Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cleaning equipment technology, and in particular to a cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous improvement of technology and people's increasing demands for quality of life, various intelligent equipment has been developed and widely applied in all aspects of people's production and life. For example, the emergence of robot vacuum cleaners can basically replace people in completing household cleaning work, thereby freeing people's hands and improving their quality of life.

[0003] To improve the efficiency of cleaning, robotic vacuum cleaners are usually equipped with a floor mopping function. However, after mopping for a period of time, the brush of the robotic vacuum cleaner will accumulate a lot of dirt. To address this, robotic vacuum cleaners are also equipped with a self-cleaning function to clean the brush while mopping the floor.

[0004] The wastewater and dirt generated by the robotic vacuum cleaner's roller brush during cleaning are collected in a dirt collection tank. While the wastewater is pumped into a wastewater tank for treatment using methods like vacuuming, dirt still accumulates in the collection tank, causing blockages. Furthermore, due to the limited size of the robotic vacuum cleaner, the wastewater tank can only hold a small amount of wastewater. During cleaning, the wastewater tank can easily become full, preventing further cleaning.

[0005] Therefore, in order to ensure that the robot vacuum cleaner can clean properly, users not only need to clean the dirt collection tank of the robot vacuum cleaner frequently, but also need to empty the dirty water tank to free up space in the dirty water tank. The workload of cleaning the robot vacuum cleaner is relatively large, which affects the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a cleaning device to address the issue of users having a large workload when cleaning robotic vacuum cleaners.

[0076] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0077] In the description of this application, it should be understood that if terms such as "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" appear, these terms indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0078] Furthermore, where the terms "first" and "second" appear, these terms are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this application, where the term "multiple" appears, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0079] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0080] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the use of descriptions such as "above" or "below" the second feature indicates that the first and second features are in direct contact or indirect contact via an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. Similarly, "below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0081] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. If an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. If so, the terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0082] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 One embodiment of this application provides a cleaning device including a cleaning apparatus 100 and a base station 200. The cleaning apparatus 100 is used to perform cleaning tasks required by the user, such as sweeping or mopping the floor. Specifically, the cleaning apparatus 100 includes a cleaning component 101, which can be a mop, roller brush, or other component capable of cleaning the floor. Furthermore, the cleaning apparatus 100 has a self-cleaning function, meaning that the cleaning apparatus 100 can clean the cleaning component 101. After cleaning the floor for a period of time, the cleaning body 130 cleans the cleaning component 101, removing stains and allowing the cleaning component 101 to continue cleaning the floor.

[0083] Furthermore, the cleaning device 100 is also equipped with a dirt collection tank 110 and a water storage chamber 120. Wastewater generated during the self-cleaning process of the cleaning device 100 can enter the dirt collection tank 110, thereby collecting the wastewater generated from cleaning the cleaning component 101 and preventing wastewater from flowing onto the ground. The water storage chamber 120 is connected to the dirt collection tank 110. Wastewater in the dirt collection tank 110 can enter the water storage chamber 120 through vacuuming, gravity flow, or water pump extraction, and be stored in the water storage chamber 120. This allows the wastewater generated during multiple cleanings of the cleaning component 101 to be collected in the water storage chamber 120 for centralized treatment.

[0084] The cleaning device 100 can enter or leave the base station 200 along the first direction X. When the cleaning device 100 enters the base station 200, the base station 200 performs operations such as water replenishment, charging, and cleaning on the cleaning device 100. The base station 200 has a sewage chamber 201. The cleaning body 130 has a first sewage outlet 111 communicating with the dirt collection tank 110 and a second sewage outlet 121 communicating with the water storage chamber 120. When the cleaning device 100 is located in the base station 200, both the first sewage outlet 111 and the second sewage outlet 121 are connected to the sewage chamber 201.

[0085] By providing a first drain hole 111 within the sludge collection tank 110, wastewater within the tank can not only be discharged into the wastewater chamber 201 but also directly discharged from the tank through the first drain hole 111, thereby effectively improving the tank's drainage capacity. When the cleaning device 100 enters the base station 200, it controls the device to discharge a large amount of water into the tank, thus flushing the tank and achieving cleaning. Furthermore, the large volume of water can be directly discharged into the wastewater chamber 201 through the first drain hole 111, i.e., into the base station 200. This not only facilitates centralized treatment within the base station 200 but also prevents large amounts of water from accumulating in the tank and overflowing, thus avoiding environmental pollution.

