[0056] Figure 1 A structural schematic diagram of a cleaning base station provided for one of the embodiments of the present application, Figure 2 A cutaway view of a cleaning system provided for one of the embodiments of the present application.
[0057] Please see Figure 1 andFigure 2 The clean base station includes: base station body 1, flow guiding component 2, and fan 3.
[0058] The base station body 1 defines a accommodating space 1a, which is configured to accommodate the cleaning components of the cleaning equipment.
[0059] The base station body 1 defines a flow guiding space 1b, and the flow guiding component 2 is disposed in the flow guiding space 1b to divide the flow guiding space 1b into at least one first flow guiding duct 1ba and at least one second flow guiding duct 1bb.
[0060] The base station body 1 has a first air outlet 11a and a second air outlet 11b. The first air outlet 11a connects at least one first air duct 1ba to the accommodating space 1a, and the second air outlet 11b connects at least one second air duct 1bb to the accommodating space 1a.
[0061] A fan 3 is disposed on the base station body 1 and is configured to generate airflow. Exemplarily, the fan 3 includes a motor 31 and a fan blade 32. The motor 31 is mounted to the base station body 1, and the fan blade 32 is disposed on the shaft of the motor 31 to generate airflow.
[0062] Please combine Figure 5 and Figure 6 See also Figure 2 The fan 3 has a rotation axis 3a. At least one first air guide duct 1ba and a first air outlet 11a are located on one side of the rotation axis 3a of the fan 3. The first air guide duct 1ba is configured to guide the airflow generated by the fan 3 to the first air outlet 11a.
[0063] At least one second air guide duct 1bb and the second air outlet 11b are located on the other side of the rotation axis 3a of the fan 3. The second air guide duct 1bb is configured to guide the airflow generated by the fan 3 to the second air outlet 11b.
[0064] The cleaning base station provided in this application embodiment is used to dock with cleaning equipment to evenly dry the cleaning components of the cleaning equipment. Among them, the cleaning equipment with cleaning components can include cleaning robots with cleaning functions, such as sweeping robots and floor scrubbing robots; it can also include handheld cleaning devices with cleaning functions, such as handheld floor scrubbers, handheld floor mops, and handheld vacuum cleaners.
[0065] Next, to facilitate the reader's understanding of the technical solution of this application, a floor scrubber will be used as the cleaning equipment, and a cleaning base station matched with the floor scrubber will be illustrated as an example. It should be noted that the following description of the floor scrubber's roller brush drying process assumes that the roller brush has already been cleaned, as detailed below:
[0066] The air flow generated by the fan 3 directly enters the first air guide duct 1ba, and is blown to the containing space 1a through the first air outlet 11a under the guidance of the first air guide duct 1ba; at the same time, the air flow generated by the fan 3 also directly enters the second air guide duct 1bb, and is blown to the containing space 1a through the second air outlet 11b under the guidance of the second air guide duct 1bb. The air flow is blown out from the two opposite directions at the same time, forming a convection circulation, so as to form a uniform air flow distribution in the entire containing space 1a, and then uniformly dry the roller brush.
[0067] Compared with the related art, the cleaning base station provided in the application can form a convection circulation after the air flow generated by the fan 3 is blown out from the first air outlet 11a and the second air outlet 11b, and uniformly dry the roller brush, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning base station.
[0068] In addition, the fan 3 and the air guide assembly 2 do not need to be arranged with an air inlet channel, on the one hand, the additional structural member for forming the air inlet channel is omitted, and the layout of the structures in the cleaning base station is more compact; on the other hand, the layout of the air ducts in the cleaning base station is more simple, the flow resistance of the air flow is reduced, and the air flow is more uniform.
[0069] In addition, the cleaning base station provided in the application can also dry the roller brush of the self-cleaning scrubber.
