When the cleaning module is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member is in a stretched state.

[0031] In the cleaning module provided in the first aspect of this application, an adjusting member is used to connect the cleaning component and the machine body. The adjusting member provides a vertically upward force to the cleaning component, allowing it to make better contact with the surface to be cleaned. This avoids localized overpressure or gaps, resulting in a more even cleaning effect and ensuring the cleaning efficiency of the equipment. Furthermore, the adjusting member helps to reduce the pressure exerted by the cleaning component on the surface during cleaning, preventing excessive pressure from affecting the normal operation of the cleaning equipment. This improves the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment and enhances its cleaning effect.

[0032] The cleaning device provided in the second aspect of this application includes a body and a cleaning module. The cleaning module is disposed on the body and is used to clean a surface to be cleaned. The cleaning module includes a cleaning component and an adjusting member. The cleaning component is used to contact the surface to be cleaned to clean it. The adjusting member is used to connect the cleaning component to the body of the cleaning device, and the adjusting member can provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component.

[0033] In some embodiments, the cleaning device further includes a power module disposed on the body and connected to the cleaning module, the power module being used to drive the cleaning module to move relative to the body.

[0034] In some embodiments, the power module includes a drive component and a transmission component. One end of the transmission component is connected to the drive component, and the other end is connected to the cleaning module. The transmission component is used to transmit the driving force of the drive component to the cleaning module, so that the cleaning module moves relative to the body.

[0035] In some embodiments, the cleaning device further includes a mobile module movably disposed on the body and connected to both the mounting assembly of the cleaning module and the power module. The power module is used to drive the mobile module to move relative to the body, thereby driving the cleaning module to move relative to the body via the mounting assembly.

[0036] In some embodiments, the mobile module includes a loading member and a moving member, the loading member being fixedly disposed on the fuselage; at least a portion of the moving member is disposed in the loading member and is movable relative to the fuselage, the moving member being connected to both the first mounting member of the mounting assembly and the power module.

[0038] In some embodiments, the power module includes a drive component and a transmission component. One end of the transmission component is connected to the drive component, and the other end is connected to the moving module. The transmission component transmits the driving force of the drive component to the cleaning module through the moving module, thereby causing the cleaning module to move relative to the machine body. The transmission component includes a connector and a transmission component. The connector cooperates with the moving component.

[0039] In some embodiments, the movable member is provided with a connecting groove, and at least a portion of the connecting member is disposed in the connecting groove in the opposite direction of the width direction of the cleaning device. The connecting groove sequentially includes opposing first and second connecting sidewalls. When the driving member drives the connecting member to move in the opposite direction of the body relative to the cleaning device in the width direction, the connecting member engages with the second connecting sidewall. When the driving member drives the connecting member to move in the forward direction of the body relative to the cleaning device in the width direction, the connecting member engages with the first connecting sidewall.

[0040] In some embodiments, the cleaning device further includes an elastic element connected to both the connector and the first connecting sidewall; or connected to both the connector and the second connecting sidewall.

[0041] In some embodiments, the transmission component is a lead screw, the connecting component is a nut, the lead screw is rotatably mounted on the loading component and connected to the driving component, the nut is sleeved on the lead screw, and when the driving component drives the lead screw to rotate, the lead screw drives the nut to move, thereby driving the moving component to move relative to the machine body.

[0042] In the cleaning device provided in the second aspect of this application, the adjusting member is used to connect the cleaning component and the machine body, and the adjusting member can provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component. Therefore, when the cleaning component contacts the surface to be cleaned, the adjusting member can reduce the pressure of the cleaning component on the surface to be cleaned, preventing excessive pressure from the cleaning component on the surface to be cleaned from affecting the normal movement of the cleaning device, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning device and enhancing the cleaning effect of the cleaning device. In addition, the cleaning component can make better contact with the surface to be cleaned, avoiding the adverse phenomena of local overpressure or local gaps. This makes the cleaning effect of the cleaning component on the surface to be cleaned more balanced, thus improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device.

[0073] 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.

[0074] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, 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.

[0075] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used 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 as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0076] 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 according to the specific circumstances.

[0077] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can mean that the first feature is in direct contact with the second feature, or that the first feature is in indirect contact with the second feature through 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. "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.

[0078] It should be noted that when 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. When 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. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0079] As an intelligent device capable of cleaning surfaces, the cleaning equipment uses a mopping module mounted on its body to wipe the surface. The mopping module includes a mopping component that contacts the surface and rotates relative to it to wipe it. The rotation direction of the mopping component can be opposite to the rotation direction of the cleaning equipment's drive wheels, thus improving the cleaning effect.

[0080] Through creative work, the inventors discovered that in related technologies, there is a problem that the mop and the surface to be cleaned are not able to fit completely. That is, there are problems such as local overpressure and gaps between the mop and the surface to be cleaned, which affects the cleaning effect of the mop module on the surface to be cleaned.

[0081] For example, the mopping module may include tracked cleaning components and roller cleaning components. Tracked and roller cleaning components are usually heavy, and the connection between tracked and roller cleaning components and the machine body is a fixed connection. Therefore, they are easily affected by the cumulative error of component tolerances, which may cause the cleaning component to not fit completely with the surface to be cleaned, resulting in local overpressure and local gaps, thus leading to poor cleaning effect.

[0082] In addition, for heavier cleaning components, since the rotation direction of the cleaning component is opposite to the rotation direction of the drive wheel of the cleaning equipment, the cleaning equipment is prone to slipping and difficulty in moving during the cleaning process, or even moving in the opposite direction under the action of friction between the cleaning component and the surface to be cleaned. This affects the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment and is not conducive to improving the cleaning effect.

[0083] Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the inventors conducted in-depth research and designed a cleaning module with a relatively simple structure. The cleaning module includes a cleaning component and an adjusting component. The adjusting component connects the cleaning component to the machine body and can provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component.

[0084] Please see Figure 1 The cleaning device 100 in some embodiments of this application includes a body 10 and a cleaning module 20. The cleaning module 20 is disposed on the body 10 and is used to clean the surface to be cleaned. Since the cleaning device 100 of this embodiment includes the cleaning module 20, it is understood that the cleaning device 100 also includes at least the same beneficial effects as the cleaning module 20. Therefore, for the beneficial effects of the cleaning device 100, please refer to the beneficial effects of the cleaning module 20 described below.

[0085] The cleaning device 100 is an intelligent device capable of cleaning, vacuuming, and mopping. The cleaning device 100 may include a cleaning robot or a handheld cleaning device. Cleaning robots include, but are not limited to, robotic vacuum cleaners, intelligent robots, and mobile robots; handheld cleaning devices include, but are not limited to, robotic vacuum cleaners, floor scrubbers, and floor mops. In this embodiment, the cleaning module 20 is a device that assists the cleaning device 100 in performing mopping functions (e.g., wet mopping or dry mopping). When the cleaning device 100 is in normal cleaning mode, the cleaning module 20 can contact the surface to be cleaned to perform the mopping function. In some examples, the surface to be cleaned may be the floor inside a building.

[0086] The housing 10 is a device for mounting and protecting the cleaning module 20. The housing 10 is made of materials including, but not limited to, metallic and / or non-metallic materials. Metallic materials include, but are not limited to, aluminum, iron, steel, or aluminum alloys, while non-metallic materials include, but are not limited to, plastics. In one example, the housing 10 may be made of both metallic and non-metallic materials, thereby increasing its structural strength and preventing collision damage during operation of the cleaning equipment 100, thus improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100. In another example, the housing 10 may be made of non-metallic materials, thereby reducing its weight and contributing to the portability of the cleaning equipment 100.

[0087] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In certain embodiments of this application, a cleaning module 20 is used in a cleaning device 100. The cleaning module 20 includes a cleaning component 21 and an adjusting member 23. The cleaning component 21 includes a mopping member 215, which is used to contact the surface to be cleaned to clean the surface. The adjusting member 23 is used to connect the cleaning component 21 to the body 10 of the cleaning device 100, and the adjusting member 23 can provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the vertically upward direction may be: the direction opposite to the direction of gravity; or, when the cleaning device 100 is supported on the surface to be cleaned, the direction from the surface to be cleaned to the cleaning component 21.

[0088] In this regard, please combine Figure 3 The cleaning module 20 is a device capable of enabling the mopping function (e.g., wet mopping or dry mopping) of the cleaning equipment 100. Exemplarily, the cleaning component 21 includes a track-type cleaning element or a roller-type cleaning element. Specifically, in some embodiments, the cleaning component 21 may include a body 211 and a cleaning element 213. The cleaning element 213 may include a bracket 214 and a mopping element 215, with the mopping element 215 sleeved on the bracket 214. The body 211 can be connected to the machine body 10 via an adjusting member 23. The cleaning element 213 is detachably disposed on the side of the body 211 facing the surface to be cleaned. When the cleaning equipment 100 is in normal cleaning mode, the bracket 214 can drive the mopping element 215 to rotate relative to the surface to be cleaned to achieve cleaning of the surface. In some embodiments, when the cleaning component 21 includes a tracked cleaning component and the mopping component 215 is fitted onto the bracket 214, the cross-sectional shape of the mopping component 215 can be racetrack-shaped; when the cleaning component 21 includes a roller-type cleaning component and the mopping component 215 is fitted onto the bracket 214, the cross-sectional shape of the mopping component 215 can be annular. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the mopping component 215 includes, but is not limited to, disposable electrostatic mops, disposable wet mops, or reusable fabric mops.

