The LiDAR is a crucial sensor for the cleaning device and plays a vital role in operational functions such as mapping, navigation, and obstacle avoidance. To ensure high detection accuracy, the LiDAR typically operates at high power. However, this high power output results in increased heat generation, posing a risk of damage due to overheating.

[0021] The following description sets out numerous specific details to provide a more thorough understanding of the technical solutions provided by the present disclosure. However, it is evident to the person skilled in the art that the technical solutions provided by the present disclosure can be implemented without one or more of these details.

[0022] It should be noted that the terms used here serve only to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit exemplary embodiments according to the present disclosure. As used here, singular forms are to include plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Furthermore, it is understood that the terms "comprise" and / or "include," as used in the description, indicate the presence of the specified features, components, steps, operations, elements, and / or assemblies, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, components, steps, operations, elements, assemblies, and / or combinations thereof.

[0023] Exemplary embodiments according to the present disclosure are now described in more detail with reference to the drawings. However, these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in various different forms and should not be interpreted as being limited to the embodiments presented here. It is understood that these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the present disclosure thorough and complete and to fully convey the concepts of these exemplary embodiments to the person skilled in the art.

[0024] As in the Fig. Figures 1 to 8 show an embodiment of the present disclosure providing a cleaning device 100. The cleaning device 100 can be a sweeping robot, a mopping robot, an integrated sweeping and mopping machine, or another cleaning robot that meets the requirements.

[0025] In particular, as in Fig. As shown in Figure 1, the cleaning device 100 comprises, but is not limited to, a machine body 110, a cleaning assembly, a drive assembly, etc. The above assemblies coordinate with each other so that the cleaning device 100 can move autonomously to perform a cleaning function. In the cleaning device 100, functional elements and the like, which constitute the above assemblies, are integrally arranged on the machine body 110. It is understood that the cleaning device 100 can be a self-propelled cleaning device. A self-propelled cleaning device is a device that automatically performs a cleaning operation in a specific area to be cleaned without any user operation.

[0026] As in the Fig. 1, Fig. 2 and Fig. Figure 3 shows that the cleaning device 100 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure comprises: the machine body 110, an environmental detection assembly 120, and a thermally conductive element. The thermally conductive element is mounted on the machine body 110, and the environmental detection assembly 120 is mounted on the thermally conductive element.

[0027] The environmental detection assembly 120 is typically used for the cleaning device 100 to detect the surrounding environment. The environmental detection assembly 120 is an important sensor for the cleaning device 100 and plays a crucial role in operating conditions such as mapping, navigation, and obstacle avoidance.

[0028] The environmental detection assembly 120 can be a sensor module that captures obstacle or environmental information, such as a LiDAR or a camera. The LiDAR can be a Time-of-Flight (TOF) LiDAR, an Indirect Time-of-Flight (ITOF) LiDAR, or similar. In particular, TOF and ITOF LiDARs are widely used in the cleaning device 100 due to their advantages such as high accuracy, high speed, and high resolution. It should be understood that the LiDAR used in the cleaning device 100 can also be of a different type. The camera can be a 3D camera, a conventional camera, or similar.

[0029] The cleaning device 100 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure comprises the machine body 110, the environmental detection assembly 120, and the heat-conducting element. The environmental detection assembly 120 is mounted on the machine body 110 via the heat-conducting element; that is, the heat-conducting element is mounted on the machine body 110, and the environmental detection assembly 120 is mounted on the heat-conducting element. In this way, the heat generated during the operation of the environmental detection assembly 120 is transferred to the machine body 110 via the heat-conducting element and dissipated from the machine body 110. For example, cooling and heat dissipation of the environmental detection assembly 120 can be achieved by ventilation between the machine body 110 and the external environment.Since the surface area of ​​the machine body 110 is much larger than the surface area of ​​the heat-conducting element, the heat-conducting element can alternatively transfer heat continuously to the machine body 110 to cool and dissipate heat from the ambient detection assembly 120. This significantly reduces the temperature of the ambient detection assembly 120, fulfilling the requirements for rapid heat dissipation resulting from increased heat generation due to higher output power of the ambient detection assembly 120 and reducing the risk of damage to the ambient detection assembly 120 due to excessively high temperatures. This can extend the service life of the ambient detection assembly 120 and thus improve the overall reliability of the cleaning device 100. Furthermore, this arrangement can greatly expand the output power range of the ambient detection assembly 120.Since the output power of the environmental detection assembly 120 correlates with the detection accuracy, a high detection accuracy of the environmental detection assembly 120 can be ensured, thereby improving the market competitiveness of the cleaning device 100.

