[0069] It is necessary to explain that, as long as they do not contradict each other, the embodiments and technical features of the present application can be combined with each other, and the detailed descriptions in specific embodiments are understood as explanatory interpretations of the present application and are not considered inappropriate limitations of the present application.

[0070] The present application will be described in further detail below, combining drawings and specific embodiments. The terms “first / second” used in the embodiments of the present application are for distinguishing similar objects and do not imply a specific order of objects. To ensure that this is understood, “first / second” can be replaced with specific order or sequence, allowing the objects to be implemented in an order other than that shown or described, whenever possible. In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise specifically limited, “multiple” means at least two, for example, two, three, etc.

[0071] An embodiment of the present invention provides a cleaning base station A, referring to Figures 1 to 7, which comprises a storage space B1, a charging terminal B2, and a base station pedestal 1. The cleaning base station A has a storage space B1 on which a cleaning device B can be stationed, and the cleaning base station A can be used to clean the cleaning device B, for example, cleaning steps such as dust removal, air drying, and cloth washing. To make it clear, the cleaning device B is also called a cleaning robot in other embodiments.

[0072] Referring to Figures 13 to 15, the cleaning base station A is provided with a charging terminal B2 capable of charging the cleaning device B. The charging terminal B2 is located within the storage space B1. When the cleaning device B returns to the cleaning base station A and stays in the storage space B1, the cleaning device B is electrically connected to the charging terminal B2 and charged.

[0073] The base station base 1 is located in the storage space B1 and has a cleaning groove 11, which is used to clean the cleaning device B. To make it clear, the base station base 1 is also referred to as the base station body or part of the base station body in other embodiments. Exemplarily, the base station base 1 has a water outlet 1d formed thereon, which is located in the bottom wall of the cleaning groove 11 and is configured to be used to discharge the wastewater in the cleaning groove 11.

[0074] Cleaning device B primarily performs dust collection and mopping by walking on the floor. When performing dust collection, cleaning device B uses a fan to suck up debris from the floor and collects it in a dust collection box. After a certain period of operation, the debris in the dust collection box must be emptied and disposed of. Mopping primarily involves using cleaning components to clean the floor. After a certain period of operation, the cleaning components become dirty and need to be cleaned. Cleaning base station A is provided to address the issues of waste disposal in the dust collection box and cleaning of the cleaning components. Cleaning base station A sucks up and collects the debris, so the user only needs to periodically dispose of the debris in cleaning base station A. Cleaning base station A also enables water supply cleaning of the cleaning components and collects the wastewater after cleaning, so the user only needs to periodically dispose of the wastewater in cleaning base station A.

[0075] Cleaning base station A can be used to house cleaning device B, which performs dust collection and / or mopping of the floor surface by walking on it, sucking up the debris from the floor surface into the dust collection chamber within cleaning device B, and wiping the floor surface using the cleaning components on cleaning device B, thereby achieving floor cleaning. Cleaning base station A may be used to collect the debris collected in the dust collection chamber of cleaning device B, or it may be used to wash the cleaning components of cleaning device B.

[0076] In the embodiment of the present invention, after the cleaning base station A and cleaning device B enter the cleaning groove 11, the cleaning base station A can clean the cleaning device B, thereby thoroughly cleaning the components for cleaning the floor surface to be cleaned within the cleaning device B and improving the user experience.

[0077] In related technologies, cleaning devices clean the floor surface to be cleaned, then enter a cleaning base station to perform further cleaning. This involves cleaning dust and foreign matter attached to the cloth into a cleaning channel and mixing it with wastewater. Large particles of dust and foreign matter cannot be discharged through the pipe that sucks up the wastewater and remain in the cleaning channel. When the amount of dust and foreign matter remaining in the cleaning channel reaches a certain level, it can block the outlet that sucks up the wastewater, resulting in the wastewater not being properly discharged from the cleaning channel.

[0078] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 7, the cleaning base station A further comprises a collection assembly and a suction member. The collection assembly is provided on the base station base 1, and a first air passage 3 is formed in the collection assembly. The suction member is provided on the base station base 1, and the suction member can suction the cleaning groove 11 through the first air passage 3. For ease of understanding, the first air passage 3 may also be called a connecting passage in other embodiments.

[0079] For example, the suction component is a suction fan.

