The embodiments of the present disclosure and the specific features in the embodiments are intended to describe the technical solution of the embodiments of the present disclosure in detail, and do not limit the technical solution of the present disclosure. Unless contradictory, the embodiments of the present disclosure and the technical features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0022] The present disclosure provides a drying appliance 130, a cleaning base station 100, and a cleaning system 10. In a first aspect of the present disclosure, a drying appliance 130 is provided. In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 6, a drying appliance 130 according to the present disclosure may include a base station bottom plate 110b for placing a cleaning appliance 200 thereon, the base station bottom plate 110b having a plurality of exhaust ports 150b formed therein, and a drying assembly 120b provided on at least one side of the base station bottom plate 110b or provided inside the base station bottom plate 110b, the base station bottom plate 110b having an air flow passage 130b provided therein, an air intake port 140b formed in the air flow passage 130b, the air intake port 140b communicating with the drying assembly 120b, the air flow passage 130b communicating with all of the exhaust ports 150b, and a guide assembly 200b provided in the air flow passage 130b for guiding the airflow in the air flow passage 130b to all of the exhaust ports 150b.

[0023] In some embodiments, a guide assembly 200b is provided in the airflow passage 130b, which communicates between the drying assembly 120b and the exhaust ports 150b. The guide assembly 200b guides the airflow in the airflow passage 130b and guides the airflow to each of the exhaust ports 150b, thereby avoiding airflow loss, improving the utilization rate of the overall airflow, improving drying efficiency, reducing drying time, saving power, reducing usage costs, and improving the user experience.

[0024] According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a cleaning base station 100. As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the cleaning base station 100 includes the drying appliance 130 and a base station main body 160 described above.

[0025] Since the cleaning base station 100 provided in the present disclosure includes the drying appliance 130, the cleaning base station 100 provided in the present disclosure has all the beneficial effects of the drying appliance 130, and the description thereof will be omitted here.

[0026] In some optional embodiments, the drying appliance 130 is detachably connected to the base station main body 110. As shown in Figures 4 and 5, in these embodiments, the drying appliance 130 can be an optional appliance of the cleaning base station, and the drying appliance 130 is detachably provided on the base station main body 110, so that the user can choose whether to install the drying appliance 130 on the cleaning base station 100 according to needs. When the drying appliance 130 is installed, the drying appliance 130 can be attached to the base station main body 110, and when the drying appliance 130 does not need to be installed, the drying appliance 130 can be detached from the base station main body 110.

[0027] As another optional embodiment, the drying device 130 may be pre-installed in the base station body 110, for example, the drying assembly 120b of the drying device 130 is pre-installed inside the base station body 110, and the base station bottom plate 110b of the drying device 130 and the bottom plate of the base station body 110 are designed as an integral structure or are joined together.

[0028] In the related art, the drying assembly 120b in the drying device 130 of the cleaning base station 100 communicates with the exhaust port 150b through an airflow passage. As shown in FIG. 7, due to the space limitations of the cleaning base station 100 and the characteristics of the plastic structure, the airflow path of the airflow passage 130b in the drying device 130 is uneven or relatively twisted. The air intake 140b and the air exhaust 150b of the airflow passage 130b may be far away or misaligned. This causes the airflow to have to make multiple turns in the airflow passage 130b, generating large vortices 131b at the turning points and, in turn, generating backflows 132b. The vortices 131b and / or backflows 132b obstruct the forward airflow, resulting in a large attenuation of the flow velocity when the air reaches the exhaust port 150b. This reduces the total amount of air exhausted from the exhaust port 150b per unit time, resulting in serious airflow loss and low drying efficiency. At the same time, the distances between the air intake 140b and each exhaust port 150b are different, and the impact of negative effects such as vortex 131b on each exhaust port 150b is not consistent, which results in different amounts of exhaust air being distributed to each exhaust port 150b and different drying times at different positions on the cleaning assembly, ultimately resulting in a longer time to complete the entire drying process.This lowers the drying efficiency and lengthens the drying time, which not only wastes power but also affects the user experience.

[0029] In some embodiments of the drying appliance 130, the airflow guide assembly 200b is provided in the airflow passage 130b. The airflow guide assembly 200b changes the direction of the airflow in the airflow passage 130b, preventing the airflow from generating vortices 131b or reverse flows 132b at the turning points of the airflow passage 130b. This allows the forward airflow to flow smoothly to the exhaust ports 150b, preventing the airflow from becoming turbulent or slowing down in the airflow passage 130b and improving the total amount of air exhausted from the exhaust ports 150b per unit time. Furthermore, the guiding effect of the airflow guide assembly 200b can uniformly guide the airflow to each exhaust port 150b, making the amount of air exhausted from each exhaust port 150b more uniform. This can approximate the drying times at different positions on the cleaning assembly and shorten the overall drying time, improving drying efficiency, saving power, and improving the user experience.

[0030] 1 and 4, the base station bottom plate 110b has a certain height and defines an airflow passage 130b therein. That is, the airflow passage 130b may be defined by being surrounded by the side walls of the base station bottom plate 110b, and the airflow passage 130b may be configured using the structure of the base station bottom plate 110b itself, or a passage wall may be provided separately within the base station bottom plate 110b, and the airflow passage 130b may be defined by being surrounded by the passage wall. The base station bottom plate 110b has a guide slope that is sloped downward, allowing a cleaning device to travel to the base station bottom plate 110b via the guide slope.

[0031] In the drying appliance 130 of the present disclosure, the exhaust ports 150b opened in the base station bottom plate 110b are determined based on the position of the cleaning assembly when the cleaning appliance is parked at the base station bottom plate 110b, so that the airflow generated by the drying assembly 120b is blown onto the cleaning assembly through the exhaust ports 150b to dry the cleaning assembly. In this embodiment, the multiple exhaust ports 150b are provided at intervals on the top of the guide slope, so that when the cleaning appliance is parked at the base station bottom plate 110b, the exhaust ports 150b correspond to the positions of the cleaning assemblies in the cleaning appliance, so that the airflow discharged from the exhaust ports 150b can oven-dry / blow-dry the cleaning assembly.

[0032] 1, 3, and 4, the dryer assembly 120b may be provided on a side surface of the base station bottom plate 110b. In this case, the airflow passage 130b communicating the dryer assembly 120b and the exhaust port 150b has a structure in which the air intake port 140b is located at one corner of the airflow passage 130b and the exhaust port 150b are arranged side by side at the other end of the airflow passage 130b, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8. The distances between the exhaust ports 150b and the air intake port 140b are different from each other. Based on the distances between the exhaust ports 150b and the air intake port 140b, the exhaust ports 150b can be divided into a proximal-end exhaust port 151b, an intermediate-stage exhaust port 153b, and a distal-end exhaust port 152b.

[0033] As shown in FIG. 7, if the airflow passage 130b is not provided with the air guide assembly 200b, the path along which the airflow flows from the intake port 140b to each exhaust port 150b will have different lengths and angles, and there will be multiple turning points along the path to each exhaust port 150b, causing the airflow to form vortices 131b or backflows 132b at the turning points, which will affect the normal flow of the forward airflow. In addition, since the proximal end exhaust port 151b and the distal end exhaust port 152b are relatively close to the airflow turning point in the airflow passage 130b, the exhaust volume of the proximal end exhaust port 151b and the distal end exhaust port 152b has a greater impact, and the exhaust volume of the proximal end exhaust port 151b and the distal end exhaust port 152b is smaller than the exhaust volume of the intermediate stage exhaust port 153b.As a result, the parts of the cleaning assembly in the cleaning equipment corresponding to the positions of the proximal end exhaust port 151b and the distal end exhaust port 152b have lower drying efficiency and take longer to dry than the parts corresponding to the position of the intermediate stage exhaust port 153b, ultimately resulting in a longer drying time for the entire cleaning assembly.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 8, a guide assembly 200b is provided in the airflow passage 130b, and the guide assembly 200b affects the flow direction of the airflow in the airflow passage 130b, thereby preventing the airflow from generating vortices 131b or reverse flows 132b at the turning points, and preventing the vortices 131b or reverse flows 132b from affecting the forward airflow and reducing the overall exhaust volume. Furthermore, the exhaust volumes of the proximal end exhaust ports 151b and the distal end exhaust ports 152b can be improved, making the exhaust volumes of each exhaust port 150b more uniform and shortening the drying times for the cleaning assemblies 210a of each exhaust port 150b.

