For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the embodiments of this application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0066] An embodiment of the first aspect of this application provides a cleaning system. Please refer to... Figure 1 The cleaning system 100 includes a cleaning base station 10 and a cleaning device 20. For example, the cleaning device 20 is a cleaning robot, such as a robotic vacuum cleaner.

[0067] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 The clean base station 10 includes a base station body 11 and a drying component 12 disposed within the base station body 11. A first hot air outlet 111 is disposed on the base station body 11, and the first hot air outlet 111 is connected to the drying component 12.

[0068] The drying component 12 can draw in outside air and form hot air, which can flow out from the first hot air outlet 111.

[0069] For example, the drying assembly 12 includes a drying fan 121, a drying channel 123, and a heating element 122. A first end of the drying channel 123 is connected to the drying fan 121, and a second end of the drying channel 123 is connected to a first hot air outlet 111. The heating element 122 is disposed within the drying channel 123. In this way, outside air is first drawn into the drying channel 123 by the drying fan 121, and then heated by the heating element 122 to form hot air. This prevents the drying fan 121 from being affected by the hot air, thus extending its service life.

[0070] The drying fan 121 can draw outside air into the drying channel 123, while the heating element 122 can heat the air in the drying channel 123 to form hot air.

[0071] It is understandable that the heating element 122 can be a heating wire, heating tube, heating plate, or heating element, etc.

[0072] For example, the base station body 11 forms a receiving cavity 13, and a first hot air outlet 111 is located on the cavity wall of the receiving cavity 13. The receiving cavity 13 is used to accommodate the cleaning equipment 20. For example, during operation, when the cleaning equipment 20 has insufficient power or water, or when a certain amount of garbage is collected in the dust box 23, the cleaning equipment 20 can be moved into the receiving cavity 13, and the cleaning base station 10 can charge the cleaning equipment 20, replenish water, or clean the dust box 23.

[0073] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 The cleaning equipment 20 includes a main body 21 and a dust box 23 located inside the main body 21. The main body 21 is provided with a hot air inlet 211, which is connected to the dust box 23.

[0074] For example, the hot air inlet 211 is located on the outer peripheral wall of the equipment body 21.

[0075] When the cleaning equipment 20 is parked at the cleaning base station 10, for example, when the cleaning equipment 20 is inside the receiving cavity 13 of the cleaning base station 10, the first hot air outlet 111 and the hot air inlet 211 are connected so that the hot air generated by the drying component 12 can enter the dust box 23 through the first hot air outlet 111 and the hot air inlet 211 and be discharged from the roller brush 24 to dry the dust box 23 and prevent the formation of a humid environment inside the dust box 23.

[0076] The beneficial effects of the cleaning system 100 provided in this application embodiment are as follows: By setting a drying component 12 and a first hot air outlet 111 on the base station body 11 and connecting the drying component 12 and the first hot air outlet 111, when the cleaning equipment 20 is docked at the cleaning base station 10, the first hot air outlet 111 of the cleaning base station 10 is connected to the hot air inlet 211 of the cleaning equipment 20, so that the hot air generated by the drying component 12 can enter the dust box 23 through the first hot air outlet 111 and the hot air inlet 211, thereby achieving the drying of the dust box 23. By drying the dust box 23 of the cleaning equipment 20 through the drying component 12 of the cleaning base station 10, a humid environment is avoided in the dust box 23, solving the problem that bacteria easily grow and odors are produced in the dust box 23.

[0077] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6In some embodiments, the main body 21 of the device is also provided with a dust extraction fan 22, and the hot air inlet 211 is connected to the dust box 23 through the dust extraction fan 22.

[0078] The function of the vacuum cleaner 22 is to suck the garbage on the ground into the dust box 23, which is used to store the garbage.

[0079] Understandably, the hot air inlet 211 serves as the air outlet 213 of the vacuum cleaner 22. During cleaning operations, the vacuum cleaner 22 creates negative pressure within the dust box 23, drawing dust and other debris from the floor into the dust box 23 through the roller brush 24 under this negative pressure. Figure 3 As shown, a filter 231 is usually installed inside the dust box 23, so the garbage will be stored inside the dust box 23, and the air will be discharged from the air outlet 213 after passing through the vacuum fan 22. When the dust box 23 needs to be dried, the cleaning equipment 20 stops at the cleaning base station 10, the vacuum fan 22 does not work, and the first hot air outlet 111 and the hot air inlet 211 are connected so that the hot air generated by the drying component 12 can enter the dust box 23 through the first hot air outlet 111, the hot air inlet 211 and the vacuum fan 22, and be discharged from the roller brush 24 to dry the dust box 23 and prevent the formation of a humid environment inside the dust box 23.

