Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] The cleaning device may include a base station and a vacuuming assembly, which is detachably connected to the base station. The vacuuming assembly has a dust cup with an openable end cap. When in operation, the vacuuming assembly sucks debris from the surface to be cleaned into the dust cup. The base station, when connected to the vacuuming assembly, can open the end cap of the dust cup and collect the debris inside.

[0003] In related technologies, the base station can generate suction force through a suction component to open the end cap of the dust cup, and then collect debris inside the dust cup using suction. After the debris inside the dust cup is cleaned, the end cap can automatically close due to the reset component of a torsion spring.

[0004] However, in the above structure, when the weight of the debris collected in the dust cup is large, it will cause the debris to squeeze open the end cap during the operation of the dust collection component, resulting in the debris being poured out of the dust cup. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides a dust cup structure, a cleaning device, and a cleaning system to solve the problem that the end cap of the dust cup is pressed open during the operation of the dust collection component in the related art.

[0006] Firstly, the dust cup structure of this application includes:

[0007] The dust cup body has a dust collection chamber.

[0008] The dust cup cover assembly includes a cover body and a rotating cover plate disposed on the cover body. The cover body covers the dust cup body, and the rotating cover plate is configured to rotate relative to the cover body to open or close the dust collection chamber.

[0009] A locking assembly is disposed on the cover. The locking assembly is configured to fold to unlock the rotating cover under the action of the base station, so that the rotating cover opens the dust collection chamber; and to unfold and lock the rotating cover when the rotating cover closes the dust collection chamber, so that the rotating cover is fixed to the cover.

[0010] In this way, the locking assembly unfolds and abuts against the rotating cover to fix the rotating cover to the cover body, thereby preventing the rotating cover from opening automatically under the pressure of debris. When docking with a base station, the locking assembly can be folded by the base station to release the restriction on the rotating cover, allowing the rotating cover to rotate relative to the cover body and thus open the dust collection chamber.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the dust cup structure provided in this application includes a locking component comprising:

[0012] The first locking element is slidably mounted on the cover.

[0013] The second locking element has one end rotatably connected to the cover body, and the other end is hinged to the first locking element.

[0014] The first locking element is configured to move toward the second locking element and fold with the second locking element to disengage from the rotating cover, thereby unlocking the rotating cover; when the rotating cover closes the dust collection chamber, it moves toward the rotating cover and unfolds with the second locking element to lock the rotating cover.

[0015] Thus, when a force is applied at the hinge of the first and second locking components, they fold together, causing the first locking component to move away from the rotating cover, thereby unlocking the rotating cover. Unfolding the folded first and second locking components allows the first locking component to abut against the rotating cover, thus locking the rotating cover. The overall structure is simple and easy for users to operate.

[0016] In one possible implementation, the dust cup structure provided in this application further includes a first pivot, and the other end of the second locking member is hinged to the first locking member via the first pivot.

[0017] Thus, the first locking element and the second locking element are hinged through the first pivot, allowing the first locking element and the second locking element to fold or unfold relative to each other.

[0018] In one possible implementation, the dust cup structure provided in this application further includes at least one first elastic member, which connects the first locking member and the cover.

[0019] The first elastic element is configured to drive the first locking element to keep the rotating cover locked when the rotating cover closes the dust collection chamber.

[0020] Thus, by setting the first elastic element, when the dust cup structure is separated from the base station, its elastic force can be used to restore the first and second locking elements from the folded state to the unfolded state, and drive the first locking element to keep the rotating cover locked.

[0021] In one possible implementation, the dust cup structure provided in this application has a clearance notch on the first locking member, and a portion of the second locking member is located within the clearance notch.

[0022] Thus, by placing part of the second locking element within the clearance notch, space can be better utilized, making the overall structure of the locking assembly more compact.

[0023] In one possible implementation, the dust cup structure provided in this application includes a cover comprising:

[0024] The bottom cover is placed on the dust cup body;

[0025] The bottom cover plate is placed on the bottom cover and together with the bottom cover forms a receiving cavity. The bottom cover plate is provided with a dust outlet that communicates with the dust collection cavity. The rotating cover plate is rotatably connected to the bottom cover and is used to open or close the dust outlet.

