[0002] The cleaning base station works in conjunction with cleaning equipment. It serves as a docking station for the equipment, allowing it to charge, rehydrate, wash, and dry the cleaning cloths. The cleaning base station includes a cleaning module that washes the cleaning cloths. This cleaning module typically uses a rotating roller brush to clean the cloths, requiring a drive unit to rotate the brush. This results in a complex module structure and high contact resistance between the brush and the cloth, increasing the current required for the module to move along the base station's guide rails.

[0076] Please see Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the cleaning device 100 provided in this application embodiment, located above the base 2 and the cleaning module 1. For ease of description, the length direction of the base 2 is defined as the X-axis direction, the width direction of the base 2 is defined as the Y-axis direction, and the height direction of the base 2 is defined as the Z-axis direction. The X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis directions are mutually perpendicular.

[0077] This application provides a cleaning base station, which works in conjunction with a cleaning device 100. The cleaning base station is a docking station for the cleaning device 100 and is used to perform preset operations for the cleaning device 100, such as charging the cleaning device 100, collecting dust from the dust box of the cleaning device 100, replenishing water to the cleaning device 100, and cleaning the cleaning components (such as a rag) of the cleaning device 100.

[0078] The cleaning equipment 100 is used to clean its cleaning components. Specifically, the cleaning base station provided in this embodiment includes a base 2 and a cleaning module 1. A guide rail structure 3 is provided on the base 2, and the cleaning module 1 is supported on the base 2 by the guide rail structure 3.

[0079] Please see Figure 1 The diagram illustrates the guide rail structure 3 on the base 2, with the guide rail structure 3 extending along... Figure 1 The direction of the middle arrow X, that is, the extension direction of the guide rail structure 3, is along the length direction of the base 2. When the cleaning module 1 moves along the guide rail structure 3, that is... Figure 1 When moving back and forth in the X direction, the cleaning module 1 can clean the cleaning elements at the bottom of the cleaning device 100.

[0080] Please see Figures 2-5 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the base 2 and the cleaning module 1 provided in the embodiments of this application; Figure 3 This is another structural schematic diagram of the base 2 and cleaning module 1 provided in the embodiments of this application; Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the cleaning module 1 provided in the embodiments of this application; please refer to... Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the driving device 12 and the guide rail structure 3 provided in the embodiments of this application.

[0081] Please see Figure 4 The cleaning module 1 provided in this application embodiment includes a support frame 11, a drive device 12, and a first cleaning part 13. The drive device 12 is connected to the support frame 11, and the first cleaning part 13 is supported on the support frame 11.

[0082] Drive unit 12 is used to move support frame 11 along guide rail structure 3. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2The diagram illustrates that guide rail structures 3 are respectively installed at opposite ends along the width direction of the base 2. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 The diagrams show the different positions of the cleaning module 1 on the guide rail structure 3.

[0083] In one example, the drive unit 12 is used to drive the support frame 11 to move back and forth.

[0084] The first cleaning unit 13 is used to clean the cleaning elements on the cleaning equipment 100. In this embodiment, the first cleaning unit 13 is fixedly mounted on the support frame 11 relative to the support frame 11. The support frame 11 is moved along the guide rail structure 3 by the driving device 12, so that the first cleaning unit 13 can clean the cleaning elements on the cleaning equipment 100.

[0085] In existing related technologies, cleaning modules typically use rotating roller brushes to clean the cleaning elements of cleaning equipment, which requires a drive device 12 to drive the roller brush to rotate, making the structure of the cleaning module complex. However, in the embodiment of this application, the first cleaning part 13 is fixedly mounted on the support frame 11 relative to the support frame 11, eliminating the need for a drive device 12 to drive the first cleaning part 13 to move, thus simplifying the structure of the cleaning module 1.

[0086] Regarding the connection between the cleaning module 1 and the guide rail structure 3, in one embodiment, the drive device 12 includes a drive shaft and a drive gear 121. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 4 The diagram illustrates the transmission gear 121.

[0087] Both ends of the drive shaft pass through the support frame 11 along the length of the cleaning module 1, and the drive shaft is supported on the support frame 11 by bearings. The drive shaft is equipped with drive gears 121, and the two drive gears 121 are close to the two ends of the drive shaft respectively. The two drive gears 121 mesh with the spur teeth 33 on the corresponding guide rail structure 3 respectively. When the drive shaft drives the drive gears 121 to rotate, the drive gears 121 move along the guide rail structure 3 while rotating.

[0088] In one example, see Figure 4 The drive device 12 also includes support wheels 122. Support wheels 122 are respectively provided at opposite ends of the support frame 11 along its length, and the support wheels 122 are respectively supported on corresponding guide rail structures 3. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 5 This illustrates that the support wheel 122 is supported on the guide rail structure 3.

[0089] In one example, the guide rail structure 3 has a guide groove 31 extending along the length of the base 2. The opening of the guide groove 31 faces the support frame 11. The support wheel 122 extends into the guide groove 31 through the opening and rests on the bottom surface 32 of the guide groove 31. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 5 A straight tooth 33 is formed on the top surface of the guide groove 31. The straight tooth 33 is located at the groove opening and meshes with the transmission gear 121 of the drive device 12.