[0035] In some other embodiments, the dryer assembly 120b may be provided on the back surface of the base station bottom plate 110b. In this case, the structure of the airflow passage 130b connecting the dryer assembly 120b and the exhaust port 150b is such that, as shown in FIG. 11, the intake port 140b is located at one end of the airflow passage 130b, i.e., the exhaust port 150b can be located at an intermediate position at one end of the airflow passage 130b, and the exhaust port 150b is arranged side by side at the other end of the airflow passage 130b, and the opposing positions of each exhaust port 150b and the intake port 140b are arranged axially symmetrically. Based on the distance between the exhaust port 150b and the intake port 140b, the exhaust port 150b can be divided into an intermediate stage exhaust port 153b and a distal end exhaust port 152b. If the airflow passage 130b does not have a guide assembly 200b, the distal end exhaust port 152b is relatively close to the airflow turning point in the airflow passage 130b, so the exhaust volume of the distal end exhaust port 152b is significantly affected by the vortex 131b or backflow 132b at the airflow turning point, and the exhaust volume of the distal end exhaust port 152b is smaller than the exhaust volume of the intermediate stage exhaust port 153b, resulting in lower drying efficiency of the part of the cleaning assembly 210a of the cleaning equipment 200 corresponding to the position of the distal end exhaust port 152b and a longer drying time than the part of the cleaning assembly corresponding to the position of the intermediate stage exhaust port 153b, ultimately resulting in a longer drying time for the entire cleaning assembly. As shown in FIG. 9, a guide assembly 200b is provided in the airflow passage 130b, and the guide assembly 200b affects the flow direction of the airflow in the airflow passage 130b, thereby preventing the airflow from generating vortices 131b or backflows 132b at the turning points, and preventing the vortices 131b or backflows 132b from affecting the forward airflow and reducing the overall exhaust volume. Furthermore, the exhaust volume of the distal end exhaust port 152b can be improved, the exhaust volume of each exhaust port 150b can be made more uniform, and the drying time for each exhaust port 150b for the cleaning assembly 210a can be made closer, thereby reducing the overall drying time.

[0036] In some other embodiments, the dryer assemblies 120b may be provided on both sides of the base station bottom plate 110b. For the same reasons as in the embodiment, when the dryer assemblies 120b are provided on both sides of the base station bottom plate 110b, the air intake 140b still provides airflow to multiple exhaust vents 150b, which can still cause vortexes 131b or backflows 132b as the airflow flows from the air intake 140b to the exhaust vents 150b. To prevent the airflow from causing vortexes 131b or backflows 132b and affecting drying efficiency, a guide assembly 200b can be provided in the airflow passage 130b of this embodiment, thereby improving the flow direction of the airflow, increasing the amount and uniformity of airflow, reducing the overall drying time, and improving drying efficiency.

[0037] In other embodiments, the drying assembly 120b may be provided inside the base station bottom plate 110b, thereby allowing the drying assembly 120b to be directly connected to the airflow passage 130b provided inside the base station bottom plate 110b.

[0038] In one alternative embodiment, the drying assembly 120b includes a blower 121b, which is connected to an air intake 140b. In this embodiment, the air generated by the blower 121b enters the airflow passage 130b via the air intake 140b and is then blown toward the cleaning assembly of the cleaning device via the air outlet 150b, where the airflow carries away water and water vapor from the cleaning assembly, thereby drying the cleaning assembly. More preferably, the drying assembly 120b further includes a heating element 122, which may be a heating element such as a resistance wire. The relative positions of the heating element 122 and the blower 121b can be adjusted depending on the installation location of the drying assembly 120b. For example, the heating element 122 may be provided at the intake port of the blower 121b and used to heat the air and turn the airflow blown out from the blower 121b into a hot airflow, and for example, the heating element 122 may be provided at the exhaust port of the blower 121b and used to heat the airflow blown out from the blower 121b.

[0039] In one alternative embodiment, the airflow guide assembly 200b includes at least one turning baffle plate 210, which is provided at an airflow turning point in the airflow passage 130b. In this embodiment, by providing a turning baffle plate 210 at the airflow turning point of the airflow passage 130b, the turning baffle plate 210 shields the corner of the airflow passage 130b and isolates the structural position that generates vortices 131b, turbulence, or backflow 132b in the airflow. This makes the turning angle of the airflow when it flows through the corner of the airflow passage 130b gentler, thereby reducing or avoiding the phenomenon that vortices 131b or backflow 132b are likely to occur when the airflow turns suddenly. Furthermore, this prevents the forward airflow from being affected by the vortices 131b or backflow 132b. As a result, the exhaust volume of the exhaust port 150b is not affected by the vortices 131b or backflow 132b, and the total exhaust volume of the drying device 130 can be increased. The structure of the turning baffle plates 210 can be adaptively adjusted according to the corner structure of the airflow passage 130b, and the number of turning baffle plates 210 can be adaptively adjusted according to the number of corners of the airflow passage 130b so that the turning baffle plates 210 can shield the right-angle corner structures of the airflow passage 130b, thereby allowing the airflow direction to be gradually changed by the action of the turning baffle plates 210 when the airflow flows therethrough. In the embodiment shown in Figure 10, the airflow passage 130b has two corner structures, so one turning baffle plate 210 can be provided at each of the two corner structures of the airflow passage 130b, and the turning baffle plates 210 can shield the corner areas of the airflow passage 130b to change the flow direction of the airflow.

[0040] In one alternative embodiment, the turning baffle plate 210 includes an arc-shaped turning surface 211, and the arc-change direction of the arc-shaped turning surface 211 is the same as the airflow turning direction in the airflow passage 130b. In this embodiment, the turning baffle plate 210 has an arc-shaped turning surface 211, and the arc-change direction of the arc-shaped turning surface 211 is the same as the airflow turning direction in the airflow passage 130b. As a result, when the airflow flows through the turning baffle plate 210, the flow direction can be gradually changed along the arc-change direction of the arc-shaped turning surface 211, so that the airflow is guided by the arc-shaped turning surface 211 to change its flow direction, and adverse effects such as the generation of vortices 131b during the airflow turning can be effectively avoided.

[0041] In one embodiment, the turning baffle plate 210 and the base station bottom plate 110b are integrally formed. In this embodiment, the turning baffle plate 210 and the base station bottom plate 110b are integrally formed. The airflow passage 130b may be directly formed in the base station bottom plate 110b by a process such as injection molding, and the turning baffle plate 210 may be formed in the airflow passage 130b. Alternatively, the structure of the base station bottom plate 110b itself may be combined with the turning baffle plate 210 to form an airflow passage 130b inside the base station bottom plate 110b, allowing smooth airflow.

[0042] In one alternative embodiment, the exhaust port 150b includes a proximal end exhaust port 151b that is relatively close to the intake port 140b and a distal end exhaust port 152b that is relatively far from the intake port 140b, and a turning baffle plate 210 adjacent to the distal end exhaust port 152b is provided with a protruding guide curved surface segment 212 at one end adjacent to the intake port 140b. In this embodiment, as shown in Fig. 10, because the distance between the distal end exhaust port 152b and the intake port 140b is relatively far, the airflow that enters the airflow passage 130b from the intake port 140b tends to follow its original direction, i.e., the flow rate of the airflow flowing into the proximal end exhaust port 151b is relatively large and the flow rate of the airflow flowing into the distal end exhaust port 152b is relatively small. In order to improve the exhaust volume of the distal end exhaust port 152b, the turning baffle plate 210 adjacent to the distal end exhaust port 152b is provided with a protruding guide curved surface segment 212 at one end of the turning baffle plate 210 adjacent to the intake port 140b. The protruding guide curved surface segment 212 generates a Coanda effect in part of the airflow at the intake port 140b, and the protruding guide curved surface segment 212 changes the flow direction to the distal end exhaust port 152b, improving the exhaust volume of the distal end exhaust port 152b and bringing the exhaust volume of the distal end exhaust port 152b closer to the exhaust volume of the proximal end exhaust port 151b, thereby solving the problem of small airflow volume when the distal end exhaust port 152b is far from the intake port 140b.

[0043] As one alternative embodiment, the airflow guide assembly 200b further includes an airflow guide member 220b provided in the airflow passage 130b, the airflow guide member 220b having a curved airflow surface 221b for changing the flow direction of the airflow in the airflow passage 130b. In some embodiments, the airflow guide member 220b is provided in the airflow passage 130b and has a curved airflow surface 221b on its surface, which generates a Coanda effect on the airflow at the curved airflow surface 221b, causing the airflow to deviate from its original flow direction as it flows along the curved airflow surface 221b and flow along the surface of the curved airflow surface 221b, thereby allowing the airflow to flow uniformly to each exhaust port 150b due to the action of the curved airflow surface 221b, and making it possible to approximate the exhaust volumes of each exhaust port 150b. 8 and 9, the surface of the guiding member 220b has guiding curved surfaces 221b of different curvatures, giving the guiding member 220b an irregular elliptical shape. The ends of the guiding curved surfaces 221b correspond to the positions of the exhaust ports 150b, i.e., the exhaust ports 150b are located in the airflow path at the ends of the guiding curved surfaces 221b. As the air flows through the guiding member 220b, the Coanda effect occurs, causing the airflow to flow along the guiding curved surfaces 221b, leave the guiding member 220b at the ends of the guiding curved surfaces 221b, and enter the corresponding exhaust ports 150b in the same direction as the guiding curved surfaces 221b. By controlling the installation position of the guiding member 220b and the installation manner of the guiding curved surfaces 221b of the guiding member 220b, the distribution of the airflow direction can be controlled so that the airflow flow rate at each exhaust port 150b is approximately the same.