[0026] Thus, the receiving cavity can be used to install the first elastic member, and part of the first locking member and part of the second locking member can be located in the receiving cavity, so that the first locking member and the second locking member have a large range of motion when folding, avoiding interference.

[0027] In one possible implementation, the dust cup structure provided in this application has a first mounting port and a second mounting port on the bottom cover plate. The first mounting port is connected to the dust outlet through the second mounting port. A first locking member and part of the second locking member are embedded in the second mounting port, and the remaining part of the second locking member is embedded in the first mounting port.

[0028] Thus, the first and second locking components can be mounted on the bottom cover plate through the first and second mounting ports. The first and second mounting ports are sequentially connected to the dust outlet to ensure that the first locking component can abut against the rotating cover plate and can be hinged to the second locking component.

[0029] In one possible implementation, the dust cup structure provided in this application has at least one slide rail in the second mounting port, the extension direction of the slide rail is consistent with the sliding direction of the first locking member, and at least one of the opposite sides of the first locking member is provided with a sliding member.

[0030] The slider is mounted on the slide rail and moves relative to the slide rail.

[0031] Thus, as the first locking element rotates toward the second locking element, the end of the first locking element away from the second locking element can slide relative to the slide rail on the bottom cover plate through the sliding element and move away from the rotating cover plate, thereby releasing the restriction on the rotating cover plate.

[0032] In one possible implementation, the dust cup structure provided in this application also includes a seal;

[0033] The bottom cover is provided with a dust discharge channel, and the dust collection chamber is connected to the dust outlet through the dust discharge channel. A sealing element is provided between the dust discharge channel and the rotating cover plate to seal the gap between the dust discharge channel and the rotating cover plate when the rotating cover plate closes the dust outlet.

[0034] Thus, after the rotating cover opens the dust outlet, the debris in the dust collection chamber of the dust cup body can be discharged sequentially through the dust outlet channel and the dust outlet. The sealing element is used to close the gap between the dust outlet channel and the rotating cover, which can prevent debris in the dust collection chamber from entering the receiving cavity formed by the bottom cover and the bottom cover plate through this gap.

[0035] In one possible implementation, the dust cup structure provided in this application further includes a second rotating shaft and a second elastic member in the dust cup cover assembly. The second rotating shaft is disposed on the cover body, and the second elastic member and the rotating cover plate are sleeved on the second rotating shaft. One end of the rotating cover plate facing away from the second rotating shaft is used to connect with the locking assembly.

[0036] The second elastic element abuts against the cover plate, and the second elastic element drives the rotating cover plate to rotate relative to the cover body so that the rotating cover plate closes the dust collection chamber.

[0037] Thus, the second elastic element is mainly used to close the dust collection chamber of the dust cup body by relying on its elastic force. Under the action of the rotating cover suction assembly, it can rotate relative to the dust cup body, causing the second elastic element to deform and thus open the dust collection chamber. After the suction assembly is closed, the rotating cover can close the dust collection chamber under the action of the second elastic element.

[0038] Secondly, the cleaning device provided in this application includes a device body and the dust cup structure described above disposed on the device body.

[0039] Thirdly, the cleaning system provided in this application includes a base station and the cleaning device as described above, wherein the base station is used to collect debris within the dust cup structure of the cleaning device.

[0040] In this way, after the base station is connected to the cleaning device, the base station can collect the debris inside the dust cup structure of the cleaning device.

[0041] In one possible implementation, the cleaning system provided in this application has an unlocking component on the base station, which is configured to abut against the locking component of the cleaning device to fold the locking component of the cleaning device.

[0042] Thus, when the base station and the cleaning device are connected, the unlocking component can abut against the locking component of the dust cup structure of the cleaning device, causing the locking component to fold and thereby releasing the lock on the rotating cover of the dust cup structure, so that debris inside the dust cup structure can be collected by the base station.

[0043] In addition to the technical problems solved by the embodiments of this application, the technical features constituting the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects brought about by the technical features of these technical solutions described above, other technical problems that the cleaning equipment provided by this application can solve, other technical features included in the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects brought about by these technical features will be further described in detail in the specific embodiments.

