[0054] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0055] The following is combined with Figures 1-15 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0056] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in one aspect, a cleaning base station is provided for placing cleaning equipment 100, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the cleaning device 100 is equipped with a roller brush 110 and a flip-up roller brush cover 120.

[0057] The clean base station includes: base station body 210, support structure 220 and spray device 230.

[0058] The lifting structure 220 is movably connected to the base station body 210. The lifting structure 220 can be driven to rotate the roller brush cover 120, so that a cleaning space is formed between the roller brush cover 120 and the roller brush 110. The spraying device 230 is located on the base station body 210 and is positioned towards the cleaning space. The spraying device 230 can spray water into the cleaning space after the roller brush cover 120 is rotated to clean the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120.

[0059] In the above embodiment, the roller brush cover 120 of the cleaning device 100 is flipped by the driving action of the lifting structure 220 on the cleaning base station 200, forming a sufficiently large cleaning space between the roller brush cover 120 and the roller brush 110. Water is sprayed towards the cleaning space by the spray device 230 provided on the cleaning base station 200 to clean the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120, thereby ensuring that the dirt-laden areas in the inner wall area of ​​the roller brush cover 120 are effectively cleaned and ensuring the working performance of the cleaning device.

[0060] Specifically, the cleaning base station 200, which houses the roller brush 110 and roller brush cover 120 of the cleaning equipment 100, is located at the front of the entire unit. Correspondingly, the water outlet of the spray device 230 on the cleaning base station 200 is also located at the front of the entire unit, so that after the cleaning equipment 100 is placed on the cleaning base station 200, the positions of the roller brush 110 and roller brush cover 120 correspond to the positions of the water outlet of the spray device 230. The lifting structure 220 of the cleaning base station 200 is located below the roller brush cover 120. By driving the movable end of the lifting structure 220 through the driving device, the lifting structure 220 causes the outer side of the roller brush cover 120 to be lifted, thereby realizing the flipping operation of the roller brush cover 120.

[0061] Furthermore, this embodiment does not limit the specific structural form of the lifting structure 220. As one implementation, the lifting structure 220 is configured as a telescopic rod with the movable end facing outwards, and the outer side of the roller brush cover 120 is lifted by the extension of the telescopic rod; the lifting structure 220 is configured as a frame that conforms to the outer contour of the roller brush cover 120, and the outer side of the roller brush cover 120 is lifted by the driven movement of the frame.

[0062] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the spraying device 230 includes a plurality of spray nozzles 231, which are distributed along the length of the roller brush cover 120, and the spraying area of ​​the plurality of spray nozzles 231 covers the roller brush cover 120.

[0063] In the above embodiment, a plurality of spray nozzles 231 of the spray device 230 are distributed along the length of the roller brush cover 120, so that the spraying area of ​​the spray nozzles 231 covers the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120, thereby ensuring that the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120 is thoroughly cleaned.

[0064] Specifically, after the roller brush cover 120 is driven to flip over, a cleaning space is formed between the roller brush cover 120 and the roller brush 110. The open space is larger on the side near the water spray nozzle 231. Several water spray nozzles 231 of the spray device 230 are located at the front of the cleaning base station 200 and spray water into the cleaning space along the side with the larger open space, thereby cleaning the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120. Several water spray nozzles 231 distributed along the length of the roller brush cover 120 can ensure that every part of the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120 is thoroughly cleaned.

[0065] Furthermore, the spray nozzle 231 is designed to be rotatable and rotates according to the flipping angle of the roller brush cover 120. After the roller brush cover 120 is driven to flip, there may be cases where it does not flip completely. In this case, the spray nozzle 231, designed with a rotatable angle, can adjust the spray angle accordingly, thereby increasing the elevation angle to ensure efficient cleaning of the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120. In addition, the rotatable spray nozzle 231 can also clean more areas of the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120, improving the cleaning effect.

[0066] Furthermore, in this embodiment, five water nozzles 231 are evenly spaced; of course, more or fewer water nozzles 231 can be provided depending on the actual situation.

[0067] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the sprinkler device 230 also includes a water supply tank 232 located on the base station body 210. The water supply tank 232 is connected to the water nozzle 231 through a water supply pipe 233 and is used to supply water to the water nozzle 231.

[0068] In the above embodiment, the water supply tank 232 and the water supply pipe 233 are used to supply water to the spray nozzle 231, so that the spray nozzle 231 can spray water to clean the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120.

[0069] Specifically, such as Figure 5 , Figure 8 As shown, the cleaning base station 200 includes a base station body 210, a water supply tank 232 located on the base station body 210, and a water nozzle 231 connected to the water supply pipe 233 to supply water to the water nozzle 231.

