Detailed Implementation

[0044] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model proposes a clean base station 10, including a base station base 100 and a base station body 200 disposed on the base station base 100. Furthermore, the base station base 100 may include a base body 110 and a cleaning tank 120 disposed on the base body 110; the base station body 200 may include a main body shell 210 protruding from the base body 110, a liquid supply assembly 230 disposed on the main body shell 210 and connected to the cleaning tank 120, and a control circuit 240 connected to the liquid supply assembly 230.

[0046] An open receiving cavity 202 is formed between the cleaning tank 120 of the base body 110 of the base station base 100 and the main body shell 210 of the base station body 200, which can be used to accommodate cleaning equipment such as a sweeper. When the cleaning equipment such as the sweeper is located in the receiving cavity, the cleaning brush or cleaning cloth of the sweeper or cleaning equipment can be located in the cleaning tank 120. Moreover, using the liquid supply component 230 connected to the cleaning tank on the base station body 200, under the control of the control circuit 240, the cleaning liquid (such as clean water, or clean water with added detergent, etc.) is delivered to the cleaning tank 120 of the base body 110 through the liquid supply component 230 to wet the cleaning brush or cleaning cloth of the cleaning equipment located in the cleaning tank 120, and the cleaning brush or cleaning cloth of the cleaning equipment can be activated to self-clean the cleaning components through the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 120.

[0047] Specifically, such as Figures 2 to 3 As shown, the front side of the base body 110 may be provided with an inclined guide slope 112, and the cleaning tank 120 may be provided on the rear side of the base body 110. Moreover, the guide slope 112 is located at the entrance of the receiving cavity, and the cleaning tank 120 is located inside the receiving cavity. Through the guide slope 112 on the front side of the base body 110, cleaning equipment such as sweepers can easily move along the guide slope 112 into the receiving cavity of the cleaning base station 10, and the cleaning brushes or cleaning cloths at the bottom of the sweepers or other cleaning equipment can be moved into the cleaning tank 120 inside the receiving cavity.

[0048] Furthermore, the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 120 may be provided with multiple protruding ribs 140, which divide the cleaning chamber of the cleaning tank 120 into multiple interconnected sub-chambers. The multiple protruding ribs 140 in the cleaning tank 120 increase friction on cleaning components such as cleaning brushes or cleaning cloths at the bottom of cleaning equipment like sweepers, thereby improving the cleaning effect. Moreover, each protruding rib 140 may have multiple protrusions 142 on its top surface, which further increase the friction between the rib and the cleaning components of the cleaning equipment. For example, these protrusions 142 may be designed as raised dots.

[0049] In this embodiment, multiple ribs 140 can be used to correspond to the cleaning brush of a sweeper. Specifically, a set of ribs 140 can be provided on each side of the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 120; each set of ribs 140 may include three ribs 140, and the three ribs 140 extend outward along a center. Moreover, a limiting groove is formed at the center of the three ribs 140 in each set of ribs 140, which can position the center of the cleaning brush of the sweeper or other cleaning equipment, so that the cleaning brush of the cleaning equipment rotates along the center to perform friction cleaning with the three ribs 140 and the multiple protrusions 142 thereon.

[0050] In addition, multiple ribs 140 may be irregularly distributed on the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 120.

[0051] Furthermore, the main body shell 210 of the base station body 200 includes a bottom shell 212 surrounding the cleaning tank 120 of the base body 110, and a top shell 214 disposed on the bottom shell 212. A receiving cavity 202 for accommodating cleaning equipment such as a sweeper is formed between the inner side of the bottom shell 212, the bottom surface of the top shell 214, and the top surface of the base body 110. Moreover, a water tank structure 220 may be disposed on the top shell, and a liquid supply assembly 230 may be disposed on the top shell 212 and the bottom shell 214.

[0052] Moreover, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, a water tank assembly 220 may be provided on the main body shell 210 of the base station body 200. Furthermore, the liquid supply assembly 230 may include a suction device 232 disposed on the base body 110 or the main body shell 210, a liquid supply pipe connecting the water tank structure 220, the suction device 232, and the cleaning tank 120, and a control valve 234 disposed on the liquid supply pipe. The suction device 232 and the control valve 234 are connected to a control circuit 240. The control circuit 240 can control the suction device 232 to draw the cleaning liquid from the water tank structure 220 through the liquid supply pipe into the cleaning tank 120, facilitating the cleaning of cleaning components of cleaning equipment such as sweepers in the cleaning tank 120. Specifically, the suction device 232 may include a water pump. Moreover, the control circuit 240 can also control the control valve 234 to shut off or open the liquid supply pipe. Furthermore, it should be noted that the control circuit 240 for controlling the control valve 234 and the suction device 232 (such as a water pump) and their corresponding control schemes are all existing technologies.