[0058] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawings, the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar components or components having the same or similar functions throughout. The described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of this application. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. The embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0059] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or the internal communication between two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0060] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on 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.

[0061] The terms "first," "second," and "third" (if any) in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a particular order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application described herein can be implemented, for example, in orders other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0062] Furthermore, the terms “comprising” and “having”, and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, system, product, or display that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to such process, method, product, or display.

[0063] In related technologies, the base station can generate suction force through a suction component to open the end cap of the dust cup, and then collect debris inside the dust cup using suction force. After the debris inside the dust cup is cleaned, the end cap can automatically close due to the reset component of a torsion spring.

[0064] However, in the above structure, when the weight of the debris collected in the dust cup is large, the debris may squeeze the end cap open during the operation of the vacuuming component, causing the debris to pour out of the dust cup and affecting the user experience.

[0065] In view of the above problems, this application provides a dust cup structure, a cleaning device, and a cleaning system. The dust cup structure includes a dust cup body, a dust cup cover assembly, and a locking assembly. The dust cup body has a dust collection chamber. The dust cup cover assembly includes a cover and a rotating cover plate disposed on the cover. The cover covers the dust cup body, and the rotating cover plate is configured to rotate relative to the cover to open or close the dust collection chamber. The locking assembly is disposed on the cover and is capable of unfolding and folding. When unfolded, the locking assembly abuts against the rotating cover plate to fix the rotating cover plate to the cover, thereby preventing the rotating cover plate from automatically opening under pressure from debris. When interfacing with a base station, the locking assembly can be folded via the base station to release the restriction on the rotating cover plate, allowing the rotating cover plate to rotate relative to the cover, thereby opening the dust collection chamber.

[0066] The specific implementation methods of the base station, cleaning device, and cleaning system provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0067] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the dust cup structure 10 provided in this application embodiment includes a dust cup body 100, a dust cup cover assembly 200, and a locking assembly 300.

[0068] The dust cup body 100 has a dust collection chamber 110, and the dust cup cover assembly 200 includes a cover body 210 and a rotating cover plate 220 disposed on the cover body 210. The cover body 210 covers the dust cup body 100, and the rotating cover plate 220 is configured to rotate relative to the cover body 210 to open or close the dust collection chamber 110.

[0069] The locking component 300 is disposed on the cover 210. The locking component 300 is configured to fold to unlock the rotating cover 220 under the action of the base station 20, so that the rotating cover 220 opens the dust collection chamber 110; and to unfold and lock the rotating cover 220 when the rotating cover 220 closes the dust collection chamber 110, so that the rotating cover 220 is fixed on the cover 210.

[0070] It is understood that the dust cup structure 10 provided in this application embodiment can be used in a cleaning device, which can be a vacuum cleaner. The cleaning device may have a suction component that communicates with the dust collection chamber 110. When the cleaning device is working, the suction component can generate suction force to suck debris from the surface to be cleaned into the dust collection chamber 110 of the dust cup body 100. Furthermore, the cleaning device can be docked with the base station 20, and after opening the rotating cover 220 of the dust cup cover assembly 200, debris in the dust collection chamber 110 can be collected through the base station 20.

[0071] Among them, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a locking assembly 300 is provided on the cover 210. When the rotating cover 220 closes the dust collection chamber 110, the locking assembly 300 is in an unfolded state and abuts against the rotating cover 220 to restrict the rotation of the rotating cover 220 relative to the cover 210, thereby fixing the rotating cover 220 to the cover 210. This can prevent the rotating cover 220 from automatically opening due to the pressure of the debris in the dust collection chamber 110 when the debris is heavy, thus improving the user experience.

[0072] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, after the cleaning device is connected to the base station 20, the locking component 300 can be folded under the action of the unlocking component 201 on the base station 20 and separated from the rotating cover 220 to release the restriction on the rotating cover 220. The rotating cover 220 can then rotate relative to the cover 210 to open the dust collection chamber 110 and connect the dust collection chamber 110 to the base station 20, so that the debris in the dust collection chamber 110 can be collected through the base station 20.

[0073] Furthermore, after the cleaning device is separated from the base station 20, the locking component 300 can be restored from the folded state to the unfolded state and abut against the rotating cover 220, thereby restricting the rotation of the rotating cover 220.