[0089] Understandably, in some embodiments, when the cleaning device 100 cleans the surface to be cleaned, the cleaning component 21 needs to apply a certain pressure to the surface to be cleaned in order to effectively wipe away the stains. Since the cleaning device 100 mainly relies on the gravity of its structure (including but not limited to the cleaning component 21) to apply pressure to the surface to be cleaned so that the mopping component 215 can effectively clean the surface, in order to ensure the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100, the upward vertical force provided by the adjusting component 23 to the cleaning component 21 is less than the weight of the cleaning component 21 itself, so that the mopping component 215 can contact the surface to be cleaned and achieve the cleaning function, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0090] In the cleaning module 20 of this embodiment, the adjusting member 23 is used to connect the cleaning component 21 and the body 10. The adjusting member 23 can provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21, so that the cleaning component 21 can make better contact with the surface to be cleaned. This avoids the adverse phenomena of local overpressure or local gaps, thus making the cleaning effect of the cleaning component 21 on the surface to be cleaned more even and ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning equipment 100. Furthermore, the setting of the adjusting member 23 also helps to reduce the pressure of the cleaning component 21 on the surface to be cleaned when it contacts the surface to be cleaned. This prevents the excessive pressure of the cleaning component 21 on the surface to be cleaned from affecting the degree of adhesion between the cleaning component 21 and the surface to be cleaned, and from affecting the normal movement of the cleaning equipment 100. This ensures the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100 and improves the cleaning effect of the cleaning equipment 100.

[0091] The cleaning module 20 will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0092] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 7As shown in Figures 9 (including Figures 9(a) and 9(b)) or 10 (including Figures 10(a) and 10(b)), in some embodiments, the adjusting member 23 includes an elastic member 231. The elastic member 231 has elasticity, which can act on the cleaning component 21 to provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21. Therefore, the provision of the elastic member 231 can reduce the pressure applied by the cleaning component 21 to the surface to be cleaned, preventing the cleaning component 21 from applying excessive pressure to the surface to be cleaned, which would cause the cleaning equipment 100 to be unable to move normally, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100 and improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning equipment 100. In addition, the opposite ends of the elastic member 231 can be connected to the cleaning component 21 and the machine body 10, thereby ensuring that the elastic force can be stably transmitted to the cleaning component 21, and thus ensuring the normal operation of the cleaning equipment 100. In addition, the adjustment component 23 can also enable the cleaning component 21 to make better contact with the surface to be cleaned, which can avoid the adverse phenomena of local overpressure or local gaps. This makes the cleaning component 21 more evenly clean the surface to be cleaned, and ensures the cleaning effect of the cleaning equipment 100.

[0093] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the adjusting member 23 may include not only the elastic member 231, but also a magnetic member or other structures that can provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21. These will not be explained in detail here.

[0094] In some embodiments, when the cleaning component 21 moves relative to the body 10, that is, when the cleaning component 21 moves relative to the body 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning equipment 100, the elastic element 231 can always be in an elastic deformation state (including but not limited to a stretched state, a compressed state, a bent state, and a torsional state). In other words, the elastic element 231 can always apply a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100 in operation.

[0095] In some embodiments, the elastic element 231 comprises a single element. One end of the elastic element 231 is connected to the body 10, and the other end is connected to the cleaning component 21. The elastic element 231 is capable of elastic deformation to provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21. In other embodiments, the elastic element 231 comprises multiple elements. The multiple elastic elements 231 are spaced apart, and their opposite ends are connected to the body 10 and the cleaning component 21, respectively. This makes the elastic force on the cleaning component 21 more uniform, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the cleaning component 21's operation and improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning component 21.

[0096] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 7As shown in Figure 9 or Figure 10, in some embodiments, along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the elastic member 231 is fixed relative to the cleaning component 21, and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is fixed relative to the machine body 10. When the cleaning component 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 is in a compressed state.

[0097] It should be noted that, along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the elastic member 231 being fixed relative to the cleaning component 21 can be such that, when the cleaning component 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned and the cleaning module 20 is not subjected to external force (such as the force applied by the power module 30, or the force applied by a person or object in the external environment, etc.), the position or state of the upper end of the elastic member 231 relative to the cleaning component 21 remains unchanged; correspondingly, along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the lower end of the elastic member 231 being fixed relative to the body 10 can be such that, when the cleaning component 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned and the body 10 is not subjected to external force (such as the force applied by a person or object in the external environment, etc.), the position or state of the lower end of the elastic member 231 relative to the body 10 remains unchanged. As mentioned above, the cleaning component 21 can move relative to the body 10. Therefore, when the body 10 is stationary, the lower end of the elastic element 231 can act as a fixed end. This allows the elastic element 231 to apply a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21 when it is in a compressed state. This reduces the pressure exerted by the cleaning component 21 on the surface to be cleaned when it comes into contact with it, preventing excessive pressure. This, to a certain extent, improves the adhesion between the mopping component 215 and the surface to be cleaned, thereby enhancing the cleaning effect. This helps ensure the stable movement of the cleaning equipment 100 and improves the stability and reliability of its operation.

[0098] In some embodiments, the elastic element 231 includes at least one of the following: a compression spring, a rubber component, a hollow wheel, and a spring steel sheet. It is understood that, in addition to being a compression spring, a rubber component, a hollow wheel, and a spring steel sheet, the elastic element 231 can also be other structural components made of elastic materials such as silicone, spring steel, memory springs, and elastomeric plastics. For example, when the elastic element 231 includes a compression spring, along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the compression spring is fixed relative to the cleaning assembly 21, and the lower end of the compression spring is fixed relative to the machine body 10. When the cleaning assembly 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the compression spring is in a compressed state. Therefore, the compression spring can generate an elastic force acting on the cleaning assembly 21, so that the cleaning assembly 21 is subjected to an upward vertical force.

[0099] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, when the cleaning component 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned and the elastic member 231 is in a compressed state, the upper end of the elastic member 231 can be directly or indirectly fixedly connected to or abut against the cleaning component 21 to achieve relative fixation between the upper end of the elastic member 231 and the cleaning component 21; the lower end of the elastic member 231 can be directly or indirectly fixedly connected to or abut against the body 10 to achieve relative fixation between the lower end of the elastic member 231 and the body 10.

[0100] Please see Figure 11 In other embodiments, along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the elastic member 231 is fixed relative to the body 10, and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is fixed relative to the cleaning component 21. When the cleaning component 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 is in a stretched state. Therefore, the elastic member 231 has elasticity, and this elasticity can act on the cleaning component 21, so that the cleaning component 21 is subjected to an upward vertical force. This reduces the pressure exerted by the cleaning component 21 on the surface to be cleaned when it comes into contact with it, preventing excessive pressure and thus improving the adhesion between the mopping component 215 and the surface to be cleaned, thereby improving the cleaning effect. This helps ensure the stable movement of the cleaning device 100, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning device 100's operation.

[0101] It should be noted that, along the height direction Z of the cleaning equipment 100, the upper end of the elastic member 231 being fixed relative to the body 10 can be such that, when the cleaning component 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned and the cleaning module 20 is not subjected to external force (such as the force applied by the power module 30, or the force applied by a person or object in the external environment, etc.), the position or state of the upper end of the elastic member 231 relative to the body 10 remains unchanged; correspondingly, along the height direction Z of the cleaning equipment 100, the lower end of the elastic member 231 being fixed relative to the cleaning component 21 can be such that, when the cleaning component 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned and the body 10 is not subjected to external force (such as the force applied by a person or object in the external environment, etc.), the position or state of the lower end of the elastic member 231 relative to the cleaning component 21 remains unchanged. As mentioned above, the cleaning component 21 can move relative to the body 10. Therefore, when the body 10 is stationary, the upper end of the elastic element 231 can serve as a fixed end. This allows the elastic element 231 to apply a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21 when it is in a stretched state. This reduces the pressure exerted by the cleaning component 21 on the surface to be cleaned when it comes into contact with it, preventing excessive pressure. This, to a certain extent, improves the adhesion between the mopping component 215 and the surface to be cleaned, thereby enhancing the cleaning effect. This also helps ensure the stable movement of the cleaning equipment 100, thus improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100's operation.

[0102] In some embodiments, the elastic element 231 includes a tension spring. It is understood that, in addition to a tension spring, the elastic element 231 can also be other structural components made of elastic materials such as silicone, spring steel, memory springs, and elastomeric plastics. Specifically, when the elastic element 231 includes a tension spring, along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the tension spring is fixed relative to the body 10, and the lower end of the compression spring is fixed relative to the cleaning assembly 21. When the cleaning assembly 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the tension spring is in a stretched state, thereby generating an elastic force acting on the cleaning assembly 21, so that the cleaning assembly 21 is subjected to an upward vertical force.

[0103] It should be noted that in this embodiment, when the cleaning component 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned and the elastic member 231 is in a stretched state, the upper end of the elastic member 231 can be directly or indirectly fixedly connected to the body 10 to achieve relative fixation between the upper end of the elastic member 231 and the body 10; the lower end of the elastic member 231 can be directly or indirectly fixedly connected to the cleaning component 21 to achieve relative fixation between the lower end of the elastic member 231 and the cleaning component 21.

[0104] It is worth noting that the "upper end" and "lower end" of the elastic element 231 are relative terms on the elastic element 231. The upper end is only limited to being above the lower end, and is not strictly limited to the upper end and the lower end being located at the top and bottom of the structure of the elastic element 231 respectively.

[0105] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 Figure 9(a), Figure 10(a) or Figure 11 In some embodiments, the cleaning module 20 further includes a mounting assembly 25, which is connected to both the housing 10 and the cleaning assembly 21. At least two of the housing 10, the mounting assembly 25, and the cleaning assembly 21 are movably connected along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, so that the cleaning assembly 21 can move relative to the housing 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100.

