[0047] Please see Figures 1-4The base station body 20 is mounted on the chassis 10. This application does not limit the position of the base station body 20 on the chassis 10. In one optional embodiment, the base station body 20 is located at the front end 10a of the chassis 10. The front end 10a and the rear end 10b of the chassis 10 are positioned opposite each other along the Y direction. The second charging module of the self-propelled device is located at the rear end of the self-propelled device. During the process of the self-propelled device moving to precise alignment on the chassis 10, the self-propelled device moves forward from the rear end 10b of the chassis 10 to the front end 10a of the chassis 10.

[0048] In other embodiments, the base station body 20 is disposed on a first side 10c of the chassis 10. The first side 10c and the second side 10d of the chassis 10 are arranged opposite each other along the X direction. The second charging module of the self-propelled device is disposed on the first side of the self-propelled device.

[0049] In other embodiments, the base station body 20 is disposed on the second side 10d of the chassis 10. The first side 10c of the chassis 10 and the second side 10d of the chassis 10 are disposed opposite each other along the X direction. The second charging module of the self-propelled device is disposed on the second side of the self-propelled device.

[0050] Please see Figure 5 The base station body 20 includes a housing 21 and a power module 22 and a first charging module 23 disposed within the housing 21.

[0051] In this embodiment, the housing 21 is located at the front end 10a of the chassis 10, and the housing 21 can be fixedly mounted on the chassis 10. The power module 22 and the first charging module 23 are located inside the housing 21.

[0052] The power module 22 is electrically connected to the first charging module 23. The power module 22 supplies power to the first charging module 23. The power module 22 may include, but is not limited to, a battery, or a relay module electrically connected to a power interface.

[0053] The first charging module 23 is used to interface with the second charging module of the self-propelled device to supply power to the self-propelled device. Optionally, the first charging module 23 may include, but is not limited to, a first charging electrode, and the second charging module may include, but is not limited to, a second charging electrode.

[0054] Furthermore, the base station body 20 also includes a main control module (not shown), which is electrically connected to the power supply module 22 and the first charging module 23. The main control module is used to control the charging process, including but not limited to voltage regulation and charging status monitoring (such as overcharge protection and power-off control). Furthermore, the base station body 20 also includes a power management unit (not shown), which is used to convert externally input electrical energy into voltage and current suitable for the robot and distribute it to different components.

[0055] The storage box 30 is mounted on the chassis 10 or the base station body 20. The storage box 30 is used to store tools or accessories.

[0056] In one alternative implementation, please refer to Figure 6 The storage box 30 is located on the chassis 10. The storage box 30 can be fixedly located on the chassis 10 or movably connected to the chassis 10. When the storage box 30 is located on the chassis 10, on the one hand, the tools or accessories of the self-propelled equipment can be stored in the storage box 30 to avoid the risk of loss of tools or accessories. On the other hand, since the self-propelled equipment is generally placed in the charging base station 100 for charging, when users need to maintain the self-propelled equipment, they do not need to take maintenance tools from indoors to outdoors, and can conveniently and quickly take out tools or accessories from the storage box 30 on the chassis 10.

[0057] Furthermore, the storage box 30 can be located on the same side or different side of the chassis 10 as the base station body 20. For example, when the base station body 20 is located at the front end 10a of the chassis 10, the storage box 30 can be located on the first side 10c, the second side 10d, or the front end 10a of the chassis 10, to avoid the storage box 30 being located on the entry path of the self-propelled device. When the base station body 20 is located on the first side of the chassis 10, the storage box 30 can be located at the front end 10a or the second side of the chassis 10. Furthermore, when the self-propelled device reaches the entry endpoint, the outer shell of the storage box 30 abuts against the self-propelled device, and the base station body 20 and the storage box 30 together limit the movement of the self-propelled device.

[0058] For another alternative implementation, please refer to Figure 5 The storage box 30 is mounted on the base station body 20. The storage box 30 can be fixedly mounted on the chassis 10 or movably connected to the base station body 20. Furthermore, the storage box 30 can be housed within the housing 21, further utilizing the space within the housing 21 to store tools or accessories. When the storage box 30 is mounted on the base station body 20, on the one hand, the tools or accessories of the self-propelled device are stored inside the storage box 30 to avoid the risk of loss; on the other hand, since the self-propelled device is generally placed in the charging base station 100 for charging, when users need to maintain the self-propelled device, they do not need to retrieve maintenance tools from indoors to outdoors, and can conveniently and quickly retrieve tools or accessories from the storage box 30 on the base station body 20.