[0080] Based on the above technical solution, hot air enters the dust box 23 through the air duct of the vacuum fan 22. There is no need to design an additional channel for hot air to enter the dust box 23 on the cleaning equipment 20. That is, only the cleaning base station 10 needs to be improved, and there is no need to improve the cleaning equipment 20, which can reduce costs.

[0081] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the base station body 11 is also provided with a dust collection port 112, and the device body 21 is also provided with a dust discharge port 212 connected to the dust box 23; the dust collection port 112 can be connected to the dust discharge port 212 to extract the garbage in the dust box 23.

[0082] For example, the dust discharge port 212 is located on the outer peripheral wall of the equipment body 21, and the dust collection port 112 is located on the cavity wall of the receiving cavity 13.

[0083] For example, the main body 21 of the equipment is also provided with a dust discharge channel 27, and the dust discharge port 212 is connected to the dust box 23 through the dust discharge channel 27.

[0084] Understandably, the base station body 11 is also equipped with a dust collection chamber and a dust collection fan. When the cleaning equipment 20 stops at the cleaning base station 10, the dust discharge port 212 connects with the dust collection port 112, and the dust collection fan sucks the garbage in the dust box 23 into the dust collection chamber for storage.

[0085] Based on the above technical solution, there is no need to manually clean the dust box 23, which can improve the user experience.

[0086] Please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the main body 21 of the device is also provided with a hot air channel 25, and the hot air inlet 211 is connected to the dust box 23 through the hot air channel 25.

[0087] When the cleaning equipment 20 is docked at the cleaning base station 10, the hot air inlet 211 is connected to the first hot air outlet 111. The hot air generated by the drying component 12 enters the dust box 23 through the first hot air outlet 111, the hot air inlet 211 and the hot air channel 25 to dry the dust box 23 and prevent the formation of a humid environment inside the dust box 23.

[0088] It should be noted that the hot air duct 25 is a duct that is independent of the dust exhaust duct 27 and the dust suction duct.

[0089] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the clean base station 10 further includes a flexible connector 14, which is located at the first hot air outlet 111.

[0090] For example, the flexible joint 14 can be a rubber joint, a silicone joint, a plastic joint, etc.

[0091] The shape of the flexible joint 14 is not limited in this application. For example, the shape of the flexible joint 14 can be a circular ring, an elliptical ring, a rectangular ring, etc.

[0092] Based on the above technical solution, since the flexible joint 14 is relatively soft, it can be compressed when the first hot air outlet 111 is connected to the hot air inlet 211. Therefore, it can ensure the sealing when the first hot air outlet 111 is connected to the hot air inlet 211, reduce or avoid hot air leakage, and improve drying efficiency.

[0093] In some embodiments, the flexible joint 14 may also be located at the hot air inlet 211.

[0094] Please refer to Figure 8 In some embodiments, when the hot air inlet 211 is connected to the dust box 23 through the hot air channel 25, the main body 21 of the device also includes a valve 26 for controlling the hot air entering the dust box 23; wherein the valve 26 is located on the dust box 23.

[0095] Optionally, valve 26 has a plate-type structure. Valve 26 is rotatably mounted on dust box 23 via a rotating shaft, and a torsion spring is provided on the rotating shaft. Under the elastic force of the torsion spring, valve 26 is in a closed state. However, under the force of hot air, valve 26 can overcome the elastic force of the torsion spring and open, allowing hot air to enter dust box 23.

[0096] The dust collection fan has a stronger suction, which allows valve 26 to open against the spring force of the torsion spring, facilitating the suction of debris from valve 26 into the dust collection chamber. However, the suction of the vacuum cleaner fan 22 is relatively weak, and it cannot open valve 26 against the spring force of the torsion spring. In other words, when the vacuum cleaner fan 22 sucks debris from the ground into the dust box 23, valve 26 remains closed to prevent the vacuum cleaner fan 22 from creating negative pressure in the dust box 23, thus avoiding affecting the cleaning of debris on the ground.

[0097] Of course, the torsion spring may not be installed on the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is driven by a drive device (such as a motor) to rotate, so as to open and close the valve 26.

[0098] In other embodiments, valve 26 may be located within hot air passage 25; or, valve 26 may be located at hot air inlet 211.

[0099] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, the cleaning device 20 further includes a mopping component 28 disposed on the device body 21, and the base station body 11 is provided with a cleaning area 131 for cleaning the mopping component 28. The base station body 11 is also provided with a second hot air outlet 113 connected to the drying component 12, and the hot air discharged from the second hot air outlet 113 can be transmitted to the cleaning area 131.

[0100] For example, the mop 28 is a rag.