[0106] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the power module 30 applies a force to the cleaning module 20, at least two of the body 10, the mounting component 25, and the cleaning component 21 can generate relative movement along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. This allows the cleaning component 21 to move relative to the body 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. As a result, the cleaning component 21 can be lifted when there are protrusions on the surface to be cleaned, or when the cleaning device 100 encounters an area on the surface to be cleaned that the user does not want to mop (such as a carpet area), the cleaning component 21 (mopping component) can be lifted, thereby ensuring the stability of the cleaning device 100's movement. This helps the cleaning device 100 adapt to different cleaning environments and cleaning needs, and improves the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0107] In some implementations, such as Figure 7 As shown, the mounting assembly 25 is movably connected to the body 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, and an elastic member 231 is provided between the body 10 and the mounting assembly 25. Exemplarily, the opposite ends of the elastic member 231 are connected to the body 10 and the mounting assembly 25 respectively, to achieve a floating connection between the body 10 and the mounting assembly 25 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. That is, the body 10 and the mounting assembly 25 can move relative to each other along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, since the mounting assembly 25 is used to connect the body 10 and the cleaning assembly 21. Therefore, the mounting assembly 25 can drive the cleaning assembly 21 to move relative to the body 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. The elastic member 231 can provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning assembly 21 through the mounting assembly 25.

[0108] In other implementations, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown in Figures 9 and 10, the mounting assembly 25 and the cleaning assembly 21 are movably connected along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. An elastic element 231 may be provided between the mounting assembly 25 and the cleaning assembly 21. For example, the opposite ends of the elastic element 231 are connected to the mounting assembly 25 and the cleaning assembly 21 respectively, to achieve a floating connection between the mounting assembly 25 and the cleaning assembly 21 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. That is, the mounting assembly 25 and the body 10 can move relative to each other along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. Since the mounting assembly 25 is used to connect the body 10 and the cleaning assembly 21, the cleaning assembly 21 can move relative to the body 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. The elastic element 231 can provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning assembly 21.

[0109] In some other implementations, such as Figure 11As shown, the body 10 and the cleaning component 21 are movably connected along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, and an elastic member 231 is provided between the body 10 and the cleaning component 21. For example, the opposite ends of the elastic member 231 are connected to the body 10 and the cleaning component 21 respectively, to achieve a movable connection between the body 10 and the cleaning component 21 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. That is, the body 10 and the cleaning component 21 can move relative to each other along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, thereby allowing the cleaning component 21 to move relative to the body 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. The elastic member 231 can provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21. For example, the elastic element 231 is a tension spring, and the cleaning component 21 is suspended below the body 10 by the tension spring. Furthermore, one of the cleaning component 21 and the body 10 may be provided with a guide rod (not shown) extending along the height direction Z of the cleaning equipment 100, and the other of the cleaning component 21 and the body 10 may be provided with a sleeve (not shown) that cooperates with the guide rod. The cooperation between the guide rod and the sleeve realizes the guidance of the cleaning component 21 relative to the body 10 in the height direction Z, and avoids the cleaning component 21 from swaying relative to the body 10.

[0110] Please refer to it again. Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 Figures 9(a), 9(b), 10(a), and 10(b) Figure 11 In some embodiments, the mounting component 25 includes a first mounting member 251 and a second mounting member 253. The first mounting member 251 is connected to the body 10, and the second mounting member 253 is connected to the cleaning component 21. The first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253 are movably connected along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100 so that the cleaning component 21 can move relative to the body 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100.

[0111] In some embodiments, the cleaning device 100 includes a power module 30 disposed on the body 10 for driving the cleaning module 20 to move relative to the body 10. In some embodiments, when the power module 30 applies a force to the cleaning module 20, the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253 can generate relative movement along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, thereby enabling the cleaning component 21 to move relative to the body 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. Thus, the cleaning component 21 can be lifted when there are protrusions on the surface to be cleaned, or when the cleaning device 100 encounters an area on the surface to be cleaned that the user does not want to mop (such as a carpet area), the cleaning component 21 (mopping component) can be lifted, thereby ensuring the stability of the cleaning device 100's movement, which in turn helps the cleaning device 100 adapt to different cleaning environments and cleaning needs, and improves the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0112] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 9(a) and 9(b), or Figures 10(a) and 10(b), an elastic member 231 is provided between the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253. Specifically, in this embodiment, the opposite ends of the elastic member 231 are connected to the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253 respectively, so as to realize the movable connection between the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, thereby enabling the cleaning assembly 21 to move relative to the body 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. The elastic member 231 can provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning assembly 21 through the second mounting member 253.

[0113] In some embodiments, the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253 are movably connected along the width direction (X1 / X2) and the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, so that the cleaning assembly 21 can move relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) and the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. The width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 is perpendicular to the forward direction Y of the cleaning device 100. That is, the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253 can move relative to each other in the height direction Z and the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100, thereby allowing the cleaning assembly 21 to move relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) and the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100.

[0114] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the power module 30 applies a force to the cleaning module 20, the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253 can move along the width direction (X1 / X2) and the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, thereby enabling the cleaning component 21 to move along the width direction (X1 / X2) and the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. This allows the cleaning component 21 to clean the corners of the surface to be cleaned (e.g., the area near the wall when the surface is the ground), thus reducing the overall dimensions of the machine body 10. The size limitation improves the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100; on the other hand, it allows the cleaning component 21 to be raised on the surface to be cleaned, so that the cleaning robot can overcome obstacles and improve the passability of the cleaning robot; or, when the cleaning device 100 encounters an area that the user does not want to mop (such as a carpet area) on the surface to be cleaned, the cleaning component 21 is raised to prevent the cleaning device 100 from mopping the carpet area and contaminating the carpet area in reverse. Thus, while ensuring the stability of the cleaning device 100's movement, it also helps the cleaning device 100 adapt to different cleaning environments and cleaning needs, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0115] like Figure 8 As shown in Figures 9(a) and 10, in some embodiments, the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253 are movable relative to each other along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100. Specifically, in some embodiments, when the cleaning module 20 is subjected to an external force (e.g., the force applied to the cleaning module 20 by the power module 30), the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253 can move relative to each other along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100, thereby enabling the cleaning assembly 21 to move along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100. This allows the cleaning assembly 21 to clean the corners of the surface to be cleaned (e.g., the area near the wall on the ground when the surface to be cleaned is the floor), thereby reducing the limitation on the external dimensions of the device 10 and improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100. Further, please refer to... Figure 7 and Figure 8Figure 9(a) shows that in some embodiments, the first mounting member 251 includes a guide rail 2511 disposed on the body 10, the length direction of the guide rail 2511 being parallel to the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100. The second mounting member 253 is slidably disposed within the first mounting member 251. Specifically, in some embodiments, when the cleaning module 20 is subjected to an external force (e.g., the force applied to the cleaning module 20 by the power module 30), the second mounting member 253 can move relative to the body 10 within the first mounting member 251 in a direction parallel to the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100. In other words, the first mounting member 251 can guide the second mounting member 253 to move relative to the body 10 in a direction parallel to the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100.

[0116] Please combine Figure 7 In some embodiments, the guide rail 2511 can be movably connected to the body 10. Specifically, the guide rail 2511 can be floatingly connected to the body 10 via an elastic element 231, meaning the guide rail 2511 can move relative to the body 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. Referring to Figures 9(a), 9(b), 10(a), and 10(b), in other embodiments, the guide rail 2511 can be fixedly connected to the body 10, meaning the guide rail 2511 cannot move relative to the body 10. The methods of fixed connection between the guide rail 2511 and the body 10 include, but are not limited to, detachable or non-detachable connections. Detachable connections include, but are not limited to, threaded connections or snap-fit ​​connections, while non-detachable connections include, but are not limited to, adhesive or welding.

[0117] In some implementation methods, please refer to Figure 8 As shown in Figure 9 or Figure 10, the cleaning assembly 21 includes a first side 2101 and a second side 2103 facing away from each other in the forward direction Y of the cleaning device 100. Two first mounting members 251 are included, each opposite to the first side 2101 and the second side 2103 of the cleaning assembly 21.

[0118] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the first mounting member 251 includes guide rails 2511, there are two first mounting members 251, that is, there are two guide rails 2511. In this case, the second mounting member 253 may also include at least two, and at least two second mounting members 253 are respectively disposed on the first side 2101 and the second side 2103 of the cleaning component 21, and respectively cooperate with the guide grooves 2512 of the two guide rails 2511. This makes the movement of the cleaning component 21 relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning equipment 100 more stable, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100.

[0119] Please combine Figure 12 In other embodiments, the cleaning component 21 includes a first side 2101 and a second side 2103 facing away from each other in the forward direction Y of the cleaning device 100. A first mounting member 251 is included, and the first mounting member 251 is provided with a mounting groove 2517, in which at least a portion of the cleaning component 21 is disposed. The mounting groove 2517 includes a first sidewall opposite to the first side 2101 of the cleaning component 21 and a second sidewall opposite to the second side 2103 of the cleaning component 21.

[0120] Specifically, in some embodiments, at least a portion of the cleaning component 21 is disposed in the mounting groove 2517. The first mounting member 251 may further include a guide groove 2512, which is disposed on a first sidewall and a second sidewall of the mounting groove 2517 and communicates with the mounting groove 2517. The second mounting member 253 may include at least two, and the at least two second mounting members 253 are respectively disposed on the first side 2101 and the second side 2103 of the cleaning component 21, and respectively cooperate with the guide grooves 2512 of the first side wall and the second side wall of the mounting groove 2517. This makes the movement of the cleaning component 21 relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning equipment 100 more stable, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100. On the other hand, compared with the first mounting member 251 including two, the first mounting member 251 includes only one, which can facilitate the parallelism of the two guide grooves 2512 during installation and prevent the cleaning component 21 from being difficult to move relative to the body 10 in the guide groove 2512 due to the non-parallelism of the two guide grooves 2512.

