[0021] Now, exemplary embodiments will be described more fully with reference to the drawings. However, the exemplary embodiments can be implemented in a variety of forms and should not be understood as being limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, by providing these embodiments, the present disclosure will be thorough and complete, and the concept of the exemplary embodiments will be fully conveyed to those skilled in the art. In the drawings, the same reference numerals indicate the same or similar structures, and therefore detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted.

[0022] An embodiment of the present disclosure first provides a cleaning device, which may be, for example, a mop / scrub robot, a vacuum suction robot, a window climbing robot, etc. As shown in Figure 1, the cleaning device 30 includes a wiping mechanism and a dust cloth with a vibration cleaning function.

[0023] 4 to 8, the wiping mechanism 10 includes a wiping assembly 100 and a vibration assembly 200. The wiping assembly 100 includes a vibration plate 110 and a fixed plate 400, and the vibration assembly 200 is arranged to drive the vibration plate 110 to reciprocate in a predetermined direction relative to the fixed plate 400. The dust cloth 20 is attached to the wiping assembly 100 of the wiping mechanism 10 and wipes a target surface by driving the wiping mechanism 10.

[0024] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the dustpan 20 includes a fixed region and multiple movable regions, and the multiple movable regions are distributed in the front-to-rear direction of the cleaning device 30, where the front-to-rear direction is the forward direction X and backward direction Y of the cleaning device 30, and the forward direction X and the backward direction Y are two parallel directions that are opposite in direction.

[0025] Here, the dust cloth 20 is one piece, and the area of ​​the dust cloth 20 corresponding to the vibration plate 110 is the movable area, and the area of ​​the dust cloth 20 corresponding to the fixed plate 400 is the fixed area.

[0026] In the dustcloth 20 provided in the present application, multiple movable areas are distributed in the front-to-rear direction of the cleaning device 30. First, the movable area at the front end close to the forward direction X is aligned with the vibration plate 110 to clean the dirt, and the movable area at the front end is used as a decomposition area, and by driving the vibration plate 110, stubborn dirt is preferentially processed and decomposed with high strength. Next, the movable area at the rear is used for finishing and strengthening, and the movable area at the rear is used as a strengthening area, and the strengthening area continues to erase the dirt through directional vibration, further improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 30.

[0027] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, of two adjacent movable areas, the area of ​​the movable area closer to the forward direction X of the cleaning device 30 is larger than the area of ​​the movable area further from the forward direction X. Of the two adjacent movable areas, the area of ​​the movable area closer to the forward direction Y of the cleaning device 30 is made larger than the area of ​​the movable area further from the forward direction X, thereby forming movable areas with different areas. First, the movable area with the larger area at the front end is aligned with the vibrating plate 110 to clean dirt, and the movable area with the larger area at the front end is used as the decomposition area, and by driving the vibrating plate 110, large-area and stubborn dirt is preferentially treated and decomposed with high intensity. Next, the movable area with the smaller area at the rear is used for finishing and strengthening, and the rear movable area is used as the strengthening area, and the strengthening area continues to remove dirt using directional vibrations in a small range, further improving the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of the cleaning device 30.

[0028] Here, two adjacent movable areas may have the same length in the forward direction X, but different widths in the width direction Z perpendicular to the forward direction X, thereby achieving different areas. Of course, the lengths of the two movable areas in the forward direction X may also be different.

[0029] Here, the areas of the plurality of movable areas may be the same, or some of the movable areas may have the same area and some of the movable areas may have different areas, and this is not limited to this in the present application.

[0030] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, at least some of the fixed areas are located closer to the backward direction of the cleaning device among the plurality of movable areas. First, the movable area with a larger area at the front aligns with the vibration plate 110 to clean the dirt, and by driving the vibration plate 110, it preferentially processes and breaks down the large and stubborn dirt with high intensity. Next, the movable area with a smaller area at the rear finishes and strengthens, and continues erasing with directional vibration in a small range. Finally, the fixed area serves as an erasing area to absorb and erase the cleaned dirt together with the cleaning liquid, thoroughly cleaning the floor surface, and further improving the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of the cleaning device 30.

[0031] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in Figures 2 to 4, the dustpan 20 includes a cleaning layer 21 and an adhesive layer 22, the cleaning layer 21 includes a cleaning surface and a back surface facing each other, the adhesive layer 22 includes a first surface and a second surface facing each other, the adhesive layer 22 is laminated on the cleaning layer 21, and the first surface and the back surface are arranged opposite each other, and the second surface of the adhesive layer 22 is arranged to adhere to a target object.

