[0078] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of the present application.

[0079] Please refer to Figure 1 The base station 100 provided in the embodiments of the present application is suitable for the parking of the cleaning equipment 200, wherein the cleaning equipment 200 includes but is not limited to a scrubber, an automatic cleaning robot, etc., for cleaning, for example, a floor, and the following will take the cleaning equipment 200 as a scrubber for example.

[0080] The cleaning equipment 200 includes an equipment body and a cleaning element 210 arranged on the equipment body, and the cleaning element 210 includes but is not limited to a roller brush, a cleaning cloth, etc., and is used for cleaning a floor, a table top, etc. to be cleaned. For example, when the cleaning equipment 200 cleans the floor, the cleaning element 210 can wet mop or dry mop the floor, and after the cleaning is completed, the cleaning equipment 200 returns to the base station 100, and the cleaning equipment 200 starts a self-cleaning function, for example, the cleaning element 210 rotates around its own axis and continuously supplies water to the cleaning element 210, so that the cleaning element 210 is self-cleaned. However, the cleaned cleaning element 210 has a large amount of water, in order to avoid the problem that the cleaning element 210 is in a wet state for a long time and bacteria are easily bred and odor is generated, in the embodiments of the present application, the base station 100 further has a drying assembly 120 for drying the cleaning element 210, so that the cleaning element 210 can be quickly dried after being cleaned, thereby improving the user experience.

[0081] The base station 100 provided in the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0082] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The base station 100 provided in the embodiments of the present application includes a base station body 110 and a drying assembly 120 arranged on the base station body 110, wherein the base station body 110 is provided with a parking position for parking the cleaning equipment 200, when the cleaning equipment 200 is parked on the parking position, the cleaning element 210 faces the drying assembly 120, so that the drying assembly 120 performs a drying operation on the self-cleaned cleaning element 210, so that the cleaning element 210 can be quickly dried, avoiding the problem that the cleaning element 210 breeds bacteria and generates odor due to wetness, thereby improving the user experience.

[0083] Please refer toFigure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the drying component 120 includes a heating element 121, which is used to generate heat. For example, the heating element 121 can generate heat by being powered on. The heat generated by the heating element 121 is transferred to the cleaning element 210 to dry the cleaning element 210.

[0084] The heating element 121 includes but is not limited to a resistive heating element 121 , an infrared heating element 121 , an induction heating element 121 or other structures that can generate heat, which is not limited here.

[0085] In some embodiments, as Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the drying component 120 also includes a heat exchange element 122. At least part of the structure of the heat exchange element 122 is arranged between the heating element 121 and the cleaning element 210 to isolate the heating element 121 and the cleaning element 210. The heat generated by the heating element 121 is transferred to the cleaning element 210 through the heat exchange element 122. In this way, the heating element 121 can be prevented from directly contacting the cleaning element 210, and the cleaning element 210 can be prevented from touching the heating element 121 and causing damage to the heating element 121, thereby extending the service life of the heating element 121.

[0086] That is to say, the heat exchange element 122 can isolate and protect the heating element 121. In addition, the heat exchange element 122 can directly contact the cleaning element 210 to quickly transfer the heat generated by the heating element 121 to the cleaning element 210, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency between the cleaning element 210 and the cleaning element 210.

[0087] Among them, the area of ​​the heat exchange element 122 facing the cleaning element 210 can be larger than the surface area of ​​the heating element 121. In this way, the heat of the heating element 121 is transferred to the heat exchange element 122, and the heat exchange element 122 can transfer and radiate the heat to the cleaning element 210 through a larger area, thereby improving the drying uniformity and drying efficiency of the cleaning element 210.

[0088] It is understandable that the heat exchange element 122 is made of a material with good thermal conductivity, and the heat exchange element 122 has good thermal conductivity, so as to transfer the heat generated by the heating element 121 to the cleaning element 210, thereby improving the drying effect.