[0121] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, when the power module 30 drives the cleaning module 20 to move relative to the body 10, the cleaning module 20 can switch between a first state, a second state, and a third state. In the first and second states, the cleaning module 20 is in contact with the surface to be cleaned; in the second state, the target end of the cleaning module 20 is further away from the centerline of the cleaning device 100 in the width direction compared to the first state; in the third state, the cleaning module 20 is spaced apart from the surface to be cleaned; wherein, when the target end of the cleaning module 20 is the side of the cleaning module 20 closest to the obstacle as the cleaning robot moves along an obstacle; the "obstacle" can be a wall, cabinet, or other ground-level object.

[0122] For example, please refer to the appendix. Figures 13(a) to 13(b) ,as well as Figures 14(a) to 14(b)As shown in Figures 13(a) and 14(a), when the cleaning device is in the first state, there is a cleaning blind spot between the right side of the cleaning device and the wall. In order to clean this cleaning blind spot, the cleaning module can be driven to move to the right by the power module, so that the cleaning module switches to the second state, as shown in Figures 13(b) and 14(b). When the cleaning module is in the second state, the right edge of the cleaning module can fit better against the wall, or the distance between it and the wall can be very small, so as to eliminate or reduce the cleaning blind spot, thereby enabling the cleaning module to clean the area along the edge of the wall better.

[0123] Therefore, the cleaning module 20 of the cleaning device 100 can not only work in the normal cleaning state (first state), but also in the side-shifting cleaning state (second state), so that the cleaning module 20 can clean the corners of the surface to be cleaned (for example, the position near the wall on the ground when the surface to be cleaned is the ground, or the corner position), thereby reducing the limitation of the size of the body 10 and improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0124] Furthermore, when the cleaning module 20 is in the third state, it is spaced apart from the surface to be cleaned. This allows the cleaning module 20 to rise when there are protrusions on the surface, facilitating obstacle crossing and improving its mobility. Alternatively, if there are areas on the surface to be cleaned that the user does not want to be mopped (such as carpet areas), the cleaning module 20 rises to ensure cleaning effectiveness and prevent the cleaning device 100 from mopping the carpet area and causing back-contamination. This allows the cleaning device 100 to adapt to different cleaning environments and needs, improving its cleaning performance.

[0125] In some embodiments, when the cleaning module 20 is in a first state, the cleaning module 20 is in contact with the surface to be cleaned, and the cleaning module 20 is located within the widest region of the body 10; when the cleaning module 20 is in a second state, the cleaning module 20 is in contact with the surface to be cleaned, and at least a portion of the cleaning module 20 is located outside the widest region of the body 10, or one end (target end) of the cleaning module 20 is flush with the edge of the widest region of the body 10; wherein, the widest region is the region formed by two tangents along the forward direction Y of the cleaning device 100 when the projection of the body 10 onto the surface to be cleaned is applied.

[0126] Specifically, please combine Figure 15In some embodiments, the first state may be the state in which the cleaning module 20 is in contact with the surface to be cleaned, and the projection of the cleaning module 20 onto the surface to be cleaned is located within the widest area of ​​the body 10. The second state may be the state in which the cleaning module 20 is in contact with the surface to be cleaned, and the target end of the projection of the cleaning module 20 onto the surface to be cleaned is outside the widest area of ​​the body 10, or the target end of the projection of the cleaning module 20 onto the surface to be cleaned is flush with the edge of the widest area of ​​the body 10. For example, when the cleaning module 20 includes a tracked cleaning component, the second state may be in which the right end of the tracked cleaning component is flush with the edge of the widest area of ​​the body 10. Alternatively, the right end of the tracked cleaning component may extend beyond the edge of the widest area of ​​the body 10. The third state may be the state in which the cleaning module 20 is spaced from the surface to be cleaned. The widest region is the area formed by two tangents along the forward direction Y of the cleaning device 100, specifically: the region formed by the first tangent L1 passing through the leftmost end of the projection of the machine body 10 onto the surface to be cleaned, and the second tangent L2 passing through the rightmost end of the projection of the machine body 10 onto the surface to be cleaned. The extension directions of both the first tangent L1 and the second tangent L2 are the same as the forward direction Y of the cleaning device 100.

[0127] Further, please refer to Figure 1 and combined Figure 17 and Figure 18 In some embodiments, the cleaning device 100 may further include a movable module 40, which is movably disposed on the body 10 and connected to both the cleaning module 20 (mounting assembly 25) and the power module 30. The power module 30 is used to drive the movable module 40 to move relative to the body 10, thereby driving the cleaning module 20 to move relative to the body 10.

[0128] Specifically, in some embodiments, the movable module 40 is movably disposed on the body 10 and can be connected to the power module 30. When the power module 30 is operating stably, the driving force generated by the power module 30 can move the movable module 40 relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning equipment 100. This allows the cleaning module 20 to move relative to the body 10 via the mounting component 25, enabling the cleaning equipment 100 to adjust the state of the cleaning module 20 according to the specific working conditions of the surface to be cleaned. This improves the applicability of the cleaning equipment 100 and ensures its cleaning effect.

[0129] Please combine Figure 18In some embodiments, the mobile module 40 includes a loading member 41 and a moving member 43. The loading member 41 is fixedly disposed on the body 10. At least a portion of the moving member 43 is disposed in the loading member 41 and is movable relative to the body 10. The moving member 43 is connected to both the first mounting member 251 of the mounting assembly 25 and the power module 30.

[0130] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the power module 30 is operating stably, the driving force generated by the power module 30 can drive the moving part 43 to move relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 in the loading part 41, so as to drive the cleaning module 20 to move relative to the body 10 through the first mounting part 251 of the mounting assembly 25, thereby enabling the cleaning device 100 to adjust the state of the cleaning module 20 according to the specific working conditions of the surface to be cleaned.

[0131] More specifically, in some embodiments, the first mounting component 251 and the movable component 43 are detachably connected. This facilitates the assembly of the first mounting component 251 and the movable component 43, improving the assembly efficiency of the cleaning equipment 100. Furthermore, it allows for easy disassembly for repair or replacement should the movable module 40 or mounting assembly 25 be damaged, thus ensuring the normal operation of the cleaning equipment 100. The detachable connection methods include, but are not limited to, bolted connections or snap-fit ​​connections.

[0132] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 17 and Figure 18 In some embodiments, the loading member 41 is provided with a guide groove 411, which is recessed from the side of the loading member 41 opposite to the surface to be cleaned toward the surface to be cleaned. At least a portion of the moving member 43 is disposed in the guide groove 411, which is used to guide the moving member 43 to move relative to the body 10.

[0133] The guide groove 411 can guide the moving part 43 to move relative to the body 10, and can also limit the moving direction and travel of the moving part 43 relative to the body 10. This prevents the moving direction and travel of the moving part 43 from being unrestricted when the power module 30 program malfunctions, which could cause the cleaning module 20 to collide with the body 10 or other objects and be damaged. This can improve the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100.

[0134] Please combine Figure 2 , Figure 8 Or as shown in Figure 9, in some embodiments, the power module 30 includes a drive member 31 and a transmission member 33. One end of the transmission member 33 is connected to the drive member 31, and the other end is connected to the cleaning module 20. The transmission member 33 is used to transmit the driving force of the drive member 31 to the cleaning module 20 so that the cleaning module 20 moves relative to the body 10.

[0135] Specifically, in some embodiments, the transmission component 33 can be connected to the cleaning module 20 via the moving module 40, or the transmission component 33 can be directly connected to the cleaning module 20. When the drive component 31 is moving stably, the driving force generated by the drive component 31 can be transmitted to the cleaning module 20 via the transmission component 33. Thus, the drive component 31 can drive the cleaning module 20 to move relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) and / or along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100.

[0136] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the driving component 31 may be a driving structure such as a motor or an electric actuator, wherein the motor includes, but is not limited to, a DC servo motor, an AC servo motor, and a stepper motor. The transmission component 33 may include, but is not limited to, one or more of the following transmission structures: a gear and rack assembly, a wire rope assembly, a lead screw assembly, a gear assembly, a worm gear transmission assembly, a chain transmission assembly, and a pulley transmission assembly, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0137] Furthermore, in some embodiments, one end of the transmission component 33 is connected to the drive component 31, and the other end is connected to the moving module 40. The transmission component 33 is used to transmit the driving force of the drive component 31 to the cleaning module 20 through the moving module 40 and the mounting assembly 25, so that the cleaning module 20 moves relative to the body 10. The transmission component 33 includes a connector 331 and a transmission component 333, and the connector 331 cooperates with the moving component 43. The transmission component 333 is connected to both the drive component 31 and the connector 331. The drive component 31 drives the connector 331 to move relative to the body 10 through the transmission component 333, so as to drive the moving component 43 to move relative to the body 10.

[0138] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the drive member 31 is operating stably, the driving force generated by the drive member 31 can be transmitted to the moving member 43 in sequence through the transmission member 333 and the connecting member 331, so that the moving member 43 moves relative to the body 10, and drives the cleaning module 20 to move relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) and / or along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100.

