[0006] In some embodiments, the cleaning equipment further includes a first valve body disposed within a first pipe, which is used to open at least when the diverter is in a first state, so as to connect the clean water tank and the wastewater tank.
[0007] In some embodiments, the cleaning equipment further includes a first pump body disposed in a clean water tank or a first pipe, for at least driving fluid in the clean water tank to flow into a wastewater tank via the first pipe and the second pipe.
[0008] In some embodiments, the first pump body is located on the side of the first valve body away from the diverter, and the first pump body is also used to drive the fluid in the clean water tank into the first pipe to trigger the first valve body to open.
[0009] In some embodiments, the main body is further provided with a filter tank that communicates between the cleaning component and the third pipe.
[0010] In some embodiments, the cleaning equipment further includes a second valve body disposed within a third conduit, for opening at least when the diverter is in a second state, so as to connect the filter tank to the wastewater tank.

[0012] In some embodiments, the diverter includes a three-way valve.
[0013] In some embodiments, the first valve body includes a one-way valve.
[0014] Secondly, this application also provides a cleaning system, which includes: the aforementioned cleaning equipment; and a base station.
[0015] The advantages of the embodiments of this application, which differ from the prior art, are as follows: This application provides a cleaning device and a cleaning system. The cleaning device includes a main body, a first pipeline assembly, and a diverter. The main body is provided with a cleaning component, a clean water tank, and a wastewater tank. The wastewater tank is used to collect the fluid generated when the cleaning component is working. The first pipeline assembly includes a first pipe, a second pipe, and a third pipe that are connected to each other. The first pipe is also connected to the clean water tank, the second pipe is also connected to the wastewater tank, and the third pipe is also connected to the cleaning component. The diverter is provided at the junction of the first pipe, the second pipe, and the third pipe. The diverter is used to switch the second pipe between a first state connected to the first pipe and a second state connected to the third pipe. By configuring the first pipeline assembly to include interconnected first, second, and third pipelines, with the first pipeline also connected to a clean water tank, the second pipeline also connected to a wastewater tank, and the third pipeline also connected to a cleaning component, and placing a diverter at the junction of the first, second, and third pipelines, the diverter is used to connect the second pipeline to the first pipeline in a first state and to connect the second pipeline to the third pipeline in a second state. This allows the cleaning equipment to share the second pipeline for drainage in both self-cleaning and fluid recovery modes, simplifying the pipeline structure and shortening the total pipeline length, thereby reducing pipeline installation costs and ultimately lowering the overall cost of the cleaning equipment. On the one hand, during the self-cleaning of the wastewater tank, the fluid flowing out of the clean water tank can flush at least part of the connection between the first, second and third pipes and the second pipe, and remove impurities left over from the fluid recovery process. This reduces or avoids the risk of blockage of the first pipeline assembly due to the accumulation of impurities at the connection between the first, second and third pipes and inside the second pipe, thereby improving the reliability of the cleaning equipment. On the other hand, the design of the first pipeline assembly makes the internal pipeline layout of the cleaning equipment more compact, which not only saves the internal space of the main body of the cleaning equipment, but also reduces the weight of the main body, which is conducive to the miniaturization and lightweight development of the cleaning equipment.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the cleaning system provided in this application. This application provides a cleaning device 100. The cleaning device 100 includes a main body 110, a first pipeline assembly 141, and a diverter 150. The main body 110 is equipped with a cleaning component 120, a clean water tank 131, and a wastewater tank 132. The wastewater tank 132 is used to collect fluid generated during the operation of the cleaning component 120. The first pipeline assembly 141 includes a first pipe 1411, a second pipe 1412, and a third pipe 1413 connected to each other. The first pipe 1411 is also connected to the clean water tank 131, the second pipe 1412 is also connected to the wastewater tank 132, and the third pipe 1413 is also connected to the cleaning component 120. The diverter 150 is disposed at the junction of the first pipe 1411, the second pipe 1412, and the third pipe 1413. The diverter 150 is used to switch the second pipe 1412 between a first state connected to the first pipe 1411 and a second state connected to the third pipe 1413.