[0090] In one example, the straight tooth 33 and the groove bottom surface 32 are offset along the width direction of the base 2, that is, the entire projection of the straight tooth 33 onto the base 2 falls on the base 2 and does not fall on the groove bottom surface 32, so as to avoid the transmission gear 121 from contacting the groove bottom surface 32.

[0091] In one example, a support bearing 125 is provided on the drive shaft, and the support bearing 125 is located at the end of the drive shaft, that is, the drive shaft is supported on the bottom surface 32 of the groove by the support bearing 125.

[0092] In this embodiment, the drive device 12 and the guide rail structure 3 adopt a gear and rack structure to facilitate the stable movement of the cleaning module 1 on the base 2.

[0093] Regarding the drive device 12, in one embodiment, the drive device 12 further includes a drive motor 123, a drive housing 124, and a transmission mechanism. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 4 The diagram illustrates the drive motor 123 and the drive housing 124. The drive housing 124 is located at one end of the support frame 11 along its length. The drive motor 123 is connected to the drive housing 124, and the transmission mechanism is located inside the drive housing 124, connecting the output shaft of the drive motor 123 to the transmission shaft. When the drive motor 123 operates, it drives the transmission shaft to rotate through the transmission mechanism, which in turn drives the transmission gear 121 on the transmission shaft to rotate.

[0094] In one example, the transmission mechanism is a gear drive; in other examples, the transmission mechanism is a conveyor belt drive.

[0095] Regarding the first cleaning unit 13, in one embodiment, please refer to... Figure 4 The first cleaning section 13 consists of several protrusions distributed on the support frame 11. That is, the first cleaning section 13 includes several protrusions, and each protrusion is distributed at intervals on the support frame 11.

[0096] In one example, the first cleaning section 13 is integrally formed with the support frame 11.

[0097] In one example, the protrusion is cylindrical, conical, frustum-shaped, or prism-shaped.

[0098] In one example, the edges of the protruding free end are rounded.

[0099] In one example, the protrusion is made of plastic.

[0100] In one example, the diameter of the protrusion ranges from 0.5 cm to 5 cm.

[0101] In this embodiment, by setting the first cleaning part 13 as a plurality of protrusions distributed on the support frame 11, compared with the first cleaning part 13 being a roller brush, the resistance when the first cleaning part 13 contacts the cleaning element of the cleaning device 100 can be reduced. When the roller brush contacts the cleaning element, the resistance is large, which increases the current required when the cleaning module 1 moves along the guide rail structure of the cleaning base station. However, in this embodiment, the resistance when the protrusions contact the cleaning element is relatively small, and the current required when the cleaning module 1 moves along the guide rail structure 3 of the cleaning base station is relatively small, thereby achieving the effect of saving power.

[0102] Regarding the distribution of the first cleaning section 13 on the support frame 11, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 4 In one embodiment, the protrusions are spaced apart to form a row of protrusions perpendicular (including perpendicular and substantially perpendicular, etc.) to the direction of movement of the support frame 11, and more than one row of protrusions is provided along the direction of movement of the support frame 11; in other embodiments, at least a portion of the row of protrusions is arranged perpendicular (including perpendicular and substantially perpendicular, etc.) to the direction of movement of the support frame 11.

[0103] In one example, see Figure 4 , Figure 4 The diagram shows that the first cleaning section 13 is a row of protrusions along the width direction of the support frame 11 (i.e., the direction of movement of the support frame 11).

[0104] In one example, the first cleaning section 13 consists of two, three, or four rows of protrusions along the width of the support frame 11.

[0105] In one example, the distance between two adjacent protrusions in the same first cleaning section 13 ranges from 1 to 5 cm.

[0106] In this embodiment, the protrusions of the first cleaning section 13 are arranged at intervals along the length of the support frame 11 so that the first cleaning section 13 can clean the cleaning elements of the cleaning device 100. In addition, the number of rows of protrusions in the first cleaning section 13 can be reasonably set according to the size, shape and other conditions of the support frame 11.

[0107] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 The cleaning module 1 also includes a liquid outlet structure 14, which has a liquid outlet hole 141 and is mounted on the support frame 11. In this embodiment, when cleaning the cleaning elements of the cleaning equipment 100 using the cleaning module 1, clean water (or water containing cleaning agent) can be supplied to the cleaning elements through the liquid outlet structure 14. Additionally, please refer to... Figure 3A water tank 21 is formed on the base 2. The cleaning module 1 spans across the water tank 21 via the guide rail structure 3. The water tank 21 is used to collect the wastewater after cleaning the cleaning components.

[0108] In one example, the liquid outlet structure 14 is disposed on the top surface of the support frame 11 and is connected to the water inlet pipe. Water can flow through the water inlet pipe to the liquid outlet structure 14 and be discharged through the liquid outlet hole 141 of the liquid outlet structure 14. In other examples, the liquid outlet structure 14 can be disposed within the support frame 11, and the support frame 11 is provided with a hole that communicates with the liquid outlet hole 141 on the liquid outlet structure 14. For example, in a specific example, the liquid outlet structure 14 is the water inlet pipe, and one end of the water inlet pipe forms the liquid outlet hole 141.