[0044] In the airflow passage 130b, the relative distances and angles between each exhaust port 150b and the intake port 140b are different, so the proximal exhaust port 151b, which is close to the intake port 140b, has a large airflow rate, while the distal exhaust port 152b, which is far from the intake port 140b, has a small airflow rate. A flow guide member 220b can be provided in the airflow passage 130b, which can adjust the airflow rate to each exhaust port 150b. This solves to some extent the problem of uneven airflow rates at each exhaust port 150b when exhausting from multiple exhaust ports 150b at different positions, which is caused by a large difference in airflow rate between the proximal exhaust port 151b, which is close to the intake port 140b, and the distal exhaust port 152b, which is far from the intake port 140b. This improves the airflow rate at the distal exhaust port 152b, thereby shortening the drying time at the distal exhaust port 152b and further shortening the overall drying time and significantly improving the final drying efficiency.

[0045] In the embodiment shown in Figure 8, by providing a flow guide member 220b, the Coanda effect is utilized to guide the flow of airflow, and the layout of the flow guide member 220b allows the airflow to flow relatively evenly to each exhaust port 150b, improving the exhaust volume of the distal end exhaust port 152b and relatively reducing the exhaust volume of the proximal end exhaust port 151b, thereby making the exhaust volumes of the exhaust ports 150b in each region relatively uniform.

[0046] In the embodiment shown in FIG. 9 , the provision of airflow guider 220b utilizes the Coanda effect to guide the airflow direction, and the layout of airflow guider 220b allows the airflow to be uniformly guided to the distal end exhaust ports 152b on both sides, thereby relatively reducing the exhaust volume of intermediate-stage exhaust port 153b. This solves to some extent the problem of the intermediate-stage exhaust port 153b being close to and positioned corresponding to the air intake port 140b, resulting in a large airflow, and the distal end exhaust ports 152b on both sides being far from and positioned relatively misaligned to the air intake port 140b, resulting in a small airflow. This makes the exhaust volumes of the intermediate-stage exhaust port 153b located in the intermediate region and the distal end exhaust ports 152b on both sides relatively uniform, achieving a simultaneous drying effect, which effectively shortens the overall drying time and improves drying efficiency.

[0047] In some embodiments, the number of airflow guide members 220b is multiple, and the multiple airflow guide members 220b are spaced apart within the airflow passage 130b to guide the airflow in the airflow passage 130b to each of the different exhaust ports 150b. In this embodiment, since there are multiple exhaust ports 150b, multiple airflow guide members 220b can be provided to uniformly guide the airflow to each of the exhaust ports 150b. The cooperative action of the multiple airflow guide members 220b improves the airflow distribution in the airflow passage 130b, allowing the airflow to be directed to each of the exhaust ports 150b. Note that the number of airflow guide members 220b does not necessarily have to correspond to the number of exhaust ports 150b. For example, as shown in FIG. 10 , in this embodiment, the number of exhaust ports 150b is 14, and three airflow guide members 220b may be provided in the airflow passage 130b. 9, in this embodiment, the number of exhaust ports 150b may be 14, and seven air guide members 220b may be provided in the airflow passage 130b. The specific number of air guide members 220b provided may be adaptively adjusted depending on the relative positions and distances between the exhaust ports 150b and the intake port 140b, and the number of exhaust ports 150b.

[0048] In one alternative embodiment, the multiple air guide members 220b have different structures. Because the relative positions of the exhaust ports 150b and the intake ports 140b are different, the angle at which the airflow direction changes varies when guiding the airflow to the exhaust ports 150b at different positions. The exhaust port 150b that is relatively far from the intake port 140b and at a relatively different angle needs to have its airflow direction changed significantly to direct the airflow to that exhaust port 150b. Similarly, the exhaust port 150b that is relatively close to the intake port 140b and at a corresponding angle needs to have its airflow direction changed to some extent to divert some of the airflow to the exhaust port 150b at another position. Therefore, the structure of the guiding members 220b at different positions may be different, i.e., the number, curvature and length of the guiding curved surfaces 221b on the surface of the guiding members 220b may be different, so that the airflow can flow to different exhaust ports 150b under the action of different guiding curved surfaces 221b.

[0049] In one alternative embodiment, all of the flow guide members 220b have flow guide curved surfaces 221b corresponding to the respective exhaust ports 150b. In order to ensure that each of the exhaust ports 150b has a similar airflow rate and to distribute the airflow uniformly to each of the exhaust ports 150b, each of the flow guide members 220b has a flow guide curved surface 221b corresponding to each of the exhaust ports 150b, i.e., each of the exhaust ports 150b has a corresponding flow guide curved surface 221b, and the airflow is guided to each of the exhaust ports 150b by the action of the flow guide curved surfaces 221b. This avoids the problem of a certain exhaust port 150b not having a corresponding flow guide curved surface 221b, resulting in a low airflow rate.

[0050] According to the drying device 130 of the embodiment of the present disclosure, under the same air source conditions, the overall airflow rate of the exhaust ports 150b can be effectively increased, and the larger airflow rate of the exhaust ports 150b can effectively improve the drying efficiency. Under the same air source conditions, the Coanda effect can be used to guide the airflow, optimize the flow path, increase the airflow rate of the distal end exhaust ports 152b, make the airflow rates of each exhaust port 150b closer together, further improve the drying efficiency of the sides of the cleaning system 10, and make the drying time for each position of the cleaning system 10 closer, thereby effectively improving the overall drying efficiency. The improved drying efficiency can save power consumption, save user usage costs, reduce device usage rate, and reduce equipment maintenance costs.

[0051] FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram of a drainage structure 180 according to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 12, the drainage structure 180 according to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure includes a tray 1c and a waste suction pipe 2c. The drainage structure 180 may be applied to a wastewater filter screen assembly of a cleaning base station 100. The cleaning device 200 may be a cleaning robot. The tray 1c is used to collect wastewater 4c. The tray 1c may be rectangular, oval, or circular. At least two water collection tanks 11c are provided on the bottom of the tray 1c, and the water collection tanks 11c have slopes to guide the wastewater to the tray's water outlets 111c. The number of water collection tanks 11c may be two or more. One end of the waste suction pipe 2c is connected to the tray's water outlets 111c, and the other end is connected to a negative pressure suction device to suck the wastewater 4c in the tray 1c. In one or more embodiments, the drainage structure 180 is used to drain the cleaning base station 100. A tray 1c is provided on the bottom surface of the cleaning base station 100, and a negative pressure suction device is provided above the tray 1c.

[0052] In conventional cleaning base stations, the wastewater filter screen assembly is prone to accumulating dirt and wastewater due to the need to filter wastewater. The cleaning base station is unable to absorb all of the dirt and wastewater, and some of the dirt and wastewater remains in the filter screen assembly. Over time, the dirt and wastewater deteriorates and emits an unpleasant, putrid odor, creating a poor user experience. According to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, the drainage structure 180 includes multiple water collection tanks 11c on the bottom of the tray 1c. If the height of the bottom of the tray 1c remains the same, the slope of each of the divided water collection tanks 11c becomes larger than before, making it easier for the remaining wastewater to flow to the waste suction port at the bottom. The water collection tanks 11c help guide the wastewater 4c downwards by gravity, concentrating and collecting the wastewater 4c at the bottom of the water collection tanks 11c, thereby reducing the difficulty of drainage.

[0053] The drainage structure 180 according to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure includes two water collection tanks 11c. The number of water collection tanks 11c can be set according to actual needs. The water collection tanks 11c have a funnel-shaped structure, including a side wall surrounded by a first plate, a second plate, a third plate, and a fourth plate. The water collection tank 11c further includes a bottom plate, where the first plate and the third plate are arranged opposite each other, and the second plate and the fourth plate are arranged opposite each other. The bottoms of the first plate, the second plate, the third plate, and the fourth plate are connected to the bottom plate, and a water outlet 111c is provided on the bottom plate. The first plate, the second plate, the third plate, and the fourth plate have an inclined rectangular structure. A water outlet 111c is provided at the bottom of each water collection tank 11c. The filth suction pipe 2c includes a plurality of branch pipes 21c, and the branch pipes 21c are connected to the water discharge ports 111c in one-to-one correspondence.

[0054] In some embodiments, the bottom plate is a rectangular plane, and the first plate, the second plate, the third plate, and the fourth plate are downwardly inclined isosceles trapezoidal planes. The first plate and the third plate have the same shape, and the second plate and the fourth plate have the same shape. The length of the base of the first side wall may be 5 to 10 times the length of the base of the second side wall.

[0055] In some embodiments, the first plate, the second plate, the third plate, and the fourth plate are all downwardly inclined planes, the first plate and the third plate are trapezoidal structures arranged opposite each other, the bases of the second plate and the fourth plate are arc-shaped structures, and the bottom plates are arc-shaped surfaces.

[0056] The drainage structure 180 according to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure divides the surface of the tray 1c where dirt and wastewater remain at the bottom of the tray 1c into multiple funnel shapes, increasing the slope of the liquid flow slope, lowering the height of the water absorption surface, and lowering the negative pressure surface, thereby reducing the amount of dirt and wastewater remaining and preventing unpleasant odors from occurring in the cleaning base station 100.