[0089] In some embodiments, the heat exchange member 122 is wrapped around at least a part of the outer periphery of the heat generating body 121. In this way, on the one hand, the contact area between the heat generating body 121 and the heat exchange member 122 can be increased, so that the heat generated by the heat generating body 121 can be quickly transferred to the heat exchange member 122, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency between the heat exchange member 122 and the cleaning member 210. On the other hand, the heat exchange member 122 can be formed as a protective shell of the heat generating body 121, so as to protect the heat generating body 121 and prolong the service life of the heat generating body 121.

[0090] As shown in an example, Figure 4 and Figure 5 the heat exchange member 122 is wrapped around the outer periphery of the heat generating body 121, that is, the heat generating body 121 is entirely wrapped by the heat exchange member 122. In this way, the contact area between the heat generating body 121 and the heat exchange member 122 can be further increased, so as to improve the efficiency of transferring the heat generated by the heat generating body 121 to the heat exchange member 122. In addition, the heat generating body 121 is entirely wrapped by the heat exchange member 122, so that the heat exchange member 122 can protect the heat generating body 121 in all directions, thereby further improving the reliability of protecting the heat generating body 121 and prolonging the service life of the heat generating body 121.

[0091] In some embodiments, the heat generating body 121 and the heat exchange member 122 can be formed as an integrated structure. For example, when the heat exchange member 122 is made of a heat-conducting non-metallic material, the heat exchange member 122 and the heat generating body 121 can be formed as an integrated structure by embedding and injection molding. When the heat exchange member 122 is made of a heat-conducting metallic material, the heat exchange member 122 and the heat generating body 121 can be formed as an integrated structure by die casting.

[0092] As shown in another example, Figure 6 the heat exchange member 122 is wrapped around the heat generating body 121 in a split manner. For example, the drying assembly 120 further comprises a fixing member 124, which is arranged on the side of the heat generating body 121 away from the heat exchange member 122 and connected with the heat exchange member 122. The heat exchange member 122 and the fixing member 124 jointly form a receiving cavity, and the heat generating body 121 is arranged in the receiving cavity. That is, the fixing member 124 and the heat exchange member 122 jointly wrap the heat generating body 121 to form a protective shell of the heat generating body 121.

[0093] In some embodiments, the fixing member 124 and the heat exchange member 122 can be fixedly connected or connected by a detachable connection.

[0094] In some embodiments, the fixing member 124 can be a fixing plate, the heat exchange member 122 can be a heat exchange plate, and the heat generating body 121 is wrapped between the fixing plate and the heat exchange plate.

[0095] Exemplarily, the fixing member 124 and the heat exchange member 122 can be threadedly connected through screws, bolts or the like; or the fixing member 124 and the heat exchange member 122 are fixedly connected through welding or bonding; or one of the fixing member 124 and the heat exchange member 122 is provided with a buckle and the other is provided with a clamping groove, and the fixing member 124 and the heat exchange member 122 are clamped through the buckle and the clamping groove; or one of the fixing member 124 and the heat exchange member 122 is provided with a first magnetic member, and the other is provided with a second magnetic member, and the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member can be magnetically attracted to each other. The first magnetic member and the second magnetic member can both be magnets; or one of the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member is a magnet, and the other can be a soft magnetic body magnetized by the magnet, for example, the soft magnetic body includes but is not limited to a metal material such as iron that can be magnetized by a magnet and can be attracted by a magnet.

[0096] In some embodiments, the extension direction of the heat generating body 121 is the same as the extension direction of the cleaning member 210, wherein the length of the heat generating body 121 can be increased to increase the area of heat generated by the heat generating body 121, thereby increasing the heat radiation length of the heat generating body 121, and further improving the efficiency and uniformity of drying the cleaning member 210.

[0097] Exemplarily, the length and width of the heat exchange member 122 can be greater than the size of the heat generating body 121, so that the heat generated by the heat generating body 121 is transmitted to the cleaning member 210 through the heat exchange member 122, which can further increase the area of heat transmission and improve the uniformity and efficiency of drying the cleaning member 210.