[0109] In one example, see Figure 4 The liquid effluent structure 14 is elongated.

[0110] In one example, see Figure 4 The liquid outlet structure 14 is provided with a plurality of liquid outlet holes 141, which are spaced apart along the length of the liquid outlet structure 14.

[0111] In one example, the outlet 141 is directed toward the cleaning element of the cleaning device 100 to discharge water.

[0112] In one example, some of the outlet holes 141 on the outlet structure 14 are directed toward the cleaning element of the cleaning device 100 to discharge water, while other outlet holes 141 are directed toward the first cleaning section 13 to discharge water.

[0113] In this embodiment, a liquid outlet structure 14 is provided on the support frame 11 to facilitate wetting of the cleaning elements of the cleaning device 100, so as to better clean the cleaning elements.

[0114] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 A cleaning tank 15 is formed on the cleaning module 1, and the first cleaning part 13 is located in the cleaning tank 15.

[0115] In one example, the position of the outlet hole 141 on the outlet structure 14 is set so that the clean water or water containing cleaning agent flowing out of the outlet hole 141 can flow to the cleaning tank 15.

[0116] When the cleaning module 1 cleans the cleaning elements of the cleaning device 100, the clean water or water containing cleaning agent flowing out of the liquid outlet 141 flows into the cleaning tank 15. The cleaning elements of the cleaning device 100 come into contact with the water in the cleaning tank 15 so that the first cleaning unit 13 can clean the cleaning elements. During the movement of the cleaning module 1, water falling from the cleaning elements will fall into the water tank 21 of the base 2, and water falling from the cleaning elements will also fall into the cleaning tank 15 for reuse to clean the cleaning elements.

[0117] In one example, the length direction of the cleaning tank 15 is along the length direction of the support frame 11.

[0118] In one example, the first cleaning section 13 consists of several protrusions distributed on the support frame 11. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 4 In one example, a row of protrusions is provided in the cleaning tank 15 to form a first cleaning section 13; in other examples, two or more rows of protrusions are provided in the cleaning tank 15 to form the first cleaning section 13.

[0119] In this embodiment, by providing a cleaning tank 15 on the cleaning module 1, the cleaning tank 15 can collect some of the water scraped off or dropped from the cleaning element, so that it can be reused to clean the cleaning element, thereby improving water utilization.

[0120] Regarding the cleaning tank 15, in one embodiment, the liquid outlet structure 14 and the support frame 11 form a cleaning tank 15; in other embodiments, the cleaning tank 15 is formed on the top surface of the support frame 11. The following mainly describes an example where the liquid outlet structure 14 and the support frame 11 form a cleaning tank 15.

[0121] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 The liquid outlet structure 14 is set on the top surface of the support frame 11, and a cleaning tank 15 is formed between the liquid outlet structure 14 and the support frame 11.

[0122] Please see Figure 4 The liquid outlet structure 14 has a liquid outlet hole 141 on the side facing the first cleaning section 13.

[0123] Please see Figure 4 The diagram illustrates a row of outlet holes 141 spaced apart along the length of the outlet structure 14, with each outlet hole 141 facing the first cleaning section 13.

[0124] A cleaning tank 15 is formed between the liquid outlet structure 14 and the support frame 11. It can be understood that a blocking protrusion is formed on the top surface of the support frame 11, and the cleaning tank 15 is formed between the blocking protrusion and the liquid outlet structure 14.

[0125] In this embodiment, by using a cleaning tank 15 formed between the liquid outlet structure 14 and the support frame 11, the outer contour shape of the liquid outlet structure 14 can be fully utilized, avoiding the liquid outlet structure 14 being located inside the cleaning tank 15, which would increase the area of ​​the cleaning tank 15.

[0126] In one embodiment, there is one first cleaning section 13; in other embodiments, there are multiple first cleaning sections 13, each located within a corresponding cleaning tank 15. For example, please refer to... Figure 4There are two first cleaning sections 13, arranged sequentially along the width of the support frame 11. Each first cleaning section 13 is located within a corresponding cleaning tank 15, meaning each first cleaning section 13 corresponds to a liquid outlet structure 14. Of course, the number of first cleaning sections 13 is not limited to two; it can also be three, four, or other numbers. In this embodiment, by setting the number of first cleaning sections 13 to multiple, the cleaning assembly can better clean the cleaning unit of the cleaning equipment 100, improving cleaning efficiency.

[0127] Please see Figure 4 In one example, a drain hole 111 is provided on the support frame 11, located between two adjacent cleaning tanks 15. The drain hole 111 facilitates the drainage of wastewater from the support frame 11 into the water tank 21 of the base 2.

[0128] In one example, there is one drain hole 111 that extends along the length of the support frame 11; in other examples, there are multiple drain holes 111.