[0080] In this embodiment, the cleaning base station A has a collection assembly, a first air passage 3 is formed in the collection assembly, and a suction member can suck the cleaning groove 11 through the first air passage 3. During the cleaning process of the cleaning base station A, dust and foreign matter in the cleaning device B are transferred to the cleaning groove 11, and the suction member can suck them through the first air passage 3, so that dust and foreign matter remaining in the cleaning groove 11 can be sucked and removed, mitigating the situation where dust and foreign matter remain in the cleaning groove 11. This embodiment of the present application can effectively solve the clogging situation that may occur in the cleaning base station A.

[0081] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 1, a second air passage 2 is formed in the cleaning base station A, and a suction member can suck up dust from the dust collection chamber of the cleaning device B through the second air passage 2, and the first air passage 3 can communicate with the second air passage 2. To make it clear, the second air passage 2 may also be called a dust collection passage in other embodiments.

[0082] For example, the dust collection chamber is formed in the dust collection cup of cleaning device B.

[0083] In this embodiment, a second air passage 2 is formed in the cleaning base station A, and the first air passage 3 can communicate with the second air passage 2. When the first air passage 3 communicates with the second air passage 2, the suction member can suck up dust from the cleaning groove 11 and the dust collection chamber in the cleaning device B via the first air passage 3 and the second air passage 2. Since the first air passage 3 and the second air passage 2 can share one suction member, dust collection in the dust collection chamber of the cleaning device B is achieved, and the base station mechanism is simplified.

[0084] To ensure understanding, the embodiments of the present application are not limited to the selectable communication between the first air passage 3 and the second air passage 2. In one embodiment, there are two suction members, each communicating with the first air passage 3 and the second air passage 2, respectively.

[0085] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 2 and 3, the collection assembly has a first state and a second state. When the collection assembly is in the first state, the first air passage 3 is in communication with the second air passage 2. When the collection assembly is in the second state, the first air passage 3 is blocked from the second air passage 2.

[0086] In this embodiment, the collection assembly has a first state and a second state. When the collection assembly is in the second state, the first air passage 3 is blocked from the second air passage 2. When the first air passage 3 and the second air passage 2 are blocked, the suction member draws a large amount of airflow into the dust collection chamber of the cleaning device B via the second air passage 2, thereby increasing the dust collection efficiency of the cleaning base station A.

[0087] To ensure understanding, the present application is not limited to the collection assembly having a first state and a second state, in which case the collection assembly is in the second state, the first air passage 3 is blocked from the second air passage 2. In one embodiment, the first air passage 3 and the second air passage 2 remain in communication.

[0088] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 4, the collection assembly comprises a drive member 20, a mounting base 210, and a first switching member 220, the mounting base 210 being provided on a base station base 1, a cavity 21b formed in the mounting base 210, the cavity 21b communicating with a second air passage 2, the first switching member 220 being movably provided on the mounting base 210, the first air passage 3 being formed in the first switching member 220, the drive member 20 being provided on the base station base 1, the first switching member 220 and the drive member 20 being drive-connected, the drive member 20 driving the movement of the first switching member 220 so that the collection assembly switches between a first state and a second state.

[0089] In this embodiment, the first switching member 220 is movable under the action of the drive member 20, thereby switching the collection assembly between a first state and a second state. The degree of automation in the switching process is high, eliminating the need for the user to manually switch, thus improving the user experience.

[0090] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 2 and 3, the first switching member 220 is reciprocally movable along a first direction under the action of the drive member 20, the first direction is arranged to intersect in the vertical direction, and the first switching member 220 has a first opening 22a and a second opening 22b on both sides along the first direction, and when the first switching member 220 is in the first state, the first air passage 3 is sequentially connected to the second air passage 2 via the first opening 22a, the second opening 22b and the cavity 21b.

[0091] For illustrative purposes, referring to Figure 4, the drive member 20 includes a motor 200 and a drive frame 201, the motor 200 having gears, the drive frame 201 meshing with the motor 200, the drive frame 201 being connected to a first switching member 220, and the first switching member 220 moving in a first direction by reciprocating under the driving action of the motor 200.

[0092] For example, referring to Figure 2, when the collection assembly is in the second state, the second opening 22b of the first switching member 220 abuts against the side wall of the mounting seat 210, thereby blocking the first air passage 3 and the second air passage 2.

[0093] In this embodiment, the first switching member 220 moves along a first direction under the action of the drive member 20, thereby switching the collection assembly between a first state and a second state. When the movement process of the first switching member 220 is stable and the collection assembly is in the second state, the first switching member 220 can effectively block the first air passage 3 and the second air passage 2.

