[0073] In order to make the above objectives, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more apparent, clear and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0074] Please refer to Figure 1 The embodiments of the present application provide a base station 100, which is suitable for parking of a cleaning device 200, wherein the cleaning device 200 includes but is not limited to a scrubber, an automatic cleaning robot and the like for cleaning, for example, a floor, and the following will take the cleaning device 200 as a scrubber for example.

[0075] The cleaning device 200 includes a device body and a cleaning element 210 arranged on the device body, and the cleaning element 210 includes but is not limited to a roller brush, a cleaning cloth and the like, and the cleaning element 210 is used for cleaning a floor, a table top and the like to be cleaned. For example, when the cleaning device 200 cleans the floor, the cleaning element 210 can wet mop or dry mop the floor, and after the cleaning is completed, the cleaning device 200 returns to the base station 100, and the cleaning device 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 performs self-cleaning; 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, bacteria are easily bred, odor is generated and the like, in the embodiments of the present application, the base station 100 further includes 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.

[0076] The base station 100 provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0077] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the base station 100 provided by 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 the cleaning device 200 to park, and when the cleaning device 200 is parked on the parking position, the cleaning element 210 faces the drying assembly 120 to perform drying operation on the cleaned cleaning element 210 by the drying assembly 120, so that the cleaning element 210 can be quickly dried, and problems such as breeding of bacteria and generation of odor due to dampness of the cleaning element 210 are avoided, thereby improving the use experience of the user.

[0078] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the drying assembly 120 includes a heating body 121, and the heating body 121 is used to generate heat, for example, the heating body 121 can generate heat by heating after being electrified, and the heat generated by the heating body 121 is transmitted to the cleaning element 210 to dry the cleaning element 210.

[0079] The heating body 121 includes but is not limited to a resistance heating body 121, an infrared heating body 121, an induction heating body 121 or other structures that can generate heat, which is not limited here.

[0080] As shown in Figures 2 to 5 , the drying assembly 120 further includes a heat exchange element 122, and at least part of the structure of the heat exchange element 122 is arranged between the heating body 121 and the cleaning element 210 to isolate the heating body 121 and the cleaning element 210, and the heat generated by the heating body 121 is transmitted to the cleaning element 210 through the heat exchange element 122, so that the heating body 121 can be avoided from directly contacting the cleaning element 210, and the phenomenon that the cleaning element 210 touches the heating body 121 to damage the heating body 121 can be avoided, and the service life of the heating body 121 can be prolonged.

[0081] That is, the heat exchange element 122 can isolate and protect the heating body 121, and in addition, the heat exchange element 122 can directly contact the cleaning element 210 to quickly transmit the heat generated by the heating body 121 to the cleaning element 210, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency between the cleaning element 210.

[0082] The area of the heat exchange element 122 facing the cleaning element 210 can be greater than the surface area of the heating body 121, so that the heat of the heating body 121 is transmitted to the heat exchange element 122, and the heat exchange element 122 can transmit 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.

[0083] It can be understood that the heat exchange member 122 is made of a good heat-conducting material, and the heat exchange member 122 has good heat-conducting performance, so as to transfer the heat generated by the heat generating body 121 to the cleaning member 210, and improve the drying effect.

[0084] In some embodiments, the heat exchange member 122 wraps at least a part of the outer circumferential side 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.

[0085] For example, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the heat exchange member 122 wraps the outer circumferential side 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.

[0086] In some embodiments, the heat generating body 121 and the heat exchange member 122 can be 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 into 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 into an integrated structure by die casting.

[0087] For example, as shown in Figure 6 , the heat exchange member 122 wraps 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 containing cavity, and the heat generating body 121 is arranged in the containing cavity. That is, the fixing member 124 and the heat exchange member 122 jointly wrap the heat generating body 121 to form a protective cover of the heat generating body 121.

[0088] In some embodiments, the fixing member 124 and the heat exchange member 122 can be fixedly connected or connected by a detachable connection.

[0089] 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.

[0090] For example, the fixing member 124 and the heat exchange member 122 can be threadedly connected by means of screws, bolts or the like; or the fixing member 124 and the heat exchange member 122 can be fixedly connected by welding or adhesion; 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 by 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.

[0091] 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.

[0092] For example, 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.

[0093] Because the temperature of the heat exchange member 122 close to the heat generating body 121 and the edge position of the heat exchange member 122 away from the heat generating body 121 will have a temperature difference 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 thermal equilibrium of the heat exchange member 122 is shortened, thereby improving the drying efficiency and drying uniformity of the cleaning member 210.

