[0030] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this specification have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of this application. The term "and / or" as used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0031] Please see Figure 1 This application provides a cleaning robot 100, which includes a body 1, a drive assembly 2, a rudder plate 3, a trash basket 4, a rolling element 5, and a power supply 6. The drive assembly 2 is located at the bottom of the body 1 and is used to drive the cleaning robot 100. The rudder plate 3 is located at the bottom of the body 1 and serves to guide airflow and maintain the directional stability of the cleaning robot 100. The trash basket 4 is detachably installed inside the body 1 and is used to collect trash. The rolling element 5 is installed in the trash basket 4 and can rotate relative to the trash basket. The rolling element 5 facilitates the movement of trash into the trash basket and prevents trash from floating out. The power supply 6 is located inside the body 1 and is electrically connected to the drive assembly 2, providing power to the drive assembly 2.
[0032] For the above-mentioned body 1, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The body 1 includes a housing 11 and a top cover 12. The top cover 12 is detachably mounted on the housing 11, and the top cover 12 and the body 1 together enclose a receiving cavity 13.
[0033] The housing 11 is roughly elliptical in shape, which helps reduce the driving resistance of the cleaning robot 100. The housing 11 is provided with a collection port 111, a filter port 112, and a step portion 113. The collection port 111 is located at one end of the housing 11 and connects to the receiving cavity 13. The direction from the other end of the housing 11 towards one end is the forward direction of the cleaning robot 100, which facilitates the entry of surface debris into the housing 11 through the collection port 111. The filter port 112 is located at the bottom of the housing 11 and connects to the receiving cavity 13, used to drain liquid from the receiving cavity 13. The step portion 113 is located on the wall of the receiving cavity 13 at the end away from the bottom of the housing 11.
[0034] In some embodiments, there are multiple water filter ports 112, which are spaced apart along one end of the housing 11 to the other.
[0035] The top cover 12 is approximately elliptical in shape and is detachably mounted on the stepped portion 113, allowing it to be recessed into the housing 11, thus reducing the space occupied by the housing 1. The top cover 12 is used to open or close the receiving cavity 13. Specifically, when the top cover 12 is removed from the housing 11, it opens the receiving cavity 13; when it is mounted on the stepped portion 113, it closes the receiving cavity 13. The top cover 12 has a second opening 121 that communicates with the receiving cavity 13.
[0036] In some embodiments, the cleaning robot 100 includes a hinge connected to the top cover 12 and the housing 11. The hinge is used to allow the top cover 12 to rotate relative to the housing 11 so that the top cover 12 can open or close the receiving cavity 13.
[0037] For the aforementioned driver component 2, please refer to Figure 2 The drive assembly 2 includes a first drive member 21 and a propeller 22. The first drive member 21 is disposed at one end of the bottom of the housing 11, and the output shaft of the first drive member 21 is connected to the propeller 22. The first drive member 21 is used to drive the propeller 22 to rotate, thereby driving the cleaning robot 100 to move. The central axis of the propeller 22 coincides with the axis of symmetry of the housing 11.
[0038] In some embodiments, the bottom of the housing 11 is provided with a mounting groove, the first drive member 21 is disposed in the mounting groove, and the output shaft of the first drive member 21 extends out of the mounting groove.
[0039] In some embodiments, the first driving element 21 is a motor.
[0040] For the aforementioned rudder plate 3, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The rudder plate 3 is located at the other end of the bottom of the housing 11, so that the rudder plate 3 is located behind the drive assembly 2 along the forward direction of the cleaning robot 100.
[0041] For trash can 4 mentioned above, please refer to Figure 4 The trash basket 4 is detachably installed in the receiving cavity 13, allowing users to easily remove or place it inside the cavity for convenient garbage disposal. The trash basket 4 has a first opening 41, a drainage hole 42, and a handle 43. The first opening 41 is located at one end of the trash basket 4 and is aligned and connected to the collection port 111, allowing garbage to enter the trash basket 4 through the collection port 111 and the first opening 41. The drainage hole 42 is used to drain liquid from the trash basket. A portion of the handle 43 extends from the second opening 121 into the receiving cavity 13, facilitating the lifting of the trash basket 4.
[0042] In some embodiments, the number of filter holes 42 is multiple, which facilitates faster drainage of liquid from the trash can.
[0043] For the aforementioned rolling element 5, please refer to Figure 2 The rolling element 5 is located at one end of the trash can 4, close to the first opening 41, and can rotate relative to the trash can 4. When the rolling element 5 rotates, it also provides power to the cleaning robot 100.
[0044] In some embodiments, the cleaning robot 100 further includes a second drive member and a first gear. The rolling member 5 is provided with the second gear, which is located outside the trash basket 4. The second gear meshes with the first gear. The first gear is connected to the output shaft of the second drive member. The second drive member is used to drive the first gear to rotate, thereby causing the rolling member 5 to rotate, which facilitates the movement of trash into the trash basket and prevents trash in the trash basket from floating out.
[0045] For power supply 6 mentioned above, please refer to Figure 2 The power supply 6 is located in the accommodating cavity 13 and is electrically connected to the first driving member 21. The power supply 6 is used to provide power to the first driving member 21.
[0046] In some embodiments, the power supply 6 is also electrically connected to the second drive unit, and the power supply 6 is used to provide electrical energy to the second drive unit.
[0047] In some embodiments, the power supply 6 is a rechargeable power supply, allowing it to be reused. Furthermore, the body 1 is provided with a charging interface electrically connected to the power supply 6, which is used to connect to an external power source to replenish the power supply 6's power. In other embodiments, the power supply 6 is detachably disposed in the receiving cavity 13, allowing it to be removed from the cavity 13 and electrically connected to a charging device for further power replenishment.
[0048] In this embodiment, the cleaning robot 100 includes a body 1, a drive assembly 2, and a rudder plate 3. The drive assembly 2 includes a first drive member 21 and a propeller 22. The first drive member 21 is disposed at the bottom of the body 1, and the propeller 22 is connected to the first drive member 21. The first drive member 21 drives the propeller 22 to rotate. The rudder plate 3 is disposed at the bottom of the body 1. Compared with a cleaning robot 100 with dual drive assemblies 2, the cleaning robot 100 has a simplified structure and reduces maintenance costs, power consumption, and manufacturing costs by using a single drive assembly 2 and rudder plate 3.