[0129] In one example, the surfaces on both sides of the drainage hole 111 along the width direction of the support frame 11 are inclined surfaces; please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 4 The inclined surface is inclined downward along the direction from the cleaning tank 15 to the drain hole 111 to guide the sewage to flow into the drain hole 111.

[0130] In this example, a drainage hole 111 is provided on the support frame 11 so that the sewage on the support frame 11 can be discharged into the water tank 21 of the base 2 in a timely manner.

[0131] As described above, a cleaning tank 15 is formed between the liquid outlet structure 14 and the support frame 11. In one embodiment, please refer to... Figure 4 The top of the support frame 11 has a blocking protrusion 119, which together with the liquid outlet structure 14 form a cleaning tank 15.

[0132] Specifically, both ends of the liquid outlet structure 14 along the length direction and one side of the liquid outlet structure 14 along the width direction are provided with blocking protrusions 119, and the blocking protrusions 119 and the liquid outlet structure 14 form a cleaning tank 15.

[0133] In a specific example, the top of the support frame 11 is formed with a longitudinal baffle 1191, a wide baffle 1192, and a drive mounting protrusion 1193. The drive mounting protrusion 1193 is used to detachably connect to the drive device 12 via a connector. The wide baffle 1192 is arranged opposite to the drive mounting protrusion 1193, and the longitudinal baffle 1191 is arranged opposite to the liquid outlet structure 14. The wide baffle 1192, the longitudinal baffle 1191, the drive mounting protrusion 1193, and the liquid outlet structure 14 form a cleaning tank 15, that is, the wide baffle 1192, the longitudinal baffle 1191, and the drive mounting protrusion 1193 are used to form a blocking protrusion 119.

[0134] In one example, see Figure 4 The drive mounting protrusion 1193 is located near one end of the support frame 11, and the blocking protrusion 119 of each cleaning tank 15 includes the same drive mounting protrusion 1193.

[0135] Please see Figures 6-8 , Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the liquid outlet structure 14 provided in the embodiments of this application; Figure 7 A cross-sectional schematic diagram of the cleaning module 1 provided in an embodiment of this application; Figure 8 This is another structural schematic diagram of the cleaning module 1 provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0136] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 7 A positioning protrusion 112 is formed on the top surface of the support frame 11, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 6 The bottom of the liquid outlet structure 14 is provided with an elongated opening 142, and the positioning protrusion 112 is inserted into the opening 142 of the liquid outlet structure 14 so as to position the liquid outlet structure 14 on the support frame 11.

[0137] Please see Figure 8 The diagram shows the first liquid inlet pipe 19 and the second liquid inlet pipe 110. One end of each first liquid inlet pipe 19 is connected to the corresponding liquid outlet structure 14, and the other end of each first liquid inlet pipe 19 is connected to the second liquid inlet pipe 110. The second liquid inlet pipe 110 is used to connect to the clean water tank of the cleaning base station.

[0138] In one example, the liquid outlet structure 14 is bonded to the support frame 11, or fitted tightly together, or detachably connected via a connector.

[0139] In one example, see Figure 7 A drive shaft insertion hole 1721 is formed on the support frame 11. The drive shaft passes through the drive shaft insertion hole 1721 and is located in... Figure 7 Below the left-hand cleaning tank 15.

[0140] Please see Figures 9-15 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of another cleaning module 1 provided in an embodiment of this application; Figure 11 for Figure 10 An exploded view of the cleaning module 1 shown in the image; Figure 12 for Figure 10 The diagram shows a cross-sectional view of the cleaning module 1. Figure 13 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of another cleaning module 1 provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 14 for Figure 13 An exploded view of the cleaning module 1 shown in the image; Figure 15 for Figure 13 The diagram shows a cross-sectional view of the cleaning module 1.

[0141] Next, an example of a cleaning groove 15 formed on the top surface of the support frame 11 will be introduced. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 9 and Figure 10 The diagram shows that a cleaning groove 15 is formed on the top surface of the support frame 11.

[0142] In one example, both the first cleaning section 13 and the liquid outlet structure 14 are located within the cleaning tank 15; in other examples, the bottom surface of the cleaning tank 15 is provided with a liquid outlet hole 141 communicating with the liquid outlet structure 14. Preferably, the liquid outlet structure 14 is a water inlet pipe, with one end of the water inlet pipe forming the liquid outlet hole 141. The following description mainly assumes that both the first cleaning section 13 and the liquid outlet structure 14 are located within the cleaning tank 15.

[0143] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 9 as well as Figure 13 The top surface of the support frame 11 is recessed downward to form a cleaning tank 15, and the first cleaning part 13 and the liquid outlet structure 14 are both located in the cleaning tank 15.

[0144] In one example, see Figure 9 as well as Figure 13 The two ends of the liquid outlet structure 14 are in contact with the two opposite sides of the cleaning tank 15 along the length direction. In this case, it can be understood that the liquid outlet structure 14 divides the cleaning tank 15 into two independent and non-connected tanks. In other examples, the length of the liquid outlet structure 14 is less than the length of the cleaning tank 15, that is, there is a gap between at least one end of the liquid outlet structure 14 along the length direction and the cleaning tank 15. In this case, it can be understood that the liquid outlet structure 14 divides the cleaning tank 15 into two connected tanks.