[0086] It should be noted that when it is necessary to control the cleaning device 100 to discharge a large amount of water into the dirt-collecting tank 110, a large amount of water can be discharged through the water outlet structure used by the cleaning device 100 to clean the cleaning component 101. Although the discharged water will pass through the cleaning component 101, it will eventually enter the dirt-collecting tank 110, thereby achieving the effect of cleaning the dirt-collecting tank 110. In some other embodiments, the method of discharging a large amount of water into the dirt-collecting tank 110 can also be achieved by setting a separate water outlet structure.

[0087] During the cleaning process of the large volume of water discharged from the sludge collection tank 110, if the water storage chamber 120 is connected to the sludge collection tank 110 by vacuuming, the sewage in the sludge collection tank 110 will not only be discharged through the first drain hole 111 but will also flow into the outlet chamber. At the same time, the water storage chamber 120 also stores sewage generated by the cleaning device 101. Therefore, when the cleaning device 100 is located at the base station 200, the second drain hole 121 is also connected to the sewage chamber 201, so that the sewage in the water storage chamber 120 can flow into the sewage chamber 201 through the second drain hole 121. This allows the sewage in the water storage chamber 120 to be collected and treated at the base station 200, eliminating the need for the user to clean the water storage chamber 120 separately.

[0088] Furthermore, both the first drain hole 111 and the second drain hole 121 can be opened and closed in a controlled manner. When the cleaning device 100 is located at the base station 200, both the first drain hole 111 and the second drain hole 121 are open and connected to the sewage chamber 201, thereby enabling both the first drain hole 111 and the second drain hole 121 to communicate with the sewage chamber 201 on the base station 200, so as to discharge the sewage in the sludge collection tank 110 and the water storage chamber 120 into the sewage chamber 201. When the cleaning device 100 leaves the base station 200, both the first drain hole 111 and the second drain hole 121 are closed to prevent sewage leakage from the sludge collection tank 110 and the water storage chamber 120 from contaminating the ground when the cleaning device 100 is cleaning the ground.

[0089] When the cleaning device 100 is located at the base station 200, both the first drain hole 111 and the second drain hole 121 are open and connected to the sewage chamber 201. This allows the cleaning device 100 to discharge a large amount of water into the sludge collection tank 110, thereby rinsing the sludge collection tank 110. The first drain hole 111 allows a large amount of water to be directly discharged into the sewage chamber 201 of the base station 200, preventing overflow from the sludge collection tank 110. Furthermore, the sewage in the water storage chamber 120 can also be discharged into the sewage chamber 201 through the second drain hole 121. Therefore, users only need to treat the sewage within the base station 200, eliminating the need for separate cleaning of the sewage tank 202 and separate treatment of the sewage in the water storage chamber 120, effectively reducing the user's workload and improving the user experience.

[0090] In some embodiments of this application, see [reference] Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In order to open and close the first drain hole 111 and the second drain hole 121, the cleaning device 100 includes a cleaning body 130, a first cover 140 and a second cover 150, both of which are movably installed on the cleaning body 130.

[0091] Further, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The first cover 140 has a first position and a second position during its movement. When the first cover 140 is in the first position, the first cover 140 opens the first drain hole 111. When the first cover 140 is in the second position, the first cover 140 closes the first drain hole 111. Thus, by controlling the movement of the first cover 140, the opening and closing of the first drain hole 111 can be controlled.

[0092] See Figure 15 The second cover 150 has a third position and a fourth position during its operation. When the second cover 150 is in the third position, it opens the second drain hole 121; when it is in the fourth position, it closes the second drain hole 121. Thus, by controlling the position of the second cover 150, the opening and closing of the second drain hole 121 is controlled.

[0093] It is understood that in some other embodiments, the opening and closing of the first drain hole 111 and the second drain hole 121 can also be achieved by means of solenoid valves, etc., which are not limited here.

[0094] In some embodiments, the base station 200 is provided with a first pusher 210 and a second pusher 220. The first pusher 210 is used to drive the first cover 140 to move from a second position to a first position, and the second pusher 220 is used to drive the second cover 150 to move from a fourth position to a third position. That is, the first pusher 210 and the second pusher 220 drive the first cover 140 and the second cover 150 to move respectively, so that the first drain hole 111 and the second drain hole 121 can be opened. It is understood that in some other embodiments, only one pusher is used to drive both the first cover 140 and the second cover 150 to move simultaneously.

[0095] In actual use, the cleaning device 100 cannot be too large, otherwise it will be unable to enter many narrow spaces for cleaning. Therefore, by placing the first pusher 210 and the second pusher 220 on the base station 200, the overall size of the cleaning device 100 can be effectively reduced, thus improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0096] Understandably, the movement of the first cover 140 from the first position to the second position can continue to be driven by the first pusher 210, but this requires an additional separation structure between the first pusher 210 and the first cover 140, further increasing the cost or workload for the user. Similarly, the movement of the second cover 150 from the third position to the fourth position can also be driven by the second pusher 220, but this would increase cost or workload.