The storage box 30 is arranged on the chassis 10 or the base station main body 20. The storage box 30 is used to store tools or accessories. Since the storage box 30 is arranged on the charging base station 100, on the one hand, the tools or accessories of the self-propelled device are stored in the storage box 30 to avoid the risk of loss of tools or accessories. On the other hand, since the self-propelled device is generally placed on the charging base station 100 for charging, when the user needs to maintain the self-propelled device, there is no need to fetch the maintenance tools from indoors to outdoors, and the tools or accessories can be conveniently and quickly taken out from the storage box 30 of the charging base station 100. In other words, the present application adds a storage box 30 for accessories and maintenance tools on the charging base station ......

[0060] Optionally, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the housing 21 has a receiving cavity ...... Figure 5 , the receiving cavity 21a is arranged adjacent to the power supply module 22. Further, the receiving cavity 21a is arranged adjacent to the power supply module 22 to reduce the waste of space inside the housing 21, and as much as possible, the space inside the housing 21 is used as the receiving cavity 21a. When the size of the receiving cavity 21a is satisfied, the size of the base station main body 20 is miniaturized as much as possible.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the storage box 30 is movably arranged in the receiving cavity 21a. Optionally, the storage box 30 is in a box shape, and the storage box 30 can accommodate tools and / or accessories. Further optionally, the storage box 30 includes a storage opening.

The storage box 30 is also slidably connected to the housing 21. By pulling the storage box 30 relative to the housing 21, the storage opening of the storage box 30 is closed, i.e., the storage box 30 is in a closed state, allowing tools or accessories to be stored inside the housing 21 of the base station body 20, preventing loss, eliminating the need for users to search for them when needed, and effectively protecting the tools or accessories.

[0064] Optional, please refer to Figure 9 The storage box 30 is rotatably connected to the housing 21. By rotating the storage box 30 relative to the housing 21, at least a portion of the storage opening of the storage box 30 is exposed, i.e., the storage box 30 is in an open state, facilitating the placement or retrieval of tools or accessories within the storage box 30. The storage box 30 is also rotatably connected to the housing 21. By rotating the storage box 30 relative to the housing 21, the storage opening of the storage box 30 is closed, i.e., the storage box 30 is in a closed state, allowing tools or accessories to be stored within the housing 21 of the base station body 20. This prevents loss, eliminates the need for users to search for them, and effectively protects the tools or accessories.

[0065] Optional, please refer to Figure 10 The inner wall of the receiving cavity 21a is provided with a first engaging member 201, and the outer wall of the storage box 30 is provided with a second engaging member 202. When the storage box 30 is placed in the receiving cavity 21a, the first engaging member 201 and the second engaging member 202 engage to secure the storage box 30 within the receiving cavity 21a. By separating the first engaging member 201 and the second engaging member 202, at least a portion of the storage box 30 can be removed from the receiving cavity 21a, exposing at least a portion of the storage opening of the storage box 30, i.e., the storage box 30 is in an open state.

[0066] Furthermore, there are two first locking components 201, which are located on opposite sides of the inner wall of the receiving cavity 21a. There are also two second locking components 202, which are located on opposite sides of the outer wall of the storage box 30.

[0067] Of course, in other embodiments, the storage box 30 may be located outside the housing 21, and the storage box 30 may be detachably connected to the housing 21 by a snap-fit ​​mechanism.

[0068] Optional, please refer to Figure 11The inner wall of the receiving cavity 21a is provided with a first magnetic attractor 203, and the outer wall of the storage box 30 is provided with a second magnetic attractor 204. When the storage box 30 is placed in the receiving cavity 21a, the first magnetic attractor 203 and the second magnetic attractor 204 are magnetically attracted to each other to bind the storage box 30 within the receiving cavity 21a. By separating the first magnetic attractor 203 and the second magnetic attractor 204, at least a portion of the storage box 30 can be moved out of the receiving cavity 21a, exposing at least a portion of the storage opening of the storage box 30, i.e., the storage box 30 is in an open state.

[0069] Of course, in other embodiments, the storage box 30 may be located outside the housing 21, and the storage box 30 may be detachably connected to the housing 21 by magnetic attraction.

[0070] Optional, please refer to Figure 12 The first charging module 23, the receiving cavity 21a, and the power module 22 are arranged sequentially along the height direction (i.e., the aforementioned thickness direction) of the base station body 20, with the power module 22 adjacent to the chassis 10. The first charging module 23, the receiving cavity 21a, and the power module 22 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom. Optionally, the height of the first charging module 23 needs to be compatible with the height of the power module 22, which needs to be set at a preset height. The power module 22 is adjacent to the chassis 10, thus there is a certain distance between the first charging module 23 and the power module 22. By placing the receiving cavity 21a between the first charging module 23 and the power module 22, the space between them can be fully utilized, reducing space waste.