[0032] Here, the adhesive layer 22 includes separate first and second adhesive portions 221 and 222, with the first adhesive portion 221 located in the fixed region and the second adhesive portion 222 located in the movable region. The fixed region of the cleaning layer 21 is adhered to the fixed plate 400 of the cleaning device 30 by the first adhesive portion 221, and the multiple movable regions of the cleaning layer 21 are adhered to the vibration plate 110 of the cleaning device 30 by the second adhesive portion 222.

[0033] In the cleaning cloth 20 provided in the present disclosure, the adhesive layer 22 includes a first adhesive portion 221 and a second adhesive portion 222 which are separate, the first adhesive portion 221 being located in the fixed area of ​​the cleaning layer 21, and the second adhesive portion 222 being located in the movable area of ​​the cleaning layer 21. In order to realize fixation in the cleaning device, the cleaning cloth 20 can be connected to the fixed plate 400 of the cleaning device by the first adhesive, and to the vibration plate 110 of the wiping mechanism 10 by the second adhesive portion 222. At the same time, since the first adhesive portion 221 and the second adhesive portion 222 are provided separately, when the vibration plate 110 of the wiping mechanism 10 vibrates relative to the fixed plate 400, the first adhesive portion 221 and the second adhesive portion 222 do not interfere with each other, which avoids interference when vibrating the vibration plate 110 and further improves the cleaning effect.

[0034] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the wiping assembly 100 includes a plurality of vibration plates 110, and the cleaning layer 21 includes a plurality of movable areas corresponding one-to-one to the plurality of vibration plates 110. The adhesive layer 22 includes a plurality of separate second adhesive portions 222, with at least one second adhesive portion 222 corresponding to each movable area. After the cleaning cloth 20 is fixed to the wiping mechanism 10, the plurality of second adhesive portions 222 are located on the plurality of vibration plates 110. By including a plurality of movable areas in the cleaning layer 21 using the plurality of vibration plates 110, the area of ​​the movable area of ​​the cleaning layer 21 can be further increased, and the cleaning effect of the cleaning layer 21 can be further improved.

[0035] Here, the cleaning layer 21 may include, for example, two movable areas, and by providing two movable areas, the overall size of the dustpan 20 can be effectively utilized, allowing each functional area to have a sufficient area and effectively perform its function. Of course, the cleaning layer 21 may include, for example, three, four, or more movable areas, but this application is not limited to this.

[0036] Here, one, two or more second adhesive portions 222 may be provided corresponding to each movable area, and adhesion to the vibration plate 110 of the wiping mechanism 10 is achieved by one or more second adhesive portions 222 in the movable area.

[0037] When one second adhesive portion 222 is provided for each movable area, the shape and size of the second adhesive portion 222 match or nearly match the shape and size of the diaphragm 110 to ensure connection reliability between the movable area and the diaphragm 110. For example, when the shape of the diaphragm 110 is rectangular, the shape of the second adhesive portion 222 is also a matching rectangle, and the second adhesive portion 222 overlaps or nearly overlaps the edge of the diaphragm 110 after bonding.

[0038] When multiple second adhesive portions 222 are provided in each movable area, the multiple second adhesive portions 222 may be closely arranged to ensure connection reliability between the movable area and the diaphragm 110. The overall shape and size of the adhesive portion formed by the closely arranged multiple second adhesive portions 222 may match or nearly match the shape and size of the diaphragm 110. For example, if the shape of the diaphragm 110 is rectangular, the overall shape of the adhesive portion formed by the closely arranged multiple second adhesive portions 222 is also a matching rectangle, and the edges of the adhesive portion formed by the closely arranged multiple second adhesive portions 222 overlap or nearly overlap with the edges of the diaphragm 110 after bonding. Of course, the multiple second adhesive portions 222 may be provided at regular intervals. Here, the shapes and sizes of the multiple second adhesive portions 222 may be the same or different.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of second adhesive portions 222 matches the number of movable areas, i.e., the number of second adhesive portions 222 matches the number of vibration plates 110 in the wiping mechanism 10, and the multiple second adhesive portions 222 are located in the multiple movable areas in one-to-one correspondence with the multiple movable areas. By locating the multiple second adhesive portions 222 in the multiple movable areas in one-to-one correspondence with the multiple movable areas, one vibration plate 110 corresponds to one second adhesive portion 222, and it becomes easy to attach the cleaning cloth 20 to the vibration plate 110 of the wiping mechanism 10 via the second adhesive portions 222.