[0030] In particular, the heat-conducting element may be made of a heat-conducting metal or heat-conducting silicone, or may consist of other heat-conducting structures that meet the requirements.

[0031] As in the Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3 and Fig. Figure 4 shows that in some possible implemented embodiments provided by the present disclosure, the cleaning device 100 further comprises: a vacuum blower 130. The machine body 110 is provided with a vacuum air duct, and the vacuum blower 130 is mounted on the machine body 110 and is connected to the vacuum air duct to generate a negative pressure in the vacuum air duct, thereby enabling a vacuuming operation of the cleaning device 100.

[0032] Furthermore, the cleaning device 100 comprises a dust box 160 and a cleaning assembly. The vacuum air duct is connected to the dust box 160, or the dust box 160 can be understood as forming part of the vacuum air duct. The cleaning assembly can be a roller brush or the like. By maintaining some contact with the floor, the roller brush sweeps up debris from the floor and rolls the debris to the front of a vacuum inlet located between the roller brush and the dust box 160. The debris is then sucked into the dust box 160 by suction air generated by the vacuum blower 130, which passes through the vacuum air duct and the dust box 160, thus implementing the vacuuming operation of the cleaning device 100.

[0033] In this embodiment, the vacuum blower 130 is mounted on the machine body 110, and the heat-conducting element is mounted on a housing of the vacuum blower 130. In this way, the heat generated during operation of the environmental detection assembly 120 is transferred via the heat-conducting element to the housing of the vacuum blower 130. During operation of the vacuum blower 130, the flowing airflow draws heat from the housing of the vacuum blower 130, thus cooling and dissipating heat from the heat-conducting element and subsequently from the environmental detection assembly 120. This fulfills the requirement for rapid heat dissipation resulting from increased heat generation due to higher output power of the environmental detection assembly 120 and reduces the risk of damage to the environmental detection assembly 120 due to excessively high temperatures.This extends the service life of the environmental detection assembly 120 and helps to expand the output power range of the environmental detection assembly 120, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the environmental detection assembly 120.

[0034] Furthermore, in this embodiment, by adding the heat-conducting element and combining the existing structure of the vacuum cleaner blower 130 with the cleaning device 100, the environmental detection assembly 120 is mounted to the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130 via the heat-conducting element. This enables rapid cooling and heat dissipation of the environmental detection assembly 120, thus meeting the requirements for rapid heat dissipation despite the high heat generation of the environmental detection assembly 120 and improving user satisfaction. Moreover, this arrangement is structurally simple and cost-effective.

[0035] Furthermore, the vacuum blower 130 can be detachably connected to the machine body 110 to facilitate maintenance and replacement. For example, the vacuum blower 130 can be detachably connected to the machine body 110 by at least one of the following: a bolted connection, a snap-fit ​​connection, a plug-in connection, a mortise-and-tenon connection, or a magnetic connection. It is understood that in other examples, the vacuum blower 130 and the machine body 110 can alternatively be permanently connected by structures such as welding.

[0036] As in the Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3 and Fig. Figure 4 shows that, in some possible implemented embodiments provided by the present disclosure, the cleaning device 100 further comprises a counterweight block 140. The counterweight block 140 is connected to the machine body 110 to counteract any weight distribution of the cleaning device 100. The arrangement of the counterweight block 140 can improve the stability of the overall center of gravity of the cleaning device 100, thereby improving the operational stability and reliability of the cleaning device 100.

[0037] In this embodiment, the counterweight block 140 is configured as the aforementioned heat-conducting element; that is, the counterweight block 140 has heat-conducting properties. The ambient detection assembly 120 is mounted on the counterweight block 140, and the counterweight block 140 is mounted on the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130. Thus, the heat generated during the operation of the ambient detection assembly 120 is transferred to the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130 via the heat-conducting counterweight block 140.The flowing air generated during the operation of the vacuum cleaner blower 130 draws heat away from the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130, thus cooling and dissipating heat from the counterweight block 140 and subsequently from the ambient detection assembly 120. This fulfills the requirement for rapid heat dissipation resulting from the increased heat generation due to the higher output power of the ambient detection assembly 120 and reduces the risk of damage to the ambient detection assembly 120 due to excessively high temperatures. This can extend the service life of the ambient detection assembly 120 and thus improve the overall reliability of the cleaning device 100.Furthermore, this arrangement helps to extend the output power range of the environmental detection assembly 120, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the environmental detection assembly 120.