[0094] To solve the above problems and achieve the purposes, in the embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the side of the heat exchange member 122 away from the cleaning member 210 is provided with a heat conduction structure 123, which is used to transfer 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 thermal equilibrium, thereby improving the uniformity of the heat radiation of the heat exchange member 122 to the cleaning member 210, and further improving the drying uniformity of the cleaning member 210.

[0095] It can be understood that the heat conduction structure 123 is connected between the side of the heat exchange member 122 close to the heat generating body 121 and the side of the heat exchange 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 of the heat exchange member 122 away from the heat generating body 121, avoiding the problem of poor thermal equilibrium caused by slow heat dissipation to the surrounding.

[0096] In addition, by providing the heat conduction structure 123 on the heat exchange member 122, the problem of low thermal equilibrium efficiency of the heat exchange member 122 caused by the structure such as holes between the side of the heat exchange member 122 close to the heat generating body 121 and the side of the heat exchange member 122 away from the heat generating body 121 can also be avoided.

[0097] In order to further improve the thermal equilibrium of the heat exchange member 122, the heat conduction structure 123 is provided on the heat exchange member 122 along the circumferential direction of the heat generating body 121, so that the heat on the side of the heat exchange member 122 close to the heat generating body 121 can be quickly transferred to the edge of the heat exchange member 122 through the heat conduction structure 123, thereby shortening the heat equilibrium time of the heat exchange member 122.

[0098] For example, the heat generating body 121 is in a strip shape, the length of the heat exchange member 122 is approximately equal to the length of the heat generating body 121, and the heat conduction structure 123 is provided on at least opposite sides of the heat generating body 121 along the extension direction of the heat generating body 121, so that the heat conduction structures 123 located on the two sides of the heat generating body 121 can quickly transfer the heat to the edge of the heat exchange member 122, thereby shortening the heat equilibrium time of the heat exchange member 122.

[0099] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 8 As shown, the heat conduction structure 123 includes a plurality of heat conduction protrusions, the plurality of heat conduction protrusions are arranged in sequence along the extension direction of the heat generating body 121, and each heat conduction protrusion is connected between the side of the heat exchange member 122 close to the heat generating body 121 and the side of the heat exchange 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 of the heat exchange member 122 away from the heat generating body 121 through the plurality of heat conduction protrusions.

[0100] For example, referring to Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, the heat-conducting protrusions can be heat-conducting protrusions arranged on the heat exchange member 122 near and away from the heat-generating body 121; wherein a plurality of heat-conducting protrusions can be arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the heat-generating body 121.

[0101] The heat-conducting protrusions can be integrally formed with the heat exchange member 122 by an injection molding or casting process to form an integral structure, which can reduce the installation process and lower the process cost.

[0102] As shown in Figure 8 As shown in the drawings, the heat-conducting protrusions are long strip structures extending from the side near 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 perpendicular to the extension direction thereof can be any shape such as a circle, an ellipse, a polygon, an irregular shape, etc., as long as it can quickly transfer heat to the edge of the heat exchange member 122, which is not limited herein.

[0103] The material of the heat-conducting protrusions can be the same as that of the heat exchange member 122, i.e., having 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 exchange member 122, so as to improve the overall heat balance efficiency of the heat exchange member 122.

[0104] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 11 As shown, the base body 110 is provided with an air duct 111, and the heat exchange member 122 has a plurality of air outlets 1221 in communication with the air duct 111; wherein the air duct 111 has an air inlet end in communication with external air, and the air outlets 1221 are in communication with the air outlet end of the air duct 111; thus, the airflow entering the air duct 111 through the air inlet end can be blown to the cleaning member 210 through the air outlets 1221, so as to accelerate the flowability of the airflow on the cleaning member 210, quickly remove the moisture and steam on the cleaning member 210 through the flow of the airflow, and thus improve the drying efficiency of the cleaning member 210.