[0040] Here, the shapes and sizes of the vibration plates 110 in the wiping mechanism 10 may be the same or different, and the shapes and sizes of the multiple second adhesive portions 222 located on different vibration plates 110 may be the same or different.

[0041] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the second side of adhesive layer 22 comprises a hook side of a Velcro fastener, or the second side of adhesive layer 22 comprises a loop side of a Velcro fastener, or the second side of adhesive layer 22 comprises both a hook side and a loop side of a Velcro fastener.

[0042] Here, when the second surface of the adhesive layer 22 is a hook surface of Velcro, i.e., when the second surfaces of the first adhesive portion 221 and the second adhesive portion 222 are both hook surfaces of Velcro, a loop surface of Velcro can be provided on the surfaces of the vibration plate 110 and the fixed plate 400 of the wiping mechanism 10, so that the first adhesive portion 221 and the fixed plate 400 can be detachably adhered, and the second adhesive portion 222 and the vibration plate 110 can be detachably adhered.

[0043] Here, when the second surface of the adhesive layer 22 is a loop surface of Velcro, i.e., when the second surfaces of the first adhesive portion 221 and the second adhesive portion 222 are both loop surfaces of Velcro, hook surfaces of Velcro can be provided on the surfaces of the vibration plate 110 and the fixed plate 400 of the wiping mechanism 10, so that the first adhesive portion 221 and the fixed plate 400 can be detachably adhered, and the second adhesive portion 222 and the vibration plate 110 can be detachably adhered.

[0044] Here, when the second surface of the adhesive layer 22 includes a hook surface and a loop surface of the Velcro, for example, when the second surface of the first adhesive portion 221 is the hook surface of the Velcro and the second surface of the second adhesive portion 222 is the loop surface of the Velcro, the loop surface of the Velcro is provided on the surface of the fixed plate 400 of the cleaning device, and the hook surface of the Velcro is provided on the surface of the vibration plate 110, so that the first adhesive portion 221 and the fixed plate 400 are detachably adhered, and the second adhesive portion 222 and the vibration plate Alternatively, if the second surface of the first adhesive portion 221 is a loop surface of a Velcro tape and the second surface of the second adhesive portion 222 is a hook surface of a Velcro tape, the hook surface of the Velcro tape can be provided on the surface of the fixed plate 400 of the cleaning device and the loop surface of the Velcro tape can be provided on the surface of the vibration plate 110, so that the first adhesive portion 221 and the fixed plate 400 can be detachably adhered, and the second adhesive portion 222 and the vibration plate 110 can be detachably adhered. Alternatively, when the second surface of the first adhesive portion 221 simultaneously includes a hook surface and a loop surface of Velcro, the hook surface and the loop surface of Velcro can be provided on the surface of the fixed plate 400 of the cleaning device, and the first adhesive portion 221 and the fixed plate 400 can be detachably attached to each other; when the second surface of the second adhesive portion 222 simultaneously includes a hook surface and a loop surface of Velcro, the hook surface and the loop surface of Velcro can be provided on the surface of the vibration plate 110 of the wiping mechanism 10, and the second adhesive portion 222 and the vibration plate 110 can be detachably attached to each other; or when the hook surface of Velcro is provided on some second surfaces of the plurality of second adhesive portions 222 and the loop surface of Velcro is provided on other second surfaces, the hook surface of Velcro can be provided on some surfaces of the plurality of vibration plates 110 of the cleaning device, and the loop surface of Velcro can be provided on other surfaces, and the plurality of second adhesive portions 222 and the plurality of vibration plates 110 can be detachably attached to each other with Velcro.