[0098] Since there is a temperature difference between the position close to the heat generating body 121 of the heat exchange member 122 and the edge position away from the heat generating body 121 of the heat exchange member 122 in a short time, in order to make the heat of the heat generating body 121 be transmitted to the edge of the heat exchange member 122 more quickly, so that the temperature of the heat exchange member 122 quickly reaches uniformity, and the time of heat balance of the heat exchange member 122 is shortened, thereby improving the drying efficiency and drying uniformity of the cleaning member 210.

[0099] To solve the above problems and achieve the purposes, in the embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the side of the heat exchange member 122 away from the cleaning member 210 has a heat conduction structure 123, which is used to transmit the heat generated by the heat generating body 121 from the side of the heat exchange member 122 close to the heat generating body 121 to the side of the heat exchange member 122 away from the heat generating body 121, so that the heat exchange member 122 can quickly reach heat balance, thereby improving the uniformity of heat radiation of the heat exchange member 122 to the cleaning member 210, and further improving the drying uniformity of the cleaning member 210.

[0100] It can be understood that the heat-conducting structure 123 is connected between the side of the heat-exchanging member 122 close to the heat-generating body 121 and the side of the heat-exchanging member 122 away from the heat-generating body 121, so that the heat generated by the heat-generating body 121 can be directly transferred from the side close to the heat-generating body 121 to the side away from the heat-generating body 121 of the heat-exchanging member 122, avoiding the problem of poor heat balance caused by slow heat dissipation to the surrounding.

[0101] In addition, by arranging the heat-conducting structure 123 on the heat-exchanging member 122, the problem of low heat balance efficiency of the heat-exchanging member 122 caused by the structure such as holes between the side of the heat-exchanging member 122 close to the heat-generating body 121 and the side of the heat-exchanging member 122 away from the heat-generating body 121 can be avoided.

[0102] In order to further improve the heat balance of the heat-exchanging member 122, the heat-conducting structure 123 is arranged along the circumferential direction of the heat-generating body 121, so that the heat on the side of the heat-exchanging member 122 close to the heat-generating body 121 can be quickly transferred to the edge of the heat-exchanging member 122 through the heat-conducting structure 123, thereby shortening the heat balance time of the heat-exchanging member 122.

[0103] For example, the heat-generating body 121 is in a strip shape, the length of the heat-exchanging member 122 is approximately equal to the length of the heat-generating body 121, and the heat-conducting structure 123 is arranged on at least one side of the heat-generating body 121 along the extension direction of the heat-generating body 121, so that the heat-conducting structure 123 on the two sides of the heat-generating body 121 can quickly transfer the heat to the edge of the heat-exchanging member 122, thereby shortening the heat balance time of the heat-exchanging member 122.

[0104] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 8 The heat-conducting structure 123 includes a plurality of heat-conducting protrusions arranged in sequence along the extension direction of the heat-generating body 121, and each heat-conducting protrusion is connected between the side of the heat-exchanging member 122 close to the heat-generating body 121 and the side of the heat-exchanging member 122 away from the heat-generating body 121, so as to transfer the heat on the side close to the heat-generating body 121 to the edge of the side away from the heat-generating body 121 of the heat-exchanging member 122 through the plurality of heat-conducting protrusions.

[0105] For example, as shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 The heat-conducting protrusion can be a heat-conducting protrusion rib connecting the side of the heat-exchanging member 122 close to the heat-generating body 121 and the side of the heat-exchanging member 122 away from the heat-generating body 121, and the plurality of heat-conducting protrusion ribs can be arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the heat-generating body 121.

[0106] The heat-conducting protrusion can be integrally formed with the heat-exchanging member 122 into an integral structure by an injection molding or casting integral molding process, so as to reduce the installation process and lower the process cost.

[0107] For example, as shown in Figure 8As shown in the figure, the heat-conducting protrusions are long strip structures extending from the side close to the heat-generating body 121 to the side away from the heat-generating body 121. In addition, the cross-sectional shape of the heat-conducting protrusions along the direction perpendicular to the extension direction thereof can be any shape such as a circle, an ellipse, a polygon, an irregular figure, etc., as long as the heat can be quickly transferred to the edge of the heat-exchanging member 122, which is not limited herein.