[0070] As an alternative implementation method, such as Figure 7 As shown, a water supply tank 232 is not installed in the cleaning base station 200, and the water supply pipe 233 is connected to an external water source to supply water to the spray nozzle 231.

[0071] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, a water pump 234 is installed in the water supply pipe 233. The water pump 234 pumps water to the spray nozzle 231 so that the water sprayed from the spray nozzle 231 is sprayed at high pressure, thereby thoroughly cleaning the roller brush cover 120 and removing dirt and bacteria from the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120.

[0072] In some embodiments, such as Figure 9 , Figure 10 As shown, the lifting structure 220 includes a lifting arm 221 and connecting parts 222 on both sides of the lifting arm 221. The two connecting parts 222 are rotatably connected to the base station body 210 and can drive the lifting arm 221 to rotate and lift so as to drive the roller brush cover 120 to flip.

[0073] In the above embodiment, the rotation of the two connecting parts 222 that are rotatably connected to the base station body 210 drives the lifting arm 221 to be lifted, thereby enabling the lifting arm 221 of the lifting structure 220 to lift the outer side of the roller brush cover 120 for flipping.

[0074] Specifically, the length of the lifting arm 221 is equivalent to the length of the long side of the roller brush cover 120. The two connecting parts 222 are rotated by the driving structure, which drives the lifting arm 221 to lift the long side of the roller brush cover 120, thereby realizing the flipping operation of the roller brush cover 120.

[0075] Furthermore, the drive structure of the connecting part 222 can be a push rod motor or a linkage mechanism, or a pneumatic drive mechanism, a hydraulic drive mechanism, etc.

[0076] In some embodiments, such as Figure 9 , Figure 10 As shown, the lifting structure 220 also includes a transmission swing arm 223 connected to the connecting part 222, and the transmission swing arm 223 is provided with an arc-shaped rack 224; the cleaning base station also includes a drive structure 240 provided on the base station body 210, and the power output end of the drive structure 240 is provided with a gear 241, which is driven to cooperate with the arc-shaped rack 224 to drive the connecting part 222 to rotate relative to the base station body 210.

[0077] In the above embodiment, the rotation drive of the connecting part 222 is realized by the gear 241 on the drive structure 240 and the gear rack 224 on the transmission swing arm 223 through gear rack transmission cooperation. The transmission is simple and the structure is highly stable.

[0078] Specifically, a transmission swing arm 223 is fixedly connected to one of the connecting parts 222, and an arc-shaped rack 224 is provided at the bottom of the transmission swing arm 223. The gear 241 at the output end of the drive structure 240 is engaged with the arc-shaped rack 224 to drive the transmission swing arm 223 to swing in an arc shape, thereby driving the connecting part 222 to rotate.

[0079] Furthermore, the drive structure 240 is configured as a motor.

[0080] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the cleaning base station also includes a cleaning tank 250 disposed on the base station body 210. The cleaning tank 250 is used to place the roller brush 110 and is located below the water outlet of the spray device 230. The cleaning tank 250 can store the water sprayed by the spray device 230 for the roller brush 110 to clean.

[0081] In the above embodiment, the cleaning tank 250 located below the spray nozzle 231 is used to store the water sprayed from the spray nozzle 231 and reuse the water that has been used to clean the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120 for the initial cleaning operation of the roller brush 110, thus saving water.

[0082] Specifically, the cleaning tank 250 is located below the water spray nozzle 231 and also below the roller brush 110. After the water sprayed from the water spray nozzle 231 cleans the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120, the water naturally falls into the cleaning tank 250 below for temporary storage. Then, the cleaning equipment 100 is started to make the roller brush 110 rotate for self-cleaning, and the water temporarily stored in the cleaning tank 250 is used to perform preliminary self-cleaning of the roller brush 110.

[0083] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the cleaning equipment 100 also includes a suction pipe 150 and a wastewater tank 160 connected to the suction pipe. The suction pipe 150 is positioned corresponding to the cleaning tank 250 to suck the wastewater in the cleaning tank 250 into the wastewater tank 160. The suction pipe 150 and wastewater tank 160 in the cleaning equipment 100 are used to promptly drain the wastewater from the cleaning tank 250, facilitating the next cleaning operation of the roller brush cover 120 and the subsequent self-cleaning operation of the roller brush 110. More specifically, the cleaning equipment 100 includes a floor brush section and a body section. The floor brush section is equipped with a roller brush 110 and a roller brush cover 120. The suction pipe 150 is located behind the roller brush 110 and extends from the floor brush section towards the body section. The wastewater tank 160 is located in the body section. After the suction pipe 150 sucks the wastewater from the cleaning tank 250 into the wastewater tank 160, the user only needs to empty the wastewater tank 160 to drain the wastewater.