[0139] In some embodiments, the movable member 43 is provided with a connecting groove 431, and at least a portion of the connecting member 331 is disposed in the connecting groove 431 in the opposite direction (X1 / X2) of the width direction of the cleaning device 100. The connecting groove 431 sequentially includes a first connecting sidewall 4311 and a second connecting sidewall 4313. When the driving member 31 drives the connecting member 331 to move relative to the body 10 in the opposite direction (X1 / X2) of the width direction of the cleaning device 100 (X2), the connecting member 331 engages with the second connecting sidewall 4313. When the driving member 31 drives the connecting member 331 to move relative to the body 10 in the forward direction (X1 / X2) of the width direction of the cleaning device 100 (X1), the connecting member 331 engages with the first connecting sidewall 4311.

[0140] It is worth noting that, in this embodiment, the cooperation between the connector 331 and the first connecting sidewall 4311 only refers to the interaction force between the connector 331 and the first connecting sidewall 4311, and does not imply that the connector 331 needs to be in direct contact with the first connecting sidewall 4311. Similarly, the cooperation between the connector 331 and the second connecting sidewall 4313 also only refers to the interaction force between the connector 331 and the second connecting sidewall 4313, and does not imply that the connector 331 needs to be in direct contact with the second connecting sidewall 4313.

[0141] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the transmission member 333 is a lead screw, the connecting member 331 is a nut, the lead screw is rotatably disposed on the loading member 41 and connected to the driving member 31, the nut is sleeved on the lead screw, and when the driving member 31 drives the lead screw to rotate, the lead screw drives the nut to move, so as to drive the moving member 43 to move relative to the machine body 10.

[0142] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the drive member 31 is operating stably, the driving force of the drive member 31 can be transmitted to the lead screw to drive the lead screw to rotate relative to the loading member 41. At the same time, the lead screw can drive the nut to move along the extension direction of the lead screw to drive the moving member 43 to move relative to the machine body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning equipment 100.

[0143] Please combine Figure 19 In some embodiments, the cleaning device 100 further includes an elastic element 50, which is connected to both the connector 331 and the first connecting sidewall 4311; or to both the connector 331 and the second connecting sidewall 4313. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the elastic element 50 includes at least one of the following: a spring, a sheet, or a rubber component.

[0144] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the cleaning module 20 is in the second state, the cleaning module 20 is able to clean the area along the edge of the wall. Therefore, during the cleaning process, the cleaning module 20 may collide with the wall, causing the cleaning module 20 to be subjected to a positive external force X1 along the width direction (X1 / X2); or, when the cleaning module 20 is in the second state, the cleaning module 20 is able to clean the area along the edge of the wall, and since in this state the end of the cleaning module 20 can be in contact with the wall, or the distance between the cleaning module 20 and the wall is very small, if the wall is not a straight wall but a non-straight wall, for example, the cross-sectional shape of the wall is curved (including but not limited to arc or wave shape, etc.), the cleaning module 20 will also collide with the wall, causing the cleaning module 20 to be subjected to a positive external force X1 along the width direction (X1 / X2).

[0145] When the cleaning module 20 is subjected to an external force of positive X1 along the width direction (X1 / X2), due to the reduction ratio of the drive component 31, the power module cannot drive the cleaning module 20 to move along the width direction (X1 / X2) in a timely manner to release the external force. This will cause the cleaning module 20 to be damaged under the action of the external force, affecting the normal operation of the cleaning equipment 100. In this disclosure, when the cleaning module 20 is in the second state and is subjected to an external force of positive X1 along the width direction (X1 / X2), the cleaning module 20 can move along the width direction (X1 / X2) in the positive X1 direction, and the moving member 43 is driven to move along the width direction (X1 / X2) in the positive X1 direction by the mounting component 25. In this case, the elastic member 50 can undergo elastic deformation and generate elastic force, so that the elastic member 50 can buffer the external force of positive X1 along the width direction (X1 / X2) on the cleaning module 20, thereby reducing the influence of the reduction ratio of the drive member 31, preventing damage to the cleaning module 20, and ensuring the normal operation of the cleaning equipment 100.

[0146] Furthermore, when the positive X1 force along the width direction (X1 / X2) on the cleaning module 20 disappears, the elastic member 50 can also move the cleaning module 20 in the opposite direction (X1 / X2) X2 along the width direction, so that the cleaning module 20 moves back to basically fit against the wall. That is, the setting of the elastic member 50 allows the cleaning module 20 to move along the change of the cross-sectional shape of the wall, so that the cleaning module 20 keeps basically fitted against the wall, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0147] In some embodiments, when the elastic member 50 includes a tension spring, the tension spring is fixedly connected to both the connector 331 and the first connecting sidewall 4311. For example, a tension spring with high stiffness can be selected. During the lateral movement of the cleaning module 20, i.e., during the reverse X2 movement of the cleaning module 20 along the width direction (X1 / X2), the tension spring can have a certain degree of tension. The connector 331 pulls the moving member 43 to move via the tension spring, causing the cleaning module 20 to laterally move. After the cleaning module 20 has laterally moved into position, the tension spring still has a stretch margin. In this configuration, after the cleaning module 20 is moved to its lateral position, the connector 331 is spaced apart from the second connecting sidewall 4313 along the width direction (X1 / X2). Thus, when the cleaning module 20 is in the second state and is subjected to an external force X1 in the positive direction along the width direction (X1 / X2), the cleaning module 20 can move along the positive direction X1 along the width direction (X1 / X2). At this time, the tension spring can continue to be stretched to absorb the external force on the cleaning module 20. When the external force X1 in the positive direction along the width direction (X1 / X2) on the cleaning module 20 disappears, the elastic force generated by the stretched tension spring can cause the cleaning module 20 to move back to the position of the cleaning module 20 in the second state along the reverse direction X2 along the width direction (X1 / X2). That is, the elastic force generated by the stretched tension spring can cause the cleaning module 20 to move back to the position where the cleaning module 20 is basically in contact with the wall along the reverse direction X2 along the width direction (X1 / X2), thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0148] In other embodiments, when the elastic member 50 includes a compression spring, the compression spring is connected to both the connecting member 331 and the second connecting sidewall 4313, and the connection between the compression spring and at least one of the connecting member 331 and the second connecting sidewall 4313 is abutting. For example, a compression spring with high stiffness can be selected. During the lateral movement of the cleaning module 20, that is, during the movement of the cleaning module 20 in the opposite direction (X1 / X2) X2 along the width direction, the compression spring can have a certain degree of compression. The connecting member 331 moves by pushing the moving member 43 against the compression spring to cause the cleaning module 20 to move laterally. After the cleaning module 20 has moved to its position, the compression spring still has a compression margin. After the cleaning module 20 is moved to its lateral position, the connector 331 is spaced apart from the second connecting sidewall 4313 along the width direction (X1 / X2). Thus, when the cleaning module 20 is in the second state and is subjected to an external force X1 in the positive direction along the width direction (X1 / X2), the cleaning module 20 can move along the positive direction X1 along the width direction (X1 / X2). At this time, the compression spring can continue to be compressed to absorb the external force on the cleaning module 20. When the external force X1 in the positive direction along the width direction (X1 / X2) on the cleaning module 20 disappears, the elastic force generated by the compression of the compression spring can make the cleaning module 20 move back to the position of the cleaning module 20 in the second state along the reverse direction X2 along the width direction (X1 / X2). That is, the elastic force generated by the compression of the compression spring can make the cleaning module 20 move back to the position where the cleaning module 20 is basically in contact with the wall along the reverse direction X2 along the width direction (X1 / X2), thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0149] When the cleaning module 20 is in a lateral movement state and is cleaning along the edge, if the cleaning module 20 collides with an obstacle, the impact damage can be reduced by the buffer of the elastic member 50. If there is no gap in the height direction Z between the second mounting member 253 of the mounting component 25 and the cleaning component 21 when the cleaning module 20 contacts the surface to be cleaned, the cleaning module 20 will move vertically upward when it encounters a protrusion on the surface to be cleaned during the cleaning process. This will cause the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253 to move. Since the first mounting member 251 is connected to the moving module 40 and the elastic member 50 is compressed, the elastic force of the elastic member 50 will generate a relatively large downward component force on the second mounting member 253 through the first mounting member 251. This component force will be converted into the pressure of the cleaning component 21 on the surface to be cleaned, resulting in large fluctuations in mopping pressure. The pressure on the surface to be cleaned will affect the degree of slippage of the cleaning device 100 and the mopping effect, making the cleaning device 100 prone to slippage and unstable mopping effect.

[0150] To address the aforementioned technical problems, in some embodiments of this disclosure, a gap h is provided between the second mounting member 253 and the cleaning component 21 in the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100; when the cleaning component 21 floats along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the amount of float of the cleaning component 21 is less than the size of the gap h. That is, when the cleaning module 20 contacts the surface to be cleaned, a gap h is provided between the second mounting member 253 and the cleaning component 21, and when the cleaning component 21 floats along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the amount of float of the cleaning component 21 is less than the size of the gap h. For example, when the cleaning module 20 just contacts the surface to be cleaned, the gap h is 5mm ± 2mm. It is understood that the higher the protrusions (e.g., particles) on the surface to be cleaned, the more they will compress the cleaning module 20 to move upwards, thereby reducing the gap h. According to the inventors’ research, the size of particles on the surface to be cleaned in a home setting is generally no higher than 5mm±2mm. Therefore, in this embodiment, when the cleaning module 20 just comes into contact with the surface to be cleaned, the gap h is 5mm±2mm. This makes it less likely that the cleaning device 100 will be affected by the height fluctuation of the surface to be cleaned, which would cause changes in the mopping pressure and thus ensure the cleaning effect.