[0101] For example, the cleaning area 131 is located within the receiving cavity 13.

[0102] Based on the above technical solution, after the mop 28 is cleaned in the cleaning zone 131, the hot air generated by the drying component 12 can be transmitted to the cleaning zone 131 through the second hot air outlet 113 to dry the mop 28 and prevent the mop 28 from producing odors due to the growth of bacteria caused by moisture.

[0103] In some embodiments, multiple second hot air outlets 113 and wiping members 28 are provided, with each wiping member 28 arranged corresponding to at least one second hot air outlet 113.

[0104] It is understood that the number of second hot air outlets 113 and mopping components 28 can be the same, for example, the number of second hot air outlets 113 and mopping components 28 can both be two, three, or four or more. Alternatively, the number of second hot air outlets 113 and mopping components 28 can be different, for example, the number of mopping components 28 can be two, and the number of second hot air outlets 113 can be three, four, or five, etc.; or, the number of mopping components 28 can be three, and the number of second hot air outlets 113 can be four, five, or six, etc.

[0105] For example, there are two second hot air outlets 113 and two mopping members 28, with one second hot air outlet 113 arranged corresponding to one mopping member 28 and the other second hot air outlet 113 arranged corresponding to the other mopping member 28.

[0106] Based on the above technical solution, each mopping component 28 is arranged corresponding to at least one second hot air outlet 113 to improve the drying efficiency of each mopping component 28.

[0107] In other embodiments, a single second hot air outlet 113 may be provided, meaning that multiple mopping components 28 may share a single second hot air outlet 113.

[0108] Please refer to Figure 9 In some embodiments, the drying channel 123 includes a main channel 1231, a first branch channel 1232 and a second branch channel 1233. Both the first branch channel 1232 and the second branch channel 1233 are connected to the main channel 1231. The first hot air outlet 111 is located at the end of the first branch channel 1232 away from the main channel 1231, and the second hot air outlet 113 is located at the end of the second branch channel 1233 away from the main channel 1231.

[0109] For example, there are two mopping components 28, and correspondingly, there are two second branch channels 1233, that is, there are two second hot air outlets 113, and the two second hot air outlets 113 are respectively arranged corresponding to the two mopping components 28.

[0110] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The second aspect of this application proposes a cleaning device 20 that can be used in conjunction with a cleaning base station 10. The cleaning base station 10 includes a drying component 12 and a first hot air outlet 111 connected to the drying component 12. The cleaning device 20 includes a device body 21 and a dust collector 22 and a dust box 23 disposed within the device body 21. The dust collector 22 is connected to the dust box 23 and can create a negative pressure inside the dust box 23. The device body 21 is provided with a hot air inlet 211 connected to the dust collector 22. The hot air inlet 211 is used to connect with the first hot air outlet 111.

[0111] The vacuum cleaner fan 22 is connected to the dust box 23, and the hot air inlet 211 is also connected to the vacuum cleaner fan 22. That is, the hot air inlet 211 is connected to the dust box 23 through the vacuum cleaner fan 22. For example, the hot air inlet 211 is located on the outer peripheral wall of the main body 21 of the device.

[0112] The function of the vacuum cleaner 22 is to suck the garbage on the ground into the dust box 23, which is used to store the garbage.

[0113] Understandably, the hot air inlet 211 serves as the air outlet 213 of the vacuum cleaner 22. When the cleaning equipment 20 is operating, the vacuum cleaner 22 creates a negative pressure inside the dust box 23, drawing dust and other debris from the ground into the dust box 23 under this negative pressure. Figure 3 As shown, a filter 231 is usually installed inside the dust box 23, so the garbage will be stored inside the dust box 23. The air is discharged from the air outlet 213 after passing through the vacuum fan 22. When the dust box 23 needs to be dried, the cleaning equipment 20 stops at the cleaning base station 10, the vacuum fan 22 does not work, the first hot air outlet 111 and the hot air inlet 211 are connected, and the hot air generated by the drying component 12 enters the dust box 23 through the first hot air outlet 111, the hot air inlet 211 and the vacuum fan 22, and is discharged from the roller brush 24 to dry the dust box 23 and prevent the formation of a humid environment inside the dust box 23.

[0114] Based on the above technical solution, hot air enters the dust box 23 through the air duct of the vacuum fan 22. There is no need to design an additional channel for hot air to enter the dust box 23 on the cleaning equipment 20. That is, only the cleaning base station 10 needs to be improved, and there is no need to improve the cleaning equipment 20, which can reduce costs.

[0115] In some embodiments, the main body 21 of the device is further provided with a dust discharge port 212 communicating with the dust box 23, and the dust discharge port 212 is used to connect with the dust collection port 112 of the cleaning base station 10.