[0045] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the adhesive layer 22 and the cleaning layer 21 are connected by stitching. The adhesive layer 22 is fixed onto the cleaning layer 21 by stitching, which facilitates a fixed connection between the adhesive layer 22 and the cleaning layer 21. Later, after the useful life of the cleaning layer 21 has expired, the cleaning layer 21 and the adhesive layer 22 can be easily separated and the adhesive layer 22 can be reused. Of course, the adhesive layer 22 and the cleaning layer 21 may be connected by adhesive, snap-fit ​​connection, or other methods, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0046] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the material of the cleaning layer 21 includes polyester and nylon, and the mass ratio of polyester to nylon is 7:2 to 7:4, such as 7:2, 7:3, 7:4, etc., and this disclosure does not recite each and every ratio here. Because most stains associated with daily life are water-soluble, adjusting the mass ratio of polyester to nylon to 7:2 to 7:4 changes the material of the wiping cloth 20, improving the water content of the wiping cloth 20 and accelerating the dissolution of stains in large amounts of water, thereby improving the cleaning effect. Of course, the mass ratio of polyester to nylon may be less than 7:2 or greater than 7:4, but this disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0047] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the wiping cloth 20 further includes a guide bar 23. The guide bar 23 is connected to the cleaning layer 21 and is used to secure the wiping cloth 20. The guide bar 23 is parallel to the width direction Z of the second fixing portion 222. Because the wiping cloth 20 itself is flexible and prone to wrinkling, providing the guide bar 23 and fixing the guide bar 23 to the cleaning device enables the wiping cloth 20 to be fixed to one side, preventing the wiping cloth 20 from wrinkling due to the side edges of the wiping cloth 20 shrinking inward, improving the flatness of the wiping cloth 20, and improving the cleaning effect of the wiping cloth 20.

[0048] Here, the cleaning layer 21 may be arc-shaped, and the guide bar 23 is provided on a straight side of the cleaning layer 21. The guide bar 23 may be made of a rubber or metal material and may be flat and elongated.

[0049] Here, the guide bar 23 is provided with an engagement structure that matches the fixing structure of the cleaning device. For example, a protrusion is provided on the side of the guide bar 23 away from the cleaning layer 21, and the protrusion is positioned in an engagement groove formed by the fixing structure to regulate the position of the guide bar 23 and fix it to the cleaning layer 21. Of course, if the guide bar 23 is made of a metal material, the guide bar 23 can be fixed to the cleaning device by a magnetic attraction method. The present disclosure does not limit the fixing method of the guide bar 23 to the cleaning device, and any technical solution that can achieve similar technical effects falls within the scope of the claims of the present disclosure.

[0050] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in Figures 5 to 14, a wiping assembly 100 includes a plurality of vibration plates 110, a link 120 is provided between two adjacent vibration plates 110, and the two adjacent vibration plates 110 can move synchronously via the link 120, at least one of the plurality of vibration plates 110 is provided with a connecting groove 1110, and the plurality of vibration plates 110 are connected to each other, where at least one vibration plate 110 is provided with the connecting groove 1110, a vibration assembly 200 includes a vibration device and a vibration link 210, one end of the vibration link 210 is connected to the vibration device and the other end is located in the connecting groove 1110, the vibration assembly 200 is arranged to drive the vibration link 210 to move back and forth along a predetermined direction, and the vibration link 210 is arranged to abut against the side wall of the connecting groove 1110 while moving back and forth along the predetermined direction, causing the plurality of vibration plates 110 to move back and forth.

[0051] In the wiping mechanism 10 provided in the present disclosure, the wiping assembly 100 includes a plurality of vibrating plates 110, and the vibrating assembly 200 can drive the vibrating link 210 to reciprocate in a predetermined direction. Then, as the vibrating link 210 reciprocates in the predetermined direction, it abuts against the side wall of the connecting groove 1110, causing the vibrating plate 110 in which the connecting groove 1110 is located to reciprocate. Since a link 120 is provided between two adjacent vibrating plates 110, when one vibrating plate 110 reciprocates, the other vibrating plate 110 can be reciprocated in sync via the link 120. If the frequency of the reciprocating motion is high, the reciprocating motion of the vibrating plate 110 can be considered a high-frequency vibration, which increases the vibration area of ​​the wiping mechanism 10 and improves the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of the wiping mechanism 10.

[0052] 6 to 14, the wiping assembly 100 includes two diaphragms, i.e., a first diaphragm 111 and a second diaphragm 112, which are identical or nearly identical in shape and size to each other. Of course, the wiping assembly 100 may include three, four, or more diaphragms 110, but this disclosure is not limited thereto. Hereinafter, the present disclosure will describe in detail the specifics of the wiping mechanism assuming that the wiping assembly 100 includes two diaphragms.