[0151] During the cleaning process, to ensure the cleaning effect of the cleaning module 20 on the surface to be cleaned, the rotation direction of the cleaning module 20 is opposite to that of the drive wheel. However, if the pressure of the cleaning module 20 on the surface to be cleaned is too great, the friction between the surface to be cleaned and the cleaning module 20 will be too great. Therefore, in extreme slippery scenarios, such as when the wheels run over wet garbage, or when the cleaning device 100 moves to a surface with a high coefficient of friction, or when there are oil stains on the surface, the cleaning module 20 is likely to drag the cleaning device 100 in the opposite direction of its forward movement Y, thus hindering the cleaning device 100 from moving in the above slippery scenarios.

[0152] In this application, the cleaning device 100 includes a power module 30, which is connected to the cleaning module 20 and can drive the cleaning module 20 to move along the height direction Z. During the cleaning process, if the cleaning device 100 encounters the aforementioned slippage scenario, the power module 30 can apply a force to the cleaning module 20, causing the cleaning module 20 to move away from the surface to be cleaned along the height direction Z. This lifts the cleaning module 20, reducing the pressure of the cleaning module 20 on the surface to be cleaned and decreasing the friction between the surface and the cleaning module 20. This prevents the cleaning robot from becoming immobile or being driven backward by the cleaning module 20, thus ensuring that the drive wheels of the cleaning device 100 can smoothly drive the cleaning device 100 to move normally in the aforementioned slippage scenario. Since the cleaning component 21 is connected to the body 10 via the elastic element 231, the cleaning component 21 can be floatingly connected to the body 10. Therefore, when the power module 30 drives the cleaning module 20 to lift, the cleaning module 20 can descend under the action of gravity to still be in contact with the surface to be cleaned, thereby ensuring that the cleaning equipment 100 can still perform normal cleaning when it travels to the above-mentioned slipping scenario, and simultaneously take into account both walking and cleaning functions with a relatively appropriate ground pressure.

[0153] The structure and installation of mounting component 25 and elastic element 231 will be described below with reference to the specific accompanying drawings.

[0154] Specific Embodiment 1 of this application

[0155] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 In Embodiment 1, the second mounting member 253 is located on the side of the cleaning assembly 21 near the body 10. Exemplarily, it can be located on the side of the body 211 of the cleaning assembly 21 near the chassis of the body 10. The second mounting member 253 has a first mounting hole 2531 extending along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. The cleaning assembly 21 includes a first guide member 217, which passes through the first mounting hole 2531. A first limiting member 219 is provided at the end of the first guide member 217 away from the cleaning assembly 21. The first limiting member 219 is connected to the cleaning assembly 21 and is used to limit the extreme movement position of the cleaning assembly 21 relative to the second mounting member 253. Along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the first limiting member 219, and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the second mounting member 253. When the cleaning module 20 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 is in a compressed state.

[0156] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the first mounting member 251 is not subjected to external force (such as the force exerted by the power module 30 on the first mounting member 251), there will be no relative movement between the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253. Furthermore, since the upper end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the first limiting member 219 and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the second mounting member 253, the lower end of the elastic member 231 can serve as a fixed end. Thus, when the elastic member 231 is in a compressed state, the elastic member 231 can exert a vertically upward force on the cleaning component 21 through the first limiting member 219, thereby preventing the cleaning component 21 from applying excessive pressure to the surface to be cleaned when it comes into contact with the surface to be cleaned.

[0157] In this embodiment, at least a portion of the first mounting member 251 may be disposed in the second mounting member 253 and movably connected to the second mounting member 253 along the width direction (X1 / X2) and / or the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. The first guide member 217 can pass through the first mounting hole 2531 and extend into the second mounting member 253. Therefore, the first mounting hole 2531 prevents interference between the first mounting member 251 and the first guide member 217 during assembly, thus ensuring normal assembly of the cleaning device 100. Furthermore, the first limiting member 219 is disposed at the end of the first guide member 217 opposite to the cleaning component 21. Therefore, the first limiting member 219 can limit the extreme movement position of the cleaning component 21 relative to the body 10 in the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, preventing unrestricted movement of the cleaning component 21 from causing collision damage between the cleaning component 21 and the body 10 or external structures. This improves the stability and reliability of the cleaning device 100 and extends the service life of the cleaning component 21.

[0158] In some embodiments, the first guide member 217 and the first limiting member 219 may be integrally formed, that is, the first guide member 217 and the first limiting member 219 are a single structure. This can improve the bonding strength between the first guide member 217 and the first limiting member 219, preventing the first limiting member 219 from falling off the first guide member 217 when the cleaning assembly 21 and the second mounting member 253 move relative to each other, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100. For example, the cleaning assembly 21 may include a bolt, with the shank of the bolt serving as the first guide member 217 and the head of the bolt serving as the first limiting member 219. In other examples, the first guide member 217 and the first limiting member 219 may be joined together using a non-removable connection or a detachable connection. The non-removable connection includes, but is not limited to, bonding or welding; the detachable connection includes, but is not limited to, snap-fit ​​connections or threaded connections.

[0159] In this embodiment, the elastic element 231 can be a compression spring. Along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the compression spring is connected to the first limiting member 219, and the lower end of the compression spring is connected to the second mounting member 253. When the cleaning module 20 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the compression spring is in a compressed state to provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21. The compression spring can be sleeved on the first guide member 217. Thus, the first guide member 217 can limit the deformation of the compression spring along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. That is to say, the first guide member 217 can limit the deformation direction (compression direction) of the compression spring along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, preventing the compression spring from deforming in other directions (such as the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100, etc.) and causing the compression spring to be unable to provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning device 100.

[0160] Please continue reading. Figure 2 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, one of the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253 is provided with a movable groove 201, and the other of the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253 is provided with a moving member 203 that cooperates with the movable groove 201. The moving member 203 is movably disposed within the movable groove 201. It should be noted that the moving member 203 may include, but is not limited to, protrusions or rollers.

[0161] Specifically, in some embodiments, the first mounting member 251 is provided with a movable groove 201, and the second mounting member 253 is provided with a moving member 203 that mates with the movable groove 201. In other embodiments, the first mounting member 251 is provided with a moving member 203, and the second mounting member 253 is provided with a movable groove 201 that mates with the moving member 203. In this embodiment, only the example of the first mounting member 251 having a moving member 203 and the second mounting member 253 having a movable groove 201 that mates with the moving member 203 will be described.

[0162] Please combine Figure 6 In this embodiment, the second mounting member 253 is box-shaped and has a receiving cavity 205, in which the first mounting member 251 is received. Specifically, in some embodiments, the second mounting member 253 includes a first side opposite to the cleaning device 100 in the height direction Z. Figure 6 The lower side of the second mounting part 253) and the second side ( Figure 6The first mounting member 251 is located on the upper side of the second mounting member 253, with its first side opposite to the main body 211. A receiving cavity 205 is recessed from the second side of the second mounting member 253 toward its first side. At least a portion of the first mounting member 251 is accommodated within the receiving cavity 205. Therefore, the arrangement of the receiving cavity 205 reduces the space occupied by the mounting assembly 25, thus facilitating the miniaturization of the cleaning equipment 100. Furthermore, it facilitates the mounting and positioning of the second mounting member 253 on the first mounting member 251, thereby improving assembly efficiency. It is understood that in some embodiments, the first mounting hole 2531 may be recessed from the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 205 toward a direction away from the center of the receiving cavity 205, and the first guide member 217 passes through the second mounting member 253 and extends into the receiving cavity 205.

[0163] In one example, the moving groove 201 can be a through groove, meaning that the moving groove 201 penetrates the side wall of the receiving cavity 205. This allows for quick troubleshooting when the movement of the moving part 203 is obstructed within the moving groove 201. For example, when the moving part 203 cannot move, it is easy to observe whether the moving part 203 is stuck in the moving groove 201, thus ensuring the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100. In another example, the moving groove 201 can be a blind groove, meaning that the moving groove 201 is recessed from the side wall of the receiving cavity 205 in a direction away from the center of the receiving cavity 205, but the moving groove 201 does not penetrate the side wall of the receiving cavity 205. This reduces the possibility of the moving part 203 falling out of the moving groove 201, ensuring the normal operation of the cleaning equipment 100.

[0164] In this embodiment, the moving groove 201 includes an inclined sidewall 2011, which abuts against the moving member 203. The inclined sidewall 2011 is inclined relative to the bottom surface of the cleaning component 21. The bottom surface of the cleaning component 21 can be the side of the cleaning component 21 opposite to the surface to be cleaned when the cleaning device 100 is supported on the surface to be cleaned. Specifically, in some embodiments, the moving groove 201 can be recessed from the sidewall of the receiving cavity 205 in a direction away from the center of the receiving cavity 205. Both sidewalls of the moving groove 201 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 can be inclined sidewalls 2011. The inclined sidewalls 2011 facilitate the moving member 203 to apply force to the second mounting member 253, thereby ensuring the stability of the relative movement of the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253.

[0165] In this embodiment, the angle between the inclined sidewall 2011 and the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 is an acute angle. Specifically, in some embodiments, the angle between the inclined sidewall 2011 and the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 can be in the range of (0°, 90°), that is, the angle between the inclined sidewall 2011 and the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 can be any one value or any value between any two of 5°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, 60°, 70°, 80° and 85°.

[0166] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the first mounting member 251 moves relative to the second mounting member 253, since the angle between the inclined sidewall 2011 and the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 is an acute angle, the inclined sidewall 2011 cooperates with the moving member 203, and the moving member 203 can move along the inclined sidewall 2011 relative to the second mounting member 253 along the width direction (X1 / X2) and the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, so as to drive the second mounting member 253 and the body 211 together to move relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) and the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. Thus, the cleaning assembly 21 can move relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) and the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100.