[0057] 11 is a cross-sectional view of a water collection tank 11c according to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 11, the wastewater 4c in the water collection tank 11c is collected by gravity along the first and third plates to the water outlet 111c, and the wastewater 4c can be sucked up by the waste suction pipe 2c connected to the water outlet 111c using a negative pressure suction device, making it easier to suck up the collected wastewater 4c and preventing the wastewater 4c from remaining at the bottom of the tray 1c.

[0058] The waste suction pipe 2c includes a water storage structure 22c and branch pipes 21c. The branch pipes 21c are connected to the water outlets 111c in a one-to-one correspondence. The diameters of the branch pipes 21c may be the same or different. The diameter of the branch pipes 21c may be equal to or smaller than the diameter of the water storage structure 22c. The branch pipes 21c join together and communicate with the water storage structure 22c. The water storage structure 22c may be one or more. The water storage structure 22c includes a first bent portion 221c that is convex upward and a second bent portion 222c that is convex downward. The first bent portion 221c is located between the second bent portion 222c and the branch pipe 21c, and the first bent portion 221c and the second bent portion 222c are connected to form an S-shaped structure.

[0059] 12 and 13 are schematic diagrams illustrating the use of a waste suction pipe 2c according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, when the waste suction pipe 2c is suctioned to the state shown in FIG. 12 under the control of a negative pressure suction device, the liquid level is not sealed, and the suction cannot maintain negative pressure. The state shown in FIG. 12 is the most suitable state for suction. As shown in FIG. 13, when the suction negative pressure cannot be maintained, the liquid level returns to a balanced state due to the action of gravity. The volume of the second bent portion 222c can be used to effectively prevent the wastewater 4c from flowing back into the tray 1c, preventing the wastewater 4c from increasing in the tray 1c and avoiding unpleasant odors.

[0060] 14 is a structural schematic diagram of a cleaning base station 100 according to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 14, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a cleaning base station 100 including a base station body 110 and a drainage structure 180. The base station body 110 includes a storage chamber 3c for storing a cleaning device 200, and the drainage structure 180 is provided at the bottom of the storage chamber 3c1. The drainage structure 180 may include a tray 1c and a waste suction pipe 2c.

[0061] Tray 1c is used to collect wastewater 4c. A filter screen is provided at the tray opening of tray 1c. A plurality of water collection tanks 11c are provided at the bottom of tray 1c. The water collection tanks 11c have slopes for guiding the wastewater to the water outlets 111c of the tray, and each water collection tank 11c has a water outlet 111c at its bottom.

[0062] The waste suction pipe 2c has one end connected to the water outlet 111c and the other end connected to a negative pressure suction device, and is used to suck the wastewater 4c in the tray 1c. The negative pressure suction device is located above the storage chamber 3c1. The end of the waste suction pipe 2c connected to the tray 1c is provided with multiple branch pipes, and the branch pipes 21c are connected to the water outlets 111c in a one-to-one correspondence. The end of the waste suction pipe 2c connected to the negative pressure suction device is provided with one or more water storage structures 22c. The water storage structures 22c include a first bent portion 221c that is upwardly convex and a second bent portion 222c that is downwardly convex. The first bent portion 221c and the second bent portion are connected to form an S-shaped structure.

[0063] During use, after the cleaning device 200 enters the storage chamber 3c, the wastewater 4c in the cleaning device 200 passes through the filter screen into the tray 1c, and the wastewater 4c is collected at the bottom of the water collection tank 11c by the action of gravity. The waste suction pipe 2c sucks the wastewater 4c from the water outlet 111c at the bottom of the water collection tank 11c by the action of the negative pressure suction device, and if the suction cannot maintain the negative pressure, the remaining wastewater 4c in the waste suction pipe 2c will return to the water storage structure 22c by the action of gravity to return to an equilibrium state.

[0064] As shown in Figures 15 and 16, according to one aspect of an embodiment of the present disclosure, a cleaning base station 100 is provided, which includes a base station body 110, a cleaning device 120, and a drying device 130, wherein the base station body 110 is used to accommodate the cleaning device 200, the cleaning device 120 is provided in the base station body 110 and is used to clean the cleaning assembly 210a of the cleaning device 200, and the drying device 130 is provided in the base station body 110 and includes a blowing section 131a, a first outlet 132a, and a second outlet 133a, wherein the blowing section 131a is used to transport a dry airflow to the first outlet 132a and / or the second outlet 133a, the first outlet 132a is used to output the dry airflow to the cleaning assembly 210a, and the second outlet 133a is used to output the dry airflow to the cleaning device 120.

[0065] The cleaning base station 100 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a base station main body 110, a cleaning device 120, and a drying device 130. The cleaning device 120 and the drying device 130 are each installed within the base station main body 110, and the drying device 130 includes an air blower 131a, a first air outlet 132a, and a second air outlet 133a. When the cleaning device 200 is parked at the base station main body 110, the cleaning device 120 cleans the cleaning assembly 210a of the cleaning device 200 to improve the cleanliness of the cleaning assembly 210a. After the cleaning operation is completed, the drying device 130 is activated to dry the cleaning assembly 210a and the cleaning device 120. The air blower 131a delivers dry air to the first air outlet 132a and outputs a portion of the dry air to the cleaning assembly 210a through the first air outlet 132a to dry the wet cleaning assembly 210a.

[0066] The blower 131a delivers the dry airflow to the second outlet 133a and outputs a portion of the dry airflow to the cleaning device 120 through the second outlet 133a to dry any liquid remaining in the cleaning device 120. This quickly dries the wet cleaning assembly 210a and the cleaning device 120, improving drying efficiency and preventing the cleaning assembly 210a and the cleaning device 120 from remaining wet for a long time, which can lead to the growth of bacteria, mold, and unpleasant odors, reducing the cleaning effect in the room and affecting the user's health. This is advantageous for extending the service life of the cleaning assembly 210a, reducing the number of times the user cleans the cleaning device 120, and improving the user experience.

[0067] The cleaning base station 100 is provided with multiple drying modes. In some embodiments, the air blower 131a can simultaneously deliver dry air to the cleaning assembly 210a and the cleaning appliance 120, thereby simultaneously drying the cleaning assembly 210a and the cleaning appliance 120. In other embodiments, the air blower 131a can independently deliver dry air to either the cleaning assembly 210a or the cleaning appliance 120, thereby independently drying the cleaning assembly 210a or the cleaning appliance 120. This allows users to select the mode based on their actual needs, improving applicability. Furthermore, a single air blower 131a can be provided to achieve the desired functionality, eliminating the need for multiple separate drying appliances 130 to dry the cleaning assembly 210a and the cleaning appliance 120. This configuration reduces the number of parts, reduces production costs, simplifies assembly, and is advantageous for a more rational layout space, thereby reducing the overall volume of the cleaning base station 100 and improving the user experience.

[0068] In some embodiments, the cleaning assembly 210a of the cleaning device 200 may include a wet cleaning member, and the cleaning base station 100 may include a reservoir tank for storing cleaning liquid and a cleaning head disposed below the reservoir tank, where the cleaning liquid in the reservoir tank is delivered to the cleaning head and can be used to clean the wet cleaning member. Alternatively, the reservoir tank can spray the cleaning liquid onto the surface of the wet cleaning member, and the cleaning head can evenly apply the cleaning liquid to clean the wet cleaning member.

[0069] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 15 and 16, the cleaning equipment 120 may include a cleaning tank 121a and a filter screen 122a, where the filter screen 122a is provided to cover the drainage area of ​​the cleaning tank 121a, and the second air outlet 133a is used to output dry airflow into the drainage area.

[0070] As can be understood, the cleaning device 120 is provided with a cleaning tank 121a, a filter screen 122a, and a cleaning member for cleaning the cleaning assembly 210a, and the cleaning tank 121a is provided in the base station body 110 and is located below the cleaning member, so that the impurities removed from the cleaning assembly 210a by the cleaning member and the cleaning liquid for cleaning the cleaning assembly 210a can be stored in the cleaning tank 121a, which is further advantageous for facilitating subsequent processing of the impurities and improving the cleanliness of the environment around the cleaning tank 121a. As can be understood, the impurities removed from the cleaning assembly 210a may include dirty water, hair, debris, particulate dust, or other impurities that meet requirements.

[0071] The cleaning tank 121a may be provided with a drainage area, and a filter screen 122a may be provided to cover the drainage area. The drainage area is used to connect to a drain pipe to discharge liquid from the cleaning tank 121a. The liquid discharged from the cleaning tank 121a to the drainage area is filtered by the filter screen 122a. However, since the liquid in the cleaning tank 121a may contain solid impurities, the liquid may be low in purity. If the liquid is discharged directly through the drain pipe, there is a risk of clogging the drain pipe. The filter screen 122a may be provided in the drainage area of ​​the cleaning tank 121a. This allows the liquid discharged from the drainage area to the external environment to be filtered by the filter screen 122a to improve its purity before being discharged through the drain pipe to the external environment. This reduces the risk of clogging the drain pipe and is advantageous in improving the smoothness and efficiency of wastewater discharge from the cleaning tank 121a. The filter screen 122a is detachably attached to the drainage area, and can be removed from the cleaning tank 121a for cleaning and maintenance, which is convenient to operate and advantageous to improve the user's cleaning and maintenance experience.