[0070] The cleaning liquid supply system of the scrubber sprays cleaning liquid into the containing space 1a, which can be water or steam, and the cleaning liquid is sprayed on the roller brush, and the dirty on the roller brush is scraped off by the scraping strip around the roller brush to realize self-cleaning of the roller brush. At the same time, the dirty recovery system of the scrubber recovers the dirty water in the containing space 1a. The dirty recovery system can rely on the suction motor to suck, and can rely on the rotation of the roller brush to recover the dirty water.
[0071] The difference between the above-described self-cleaning roller brush and the self-cleaning roller brush is that the self-cleaning roller brush usually has a part of the cleaned dirty water remaining in the containing space 1a, so a liquid storage tank 4 needs to be arranged in the cleaning base station.
[0072] As Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, the cleaning base station comprises a liquid storage tank 4. The base station body 1 further defines an open cavity 1c, which is located below the accommodation space 1a along the gravity direction G, and the liquid storage tank 4 is arranged in the open cavity 1c, and the liquid storage cavity of the liquid storage tank 4 is in communication with the accommodation space 1a. Exemplarily, the base station body 1 is provided with a buckle hole 1e on the side wall away from the opening of the open cavity 1c, and the liquid storage tank 4 is provided with a buckle 41 on the side corresponding to the buckle hole 1e, and the buckle 41 is buckled in the buckle hole 1e, so as to realize the detachable installation of the liquid storage tank 4. In some embodiments, the gravity direction G is perpendicular to the rotation axis 3a direction of the fan 3.
[0073] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 Please refer to Figure 2 or Figure 4 In some embodiments, the base station body 1 comprises a base station shell 11 and a bottom shell 12. The base station shell 11 itself defines an accommodation space 1a. The base station shell 11 is connected to the bottom shell 12, and the two together define a flow guide space 1b.
[0074] Exemplarily, the outer circumferential surface of the top of the base station shell 11 is recessed to form the aforementioned accommodation space 1a. The accommodation space 1a can be divided into a plurality of accommodation grooves (not shown in the figure) according to the number of the rolling brushes of the scrubber, one accommodation groove corresponds to one rolling brush, and one accommodation groove is adapted to part of the outer contour of the rolling brush.
[0075] Exemplarily, the top periphery of the bottom shell 12 is provided with an embedded groove (not shown in the figure), and the bottom periphery of the base station shell 11 is embedded in the embedded groove and is in interference fit with the top periphery of the bottom shell 12, so that the base station shell 11 and the bottom shell 12 together form the aforementioned flow guide space 1b. Of course, the specific connection mode between the base station shell 11 and the bottom shell 12 is not limited to this, as long as the connection reliability between the base station shell 11 and the bottom shell 12 can be met. For example, in other embodiments, the base station shell 11 and the bottom shell 12 can adopt but are not limited to screwing, buckling, bonding, abutting, one-piece forming, etc.
[0076] As shown in Figure 4 In some embodiments, the base station shell 11 itself further defines an open cavity 1c. Further, the base station shell 11 itself further defines a liquid guide groove 1d. Along the gravity direction G, the accommodation space 1a, the liquid guide groove 1d, the open cavity 1c and the flow guide space 1b are arranged in sequence.
[0077] As shown in Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, at least one flow hole 1aa is provided at the bottom of the receiving space 1a, and at least one flow hole 1aa is spaced apart along a direction parallel to the rotation axis 3a. Further, along a direction opposite to the direction of gravity G, the position of at least one flow hole 1aa is lower than the bottom wall of other parts of the receiving space 1a. The advantage of this arrangement is that the residual sewage after the roller brush cleaning is easily collected at the flow hole 1aa under the action of gravity, and then flows into the liquid storage chamber from the flow hole 1aa.
[0078] Meanwhile, the top of the liquid storage tank 4 is provided with an opening 4a. Along the direction of gravity G, each flow hole 1aa corresponds to the opening 4a. Each flow hole 1aa is directly connected to the liquid storage cavity to collect the sewage in the storage space 1a, thereby keeping the roller brush clean.