[0097] Therefore, in some embodiments, see [reference] Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 15 The base station 200 also includes a first elastic element 141 and a second elastic element 151. The first elastic element 141 is disposed between the first cover 140 and the cleaning body 130. During the process of the first cover 140 moving from the second position to the first position, the first elastic element 141 accumulates an elastic force to drive the first cover 140 from the first position to the second position. Thus, when the cleaning device 100 leaves the base station 200, the first pusher 210 separates from the first cover 140, and the first elastic element 141 will return to its elastic deformation, thereby pushing the first cover 140 from the first position to the second position, and closing the first drain hole 111. This achieves automatic closure of the first drain hole 111 after the cleaning device 100 leaves the base station 200, preventing sewage leakage.

[0098] The second elastic element 151 is disposed between the second cover 150 and the cleaning body 130. During the movement of the second cover 150 from the fourth position to the third position, the second elastic element 151 accumulates an elastic force to drive the second cover 150 from the third position to the fourth position. After the cleaning device 100 leaves the base station 200, the second pusher 220 separates from the second cover 150, and the second elastic element 151 returns to its elastic deformation, thereby pushing the second cover 150 from the third position to the fourth position, and closing the second drain hole 121. This achieves automatic closure of the second drain hole 121 after the cleaning device 100 leaves the base station 200, preventing sewage leakage.

[0099] It is understood that in some other embodiments, either the first elastic member 141 or the second elastic member 151 can be selected. When only the first elastic member 141 is selected, the second cover 150 can move from the third position to the fourth position in other ways, such as by its own weight or by setting an additional pushing member. When the second elastic member 151 is selected, the situation of selecting the first elastic member 141 described above can be referred to, and will not be repeated here.

[0100] Specifically, in some embodiments, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 10 and Figure 11 The first cover 140 has a first swing section 142 and a first sealing section 143 arranged sequentially. The first cover 140 is rotatably mounted on the cleaning body 130 about a first rotation axis, which is located between the first swing section 142 and the first sealing section 143 and intersects with the first direction X. When the first cover 140 is in the second position, the first swing section 142 is spaced apart from the cleaning body 130, and the first sealing section 143 blocks the first drain hole 111. Optionally, the cleaning body 130 is provided with a first rotating shaft 131 that can rotate about the first rotation axis, and the first cover 140 is disposed on the first rotating shaft 131.

[0101] When the cleaning device 100 is located at the base station 200, the first pusher 210 is used to drive the first swing segment 142 to approach the cleaning body 130. When the first swing segment 142 approaches the cleaning body 130, the first blocking segment 143 will move away from the cleaning body 130, so that the first blocking segment 143 can no longer block the first drain hole 111, the first drain hole 111 opens, and the first cover 140 moves to the first position.

[0102] Furthermore, the first elastic element 141 is disposed between the first swing segment 142 and the cleaning body 130. When the first pusher 210 drives the first swing segment 142 to approach the cleaning body 130, the first swing segment 142 will compress the first elastic element 141. Afterwards, when the cleaning device 100 leaves the base station 200, after the first pusher 210 separates from the first swing segment 142, the first elastic element 141 will restore its deformation, thereby pushing the first swing segment 142 away from the cleaning body 130, and finally causing the first sealing segment 143 to approach the cleaning body 130, until the first sealing segment 143 blocks the first drain hole 111, and the first cover 140 moves to the second position.

[0103] The second cover 150 has a second swing section 152 and a second sealing section 153 arranged sequentially. The second cover 150 is rotatably mounted on the cleaning body 130 about a second rotation axis, which is located between the second swing section 152 and the second sealing section 153 and intersects the first direction X. When the second cover 150 is in the third position, the second swing section 152 is spaced apart from the cleaning body 130, and the second sealing section 153 blocks the second drain hole 121. The second pusher 220 is used to drive the second swing section 152 closer to the cleaning body 130, thereby causing the second sealing section 153 to move away from the first drain hole 111.

[0104] The second elastic element 151 is disposed between the second swing segment 152 and the cleaning body 130. When the second pusher 220 drives the second swing segment 152 closer to the cleaning body 130, the second swing segment 152 will compress the second elastic element 151. Afterwards, when the cleaning device 100 leaves the base station 200, after the second pusher 220 separates from the second swing segment 152, the second elastic element 151 will restore its deformation, thereby pushing the second swing segment 152 away from the cleaning body 130, and finally causing the second sealing segment 153 to approach the cleaning body 130, until the second sealing segment 153 blocks the second drain hole 121, and the second cover 150 moves to the second position.

