[0044] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this disclosure, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this disclosure, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0045] Existing vacuum cleaners with self-cleaning functions can only clean their roller brushes by rotating the brush in both directions. The self-cleaning effect is limited, and users usually need to manually clean the floor brush of the vacuum cleaner, which is time-consuming, laborious, and unhygienic.

[0046] To address the aforementioned issues, the applicant has developed a novel cleaning base station. This cleaning base station utilizes the negative pressure generated during the operation of the cleaning equipment or during dust collection to produce a cleaning airflow. This cleaning airflow enables the floor brush to self-clean, effectively improving the cleaning performance and solving the problem of dirt buildup on the floor brush.

[0047] Specifically, in order to generate a clean airflow using negative pressure, the cleaning base station of this application has a sealed cavity for accommodating the floor brush mechanism of the cleaning equipment, and air holes are arranged on the cavity wall of the sealed cavity. After the cleaning equipment is connected to the cleaning base station, when the cleaning equipment is running or when the cleaning base station cleans the cleaning equipment, negative pressure will be generated in the sealed cavity, thereby generating a clean airflow at the air holes that blows towards the floor brush mechanism, thus realizing the self-cleaning of the floor brush mechanism.

[0048] Furthermore, in order to thoroughly clean the floor brush mechanism and facilitate the removal of dust and other contaminants generated during self-cleaning from the sealed cavity, this application arranges air holes at different locations on the cavity wall. Specifically, some air holes can be arranged on the top cavity wall of the sealed cavity to thoroughly clean the upper surface of the floor brush mechanism; some air holes can be arranged opposite the transparent observation window of the floor brush mechanism to thoroughly clean the transparent observation window; and some air holes can be arranged opposite the dust suction port of the floor brush mechanism to blow the dust generated during self-cleaning towards the dust suction port and remove it from the sealed cavity, thus avoiding secondary pollution.

[0049] Furthermore, in order to effectively improve the intensity of the clean airflow, the clean air base station of this application is also equipped with an air control mechanism, which can control the opening and closing of each air hole. By controlling the opening of one or a small number of air holes at any given time, the intensity of the clean airflow can be significantly improved.

[0050] Furthermore, to improve the effect, the air control mechanism of the clean base station of this application includes multiple air control units corresponding one-to-one with the air vents. Each air control unit can independently control the opening and closing of each air vent, thereby maximizing the intensity of the clean airflow.

[0051] In order to achieve integrated installation of multiple air control units and simplify the structure of the cleaning base station, the cleaning base station of this application also has a cavity inside, and multiple air control units and pipelines connected to the air control are centrally installed inside the cavity for easy maintenance.

[0052] Furthermore, to facilitate maintenance of the sealed cavity, the cleaning base station of this application consists of two parts: a base and a cover. The cover forms a first cavity, and the base forms a second cavity. The first cavity and the second cavity are connected by the mating interface on the cover and the mating interface on the base. The air vent mechanism is arranged in the second cavity of the cleaning base station to facilitate the integrated installation and maintenance of the air control mechanism.

[0053] The technical solution of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0054] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of one embodiment of the clean base station of this application.

[0055] like Figure 1 As shown, the clean base station 1 includes a base 10, which is composed of a base body 101 and a cover 102. The cover 102 covers the base body 101 and together with the base body 101, forms a sealed cavity 103 located inside.

[0056] The structure of the cover 102 is described in detail below. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a structural schematic diagram of one embodiment of the cover body of this application.

[0057] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to achieve the connection of the cleaning device 2 and ensure the sealing of the inside of the sealing cavity 103 in the connected state, the cover 102 includes a main body 1021 and a sealing part 1022. The main body 1021 covers the base 101 and has an opening 10211 for the floor brush mechanism 20 to enter. The sealing part 1022 is arranged at the opening 10211 and is detachably connected to the main body 1021. The sealing part 1022 cooperates with the base 101 to seal the opening 10211.

[0058] The main body 1021 has a clearance hole 10212 on the side near the sealing part 1022 for avoiding the connecting rod of the cleaning equipment 2.

[0059] Understandably, when it is necessary to insert the floor brush mechanism 20 of the cleaning device 2 into the sealed cavity 103, the sealing part 1022 can be removed, the floor brush mechanism 20 of the cleaning device 2 can be pushed into the sealed cavity 103, and the connecting rod of the floor brush mechanism 20 can be inserted into the clearance hole 10212. Then, the sealing part 1022 can be re-fixed to the main body 1021 to complete the connection between the cleaning device 2 and the cleaning base station 1 and ensure the internal seal.