[0072] As can be seen, although the drainage area can drain most of the liquid in the washing tub 121a, some liquid may still remain in the drainage area. The base station body 110 of the washing base station 100 blocks the drainage area, making it difficult for the liquid to air dry. Liquids are difficult to dry in a humid environment. If the liquid remains wet for a long time, bacteria, mold, and unpleasant odors may grow in the drainage area of ​​the washing tub 121a, affecting the user experience. The blower 131a can deliver dry air to the second outlet 133a, which then discharges the dry air into the drainage area, drying the remaining liquid. This quickly dries the damp drainage area, preventing bacteria, mold, and unpleasant odors from growing in the drainage area and improving the user experience.

[0073] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 15 and 16 , the drying device 130 further includes a heating element 134a for heating the dry airflow delivered by the air blower 131a, and the heating element 134a may be provided in the air blower 131a. The dry airflow delivered by the air blower 131a is heated by the heating element 134a. This increases the temperature of the dry airflow, and the high-temperature dry airflow is discharged from the first air outlet 132a to the wet cleaning assembly 210a. The high-temperature dry airflow is discharged from the second air outlet 133a to the wet filter screen 122a and the drainage area of ​​the cleaning tank 121a, thereby improving drying efficiency.

[0074] The heating element 134a may be an electric heating wire, and is provided at the blowing point of the air blowing section 131a. A control switch connected to the electric heating wire may be provided so as to control the heating temperature of the electric heating wire.

[0075] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 15 and 16, the blower section 131a includes a blower 1311a, an air passage, and an airflow adjustment member 1314a, the base station body 110 includes a base plate 111a for placing the cleaning device 200 thereon, the air passage is connected to the blower 1311a, the heating member 134a is located in the air passage, at least a portion of the air passage is provided on the base plate 111a and communicates with the first air outlet 132a, at least a portion of the air passage is provided on a side wall of the base station body 110 and communicates with the second air outlet 133a, and the airflow adjustment member 1314a is provided in the air passage and is used to adjust the flow rate of the dry air flow in the air passage.

[0076] As can be seen, the blower section 131a includes a blower 1311a, an air passage, and an airflow adjusting member 1314a. The blower 1311a is provided within the base station body 110 and provides wind power to output a dry airflow. The base station body 110 is provided with a base plate 111a, which is located at the bottom of the base station body 110 and is used to mount the cleaning device 200, with the cleaning assembly 210a of the cleaning device 200 facing the base plate 111a. The air passage is connected to the blower 1311a, at least a portion of which is provided within the base plate 111a, and the first air outlet 132a is opened on one side of the base plate 111a where the cleaning device 200 is mounted and communicates with the air passage. At least a part of the air passage is provided in the side wall of the base station main body 110, and the second air outlet 133a is provided on the side of the side wall of the base station main body 110 facing the filter screen 122a and communicates with the air passage. By providing the air outlet in this manner, the dry air flow can be transported to the first air outlet 132a and the second air outlet 133a by the air passage, thereby preventing the dry air flow from dissipating and improving drying efficiency.

[0077] As can be seen, by positioning the heating element 134a in the air passage close to the blower 1311a, both the dry airflows transported to the first outlet 132a and the second outlet 133a are heated, further improving the drying efficiency.

[0078] As can be seen, an airflow adjustment member 1314a is provided in the air passage, and the airflow adjustment member 1314a adjusts the flow rate of the dry airflow in the air passage. The airflow adjustment member 1314a has three operating positions. In some embodiments, when the airflow adjustment member 1314a is in the first operating position, the position of the air passage where the first air outlet 132a is located and the position of the air passage where the second air outlet 133a is located are both in the on state. At this time, the dry airflow generated by the blower 1311a is transported along the air passage to the first air outlet 132a and the second air outlet 133a, thereby simultaneously drying the cleaning assembly 210a and the cleaning equipment 120. In some other embodiments, when the airflow adjustment member 1314a is in the second operating position, the position of the air passage where the first air outlet 132a is located is in the off state and the position of the air passage where the second air outlet 133a is located is in the on state, and at this time, the dry airflow generated by the blower 1311a is transported along the air passage to the second air outlet 133a to independently dry the cleaning appliance 120. In some other embodiments, when the airflow adjustment member 1314a is in the third operating position, the position of the air passage where the first air outlet 132a is located is in the on state and the position of the air passage where the second air outlet 133a is located is in the off state, and at this time, the dry airflow generated by the blower 1311a is transported along the air passage to the first air outlet 132a to independently dry the cleaning assembly 210a. By adjusting the operating position of the airflow adjusting member 1314a according to user needs, drying can be achieved for different sections, improving applicability. Furthermore, only one blower 1311a can simultaneously dry the cleaning assembly 210a and the cleaning equipment 120, or dry the cleaning assembly 210a or the cleaning equipment 120 separately. This simplifies the structure, eliminates the need for a separate thermal drying device, reduces the number of parts, reduces production costs, reduces assembly difficulties, and is advantageous for rational layout space, reducing the overall volume of the cleaning base station 100 and improving the user experience.

[0079] In some embodiments, the position of the first air outlet 132a is closer to the outside than the position of the second air outlet 133a (as shown in FIG. 22 ), and the wet cleaning member of the cleaning device 200 may be determined corresponding to the first air outlet 132a or the second air outlet 133a depending on the position at which the cleaning device 200 enters the cleaning base station 100. When the part of the cleaning device 200 provided with the wet cleaning member enters the base station body 110 first, the wet cleaning member comes close to the second air outlet 133a, and at this time, a dry airflow is discharged from the second air outlet 133a to dry the wet cleaning member. When the part of the cleaning device 200 provided with the wet cleaning member enters the base station body 110 later, the wet cleaning member comes close to the first air outlet 132a, and at this time, a dry airflow is discharged from the first air outlet 132a to dry the wet cleaning member.

[0080] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, the first outlet 132a is located between the blower 1311a and the second outlet 133a.

[0081] As can be seen, by arranging the first air outlet 132a between the blower 1311a and the second air outlet 133a, the dry airflow generated by the blower 1311a is first delivered to the first air outlet 132a to dry the wet cleaning assembly 210a in the cleaning device 200, and then delivered to the second air outlet 133a to dry the water pools in the filter screen 122a and the drainage area of ​​the cleaning tub 121a. This arrangement takes into consideration that when the cleaning device 200 is stopped at the cleaning base station 100, the cleaning device 120 will first clean the cleaning assembly 210a. Therefore, to ensure that the cleaning device 200 can be quickly re-used, it is necessary to prioritize drying of the cleaning assembly 210a, thereby improving drying efficiency. The dirty water generated during cleaning is discharged through the filter screen 122a and the drainage area, and the drying priority here is lower than the drying priority for the cleaning device 200. The user can choose to dry the cleaning device 200 at the same time, or to turn on the cleaning device 200 and dry it after use, which improves applicability.

[0082] In some embodiments, the airflow adjustment member 1314a can include a baffle plate and a drive member connected to the baffle plate for adjusting the coverage area of ​​the baffle plate relative to the air passage.

[0083] As can be seen, the airflow adjustment member 1314a includes a baffle plate and a drive member. The baffle plate is installed within the air passage, and the drive member is connected to the baffle plate, driving the baffle plate to adjust the area the baffle plate covers relative to the air passage. For example, when the cleaning assembly 210a and the cleaning device 120 need to be dried simultaneously, the baffle plate is attached to the inner wall of the air passage to minimize the area it covers relative to the air passage and ensure the flow of dry air within the air passage. When only the cleaning assembly 210a needs to be dried, the drive member drives the baffle plate to swing to a position that completely closes the air passage, closing the portion of the air passage where the second air outlet 133a is located, and allowing dry air to be output only from the first air outlet 132a.

[0084] In a driving method in which a driving member drives the baffle plate, the driving member can drive and rotate the baffle plate, and the baffle plate can be attached to the shape of the air passage, with both ends abutting either side of the air passage and installed vertically within the air passage, and the driving member can adjust the rotation angle of the baffle plate and adjust the coverage area of ​​the baffle plate relative to the air passage.

[0085] The driving member can select a driving motor, the output shaft of which is connected to the baffle plate, and the driving motor drives the baffle plate to change its position and adjust the coverage area of ​​the baffle plate relative to the air passage. The driving member can also select an electromagnet, the baffle plate is connected to the electromagnet, and the position of the baffle plate can be changed by turning the electromagnet on or off to adjust the coverage area of ​​the baffle plate relative to the air passage.

[0086] 15 , the air passage may include a first airflow passage 1312a, the first airflow passage 1312a connected to a blower 1311a, the heating member 134a located between the blower 1311a and the first airflow passage 1312a, at least a portion of the first airflow passage 1312a provided in the substrate 111a and communicating with the first air outlet 132a, and at least a portion of the first airflow passage 1312a provided in a side wall of the base station body 110 and communicating with the second air outlet 133a. A baffle plate may be provided in the first airflow passage 1312a and located between the first air outlet 132a and the second air outlet 133a, and the driving member is used to drive the baffle plate to adjust the flow rate of the dry air delivered to the second air outlet 133a.