[0094] To ensure understanding, embodiments of the present application are not limited to the first switching member 220 reciprocating along a first direction under the action of the drive member 20. In one embodiment, the collection assembly further comprises a third switching member, the third switching member rotatably connected to the drive member 20, the third switching member positioned between the first opening 22a and the second opening 22b, and the third switching member rotatably under the action of the drive member 20, thereby controlling the communication and blocking of the first opening 22a and the second opening 22b.

[0095] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 6 and 7, the base station further comprises a switching assembly 30, which is mounted on a base station base 1, and the base station base 1 has a third opening 1c that communicates with a second air passage 2, the third opening 1c is used to abut a cleaning device B and suck the dust collection chamber, the switching assembly 30 is at least partially located within the second air passage 2 to conduct or block the second air passage 2, and the third opening 1c is conducted or blocked to the first air passage 3 via the switching assembly 30.

[0096] In this embodiment, the switching assembly 30 is located at least partially within the second air passage 2, enabling or blocking the second air passage 2, while the third opening 1c is connected to or blocked from the first air passage 3 via the switching assembly 30. When the suction member needs to suction the cleaning groove 11 through the first air passage 3, the switching assembly 30 can block the third opening 1c from the first air passage 3, allowing more airflow generated by the suction member to act on the first air passage 3, thereby improving the suction efficiency of the cleaning groove 11 by the first air passage 3.

[0097] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 6 and 7, the switching assembly 30 comprises a trigger member 50, a second switching member 40, and a locking member 60. The trigger member 50 is used to contact or disconnect from the cleaning device B, and the trigger member 50 is movably mounted on the base station base 1. The second switching member 40 is used to conduct or block the second air passage 2, and the second switching member 40 is rotatably mounted on the base station base 1, and the second switching member 40 is rotatable relative to the base station base 1, and is at least partially located within the second air passage 2. The locking member 60 is used to lock or unlock the second switching member 40, which is mounted on the base station base 1. As the cleaning device B moves to a preset position within the base station, the trigger member 50 is pushed by the cleaning device B, causing the locking member 60 to unlock the second switching member 40, which can then rotate under the action of the suction member to conduct the second air passage 2. The suction member collects debris in the dust collection box of the cleaning device B through the second air passage 2 and the third opening 1c. As the cleaning device B moves until it is detached from the trigger member 50, the locking member 60 overcomes the force of the trigger member 50 and locks the second switching member 40, holding the second switching member 40 in a state where it blocks the second air passage 2, allowing the suction member to collect debris in the cleaning groove 11 through the first air passage 3.

[0098] For example, as cleaning device B moves to a predetermined position within the base station, cleaning device B strikes the trigger member 50, causing the trigger member 50 to move relative to the base station base 1, which in turn causes the locking member 60 to unlock the second switching member 40.

[0099] In this embodiment, the locking member 60 blocks the third opening 1c and the first air passage 3 by maintaining the second switching member 40 in a state that blocks the second air passage 2. Because the locking member 60 can lock the second switching member 40, the second switching member 40 is relatively stable during operation.

[0100] To ensure understanding, the present invention is not limited to the switching assembly 30 comprising a trigger member 50, a second switching member 40, and a locking member 60. Exemplarily, the switching assembly 30 includes a third switching member and a return member, the third switching member being rotatably mounted on a base station base 1, the base station base 1 having a contact portion with the second air passage 2, both ends of the return member being in contact with the base station base 1 and the third switching member respectively, the return member being elastic and used to apply elastic force to the third switching member so that the third switching member comes into contact with the contact portion, thereby blocking the third opening 1c from the second air passage 2. Because the third switching member is rotatable under the action of the cleaning device, it overcomes the elastic force applied to the return member and disengages from the contact portion, allowing the third opening 1c to communicate with the second air passage 2.

[0101] In one embodiment, the base station base 1 has a charging terminal B2 which is used to charge the cleaning device B. The charging terminal B2 is located on the side of the base station base 1 facing the cleaning groove 11. When the cleaning device B moves to a preset position, the charging terminal B2 is electrically connected to the cleaning device B and the cleaning device B is charged.

[0102] In this embodiment, when the cleaning device B moves to a preset position, the suction member can suck up the debris inside the cleaning device B via the second air passage 2, and this process is linked to the charging of the cleaning device B by the charging terminal B2, thereby improving the user experience.