[0060] In one embodiment, the sealing part 1022 can be fixed to the main body part 1021 by magnetic attraction. In other embodiments, the sealing part 1022 can also be fixed to the main body part 1021 by any detachable connection method commonly used in the art, such as snap-fit ​​fixing, etc., all of which can achieve the effect of this embodiment.

[0061] It should be noted that this embodiment only shows an optional structure of the cleaning base station 1. In other embodiments, the cleaning base station 1 may not consist of two parts: the base 101 and the cover 102. For example, the cleaning base station 1 may be an integral structure with a slewable sealed door for the cleaning equipment 2 to enter, etc. Any cleaning base station 1 structure that has a sealed cavity 103 inside and can be connected to the cleaning equipment 2 can achieve the effect of this embodiment, and will not be described in detail here.

[0062] The porous structure of the base 10 is described in detail below. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a cross-sectional structural diagram of one embodiment of the clean base station of this application.

[0063] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the main body 1021 of the cover 102 includes a top plate 10213 and side plates 10218 arranged on both sides of the top plate 10213. The top plate 10213 is provided with a first air hole 10214 and a second air hole 10215 that communicate with the sealing cavity 103. The first air hole 10214 is located on the top cavity wall of the sealing cavity 103, and the second air hole 10215 is located on the side cavity wall of the sealing cavity 103 opposite to the opening 10211.

[0064] A third vent 1011 is arranged on the side wall of the seat 101 opposite to the opening 10211.

[0065] The functions of the first pore 10214, the second pore 10215, and the third pore 1011 are described in detail below. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of one embodiment of the connection between the cleaning base station and the ground brush mechanism in this application.

[0066] like Figure 4As shown, the first air hole 10214 located on the top cavity wall of the sealed cavity 103 can form a downward first cleaning airflow a under the negative pressure inside the sealed cavity 103, thereby self-cleaning the upper surface of the floor brush mechanism 20.

[0067] The floor brush mechanism 20 is provided with a transparent observation window 202 located at the top front end. When the floor brush mechanism 20 is pushed into the sealed cavity 103 through the opening 10211, the transparent observation window 202 is located above the side opposite to the opening 10211. Therefore, the second air hole 10215 on the cavity wall of the top plate 10213 located on the side opposite to the opening 10211 can form a second cleaning airflow b pointing towards the transparent observation window 202 under the negative pressure in the sealed cavity 103, thereby self-cleaning the transparent observation window 202.

[0068] The floor brush mechanism 20 is equipped with a roller brush 203 and a suction port 201 located behind the roller brush 203. When the floor brush mechanism 20 is pushed into the sealed cavity 103 through the opening 10211, the suction port 201 is located on the side opposite to the opening 10211. Therefore, under the negative pressure inside the sealed cavity 103, the third air hole 1011 can form a third cleaning airflow c directed towards the suction port 201. The third cleaning airflow c can blow dust and other particles generated during self-cleaning towards the suction port 201, which helps to remove dust and other particles from the sealed cavity 103, ensuring hygiene inside the sealed cavity 103 and improving the self-cleaning effect.

[0069] For more details, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 yes Figure 3 A magnified view of part A in the diagram, as shown below. Figure 5 As shown, in order to limit the direction of the third cleaning airflow c and ensure that the third cleaning airflow c can point to the suction port 201, in this embodiment, a guide groove 1012 is arranged at the bottom of the side wall opposite to the opening 10211 of the seat 101. The guide groove 1012 extends in the direction pointing to the suction port 201, and the third air hole 1011 is arranged at the bottom of the guide groove 1012.

[0070] It is understood that in other embodiments, the guide groove 1012 may not be arranged. For example, the direction of the third air hole 1011 may be restricted by increasing its extension length, and the effect of this embodiment can also be achieved.

[0071] It should be noted that this embodiment only provides one arrangement scheme for the air holes in the base 10. In other embodiments, air holes can be arranged at different positions in the sealing cavity 103 to meet the self-cleaning requirements of different types of floor brush mechanisms 20, and the effect of this embodiment can be achieved.