[0079] Of course, the connection between the liquid storage tank 4 and the containing space 1a is not limited to this; each flow hole 1aa can also be indirectly connected to the liquid storage cavity. For example... Figure 4 As shown, alternatively, in some other embodiments, the base station body 1 defines a liquid guiding channel 1d. Along the direction of gravity G, the liquid guiding channel 1d is located between the receiving space 1a and the liquid storage cavity, and each opening 4a can be connected to the liquid storage cavity through the liquid guiding channel 1d. In this case, along the direction of gravity G, at least one flow hole 1aa may not correspond to the opening 4a.
[0080] To improve the situation where dirt in the storage tank 4 clogs the drain outlet of the storage tank 4, in some embodiments, a filter screen or other filter element can be installed at the opening 4a of the storage tank to filter out dirt such as hair contained in the sewage flowing into the storage chamber.
[0081] It is understood that the shapes of the flow hole 1aa and the opening 4a are not specifically limited in the embodiments of this application, as long as they can allow sewage to pass through the containing space 1a. Examples of flow holes 1aa that meet this requirement include oval holes, circular holes, rectangular holes, and prismatic holes. Examples of openings that meet this requirement include elongated openings and oval openings.
[0082] like Figure 2 As shown, to reduce the volume occupied by the cleaning base station, in some embodiments, both the first air outlet 11a and the second air outlet 11b are located above the guide space 1b. Because the first air outlet 11a and / or the second air outlet 11b are longitudinally distributed with the guide space 1b, the lateral space occupied by the cleaning base station is reduced, thereby reducing the volume occupied by the cleaning base station.
[0083] Exemplarily, the base station body 1 comprises a first side wall 101 facing into the containing space 1a. The first air outlet 11a is spaced apart from the first side wall 101, and the number of the first air outlet 11a is one or more. When the number of the first air outlet 11a is one, the first air outlet 11a extends along a direction parallel to the rotation axis 3a of the fan 3; when the number of the first air outlet 11a is more than one, the number of the first air outlet 11a is spaced apart along a direction parallel to the rotation axis 3a of the fan 3, and can be arranged in an up-down relationship, which can increase the air outlet area and improve the drying efficiency.
[0084] Exemplarily, the base station body 1 comprises a second side wall 102 facing into the containing space 1a, and the second side wall 102 is oppositely arranged to the first side wall 101. The second air outlet 11b is spaced apart from the second side wall 102, wherein the arrangement mode of the second air outlet 11b is substantially the same as that of the first air outlet 11a. For the arrangement mode of the second air outlet 11b, reference can be made to the related description of the first air outlet 11a, which will not be repeated here.
[0085] It should be noted that the aforementioned first side wall 101 can specifically include one side wall of the base station housing 11 facing both the containing space 1a and the flow guide space 1b, and one side wall of the bottom shell 12 facing the flow guide space 1b; and the second side wall 102 can specifically include the other side wall of the base station housing 11 facing both the containing space 1a and the flow guide space 1b, and the other side wall of the bottom shell 12 facing the flow guide space 1b.
[0086] As shown in Figure 1 or Figure 2 To further improve the drying efficiency of the cleaning base station, in some embodiments, the cleaning base station comprises a flexible enclosure 5. The flexible enclosure 5 is connected to the base station body 1 and is configured to at least partially enclose the gap between the cleaning device and the base station body 1 when the roll brush of the cleaning device is contained in the containing space 1a. Exemplarily, the flexible enclosure 5 is made of soft rubber, which is fixed to the base station housing 11 by, but not limited to, adhesion, and is arranged around the outer periphery of the containing space 1a. When the roll brush of the cleaning device is contained in the containing space 1a, part of the flexible enclosure 5 overlaps part of the cleaning device. At this time, the base station housing 11, the flexible enclosure 5 and part of the cleaning device collectively enclose a relatively closed space, reducing the airflow blown from the first air outlet 11a and the second air outlet 11b from escaping to the external environment, thereby further improving the drying efficiency of the cleaning base station.