[0053] 5 , the wiping mechanism 10 further includes a bottom plate 300. The wiping assembly 100 and the vibration assembly 200 are attached to the bottom plate 300, the vibration device is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 300, the plane in which the vibration plate 110 reciprocates is parallel or approximately parallel to the plane in which the bottom plate 300 is located, the vibration plate 110 is spaced apart from the bottom plate 300, and the two vibration plates 110 are connected to the bottom plate 300 by position restriction structures arranged to form restrictions on the movement of the two vibration plates 110 in the thickness direction of the bottom plate 300 so that the vibration plates 110 reciprocate in a plane parallel or approximately parallel to the bottom plate 300.

[0054] Here, the position restriction structure includes a position restriction arm and a position restriction portion, and a position restriction groove is formed in the position restriction portion. For example, position control arms are provided on both opposite sides of the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112, and a position control portion is provided on the bottom plate 300, and the position control arms are located in the position control grooves to form position control against movement of the multiple diaphragms 110 in the thickness direction of the bottom plate 300; alternatively, position control portions are provided on both opposite sides of the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112, and a position control arm is provided on the bottom plate 300, and the position control arm is located in the position control grooves to form position control against movement of the multiple diaphragms 110 in the thickness direction of the bottom plate 300; alternatively, a position control arm is provided on the first diaphragm 111, a position control portion is provided on the second diaphragm 112, and a position control portion and a position control arm are provided on the bottom plate 300, and the position control arm is located in the position control grooves to form position control against movement of the multiple diaphragms 110 in the thickness direction of the bottom plate 300. Here, the position restriction groove formed by the position restriction portion can accommodate the movement of the position restriction arm when the vibration plate 110 moves back and forth without interfering with the position restriction arm, and by adjusting the height of the position restriction groove in the thickness direction of the bottom plate 300, the size of the gap between the vibration plate 110 and the bottom plate 300 can be adjusted.

[0055] Here, the position control arm may be flat plate-shaped, and the position control portion may be rectangular and annular, and the position control arm and the position control portion are in surface contact with each other, and when the diaphragm 110 moves back and forth, the position control arm and the position control portion cooperate to form a guide action for the diaphragm 110, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the diaphragm 110 during high-frequency vibration.

[0056] Here, in order to improve the strength of the position restriction structure, the position restriction arm and the diaphragm 110 or the bottom plate 300 are integrally formed, and the position restriction portion and the bottom plate 300 or the diaphragm 110 or the bottom plate 300 are integrally formed. Of course, the position restriction arm may be bonded, welded, engaged, riveted, or the like to the diaphragm 110 or the bottom plate 300, and the position restriction portion may be bonded, welded, engaged, riveted, or the like to the bottom plate 300 or the diaphragm 110 or the bottom plate 300, but this disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0057] 6 to 10, two adjacent vibrating plates 110 reciprocate in opposite directions. By reciprocating two adjacent vibrating plates 110 in opposite directions, the vibration area of ​​the wiping mechanism is increased, improving the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of the wiping mechanism, and balancing the forces caused by left and right vibrations during vibration, thereby improving the stability of the wiping mechanism.

[0058] Here, a rotation shaft is provided in bottom plate 300, a through-hole is provided in the middle portion of link 120, and link 120 is attached to the rotation shaft of bottom plate 300 via the through-hole, thereby realizing rotation relative to bottom plate 300. First diaphragm 111 is provided with a first notch 1111, and second diaphragm 112 is provided with a second notch 1121, and both ends of link 120 are respectively located in the notches of two adjacent diaphragms 110, so that when one of the two adjacent diaphragms 110 reciprocates, the side walls of the notches abut against link 120, causing link 120 to swing, and further link 120 causes the other diaphragm 110 to reciprocate in the opposite direction. For example, when the first vibration plate 111 reciprocates, the side wall of the first notch 1111 abuts against the link 120, causing the link 120 to swing, and the other end of the link 120 abuts against the second notch 1121 of the second vibration plate 112, causing the second vibration plate 112 to reciprocate in the opposite direction.

[0059] For example, both ends of link 120 are located only in first notch 1111 and second notch 1121, respectively, and are not connected to first diaphragm 111 and second diaphragm 112. Acting force is transmitted between the ends of link 120 and first diaphragm 111 and second diaphragm 112 by abutment, thus facilitating assembly of first diaphragm 111, second diaphragm 112, and link 120, as well as facilitating maintenance.