[0084] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the water outlet of the spray device 230 is located in front of the cleaning tank 250, and the lifting structure 220 has a raised state and a lowered state; when the lifting structure 220 is in the raised state, it can flip the roller brush cover 120, and when the lifting structure 220 is in the lowered state, it can cover the water outlet of the spray device 230.

[0085] In the above embodiment, the water outlet of the spray device 230 is located on the front side of the cleaning tank 250 and is positioned corresponding to the position of the lifting structure 220. When the lifting structure 220 falls, it covers the water outlet of the spray device 230 to prevent the spray device 230 from being exposed, thus achieving the function of concealing unsightly features.

[0086] Specifically, the outlet of the spray device 230 is the nozzle of the spray nozzle 231, and several spray nozzles 231 are distributed in a straight line on the front side of the nozzle cleaning tank 250. When the lifting structure 220 is lifted, it causes the roller brush cover 120 to flip and expose the spray nozzles 231. When the lifting structure 220 falls, it covers the outlet of the spray device 230.

[0087] In this embodiment, as Figure 11 , Figure 12 As shown, the lifting structure 220 and the trough-shaped component with the cleaning tank 250 together form the installation assembly 270, which can be directly installed in the reserved position of the cleaning base station 200. The front wall panel of the trough-shaped component where the cleaning tank 250 is located has a hollow structure, in which the water spray nozzle 231 can be installed. The width of the hollow structure is approximately equal to the width of the lifting arm 221 of the lifting structure 220, so that the hollow structure can be covered to cover the water spray nozzle 231 when the lifting arm 221 is lowered.

[0088] Furthermore, the lifting structure 220 is connected to the grooved member via two first rotating shafts 225 located at the two connecting parts 222 respectively; the side of the lifting arm 221 on the lifting structure 220 is also provided with a support platform 2211, which is used to limit the edge of the roller brush cover 120 when the roller brush cover 120 is lifted.

[0089] Furthermore, a sealing strip 251 is provided on the circumference of the cleaning tank 250. After the roller brush 110 falls into the cleaning tank 250, it presses the sealing strip 251 to prevent water in the cleaning tank 250 from overflowing to the outside of the cleaning tank 250.

[0090] According to an embodiment of the present invention, another aspect, a cleaning system is also provided, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, it includes: the cleaning base station 200 and the cleaning device 100 of the above embodiments.

[0091] The cleaning device 100 can be placed on the cleaning base station 200. The cleaning device 100 includes a device body 140 and a roller brush 110 and a roller brush cover 120 disposed on the device body 140. The roller brush cover 120 is disposed above the roller brush 110 and is rotatably connected to the device body 140. The roller brush cover 120 is positioned corresponding to the lifting structure 220 of the cleaning base station 200 so that the lifting structure 220 can be driven to rotate the roller brush cover 120.

[0092] In the above embodiment, the cleaning system is designed to work in conjunction with the cleaning equipment 100 and the cleaning base station 200. The roller brush cover 120 of the cleaning equipment 100 is flipped by the driving action of the lifting structure 220 on the cleaning base station 200, forming a sufficiently large cleaning space between the roller brush cover 120 and the roller brush 110. The spray device 230 provided on the cleaning base station 200 sprays water toward the cleaning space to clean the inner wall of the roller brush cover 120, thereby ensuring that the dirt-laden areas in the inner wall area of ​​the roller brush cover 120 are effectively cleaned and ensuring the working performance of the cleaning equipment.

[0093] Specifically, the cleaning equipment 100 can be a floor scrubber, vacuum cleaner, mite remover, or other device with a roller brush 110. The cleaning base station 200 serves as a storage device for the cleaning equipment 100, and can charge and self-clean the equipment when it is not in use.

The drive structure 240 closes, and at the same time, the water nozzle 231, which was previously covered at the bottom of the transmission arm 223, is exposed. The water pump 234 starts, and clean water is guided through the water pipe 233 to the water nozzle 231 and sprayed out under high pressure. The inner wall of the roller brush cover 120 is cleaned. At the same time, the main unit of the cleaning equipment 100 starts the sewage recovery program, and the sewage in the cleaning tank 250 is sucked into the sewage tank 160 through the suction pipe 150. When the self-cleaning program of the roller brush cover 120 reaches the preset rinsing time, the water pump 234 shuts off the spray device 230 to stop the water flow, the drive structure 240 restarts and drives the gear 241 to reverse. The gear 241 and the arc rack 224 are engaged in transmission, so that the connecting part 222 drives the transmission swing arm 223 to fall down and re-cover the spray nozzle 231. The roller brush cover 120 is reset to the initial position under the action of the reset member 130.