[0145] In this embodiment, by setting the first cleaning section 13 and the liquid outlet structure 14 to be located in the cleaning tank 15 and the two first cleaning sections 13 to be located on both sides of the liquid outlet structure 14, the two first cleaning sections 13 share one liquid outlet structure 14, thereby reducing the number of parts.

[0146] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 There are two first cleaning sections 13, and the two first cleaning sections 13 are respectively located on both sides of the liquid outlet structure 14. Liquid outlet holes 141 are provided on both opposite sides of the liquid outlet structure 14, and the liquid outlet holes 141 on each side face the first cleaning section 13 on the corresponding side. In another embodiment, liquid outlet holes 141 are provided on the top surface of the liquid outlet structure 14. In another embodiment, not only are liquid outlet holes 141 provided on both opposite sides of the liquid outlet structure 14, but also on the top surface of the liquid outlet structure 14.

[0147] Please see Figure 9 and Figure 10 There are two first cleaning sections 13, and the two first cleaning sections 13 are respectively located on both sides of the liquid outlet structure 14. Multiple liquid outlet holes 141 are provided on both opposite sides of the liquid outlet structure 14. In one example, the liquid outlet holes 141 on each side of the liquid outlet structure 14 are spaced apart along the length direction of the liquid outlet structure 14.

[0148] In this embodiment, liquid outlet holes 141 are provided on both opposite sides of the liquid outlet structure 14, so that when water flows out of the liquid outlet holes 141, the water flows to the corresponding first cleaning part 13, and the cleaning element of the cleaning device 100 comes into contact with the water in the cleaning tank 15, so that the first cleaning part 13 can clean the cleaning element.

[0149] Please see Figure 13 There are two first cleaning sections 13, and the two first cleaning sections 13 are located on both sides of the liquid outlet structure 14. The top surface of the liquid outlet structure 14 is provided with a liquid outlet hole 141.

[0150] In one example, the liquid outlet holes 141 are spaced apart along the length of the liquid outlet structure 14 to form a row, and more than one row of liquid outlet holes 141 are provided along the distribution direction of the two first cleaning sections 13.

[0151] In one example, the top surface of the liquid outlet structure 14 includes a first region, a second region, and a third region, with the second region located between the first and third regions. The first, second, and third regions all extend along the length of the liquid outlet structure 14, and the liquid outlet hole 141 is located on the second region.

[0152] In one example, the first and third regions are symmetrically arranged on either side of the second region.

[0153] In one example, the first region extends downwards at an angle from the direction closer to the second region to the direction farther away from the second region; the third region extends downwards at an angle from the direction closer to the second region to the direction farther away from the second region.

[0154] In this embodiment, the clean water or water containing cleaning agent flowing out of the liquid outlet 141 can be directly sprayed onto the cleaning element of the cleaning device 100. Of course, the clean water flowing out of the liquid outlet 141 may also flow into the cleaning tank 15. In addition, the cleaning tank 15 can collect some of the water scraped off or dropped from the cleaning element so that it can be reused to clean the cleaning element.

[0155] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 13 A limiting protrusion 143 is formed on the liquid outlet structure 14. The limiting protrusion 143 is disposed on the top surface of the liquid outlet structure 14 and the two limiting protrusions 143 are arranged parallel to each other along the distribution direction of the two first cleaning parts 13. A liquid outlet hole 141 is provided between the two limiting protrusions 143.

[0156] In one example, see Figure 13 The limiting protrusion 143 is close to the edge along the width direction on the top surface of the liquid outlet structure 14.

[0157] In one example, the length of the limiting protrusion 143 is equal to the length of the liquid outlet structure 14; in other examples, the length of the limiting protrusion 143 is not equal to the length of the liquid outlet structure 14.

[0158] In one example, the height of the limiting protrusion 143 ranges from 0 to 10 mm.

[0159] In this embodiment, by providing a limiting protrusion 143 on the liquid outlet structure 14, a certain amount of water is stored on the top surface of the liquid outlet structure 14, which is beneficial for wetting the cleaning elements on the cleaning device 100.

[0160] Regarding the support frame 11, in one embodiment, please refer to... Figure 11 and Figure 14 The support frame 11 includes a first frame part 113 and a second frame part 114. The first frame part 113 is supported on the second frame part 114. A cleaning groove 15 is formed on the first frame part 113, and a hollow hole 1141 is formed on the second frame part 114. A water flow channel exists between the first frame part 113 and the second frame part 114, and the water flow channel is connected to the hollow hole 1141.

[0161] Please see Figure 10 and Figure 13 This illustrates that the first frame section 113 is connected to the second frame section 114; please refer to... Figure 11 and Figure 14 The diagram illustrates an exploded view of the first frame section 113 and the second frame section 114. In one example, the first frame section 113 and the second frame section 114 are snap-fitted or glued together, or are detachably connected via a connector, or are integrally formed.