[0060] For example, when both ends of the link 120 are located in the first notch 1111 and the second notch 1121, the both ends of the link 120 may be pivotally connected to the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112, respectively. Connection holes may be provided at the ends of the link 120, pivot posts may be provided on the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112, and the link 120 may be fitted onto the pivot posts through the connection holes, thereby realizing the pivotal connection between the link 120 and the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112. Alternatively, connection holes may be provided on the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112, pivot posts may be provided at the ends of the link 120, and the link 120 may extend into the connection holes through the pivot posts, thereby realizing the pivotal connection between the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112.

[0061] For example, three links 120 are provided between the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112. When the first diaphragm 111 reciprocates, the three links 120 are oscillated simultaneously, and the second diaphragm 112 can be reciprocated simultaneously via the three links 120. Because there is a gap between the end of the link 120 and the side wall of the notch, the delay time of the second diaphragm 112 relative to the first diaphragm 111 is short, and the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112 can be considered to be moving synchronously. Of course, one, two, four, or more links 120 may be provided between the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0062] 11 to 14, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the reciprocating motion of a plurality of diaphragms 110 is in the same direction. By making the reciprocating motion of two adjacent diaphragms 110 in the same direction, the vibration area of ​​the wiping mechanism is increased, and the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of the wiping mechanism are improved.

[0063] Here, two adjacent diaphragms 110 are fixedly connected via a link 120, i.e., the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112 can move completely synchronously without delay. Here, both ends of the link 120 and the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112 may be connected by adhesive, welding, engagement, riveting, or other methods to facilitate assembly and maintenance of the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112. Of course, the link 120 and the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112 may be integrally structured to improve the structural strength of the vibration assembly 200 and ensure completely synchronous movement of the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112.

[0064] For example, three links 120 are provided between the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112, and when the first diaphragm 111 reciprocates, the second diaphragm 112 can be simultaneously reciprocated via the three links 120. Of course, one, two, four or more links 120 may be provided between the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0065] 8, 9, 12, and 13, the wiping mechanism further includes a reset assembly 130. The reset assembly 130 includes a fixed arm 131 and an elastic arm 132. The fixed arm 131 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 300, the elastic arm 132 is connected to the fixed arm 131, and the elastic arm 132 is located on the diaphragm 110. When the diaphragm 110 is in its initial position, the elastic arm 132 is in a free state. When the diaphragm 110 moves back and forth away from the initial position, the elastic arm 132 can come into contact with the elastic arm 132 to deform it. By installing the reset assembly 130, on the one hand, positional restrictions are formed for the first vibration plate 111 and the second vibration plate 112 in the direction of reciprocating motion, and on the other hand, the elastic arm 132 increases the movement speed of the first vibration plate 111 and the second vibration plate 112 at the stage when the elastic deformation of the elastic arm 132 recovers during reciprocating motion, thereby improving the wiping effect of the first vibration plate 111 and the second vibration plate 112.

[0066] 8 and 12, two reset assemblies 130 are provided on the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112, and one reset assembly 130 acts simultaneously on the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112. Mounting holes are provided in the elastic arm 132 of the reset assembly 130, and protruding posts are provided on the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112. After the reset assembly 130 is attached to the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112, the protrusions are inserted into the mounting holes, and when the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112 reciprocate, the elastic arm 132 is deformed by the protruding posts provided on the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112. Here, one reset assembly 130 includes two parallel elastic arms 132, and the two elastic arms 132 are connected via three fixed arms 131, which are respectively located in the middle region and opposite side regions of the first vibration plate 111 and the second vibration plate 112, and the fixed arms 131 and the fixed plate 400 may be fixedly connected by a method such as screws.

[0067] Here, the reset assembly 130 may be an integral frame structure, and may be made of plastic or metal materials with good elasticity.

[0068] 8 and 12, the two reset assemblies 130 and the three links 120 are alternately arranged along the direction of reciprocating motion so as to improve the effect of the reset assemblies 130 on the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112. Of course, the two reset assemblies 130 may be arranged adjacent to each other, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0069] Here, first position restriction blocks are provided on both ends of the first diaphragm 111 on the bottom plate 300, and the stroke range of the reciprocating motion of the first diaphragm 111 is restricted by the first position restriction blocks, and second position restriction blocks are provided on both ends of the second diaphragm 112 on the bottom plate 300, and the stroke range of the reciprocating motion of the second diaphragm 112 is restricted by the second position restriction blocks. Here, the first and second position restriction blocks may be elastic rubber blocks, providing a cushioning effect.