[0105] In some embodiments, when the heat-generating body 121 is in a long strip shape, the plurality of air outlets 1221 form at least two rows, and the at least two rows of air outlets 1221 are symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the heat-generating body 121, so that the flow of the air current on the cleaning piece 210 can be increased through the plurality of rows of air outlets 1221, thereby improving the drying efficiency; at the same time, the opposite sides of the heat-generating body 121 also have the heat-conducting structures 123, and the plurality of air outlets 1221 and the plurality of heat-conducting protrusions arranged on the same side and in the same row of the heat-generating body 121 are alternately arranged along the extension direction of the heat-generating body 121, that is, the air outlets 1221 are arranged between the adjacent two heat-conducting protrusions, or the heat-conducting protrusions are arranged between the adjacent two air outlets 1221, so that the air current blown to the cleaning piece 210 through the air outlets 1221 can accelerate the removal of the steam and moisture on the cleaning piece 210, and the heat-conducting protrusions can quickly transfer heat to the edge of the heat-exchanging piece 122, so that the heat-exchanging piece 122 quickly reaches thermal equilibrium, thereby radiating heat to the cleaning piece 210 through the heat-exchanging piece 122, to improve the drying uniformity of the cleaning piece 210.

[0106] In order to improve the flow rate and intensity of the air current in the air duct 111, in some embodiments, the air duct 111 is also provided with a fan 112, so that the flow intensity of the air current in the air duct 111 is accelerated through the fan 112, thereby improving the flow rate and intensity of the air current blown to the cleaning piece 210 through the air outlets 1221, thereby improving the efficiency of removing the steam and moisture on the cleaning piece 210, and further improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning piece 210.

[0107] In addition, the fan 112 can also be provided with a heating mechanism 113 such as a heating wire, and the heating mechanism 113 is used to increase the temperature of the air current in the air duct 111, so that the air blown out through the air outlets 1221 is hot air, thereby accelerating the evaporation of the moisture and steam on the cleaning piece 210, and improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning piece 210.

[0108] In some embodiments, the lowest position of the air outlet 1221 is not lower than the highest liquid level of the cleaning piece 210 during self-cleaning, so that when the cleaning piece 210 is self-cleaning, the cleaning liquid entering the base station body 110 through the air outlet 1221 can be avoided to soak the fan 112, circuit board and other devices located in the base station body 110, thereby reducing the risk of water leakage and electric leakage of the base station 100, and improving the safety and reliability of the user during operation; at the same time, it can also avoid the liquid entering the base station body 110 from flowing out of the base station body 110, causing water stains on the ground, thereby improving the user's experience.

[0109] For example, the lowest position of the air outlet 1221 on the heat-exchanging piece 122 is higher than the highest liquid level of the cleaning piece 210 during self-cleaning, to further reduce the risk of the cleaning liquid entering the base station 100 through the air outlet 1221.

[0110] In some embodiments, the air outlet 1221 on the heat exchanger 122 can be formed integrally with the heat exchanger 122 by injection molding or casting, or the air outlet 1221 can be formed by cold stamping. Whether the air outlet 1221 is formed by injection molding, casting or stamping, it needs to be formed by a mold that matches the air outlet 1221. For example, it needs to be formed by a punch that matches the diameter of the air outlet 1221. However, if the cross-sectional size of the mold forming the air outlet 1221 is too small, there is a risk of mold breakage during the formation of the air outlet 1221. Therefore, in order to improve the strength of the mold, in this embodiment, the minimum width of the air outlet 1221 is greater than 1 mm, that is, the maximum cross-sectional size of the corresponding mold forming the air outlet 1221 is greater than 1 mm, so as to ensure the strength of the mold.

[0111] In addition, by making the maximum width of the air outlet 1221 greater than 1mm, in addition to increasing the strength of the mold for forming the air outlet 1221, it can also prevent the air blown out of the air outlet 1221 from whistling when the airflow velocity of the cleaning part 210 is too high, thereby reducing the noise when drying the cleaning part 210 and improving the user experience.

[0112] The cross-sectional shape along the axial direction of the vertical air outlet 1221 can be circular, elliptical, polygonal, etc. The maximum width of the air outlet 1221 refers to the maximum dimension of the cross-section along the axial direction of the vertical air outlet 1221. For example, when the transverse cross-section of the air outlet 1221 is circular, the maximum width of the air outlet 1221 is the diameter of the air outlet 1221; when the cross-sectional shape of the air outlet 1221 is elliptical, the maximum width of the air outlet 1221 is the dimension along the major axis of the ellipse; when the cross-sectional shape of the air outlet 1221 is rectangular, the maximum width of the air outlet 1221 is the dimension of the long side of the rectangle.