[0072] In this embodiment, the base 10 is provided with air holes that communicate with the sealing cavity 103. When a negative pressure is formed inside the sealing cavity 103, a clean airflow can be formed at the air holes and blown toward the floor brush mechanism 20, thereby realizing the self-cleaning of the floor brush mechanism 20.

[0073] In this embodiment, the vents on the base 10 are arranged internally to avoid blockage caused by external environmental factors. For details, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 In this embodiment, a first cavity 10216 is formed inside the top plate 10213 of the cover 102. A first air hole 10214 and a second air hole 10215 are arranged on the cavity wall of the first cavity 10216. An interface 10217 communicating with the first cavity 10216 is also arranged on the top plate 10213.

[0074] The base 101 also includes a docking part 1013, on which a mating interface 10132 corresponding to the position of the mating interface 10217 is arranged, and a second cavity 10131 communicating with the mating interface 10132 is formed inside the docking part 1013. A third vent 1011 is arranged inside the base 101 and communicates with the second cavity 10131; wherein, the second cavity 10131 is configured to communicate with the outside.

[0075] Based on this structure, the air holes on the cover 102 and the base 101 are connected to the outside through the second cavity 10131, and neither is in direct contact with the outside, effectively avoiding problems such as blockage.

[0076] Since the negative pressure that can be generated in the sealed cavity 103 is limited, in order to optimize the self-cleaning effect, in another embodiment, the cleaning base station 1 also includes a pneumatic control mechanism. The pneumatic control mechanism includes multiple pneumatic control units, each of which is connected to one or more air holes to control the opening and closing of the air holes. By opening only one or more air holes at a specific location at any given time, the intensity of the cleaning airflow can be effectively increased, thereby improving the self-cleaning effect.

[0077] Specifically, please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a cross-sectional structural diagram of another embodiment of the clean base station of this application. For example... Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the pneumatic control mechanism can be a solenoid valve matrix 11. The solenoid valve matrix 11 includes multiple pneumatic control units that correspond one-to-one with the air holes. Each pneumatic control unit is an independently controllable solenoid valve. The airflow outlet of the solenoid valve is connected to the corresponding air hole through a pipe (not shown in the figure), and the airflow inlet is connected to the external environment, thereby enabling the independent opening and closing of each air hole.

[0078] Of course, in other embodiments, each solenoid valve can be connected to multiple air holes, and only some air holes can be opened at any given time through the independent control of multiple solenoid valves, which can also achieve the purpose of increasing the intensity of clean airflow to a certain extent; or, the air control mechanism can also adopt other structures that can realize the opening and closing control of air holes, all of which can achieve the effect of this embodiment.

[0079] In other embodiments, the cleaning base station 1 may not be equipped with a pneumatic control mechanism, and the air vents may be directly connected to the outside. In this case, under the negative pressure inside the sealed cavity 103, each air vent can also form a clean airflow, achieving an effective self-cleaning effect.

[0080] To facilitate the integrated layout and maintenance of the pneumatic control mechanism, simplify the structure of the cleaning base station 1, and avoid exposing the pipes of the pneumatic control mechanism, in this embodiment, the solenoid valve matrix 11 is built inside the second cavity 10131 and is connected to the first air hole 10214 and the second air hole 10215 through pipes that pass through the second cavity 10131 and the first cavity 10216 in sequence; at the same time, the solenoid valve matrix 11 is connected to the third air hole 1011 and the second air hole 10215 through pipes that pass through the second cavity 10131.

[0081] Based on this arrangement, on the one hand, all the pipelines of the gas control mechanism are centrally arranged inside to avoid exposure to the external environment, and on the other hand, the structure is effectively simplified.

[0082] Understandably, in other embodiments, cavities may not be provided inside the cover 102 and the seat 101, and the solenoid valve matrix 11 and / or pipes of the pneumatic control mechanism may be directly exposed. Each solenoid valve can be connected to the corresponding air hole, which can also realize independent opening and closing control of the air hole.

[0083] In other embodiments, the first air hole 10214 and the second air hole 10215 may not be arranged on the cover 102, and the solenoid valve matrix 11 arranged inside the second cavity 10131 may only be connected to the third air hole 1011; or, the third air hole 1011 may not be arranged on the seat 101, and the solenoid valve matrix 11 arranged inside the second cavity 10131 may only be connected to the first air hole 10214 and the second air hole 10215; or, the solenoid valve matrix 11 may also be arranged inside the first cavity 10216 and connected to the first air hole 10214, the second air hole 10215 and / or the third air hole 1011, etc., all of which can achieve the effect of this embodiment.