[0105] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the first cover 140 and the second cover 150 can also be moved horizontally. The first pusher 210 and the second pusher 220 drive the first cover 140 and the second cover 150 to move horizontally by magnetic attraction, and cooperate with the first elastic member 141 and the second elastic member 151 to realize the movement of the first cover 140 between the first position and the second position.

[0106] In some specific embodiments, the first pushing member 210 is movable on the base station 200 along a second direction Y intersecting the first direction X. When the cleaning device 100 is located on the base station 200, the first pushing member 210 can push the first cover 140 to the first position during its movement. That is, the movable first pushing member 210 drives the first cover 140 to move, so that the first cover 140 can open the first drain hole 111.

[0107] Specifically, specifically Figure 4 In this embodiment, the first direction X is the left-right direction, and the second direction Y is the vertical direction. Furthermore, when the cleaning device 100 is located at the base station 200, the first pushing member 210 is located below the first swing segment 142 of the first cover 140, and the first pushing member 210 is movable in the vertical direction. Therefore, during the upward movement of the first pushing member 210, it will abut against the first swing segment 142, causing the first swing segment 142 to move closer to the cleaning body 130, thereby separating the first sealing segment 143 from the cleaning body 130 and opening the first drain hole 111.

[0108] During the downward movement of the first pusher 210, the first pusher 210 separates from the first swing segment 142. Under the action of the first elastic member 141, the first swing segment 142 moves away from the cleaning body 130, so that the first sealing segment 143 blocks the first drain hole 111.

[0109] In some specific embodiments, the second pushing member 220 is fixed to the base station 200, and during the process of the cleaning device 100 entering the base station 200 along the first direction X, the second pushing member 220 can abut against the second cover 150 and push the second cover 150 to move to the third position. That is, through the movement of the cleaning device 100 relative to the base station 200, the second pushing member 220 can drive the second cover 150 to move, thereby causing the second drain hole 121 to open.

[0110] Specifically, as the cleaning device 100 gradually approaches the base station 200, the second swing section 152 of the second cover 150 gradually approaches the second pusher 220 until the second pusher 220 abuts against the second swing section 152, causing the second swing section 152 to gradually approach the cleaning body 130, and the second blocking section 153 to gradually move away from the cleaning body 130, finally causing the second drain hole 121 to open.

[0111] As the cleaning device 100 gradually moves away from the base station 200, the second pushing member 220 gradually separates from the second swinging section 152. Under the action of the second elastic member 151, the second swinging section 152 gradually moves away from the cleaning body 130, and the second blocking section 153 gradually moves closer to the cleaning body 130 until the second blocking section 153 closes the second drain hole 121.

[0112] In some specific embodiments, since wastewater needs to be collected, the wastewater collection tank 110 is often located at the bottom of the cleaning device 100, which results in the first drain hole 111 also being located at the bottom of the cleaning device 100. To avoid interference between the second drain hole 121 and the wastewater collection tank and cleaning component 101, the second drain hole 121 is located on the circumferential side wall of the cleaning device 100. Furthermore, the first cover 140 is also located at the bottom of the cleaning device 100, and the direction of the first rotation axis is parallel to both the first direction X and the second direction Y. The second cover 150 is also located on the side wall of the cleaning device, and the direction of the second rotation axis is parallel to the direction of the first rotation axis.

[0113] See Figure 4 The base station 200 includes a base station body 230 and a base station base 231. The base station body 230 is mounted on the base station base 231. The first pusher 210 is mounted on the base station base 231. The first pusher 210 remains retracted during the movement of the cleaning device 100 to the base station base 231. The first pusher 210 will only extend when the cleaning device 100 moves to the base station base 231 to drive the first cover 140 to open, thus preventing the first pusher 210 from interfering with the movement of the cleaning device 100.

[0114] Furthermore, by configuring the first pushing member 210 in a controllable driving manner, firstly, it can avoid a hard collision between the first pushing member 210 and the structure at the bottom of the sweeper, which would affect the cleaning device 100's return base station 200. Secondly, the movable first pushing member 210 can close the first drain hole 111 during the self-cleaning of the dirt collection tank 110, allowing the dirt collection tank 110 to accumulate water before draining, thus enabling the water to reach a higher water level and generate higher water pressure within the dirt collection tank 110, resulting in better self-cleaning performance. It is understandable that, during the draining of the dirt collection tank 110, the drain hole 115 can also be kept open, allowing water to continuously drain out.