[0087] As can be seen, the air passage is provided with a first airflow passage 1312a, which connects the passage corresponding to the first air outlet 132a and the passage corresponding to the second air outlet 133a in series. The dry airflow generated by the blower 1311a first passes through the first air outlet 132a and then the second air outlet 133a. By providing a heating element 134a between the blower 1311a and the first airflow passage 1312a, both the dry airflows delivered to the first air outlet 132a and the second air outlet 133a are heated, thereby improving drying efficiency. Furthermore, a baffle plate is provided within the first airflow passage 1312a, between the first air outlet 132a and the second air outlet 133a. This configuration allows the cleaning base station 100 to have a compartment drying function. When the driving member adjusts the position of the baffle plate so that the passage corresponding to the second outlet 133a is turned on, the dry air generated by the blower 1311a is heated by the heating member 134a and then delivered to the first outlet 132a and the second outlet 133a to simultaneously dry the wet cleaning member, the filter screen 122a, and the drainage area of ​​the cleaning tank 121a. When the driving member adjusts the position of the baffle plate so that the passage corresponding to the second outlet 133a is turned off, the dry air generated by the blower 1311a is heated by the heating member 134a and then delivered only to the first outlet 132a to dry the wet cleaning member.

[0088] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 16 , the air passage may further include a second air flow passage 1313a connected to the blower 1311a, the heating element 134a is located in the second air flow passage 1313a, the second air flow passage 1313a is formed with a first branch passage 13131a and a second branch passage 13132a, the first branch passage 13131a is provided on the substrate 111a and can communicate with the first air outlet 132a, and at least a part of the second branch passage 13132a is The baffle plate is provided on the substrate 111a, and at least a portion of the second branch path 13132a is provided on the side wall of the base station main body 110 and communicates with the second air outlet 133a, the baffle plate is provided in the second air flow passage 1313a and is located at the connection point between the first branch path 13131a and the second branch path 13132a, and the driving member is used to drive the baffle plate to adjust the flow rate of the dry air flow transported into the first branch path 13131a and / or the second branch path 13132a.

[0089] As can be seen, the air passage is provided with a second airflow passage 1313a, and a first branched passage 13131a and a second branched passage 13132a are formed in the second airflow passage 1313a. The first branched passage 13131a is provided on the substrate 111a and communicates with the first air outlet 132a. Some of the second branched passages 13132a can be provided on the substrate 111a, and other parts of the second branched passages 13132a can be provided on the side wall of the base station main body 110 and communicate with the second air outlet 133a so that the first air outlet 132a and the second air outlet 133a are arranged in parallel. The heating element 134a can be located in the second airflow passage 1313a, and the dry airflow generated by the blower 1311a is first heated by the heating element 134a, then flows into the first branch passage 13131a and the second branch passage 13132a, respectively, and is then discharged from the first air outlet 132a and the second air outlet 133a, respectively. A baffle plate is also provided in the second airflow passage 1313a, at the junction of the first branch passage 13131a and the second branch passage 13132a. This arrangement allows the cleaning base station 100 to have a section drying function.

[0090] In some embodiments, when the driving member adjusts the position of the baffle plate so that both the first branch path 13131a and the second branch path 13132a are turned on, the dry air generated by the blower 1311a is heated by the heating member 134a and then transported to the first branch path 13131a and the second branch path 13132a, respectively, and then discharged from the first outlet 132a and the second outlet 133a, respectively, to simultaneously dry the wet cleaning member, the filter screen 122a, and the drainage area of ​​the cleaning tank 121a. When the driving member adjusts the position of the baffle plate so that the first branch path 13131a is turned on and the second branch path 13132a is turned off, the dry air generated by the blower 1311a is heated by the heating member 134a and then transported only into the first branch path 13131a, and then discharged from the first outlet 132a, to dry the wet cleaning member. When the driving member can turn off the first branch path 13131a and turn on the second branch path 13132a by adjusting the position of the baffle plate, the dry air generated by the blower 1311a is transported only into the second branch path 13132a after being heated by the heating member 134a and discharged from the second outlet 133a, drying the filter screen 122a and the drainage area of ​​the cleaning tank 121a and improving applicability.

[0091] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 15 and 16, multiple first air outlets 132a are provided, and the multiple first air outlets 132a are arranged at intervals along a portion of the air passage located on the substrate 111a, so that the multiple first air outlets 132a are arranged at intervals along the portion of the air passage and the multiple first air outlets 132a act on the wet cleaning member simultaneously, increasing the drying area for the wet cleaning member and further improving the drying efficiency.

[0092] 15 and 16, the second air outlet 133a has a tapered portion 1331a with a smaller diameter at one end toward the drainage area. The tapered portion 1331a guides the dry airflow output from the second air outlet 133a and guides the dry airflow toward the filter screen 122a and the drainage area of ​​the cleaning tank 121a. The tapered portion 1331a shortens the distance between the second air outlet 133a and the filter screen 122a, ensuring a good drying effect and allowing for more flexibility in determining the position of the second air outlet 133a on the sidewall of the base station body 110.

[0093] In some embodiments, the cleaning base station 100 may further include a temperature detection element for detecting the temperature of the heating element 134a or the airflow heated by the heating element 134a, and the heating element 134a can adjust the heating temperature based on the detection result of the temperature detection element.

[0094] A temperature detecting element may be provided on the heating element 134a to detect the current temperature of the heating element 134a. For example, if the current temperature of the heating element 134a is not within a first set temperature range, the heating element 134a adjusts the heating temperature based on the temperature detected by the temperature detecting element so that the temperature of the heating element 134a is within the first set temperature range. In some other embodiments, a temperature detecting element may be provided on the first air outlet 132a to detect the temperature of the dry airflow output from the first air outlet 132a. For example, if the current temperature of the dry airflow from the first air outlet 132a is not within a second set temperature range, the heating element 134a adjusts the heating temperature based on the temperature detected by the temperature detecting element so that the temperature of the heating element 134a is within the second set temperature range. In some other embodiments, a temperature detecting element may be provided on the second air outlet 133a to detect the temperature of the dry airflow output from the second air outlet 133a. For example, if the temperature of the current dry air flow from the second air outlet 133a is not within the third set temperature range, the heating element 134a adjusts the heating temperature based on the temperature detected by the temperature detection element so that the temperature of the heating element 134a is within the third set temperature range.

[0095] As shown in Figures 17 and 18, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a fluid tank 190 for use in a cleaning base station 100 that houses a cleaning device 200, the fluid tank 190 including a fluid tank body 100d and a top cover 200d, the fluid tank body 100d including an opening and a storage chamber communicating with the opening, the storage chamber for storing a fluid, and the top cover 200d for moving relative to the fluid tank body 100d to selectively cover the opening.

[0096] It includes at least one pair of a female buckle 300d and a striker 400d, with the female buckle 300d being provided on one of the fluid tank body 100d and the top cover 200d, and the striker 400d being provided on the other, and when the top cover 200d covers the opening, the striker 400d engages with the female buckle 300d to secure the top cover 200.

[0097] The fluid tank 190 may contain a variety of fluids. For example, the storage chamber of the fluid tank body 100d may store fresh water or collect dirty water. The opening may be located on any one or more sides of the fluid tank body 100d. When the top cover 200d covers the opening, the top cover 200d covers the opening, abuts against the edge of the opening, or fits into each other, thereby enclosing the storage space together with the storage chamber and restricting the fresh water or dirty water into the storage chamber. In some embodiments, the storage space is an enclosed space, and the air pressure in the enclosed space can be adjusted using an air pump or the like to discharge fresh water to clean the cleaning device 200 or siphon dirty water into the enclosed space to collect the dirty water. The shapes of the fluid tank body 100d and the top cover 200d may be various, and may be regular or irregular in shape. For ease of explanation, the structure of the fluid tank body 100d and the top cover 200d will be taken as an example below. The fluid tank body 100d is approximately a rectangular parallelepiped, with an opening located at the top end of the fluid tank body 100d and surrounded by the top edge of the side wall. The top cover 200d is an approximately cubic top cover, and the circumferential outer contour of the top cover 200d is located on the same circumferential plane as the outer contour near the opening of the circumferential side wall of the fluid tank body 100d.

[0098] The female buckle 300d and the striker 400d are provided in a corresponding pair, and the striker 400d may be provided on the fluid tank body 100 and the female buckle 300d on the top cover 200d, or the striker 400d may be provided on the top cover 200d and the female buckle 300d on the fluid tank body 100d. The installation positions of the female buckle 300d and the striker 400d may vary, and as can be understood, regardless of the installation positions, the female buckle 300d and the striker 400d are provided opposite each other to achieve mutual engagement.

[0099] As described above, in the embodiment in which the top cover 200d is rotatably connected to the fluid tank body 100d via the first side, the top cover 200d is provided with a female buckle 300d or a striker 400d on at least one side other than the first side, and the female buckle 300d and the striker 400d may be only a pair, for example, the female buckle 300d and the striker 400d are located on the opposite side from the connection side and cooperate with the rotatable connection to secure the top cover 200d, or the female buckle 300d and the striker 400d may be provided on both sides or three sides other than the connection side to secure the top cover 200d in multiple directions.