[0071] Optional, please refer to Figure 12 The storage box 30 may have a length dimension greater than or equal to the length dimension of the power module 22 in order to accommodate relatively long tools and accessories.

[0072] Furthermore, the storage box 30 is disposed between the first charging module 23 and the power module 22. If the dimension between the first charging module 23 and the power module 22 in the height direction is relatively small, the storage box 30 can be slidably connected to the inner wall of the storage cavity in the inclined direction, or the storage box 30 can be rotatably connected to the inner wall of the storage cavity, so that even if the dimension between the first charging module 23 and the power module 22 in the height direction is relatively small, it can still accommodate tools or accessories of relatively long dimensions.

[0073] Optionally, the number of storage boxes 30 can be multiple. Optionally, the storage boxes 30 can have different sizes. For example, a storage box 30 capable of storing long tools or accessories is defined as a first storage box. For example, a storage box 30 for storing short tools or accessories is defined as a second storage box. The first storage box can be arranged along the height direction, and the second storage box can be arranged along the width or length direction.

[0074] Optional, please refer to Figure 7 The first charging module 23, the power module 22, and the receiving cavity 21a are arranged sequentially along the height direction of the base station body 20. The receiving cavity 21a is also arranged adjacent to the chassis 10.

[0075] Optionally, the height of the first charging module 23 needs to be adapted to the height of the second charging module. The first charging module 23 needs to be set at a preset height, and the power module 22 is set adjacent to the first charging module 23 to facilitate electrical connection between the power module 22 and the first charging module 23, thereby reducing the size of the electrical connection wire between the power module 22 and the first charging module 23.

[0076] The storage box 30 is located in the space between the power module 22 and the chassis 10, which can make full use of the space between the power module 22 and the chassis 10 and reduce space waste.

[0077] Optional, please refer to Figure 7 The storage box 30 can be larger in length than the power module 22 in length, so as to accommodate relatively long tools and accessories. Since the storage cavity is close to the chassis 10, it is convenient to set the storage box 30 to be larger in length than the power module 22 in length.

[0078] Furthermore, the storage box 30 is disposed between the power module 22 and the chassis 10, provided that the dimension between the power module 22 and the chassis 10 in the height direction is relatively small. The storage box 30 can be slidably connected to the inner wall of the storage cavity in the inclined direction, or the storage box 30 can be rotatably connected to the inner wall of the storage cavity, so that even if the dimension between the power module 22 and the chassis 10 in the height direction is relatively small, it can still accommodate tools or accessories of relatively long dimensions.

[0079] Optional, please refer to Figure 13 The first charging module 23 and the power module 22 are arranged sequentially along the height direction of the base station body 20, and the power module 22 is arranged adjacent to the chassis 10. The receiving cavity 21a and the power module 22 are arranged along the width direction of the base station body 20.

[0080] Specifically, for some charging base stations 100 with relatively low height of the first charging module 23, a receiving cavity 21a can be provided on one or both sides of the power module 22 and the first charging module 23 along the width direction, and a storage box 30 can be placed in the receiving cavity 21a. In this way, relatively long tools or accessories can be placed in the storage box 30.

[0081] Further optional information can be found in [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 14There are two receiving cavities 21a. The two receiving cavities 21a are respectively located on both sides of the power module 22. One receiving cavity 21a, the power module 22 and the other receiving cavity 21a are arranged sequentially along the width direction of the base station body 20, so as to accommodate a larger number of tools and accessories.

[0082] The first charging module 23 and the power module 22 described in the foregoing embodiments are arranged along the height direction, including but not limited to the first charging module 23, the power module 22 and the chassis 10 being arranged along the height direction, or the two first charging modules 23 being arranged in a V-shape from the location of the power module 22 toward the side where the self-propelled device is located.

[0083] In conjunction with any of the foregoing embodiments, please refer to Figure 15 and Figure 16 The housing 21 includes a first surface 211 and a second surface 212 disposed opposite to each other. The first surface 211 faces the side where the self-propelled device is located. The opening of the receiving cavity 21a is located on the second surface 212. In other words, the opening of the receiving cavity 21a is located on the back side of the base station body 20.

[0084] Specifically, the opening of the receiving cavity 21a is located on the side where the front end 10a of the chassis 10 is located. The side where the opening of the receiving cavity 21a is located is opposite to the side where the self-propelled device is located.