[0115] The second pushing member 220 is disposed on the side wall of the base station body 230. During the movement of the cleaning device 100 to the base station base 231, the second cover 150 gradually approaches the base station body 230 until it abuts against the second pushing member 220. The second pushing member 220, disposed on the base station body 230, does not interfere with the movement of the cleaning device; therefore, the second pushing member 220 can be fixed. Simultaneously, when the cleaning device 100 is located at the base station 200, the second drain hole 121 can remain open. Wastewater can be continuously discharged during self-cleaning or deep cleaning of the cleaning device 100. The use of a fixed second pushing member 220 simplifies the opening of the second drain hole 121, eliminating the need for a drive mechanism and positioning detection, saving space and cost.

[0116] In other embodiments, the second drain hole 121 and the second cover 150 can be located at the bottom of the cleaning device 100, and the second pusher 220, like the first pusher 210, can be configured to move along the second direction Y. This allows the cleaning device 100, when at the base station 200, to push the second cover 150 to a third position via the movable second pusher 220, thereby opening the second drain hole 121. In this embodiment, the movement of the second pusher 220 and the second cover 150 can be referenced to the first pusher 210 and the first cover 140 as described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0117] In some other embodiments, both the first drain hole 111 and the first cover 140 can be located on the side wall of the cleaning device 100, and the first pusher 210, like the second pusher 220, can be fixedly mounted on the base station 200. That is, as the cleaning device 100 enters the base station 200 along the first direction X, the first pusher 210 can abut against the first cover 140 and push the first cover 140 to the second position, thereby opening the second drain hole 121. In this example, the movement mode of the first pusher 210 and the first cover 140 can refer to the draining mode of the second pusher 220 and the second cover 150 as described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0118] In some embodiments, to reduce the impact on the first pusher 210 during its movement when it comes into contact with the first cover 140, the base station 200 further includes a first shock absorber 211, which is deformable along the second direction Y. When the cleaning device 100 is located in the base station 200, the first shock absorber 211 is located between the first pusher 210 and the first cover 140. During its movement, the first pusher 210 can cause the first shock absorber 211 to deform and abut against the first cover 140. That is, the first pusher 210 does not directly contact the first cover 140, but indirectly contacts the first cover 140 through the first shock absorber 211. This reduces the impact on the first cover 140 through the flexible first shock absorber 211, thereby improving the service life of the first cover 140.

[0119] To reduce the impact of the second pushing member 220 on the second cover 150, the base station 200 also includes a second shock absorber 221, which is sleeved on the end of the second pushing member 220 that abuts against the second cover 150. When the cleaning device 100 moves to the base station 200, the second pushing member 220 indirectly contacts the second cover 150 through the second shock absorber 221, thereby reducing the impact on the second cover 150 and improving its service life.

[0120] In some other embodiments, if the second pusher 220 is also movable along the second direction Y, the first damping member 211 can also be disposed between the second pusher 220 and the second cover 150. During its movement, the second pusher 220 can cause the first damping member 211 to deform and abut against the second cover 150. In still other embodiments, the second damping member 221 can also be sleeved on one end of the first pusher 210, which can also reduce the impact on the first cover 140.

[0121] In some embodiments, the cleaning body 130 further includes a first sealing member 112 and a second sealing member 122. When the first cover 140 closes the first drain hole 111, the first sealing member 112 is sealed between the cleaning body 130 and the first cover 140, thereby sealing the first drain hole 111 and preventing sewage from leaking from the gap between the first drain hole 111 and the first cover 140. The second sealing member 122 is disposed between the cleaning body 130 and the second cover 150, thereby sealing the second drain hole 121 and preventing sewage from leaking from the gap between the second drain hole 121 and the second cover 150.

[0122] Specifically, a portion of the first sealing member 112 is disposed within the first drain hole 111, and another portion extends out of the first drain hole 111, so that when the first cover 140 is in the second position, the first cover 140 can abut against the extended portion of the first sealing member 112, thereby sealing the gap between the cleaning body 130 and the first cover 140.

[0123] The second cover 150 is provided with a sealing part 154. When the second cover 150 moves to the fourth position, the sealing part 154 is inserted into the second drain hole 121, thereby closing the second drain hole 121. When the second cover 150 moves to the third position, the sealing part 154 leaves the drain hole, thereby opening the second drain hole 121. The second sealing member 122 is sleeved on the sealing part 154, so that when the sealing part 154 is inserted into the second drain hole 121, the second sealing member 122 can seal the gap between the second drain hole 121 and the sealing part 154.