[0025] The cleaning equipment 100 can be a floor scrubber, a mop, or a sweeper-mop combo, but is not limited to these. The main body 110 can be the body of the cleaning equipment 100. The cleaning components 120, clean water tank 131, and wastewater tank 132 can all be detachably mounted on the body; alternatively, the cleaning components 120, clean water tank 131, and wastewater tank 132 can also be mounted on the body using detachable methods such as snap-fit connections, bolt connections, pin connections, or welding, or using methods that are not easily detachable such as welding; alternatively, the cleaning components 120, clean water tank 131, and wastewater tank 132 can also be integrally formed into the body. Among them, the cleaning components 120 can be a mop, mopping roller, mopping disc, roller brush, etc., but are not limited to these.
[0026] The clean water tank 131 is used to hold clean fluid, which can be tap water with added cleaning solution, disinfectant, and / or bactericide. The clean water tank 131 can be supplied with water by the base station 200 when the cleaning equipment 100 is connected to the base station 200; alternatively, the clean water tank 131 can be directly supplied with water from a tap, a separate water storage device, etc. The clean water tank 131 is used not only to provide a continuous fluid to the cleaning component 120 when the cleaning equipment 100 is operating, but also to provide fluid to the wastewater tank 132 to achieve self-cleaning of the wastewater tank 132.
[0027] The first piping assembly 141 can be a one-piece structure, meaning that the first pipe 1411, the second pipe 1412, and the third pipe 1413 are integrally formed by casting, injection molding, or 3D printing. Of course, the first piping assembly 141 can also be a split structure, meaning that the first pipe 1411, the second pipe 1412, and the third pipe 1413 can be connected together by a tee connector.
[0028] One end of the first pipe 1411, one end of the second pipe 1412, and one end of the third pipe 1413 are interconnected. The other end of the first pipe 1411 is connected to the clean water tank 131, the other end of the second pipe 1412 is connected to the wastewater tank 132, and the other end of the third pipe 1413 is connected to the cleaning assembly 120. A diverter 150 is disposed within the first pipe assembly 141 and located at the junction of the first pipe 1411, the second pipe 1412, and the third pipe 1413. The diverter 150 is configured to have a first state and a second state, and the diverter 150 can switch between the first state and the second state according to the working mode of the cleaning equipment 100.
[0029] The cleaning equipment 100 is configured to include at least a self-cleaning mode, a main cleaning mode, and a fluid recovery mode. The self-cleaning mode involves introducing fluid from the clean water tank 131 into the wastewater tank 132 to clean the wastewater tank 132. The main cleaning mode involves introducing fluid from the clean water tank 131 into the cleaning component 120 to clean the surface to be cleaned. The fluid recovery mode involves introducing the fluid generated during the operation of the cleaning component 120 into the wastewater tank 132 to recover the fluid generated during the operation of the cleaning component 120. The main cleaning mode and the fluid recovery mode can be performed simultaneously, or they can be performed separately.
[0030] When the cleaning device 100 operates in self-cleaning mode, the diverter 150 is in its first state. In this first state, the diverter 150 blocks the end of the third pipe 1413 away from the cleaning component 120, allowing the second pipe 1412 to connect with the first pipe 1411, while isolating the third pipe 1413 from both the first and second pipes 1411 and 1412. Fluid in the clean water tank 131 can then flow sequentially through the first and second pipes 1411 and 1412 into the wastewater tank 132, thereby achieving self-cleaning of the wastewater tank 132. When the cleaning device 100 operates in main cleaning mode, the diverter 150 is in its second state. When the diverter 150 is in the second state, the diverter 150 can block the end of the first pipe 1411 away from the clean water tank 131, so that the second pipe 1412 and the third pipe 1413 are connected, and the first pipe 1411 is isolated from the second pipe 1412 and the third pipe 1413. The fluid generated during the operation of the cleaning component 120 can flow into the sewage tank 132 in sequence through the third pipe 1413 and the second pipe 1412, thereby realizing the recovery of fluid.