[0053] Furthermore, the water tank structure 220 may include a clean water tank mounted on the main housing 210. The liquid supply assembly 230 may include a liquid supply pipe connecting the clean water tank and the cleaning tank 120, as well as a suction device 232 and a control valve 234 mounted on the liquid supply pipe. The suction device 232 can draw the cleaning liquid from the clean water tank into the cleaning tank 120 through the liquid supply pipe, and the flow rate of the cleaning liquid can be adjusted by the control valve 234 on the liquid supply pipe. In addition, the cleaning tank 120 may also be connected to a drain pipe, which may be equipped with a drain valve. The drain valve can be used to adjust the drain pipe to discharge wastewater from the cleaning tank 120.

[0054] Furthermore, the water tank structure 220 may also include a clean water tank and a wastewater tank disposed on the main body shell 210. The liquid supply assembly 230 may include a first liquid supply pipe connecting the clean water tank and the cleaning tank 120, and a first control valve disposed on the first liquid supply pipe, or a first control valve and a first suction device disposed on the first liquid supply pipe. The cleaning liquid in the clean water tank can be supplied to the cleaning tank 120 via the first control valve, or via the first control valve and the first suction device. Moreover, the liquid supply assembly 230 may include a second liquid supply pipe connecting the wastewater tank and the cleaning tank 120, and a second suction device disposed on the second liquid supply pipe, or a second control valve and a second suction device disposed on the second liquid supply pipe. Wastewater in the cleaning tank 120 can be transported to the wastewater tank via the second suction device, or via the second control valve and the second suction device.

[0055] Furthermore, the liquid supply assembly 230 may also include a liquid supply pipe disposed on the base body 110 and the main body housing 210, and a control valve 234 disposed on the liquid supply pipe. One end of the liquid supply pipe can be connected to a tap water pipe, and the other end can be connected to the cleaning tank 120. The control valve 234 is connected to the control circuit 240. Under the control of the control circuit 240, the control valve 234 can be opened or closed, so that the liquid supply pipe delivers tap water to the cleaning tank 120. Moreover, the cleaning tank 120 may also be connected to a drain pipe, and a drain valve may be provided on the drain pipe. The drain valve can be used to adjust the drain pipe to discharge sewage and waste liquid in the cleaning tank 120. In addition, as needed, a suction device 232 connected to the control circuit 240 may also be provided on the drain pipe and / or the liquid supply pipe to accelerate the drainage speed or the water inlet speed.

[0056] In addition, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a wastewater volume detection structure 300 is provided between the main body shell 210 of the base station body 200 and the cleaning tank 120 of the base station base 100. The wastewater volume detection structure 300 is connected to the control circuit 240. When the wastewater or cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 120 submerges the wastewater volume detection structure 300, the wastewater volume detection structure 300 triggers the control circuit 240 to shut down the liquid supply component 230. By using the wastewater volume detection structure 300 located between the main body shell 210 and the cleaning tank 120, when the cleaning liquid or wastewater in the cleaning tank 120 submerges the wastewater volume detection structure 300, the wastewater volume detection structure 300 is electrically connected to the control circuit 240, causing the control circuit 240 to shut down the liquid supply component 230. This causes the water tank structure 220 to stop supplying cleaning liquid to the cleaning tank 120, thereby preventing the overflow of cleaning wastewater or cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 120 and avoiding pollution to the clean base station 10 and the environment.

[0057] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 and Figure 9As shown, the wastewater volume detection structure 300 may include a first detection head (310a, 310b) and a second detection head (320a, 320b) disposed between the main body housing 210 and the cleaning tank 120. Both the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) are connected to the control circuit 240. When the wastewater in the cleaning tank 120 submerges the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b), the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) are electrically connected to trigger the control circuit 240 to shut down the liquid supply assembly 230. When neither the first detection head (310a, 310b) nor the second detection head (320a, 320b) is in contact with the sewage in the cleaning tank 120, they are in a separated state, i.e., not electrically connected. When both the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) are in contact with the sewage, the sewage in the cleaning tank 120 electrically connects the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b), causing the control circuit 240 connected to the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) to trigger the liquid supply assembly 230 to shut down. This closes the control valve 234 and / or the suction device 232 on the liquid supply pipe that supplies cleaning liquid to the cleaning tank 120 through the clean water tank, thereby stopping the liquid supply to the cleaning tank 120.