[0124] In some embodiments of this application, see [reference] Figure 12 , Figure 13 and Figure 14The base station base 231 includes a base structure 240, a driving component 241, and a transmission component 243. Both the driving component 241 and the transmission component 243 are mounted on the base structure 240. A first pushing component 210 is movably mounted on the base structure 240 along the second direction Y. The driving component 241 drives the first pushing component 210 to move via the transmission component 243. The driving component 241 can be a motor, and the transmission component 243 includes, but is not limited to, worm gears, racks and pinions 212, etc.

[0125] In some embodiments, the transmission member 243 is a gear, which is connected to the driving member 241. The first pushing member 210 is provided with a rack 212 that extends along the second direction Y, and the rack 212 meshes with the gear. When the driving member 241 drives the gear to rotate, the gear will drive the rack 212 to move, thereby causing the first pushing member 210 to move along the second direction Y, and thus pushing the first cover 140 to move.

[0126] In some specific embodiments, the first pusher 210 includes an extended position and a retracted position during the activity. When the cleaning device 100 is located at the base station 200 and the first pusher 210 is in the extended position, the first cover 140 is in the first position. When the first pusher 210 is in the retracted position, the first pusher 210 is positioned away from the movement path of the cleaning device 100 leaving or entering the base station 200.

[0127] Furthermore, the base station 200 also includes a position detection component 244 disposed on the base structure 240. The position detection component 244 is used to detect the position of the first push member 210. When the first push member 210 is in the extended position, the position detection component 244 outputs a first signal. When the first push member 210 is in the retracted position, the position detection component 244 outputs a second signal. The drive member 241 stops driving the first push member 210 to move according to the first signal or the second signal, thereby causing the first push member 210 to stop at the first position or the second position.

[0128] Specifically, the driving component 241 is a motor. When the cleaning device 100 enters the base station 200, the motor receives a signal that the cleaning device 100 has reached its position and begins to operate. The drive gear rotates forward, driving the first pusher 210 upward through the rack 212 to push open the first cover 140 and open the first drain hole 111. When the cleaning device 100 needs to leave the base station 200, the motor receives a corresponding signal, and the drive gear rotates backward, driving the first pusher 210 downward through the rack 212 to move away from the first cover 140, so that the first cover 140 can close the first drain hole 111.

[0129] In some specific embodiments, the positioning detection component 244 includes a first optocoupler switch 245 and a second optocoupler switch 246, which are arranged at intervals along a second direction Y. When the first pusher 210 is in the extended position, at least a portion of the first pusher 210 is located within the first optocoupler switch 245, thereby triggering the first optocoupler switch 245 to send a signal that the first pusher 210 has moved into position to the processing device of the base station 200. The processing device then sends a stop signal to the drive 241, thereby stopping the drive 241 from continuing to operate, so that the first pusher 210 remains in the extended position, and the first drain hole 111 can remain open until the draining is completed and the cleaning device 100 needs to leave the base station 200.

[0130] When the first pusher 210 is in the retracted position, at least a portion of the first pusher 210 is located within the second optocoupler switch 246. This triggers the second optocoupler switch 246, thereby sending a signal to the processing device of the base station 200 that the first pusher 210 has moved into position. The processing device then sends a stop signal to the drive unit 241, thereby stopping the drive unit 241 from continuing to operate, thus keeping the first pusher 210 in the retracted position and preventing the first pusher 210 from affecting the movement of the cleaning device 100.

[0131] In some embodiments, one of the base structure 240 and the first pusher 210 is provided with a limiting groove 248 extending longitudinally in the second direction Y, and the other is provided with a limiting rib 247. The limiting rib 247 is provided in the limiting groove 248 so that the first pusher 210 can move stably along the second direction Y through the cooperation of the limiting rib 247 and the limiting groove 248, ensuring that the first pusher 210 can accurately push the first cover 140 to move.

[0132] In some embodiments of this application, after the cleaning device 100 moves to the base station 200, the sludge collection tank 110 and the water storage chamber 120 are both located above the sewage chamber 201 in the direction of gravity, so that the sewage in the sludge collection tank 110 and the water storage chamber 120 can be discharged into the sewage chamber 201 through the first drain hole 111 and the second drain hole 121 respectively under the action of gravity.

[0133] Further, see Figure 4The base structure 240 of the base station 200 is provided with a sewage tank 202, and a sewage cavity 201 is formed inside the sewage tank 202. The top opening 203 of the sewage tank 202 is connected to the sewage cavity 201. When the cleaning device 100 is in the cleaning position, the first drain hole 111 and the second drain hole 121 are both located above the opening 203 of the sewage tank 202 in the direction of gravity. This allows the sewage discharged from the first drain hole 111 on the circumferential side wall of the cleaning device 100 and the second drain hole 121 at the bottom of the cleaning device 100 to fall into the sewage cavity 201 through the opening 203 of the sewage tank 202.