[0031] In this embodiment, the first pipeline assembly 141 is configured to include a first pipeline 1411, a second pipeline 1412, and a third pipeline 1413 that are interconnected. The first pipeline 1411 is also connected to a clean water tank 131, the second pipeline 1412 is also connected to a wastewater tank 132, and the third pipeline 1413 is also connected to a cleaning assembly 120. A diverter 150 is disposed at the junction of the first pipeline 1411, the second pipeline 1412, and the third pipeline 1413. The diverter 150 is used to connect the second pipeline 1412 to the first pipeline 1411 in a first state and to connect the second pipeline 1412 to the third pipeline 1413 in a second state. On the one hand, this allows the cleaning equipment 100 to share the second pipeline 1412 for drainage in both self-cleaning mode and fluid recovery mode, thereby simplifying the pipeline structure and shortening the total length of the pipeline, thus reducing the pipeline laying cost and consequently reducing the cleaning cost. On the one hand, the overall cost of the cleaning equipment 100 is reduced; on the other hand, when the wastewater tank 132 is self-cleaned, the fluid flowing out of the clean water tank 131 can flush at least part of the connection between the first pipe 1411, the second pipe 1412 and the third pipe 1413 and the second pipe 1412, and remove impurities left over from the fluid recovery process. This can reduce or avoid the risk of blockage of the first pipeline assembly 141 due to the accumulation of impurities at the connection between the first pipe 1411, the second pipe 1412 and the third pipe 1413 and in the second pipe 1412, thereby improving the reliability of the cleaning equipment 100. Furthermore, the design of the first pipeline assembly 141 makes the internal pipeline layout of the cleaning equipment 100 more compact, which not only saves the internal space of the main body 110 of the cleaning equipment 100, but also reduces the weight of the main body 110, which is conducive to the miniaturization and lightweight development of the cleaning equipment 100.
[0032] In some embodiments, the end of the second pipe 1412 away from the first pipe 1411 can be connected to a jet assembly (not shown) so that the fluid ejected by the jet assembly can flush the sewage tank 132, thereby enhancing the impact force of the fluid on the inner wall of the sewage tank 132 and improving the self-cleaning effect of the sewage tank 132.
[0033] In some embodiments, the diverter 150 includes a three-way valve. The three-way valve can precisely switch the connection state of the first pipeline assembly 141, realizing the switching of the pipeline between the self-cleaning mode and the fluid recovery mode. This can reduce or avoid the risk of contamination of the fluid in the clean water tank 131 and contamination of the surface to be cleaned due to fluid leakage, enabling the cleaning equipment 100 to complete the cleaning task efficiently and hygienically.
[0034] In some embodiments, the cleaning device 100 further includes a first valve body 161 disposed in the first pipe 1411, which is at least used to open when the diverter 150 is in a first state, so as to connect the clean water tank 131 with the wastewater tank 132.
[0035] When the first valve body 161 is in the open state, it allows fluid on the side closest to the clean water tank 131 to flow toward the wastewater tank 132, and sequentially flows into the wastewater tank 132 through the first pipe 1411 and the second pipe 1412. It also prevents fluid on the side furthest from the clean water tank 131 from flowing toward and into the clean water tank 131. When the first valve body 161 is in the closed state, it prevents fluid on the side closest to the clean water tank 131 from passing through, and also prevents fluid on the side furthest from the clean water tank 131 from passing through.
[0036] The first valve body 161 can be opened when the working mode of the cleaning equipment 100 is the self-cleaning mode. At this time, the diverter 150 is in the first state that connects the second pipe 1412 with the first pipe 1411, so that the fluid in the clean water tank 131 can flow sequentially through the first pipe 1411 and the second pipe 1412 to the sewage tank 132 to clean the sewage tank 132. When the self-cleaning mode ends and the clean water tank 131 stops supplying water to the wastewater tank 132, the fluid located on the side of the first valve body 161 away from the clean water tank 131 or in the wastewater tank 132 may flow back due to liquid level difference or pressure difference. At this time, the first valve body 161 can prevent the fluid from flowing back, which can reduce or avoid the contamination of the fluid in the clean water tank 131 by dirty fluid or impurities in the wastewater tank 132. This ensures the cleaning effect and safety of the fluid supplied by the clean water tank 131 to the cleaning component 120 and the wastewater tank 132, helps to improve the cleaning effect of the cleaning equipment 100 and the self-cleaning effect of the wastewater tank 132, and thus improves the user experience.