[0087] As shown in Figure 5 or Figure 6As shown, the air volume of the uniform first air outlet 11a and the second air outlet 11b, in some embodiments, at least one first flow guide air duct 1ba and at least one second flow guide air duct 1bb are symmetrically arranged along the direction of the rotation axis. Specifically, the air inlet of each first flow guide air duct 1ba and the air inlet of each second flow guide air duct 1bb are both directed towards the fan 3, and the air inlets of each first flow guide air duct 1ba and the air outlets of each second flow guide air duct 1bb are uniformly distributed along a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis 3a. The air outlets of each first flow guide air duct 1ba are directed towards the first side wall 101, and the air outlets of each second flow guide air duct 1bb are directed towards the second side wall 102, and the air outlets of each first flow guide air duct 1ba are uniformly distributed along the direction of the rotation axis 3a, and the air outlets of each second flow guide air duct 1bb are uniformly distributed along the direction of the rotation axis 3a.
[0088] Exemplarily, the flow guide assembly 2 comprises at least two partitions. The at least two partitions are arranged in the flow guide space 1b and symmetrically arranged along the direction of the rotation axis. Among them, each partition is curvedly extended in an arc shape, and the greater the curvature of the partition away from the rotation axis. For example, the at least two partitions comprise a first partition 21 and a second partition 22. The first partition 21 and the second partition 22 are both curvedly extended towards the direction away from the rotation axis 3a of the fan 3 to the first side wall 101 or the second side wall 102. The first partition 21 is arranged close to the rotation axis 3a of the fan, and extends from the air inlet to the air outlet of each flow guide air duct, which is approximately a circular arc. The second partition 22 is arranged away from the rotation axis 3a of the fan relative to the first partition 21, and extends from the air inlet to the air outlet of each flow guide air duct, which is approximately a semicircle.
[0089] It can be understood that the embodiments of the present application do not specifically limit the connection mode between the flow guide assembly 2 and the base station body 1, as long as the flow guide assembly 2 can meet the requirement of separating the flow guide space 1b into at least one first flow guide air duct 1ba and at least one second flow guide air duct 1bb. For example, the flow guide assembly 2 can be integrally formed with the base station body 1, that is, the at least two partitions are integrally formed with the base station shell 11 or the bottom shell 12; for example, as shown in the figure, the flow guide assembly 2 can be installed and fixed to the bottom shell 12 as a separate structural member, that is, the at least two partitions are detachably arranged on the bottom shell 12 and form each first flow guide air duct 1ba and each second flow guide air duct 1bb with the bottom shell 12. The connection mode between the partitions and the bottom shell 12 is not specifically limited in the embodiments of the present application, for example, the partitions are abutted on the bottom shell 12 through sealing strips, or the bottom shell 12 is provided with insertion slots for the partitions, and each partition is partially inserted into each insertion slot. Figure 5
[0090] Of course, the way to achieve uniform air volume of the first air outlet 11a and the second air outlet 11b is not limited to this. For example, in other embodiments, the flow guide assembly includes a third partition plate 23. The third partition plate 23 is arranged in the middle of the flow guide space 1b and extends substantially along the rotation axis 3a of the fan 3. In this way, the third partition plate 23 divides the flow guide space 1b into the first flow guide air duct 1ba and the second flow guide air duct 1bb which are symmetrically distributed. The airflow blown out by the fan 3 can uniformly enter different flow guide air ducts, so that the first air outlet 11a and the second air outlet 11b have more uniform air volume. It can be understood that the connection mode between the third partition plate 23 and the bottom shell is similar to the connection mode between the aforementioned partition plates and the bottom shell, which will not be described here.
[0091] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 Please refer to Figure 2 To further improve the drying efficiency of the roller brush, in some embodiments, the cleaning base station includes a heating member 6. The heating member 6 is fixedly connected to the base station body 1 and located between the fan 3 and the flow guide assembly 2. For example, the heating member 6 is screwed to the bottom shell 12 and located between the air outlet side of the fan 3 and the air inlets of the first flow guide air duct 1ba and the second flow guide air duct 1bb. The heating member 6 is configured to heat the airflow generated by the fan 3. In this way, the airflow generated by the fan 3 becomes hot airflow after being heated by the heating member 6. The hot airflow is guided through the first flow guide air duct 1ba and the second flow guide air duct 1bb and then blown into the containing space 1a from the first air outlet 11a and the second air outlet 11b. This can dry the roller brush of the scrubber, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the roller brush.