[0108] The material of the heat-conducting protrusions can be the same as that of the heat-exchanging member 122, i.e., has good heat-conducting performance, or the heat-conducting performance of the material of the heat-conducting protrusions can be higher than that of the heat-exchanging member 122, so as to improve the overall heat balance efficiency of the heat-exchanging member 122.

[0109] In some embodiments, as shown in the figure, Figure 11 The base station body 110 is provided with an air duct 111, and the heat-exchanging member 122 has a plurality of air outlet holes 1221 in communication with the air duct 111. The air duct 111 has an air inlet end in communication with external air, and the air outlet holes 1221 are in communication with the air outlet end of the air duct 111. In this way, the airflow entering the air duct 111 through the air inlet end can be blown to the cleaning member 210 through the air outlet holes 1221 from the air outlet end, so as to accelerate the flow of the airflow on the cleaning member 210, quickly remove the moisture and steam on the cleaning member 210, and thus improve the drying efficiency of the cleaning member 210.

[0110] In some embodiments, when the heat-generating body 121 is in a long strip shape, the plurality of air outlet holes 1221 form at least two rows, and the at least two rows of air outlet holes 1221 are symmetrically arranged on the opposite sides of the heat-generating body 121. In this way, the flow of the airflow on the cleaning member 210 can be increased through the multiple rows of air outlet holes 1221, so as to improve the drying efficiency. Meanwhile, the opposite sides of the heat-generating body 121 also have heat-conducting structures 123. The plurality of air outlet holes 1221 and the plurality of heat-conducting protrusions arranged on the same side of the heat-generating body 121 are alternately arranged along the extension direction of the heat-generating body 121, i.e., the air outlet holes 1221 are arranged between the adjacent two heat-conducting protrusions, or the heat-conducting protrusions are arranged between the adjacent two air outlet holes 1221. In this way, the airflow blown to the cleaning member 210 through the air outlet holes 1221 can accelerate the removal of the steam and moisture on the cleaning member 210, and the heat-conducting protrusions can quickly transfer the heat to the edge of the heat-exchanging member 122, so that the heat-exchanging member 122 quickly reaches the heat balance, and thus the heat-exchanging member 122 radiates heat to the cleaning member 210, so as to improve the drying uniformity of the cleaning member 210.

[0111] To improve the flow rate and intensity of the airflow in the air duct 111, in some embodiments, a fan 112 is further arranged in the air duct 111 to accelerate the flow intensity of the airflow in the air duct 111 through the fan 112, so as to improve the flow rate and intensity of the airflow blown to the cleaning element 210 through the air outlet hole 1221, thereby improving the efficiency of evaporating the steam and moisture on the cleaning element 210 and further improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning element 210.

[0112] In addition, the fan 112 can further be provided with a heating mechanism 113 such as a heating wire, which is used to improve the temperature of the airflow in the air duct 111, so that the air blown out through the air outlet hole 1221 is hot air, thereby accelerating the evaporation of the moisture and steam on the cleaning element 210 and improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning element 210.

[0113] In some embodiments, the lowest position of the air outlet hole 1221 is not lower than the highest liquid level of the cleaning element 210 during self-cleaning, so that the cleaning liquid can be prevented from entering the base station body 110 through the air outlet hole 1221 during self-cleaning of the cleaning element 210, thereby reducing the risk of water leakage and electric leakage of the base station 100 and improving the safety and reliability during user operation. At the same time, the liquid entering the base station body 110 can also be prevented from flowing out of the base station body 110, thereby avoiding water stains on the ground and further improving the user experience.

[0114] For example, the lowest position of the air outlet hole 1221 on the heat exchange element 122 is higher than the highest liquid level of the cleaning element 210 during self-cleaning, so as to further reduce the risk of the cleaning liquid entering the base station 100 through the air outlet hole 1221.