[0070] Specifically, as shown in Figures 10 and 14, a mounting notch 1112 is provided on the first vibration plate 111 so that the wiping cloths of the first vibration plate 111 and the second vibration plate 112 can be wetted or cleaning liquid can be injected into the wiping cloths of the first vibration plate 111 and the second vibration plate 112 to improve the cleaning effect, and a water-discharging nozzle 200 is provided near the mounting notch 1112 of the first vibration plate 111. The water-discharging nozzle 200 is connected to a water-discharging device via a hose, and water flowing out from the water-discharging device flows through the water-discharging nozzle 200 to the first vibration plate 111 and the second vibration plate 112.

[0071] Here, one water discharge nozzle may be provided, or multiple water discharge nozzles may be provided. That is, to ensure uniform wetting of the wiping cloths on the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112, the second diaphragm 112 is similarly provided with a mounting notch 1112, and a water discharge nozzle is provided near the mounting notch 1112 of the second diaphragm 112. The multiple water discharge nozzles discharge water onto the first diaphragm 111 and the second diaphragm 112, respectively, to improve the uniformity of water discharge. Here, the water discharge device may be connected to the cleaning liquid outlet of the water tank, and the cleaning liquid may flow to the water discharge device through the cleaning liquid outlet of the water tank. The power / flow rate of the water discharge device may be adjusted to control the amount of water discharge according to actual needs.

[0072] Specifically, independent hook-sided Velcro strips are provided on the surfaces of the plurality of diaphragms 110, i.e., one independent hook-sided Velcro strip is provided on each of first diaphragm 111 and second diaphragm 112. By providing one independent hook-sided Velcro strip on each of first diaphragm 111 and second diaphragm 112, it becomes easy to attach wiping cloths to first diaphragm 111 and second diaphragm 112, as the wiping cloths can be directly attached to the hook surfaces of the Velcro strips. Furthermore, gaps formed by the hook-sided Velcro strips make it easy for the plurality of water-discharging nozzles to spray water onto the wiping cloths on first diaphragm 111 and second diaphragm 112, so that the wiping cloths on first diaphragm 111 and second diaphragm 112 are uniformly wet. Furthermore, by attaching the wiping cloth to the hook surface of the Velcro strips, it becomes easy to clean and replace the wiping cloths.

[0073] Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, the fixed plate 400 and the bottom plate 300 are joined together to form an accommodating space, the vibration assembly 200 is installed in the accommodating space, the fixed plate 400 is provided with a wiping window, the first vibration plate 111 and the second vibration plate 112 are exposed through the wiping window, and the first vibration plate 111 and the second vibration plate 112 are located on the same plane as the fixed plate 400, so that the surfaces of the first vibration plate 111, the second vibration plate 112 and the fixed plate 400 collectively form a wiping surface, that is, a wiping cloth can also be attached by providing hook-sided Velcro on the surface of the fixed plate 400.

[0074] Here, in order to control the size of the gap between the wiping window and the first and second vibration plates 111 and 112 and to prevent foreign matter on the surface to be wiped from passing through the gap and entering the inside of the wiping mechanism, the size of the wiping window must be such that it does not interfere with the reciprocating motion of the first and second vibration plates 111 and 112, and the shape of the wiping window should match the shape of the structure formed together with the first and second vibration plates 111 and 112.

[0075] Specifically, the vibration assembly 200 includes a vibration device and a vibration link 210. The vibration device may be a motor, which outputs power through an output shaft of the motor, to which a driving wheel is connected, and the driving wheel has an asymmetric structure, and the vibration link 210 is connected to the output shaft of the motor through the driving wheel, so that the asymmetric rotation of the driving wheel realizes a reciprocating motion, thereby causing the multiple vibration plates 110 to reciprocate.

[0076] Here, the vibration link 210 includes a first segment and a second segment, which are formed in an L-shape, and the first segment of the vibration link 210 connects the drive wheel and the second segment, extending the vibration link 210 to a predetermined position, where the extension direction of the first segment is perpendicular to the extension direction of the second segment, and the reciprocating motion direction of the vibration link 210 and the running direction of the machine are approximately perpendicular.