[0116] For example, the dust discharge port 212 is located on the outer peripheral wall of the equipment body 21.

[0117] For example, the main body 21 of the equipment is also provided with a dust discharge channel 27, and the dust discharge port 212 is connected to the dust box 23 through the dust discharge channel 27.

[0118] Understandably, the base station body 11 is equipped with a dust collection chamber and a dust collection fan. When the cleaning equipment 20 stops at the cleaning base station 10, the dust discharge port 212 connects with the dust collection port 112, and the dust collection fan sucks the garbage in the dust box 23 into the dust collection chamber for storage.

[0119] Based on the above technical solution, there is no need to manually clean the dust box 23, which can improve the user experience.

[0120] Please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The third aspect of this application proposes a cleaning device 20 that can be used in conjunction with a cleaning base station 10. The cleaning base station 10 includes a dust collection port 112, a drying component 12, and a first hot air outlet 111 connected to the drying component 12. The cleaning device 20 includes a device body 21 and a dust collection fan 22 and a dust box 23 disposed within the device body 21. The dust collection fan 22 is connected to the dust box 23 and can create a negative pressure inside the dust box 23. The device body 21 has an air outlet 213 connected to the dust collection fan 22.

[0121] For example, the air outlet 213 is located on the outer peripheral wall of the device body 21.

[0122] The function of the vacuum cleaner 22 is to suck the garbage on the ground into the dust box 23, which is used to store the garbage.

[0123] When the cleaning equipment 20 is working, the vacuum fan 22 creates a negative pressure inside the dust box 23, and dust and other debris on the ground are sucked into the dust box 23 under the action of negative pressure; for example Figure 3 As shown, the dust box 23 is usually equipped with a filter 231, so the garbage will be stored in the dust box 23, and the air will be discharged from the air outlet 213 after passing through the vacuum fan 22.

[0124] The main body 21 of the equipment also has a dust discharge port 212 and a hot air inlet 211 connected to the dust box 23. The main body 21 of the equipment is also provided with a hot air channel 25. The hot air inlet 211 is connected to the dust box 23 through the hot air channel 25. The dust discharge port 212 is used to connect with the dust collection port 112, and the hot air inlet 211 is used to connect with the first hot air outlet 111.

[0125] For example, the dust outlet 212 and the hot air inlet 211 are located on the outer peripheral wall of the equipment body 21.

[0126] For example, the main body 21 of the equipment is also provided with a dust discharge channel 27, and the dust discharge port 212 is connected to the dust box 23 through the dust discharge channel 27.

[0127] The base station body 11 is also equipped with a dust collection chamber and a dust collection fan. After the dust discharge port 212 is connected to the dust collection port 112, the dust collection fan sucks the garbage in the dust box 23 into the dust collection chamber for storage.

[0128] When the cleaning equipment 20 is docked at the cleaning base station 10, the hot air inlet 211 is connected to the first hot air outlet 111. The hot air generated by the drying component 12 can enter the dust box 23 through the first hot air outlet 111, the hot air inlet 211 and the hot air channel 25 to dry the dust box 23 and prevent the formation of a humid environment inside the dust box 23.

[0129] It should be noted that the hot air duct 25 is a duct that is independent of the dust exhaust duct 27 and the dust suction duct.

[0130] In some embodiments, the device body 21 further includes a valve 26 for controlling hot air entering the dust box 23; wherein the valve 26 is disposed on the dust box 23.

[0131] Optionally, valve 26 has a plate-type structure. Valve 26 is rotatably mounted on dust box 23 via a rotating shaft, and a torsion spring is provided on the rotating shaft. Under the elastic force of the torsion spring, valve 26 is in a closed state. However, under the force of hot air, valve 26 can overcome the elastic force of the torsion spring and open, allowing hot air to enter dust box 23.

[0132] The dust collection fan has a stronger suction, which allows valve 26 to open against the spring force of the torsion spring, facilitating the suction of debris from valve 26 into the dust collection chamber. However, the suction of the vacuum cleaner fan 22 is relatively weak, and it cannot open valve 26 against the spring force of the torsion spring. In other words, when the vacuum cleaner fan 22 sucks debris from the ground into the dust box 23, valve 26 remains closed to prevent the vacuum cleaner fan 22 from creating negative pressure in the dust box 23, thus avoiding affecting the cleaning of debris on the ground.

[0133] Of course, the torsion spring may not be installed on the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is driven by a drive device (such as a motor) to rotate, so as to open and close the valve 26.

[0134] In other embodiments, valve 26 may be located within hot air passage 25; or, valve 26 may be located at hot air inlet 211.

[0135] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, and should all be included within the protection scope of this application.