[0115] In some embodiments, the air outlet hole 1221 on the heat exchange element 122 can be formed by injection molding, casting, or cold stamping process. Regardless of injection molding, casting or stamping, the air outlet hole 1221 needs to be formed by a mold matching the air outlet hole 1221, for example, a punch matching the hole diameter size of the air outlet hole 1221. However, if the cross-sectional size of the mold for forming the air outlet hole 1221 is too small, the mold may be broken during the forming process of the air outlet hole 1221. Therefore, in order to improve the strength of the mold, in the embodiments of the present application, the minimum width size of the air outlet hole 1221 is greater than 1 mm, that is, the cross-sectional maximum size of the mold for forming the air outlet hole 1221 is greater than 1 mm, so as to ensure the strength of the mold.

[0116] In addition, by making the maximum width of the air outlet 1221 greater than 1 mm, in addition to increasing the mold strength of the formed air outlet 1221, it can also avoid the whistling phenomenon of the wind blown out through the air outlet 1221 when the air flow rate of the cleaning part 210 is too high, thereby reducing the noise when drying the cleaning part 210 and improving the user experience.

[0117] Among them, the cross-sectional shape along the axial direction of the air outlet 1221 can be circular, elliptical, polygonal, etc., and the maximum width of the air outlet 1221 refers to the maximum size of the cross-section along the axial direction of the air outlet 1221. For example, when the transverse cross-section of the air outlet 1221 is circular, the maximum width dimension of the air outlet 1221 is the diameter dimension of the air outlet 1221; when the cross-sectional shape of the air outlet 1221 is elliptical, the maximum width dimension of the air outlet 1221 is the dimension in the long axis direction of the ellipse; when the cross-sectional shape of the air outlet 1221 is rectangular, the maximum width dimension of the air outlet 1221 is the dimension of the long side of the rectangle.

[0118] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 2 to 10 As shown, the side of the heat exchange member 122 facing the cleaning member 210 has a plurality of spaced heat exchange bosses 1222. It can be understood that the heat exchange bosses 1222 can increase the surface area of ​​the heat exchange member 122. When the cleaning device 200 is docked on the base station body 110, at least part of the heat exchange bosses 1222 is embedded in the cleaning member 210. In this way, the heat generated by the heating element 121 can be transferred to the interior of the cleaning member 210 through the heat exchange bosses 1222, thereby increasing the contact area and contact depth with the cleaning member 210, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0119] In addition, when the cleaning element 210 rotates around its own axis, the heat exchange boss 1222 can contact different positions inside the cleaning element 210 and comb the cleaning element 210. During the combing process, the volatilization efficiency of moisture and steam inside the cleaning element 210 is improved, which can avoid the problem of secondary condensation of steam in the cleaning element 210, and further improve the drying efficiency and drying effect of the cleaning element 210.

[0120] In some embodiments, multiple heat exchange bosses 1222 can be arranged at intervals along the first direction and the second direction on the heat exchange element 122 to increase the area covered by the heat exchange bosses 1222 on the heat exchange element 122, so that the multiple heat exchange bosses 1222 are respectively embedded in different positions inside the cleaning element 210 to improve the volatilization efficiency of moisture and steam inside the cleaning element 210, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning element 210.

[0121] The cross section shape along the extending direction of the heat exchange boss 1222 includes, but is not limited to, at least one of a circle, an ellipse, a polygon, or any regular or irregular shape, as long as it can be embedded in the interior of the cleaning member 210, which is not limited herein.

[0122] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 4 to 7 The cross section size of the heat exchange boss 1222 gradually decreases from the bottom to the top along the extending direction of the heat exchange boss 1222, that is, the end surface size of the end of the heat exchange boss 1222 facing the cleaning member 210 is smaller than the end surface of the end of the heat exchange boss 1222 facing the heat exchange member 122, so that the heat exchange boss 1222 is inserted into the interior of the cleaning member 210, and the resistance of the heat exchange boss 1222 entering the interior of the cleaning member 210 is reduced.

[0123] For example, as shown in Figures 4 to 10 The cross section shape of the heat exchange boss 1222 is a circle, and the heat exchange boss 1222 is a conical circular truncated cone with a circular cross section, and the end of the heat exchange boss 1222 facing the cleaning member 210 is the small end.