[0037] In some embodiments, when the location of the clean water tank 131 is lower than that of the sewage tank 132, the first valve body 161 can prevent the siphon effect from causing the fluid in the sewage tank 132 to flow back to the first pipe 1411 or the clean water tank 131 by forcing unidirectional flow, thereby avoiding the siphon effect and the contamination of the fluid in the clean water tank 131.
[0038] The first valve body 161 can also be closed when the cleaning equipment 100 is in the fluid recovery mode. In this mode, the diverter 150 is in a second state that connects the second pipe 1412 and the third pipe 1413. The first valve body 161 and the diverter 150 together form two lines of defense to prevent the recovered fluid from flowing into the clean water tank 131. For example, if the recovered fluid flows into the first pipe 1411 from the second pipe 1412 or the third pipe 1413 due to factors such as the diverter 150 failing to return to the second state or damage to the diverter 150, the first valve body 161 can be used to prevent the recovered fluid from flowing into the clean water tank 131, thereby avoiding contamination of the fluid in the clean water tank 131.
[0039] In some embodiments, the first valve body 161 includes a check valve. The check valve not only prevents fluid backflow in self-cleaning mode, but also, together with the diverter 150, forms two lines of defense to prevent the recovered fluid from flowing into the clean water tank 131 in fluid recovery mode, thereby reducing or avoiding the risk of contamination of the fluid in the clean water tank 131.
[0040] In some embodiments, the cleaning device 100 further includes a first pump body (not shown). The first pump body is disposed in a clean water tank 131 or a first pipe 1411, and is used to drive fluid in the clean water tank 131 into the wastewater tank 132 via the first pipe 1411 and the second pipe 1412.
[0041] The first pump body is used to control the pressure and flow of fluid flowing from the clean water tank 131 into the wastewater tank 132. In the self-cleaning mode of the cleaning device 100, when the diverter 150 is in the first state and the first valve 161 is open, the first pump body opens to drive the flow in the clean water tank 131 into the wastewater tank 132 sequentially through the first pipe 1411 and the second pipe 1412, thereby cleaning the wastewater tank 132. Furthermore, the first pump body can also control the pressure of the fluid flowing from the clean water tank 131 into the wastewater tank 132, thereby controlling the flushing force of the fluid on the wastewater tank 132. This allows for controllable flushing force, improving the flexibility and cleaning effect of the self-cleaning process for the wastewater tank 132.
[0042] In some embodiments, the first pump body is located on the side of the first valve body 161 away from the diverter 150. The first pump body is also used to drive the fluid in the clean water tank 131 into the first pipe 1411 to trigger the first valve body 161 to open.
[0043] The first pump body can be located inside the clean water tank 131, or inside the first pipe 1411 and located on the side of the first valve body 161 near the clean water tank 131. When the diverter 150 is in the first state, and the first pump body drives the fluid in the clean water tank 131 to flow into the first pipe 1411, if the fluid pressure is greater than or equal to the opening threshold of the one-way valve, the first valve body 161 can be triggered to open, so that the fluid can pass through the first valve body 161 and flow into the sewage tank 132.
[0044] Whether the first valve body 161 opens depends on whether the first pump body drives the liquid to flow into the first pipe 1411. On the one hand, this can prevent the first valve body 161 from being accidentally triggered and opening when the cleaning equipment 100 is in other working modes such as fluid recovery. This not only improves the control accuracy of the first valve body 161, but also reduces the risk of waste or contamination caused by fluid leakage in the clean water tank 131. On the other hand, the first valve body 161 opens under the trigger of the fluid, without the need for additional power supply to the first valve body 161, which can reduce the energy consumption of the cleaning equipment 100 and improve its endurance.
[0045] In some embodiments, when the cleaning device 100 is docked with the base station 200, the first pump body can also drive the fluid stored in the base station 200 to flow into the clean water tank 131 to replenish the clean water tank 131.
[0046] In some embodiments, a reset member (not shown) is provided within the first valve body 161. The reset member can be a spring. When the first pump body drives fluid in the clean water tank 131 to flow into the first pipe 1411, the reset member is compressed to open the first valve body 161. When the first pump body is closed, the reset member is reset under the action of elastic force and pushes the first valve body 161 to close, thereby sealing the first pipe 1411.
[0047] In some embodiments, the main body 110 is further provided with a filter tank 133. The filter tank 133 is connected between the cleaning component 120 and the third pipe 1413.