[0092] In some embodiments, the heating member 6 is a PTC heater which includes at least one heating sheet 601 and at least two heat-conducting fins 602. The at least two heat-conducting fins 602 are wavy and bent, and the heating sheet 601 is arranged between adjacent two heat-conducting fins 602. After the PTC heater is powered on, the heating sheet 601 will quickly heat up, and the heat will be transferred to the heat-conducting fins 602. Because the contact area between the heat-conducting fins 602 and the air is large, the heat on the heat-conducting fins 602 can heat the airflow passing through the inside of the heat-conducting fins 602.
[0093] For example, the heating sheet 601 and the heat-conducting fin 602 are bonded by high-temperature silicone material.
[0094] For example, the heating sheet 601 is made of semiconductor ceramic material, and the heat-conducting fin 602 is made of metal material. For example, the heating sheet 601 is made of BaTiO3-based semiconductor ceramic material, and the heat-conducting fin 602 is made of copper alloy or aluminum alloy material.
[0095] It can be understood that the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific structure of the heating element 6, which can meet the airflow generated by the heating fan 3. For example, in other embodiments, the heating element 6 includes a heating wire and a mica sheet. The heating wire directly generates heat after being electrified, and the mica sheet uniformly dissipates heat while supporting the heating wire. The heating wire and the mica sheet jointly act to conduct heat to the surrounding air through heat radiation, thereby heating the airflow passing therethrough. In addition, the heating element 6 can also use a self-heating heating element 6, which will not be described here.
[0096] As shown in Figure 5 or Figure 6 In some embodiments, the heating element 6 covers the air inlet of the first flow guide air duct 1ba and the air inlet of the second flow guide air duct 1bb, so that the hot airflow can be uniformly dispersed into each flow guide air duct. For example, when the number of the first flow guide air duct 1ba and the second flow guide air duct 1bb is one, the heating element 6 covers the air inlet of a first flow guide air duct 1ba and the air inlet of a second flow guide air duct 1bb. When the number of the first flow guide air duct 1ba and the second flow guide air duct 1bb is at least two, the heating element 6 covers the air inlets of each first flow guide air duct 1ba and each second flow guide air duct 1bb.
[0097] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 To optimize the drying efficiency of the cleaning base station, in some embodiments, the cleaning base station includes a temperature sensor 7 and a temperature collection terminal 8. The temperature collection terminal 8 is electrically connected to the temperature sensor 7, and the temperature sensor 7 and the heating element 6 are both electrically connected to the controller 9 of the base station body. The temperature collection terminal 8 is arranged at the air outlet of the first flow guide air duct 1ba and / or the air outlet of the second flow guide air duct 1bb. The sensing end of the temperature sensor 7 cooperates with the temperature collection terminal 8 to collect the temperature of the temperature collection terminal 8 in real time.
[0098] Exemplarily, the temperature collection terminal 8 is a metal shaft, and the bottom shell 12 is provided with a through slot 121b and a wire hole which are adapted to the shape of the metal shaft. The through slot 121b is located at the air outlet of the second flow guide air duct 1bb. The spherical head of the metal shaft is arranged in the through slot 121b, and the flat end is welded with a wire. The wire passes through the wire hole and is electrically connected to the temperature sensor 7 outside the flow guide space 1b through the wire hole.
[0099] In this technical solution, the cleaning base station can flexibly adjust the heating temperature of the heating element 6 according to the actual use situation. When the controller 9 of the base station body determines that the temperature of the airflow at the air outlet reaches the set temperature according to the temperature collected by the temperature sensor 7, the heating element 6 stops heating the airflow.