[0074] Understandably, after the cleaning device is separated from the base station 20, when it is necessary to further clean the dust collection chamber 110 of the dust cup body 100, the user can apply force to the locking component 300 with their fingers or by using a tool to make the locking component 300 folded.

[0075] The dust cup structure 10 provided in this embodiment has a locking component 300 on the cover 210. The locking component 300 unfolds and abuts against the rotating cover 220 to fix the rotating cover 220 on the cover 210, thereby preventing the rotating cover 220 from opening automatically due to pressure from debris. When docking with the base station 20, the locking component 300 can be folded through the base station 20 to release the restriction on the rotating cover 220, allowing the rotating cover 220 to rotate relative to the cover 210, thereby opening the dust collection chamber 110.

[0076] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the locking assembly 300 includes a first locking member 310 and a second locking member 320. The first locking member 310 is slidably disposed on the cover 210, one end of the second locking member 320 is rotatably connected to the cover 210, and the other end of the second locking member 320 is hinged to the first locking member 310.

[0077] The first locking member 310 is configured to move toward the second locking member 320 and fold with the second locking member 320 to disengage from the rotating cover 220, thereby unlocking the rotating cover 220; when the rotating cover 220 closes the dust collection chamber 110, it moves toward the rotating cover 220 and unfolds with the second locking member 320 to lock the rotating cover 220.

[0078] One end of the first locking member 310 is used to hinge with the second locking member 320, and the other end is used to abut against the rotating cover plate 220 to restrict the movement of the rotating cover plate 220.

[0079] Reference Figure 7 As shown, when the dust cup structure 10 is docked with the base station 20, the unlocking member 201 on the base station 20 can abut against the hinge of the first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320, so that the second locking member 320 rotates relative to the cover 210 toward the first locking member 310, and the first locking member 310 rotates toward the second locking member 320, so that the first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320 fold together. At this time, the other end of the first locking member 310 can slide away from the rotating cover plate 220 on the cover 210, thereby releasing the restriction on the rotating cover plate 220.

[0080] When the rotating cover 220 closes the dust collection chamber 110, the first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320, which are folded together, can be gradually unfolded so that the other end of the first locking member 310 can slide on the cover 210 toward the rotating cover 220 and abut against the rotating cover 220, thereby locking the rotating cover 220.

[0081] In this way, when a force is applied to the hinge of the first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320, they can fold together, causing the first locking member 310 to move away from the rotating cover 220, thereby unlocking the rotating cover 220. Unfolding the folded first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320 allows the first locking member 310 to abut against the rotating cover 220, thereby locking the rotating cover 220. The overall structure is simple and easy for users to operate.

[0082] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the rotating cover plate 220 has a locking part 221 on the side facing the first locking member 310, and the first locking member 310 has a locking notch 313 on the side facing the rotating cover plate 220. The locking part 221 can be inserted into the locking notch 313, thereby locking the rotating cover plate 220 by the first locking member 310. This structure makes the locking state of the two more stable.

[0083] Reference Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the locking assembly 300 further includes a first pivot 330, and the other end of the second locking member 320 is hinged to the first locking member 310 via the first pivot 330.

[0084] In this way, the first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320 are hinged through the first pivot 330, so that the first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320 can be folded or unfolded.

[0085] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the locking assembly 300 further includes at least one first elastic element 340, which connects the first locking element 310 and the cover 210.

[0086] The first elastic element 340 is configured to drive the first locking element 310 to keep the rotating cover 220 locked when the rotating cover 220 closes the dust collection chamber 110.

[0087] When the rotating cover 220 closes the dust collection chamber 110, the first elastic member 340 can drive the first locking member 310 to abut against the rotating cover 220 by relying on its own elastic force, so that the first locking member 310 keeps the rotating cover 220 locked.

[0088] Furthermore, when it is necessary to release the first locking member 310 from locking the rotating cover 220, a force can be applied to the position of the first rotating shaft 330 to fold the first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320 together. During this movement, the first locking member 310 will deform the first elastic member 340. After the applied force is removed, the first elastic member 340 will return to its original state by elastic force and drive the first locking member 310 to move, so that the first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320 unfold each other, thereby allowing the first locking member 310 to abut against the rotating cover 220.

