16 and the spacing between the two second guide columns 17, the annular size of the first seal 30 can be adjusted to be suitable for shells 10 of different sizes.

[0155] Of course, in other embodiments, the number of the first guide pillars 16 and the second guide pillars 17 may be three or more respectively, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0156] Please continue to refer to Figure 11 and Figure 12 The maintenance component 20 includes a base 21 and a maintenance piece 22. The maintenance piece 22 is arranged on the base 21. The base 21 is arranged in the inner cavity 11 and can be slid along the slide groove 123. The two ends of the first sealing piece 30 are connected to the base 21 at intervals. The first driving component 40 is transmission-connected to the base 21 to drive the base 21 to drive the maintenance piece 22 and part of the first sealing piece 30 to move along the slide groove 123.

[0157] In this embodiment, the base 21 serves as a supporting structure for carrying other components, realizing the connection between the first seal 30 and the maintenance component 22, and ensuring that they can move along a preset path (a sliding path formed by the slide groove 123 and / or the first guide column 16, the second guide column 17 and / or the guide groove 13); and by precisely controlling the output force and motion trajectory of the first drive component 40, the base 21 can drive the maintenance component 22 and part of the first seal 30 to move along the slide groove 123.

[0158] It should be noted that the base 21 can be slidably set along the slide groove 123 in a sliding connection manner of a slide rail, a sliding connection manner driven by a screw rod 42, or a sliding connection manner driven by a synchronous wheel. It can be specifically set according to actual conditions and is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0159] Please continue to refer to Figure 12 As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the first driving component 40 includes a driving member 41 and a screw rod 42. The extension direction of the screw rod 42 is the same as the extension direction of the slide groove 123. The screw rod 42 is connected to the output end of the driving member 41. The base 21 can be slidably arranged on the screw rod 42. The driving member 41 is used to drive the screw rod 42 to drive the base 21 to move along the screw rod 42.

[0160] In this embodiment, the driving member 41 can be a rotary motor, the output end of the rotary motor is connected to the screw rod 42, and the base 21 can be slidably arranged on the screw rod 42. Through the cooperation between the screw rod 42 and the rotary motor, the rotary motion of the rotary motor is converted into the linear motion of the base 21 along the screw rod 42, thereby realizing the precise movement of the maintenance member 22 and part of the first seal 30.

[0161] In this embodiment, the rotating motor can rotate forward and reverse to drive the base 21 to move back and forth along the screw rod 42, thereby driving the maintenance member 22 and part of the first sealing member 30 to move back and forth together, repeatedly maintaining the roller brush 201 to improve the maintenance effect.

[0162] Of course, in other embodiments, the driving member 41 may be other power components, and the screw rod 42 may also be a transmission structure of a gear rack or a synchronous belt, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0163] In some embodiments, the inner side of the first seal 30 forms an installation space 34, and the screw rod 42 is disposed within the projection of the installation space 34 on the bottom surface of the housing 10. In other words, the screw rod 42 is located within the installation space 34 enclosed by the first seal 30. This arrangement utilizes the space of the first seal 30. By installing the screw rod 42 within the space enclosed by the first seal 30, the need for additional space can be effectively reduced, thereby saving space. In this embodiment, reasonable design and layout not only facilitate the compact layout of the cleaning base station 100, but also improve the reliability and stability of the cleaning base station 100, ensuring that each mechanism can operate normally and efficiently within a limited space.

[0164] The present application also provides a cleaning system, comprising a cleaning device 200 and a cleaning base station 100 as described above. The cleaning device 200 includes a roller brush 201. When the cleaning device 200 is placed on the cleaning base station 100, the roller brush 201 is located in the cleaning chamber 12. The cleaning base station 100 is used in conjunction with the cleaning device 200, and the cleaning base station 100 is used at least to maintain the cleaning device 200. Maintenance includes, but is not limited to, charging, dust collection, cleaning the roller brush 201, drying the roller brush 201, cutting off objects wrapped around the roller brush 201, replenishing fresh water, and pumping out wastewater.

[0165] Since the cleaning system adopts all the technical solutions of all the embodiments of the cleaning base station 100 described above, the cleaning system of the present disclosure also has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described one by one here.

[0166] The above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for the purpose of clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the manner in which the present invention may be implemented. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other variations or modifications based on the above description are possible. This list of all possible embodiments is not exhaustive. Any obvious variations or modifications arising from the technical solution of the present invention remain within the scope of protection of the present invention.