[0100] Also, for example, in an embodiment in which the top cover 200d can be completely detached from the fluid tank body 100d, the female buckles 300d and the strikers 400d may be two or more pairs, and the female buckles 300d or the strikers 400d may be located on at least both sides of the top cover 200d that are spaced apart from each other to restrict the position of the top cover 200d on multiple sides of the top cover 200d. Hereinafter, an example will be given in which the top cover 200d is rotatably connected to the tank body 100d via a first side, and the striker 400d is located on the other side of the top cover 200d that is spaced apart from the connected side. In other embodiments, a connecting plate is provided on each of the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d, and the rotating shaft 800d is movably inserted through the connecting plate to rotatably connect the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d.

[0101] The fluid tank 180, cleaning base station 100, and cleaning system 10 provided in the present disclosure are provided with a female buckle 300d and a striker 400d, which allow the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d to engage with each other when installed, ensuring that the position of the top cover 200d is stable and does not move, and ensuring the tightness of the fluid tank 190. In the related art, the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d are connected by having the top cover 200d ride up onto the edge of the opening of the fluid tank body 100d or by having the top cover 200d partially fitted into the opening of the fluid tank body 100d, but there is no fixing device between the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d, which makes it easy for the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d to flutter, affecting the stability of the cover of the top cover 200d and the tightness of the fluid tank 190.

[0102] In one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d are provided with corresponding female buckles 300d and strikers 400d. Under the condition that the top cover 200d is covered by the fluid tank body 100d, the strikers 400d and the female buckles 300d interact through engagement to fix the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 400d, ensuring that the relative positions of the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d do not move during use, and ensuring effective coverage of the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d.

[0103] For ease of explanation, the following will take as an example a case where the female buckle 300d is provided on the fluid tank body 100d and the striker 400d is provided on the top cover 200d. There are various ways for the female buckle 300d and the striker 400d to engage with each other, for example, the striker 400d can be rotatable relative to the top cover 200d, and with the top cover 200d covering the fluid tank body 100d, the striker 400d can be rotated toward the female buckle 300d and manually pressed against the female buckle 300d to engage the female buckle 300d with the striker 400d.

[0104] Alternatively, in some other embodiments, the striker 400d includes a striker resilient arm 410d and a resilient arm fastener 420dd. A first end of the striker resilient arm 410d is connected to the top cover 200d or the fluid tank body 100d, and the resilient arm fastener 420d is provided at a second end of the striker resilient arm 410d. The second end of the striker resilient arm 410d can be repelled so that when the top cover 200d moves toward the opening, the resilient arm fastener 420d interacts with the female buckle 300d and moves, and when the top cover 200d covers the opening, the resilient arm fastener 420d engages with the female buckle 300d to secure the top cover 200d.

[0105] The striker resilient arm 410d may have an elongated structure and may have a rectangular or circular cross section. A first end of the striker resilient arm 410d is connected to the top cover 200d, and a second end of the striker resilient arm 410d extends downward or toward the female buckle 300d. The striker resilient arm 410d has a certain flexibility, allowing the second end of the striker resilient arm 410d to bounce. "Bounce" refers to the second end of the striker resilient arm 410d being able to move under the action of an external force and automatically returning to its natural state when the external force is released. To achieve engagement between the resilient arm fastener 420d and the female buckle 300d, at least a portion of the female buckle 300d is located within the plane of movement of the resilient arm fastener 420d toward the female buckle 300d when the striker resilient arm 410d is in its natural state.

[0106] During the process of covering the top cover 200d with the fluid tank body 100d, the second end of the striker elastic arm 410d gradually approaches the female buckle 300, and the elastic arm fastener 420d interacts with the top end of the female buckle 300d, causing the second end of the striker elastic arm 410d to move away from the female buckle 300d, and the elastic arm fastener 420d passes over the top end of the female buckle 300d and slides downward along the side wall of the female buckle 300d, thereby fastening the elastic arm fastener When the elastic arm fastener 420d slides completely to the bottom end of the female buckle 300d, the force acting on the second end of the striker elastic arm 410d by the female buckle 300d is released, the striker elastic arm 410d returns to its natural state, and the elastic arm fastener 420d moves toward the side approaching the female buckle 300d, creating an overlapping area between the elastic arm fastener 420d and the female buckle 300d. The abutment of the overlapping area realizes engagement and regulates the position of the top cover 200d.

[0107] When it is necessary to separate the top cover 200d from the fluid tank body 100d, the second end of the striker resilient arm 410d is manually pressed to separate the resilient arm fastener 420d from the female buckle 300d until there is no overlap between the resilient arm fastener 420d and the female buckle 300d, and then the top cover 200 is pulled upward. After the resilient arm fastener 420d passes the bottom end of the female buckle 300d, the top cover 200 is continued to be pulled upward, and the resilient arm fastener 420d and the female buckle 300d are separated. In the process of covering the top cover 200d with the fluid tank body 100d, it is only necessary to align the top cover 200d with the fluid tank body 100d and press the top cover 200d to a position covering the opening, and the resilient arm fastener 420d can automatically engage with the female buckle 300d due to the bounding action of the striker resilient arm 410d, making it easy to cover the top cover 200d.

[0108] Compared to an embodiment in which the striker 400d and the top cover 200d are rotatably connected, the striker 400d and the top cover 200d do not need to be connected via a rotational shaft, which simplifies the structure of the striker 400d, reduces processing costs, and makes them less likely to deform. The striker 400d and the top cover 200d may be integrally molded, which facilitates processing and prevents flapping over long periods of use. The striker resilient arm 410d and the top cover 200d may be made of a material that is both rigid and flexible, such as plastic, which ensures structural stability and allows the striker resilient arm 410d to bounce.

[0109] 19 and 20, the outer wall of the resilient arm fastener 420d may include a guide slope 421d and an enclosing surface 422d, the guide slope 421d being connected to the enclosing surface 422d so as to surround the resilient arm fastener 420d, the guide slope 421d being farther away from the first end of the resilient arm 410d than the enclosing surface 422d, and the guide slope 421d being farther away from the resilient arm 410d in a direction from the second end to the first end of the resilient arm 410d. The guide slope 421d is used to interact with the female buckle 300d to strike the second end of the striker resilient arm 410d in a direction opposite to the engagement direction of the resilient arm fastener 420d when the top cover 200d moves toward the opening.

[0110] Due to the interaction between the guide slope 421d and the female buckle 300d, when the top cover 200d is pressed against the fluid tank body 100d, the female buckle 300d can apply a force to the guide slope 421d or the second end of the striker elastic arm 410d in a direction opposite to the engagement direction, and the second end of the striker elastic arm 410d moves the elastic arm fastener 420d to bound toward the side away from the female buckle 300d, allowing the elastic arm fastener 420d to slide from one end of the female buckle 300d close to the top cover 200d to the side of the female buckle 300d in a moving and retracting manner, and then move to one end of the female buckle 300d away from the top cover 200d, and by bounding, can engage with the female buckle 300d. By providing the guide slope 421d, automatic engagement of the striker 400d can be achieved simply by pressing the top cover 200d, and there is no need to manually move the striker 400d in the process of covering the top cover 200d, making it easier to cover the top cover 200d.

[0111] 19 and 20, the surrounding surface 422d may include a side surrounding surface 4221d and an engagement surface 4222d, and the guide inclined surface 421d, the side surrounding surface 4221d, and the engagement surface 4222d are connected in order to surround the elastic arm fastener 420dd. The engagement surface 4222d fits against an end surface of the female buckle 300d at one end away from the top cover 200d, and is used to abut against the end surface of the female buckle 300d to achieve engagement.

[0112] In some embodiments, the engagement direction of the striker 400d is different from or perpendicular to the tolerance direction corresponding to the striker 400d, which is the vertical direction of a cross section at the connection point between the fluid tank body 100d or the top cover 200d and the striker 400d.

[0113] The engagement direction of the striker 400d refers to the extension direction of the overlapping area when the striker 400d and the female buckle 300d are engaged, and in an embodiment in which the striker 400d includes a resilient arm fastener 420d, refers to the extension direction of the overlapping area when the resilient arm fastener 420d and the female buckle 300 are engaged, or the extension direction in which the resilient arm fastener 420d protrudes from the striker resilient arm 410d. As shown in Figure 17, the engagement direction is the X direction in the figure. If an error occurs in the processing of the fluid tank body 100d or the top lid 200, a misalignment occurs between the side wall of the fluid tank body 100d and the side wall of the top lid 200d, resulting in, for example, the lid 200d becoming larger than the top lid 200d in its ideal state, and the side wall of the top lid 200d exceeding the side wall of the fluid tank body 100d.Such a misalignment appears in a direction perpendicular to the cross section of the side wall of the fluid tank body 100d or the side wall of the top lid 200d, and the direction in which the misalignment appears can be called the tolerance direction.