[0089] Thus, by setting the first elastic element 340, when the dust cup structure 10 is separated from the base station 20, its elastic force can be used to restore the first locking element 310 and the second locking element 320 from the folded state to the unfolded state, and drive the first locking element 310 to keep the rotating cover plate 220 locked.

[0090] For example, the first elastic element 340 can be a spring, a torsion spring, etc.

[0091] Among them, reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the first locking member 310 is provided with a connecting part 314, which is used to connect with the first elastic member 340.

[0092] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the first locking member 310 has a clearance notch 311, and a portion of the second locking member 320 is located within the clearance notch 311.

[0093] The first rotating shaft 330 is inserted into the first locking member 310, a portion of the first rotating shaft 330 is located within the clearance notch 311, a portion of the second locking member 320 is rotatably connected to a portion of the first rotating shaft 330, and a portion of the second locking member 320 is located within the clearance notch 311.

[0094] In this way, by placing part of the second locking element 320 within the clearance notch 311, space can be better utilized, making the overall structure of the locking assembly 300 more compact.

[0095] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the cover 210 includes a bottom cover 211 and a bottom cover plate 212.

[0096] The bottom cover 211 is placed on the dust cup body 100, and the bottom cover plate 212 is placed on the bottom cover 211, together forming a receiving cavity 213. The bottom cover plate 212 is provided with a dust outlet 2121 that communicates with the dust collection cavity 110. The rotating cover plate 220 is rotatably connected to the bottom cover 211 and is used to open or close the dust outlet 2121.

[0097] The bottom cover plate 212 and the bottom cover 211 together form a receiving cavity 213. The first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320 can be disposed on the bottom cover plate 212. The receiving cavity 213 can be used to install the first elastic member 340. Part of the first locking member 310 and part of the second locking member 320 can be located in the receiving cavity 213 so that the first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320 have a large movement space when folding, avoiding interference.

[0098] After the rotating cover 220 opens the dust outlet 2121, the debris in the dust collection chamber 110 of the dust cup body 100 can be discharged through the dust outlet 2121.

[0099] Reference Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the bottom cover plate 212 is provided with a first mounting port 2122 and a second mounting port 2123. The first mounting port 2122 is connected to the dust outlet 2121 through the second mounting port 2123. The first locking member 310 and part of the second locking member 320 are embedded in the second mounting port 2123, and the remaining part of the second locking member 320 is embedded in the first mounting port 2122.

[0100] In this way, the first locking element 310 and the second locking element 320 can be mounted on the bottom cover plate 212 through the first mounting port 2122 and the second mounting port 2123. The first mounting port 2122 and the second mounting port 2123 are sequentially connected to the dust outlet 2121 to ensure that the first locking element 310 can abut against the rotating cover plate 220 and that the first locking element 310 can be hinged to the second locking element 320.

[0101] The first mounting port 2122 and the second mounting port 2123 are both connected to the receiving cavity 213, so that the first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320 can be folded toward the receiving cavity 213, so that they have a large movement space and avoid interference.

[0102] Reference Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, at least one slide rail 2124 is provided in the second mounting port 2123, the extension direction of the slide rail 2124 is consistent with the sliding direction of the first locking member 310, and at least one of the opposite sides of the first locking member 310 is provided with a sliding member 312.

[0103] The slider 312 is correspondingly disposed on the slide rail 2124 and moves relative to the slide rail 2124.

[0104] Thus, as the first locking member 310 rotates toward the second locking member 320, the end of the first locking member 310 away from the second locking member 320 can slide relative to the slide rail 2124 on the bottom cover plate 212 through the sliding member 312 and move away from the rotating cover plate 220, thereby releasing the restriction on the rotating cover plate 220.

[0105] Specifically, refer to Figure 5 As shown, slide rails 2124 are provided on both sides of the second mounting port 2123, and sliding members 312 are provided on both sides of the first locking member 310. The two sliding members 312 are correspondingly arranged with the two slide rails 2124 to ensure the stability of the movement of the first locking member 310.

[0106] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the dust cup structure 10 provided in this application also includes a sealing element 230.