[0058] like Figures 5 to 8 As shown, in some embodiments, both the first detection head 310a and the second detection head 320a may include a metal detection plate 312 disposed on the wall of the cleaning tank 120, and a metal detection probe 314 disposed on the main housing 210. The metal detection probe 314 is electrically connected to both the metal detection plate 312 and the control circuit 240. Through the metal detection plate 312 disposed on the wall of the cleaning tank 120, when the cleaning liquid or wastewater in the cleaning tank 120 reaches a certain volume, the metal detection plate 312 is submerged, thereby electrically connecting the metal detection plates 312 of the two detection heads (i.e., the first detection head 310a and the second detection head 320a) through the cleaning liquid or wastewater, thus electrically connecting the two detection heads to the control circuit 240. Furthermore, the metal detection plate 312 may be disposed at a preset height on the wall of the cleaning tank 120, so that the metal detection plate 312 is submerged only when the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 120 reaches the preset height, thereby electrically connecting the two detection heads.

[0059] Specifically, a mounting boss 130 may be provided on the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 120, and a metal detection plate 312 may be laid flat on the top surface of the mounting boss 130. Both the mounting boss 130 and the metal detection plate 312 are located in the cleaning chamber of the cleaning tank 120. The height of the mounting boss 130 may be a preset height, so that the metal detection plate 312 laid flat on it is at a preset height position. Moreover, by laying the metal detection plate 312 flat on the top surface of the mounting boss 130, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 120 can be in full contact with the metal detection plate 312, so that the first detection head 310a and the second detection head 320a can be stably electrically connected. Moreover, the mounting boss 130 may be located in the middle of the cleaning tank 120 or on the side of the cleaning tank 120 (i.e., at the side wall of the tank). Moreover, the metal detection plate 312 may be attached to the surface of the top surface of the mounting boss 130 or embedded in the top surface of the mounting boss 130.

[0060] Furthermore, one side of the mounting boss 130 can extend outside the side wall of the cleaning tank 120. The metal detection plate 312 may include a wastewater contact portion 3122 located in the cleaning chamber of the cleaning tank 120, and an electrical connection portion 3124 located outside the cleaning tank 120 and connected to the wastewater contact portion 3122. The electrical connection portion 3124 is electrically connected to the metal detection probe 314. Thus, the mounting boss 130 can be disposed on the side wall of the cleaning tank 120, such that a portion of the mounting boss 130 (i.e., the wastewater contact portion 3122) is located inside the cleaning tank 120, and another portion (i.e., the electrical connection portion 3124) is located outside the cleaning tank 120, and the metal detection probe 314 is located outside the cleaning tank 120 and blocked by the side wall of the cleaning tank 120. This prevents the cleaning fluid in the cleaning tank 120 from splashing up during the cleaning of the cleaning equipment and directly contacting the metal detection probe 314, thus avoiding electrical connection between the two detection heads or contamination and corrosion damage to the metal detection probe 314, which would affect the detection effect. In addition, it also ensures that the cleaning fluid in the cleaning tank 120 only contacts the wastewater contact part 3122 in the cleaning tank 120, and does not directly contact the metal detection probe 314 to avoid contamination and corrosion damage.

[0061] Furthermore, the metal detection probe 314 may include a detection mounting base 3142 disposed on the main body housing 210, and a detection probe body 3144 disposed in the detection mounting base 3142 and connected to the control circuit 240. The end of the detection probe body 3144 protrudes from the detection mounting base 3142 and corresponds vertically to the metal detection piece. The detection probe body 3144 can be installed and fixed by the detection mounting base 3142, and the end of the detection probe body 3144 protruding from the detection mounting base 3142 can abut against the electrical connection portion 3124 of the metal detection piece on the mounting boss 130. Moreover, the contact end of the detection probe body 3144 may be provided with a planar boss 3146, which can achieve surface contact with the surface of the electrical connection portion 3124 of the metal detection piece, making the electrical connection between the two more stable and reliable.

[0062] Furthermore, the detection probe body 3144 may include a U-shaped metal detection plate, which can be embedded in the detection mounting base 3142. The flat boss 3146 at the bottom contact end of the metal detection plate can protrude beyond the bottom surface of the detection mounting base 3142, and the two connecting plates at the top of the metal detection plate can be connected to the control circuit 240. Moreover, the detection mounting base 3142 can be detachably connected to the main housing 210, and the detection probe body 3144 can also be detachably connected to the control circuit 240, facilitating disassembly and maintenance. Furthermore, the detection mounting base 3142 may also include a main mounting base disposed on the main housing 210, and a probe setting seat snapped into the main mounting base, with the U-shaped metal detection plate disposed in the probe setting seat.