[0038] In this embodiment, the environmental detection assembly 120 is mounted on the existing counterweight block 140 of the cleaning device 100, enabling rapid cooling and heat dissipation of the environmental detection assembly 120 by utilizing the existing structures of the counterweight block 140 and the vacuum blower 130 of the cleaning device 100. This arrangement requires few design modifications and achieves a simple structure and low cost, making it suitable for widespread application.

[0039] In particular, the counterweight block 140 can be a metallic thermally conductive element or a non-metallic thermally conductive element. For example, the counterweight block 140 can be an iron block, a copper block, or the like. Alternatively, the counterweight block 140 can be made of thermally conductive silicone or the like.

[0040] As in the Fig. 5 and Fig. As shown in Figure 8, in the above embodiment the counterweight block 140 is provided with a mounting section 142. The mounting section 142 is configured for mounting the environmental detection assembly 120; that is, the environmental detection assembly 120 is connected to the mounting section 142. Thus, the environmental detection assembly 120 can be reliably and stably attached to the counterweight block 140 via the mounting section 142 to improve the operational reliability of the environmental detection assembly 120 and to ensure good detection accuracy of the environmental detection assembly 120.

[0041] In particular, the mounting section 142 can be at least one of a mounting hole and one of a mounting groove. Alternatively, the mounting section 142 can be a limiting rib, a projection, or the like. In particular, the mounting hole can be at least one of a circular hole, a rectangular hole, a regularly shaped hole, and an irregularly shaped hole. The mounting groove can be at least one of a through groove, a countersink, a snap groove, and a plunge groove, and the shape of the mounting groove can also be at least one of a circular hole, a rectangular hole, a regularly shaped hole, and an irregularly shaped hole.It is understood that the assembly section 142 can be shaped to correspond to at least one part of the environmental detection assembly 120 in order to provide effective pre-positioning and limiting for the environmental detection assembly 120, thereby improving the efficiency and suitability of assembling the environmental detection assembly 120 with the counterweight block 140.

[0042] In particular, the environmental detection assembly 120 can also be attached to the mounting section 142 by other means such as an adhesive or a hot-melt adhesive, thereby ensuring the reliability and stability of the fixed connection between the environmental detection assembly 120 and the counterweight block 140. Alternatively, the environmental detection assembly 120 can also be attached to the mounting section 142 by at least one of a bolt structure, a plug-in structure, a snap-in structure, or the like, thereby achieving a removable connection between the environmental detection assembly 120 and the counterweight block 140, thus facilitating the maintenance and replacement of the environmental detection assembly 120.

[0043] As in the Fig. 6 and Fig. As shown in Figure 7, in some possible implemented embodiments provided by the present disclosure, a spacer section 141 is provided on a base of the counterweight block 140 and the spacer section 141 fits at least a part of the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130.

[0044] The arrangement of the spacer section 141 reduces the distance between the counterweight block 140 and at least part of the housing of the vacuum blower 130. This allows the heat generated during operation of the environmental detection assembly 120 to be rapidly transferred via the counterweight block 140 to the housing of the vacuum blower 130, thereby significantly improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the environmental detection assembly 120 and ensuring effective heat dissipation. Furthermore, the arrangement of the spacer section 141 enables a compact arrangement of the counterweight block 140 and the vacuum blower 130 and reduces the gap between the counterweight block and the vacuum blower, thus fulfilling the design requirements for a compact arrangement and small volume of the cleaning device 100.

[0045] In particular, the spacing section 141 can be a structure such as a spacing groove or a spacing notch. One, two, three or more spacing sections 141 can be provided.

[0046] As in the Fig. Figures 1 to 5 show that, in some possible implemented embodiments provided by the present disclosure, the cleaning device 100 further comprises: a mounting frame 150. The mounting frame 150 is connected to the housing of the vacuum blower 130 and the heat-conducting element is connected to the mounting frame 150.