[0167] In summary, in this embodiment, along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the first limiting member 219, and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the second mounting member 253. When the cleaning component 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 is in a compressed state. Thus, when the cleaning component 21 contacts the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 can apply a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21, thereby preventing the cleaning component 21 from applying excessive pressure to the surface to be cleaned, which could affect the normal movement of the cleaning device 100. This ensures the stability and reliability of the cleaning device 100 and improves the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0168] Specific Embodiment Two of this Application

[0169] Please see Figure 7 and Figure 8In Embodiment 2, the body 10 and the mounting assembly 25 are connected by an elastic member 231. Specifically, an elastic member 231 is provided between the body 10 and the first mounting member 251. The body 10 has a second mounting hole 11. The first mounting member 251 includes a second guide member 2515, which passes through the second mounting hole 11. A second limiting member 2516 is provided at the end of the second guide member 2515 away from the surface to be cleaned. The second limiting member 2516 is connected to the first mounting member 251 and is used to limit the extreme movement position of the first mounting member 251 relative to the body 10. Along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the second limiting member 2516, and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the body 10. When the cleaning module 20 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 is in a compressed state. In this embodiment, the first mounting member 251 is movably connected to the body 10, that is, the first mounting member 251 can move relative to the body 10 to realize the movable connection of the cleaning component 21 relative to the body 10.

[0170] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the cleaning module 20 is not subjected to external force (such as the force exerted by the power module 30 on the cleaning module 20), there will be no relative movement between the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253. Furthermore, since the upper end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the second limiting member 2516 and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the body 10, the lower end of the elastic member 231 can serve as a fixed end. Thus, when the elastic member 231 is in a compressed state, the elastic member 231 can exert a vertically upward force on the cleaning component 21 through the second limiting member 2516, thereby preventing the cleaning component 21 from applying excessive pressure to the surface to be cleaned when it comes into contact with the surface to be cleaned.

[0171] In this embodiment, the second guide member 2515 is at least partially disposed in the second mounting hole 11. Therefore, the second mounting hole 11 reduces the possibility of interference between the second guide member 2515 and other structural components during the assembly of the cleaning equipment 100, thereby ensuring the normal assembly of the cleaning equipment 100. Furthermore, the second limiting member 2516 is disposed at the end of the second guide member 2515 furthest from the surface to be cleaned. Therefore, the second limiting member 2516 can limit the extreme movement position of the first mounting member 251 relative to the body 10 in the height direction Z of the cleaning equipment 100. That is, the second limiting member 2516 can limit the extreme movement position of the cleaning component 21 relative to the body 10 in the height direction Z of the cleaning equipment 100, preventing unrestricted movement of the cleaning component 21 from causing collision damage between the cleaning component 21 and the body 10 or external structures. This improves the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100 and extends the service life of the cleaning component 21.

[0172] In some examples, the second guide member 2515 and the second limiting member 2516 can be integrally formed, that is, the second guide member 2515 and the second limiting member 2516 are a single structure, thereby improving the connection strength between the second guide member 2515 and the second limiting member 2516, and improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100. For example, the first mounting member 251 may include a bolt, with the shank of the bolt serving as the second guide member 2515 and the head of the bolt serving as the second limiting member 2516. In other examples, the second guide member 2515 and the second limiting member 2516 can be joined together using a non-removable connection or a detachable connection. The non-removable connection includes, but is not limited to, bonding or welding; the detachable connection includes, but is not limited to, snap-fit ​​connections or threaded connections.

[0173] In this embodiment, the elastic element 231 can be a compression spring. Along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the compression spring is connected to the second limiting member 2516, and the lower end is connected to the body 10. When the cleaning module 20 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the compression spring is in a compressed state to provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21. The compression spring can be sleeved on the second guide member 2515. Therefore, the second guide member 2515 can limit the deformation of the compression spring along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. That is, the second guide member 2515 can limit the deformation direction (compression direction) of the compression spring along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, preventing the compression spring from deforming in other directions (such as the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100), thus preventing the compression spring from failing to provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning device 100. Of course, in Figure 7 and Figure 8 In the embodiment shown, the elastic element 231 can also be other elastic elements such as rubber or sheet metal.

[0174] Please continue reading. Figure 7 and Figure 8 In this embodiment, the first mounting member 251 is provided with a mating member 255. The mating member 255 protrudes upward along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. The cleaning component 21 is mounted on the body 10 through the cooperation of the second mounting member 253 and the first mounting member 251. The second mounting member 253 can move along the mating member 255 to be supported on the mating member 255, so that the cleaning component 21 can move relative to the body 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100.

[0175] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the first mounting member 251 includes a guide rail 2511, the mating member 255 is disposed in the guide rail 2511. The guide rail 2511 includes a guide groove 2512 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. The guide groove 2512 includes a first sidewall 2513 and a second sidewall 2514 facing away from each other. The first sidewall 2513 is closer to the surface to be cleaned than the second sidewall 2514. The mating member 255 is disposed on the first sidewall 2513 and can protrude upward from the first sidewall 2513 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100. When the second mounting member 253 moves relative to the first mounting member 251 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 until the second mounting member 253 abuts against the mating member 255, the second mounting member 253 can move along the mating member 255 to be supported on the mating member 255. That is, the second mounting member 253 can move along the mating member 255 to the top of the mating member 255 (the side of the mating member 255 opposite to the second sidewall 2514). Thus, the second mounting member 253 can drive the cleaning assembly 21 to move relative to the body 10 along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, thereby switching the cleaning module 20 between the first state and the third state, or between the second state and the third state.

[0176] For example, referring to Figure 16(a), “A” in Figure 16(a) indicates the relative position between the second mounting member 253 and the mating member 255 when the cleaning module 20 is in the first state; “B” in Figure 16(a) indicates the relative position between the second mounting member 253 and the mating member 255 when the cleaning module 20 is in the second state; and “C” in Figure 16(a) indicates the relative position between the second mounting member 253 and the mating member 255 when the cleaning module 20 is in the third state. In some embodiments, when the cleaning module 20 is in the first state, the power module 30 can drive the second mounting member 253 to move in the opposite direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 relative to the body 10, so that the second mounting member 253 moves from point A to point B, thereby enabling the cleaning module 20 to switch from the first state to the second state; or the power module 30 can drive the second mounting member 253 to move in the forward direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 relative to the body 10, so that the second mounting member 253 moves from point A to point C, thereby enabling the cleaning module 20 to switch from the first state to the third state.

[0177] Referring to Figure 16(b), in some embodiments, “A” in Figure 16(b) indicates the relative position between the second mounting member 253 and the mating member 255 when the cleaning module 20 is in the first state; “B” in Figure 16(b) indicates the relative position between the second mounting member 253 and the mating member 255 when the cleaning module 20 is in the second state; and “C” in Figure 16(b) indicates the relative position between the second mounting member 253 and the mating member 255 when the cleaning module 20 is in the third state. When the cleaning module 20 is in the first state, the power module 30 can drive the cleaning module 20 to move X2 in the opposite direction (X1 / X2) of the width direction of the cleaning device 100 relative to the body 10 until the second mounting member 253 engages with the mating member 255, so that the cleaning module 20 directly switches from the first state to the third state, and the second mounting member 253 of the cleaning module 20 moves from position A to position C; or the power module 30 can drive the cleaning module 20 to move X2 in the opposite direction (X1 / X2) of the width direction of the cleaning device 100 relative to the body 10 until the second mounting member 253 engages with the mating member 255, so that the cleaning module 20 switches from the first state to the third state, and then continues to drive the cleaning module 20 to move X2 in the opposite direction (X1 / X2) of the width direction of the cleaning device 100, so that the cleaning module 20 switches from the third state to the second state, and the second mounting member 253 of the cleaning module 20 moves from position C to position B. When the cleaning module 20 is in the second state, the power module 30 can drive the cleaning module 20 to move relative to the body along the positive direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 by X1 until the second mounting member 253 engages with the mating member 255, so that the cleaning module 20 can directly switch from the second state to the third state, and the second mounting member 253 of the cleaning module 20 moves from position B to position C; or the power module 30 can drive the cleaning module 20 to move relative to the body 10 along the positive direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 by X1 until the second mounting member 253 engages with the mating member 255, so that the cleaning module 20 switches from the second state to the third state, and then continues to drive the cleaning module 20 to move along the positive direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 by X1, so that the cleaning module 20 switches from the third state to the first state, and the second mounting member 253 of the cleaning module 20 moves from position C to position A.

[0178] In some embodiments, the mating component 255 may be integrally formed with the guide rail 2511, that is, the mating component 255 and the guide rail 2511 are a single structure. This can improve the bonding strength between the mating component 255 and the guide rail 2511, preventing the mating component 255 from falling off the guide rail 2511 when the second mounting component 253 is engaged with the mating component 255, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning equipment 100. In other embodiments, the mating component 255 and the guide rail 2511 may be connected by a non-removable connection or a detachable connection. The non-removable connection includes, but is not limited to, bonding or welding; the detachable connection includes, but is not limited to, snap-fit ​​connection or threaded connection.

[0179] In some embodiments, the mating member 255 includes a protrusion. The protrusion has a first surface 2551 and a second surface 2553 facing away from each other in the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100. The first surface 2551 and / or the second surface 2553 are inclined and are used to guide the second mounting member 253 to move onto the protrusion. The inclined arrangement of the first surface 2551 and / or the second surface 2553 can improve the stability of the movement of the second mounting member 253 along the mating member 255, allowing the second mounting member 253 to gradually climb onto the mating member 255, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the cleaning component 21 relative to the body 10. On the other hand, compared to when the first surface 2551 and / or the second surface 2553 are not inclined, the power consumption required for the power module 30 to drive the second mounting member 253 to move along the mating member 255 in this embodiment is smaller. Furthermore, the inclined arrangement of the first surface 2551 and / or the second surface 2553 can prevent jamming when the second mounting member 253 abuts against the mating member 255, which could lead to malfunctions such as burnout of the power module 30. This improves the safety of the power module 30 and extends its service life. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the second mounting member 253 may be a pulley or a roller.