[0162] When the liquid outlet structure 14 has liquid outlet holes 141 on both sides of the liquid outlet structure 14, when the cleaning module 1 cleans the cleaning element of the cleaning device 100, the clean water or water containing cleaning agent flowing out of the liquid outlet holes 141 flows into the cleaning tank 15. The cleaning element of the cleaning device 100 comes into contact with the water in the cleaning tank 15 so that the first cleaning part 13 can clean the cleaning element. During the movement of the cleaning module 1, the water falling from the cleaning element will flow into the water tank 21 of the base 2 through the water flow channel between the first frame part 113 and the second frame part 114 and the hollow hole 1141 on the second frame part 114. Of course, some water falling from the cleaning element will also fall into the cleaning tank 15 for reuse to clean the cleaning element.

[0163] In cases where outlet holes 141 are provided on the top surface of the outlet structure 14, the water flowing out of the cleaning tank 15 and the water flowing out of the first frame part 113 from the top surface of the outlet structure 14 will also flow into the water tank 21 of the base 2 through the water flow channel between the first frame part 113 and the second frame part 114 and the hollow hole 1141 on the second frame part 114.

[0164] In one example, see Figure 11 and Figure 14 An end flow hole 1142 is provided on the second frame part 114. The end flow hole 1142 is located at the end of the second frame part 114 away from the drive motor 123, and the end flow hole 1142 is located on one side of the liquid outlet structure 14 along its length direction.

[0165] In one example, the number of end flow holes 1142 is more than one.

[0166] When the cleaning module 1 provided in this application embodiment is supported on the base 2, the cleaning module 1 usually needs to be tilted to a certain extent. That is, along the direction of movement of the cleaning module 1 on the base 2 perpendicular to the direction of movement of the cleaning module 1, the end of the cleaning module 1 away from the drive motor 123 is tilted downward, and the cleaning angle is about 3° to 5°. By setting the end flow hole 1142, water can flow through the end flow hole 1142 into the water tank 21 of the base 2.

[0167] Regarding the existence of a water flow channel between the first frame section 113 and the second frame section 114, in one embodiment, please refer to... Figure 11The first frame portion 113 includes a first main body portion 1131 and ear portions 1132. Ear portions 1132 are provided on opposite sides of the first main body portion 1131. A clearance groove is formed on the top surface of the second frame portion 114. The first main body portion 1131 is located in the clearance groove and is connected to the second frame portion 114 through the ear portions 1132. There is a gap between the first main body portion 1131 and the second frame portion 114. The gap between the first main body portion 1131 and the second frame portion 114 forms a water flow channel between the first frame portion 113 and the second frame portion 114.

[0168] In one example, the first main body 1131 has two or more ears 1132 on each side. For example, see [link to example]. Figure 10 Each side of the first main body 1131 is provided with three ears 1132.

[0169] In one instance, please see Figure 12 A drive shaft insertion hole 1721 is formed on the support frame 11, and the drive shaft passes through the drive shaft insertion hole 1721 to penetrate the support frame 11.

[0170] In one instance, please see Figure 12 A positioning protrusion 112 is provided on the bottom surface of the cleaning tank 15, and an opening 142 is provided at the bottom of the liquid outlet structure 14. The positioning protrusion 112 is inserted into the liquid outlet structure 14 through the opening 142 to position the liquid outlet structure 14 in the cleaning tank 15.

[0171] Please see Figure 4 as well as Figures 9-12 In one embodiment, the cleaning module 1 further includes a second cleaning section 16, which is disposed on the support frame 11 and is used to clean the cleaning elements of the cleaning device 100.

[0172] In one example, a second cleaning section 16 is provided on the front and / or rear side of the cleaning tank 15 along the moving direction of the cleaning module 1, that is, the second cleaning section 16 is not provided in the cleaning tank 15; in other examples, the second cleaning section 16 is provided in the cleaning tank 15. The second cleaning section 16 is mainly described below with the example of the cleaning tank 15 having the second cleaning section 16 on the front and / or rear side along the moving direction of the cleaning module 1.

[0173] Please see Figure 4 The illustration shows that a second cleaning section 16 is provided on one side of the cleaning tank 15 along its width direction (i.e., the moving direction of the cleaning module 1). In one example, more than one second cleaning section 16 is provided on one side of the cleaning tank 15 along its width direction. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 9-12The illustration shows that the cleaning tank 15 is provided with a second cleaning section 16 on both sides along the width direction. In one example, the cleaning tank 15 is provided with one or more second cleaning sections 16 on each side along the width direction.

[0174] Please see Figure 4 In one example, the second cleaning section 16 is located on the side of the cleaning tank 15 opposite to the liquid outlet structure 14. It can be understood that the first cleaning section 13, along with the liquid outlet structures 14 and the second cleaning section 16 located on either side of the first cleaning section 13, form a cleaning assembly. In a specific example, the cleaning module 1 is provided with more than one cleaning assembly. For example, see... Figure 4 This illustrates that cleaning module 1 includes two cleaning components.

[0175] In one example, the second cleaning section 16 is a scraper.