[0047] In other words, the heat-conducting element is connected to the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130 via the mounting frame 150. The arrangement of the mounting frame 150 eliminates the need to modify the structure of the vacuum cleaner blower 130's housing; that is, it is unnecessary to change the overall structure of the vacuum cleaner blower 130. Simply by adding the mounting frame 150, which adapts to the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130 and the heat-conducting element, the assembly of the heat-conducting element and the vacuum cleaner blower 130 can be achieved, which is operationally simple and facilitates convenient installation.

[0048] It is understood that in this example, the ambient detection assembly 120 can be mounted on the thermally conductive element, and the thermally conductive element can be directly connected to the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130 via the mounting frame 150. Alternatively, the thermally conductive element can be the counterweight block 140, the ambient detection assembly 120 can be mounted on the counterweight block 140, and the counterweight block 140 can be directly connected to the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130 via the mounting frame 150. In other words, the thermally conductive element in this example can either be the counterweight block 140 with a thermally conductive function or a separate thermally conductive element distinct from the counterweight block 140.

[0049] In particular, the mounting frame 150 can be detachably connected to the housing of the vacuum blower 130. For example, the mounting frame 150 can be detachably connected to the housing of the vacuum blower 130 by at least one bolt structure, a snap structure, a plug structure, a mortise and tenon structure, a magnetic structure, and the like. Alternatively, the mounting frame 150 and the housing of the magnetic blower can be permanently connected by a weld structure and an adhesive.

[0050] In particular, the mounting frame 150 can be detachably connected to the heat-conducting element. For example, the mounting frame 150 can be detachably connected to the heat-conducting element by at least one bolt structure, a snap structure, a plug structure, a mortise and tenon structure, a magnetic structure, and the like. Alternatively, the mounting frame 150 and the heat-conducting element can be permanently connected by one welding structure and one adhesive.

[0051] It is understood that if the heat-conducting element is the counterweight block 140, the mounting frame 150 is connected to the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130 and the counterweight block 140 is connected to the mounting frame 150.

[0052] Furthermore, the mounting frame 150 can be made of a thermally conductive material. For example, the mounting frame 150 can be a thermally conductive metal element or a thermally conductive silicone element. The reliable connection between the thermally conductive element and the vacuum cleaner blower 130, ensured by the mounting frame 150, guarantees that the heat from the thermally conductive element is quickly transferred to the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130, thus ensuring efficient and effective cooling and heat dissipation of the environmental detection assembly 120.

[0053] As in the Fig. Figures 1 to 5 show that, in other possible implemented embodiments provided by the present disclosure, the cleaning device 100 further comprises: a counterweight block 140. The counterweight block 140 is connected to the machine body 110 to compensate for any weight distribution of the cleaning device 100, and the heat-conducting element is mounted on the counterweight block 140.

[0054] In other words, in this embodiment, the cleaning device 100 comprises the counterweight block 140 and the heat-conducting element (not shown). The arrangement of the counterweight block 140 can improve the stability of the overall center of gravity of the cleaning device 100, thereby improving its operational stability and reliability. The environmental detection assembly 120 is mounted to the counterweight block 140 via the heat-conducting element. In this way, the heat generated during the operation of the environmental detection assembly 120 is transferred to the counterweight block 140 via the heat-conducting element and dissipated by the counterweight block 140. For example, cooling and heat dissipation of the environmental detection assembly 120 is achieved through heat exchange between the counterweight block 140 and the external environment or other components.This allows the temperature of the ambient detection assembly 120 to be significantly reduced, thus meeting the requirements for rapid heat dissipation resulting from increased heat generation due to higher output power of the ambient detection assembly 120 and reducing the risk of damage to the ambient detection assembly 120 due to excessively high temperatures. This can extend the service life of the ambient detection assembly 120 and thus improve the overall reliability of the cleaning device 100. Furthermore, this arrangement can significantly expand the output power range of the ambient detection assembly 120. Since the output power of the ambient detection assembly 120 correlates with detection accuracy, high detection accuracy of the ambient detection assembly 120 can be ensured, thereby improving the market competitiveness of the cleaning device 100.

[0055] In some possible implemented embodiments provided by the present disclosure, the counterweight block 140 is made of a thermally conductive material. This improves the speed and efficiency of heat transfer to the counterweight block 140 via the thermally conductive element, thereby enhancing the cooling and heat dissipation efficiency of the ambient detection assembly 120 and ensuring good cooling and heat dissipation performance of the ambient detection assembly 120.