[0113] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 2 to 10 As shown, the heat exchanger 122 has a plurality of spaced heat exchange protrusions 1222 on the side facing the cleaning component 210. It can be understood that the heat exchange protrusions 1222 can increase the surface area of ​​the heat exchanger 122. When the cleaning device 200 is parked on the base station body 110, at least a portion of the heat exchange protrusions 1222 are embedded in the cleaning component 210. In this way, the heat generated by the heating element 121 can be transferred to the interior of the cleaning component 210 through the heat exchange protrusions 1222, increasing the contact area and contact depth with the cleaning component 210, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0114] In addition, when the cleaning piece 210 rotates around its own axis, the heat exchange boss 1222 can be in contact with different positions inside the cleaning piece 210 and comb the cleaning piece 210, which improves the evaporation efficiency of water and steam inside the cleaning piece 210, avoids the problem of secondary condensation of steam inside the cleaning piece 210, and further improves the drying efficiency and drying effect of the cleaning piece 210.

[0115] In some embodiments, a plurality of heat exchange bosses 1222 can be arranged in the first direction and the second direction on the heat exchange piece 122 to increase the area covered by the heat exchange boss 1222 on the heat exchange piece 122, so that the plurality of heat exchange bosses 1222 are respectively embedded in different positions inside the cleaning piece 210 to improve the evaporation efficiency of water and steam inside the cleaning piece 210, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning piece 210.

[0116] The cross-sectional shape in the direction perpendicular to the extension 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 inside the cleaning piece 210, which is not limited here.

[0117] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 4 to 7 The cross-sectional size of the heat exchange boss 1222 gradually decreases from the bottom to the top along the extension direction of the heat exchange boss 1222, that is, the end face size of the end of the heat exchange boss 1222 facing the cleaning piece 210 is smaller than the end face of the end of the heat exchange boss 1222 facing the heat exchange piece 122. In this way, the heat exchange boss 1222 is inserted into the inside of the cleaning piece 210, and the resistance of the heat exchange boss 1222 into the inside of the cleaning piece 210 is reduced.

[0118] For example, as shown in Figures 4 to 10 The cross-sectional 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 facing the cleaning piece 210 is the small end of the heat exchange boss 1222.

[0119] For another example, as shown in Figures 12 to 17 The cross-sectional shape of the heat exchange boss 1222 is a strip-shaped structure, so that the heat exchange boss 1222 is a square boss structure with a rectangular or approximately rectangular cross-sectional shape, and the side wall of the square boss is conical. The end face size of the end facing the cleaning piece 210 is smaller than the end face size of the end away from the cleaning piece 210, that is, the end facing the cleaning piece 210 is the small end.

[0120] In order to reduce the frictional resistance of the heat exchange protrusions 1222 entering the interior of the cleaning piece 210, and increase the heat exchange efficiency between the heat exchange piece 122 and the cleaning piece 210, in the embodiment of the present application, the cross-sectional size of the heat exchange protrusions 1222 can be reduced, and the number of the heat exchange protrusions 1222 can be increased. In this way, the smaller heat exchange protrusions 1222 can reduce the resistance of entering the interior of the cleaning piece 210 and the frictional resistance when the cleaning piece 210 and the heat exchange protrusions 1222 move relative to each other. In addition, by increasing the number of the heat exchange protrusions 1222, the heat exchange area between the heat exchange piece 122 and the cleaning piece 210 can be increased, so as to achieve both reducing the frictional resistance between the heat exchange protrusions 1222 and the cleaning piece 210 and increasing the heat exchange efficiency between the heat exchange piece 122 and the cleaning piece 210.

[0121] When the heat exchange protrusions 1222 are square protrusions, the corners between the adjacent side walls are chamfered, so as to further reduce the frictional resistance between the heat exchange protrusions 1222 and the cleaning piece 210.

[0122] 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 piece 122 facing the cleaning piece 210, the contact area and the contact depth between the heat exchange piece 122 and the cleaning piece 210 can be increased, so as to improve the heat exchange efficiency between the heat exchange piece 122 and the cleaning piece 210, and further improve the drying efficiency of the cleaning piece 210.

[0123] In some embodiments, the height of the heat exchange protrusions 1222 is 1mm-5mm along the extension direction of the heat exchange protrusions 1222. For example, the height of the heat exchange protrusions 1222 is 1mm, 2mm, 3mm, 4mm or 5mm.

[0124] In addition, the maximum width dimension of the top end surface of the heat exchange protrusions 1222 is 1mm-2.5mm. For example, the maximum width dimension of the top end surface of the heat exchange protrusions 1222 is 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm or 2.5mm. The maximum width dimension of the bottom end surface of the heat exchange protrusions 1222 is 3mm-6mm. For example, the maximum width dimension of the bottom end surface of the heat exchange protrusions 1222 is 3mm, 4mm, 5mm or 6mm. In this way, the strength of the heat exchange protrusions 1222 can be ensured, and the frictional resistance between the heat exchange protrusions 1222 and the cleaning piece 210 can be reduced.