[0107] The bottom cover 211 is provided with a dust outlet channel 2111. The dust collection chamber 110 is connected to the dust outlet 2121 through the dust outlet channel 2111. The sealing element 230 is provided between the dust outlet channel 2111 and the rotating cover plate 220 so as to close the gap between the dust outlet channel 2111 and the rotating cover plate 220 when the rotating cover plate 220 closes the dust outlet 2121.

[0108] Thus, after the rotating cover 220 opens the dust outlet 2121, the debris in the dust collection chamber 110 of the dust cup body 100 can be discharged sequentially through the dust outlet channel 2111 and the dust outlet 2121. The sealing element 230 is used to close the gap between the dust outlet channel 2111 and the rotating cover 220, which can prevent the debris in the dust collection chamber 110 from entering the receiving cavity 213 formed by the bottom cover 211 and the bottom cover plate 212 through the gap.

[0109] For example, the seal 230 can be disposed on the side of the rotating cover 220 facing the dust outlet channel 2111. The seal 230 can be a silicone part, a rubber part, or other sealing material with a certain degree of elasticity, and this application embodiment does not specifically limit it.

[0110] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the dust cup cover assembly 200 further includes a second rotating shaft 240 and a second elastic member 250. The second rotating shaft 240 is disposed on the cover body 210, and the second elastic member 250 and the rotating cover plate 220 are sleeved on the second rotating shaft 240. One end of the rotating cover plate 220 facing away from the second rotating shaft 240 is used to connect with the locking assembly 300.

[0111] The second elastic element 250 abuts against the cover plate, and the second elastic element 250 drives the rotating cover plate 220 to rotate relative to the cover body 210 so that the rotating cover plate 220 closes the dust collection chamber 110.

[0112] The second elastic element 250 is mainly used to close the dust collection chamber 110 of the dust cup body 100 by relying on its elastic force.

[0113] Understandably, referring to Figure 7 As shown, when the dust cup structure 10 is docked with the base station 20, the unlocking component 201 of the base station 20 abuts against the locking component 300, and the locking component 300 is in a folded state to release the lock on the rotating cover 220. At this time, under the action of the suction component of the base station 20 or the suction component of the cleaning device, the rotating cover 220 can rotate relative to the dust cup body 100, and the second elastic member 250 deforms, thereby opening the dust collection chamber 110.

[0114] After the suction assembly is closed, the rotating cover 220 can rotate relative to the dust cup body 100 under the action of the second elastic member 250, thereby sealing the dust collection chamber 110. Then, the dust cup structure 10 is separated from the base station 20, and the first locking member 310 and the second locking member 320 in the locking assembly 300 unfold each other under the action of the first elastic member 340, so as to lock the rotating cover 220 by the first locking member 310, thereby fixing the rotating cover 220 to the cover body 210.

[0115] This design prevents the rotating cover 220 from opening automatically due to pressure from debris, ensuring greater stability. Furthermore, it simplifies the unlocking and unlocking process, making it more convenient for users.

[0116] For example, the second elastic element 250 can be a torsion spring.

[0117] The cleaning device provided in this application includes a device body and a dust cup structure 10 as described above disposed on the device body.

[0118] Since the cleaning device adopts the dust cup structure 10 in the above embodiment, it also has the advantages and benefits brought by the dust cup structure 10, which will not be elaborated further here.

[0119] Reference Figure 7As shown, the cleaning system provided in this application includes a base station 20 and the cleaning device as described above. The base station 20 is used to collect debris in the dust cup structure 10 of the cleaning device.

[0120] When the base station 20 is connected to the cleaning device, the base station 20 can collect debris from the dust cup structure 10 of the cleaning device.

[0121] Reference Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the base station 20 is provided with an unlocking member 201, which is configured to abut against the locking component 300 of the cleaning device to fold the locking component 300 of the cleaning device.

[0122] In this way, when the base station 20 is connected to the cleaning device, the unlocking component 201 can abut against the locking component 300 of the dust cup structure 10 of the cleaning device, so that the locking component 300 is folded, thereby releasing the lock on the rotating cover 220 of the dust cup structure 10, so that the debris in the dust cup structure 10 can be collected through the base station 20.

[0123] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