[0180] Specifically, in some embodiments, the direction from the first surface 2551 to the second surface 2553 is the same as the positive direction X1 of the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100. When the first surface 2551 is inclined (as shown in FIG. 16(a)), the distance between the first surface 2551 and the surface to be cleaned in the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100 gradually increases along the positive direction X1 of the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100; when the second surface 2553 is inclined (as shown in FIG. 16(b)), the distance between the second surface 2553 and the surface to be cleaned in the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100 gradually decreases along the positive direction X1 of the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100. The protrusion can extend from the first sidewall 2513 toward the second sidewall 2514. When the second mounting member 253 moves relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 to abut against the first surface 2551 or the second surface 2553, the second mounting member 253 can move along the first surface 2551 or the second surface 2553 toward the top of the protrusion (the side of the protrusion opposite to the second sidewall 2514) until the second mounting member 253 can be supported on the top of the protrusion, thereby enabling the cleaning assembly 21 to switch from the first state to the third state, or enabling the cleaning assembly 21 to switch from the second state to the third state.

[0181] In some embodiments, the longitudinal section of the mating member 255 cut by a plane is trapezoidal, the plane being formed by a straight line extending along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 and a straight line extending along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper side of the trapezoid corresponding to the surface of the mating member 255 for supporting the second mounting member 253, and the upper side of the trapezoid being smaller than the lower side of the trapezoid.

[0182] Specifically, in some embodiments, the lower edge of the trapezoid is connected to the first sidewall 2513. When the second mounting member 253 moves relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 to abut against the side of the trapezoid, the second mounting member 253 can move along the side of the trapezoid to be supported on the upper edge of the trapezoid, thereby enabling the cleaning assembly 21 to move relative to the body 10.

[0183] In other embodiments, the mating member 255 includes a protrusion having opposing first surfaces 2551 and second surfaces 2553 in the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100, the first surface 2551 and / or the second surface 2553 being arc-shaped. Specifically, in some embodiments, the protrusion may extend from the first sidewall 2513 toward the second sidewall 2514. When the second mounting member 253 moves relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 to abut against the first surface 2551 or the second surface 2553, the second mounting member 253 can move along the first surface 2551 or the second surface 2553 toward the top of the protrusion (the side of the protrusion opposite to the second sidewall 2514) until the second mounting member 253 can be supported on the top of the protrusion, thereby allowing the cleaning assembly 21 to move relative to the body 10.

[0184] For example, the mating part 255 can be spherical or hemispherical, and the second mounting part 253 can also be spherical or hemispherical. When the second mounting part 253 moves on the mating part 255, the outer convex arc surface of the second mounting part 253 contacts the outer convex arc surface of the mating part 255. Guided by the outer convex arc surface of the mating part 255, the second mounting part 253 can climb to the top of the mating part 255, thereby enabling the cleaning module 20 to switch between the first state and the third state, or between the second state and the third state.

[0185] The structural descriptions of the second mounting member 253 and the mating member 255 in the above embodiments of this application are merely examples, and this application does not impose any special limitations. As long as the mating member 255 protrudes in a direction away from the surface to be cleaned, and the mating member 255 has a guiding surface that guides the second mounting member 253 to climb, it is acceptable.

[0186] In summary, in this embodiment, along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the second limiting member 2516, and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the body 10. When the cleaning component 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 is in a compressed state. Thus, when the cleaning component 21 contacts the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 can apply a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21, thereby preventing the cleaning component 21 from applying excessive pressure to the surface to be cleaned, which could affect the normal movement of the cleaning device 100. This ensures the stability and reliability of the cleaning device 100 and improves the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0187] Specific Embodiment Three of this Application

[0188] Please refer to Figures 9 and 10. In Embodiment 3, an elastic member 231 is provided between the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253. The first mounting member 251 is fixedly connected to the body 10, and the second mounting member 253 is disposed on the cleaning assembly 21 on the side opposite to the first mounting member 251. Along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the second mounting member 253, and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the first mounting member 251. When the cleaning module 20 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 is in a compressed state.

[0189] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the cleaning module 20 is not subjected to external force (such as the force exerted by the power module 30 on the cleaning module 20), there will be no relative movement between the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253. Furthermore, since the upper end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the second mounting member 253 and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the first mounting member 251, and the first mounting member 251 is fixedly connected to the body 10, the lower end of the elastic member 231 can serve as a fixed end. Thus, when the elastic member 231 is in a compressed state, the elastic member 231 can exert a vertically upward force on the cleaning component 21 through the second mounting member 253, thereby preventing the cleaning component 21 from applying excessive pressure to the surface to be cleaned when it comes into contact with the surface to be cleaned.

[0190] Referring to Figures 10(a) and 10(b), in one embodiment, the elastic member 231 may be a hollow wheel. Along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the hollow wheel is connected to the second mounting member 253, and the lower end of the hollow wheel is connected to (aggregate with) the first mounting member 251. When the cleaning module 20 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the hollow wheel is in a compressed state to provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21. Specifically, in some embodiments, the first mounting member 251 includes a guide rail 2511 disposed on the body 10, the length direction of the guide rail 2511 being parallel to the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100. The second mounting member 253 may include a protrusion, and the hollow wheel is rotatably disposed on the protrusion and located in the first mounting member 251. When the cleaning module 20 is subjected to external force, the second mounting member 253 can move relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100 within the first mounting member 251. In other words, the first mounting member 251 can guide the second mounting member 253 to move relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100, so that the cleaning component 21 can move relative to the body 10 along the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the guide rail 2511 is fixedly connected to the body 10. The fixed connection method includes, but is not limited to, detachable connection or non-detachable connection. Detachable connection methods include, but are not limited to, threaded connection or snap-fit ​​connection, etc., and non-detachable connection methods include, but are not limited to, bonding or welding, etc.

[0191] Referring to Figures 9(a) and 9(b), in another embodiment, the elastic member 231 may be a spring steel sheet. Along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the spring steel sheet is connected to the second mounting member 253, and the lower end of the spring steel sheet is connected to (aggregate with) the first mounting member 251. When the cleaning module 20 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the spring steel sheet is in a compressed and deformed state to provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning assembly 21. Specifically, in some embodiments, the first mounting member 251 includes a guide rail 2511 disposed on the body 10, the length direction of the guide rail 2511 being parallel to the width direction (X1 / X2) of the cleaning device 100. The second mounting member 253 may include a protrusion, one end of the spring steel sheet being connected to the protrusion, and the other end abutting against the guide rail 2511.

[0192] In summary, in this embodiment, along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the second mounting member 253, and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the first mounting member 251. When the cleaning component 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 is in a compressed state. Therefore, when the cleaning component 21 contacts the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 can apply a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21, thereby preventing the cleaning component 21 from applying excessive pressure to the surface to be cleaned, which could affect the normal movement of the cleaning device 100. This ensures the stability and reliability of the cleaning device 100 and improves the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0193] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the structure of the first mounting member 251 and the mating member 255 can be the same as in Embodiment 2. When the elastic member 231 is a hollow wheel or a spring steel sheet, the elastic member 231 itself can have the function of supporting the cleaning component 21. Therefore, the elastic member 231 can slide in the guide rail type first mounting member 251, and when the cleaning component 21 needs to be lifted along the height direction Z, the elastic member 231 can move to the mating member 255 supported on the first mounting member 251.

[0194] Specific Embodiment Four of this Application

[0195] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 11 In Embodiment 4, an elastic member 231 is provided between the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253. Along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the first mounting member 251, and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the second mounting member 253. When the cleaning module 20 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 is in a stretched state.

[0196] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the cleaning module 20 (e.g., the force exerted by the power module 30 on the cleaning module 20) is not subjected to external force, there will be no relative movement between the first mounting member 251 and the second mounting member 253. Furthermore, since the upper end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the first mounting member 251 and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the second mounting member 253, and the first mounting member 251 is fixedly connected to the body 10, the upper end of the elastic member 231 can serve as a fixed end. Thus, when the elastic member 231 is in a stretched state, the elastic member 231 can exert a vertically upward force on the cleaning component 21 through the second mounting member 253, thereby preventing the cleaning component 21 from applying excessive pressure to the surface to be cleaned when it comes into contact with the surface to be cleaned.

[0197] In this embodiment, the elastic element 231 may be a tension spring. Along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the tension spring is connected to the first mounting member 251, and the lower end of the tension spring is connected to the second mounting member 253. When the cleaning module 20 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the tension spring is in a stretched state to provide a vertically upward force to the cleaning assembly 21. Specifically, in some embodiments, the first mounting member 251 includes a guide rod, and the second mounting member 253 may include a protrusion. The opposite ends of the tension spring are respectively connected to the guide rod and the protrusion.

[0198] In summary, in this embodiment, along the height direction Z of the cleaning device 100, the upper end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the first mounting member 251, and the lower end of the elastic member 231 is connected to the second mounting member 253. When the cleaning component 21 is not in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 is in a stretched state. Thus, when the cleaning component 21 contacts the surface to be cleaned, the elastic member 231 can apply a vertically upward force to the cleaning component 21, thereby preventing the cleaning component 21 from applying excessive pressure to the surface to be cleaned, which could affect the normal movement of the cleaning device 100. This ensures the stability and reliability of the cleaning device 100 and improves the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 100.
