The cleaning mechanism 1000 includes a mopping assembly 100, a replenishing liquid assembly 200, and a wastewater assembly 300. The mopping assembly 100 includes a mopping body 110. The replenishing liquid assembly 200 includes a replenishing port 201 facing the mopping body 110. The wastewater assembly 300 includes a scraper 310, a scraping groove 320, and a drain valve 330. The scraper 310 is located on one side of the mopping body 110 and is in interference contact with it. The scraping groove 320 has a first opening 321 and a second opening 322. The scraper 310 is disposed in the first opening 321. The drain valve 330 is closably disposed in the second opening 322. The cleaning liquid provided by the replenishing liquid assembly 200 can enter the scraping groove 320 through the replenishing port 201 to rinse the dirt in the scraping groove 320, and then be discharged through the second opening 322.
[0040] The cleaning mechanism 1000 refers to a household appliance that can automatically clean the surface of a surface to be cleaned (such as a floor) instead of manually. The cleaning mechanism 1000 has at least a mopping function, and in some embodiments, it may also have sweeping and / or vacuuming functions.
[0041] The mopping body 110 includes a rolling mopping body. Compared with the flat mopping body, the rolling mopping body can clean the surface of the item to be cleaned by the high-speed rotating mop, which helps to improve cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect.
[0042] The replenishment component 200 is used to provide cleaning fluid to clean the surface of the mop body 110. The replenishment component 200 includes a replenishment port 201 for spraying cleaning fluid to clean the surface of the mop body 110. In some embodiments, the replenishment component 200 includes one or more replenishment ports 201. In some embodiments, during the cleaning process of the cleaning mechanism 1000 cleaning the surface of the object to be cleaned, the replenishment component 200 cleans the surface of the mop body 110 through the replenishment port 201, achieving self-cleaning of the mop body 110 of the cleaning mechanism 1000 and improving the user experience. In some embodiments, the replenishment component 200 includes a replenishment tank, a replenishment pipe, a replenishment pump, and a spray nozzle. The replenishment tank stores cleaning fluid and, driven by the replenishment pump, delivers the cleaning fluid to the spray nozzle through the replenishment pipe. The spray nozzle cleans the surface of the mop body 110 by spraying the cleaning fluid. In some embodiments, the spray nozzle includes one or more replenishment ports 201. In some embodiments, the replenishment assembly 200 may further include a heating element to heat the cleaning fluid in the replenishment tank, so that the replenishment assembly 200 cleans the mop body 110 with the hot cleaning fluid, thereby improving the cleaning ability of the cleaning mechanism 1000 to clean the surface of the object to be cleaned.
[0043] The scraper blade 310 is located on one side of the mopping body 110 and is in interference contact with the mopping body 110 so that it can scrape off dirt from the mopping body 110 during rotation. A scraper groove 320 is used to receive the dirt scraped off the mopping body 110 by the scraper blade 310. The scraper groove 320 has a first opening 321 and a second opening 322. The scraper groove 320 receives the dirt scraped off the mopping body 110 by the scraper blade 310 through the first opening 321. The scraper groove 320 discharges accumulated dirt through the second opening 322. The scraper blade 310 is disposed in the first opening 321 of the scraper groove 320, with one end of the scraper blade 310 protruding from the first opening 321 of the scraper groove 320 and in interference contact with the mopping body 110. In some embodiments, the wastewater assembly 300 further includes a wastewater pipe through which the scraper trough 320 transports wastewater to a wastewater tank for use with the replenishment assembly 200 to achieve the cleaning function of the mopping assembly 100 of the cleaning mechanism 1000. In some embodiments, the wastewater assembly 300 further includes a wastewater pump disposed in the wastewater pipe for driving wastewater to be transported from the scraper trough 320 to the wastewater tank. A drain valve 330 is used to control the opening and closing of the second opening 322 of the scraper trough 320. By opening the second opening 322, the scraper trough 320 can discharge accumulated dirt from the second opening 322, thereby achieving self-cleaning of the scraper trough 320 and improving the user experience. By closing the second opening 322, the scraper trough 320 can transport wastewater to the wastewater tank through the wastewater pipe. In some embodiments, the scraper trough 320 may include only one second opening 322 or multiple second openings 322. In the case where the sludge scraper 320 includes a plurality of second openings 322, a plurality of drain valves 330 are correspondingly provided in each second opening 322 for opening and closing.