[0100] Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9Alternatively, in some embodiments, the number of heating elements 6 is two, both of which are configured to heat the airflow generated by the fan 3. Exemplarily, both heating elements 6 are PTC heaters.
[0101] A heating element 6 is fixedly connected to the base station body 1 and located at the air outlet of each first air duct 1ba. For example, a heating element 6 is sandwiched between the first side wall 101 and the side wall of the bottom shell 12 facing the first side wall 101, and covers the air outlet of each first air duct 1ba.
[0102] Another heating element 6 is fixedly connected to the base station body 1 and located at the air outlet of each second air duct 1bb. Exemplarily, the other heating element 6 is sandwiched between the second side wall 102 and the side wall of the bottom shell 12 facing the second side wall 102, and covers the air outlet of each second air duct 1bb.
[0103] In this way, the two heating elements 6 can be combined to create multiple heating modes to meet the drying needs of the roller brush in different scenarios. When the floor scrubber has a dual roller brush, the two heating elements 6 can independently heat the airflow passing through their respective air ducts to output hot airflows of different temperatures to dry the dual roller brushes with different humidity levels. Alternatively, the two heating elements 6 can heat simultaneously to quickly dry the roller brush.
[0104] In order to monitor the airflow temperature of the first air outlet 11a and / or the second air outlet 11b, in some embodiments, the temperature sensor 7 is disposed between a heating element 6 and the first air outlet 11a, and / or the temperature sensor 7 is disposed between another heating element 6 and the second air outlet 11b.
[0105] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 or Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the base station body 1 includes two protruding ribs 121 disposed within the flow guiding space 1b. One protruding rib 121 is close to the first sidewall 101, defining a first drainage groove 121c between the protruding rib 121 and the first sidewall 101, and the bottom of the first drainage groove 121c has at least one through hole (not shown). The other protruding rib 121 is close to the second sidewall 102, defining a second drainage groove 121d between the protruding rib 121 and the second sidewall 101, and the bottom of the second drainage groove 121d has at least one through hole. In this way, even if residual sewage splashes into the interior of the guide air duct from the first air outlet 11a and the second air outlet 11b, the sewage is confined within the first drain tank 121c and the second drain tank 121d, and can be discharged outside the cleaning base station through the first through hole and the second through hole. This improves the situation where residual sewage easily splashes into the interior of the guide air duct from the first air outlet 11a and the second air outlet 11b during roller brush self-cleaning or other situations, affecting the normal operation of the fan 3 or the heating element 6.
[0106] Further, the through slot 121b and the wire hole are both located in the second row of liquid grooves 121d and are located higher than the second through hole in the direction opposite to the gravity direction G.
[0107] Further, in the gravity direction G, the projection of the first air outlet 11a is located in the first row of liquid grooves 121c, and the projection of the second air outlet 11b is located in the second row of liquid grooves 121d.
[0108] To improve the user experience of the cleaning base station, in some embodiments, the cleaning base station comprises a fragrance box (not shown in the figure). The fragrance box is arranged in the first guide air duct 1ba and / or the second guide air duct 1bb, so that the air flow blown from the first air outlet 11a and / or the second air outlet 11b has the fragrance of the fragrance box, which can make the user feel that the dried rolling brush is cleaner.
[0109] Based on the same technical concept, the present application also provides a cleaning system comprising the cleaning base station of any one of the above embodiments and a cleaning device used in cooperation with the cleaning base station. The cleaning device is mainly used for cleaning and adsorbing the dirt on the ground and the carpet, and after the adsorption is completed, it is moved to the docking position of the cleaning base station by the walking mechanism of the cleaning device itself or by external force, and the cleaning base station dries the rolling brush of the cleaning device. In addition, the cleaning base station can also suck the dirt collected by the cleaning device and charge the cleaning device.

Since the utility model can be embodied in various forms without departing from the spirit or essence of the utility model, it should be understood that the above embodiments are not limited to any of the above details, but should be interpreted broadly in the spirit and scope defined by the appended claims, and therefore all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the claims or their equivalents should be covered by the appended claims.