[0125] When the heat exchange piece 122 has multiple heat exchange bosses 1222, the multiple heat exchange bosses 1222 can form at least two heat exchange boss groups, and the at least two heat exchange boss groups can be arranged at intervals along the second direction on the heat exchange piece 122, wherein each row of heat exchange boss groups includes at least two heat exchange bosses 1222 arranged at intervals along the first direction; the two heat exchange bosses 1222 between the adjacent two heat exchange boss groups can be located on the same straight line or staggered, for example, at least two rows of heat exchange boss groups are arranged in a staggered manner along the second direction, or arranged in a straight line along the second direction; for example, as shown in Figure 2 , the cross-sectional shape of the heat exchange boss 1222 is circular, and the at least two rows of heat exchange boss groups are arranged in a staggered manner along the second direction (as shown in Figure 2 ); when the cross-sectional shape of the heat exchange boss 1222 is square, the at least two rows of heat exchange boss groups can be arranged in a staggered manner along the second direction or arranged in a straight line along the second direction (as shown in Figure 11 and Figure 15 ).

[0126] In some embodiments, when the heat exchange piece 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 piece 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 inside the cleaning piece 210.

[0127] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 15 , the air outlet hole 1221 can be arranged between the adjacent two heat exchange bosses 1222, and the contact area and the contact depth with the cleaning piece 210 are increased through the heat exchange boss 1222, so as to improve the drying efficiency of the cleaning piece 210, and the air outlet hole 1221 arranged between the adjacent two heat exchange bosses 1222 can quickly take away the moisture and steam inside and on the surface of the cleaning piece 210 through the flow of air flow, so as to avoid the secondary condensation of the steam, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency and the drying efficiency.

[0128] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 9 , the air outlet hole 1221 can be arranged on the heat exchange boss 1222, so as to save the area of the air outlet hole 1221 arranged on the heat exchange piece 122, and more heat exchange bosses 1222 can be arranged on the heat exchange piece 122, so as to increase the contact area and the contact depth with the cleaning piece 210, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0129] For example, as shown in Figure 9As shown in the figures, the orifice of the air outlet hole 1221 can be arranged on the end face of the heat exchange boss 1222 facing the cleaning member 210, so that the depth of the airflow blown by the air outlet hole 1221 into the cleaning member 210 can be increased, so as to improve the heat exchange efficiency inside the cleaning member 210.

[0130] Another example, the orifice 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 orifice of the air outlet hole 1221 is arranged at the 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), so that the heat exchange efficiency inside the cleaning member 210 can be improved while the risk of the liquid not evaporated on the cleaning member 210 seeping into the air duct 111 through the orifice of the air outlet hole 1221 can be reduced.

[0131] In some embodiments, the drying assembly 120 further comprises a heat collecting member (not shown in the figure), which is arranged on the side of the heat generating body 121 and the heat exchange member 122 away from the cleaning member 210, and is configured to collect the heat generated on the side of the heat generating body 121 away from the cleaning member 210. The heat collecting member defines a heat radiation area in which the cleaning member 210 is located, so that the heat collected by the heat collecting member is directly radiated to the cleaning member 210, thereby reducing the waste of heat and improving the utilization rate of heat, and further improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning member 210.

[0132] For example, the heat collecting member is arranged on the side of the heat exchange upper cover away from the cleaning member 210, and the contour shape of the heat collecting member matches the contour shape of the heat exchange upper cover, so that the heat collecting member can collect the heat released by the heat generating member through the heat exchange upper cover, thereby reducing the loss of heat and improving the utilization rate of heat.

[0133] In some embodiments, the heat collecting member has a heat collecting area recessed toward the side away from the heat generating body, and the heat collecting area faces the cleaning member 210, so that the heat is collected in the heat collecting area, and the heat in 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.

[0137] In summary, the base station and the cleaning system provided by the embodiments of the present application, by setting the heat conduction structure on the heat exchange element of the base station, the heat generated by the heat generating body is transmitted from the side of the heat exchange element close to the heat generating body to the side of the heat exchange element away from the heat generating body through the heat conduction structure, so that the heat exchange element quickly reaches thermal equilibrium, to improve the drying uniformity of the cleaning element and improve the drying efficiency of the cleaning element.