[0044] The cleaning mechanism 1000 provided in the embodiments of this application controls the opening and closing of the second opening 322 of the scraper groove 320 by setting a drain valve 330. When the drain valve 330 is open, the second opening 322 of the scraper groove 320 is exposed, so that the dirt accumulated in the scraper groove 320 is discharged from the second opening 322, thereby realizing the self-cleaning of the scraper groove 320 and improving the user experience.
[0045] In some embodiments, the drain valve 330 includes a door panel 331 and a rotating shaft 333. The door panel 331 is rotatably disposed on one side of the second opening 322 via the rotating shaft 333, and the door panel 331 can be opened and closed to cover the second opening 322.
[0046] The door panel 331 is located on one side of the sludge scraping groove 320 and is spaced apart from the sludge scraping groove 320.
[0047] The embodiments of this application control the opening and closing of the second opening 322 of the scraper trough 320 by configuring the drain valve 330 as described above. When the drain valve 330 is open, the second opening 322 of the scraper trough 320 is exposed, allowing the dirt accumulated in the scraper trough 320 to be discharged from the second opening 322, thereby achieving self-cleaning of the scraper trough 320 and improving the user experience. When the drain valve 330 is closed, the second opening 322 of the scraper trough 320 is closed, allowing the dirt in the scraper trough 320 to be transported to the wastewater tank, thereby removing dirt from the surface of the mopping body 110 and improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning mechanism 1000.
[0048] In some embodiments, the drain valve 330 further includes an elastic element 332, which is pressed between the door panel 331 and the side wall of the scraper groove 320.
[0049] The elastic element 332 can be pressed through the door panel 331 to expose the second opening 322 and open the second opening 322.
[0050] In some embodiments, the door panel 331 includes a pressing portion 3311 and a cover portion 3312. The cover portion 3312 is closable and covers the second opening 322. The pressing portion 3311 is located on the side of the pivot 333 away from the cover portion 3312. The elastic member 332 is pressed between the pressing portion 3311 and the side wall of the scraper groove 320.
[0051] In this design, the pressing portion 3311 and the cover portion 3312 of the door panel 331 are disposed on both sides of the elastic member 332. The elastic member 332 can be pressed by the pressing portion 3311, causing the pressing portion 3311 of the door panel 331 to move towards the scraper groove 320, and the rotating shaft 333 rotates, causing the cover portion 3312 of the door panel 331 to move away from the scraper groove 320, thereby exposing the second opening 322 and opening the second opening 322. In some embodiments, a sealing soft rubber is also provided on the side of the cover portion 3312 near the second opening 322, which can be opened and closed to cover the second opening 322. When the sealing soft rubber covers the second opening 322, the sealing soft rubber abuts against the peripheral sidewall of the scraper groove 320 forming the second opening 322, thereby improving the sealing effect of the second opening 322 in the closed state when the drain valve 330 covers the second opening 322.
[0052] The embodiments of this application control the opening and closing of the second opening 322 of the scraper trough 320 by configuring the drain valve 330 as described above. When the drain valve 330 is open, the second opening 322 of the scraper trough 320 is exposed, allowing the dirt accumulated in the scraper trough 320 to be discharged from the second opening 322, thereby achieving self-cleaning of the scraper trough 320 and improving the user experience. When the drain valve 330 is closed, the second opening 322 of the scraper trough 320 is closed, allowing the dirt in the scraper trough 320 to be transported to the wastewater tank, thereby removing dirt from the surface of the mopping body 110 and improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning mechanism 1000.
[0053] In some embodiments, the scraper groove 320 includes a bottom wall 320c and a first side wall 320a and a second side wall 320b disposed opposite to each other, a first opening 321 located on the first side wall 320a, and a second opening 322 located on the second side wall 320b.
[0054] In embodiments of this application, by placing the second opening 322 on a second sidewall 320b opposite to the first opening 321 on the first sidewall 320a, the interference of the first opening 321 on the second opening 322 is reduced, thus simplifying the design of the scraping groove 320. In some embodiments, the cleaning mechanism 1000 has a clearance portion to avoid the drain valve 330, allowing the drain valve 330 to open and close. In some embodiments, the second opening 322 is located on the side of the second sidewall 320b near the bottom wall 320c, improving the smoothness of dirt discharge from the second opening 322.