[0176] In existing related technologies, the cleaning module uses a rotating roller brush to clean the cleaning equipment's cloth. The contact resistance between the roller brush and the cloth is high, so a scraper is usually set on the cleaning module. However, in the embodiment of this application, a first cleaning part 13 (i.e., a protrusion) is used instead of the roller brush. The resistance when the first cleaning part 13 contacts the cleaning element of the cleaning equipment 100 is small. This makes it possible to add two or more second cleaning parts 16 to the cleaning module 1 provided in this application embodiment without exceeding the travel resistance of the cleaning module in existing related technologies, thereby facilitating better cleaning of the cleaning element of the cleaning equipment 100.

[0177] In one example, see Figure 12 The support frame 11 is provided with a cleaning part insertion hole 116, and the second cleaning part 16 is inserted into the cleaning part insertion hole 116.

[0178] In one example, the length of the second cleaning section 16 extends along the length of the support frame 11.

[0179] In one example, the second cleaning section 16 is arranged parallel to the liquid outlet structure 14.

[0180] In one example, the lengths of the second cleaning sections 16 on the support frame 11 are the same.

[0181] In one example, the interference fit between the second cleaning section 16 and the cleaning element on the cleaning device 100 is not less than 2.5 mm.

[0182] The interference fit between the second cleaning section 16 and the cleaning element on the cleaning device 100 can be understood as follows: when the cleaning device 100 is supported on the cleaning base station, the second cleaning section 16 will be squeezed and undergo elastic deformation. If the second cleaning section 16 is in contact with the cleaning device 100 and no elastic deformation occurs, it means that the second cleaning section 16 and the cleaning element on the cleaning device 100 are not in an interference fit, and the interference fit between them is 0. The interference fit between the second cleaning section 16 and the cleaning element on the cleaning device 100 is increased by the height of the second cleaning section 16 based on the condition that the second cleaning section 16 is in contact with the cleaning device 100 and no elastic deformation occurs.

[0183] The interference fit is positively correlated with the cleaning effect. Increasing the interference fit can improve the cleaning effect of the second cleaning section 16 on the cleaning elements. However, a large interference fit will also increase the travel resistance of the cleaning module 1. Therefore, it is necessary to reasonably set the interference fit between the second cleaning section 16 and the cleaning elements on the cleaning equipment 100.

[0184] As described above, in existing related technologies, the cleaning module uses a rotating roller brush to clean the cloth of the cleaning device. The contact resistance between the roller brush and the cloth is large. However, in the embodiment of this application, a first cleaning part 13 (i.e., a protrusion) is used instead of the roller brush. The resistance when the first cleaning part 13 contacts the cleaning element of the cleaning device 100 is small. Therefore, this makes it possible to increase the interference fit between the second cleaning part 16 and the cleaning element on the cleaning device 100 without exceeding the travel resistance of the cleaning module in existing related technologies. This is beneficial for better cleaning of the cleaning element of the cleaning device 100.

[0185] In one example, the interference fit between the second cleaning unit 16 and the cleaning element on the cleaning device 100 is 2.5mm to 3.5mm. For example, the interference fit between the second cleaning unit 16 and the cleaning element on the cleaning device 100 can be 2.6mm, 2.7mm, 2.8mm, 2.9mm, 3.0mm, 3.1mm, or 3.2mm, etc.

[0186] In this embodiment, a second cleaning section 16 is provided so that the first cleaning section 13 and the second cleaning section 16 can cooperate to better clean the cleaning elements of the cleaning device 100.

[0187] Please see Figure 16 , Figure 16 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the second cleaning unit 16 provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0188] In one embodiment, the second cleaning section 16 is a floating scraper.

[0189] For a specific example, please see Figure 16The second cleaning unit 16 includes a scraper body 161 and a scraper support 162. There are multiple scraper supports 162, which are spaced apart at the bottom of the scraper body 161 along the length direction of the scraper body 161. The scraper supports 162 are inclined. When the cleaning element of the cleaning device 100 squeezes the scraper body 161, the scraper support 162 can undergo elastic deformation so that the scraper body 161 can abut against the cleaning element.

[0190] In this embodiment, the second cleaning section 16 is configured as a floating scraper to better scrape and clean the cleaning elements of the cleaning device 100.

[0191] Please see Figures 17-20 , Figure 17 An exploded view of the cleaning module 1 provided in this application embodiment; Figure 18 Another exploded view of the cleaning module 1 provided in the embodiments of this application; Figure 19 This is an exploded view of the first water tank cleaning component 17 provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 20 for Figure 19 A magnified view of a portion of point A in the middle.

[0192] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 17 The cleaning module 1 also includes a first water tank cleaning component 17, which is disposed on one side of the support frame 11 and the drive device 12; in other embodiments, please refer to Figure 17 The cleaning module 1 also includes a second water tank cleaning component 18, which is disposed on the other side of the support frame 11 and the drive device 12.