[0056] The counterweight block 140 can be made of a metallic, thermally conductive material. For example, the counterweight block 140 can be an iron block, a copper block, or the like. Alternatively, the counterweight block 140 can be made of a non-metallic, thermally conductive material. For example, the counterweight block 140 can be made of thermally conductive silicone.

[0057] In particular, the thermal conductivity of the counterweight block 140 can be greater, less than or equal to that of the heat-conducting element.

[0058] As in the Fig. Figures 1 to 5 show that, in some possible implemented embodiments provided by the present disclosure, the cleaning device 100 further comprises: a vacuum blower 130. The machine body 110 is provided with a vacuum air duct, the vacuum blower 130 is connected to the vacuum air duct to generate a negative pressure in the vacuum air duct, and the counterweight block 140 is mounted on a housing of the vacuum blower 130.

[0059] In this way, the heat generated during the operation of the environmental detection assembly 120 is transferred via the heat-conducting element to the counterweight block 140 and then via the counterweight block 140 to the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130.During operation of the vacuum cleaner blower 130, the flowing air extracts heat from the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130, thus cooling and dissipating heat from the counterweight block 140. The heat from the ambient detection assembly 120 is then quickly and continuously transferred to the counterweight block 140 via the heat-conducting element, thus cooling and dissipating heat from the ambient detection assembly 120. This meets the requirements for rapid heat dissipation resulting from increased heat generation due to the increased output power of the ambient detection assembly 120 and reduces the risk of damage to the ambient detection assembly 120 due to excessively high temperatures. This can extend the service life of the ambient detection assembly 120 and thus improve the overall reliability of the cleaning device 100.Furthermore, this arrangement helps to extend the output power range of the environmental detection assembly 120, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the environmental detection assembly 120.

[0060] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the addition of the heat-conducting element and the combination of the existing structures of the counterweight block 140 and the vacuum blower 130 of the cleaning device 100 enable rapid cooling and heat dissipation of the environmental detection assembly 120. This fulfills the requirement for rapid heat dissipation resulting from the high heat generation of the environmental detection assembly 120, thereby improving user satisfaction. Moreover, this arrangement is structurally simple and cost-effective.

[0061] As in the Fig. Figures 1 to 5 show that, in some possible implemented embodiments provided by the present disclosure, the cleaning device 100 further comprises: a mounting frame 150. The mounting frame 150 is connected to the housing of the vacuum blower 130 and the counterweight block 140 is connected to the mounting frame 150.

[0062] In other words, the counterweight block 140 is connected to the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130 via the mounting frame 150. The arrangement of the mounting frame 150 eliminates the need to modify the structure of the vacuum cleaner blower 130's housing; that is, it is unnecessary to change the overall structure of the vacuum cleaner blower 130. Simply by adding the mounting frame 150, which adapts to the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130 and the counterweight block 140, the assembly of the counterweight block 140 and the vacuum cleaner blower 130 can be achieved, which is operationally simple and facilitates convenient assembly.

[0063] It is understood that in this example the environmental detection assembly 120 can be mounted on the heat-conducting element, the heat-conducting element can be mounted on the counterweight block 140, and the counterweight block 140 can be connected to the housing of the vacuum blower 130 via the mounting frame 150.

[0064] In particular, the mounting frame 150 can be detachably connected to the housing of the vacuum blower 130. For example, the mounting frame 150 can be detachably connected to the housing of the vacuum blower 130 by at least one bolt structure, a snap structure, a plug structure, a mortise and tenon structure, a magnetic structure, and the like. Alternatively, the mounting frame 150 and the housing of the magnetic blower can be permanently connected by a weld structure and an adhesive.

[0065] In particular, the mounting frame 150 can be detachably connected to the counterweight block 140. For example, the mounting frame 150 can be detachably connected to the counterweight block 140 by at least one bolt structure, snap-fit ​​structure, plug-in structure, mortise-and-tenon structure, magnetic structure, and the like. Alternatively, the mounting frame 150 and the counterweight block 140 can be permanently connected by one welding structure and one adhesive bond.

[0066] Furthermore, the mounting frame 150 can be made of a thermally conductive material. For example, the mounting frame 150 can be a thermally conductive metal frame or a thermally conductive silicone frame. The reliable connection between the counterweight block 140 and the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130, ensured by the mounting frame 150, guarantees that the heat from the counterweight block 140 is quickly transferred to the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130, thus ensuring efficient and effective cooling and heat dissipation of the environmental detection assembly 120.