[0055] In some embodiments, the second opening 322 may also be formed on the bottom wall 320c to reduce the design difficulty of the scraping groove 320 and improve the smoothness of the discharge of dirt from the second opening 322.
[0056] In some embodiments, the scraper groove 320 may be provided with some drainage structures to facilitate smoother discharge of dirt as it is discharged through the drainage structures and the second opening 322 in sequence. In some embodiments, the drainage structure may be a ramp structure inclined relative to the bottom wall 320c, which may be a planar structure or a curved structure.
[0057] In some embodiments, the scraper blade 310 includes a first plate portion 311 and a second plate portion 312. A bending angle is formed between the first plate portion 311 and the second plate portion 312. The first plate portion 311 is disposed within the scraper groove 320 and is fixedly disposed on the inner surface of the first sidewall 320a. The second plate portion 312 extends outward from the end of the first plate portion 311 near the first opening 321 at a bending angle, and the extension trajectory of the second plate portion 312 passes through the first opening 321 and protrudes from the first sidewall 320a.
[0058] The first plate portion 311 is detachably fixed to the scraper groove 320, for example, by bolt connection.
[0059] The embodiments of this application, through the above-described arrangement of the scraper 310, facilitate the quick installation of the scraper 310 within the scraper groove 320, and also facilitate the replacement of either the scraper 310 or the scraper groove 320.
[0060] In some embodiments, the scraper 310 is a plate body in which the first sidewall 320a extends away from the second sidewall 320b at a preset bending angle toward the edge of the first opening 321.
[0061] In the embodiments of this application, the scraper 310 is integrally formed with the scraper groove 320 as described above, which simplifies the installation process of the scraper 310.
[0062] In some embodiments, the rotation direction of the mopping body 110 is along the direction from the liquid replenishment port 201 through the first opening 321 toward the scraper 310.
[0063] In the self-cleaning state of the scraper trough 320, the scraper trough 320 stops conveying dirt to the sewage tank, the pressing part 3311 of the drain valve 330 is pressed, the pressing part 3311 moves towards the scraper trough 320, and the cover part 3312 moves away from the scraper trough 320, thereby exposing the second opening 322 and opening the second opening 322. The liquid inlet 201 sprays cleaning fluid into the mop body 110. The mop body 110 rotates towards the scraper 310 through the first opening 321 from the liquid inlet 201. The scraper groove 320 receives dirt from the mop body 110, and the dirt remaining in the scraper groove 320 is also trapped by the scraper 310 and enters the scraper groove 320. The dirt in the scraper groove 320 is then discharged through the second opening 322, realizing the self-cleaning of the scraper groove 320, reducing problems such as odor and blockage in the scraper groove 320, and improving user satisfaction.
[0064] While the cleaning unit 1000 is cleaning the object to be cleaned, the second opening 322 of the scraper groove 320 is closed by the drain valve 330, and the liquid replenishment port 201 sprays cleaning fluid into the mop body 110. The mop body 110 rotates away from the scraper groove 320 in the direction of the liquid replenishment port 201, and the scraper blade 310 presses against the mop body 110, so that the dirt enters the scraper groove 320 and is then transported to the sewage tank through the sewage pipe, thereby improving the cleaning effect on the mop body 110.
[0065] In some embodiments, a water level sensor is provided inside the scraper trough 320, and the water level sensor is configured to monitor the water level inside the scraper trough 320.
[0066] When the water level in the scraper trough 320 is detected to have reached or exceeded the preset water level, the second opening 322 of the scraper trough 320 can be opened to allow the dirt in the scraper trough 320 to be discharged, thereby improving the accuracy of the self-cleaning start time of the scraper trough 320.
[0067] In some embodiments, the mopping body 110 includes a rotating body 111 and a mop 112, the mop 112 being disposed on the outer surface of the rotating body 111, and the rotating body 111 including either a roller or a track.
[0068] The cleaning mechanism 1000 may further include a drive mechanism for driving the rotating body 111 to rotate. When the rotating body 111 is a roller, it can improve the cleaning efficiency and effect on the object to be cleaned through high-speed rotation. When the rotating body 111 is a track, it can increase the contact area with the surface of the object to be cleaned, thereby improving the cleaning effect on the surface of the object to be cleaned.
[0069] In some embodiments, the elastic element 332 includes any one of a compression spring, a torsion spring, and a spring sheet.