[0124] For another example, as shown in Figures 12 to 17 The cross section shape of the heat exchange boss 1222 is a long strip structure, so that the heat exchange boss 1222 is a square boss structure with a long strip shape of a rectangular or approximately rectangular cross section, and the side wall of the square boss is conical, the end surface size of the end of the heat exchange boss 1222 facing the cleaning member 210 is smaller than the end surface size of the end away from the cleaning member 210, that is, the end of the heat exchange boss 1222 facing the cleaning member 210 is the small end.

[0125] In order to reduce the frictional resistance of the heat exchange boss 1222 entering the interior of the cleaning member 210 and increase the heat exchange efficiency between the heat exchange member 122 and the cleaning member 210, in the embodiments of the present application, the cross section size of the heat exchange boss 1222 can be reduced and the number of the heat exchange boss 1222 can be increased, so that the smaller heat exchange boss 1222 can reduce the resistance of entering the interior of the cleaning member 210 and the frictional resistance when the cleaning member 210 and the heat exchange boss 1222 relatively move, and in addition, by increasing the number of the heat exchange boss 1222, the heat exchange area between the heat exchange member 122 and the cleaning member 210 can be increased, so that both the frictional resistance between the heat exchange boss 1222 and the cleaning member 210 and the heat exchange efficiency between the heat exchange member 122 and the cleaning member 210 are achieved.

[0126] When the heat exchange boss 1222 is a square boss, the corners between the adjacent side walls have rounded corners, so that the frictional resistance between the heat exchange boss 1222 and the cleaning member 210 can be further reduced.

[0127] It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, by arranging the heat exchange protrusions 1222 on the side of the heat exchange member 122 facing the cleaning member 210, the contact area and the contact depth between the heat exchange member 122 and the cleaning member 210 can be increased, so that the heat exchange efficiency between the heat exchange member 122 and the cleaning member 210 is improved, and the drying efficiency of the cleaning member 210 is improved.

[0128] In some embodiments, the height of the heat exchange protrusion 1222 is 1 mm to 5 mm along the extension direction of the heat exchange protrusion 1222. For example, the height of the heat exchange protrusion 1222 is 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, or 5 mm.

[0129] In addition, the maximum width dimension of the top end surface of the heat exchange protrusion 1222 is 1 mm to 2.5 mm. For example, the maximum width dimension of the top end surface of the heat exchange protrusion 1222 is 1 mm, 1.5 mm, 2 mm, 2.5 mm, or the like. The maximum width dimension of the bottom end surface of the heat exchange protrusion 1222 is 3 mm to 6 mm. For example, the maximum width dimension of the bottom end surface of the heat exchange protrusion 1222 is 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, or 6 mm. In this way, the strength of the heat exchange protrusion 1222 is ensured, and the frictional resistance between the heat exchange protrusion 1222 and the cleaning member 210 is reduced.

[0130] When the heat exchange member 122 has a plurality of heat exchange protrusions 1222, the plurality of heat exchange protrusions 1222 can form at least two heat exchange protrusion groups, and the at least two heat exchange protrusion groups can be arranged at intervals in the second direction on the heat exchange member 122. Each row of heat exchange protrusion groups includes at least two heat exchange protrusions 1222 arranged at intervals in the first direction. Adjacent two heat exchange protrusions 1222 between adjacent two heat exchange protrusion groups can be located on the same straight line or staggered arrangement. For example, the at least two rows of heat exchange protrusion groups are staggered in the second direction (as shown in FIG. 13A), or arranged in a straight line in the second direction (as shown in FIG. 13B). Figure 2 For example, as shown in FIG. 13A, the cross-sectional shape of the heat exchange protrusion 1222 is circular, and the at least two rows of heat exchange protrusion groups are staggered in the second direction (as shown in FIG. 13A). Figure 2 For example, as shown in FIG. 13B, the cross-sectional shape of the heat exchange protrusion 1222 is square, and the at least two rows of heat exchange protrusion groups are arranged in a straight line in the second direction (as shown in FIG. 13B). Figure 11 Figure 15

[0131] ​​In some embodiments, when the heat exchange member 122 has both the air outlet hole 1221 and the heat exchange boss 1222, the air outlet hole 1221 can be arranged at a position close to the heat exchange boss 1222, or the air outlet hole 1221 is arranged on the heat exchange boss 1222, so that when the heat exchange boss 1222 is embedded in the cleaning member 210, the air outlet hole 1221 can create conditions for forced convection, so that the air flow discharged through the air outlet hole 1221 can improve the heat exchange efficiency in the cleaning member 210.