[0193] It can be understood that the first water tank cleaning component 17 and the second water tank cleaning component 18 are both water tank cleaning components. The water tank cleaning components are used to scrape and clean the water tank 21 of the base 2. That is, when the cleaning module 1 moves along the guide rail structure 3 on the base 2, the water tank cleaning components can scrape and clean the water tank 21.

[0194] In one example, the cleaning module 1 includes only the first sink cleaning component 17, that is, the cleaning module 1 does not include the second sink cleaning component 18; in other examples, the cleaning module 1 includes both the first sink cleaning component 17 and the second sink cleaning component 18, so as to better clean the sink 21.

[0195] In one example, the first sink cleaning component 17 and the second sink cleaning component 18 have the same structure; in other examples, the first sink cleaning component 17 and the second sink cleaning component 18 have different structures.

[0196] In one example, the shape of the first sink cleaning component 17 is adapted to the shape of the support frame 11 to facilitate the installation of the first sink cleaning component 17 on the support frame 11; in other examples, the shape of the first sink cleaning component 17 is adapted to the shape of the corresponding end of the sink 21. Specifically, the sink 21 includes two opposite ends along the moving direction of the support frame 11, namely the first end of the sink and the second end of the sink. The first sink cleaning component 17 is closer to the first end of the sink than the second end of the sink. The shape of the first sink cleaning component 17 being adapted to the shape of the corresponding end of the sink 21 means that the shape of the first sink cleaning component 17 is adapted to the shape of the first end of the sink to facilitate better cleaning of the sink 21.

[0197] In one example, the shape of the first sink cleaning component 17 is adapted to the shape of the sink 21 so that when the drive device 12 moves the support frame 11 on the base 2, the bottom of the first sink cleaning component 17 is always in contact with the bottom surface of the sink 21, so as to facilitate the cleaning of the sink 21.

[0198] In one specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 17 The first water tank cleaning component 17 extends in the direction of movement of the support frame 11, which is perpendicular to the entire first water tank cleaning component 17 or a portion thereof, or substantially perpendicular to the entire first water tank cleaning component 17 or a portion thereof.

[0199] In one example, the shape of the second sink cleaning component 18 is adapted to the shape of the support frame 11 to facilitate its installation on the support frame 11. In other examples, the shape of the second sink cleaning component 18 is adapted to the shape of the corresponding end of the sink 21. Specifically, as described above, the sink 21 along the moving direction of the support frame 11 includes a first end and a second end of the sink, and the second sink cleaning component 18 is closer to the second end of the sink than the first end. The shape of the second sink cleaning component 18 being adapted to the shape of the corresponding end of the sink 21 means that the shape of the second sink cleaning component 18 is adapted to the shape of the second end of the sink to facilitate better cleaning of the sink 21.

[0200] In one example, the shape of the second sink cleaning component 18 is adapted to the shape of the sink 21 so that when the drive device 12 moves the support frame 11 on the base 2, the bottom of the second sink cleaning component 18 is always in contact with the bottom surface of the sink 21, so as to facilitate the cleaning of the sink 21.

[0201] In one specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 17The second water tank cleaning component 18 extends in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the support frame 11 (including the second water tank cleaning component 18 as a whole or a part of the second water tank cleaning component 18 being perpendicular, and the second water tank cleaning component 18 as a whole or a part of the second water tank cleaning component 18 being substantially perpendicular, etc.).

[0202] In one example, the first sink cleaning component 17 is detachably connected to the support frame 11 by means of connectors such as screws or bolts.

[0203] In one example, the second water tank cleaning component 18 is detachably connected to the support frame 11 by means of connectors such as screws or bolts.

[0204] In this embodiment, the cleaning module 1 is provided with a first water tank cleaning component 17 and / or a second water tank cleaning component 18 to facilitate scraping and cleaning the water tank 21 of the base 2.

[0205] In one embodiment, please refer back to [link to previous document]. Figure 9 The drive device 12 includes a drive housing 124, which is disposed at one end of the support frame 11; the first water tank cleaning component 17 protrudes from the end face of the drive housing 124 away from the end of the support frame 11.

[0206] It can be understood that the first water tank cleaning component 17 provided in this application embodiment has a sufficient length to match the length of the water tank 21 along the width direction of the base 2, so as to avoid designing the length of the first water tank cleaning component 17 too small, which would cause some areas on the water tank 21 to not be scraped and cleaned.

[0207] In one example, the first water tank cleaning component 17 is plate-shaped.

[0208] In one example, see Figure 17 The side of the support frame 11 facing the first water tank cleaning component 17 is the first side surface 117 of the frame, and the side of the drive housing 124 facing the first water tank cleaning component 17 is the first side surface 1241 of the housing. The first side surface 1241 of the housing does not protrude from the first side surface 117 of the frame along the width direction of the cleaning module 1, so that when the first water tank cleaning component 17 is flat, one end of the first water tank cleaning component 17 along the length direction can protrude from the end face of the drive housing 124 away from the support frame 11.

[0209] In one example, the first water tank cleaning component 17 is non-flat to accommodate the first side 1241 of the housing protruding from the first side 117 of the frame along the width direction of the cleaning module 1.
