A floor cleaning robot workstation

Abstract

This application provides a floor cleaning robot workstation, which includes a housing, multiple legs, a support frame, and casters. Each leg has a first screw portion screwed to its bottom. A first nut is connected to the first screw portion. The support frame is horizontally inserted into the first screw portion, such that the first nut and the lower side wall of the bottom clamp the support frame. The casters are detachably connected to the support frame. The casters are used for omnidirectional rotation relative to the ground and for movement relative to the ground. When the casters are in contact with the ground and the legs are off the ground, the housing moves relative to the ground and adjusts its direction of movement under the drive of the casters. This facilitates positional adjustment of the housing relative to the ground, enabling the floor cleaning robot workstation to be moved and transported, avoiding the need for multiple people to carry it. A single person can complete the movement operation of the floor cleaning robot workstation, saving labor costs and time.