[0048] The third pipe 1413 is connected to the filter tank 133 at one end away from the junction of the first pipe 1411, the second pipe 1412 and the third pipe 1413, and the filter tank 133 is connected to the cleaning component 120.
[0049] By connecting the filter tank 133 between the cleaning component 120 and the third pipe 1413, the filter tank 133 can filter the fluid generated when the cleaning component 120 is working, so as to retain solid waste such as hair, debris, and grit in the fluid in the filter tank 133. On the one hand, it can avoid the risk of blockage of the third pipe 1413 and / or the second pipe 1412 due to solid waste entering the third pipe 1413 and / or the second pipe 1412 with the fluid, which can further improve the reliability of the cleaning equipment 100. On the other hand, it makes the fluid recovered by the sewage tank 132 cleaner, which can reduce the pollution of the sewage tank 132 by the recovered fluid. This not only reduces the self-cleaning pressure of the sewage tank 132, but also helps to reduce the frequency of self-cleaning of the sewage tank 132.
[0050] In some embodiments, the cleaning device 100 further includes a second pump (not shown). The second pump may be disposed within the filter tank 133; or, disposed on the pipeline between the filter tank 133 and the cleaning assembly 120, or disposed within the third pipeline 1413. The second pump is used to draw the fluid generated by the cleaning assembly 120 during operation into the filter tank 133, or to draw the fluid generated by the cleaning assembly 120 during operation into the filter tank 133 and allow the fluid to flow from the filter tank 133 into the wastewater tank 132 via the third pipeline 1413 and the second pipeline 1412.
[0051] In some embodiments, the main cleaning mode and the fluid recovery mode can be performed simultaneously. In this case, the second pump body can be located in the filter tank 133, on the pipeline between the filter tank 133 and the cleaning component 120, or in the third pipeline 1413. The fluid generated when the cleaning component 120 is working can flow into the sewage tank 132 in sequence through the filter tank 133, the third pipeline 1413 and the second pipeline 1412.
[0052] In some embodiments, the filter tank 133 can serve as a buffer chamber to buffer the fluid generated during the operation of the cleaning component 120, allowing the main cleaning mode and the fluid recovery mode to be performed separately. Specifically, in the main cleaning mode, the fluid generated during the operation of the cleaning component 120 can be pre-stored in the filter tank 133 to ensure sufficient filtration, thereby improving the cleanliness of the fluid flowing out of the filter tank 133. This not only further reduces the risk of blockage in the third pipe 1413 and the second pipe 1412, but also reduces the degree of dirt in the wastewater tank 132, which helps to reduce the self-cleaning pressure of the wastewater tank 132. After the fluid has settled in the filter tank 133 for a preset time, the fluid in the filter tank 133 is then guided into the wastewater tank 132 along the third pipe 1413 and the second pipe 1412.
[0053] In some embodiments, the filter tank 133 can be detachably mounted on the main body 110 via components such as a sliding groove assembly, a snap-fit, or a magnetic attachment, making it convenient to remove and clean the filter tank 133 periodically.
[0054] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of another embodiment of the cleaning system provided in this application. The cleaning device 100 also includes a second valve body 162. The second valve body 162 is disposed in the third pipe 1413 and is used to open at least when the diverter 150 is in the second state, so that the filter tank 133 communicates with the sewage tank 132.
[0055] When the second valve body 162 is in the open state, it allows fluid on the side closest to the filter tank 133 to flow toward the wastewater tank 132 and sequentially into the wastewater tank 132 via the third pipe 1413 and the second pipe 1412. It also prevents fluid on the side furthest from the filter tank 133 from flowing toward and into the filter tank 133. When the second valve body 162 is in the closed state, it prevents fluid on the side closest to the filter tank 133 from passing through, and it also prevents fluid on the side furthest from the filter tank 133 from passing through.