[0077] Here, a vibration damper 220 is fitted onto the first segment of the vibration link 210. The vibration damper 220 damps vibration and reduces jitter caused by the drive wheels, allowing the vibration link 210 to oscillate stably within its range of motion. The vibration damper 220 is made of a soft material, and may have a rubber structure. Meanwhile, the vibration damper 220 can also protect the vibration link 210 from damage due to interference with other components.

[0078] Here, since the rotation speed of the motor can be adjusted according to the operating environment of the wiping mechanism, different cleaning effects can be achieved by adjusting the predetermined reciprocating period of the reciprocating motion of the vibrating plate 110, i.e., the vibration frequency of the vibrating plate 110. For example, when operating on flat ground, the predetermined reciprocating period is automatically and dynamically adjusted to be longer, and the water volume of the water pump is automatically and dynamically adjusted to be smaller; when operating on less flat ground, the predetermined reciprocating period is automatically and dynamically adjusted to be shorter, and the water volume of the water pump is automatically and dynamically adjusted to be larger, thereby achieving better cleaning effects.

[0079] Specifically, the cleaning device 30 may further include a moving platform, a sensing system, a control system, a drive system, a cleaning module, an energy system, and a human-machine interaction system.

[0080] Here, the mobile platform may be an autonomous mobile platform or a non-autonomous mobile platform, where the autonomous mobile platform itself can automatically and adaptively make operational decisions based on unexpected environmental inputs, and the non-autonomous mobile platform can execute a determined program or operate according to a certain logic.

[0081] The sensing system includes a positioning device located above the mobile platform, a buffer located at the front of the mobile platform, and sensing devices such as cliff sensors, ultrasonic sensors, infrared sensors, magnetometers, accelerometers, gyroscopes, and odometers located at the bottom of the mobile platform, providing various position and motion status information of the equipment to the control system. Cliff sensors are installed at the bottom of the mobile platform and in front and rear of the drive wheel assembly. The cliff sensors are used to prevent the automatic cleaning equipment from falling when reversing, thereby avoiding damage to the automatic cleaning equipment. The positioning devices include, but are not limited to, cameras and laser ranging devices. Each assembly in the sensing system may operate independently or in cooperation to more accurately achieve the intended function. The cliff sensors and ultrasonic sensors identify the surface to be cleaned and determine its physical characteristics, including the surface material and cleaning level. These can be combined with cameras, laser ranging devices, etc. for more accurate determination. Here, a buffer is provided at the front part of the moving platform, which detects objects in the travel path of the automatic cleaning equipment via a sensor system, for example an infrared sensor, so that the automatic cleaning equipment can pass through the objects detected by the buffer.

[0082] Here, the control system is disposed on a circuit board within the mobile platform and includes a computing processor, such as a central processing unit or an application processor, in communication with a non-transitory memory (e.g., a hard disk, a flash memory, a random access memory, etc.), and the application processor is configured to receive environmental information sensed by the plurality of sensors transmitted by the sensing system, use a localization algorithm to draw a real-time map of the environment in which the automatic cleaning equipment is located based on obstacle information fed back from the laser ranging device, autonomously determine a driving path based on the environmental information and the environmental map, and then control the drive system to perform operations such as moving forward, backward, steering, etc. based on the autonomously determined driving path.

[0083] Here, the drive system includes a drive motor, a drive wheel assembly, and a steering assembly, and the drive motor provides power for rotating the drive wheel assembly and the steering assembly.

[0084] Here, the energy system includes a rechargeable battery, and a charging control circuit, a battery pack charging temperature detection circuit, and a battery undervoltage monitoring circuit may be connected to the rechargeable battery, and the charging control circuit, the battery pack charging temperature detection circuit, and the battery undervoltage monitoring circuit are connected to a single-chip microcomputer control circuit.

[0085] Here, the human-machine interaction system may include buttons on the main body panel for the user to select functions, a display and / or indicator lights and / or speakers for displaying the current device status or device selection items to the user, and a mobile phone client program. For a path-navigation type cleaning device, the mobile phone client can display a map of the environment in which the machine is located and the location of the device to the user, providing the user with richer and more user-friendly functions.

[0086] For example, the cleaning device provided in the present disclosure may be circular as a whole, the wiping mechanism may be arc-shaped, and the wiping mechanism 10 and the cleaning device body may have a detachable connection structure to facilitate assembly and maintenance of the wiping mechanism 10. Of course, the entire cleaning device may have an oval, rectangular, or irregular shape, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