[0114] 18, the tolerance direction of the top cover 200d in the side wall where the striker 400d is provided is the Y direction in the figure. Because the engagement direction is perpendicular to the tolerance direction corresponding to the striker 400d, even if a misalignment occurs between the top cover 200d and the side wall of the fluid tank body 100d, it is possible to ensure that the elastic arm fastener 420d and the female buckle 300d can still effectively engage with each other. For example, when the engagement direction is perpendicular to the tolerance direction corresponding to the striker 400d, a misalignment of the side wall in the tolerance direction does not affect the relative position of the elastic arm fastener 420d and the female buckle 300d in the engagement direction. That is, it does not affect the area of ​​the overlapping region between the elastic arm fastener 420d and the female buckle 300d. Therefore, even if a processing error occurs in the fluid tank body 100d or the top cover 200d, effective engagement can still be achieved, and it is possible to avoid loss of engagement due to positional fluttering between the elastic arm fastener 420d and the female buckle 300d in the engagement direction.

[0115] In order to further ensure positional regulation in the engagement direction and ensure that there is a sufficient overlapping area when the striker 400d and the female buckle 300d engage with each other, the top cover 200d may be provided with a first positional regulation member 500d, and the fluid tank body 100d may be provided with a second positional regulation member 600d, which interacts with the second positional regulation member 600d to regulate the position of the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d in the engagement direction of the elastic arm fastener 420d.

[0116] On the one hand, when the top cover 200d approaches the fluid tank body 100d, the first position regulating member 500d approaches the second position regulating member 600d and interacts with the second position regulating member 600d before the top cover 200d is completely covered, thereby pre-regulating the engagement between the striker 400d and the female buckle 300d and ensuring that the striker 400d can smoothly engage with the female buckle 300d; on the other hand, after the top cover 200d covers, the first position regulating member 500d and the second position regulating member 600d continue to act, preventing the engagement from being lost due to positional fluttering between the striker 400d and the female buckle 300d when the fluid tank vibrates or tilts, and preventing the top cover 200d from separating from the fluid tank body 100d.

[0117] The first and second position restriction members 500d and 600d may have various structures as long as they can restrict the positions in the engagement direction. For example, one of the first and second position restriction members 500d and 600d may be a position restriction post, and the other may include a first and second position restriction plate, which are spaced apart in the engagement direction of the elastic arm fastener 420dd, and the position restriction post is fitted between the first and second position restriction plates and abuts against them to restrict the positions of the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d.

[0118] 16, the first position restriction member 500d may be a position restriction post or may be a rod-shaped structure with a square cross section, and the second position restriction member 600d is two position restriction plates that are spaced apart in the engagement direction and are parallel to each other. As the top cover 200d moves toward the fluid tank body 100d, the position restriction post is gradually inserted between the first position restriction plate and the second position restriction plate and abuts against the first position restriction plate and the second position restriction plate, and the position of the striker 400d in the engagement direction is restricted by the clamping between the first position restriction plate and the second position restriction plate.

[0119] In some embodiments, the edges of the first and second position restriction plates may be provided with guide slopes, which interact with the position restriction posts to prevent the position restriction posts from abutting against the top end surfaces of the first or second position restriction plates before guiding the position restriction posts into the first and second position restriction plates, and to ensure that the position restriction posts are smoothly fitted between the first and second position restriction plates.

[0120] In some embodiments, the first position limiting member 500d is provided on the striker 400d, thereby ensuring a more stable relative position between the first position limiting member 500d and the striker 400d. For example, when the fluid tank thermally expands, contracts, or deforms, the relative position between the first position limiting member 500d and the striker 400d does not flutter due to changes in the shape of the side wall of the fluid tank. The first position limiting member 500d can still ensure the engagement amount of the striker 400d by interacting with the second position limiting member 600d. In some other embodiments, the second position limiting member 600d may be provided on the female buckle 300d, ensuring a stable relative position between the second position limiting member 600d and the female buckle 300d.

[0121] In order to further ensure effective engagement, avoid loss of engagement due to flapping of the top cover 200d, and avoid disengagement due to permanent deformation of a single striker 400d or a single striker elastic arm 410d, in one embodiment, the number of strikers 400d is two, the two strikers 400d are provided on the same side of the top cover 200d or the fluid tank body 100d, the two strikers 400d are respectively used to engage with the female buckle 300d, and the engagement directions of the two strikers 400d are opposite.

[0122] The engagement in opposite directions realizes mutual positional restriction in the engagement direction and ensures the effectiveness of the engagement. The striker 400d may be provided on the top cover 200. In an embodiment in which a first side of the top cover 200d is rotatably connected to the fluid tank body 100d, two strikers 400d are provided on the other side opposite to the first side of the top cover 200d, and the engagement directions of the two strikers 400d are both perpendicular to the tolerance direction corresponding to the striker 400d and are opposite in direction, thereby realizing engagement in two directions.

[0123] 16 and 17, the striker 400d may include two striker resilient arms 410d, two resilient arm fasteners 420d, and a connection block 430d, where the connection block 430d is connected to the top cover 200d or the fluid tank body 100, the two striker resilient arms 410d are spaced apart and both are connected to the connection block 430d, and the two resilient arm fasteners 420dd are respectively provided on the two striker resilient arms 410d. The engagement directions of the two resilient arm fasteners 420d are opposite to each other.

[0124] The connecting block 430d has a rectangular parallelepiped shape and is connected to the top cover 200d. The two striker resilient arms 410d are connected to the connecting block 430d on the side closer to the fluid tank body 100d. A gap is provided between the two striker resilient arms 410d and the top cover 200d to ensure flexibility of the striker resilient arms 410d in the direction toward and away from the top cover 200d. The engaging directions of the two resilient arm fasteners 420d are opposite to each other and are both perpendicular to the tolerance direction corresponding to the striker 400d. This allows the resilient arm fasteners 420d to restrict their positions relative to each other in the engaging direction and also prevents permanent deformation of one of the striker resilient arms 410d from preventing the entire top cover 200d from engaging.

[0125] In an embodiment in which the fluid tank 190 includes a first position regulating member 500d and a second position regulating member 600d, a position regulating post is connected to the connection block 430d and is arranged between the two striker elastic arms 410d, thereby making the position regulation of the first position regulating member 500d more accurate, and the second position regulating member 600d is arranged between the female buckle 300d and the opening of the fluid tank body 100d.

[0126] The two elastic arm fasteners 420d can be located on opposite sides of the two striker elastic arms 410d, respectively, and the two elastic arm fasteners 420d can face each other and share one female buckle 300. Alternatively, the two elastic arm fasteners 420d can be located on opposite sides of the two striker elastic arms 410d, respectively, and the female buckle 300d can include two independent sub-female buckles, and the two elastic arm fasteners 420dd can correspond to one sub-female buckle, respectively. The sub-female buckles can be rectangular parallelepipeds, and the two sub-female buckles can be spaced apart in the engagement direction and correspond to the two elastic arm fasteners 420d, respectively. Alternatively, in one embodiment, the female buckle 300d includes an insertion opening that penetrates the female buckle 300 in the direction toward and away from the opening of the fluid tank body 100d and allows the striker elastic arm 410d to pass through.

[0127] The striker resilient arm 410d passes through the insertion opening when the top cover 200d covers the opening, and the resilient arm fastener 420d abuts against the bottom end face of the insertion opening that faces away from the opening of the fluid tank body 100d and abuts against the outside of the bottom end opening of the insertion opening on both sides facing away from each other, so that the striker resilient arm 410d can abut against both opposing sides of the inner wall of the insertion opening. The female buckle 300d with an insertion opening has a more stable structure and is less likely to deform than two separate sub-female buckles, and can avoid the end faces of the two sub-female buckles from being unable to smoothly engage with each other due to the durable contact and separation between them.

[0128] In some embodiments, the fluid tank 190 further includes a sealing ring 700d, which is connected to at least one of the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d, and when the top cover 200d covers the opening, the sealing ring 700d is used to seal the connection position between the top cover 200d and the fluid tank body 100d.

[0129] The top cover 200d may be provided with a mounting groove that surrounds the opening edge of the fluid tank body 100d, and the seal ring 700d is fitted into the mounting groove and slightly protrudes from the opening of the mounting groove. When the top cover 200 covers the opening, the seal ring 700d is pressed against the opening edge to seal the storage chamber.

[0130] In another embodiment, the present disclosure further provides a cleaning base station comprising a fluid tank 190 according to any one of the preceding claims and a cleaning base station body 110, wherein the fluid tank 190 is provided in the cleaning base station body 110.

[0132] In yet another embodiment, the present disclosure further provides a cleaning system 10 including a cleaning base station 100 and a cleaning appliance 200. The cleaning appliance 200 is selectively parked at the cleaning base station 100.

[0133] The cleaning base station 100 includes a parking space for parking the cleaning device 200, which may be a robot that integrates suction cleaning and wet mopping. The cleaning device 200 moves independently to perform cleaning tasks and selectively returns to the parking space at an appropriate time to perform maintenance tasks, such as mopping. In one embodiment, a cleaning space is provided at the bottom of the parking space, and a movable brush is located within the cleaning space. A fluid tank is used to provide cleaning water to the cleaning space, the brush, and the mop, and the fluid tank 190 can also store dirty water used to wash the mop.