[0056] The second valve body 162 can be opened when the cleaning equipment 100 is in the fluid recovery mode. At this time, the diverter 150 is in a second state that connects the third pipe 1413 and the second pipe 1412, so that the fluid generated when the cleaning component 120 is working can flow sequentially through the third pipe 1413 and the second pipe 1412 into the wastewater tank 132 to collect the fluid generated when the cleaning component 120 is working. When the fluid recovery mode ends and the clean water tank 131 stops supplying water to the wastewater tank 132, the fluid located on the side of the second valve body 162 away from the filter tank 133 or in the wastewater tank 132 may flow back due to liquid level difference or pressure difference. At this time, the second valve body 162 can prevent the fluid from flowing back, which can reduce the risk of contamination of the surface to be cleaned due to fluid flowing back to the surface to be cleaned.
[0057] In some embodiments, the cleaning device 100 further includes a second piping assembly 142. The second piping assembly 142 is connected between the clean water tank 131 and the cleaning assembly 120 for guiding fluid in the clean water tank 131 to the cleaning assembly 120.
[0058] The second pipeline assembly 142 can guide the fluid in the clean water tank 131 to the cleaning assembly 120, so that the cleaning assembly 120 can remain continuously moist in the main cleaning mode without the need for manual soaking of the cleaning assembly 120, thereby improving the automation level of the cleaning equipment 100.
[0059] In some embodiments, the cleaning device 100 further includes a third valve body (not shown), which is disposed on the second pipeline assembly 142. The third valve body is used to regulate the fluid flowing from the clean water tank 131 through the second pipeline assembly 142 to the cleaning assembly 120. It can not only prevent the cleaning assembly 120 or the surface to be cleaned from being too wet or too dry, but also dynamically adjust the flow rate of the fluid according to the degree of dirt on the surface to be cleaned. This allows for precise control of the flow rate of the fluid flowing to the cleaning assembly 120, enabling water to be drawn on demand and avoiding fluid waste or shortage.
[0060] In some embodiments, the cleaning device 100 further includes a third piping assembly 143. The third piping assembly 143 is connected between the cleaning assembly 120 and the filter tank 133 and is used to guide the fluid generated when the cleaning assembly 120 is in operation to the filter tank 133.
[0061] The third pipeline assembly 143 can guide the fluid generated by the cleaning assembly 120 during operation to the filter tank 133, so that the fluid generated by the cleaning assembly 120 during operation can be promptly drawn into the filter tank 133 and / or the wastewater tank 132 through the third pipeline assembly 143, thereby avoiding secondary pollution of the ground by the cleaning assembly 120 and improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning assembly 120.
[0062] In some embodiments, this application also includes a cleaning system 1000. The cleaning system 1000 includes a base station 200 and a cleaning device 100 from any of the above embodiments.
[0063] In some embodiments, when the cleaning device 100 is connected to the base station 200, the water supply tank of the base station 200 is connected to the clean water tank 131 of the cleaning device 100 through the fourth pipeline assembly 210, so that the base station 200 can provide fluid to the clean water tank 131 of the cleaning device 100 through the fourth pipeline assembly 210.
[0064] In some embodiments, when the cleaning device 100 is connected to the base station 200, the base station 200 can also charge the cleaning device 100 and clean the cleaning component 120.
[0065] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the cleaning device 100 is the same as that in the above embodiments. Since the cleaning system 1000 adopts all the technical solutions of all the embodiments of the cleaning device 100, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.
[0066] This application provides a cleaning device 100 and a cleaning system 1000. The cleaning device 100 includes: a main body 110, on which a cleaning component 120, a clean water tank 131, and a wastewater tank 132 are provided. The wastewater tank 132 is used to collect fluid generated when the cleaning component 120 is working; a first pipeline assembly 141, including a first pipe 1411, a second pipe 1412, and a third pipe 1413 connected to each other. The first pipe 1411 is also connected to the clean water tank 131, the second pipe 1412 is also connected to the wastewater tank 132, and the third pipe 1413 is also connected to the cleaning component 120; and a diverter 150, disposed at the junction of the first pipe 1411, the second pipe 1412, and the third pipe 1413, which is used to switch the second pipe 1412 between a first state connected to the first pipe 1411 and a second state connected to the third pipe 1413. This embodiment of the application sets up a first pipeline assembly 141 and a diversion component 150, so that the second pipeline 1412 can be shared in both the self-cleaning mode and the fluid recovery mode. This simplifies the pipeline structure and shortens the total length of the pipeline, thereby reducing the pipeline laying cost and the overall cost of the cleaning equipment 100.