[0063] In addition, such as Figures 9 to 10 As shown, in some embodiments, the first detection head 310b may include a first detection metal head 316 disposed in the cleaning tank 120, and the second detection head 320b includes a second detection metal head 322 disposed on the main body shell 210 and located above the first detection metal head 316. Both the first detection metal head 316 and the second detection metal head 322 are electrically connected to the control circuit 240. In this embodiment, the first detection metal head 316 of the first detection head 310b and the second detection metal head 322 of the second detection head 320b are disposed vertically and correspondingly in the cleaning tank 120. When the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 120 simultaneously immerses the first detection metal head 316 and the second detection metal head 322, the first detection head 310b and the second detection head 320b can be electrically connected.

[0064] Furthermore, the first metal detection head 316 may include a first metal sheet disposed on the bottom wall or side wall of the cleaning tank 120, and the first metal sheet is connected to the control circuit 240; the second metal detection head 322 may include a second mounting base 3222 disposed on the main body housing 210, and a second metal probe 3224 disposed in the second mounting base 3222 and connected to the control circuit 240, the end of the second metal probe 3224 protruding out of the second mounting base 3222 and corresponding vertically to the first metal sheet.

[0065] Similarly, the first metal sheet can also be positioned at a predetermined height on the bottom wall or side wall of the cleaning tank 120. For example, a mounting boss 130 can be provided on the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 120, and the first metal sheet can be laid flat on the top surface of the mounting boss 130. Both the mounting boss 130 and the first metal sheet are located in the cleaning chamber of the cleaning tank 120. The height of the mounting boss 130 can be a predetermined height, so that the first metal sheet laid flat on it is at a predetermined height position. That is, in this embodiment, the specific structure, arrangement, and working principle of the first metal sheet are similar to the specific structure, arrangement, and working principle of the metal detection sheet 312 in the above embodiment.

[0066] Furthermore, similarly, the specific structure, arrangement, and working principle of the second mounting base 3222 in this embodiment are similar to the specific structure, arrangement, and working principle of the detection mounting base 3142 in the above embodiment; the specific structure, arrangement, and working principle of the second metal probe 3224 in this embodiment are also similar to the specific structure, arrangement, and working principle of the detection probe body 3144 in the above embodiment.

[0067] Furthermore, the cleaning tank 120 of the base station base 100 may have an entrance side for the cleaning equipment to enter and an inner side away from the entrance side. The first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) are both located inside the cleaning tank 120. By placing the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) inside the cleaning tank 120, the detection heads can be placed at a deeper position in the cleaning tank 120, achieving a hidden design for the detection heads and avoiding accidental activation.

[0068] Furthermore, at least one pair of the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) can be provided. This means that either one pair of the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) can be provided, or multiple pairs of the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) can be provided, making the detection of wastewater in the cleaning tank 120 more accurate and reliable. For example, the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) can be set at different positions in the cleaning tank 120, in which case a pair of first detection heads (310a, 310b) and second detection heads (320a, 320b) can be set; or the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) can be set vertically to the same position in the cleaning tank 120, in which case two or more pairs of first detection heads (310a, 310b) and second detection heads (320a, 320b) can be set.

[0069] Furthermore, the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 120 of the base station base 100 may be provided with multiple protruding ribs 140. These ribs 140 divide the cleaning chamber of the cleaning tank 120 into multiple interconnected sub-chambers. The first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) are located in one sub-chamber or in two separate sub-chambers. As can be seen from the above, the multiple ribs 140 can perform friction cleaning on the cleaning components at the bottom of the cleaning equipment and can also position the cleaning components. Moreover, the multiple ribs 140 can divide the cleaning chamber of the cleaning tank 120 into multiple sub-chambers, which can reduce the shaking of the cleaning fluid when cleaning the cleaning components of the cleaning equipment. Furthermore, the first detection head (310a, 310b) and the second detection head (320a, 320b) can be located in the same sub-chamber or in two separate sub-chambers.

[0070] Furthermore, this utility model also proposes a cleaning system, including the cleaning base station 10 as described above, and cleaning equipment that cooperates with the cleaning base station 10. By setting a wastewater volume detection structure 300 in the cleaning tank 120 at the bottom of the cleaning base station 10, when the cleaning liquid or wastewater in the cleaning tank 120 submerges the wastewater volume detection structure 300, the wastewater volume detection structure 300 is electrically connected to the control circuit 240, causing the control circuit 240 to shut off the liquid supply component 230. This allows the water tank structure 220 to stop supplying cleaning liquid to the cleaning tank 120, thereby preventing the overflow of cleaning wastewater or cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 120 and avoiding pollution of the cleaning base station 10 and the environment.

[0071] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the cleaning device can be a sweeper with a cleaning brush or cleaning cloth at the bottom. Alternatively, the cleaning device can also be a sweeper or mop with a cleaning roller brush, etc.