[0132] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 10 and Figure 15 , the air outlet hole 1221 can be arranged between two adjacent heat exchange bosses 1222, and the heat exchange boss 1222 can increase the contact area and the contact depth with the cleaning member 210, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning member 210. The air outlet hole 1221 arranged between two adjacent heat exchange bosses 1222 can quickly remove the moisture and steam inside and on the surface of the cleaning member 210 through the flow of air, thereby avoiding the secondary condensation of steam and improving the heat exchange efficiency and the drying efficiency.

[0133] In other embodiments, as shown in Figure 9 , the air outlet hole 1221 can be arranged on the heat exchange boss 1222, thereby saving the area of the heat exchange member 122 for arranging the air outlet hole 1221, and more heat exchange bosses 1222 can be arranged on the heat exchange member 122, thereby increasing the contact area and the contact depth with the cleaning member 210, and improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0134] For example, as shown in Figure 9 , the hole of the air outlet hole 1221 can be arranged on the end face of the heat exchange boss 1222 facing the cleaning member 210, thereby increasing the depth of the air flow blown by the air outlet hole 1221 into the cleaning member 210, and improving the heat exchange efficiency in the cleaning member 210.

[0135] For another example, the hole of the air outlet hole 1221 can be arranged on the side wall of the heat exchange boss 1222 (not shown in the figure), for example, the hole of the air outlet hole 1221 is arranged at a position close to the middle of the side wall of the heat exchange boss 1222 along the extension direction of the heat exchange boss 1222 (i.e. the waist of the heat exchange boss 1222), thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency in the cleaning member 210 while reducing the risk of the unevaporated liquid in the cleaning member 210 seeping into the air duct 111 through the hole of the air outlet hole 1221.

[0136] In some embodiments, the drying assembly 120 further comprises a heat collecting member (not shown in the figure) arranged on the side of the heat generating member 121 and the heat exchanging member 122 away from the cleaning member 210, the heat collecting member is configured to collect the heat generated on the side of the heat generating member 121 away from the cleaning member 210, the heat collecting member defines a heat radiation area, and the cleaning member 210 is located in the heat radiation area, so that the heat collected by the heat collecting member is directly radiated to the cleaning member 210, thereby reducing the waste of heat, improving the utilization rate of heat, and further improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning member 210.

[0137] For example, the heat collecting member is arranged on the side of the heat exchanging upper cover away from the cleaning member 210, and the contour shape of the heat collecting member matches the contour shape of the heat exchanging upper cover, so that the heat collecting member can collect the heat released by the heat generating member through the heat exchanging upper cover, thereby reducing the loss of heat and improving the utilization rate of heat.

[0138] In some embodiments, the heat collecting member has a heat collecting area recessed toward the side away from the heat generating member, and the heat collecting area faces the cleaning member 210, so that the heat is collected in the heat collecting area, and the heat of the heat collecting area is directly radiated to the cleaning member 210, so that the utilization rate of heat can be further improved, and the waste of heat can be avoided.

[0142] In summary, in the base station and the cleaning system provided by the embodiments of the present application, a drying assembly is arranged on the base station body, the drying assembly comprises a heat exchanging member and a heat generating member, the heat exchanging member is arranged between the heat generating member and the cleaning member, the heat exchanging member has an air outlet hole in communication with the air duct, the air outlet hole faces the cleaning member, and the minimum width of the air outlet hole is greater than 1 mm, so that the airflow in the air duct is perpendicular to the cleaning member through the air outlet hole, the heat exchange efficiency between the air outlet hole and the cleaning member can be improved, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning member. In addition, by setting the minimum width of the air outlet hole to be greater than 1 mm, the strength of the mold for manufacturing the air outlet hole can be improved, thereby improving the yield of the air outlet hole.