[0134] In some embodiments of this application, for centralized treatment of repeatedly collected sewage, the base station 200 further includes a black water tank and a suction pipe 204. The black water tank is connected to a sewage tank 202 via the suction pipe 204, allowing sewage in the sewage tank 202 to be drawn into the black water tank via the suction pipe 204. Each time the cleaning device 100 returns to the base station 200, sewage flows into the sewage tank 202 through the drain hole and is finally drawn into the black water tank for temporary storage, so that users can handle it uniformly. Optionally, the base station 200 also includes a vacuuming device for evacuating the black water tank, so that sewage in the sewage tank 202 is drawn into the black water tank under air pressure.

[0135] Furthermore, the base structure 240 also includes multiple filter ribs 205. All filter ribs 205 protrude from the bottom wall of the sewage tank 202 and are spaced apart circumferentially around the suction pipe 204. In this way, the sewage in the sewage tank 202 will first pass through multiple filter ribs 205 and then be pumped into the black water tank by the suction pipe 204. During the process of the sewage passing through multiple filter ribs 205, larger impurities in the sewage will be intercepted by the filter ribs 205, preventing impurities from entering the suction pipe 204 and clogging it.

[0136] In some specific embodiments, the base structure 240 includes a base body 250 and a sewage tray 251. The sewage tray 251 is detachably installed on the base station base 231, and a sewage trough 202 is provided on the sewage tray 251 so that the user can remove the sewage tray 251 from the base body 250 separately, thereby facilitating the cleaning of the sewage trough 202.

[0137] The base station body 230 is mounted on the base body 250 to support it. The base body 250 also houses the aforementioned drive component 241, transmission component 243, first push component 210, and first shock absorber 211. The wastewater tray 251 has a clearance hole 252. When the wastewater tray 251 is mounted on the base body 250, the first shock absorber 211 is located within the clearance hole 252, or the clearance hole 252 is located along the movement path of the first push component 210 driving the first shock absorber 211. In other words, the clearance hole 252 ensures the normal movement of the first push component 210 and the first shock absorber 211.

[0138] Furthermore, the base body 250 also includes a base bracket 253 and a motor bracket 254. The motor bracket 254 is detachably mounted on the base bracket 253. The driving component 241, the transmission component 243, the first pushing component 210, and the first shock absorber 211 are all mounted on the motor bracket 254, so that the driving component 241, the transmission component 243, the first pushing component 210, the first shock absorber 211, and the motor bracket 254 form a driving module 260. The separately detachable driving module 260 facilitates the maintenance and replacement of the driving module 260.

[0139] Furthermore, the base body 250 also includes a sealing cover 255. The base bracket 253 has mounting holes 256. The drive module 260 is installed in the mounting holes 256 using bolts, clips, or other means. The sealing cover 255 is detachably installed over the mounting holes 256 to prevent dust or debris from entering the mounting holes 256 and affecting the operation of the drive module 260 when it is installed. The inner wall of the mounting hole 256 also has wiring holes, through which the wires connected to the drive component 241 are connected to the control device of the base station 200.

[0140] In some embodiments of this application, the cleaning device 100 is a robotic vacuum cleaner, and the base station 200 also includes a charging device. After the robotic vacuum cleaner enters the base station 200, the charging structure on the robotic vacuum cleaner connects with the charging device on the base station 200 to form a charging circuit and begin charging. The robotic vacuum cleaner can also determine that it has reached its designated position on the base station 200 by confirming the connection of the charging circuit, and thus stop moving. In other embodiments, the cleaning device 100 can also be a floor scrubber or other cleaning device with a self-cleaning function.

[0141] In some embodiments, see Figure 15 , Figure 16 , Figure 17 and Figure 18The cleaning device 100 includes a clean water tank and a wastewater tank. The clean water tank stores the cleaning solution, which is sprayed onto the cleaning component 101 by gravity or a water pump. The wastewater tank has a water storage chamber 120 and is connected to a sludge collection tank 110 via a drain outlet 115. Wastewater in the sludge collection tank 110 can be discharged into the wastewater tank through the drain outlet 115 for centralized storage, facilitating regular cleaning by the user.