[0067] As in the Fig. 5 and Fig. As shown in Figure 8, in the above embodiment, the counterweight block 140 is provided with a mounting section 142. The mounting section 142 is configured to mount the thermally conductive element; that is, the thermally conductive element is connected to the mounting section 142. Thus, the thermally conductive element can be reliably and stably attached to the counterweight block 140 via the mounting section 142. Since the environmental detection assembly 120 is mounted on the thermally conductive element, and the thermally conductive element is mounted on the mounting section 142 of the counterweight block 140, the environmental detection assembly 120 can be indirectly attached to the counterweight block 140 to improve the operational reliability of the environmental detection assembly 120 and to ensure good detection accuracy of the environmental detection assembly 120.

[0068] In particular, the mounting section 142 can be at least one of a mounting hole and one of a mounting groove. Alternatively, the mounting section 142 can be a limiting rib, a projection, or the like. In particular, the mounting hole can be at least one of a circular hole, a rectangular hole, a regularly shaped hole, and an irregularly shaped hole. The mounting groove can be at least one of a through groove, a countersink, a snap groove, and a plunge groove, and the shape of the mounting groove can also be at least one of a circular hole, a rectangular hole, a regularly shaped hole, and an irregularly shaped hole.It is understood that the mounting section 142 can correspond in shape to at least part of the heat-conducting element in order to provide effective pre-positioning and limiting for the heat-conducting element, thereby improving the efficiency and suitability of mounting the heat-conducting element with the counterweight block 140.

[0069] In particular, the thermally conductive element can also be attached to the mounting section 142 by other means such as an adhesive or a hot-melt adhesive, thereby ensuring the reliability and stability of the attachment between the thermally conductive element and the counterweight block 140. Alternatively, the thermally conductive element can also be attached to the mounting section 142 by at least one bolted, plug-in, snap-in, or similar connection, thereby achieving a removable connection between the thermally conductive element and the counterweight block 140. This facilitates the removal of the environmental detection assembly 120 from the counterweight block 140 by removing the thermally conductive element from the counterweight block 140, thus simplifying maintenance and replacement of the environmental detection assembly 120.

[0070] As in the Fig. 6 and Fig.As shown in Figure 7, in some possible implemented embodiments provided by the present disclosure, a spacer section 141 is provided on a base of the counterweight block 140 and the spacer section 141 fits at least a part of the housing of the vacuum cleaner blower 130.

[0071] The arrangement of the spacer section 141 reduces the distance between the counterweight block 140 and at least part of the housing of the vacuum blower 130. This allows the heat generated during operation of the environmental detection assembly 120 to be rapidly transferred via the counterweight block 140 to the housing of the vacuum blower 130, thereby significantly improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the environmental detection assembly 120 and ensuring effective heat dissipation. Furthermore, the arrangement of the spacer section 141 enables a compact layout for the counterweight block 140 and the vacuum blower 130 and reduces the gap between the counterweight block and the vacuum blower, thus fulfilling the design requirements for a compact layout and small volume of the cleaning device 100.

[0072] In particular, the spacing section 141 can be a structure such as a spacing groove or a spacing notch. One, two, three or more spacing sections 141 can be provided.

[0073] In some possible implemented embodiments provided by the present disclosure, the weight of the environmental detection assembly 120 does not exceed 10 g. For example, the weight of the environmental detection assembly 120 can be 1 g, 2 g, 5 g, 8 g, 10 g, or other weights. As such, the overall weight of the environmental detection assembly 120 is low. If the environmental detection assembly 120 is mounted directly on the counterweight block 140, or if the environmental detection assembly 120 is mounted indirectly on the counterweight block 140 via the heat-conducting element, the weight of the environmental detection assembly 120 has less influence on the weight of the counterweight block 140. Therefore, without changing the existing structure of the counterweight block 140, the counterweight block 140 can still be ensured to effectively balance the weight distribution of the cleaning device 100.The stability of the overall center of gravity of the cleaning device 100 can still be ensured, thereby improving the operational stability and reliability of the cleaning device 100. Therefore, the cleaning device provided by the present disclosure has a good cooling and heat dissipation effect for the environmental detection assembly 120 with only minor modifications to the existing structure of the cleaning device 100. This design is cost-effective and easy to implement, making it suitable for widespread application.