[0084] In the above embodiments, the source of negative pressure inside the sealed cavity 103 can be the cleaning device 2. When the cleaning device 2 is connected to the cleaning base station 1, the cleaning device 2 can continuously run air suction to form negative pressure inside the sealed cavity 103.

[0085] Since the suction power of the cleaning device 2 is limited, in another embodiment, to increase the negative pressure intensity, the source of the negative pressure inside the sealed cavity 103 can also be the dust collection airflow of the cleaning base station 1. Specifically, please refer to... Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 This is a cross-sectional structural diagram of another embodiment of the clean base station of this application. Figure 8 This is a cross-sectional structural diagram of another embodiment of the cleaning base station and cleaning equipment connection state of this application.

[0086] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the cleaning base station 1 also includes a dust collection seat 12 arranged above the base 10. The dust collection seat 12 is equipped with a dust collection fan 121 and a dust collection chamber 122, wherein the air intake of the dust collection fan 121 is connected to the dust collection chamber 122.

[0087] The cleaning device 2 has a dust collection port 21 that is connected to the dust suction port 201 of the floor brush mechanism 20. When the cleaning device 2 is connected to the cleaning base station 1, the dust collection port 21 is connected to the dust collection chamber 122.

[0088] Therefore, when the dust collection fan 121 is running, negative pressure can be formed in the sealed cavity 103 through the air duct inside the cleaning device 2, thereby enabling the self-cleaning of the floor brush mechanism 20 at the same time as the cleaning device 2 is performing dust collection operation, and significantly improving the intensity of the cleaning airflow.

[0089] Based on the above embodiments, the cleaning base station 1 utilizes the negative pressure generated during the operation of the cleaning equipment 2 or the dust collection fan 121 to form a clean airflow, which can achieve efficient self-cleaning of different positions of the floor brush mechanism 20 of the cleaning equipment 2, effectively improving the self-cleaning effect and solving the problem of floor brush dirt.

[0090] The following is a self-cleaning strategy using the above-mentioned clean base station 1, specifically including:

[0091] First, turn on the dust collection fan 121, control the first air hole 10214 to open one by one, control the remaining air holes to close, and simultaneously control the floor brush mechanism 20 to perform forward and reverse sweeping vibration. The first cleaning airflow a blows up the dust and other dust on the top surface of the floor brush mechanism 20 and sucks it in through the suction port 201.

[0092] After all the first air holes 10214 have been opened the target number of times, the first air holes 10214 are closed, and the third air holes 1011 are opened one by one. The floor brush mechanism 20 is simultaneously controlled to execute the forward rotation of the roller brush 203, and the third cleaning airflow c blows the dust and other particles in the sealed cavity 103 into the suction port 201.

[0093] After all the third air holes 1011 have been opened a target number of times, the third air holes 1011 are closed, and the second air holes 10215 located on the opposite side of the opening 10211 are opened one by one. At the same time, the roller brush 203 of the ground brush mechanism 20 is reversed, and the second cleaning airflow b performs self-cleaning on the transparent observation window 202.

[0094] This application also provides a cleaning system, such as Figure 8 As shown, the cleaning system includes a cleaning device 2 and a cleaning base station 1 according to any of the above embodiments.

[0095] The cleaning device 2 can be any device that adsorbs dust and dirt through negative pressure, such as a vacuum cleaner or a floor scrubber with a vacuuming function. The cleaning device 2 has a floor brush mechanism 20 that is adapted to the sealed cavity 103 of the cleaning base station 1.

[0096] When the cleaning device 2 is connected to the cleaning base station 1, the dust collection fan 121 of the cleaning base station 1 or the cleaning device 2 can be controlled to generate negative pressure in the sealed cavity 103, thereby forming a cleaning airflow at the air holes in the cavity wall of the sealed cavity 103 and blowing it toward the floor brush mechanism 20, so as to achieve self-cleaning of the floor brush mechanism 20, and discharge the dust and dirt generated by self-cleaning through the dust suction port 201 of the cleaning device 2 into the sealed cavity 103, effectively improving the self-cleaning effect of the floor brush mechanism 20.

[0097] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this disclosure is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that this disclosure can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of this disclosure is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this disclosure.