[0142] Furthermore, to allow the wastewater in the collection tank 110 to enter the wastewater tank, the cleaning device 100 also includes a vacuuming component and a drain pipe 114. The vacuuming component is used to create a vacuum in the wastewater chamber 201 within the wastewater tank, and the wastewater tank is connected to the collection tank 110 via the drain pipe 114. Thus, under the influence of the internal vacuum, the wastewater in the collection tank 110 is drawn into the wastewater tank through the drain port 115. In other embodiments, a water pump can also be used to pump the wastewater from the collection tank 110 into the wastewater tank.

[0143] In some embodiments, in order to ensure that the wastewater in the collection tank 110 is drawn away by the drain pipe 114 or flows out from the second drain hole 121 as much as possible, when the cleaning device 100 is located at the base station 200, the bottom wall of the collection tank 110 is inclined relative to the horizontal direction. By inclining the bottom wall, the wastewater in the collection tank 110 will flow into the lowest point of the bottom wall under the action of gravity. The first drain hole 111 is located at the lowest point of the bottom wall of the collection tank 110 in the direction of gravity, so that the wastewater in the collection tank 110 is guided to the first drain hole 111 under the action of the bottom wall of the collection tank 110, and finally flows out from the first drain hole 111. Furthermore, a drain outlet 115 is provided at the end of the drain pipe 114 away from the sewage tank. The drain outlet 115 is located close to the second drain hole 121 so that the drain outlet 115 can also be close to the lowest point of the bottom wall of the sludge collection tank 110 in the direction of gravity. This is so that when the second drain hole 121 is closed, the sewage in the sludge collection tank 110 can be drawn into the sewage tank by the drain outlet 115 as much as possible.

[0144] Furthermore, the bottom wall of the sewage chamber 201 is inclined relative to the direction of gravity, and the first drain hole 111 is located at the lowest point of the bottom of the sewage chamber 201 in the direction of gravity. Thus, the inclined bottom wall guides the interior of the sewage chamber 201, thereby collecting the sewage in the sewage chamber 201 to the drain hole, and finally discharging it through the first drain hole 111.

[0145] In some specific embodiments, the cleaning body further includes a filter element 113, which is disposed within the dirt collection tank 110 and located at the lowest point of the bottom wall in the direction of gravity. A drain outlet 115 and a second drain hole 121 are located within the filter element 113. Wastewater in the dirt collection tank 110 passes through the filter element 113 and enters at least one of the drain outlet 115 and the second drain hole 121. In this way, the filter element 113 filters larger debris from the dirt collection tank 110, preventing debris from clogging the drain outlet 115 or the second drain hole 121. Simultaneously, it retains debris within the dirt collection tank 110, allowing the user to clean the debris along with the dirt when cleaning the tank 110.

[0146] In some embodiments of this application, the cleaning device 100 includes a cleaning bracket 160, a water channel plate 161, and a scraper 162. Both the scraper 162 and the water channel plate 161 are mounted on the cleaning bracket 160. When in use, the water channel plate 161, the scraper 162, and the dirt collection tank 110 are arranged sequentially along the direction of gravity. When the cleaning component 101 is in the cleaning position, it can rotate around its own axis. The water channel plate 161 sprays cleaning liquid onto the circumferential sidewall of the cleaning component 101. The scraper 162 contacts the circumferential sidewall of the cleaning component 101. A drain pipe 114 is formed on the cleaning bracket 160, with one end extending into the filter element 113 and having a drain outlet 115.

[0147] Specifically, the cleaning component 101 is a roller with a mop on its surface. The water channel plate 161 is connected to the clean water tank and sprays cleaning liquid onto the surface of the roller. Then the roller rotates, and during the rotation, the surface of the roller continuously contacts the scraper plate 162. The scraper plate 162 rubs the mop on the surface of the roller, and with the help of the cleaning liquid, the dirt on the mop is washed away. The resulting wastewater falls into the dirt collection tank 110 and is finally pumped into the wastewater tank by the drain port 115.

[0148] The above-mentioned cleaning equipment has at least the following advantages:

[0149] When the cleaning device 100 is located at the base station 200, both the first drain hole 111 and the second drain hole 121 are open and connected to the sewage chamber 201. This allows the cleaning device 100 to discharge a large amount of water into the sludge collection tank 110, thereby flushing the sludge collection tank 110. The first drain hole 111 allows a large amount of water to be directly discharged into the sewage chamber 201 of the base station 200, preventing overflow from the sludge collection tank 110. Furthermore, the sewage in the water storage chamber 120 can also be discharged into the sewage chamber 201 through the second drain hole 121. Therefore, users only need to treat the sewage within the base station 200; there is no need to separately clean the sewage tank 202 or separately treat the sewage in the water storage chamber 120, effectively reducing the user's workload and improving the user experience.