[0070] A compression spring is a mechanical element that stores energy by elastically deforming under axial pressure and returns to its original shape after the external force is released. A torsion spring is a mechanical element that stores elastic potential energy by bearing torsional loads and returns to its original shape after the external force is released. A sheet spring is a thin, sheet-like elastic element that stores energy by bending deformation and returns to its original shape after the external force is released.
[0071] In the embodiments of this application, the drain valve 330 is opened by the elastic element 332 to achieve self-cleaning of the scraping groove 320.

[0074] The base station 2000 is used in conjunction with the cleaning mechanism 1000, serving as a crucial component for the automation and intelligent operation of the cleaning mechanism 1000. In some cases, the base station 2000 also provides charging for the cleaning mechanism 1000. When the cleaning mechanism 1000 completes its cleaning task or its own battery is low, it returns to the base station 2000 for charging, requiring no manual intervention and offering convenient operation. In other cases, the base station 2000 also provides automatic liquid filling and emptying functions for the cleaning mechanism 1000, as well as automatic cleaning of the mopping component 100, to enhance user experience satisfaction.
[0075] The ejector mechanism 2100 is configured such that when the cleaning mechanism 1000 returns to the preset position of the base station 2000, the ejector mechanism 2100 opens the drain valve 330 of the cleaning mechanism 1000, exposing the second opening 322 of the scraper groove 320, so that the dirt in the scraper groove 320 is discharged through the second opening 322.

[0082] The embodiments of this application control the timing of opening and closing the drain valve 330 through the control component 2200 to achieve self-cleaning of the sludge scraper 320 and improve the user experience.
[0083] In some embodiments, the control component 2200 is further configured to:
[0084] In response to the water level in the scraper trough 320 of the cleaning mechanism 1000 reaching or exceeding the preset water level, the cleaning mechanism 1000 is controlled to return to the preset position of the base station 2000, and the ejection mechanism 2100 is controlled to open the drain valve 330 of the cleaning mechanism 1000, exposing the second opening 322 of the scraper trough 320 so that the dirt in the scraper trough 320 can be discharged through the second opening 322.
[0085] In the embodiments of this application, when the cleaning mechanism 1000 is still in the cleaning task and the scraper trough 320 needs to be self-cleaned, the timing of the cleaning mechanism 1000 returning to the base station 2000 is controlled by the control component 2200, so that the cleaning mechanism 1000 returns to the base station 2000 in a timely manner and performs self-cleaning of the scraper trough 320, thereby improving the automation and intelligence of the cleaning mechanism 1000 and enhancing the user experience.
[0086] The following is a detailed description of the operation process of the cleaning mechanism 1000 cleaning the surface of the part to be cleaned and the self-cleaning process of the cleaning mechanism 1000 after the cleaning task is completed.
[0087] With the second opening 322 of the scraping groove 320 closed, the liquid replenishment component 200 sprays cleaning fluid onto the mopping body 110 through the liquid replenishment port 201. The mopping body 110 rotates away from the scraping groove 320 in the direction away from the liquid replenishment port 201, and the scraping blade 310 presses against the mopping body 110, causing dirt on the surface of the mopping body 110 to enter the scraping groove 320 and then be transported to the wastewater tank through the wastewater pipe until the cleaning task of the cleaning mechanism 1000 is completed. Then, the control component 2200 controls the cleaning mechanism 1000 to return to the preset position of the base station 2000. The ejector mechanism 2100 is controlled to open the drain valve 330 of the cleaning mechanism 1000, exposing the second opening 322 of the scraper trough 320, so that the dirt in the scraper trough 320 is discharged into the cleaning tank of the base station 2000 through the second opening 322. After the scraper trough 320 has completed self-cleaning, the liquid replenishment component 200 stops spraying cleaning liquid into the mopping body 110 through the liquid replenishment port 201, and the base station 2000 sequentially delivers hot air to the scraper trough 320 through the fan pipe and the second opening 322 to heat dry the scraper trough 320 after self-cleaning.
[0088] In some cases, the control component 2200 receives a signal that the water level in the scraper trough 320 has reached or exceeded the preset water level. In this case, the control component 2200 controls the cleaning mechanism 1000 to return to the preset position of the base station 2000 and controls the ejection mechanism 2100 to open the drain valve 330 of the cleaning mechanism 1000, exposing the second opening 322 of the scraper trough 320 so that the dirt in the scraper trough 320 can be discharged in a timely manner through the second opening 322.