[0103] In one embodiment, the base station base 1 further has a water inlet used to supply water to the water tank of the cleaning device B. The water inlet is located on the side of the base station base 1 facing the cleaning groove 11, and when the cleaning device B moves to a preset position, the water inlet comes into contact with the water tank of the cleaning device B and supplies water to the tank.

[0104] In this embodiment, when the cleaning device B moves to a preset position, the suction member can suck up debris from inside the cleaning device B via the second air passage 2. This process is linked to the supply of water from the water tank of the cleaning device B via the water inlet, resulting in a better user experience.

[0105] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 6 and 7, the second switching member 40 comprises a valve plate 401, a rotating shaft 410, and a lock bar 420. The valve plate 401 is used to shut off or open the second air passage 2 and is located within the second air passage 2. The rotating shaft 410 is used to control the valve plate 401 to open or close the second air passage 2, and the rotating shaft 410 is rotatably mounted on a base station base 1, and the valve plate 401 is connected to the rotating shaft 410. The lock bar 420 contacts the locking member 60, maintaining the state in which the valve plate 401 blocks the second air passage 2. The lock bar 420 is connected to the rotating shaft 410. As the cleaning device B moves until it detaches from the trigger member 50, the locking member 60 contacts the lock bar 420 along the circumferential direction of the rotating shaft 410, locking the second switching member 40. As the cleaning device B moves to a preset position within the base station, the trigger member 50 is able to drive the locking member 60 to detach from the lock bar 420 under the action of the cleaning device B, unlocking the second switching member 40. When the locking member 60 is unlocked, the valve plate 401 rotates to a position that allows the second air passage 2 to conduct under the suction action of the suction member, thereby allowing the third opening 1c to conduct to the first air passage 3 via the valve plate 401.

[0106] For example, the valve plate 401 is located between the third opening 1c and the boundary between the first air passage 3 and the second air passage 2.

[0107] In this embodiment, the second switching member 40 comprises a valve plate 401, a rotating shaft 410, and a lock bar 420. The lock bar 420 is mounted on the rotating shaft 410, and when the second switching member 40 is maintained in a state that blocks the second air passage 2, the lock bar 420 comes into contact with the lock member 60. When the lock bar 420 comes into contact with the lock member 60, it shortens the stroke required for the lock member 60 to move between locked and unlocked states and reduces interference between the lock member 60 and other members. Furthermore, the lock bar 420 coming into contact with the lock member 60 allows for stable restriction of the rotation of the rotating shaft 410.

[0108] To ensure understanding, the present invention is not limited to the second switching member 40 comprising a valve plate 401, a rotating shaft 410, and a locking bar 420. In one embodiment, the second switching member 40 comprises a valve plate 401 and a rotating shaft 410 connected to each other, and when the second switching member 40 is maintained in a state that blocks the second air passage 2, the locking member 60 abuts against the rotating shaft 410 to restrict the rotation of the rotating shaft 410.

[0109] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 6 and 7, when the valve plate 401 blocks the second air passage 2, the valve plate 401 is positioned below the rotating shaft 410, and the locking member 60 abuts against the side of the locking bar 420 away from the third opening 1c, locking the second switching member 40.

[0110] In this embodiment, the valve plate 401 is located below the rotating shaft 410, and the locking member 60 abuts against the side of the locking bar 420 away from the third opening 1c. By making full use of the side of the locking bar 420 away from the third opening 1c, the mutual interference between the locking member 60 and the trigger member 50 can be reduced.

[0111] To ensure understanding, the present invention is not limited to the valve plate 401 being located below the rotating shaft 410. Exemplarily, when the valve plate 401 is blocking the second air passage 2, the valve plate 401 is located above the rotating shaft 410, and when the second switching member 40 is maintained in a state of blocking the second air passage 2, the locking member 60 abuts against the side of the locking bar 420 facing the third opening 1c.

[0112] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 7, the locking member 60 comprises a locking rod 600, a locking block 610, and an elastic member 62. The locking rod 600 is used to engage with the trigger member 50, thereby switching the second switching member 40 between an unlocked state and a locked state, and the locking rod 600 is rotatably mounted on the base station base 1. The locking block 610 is used to unlock and lock the second switching member 40, and the locking block 610 is connected to the locking rod 600. The elastic member 62 is used to provide elasticity to the lock rod 600, with both ends of the elastic member 62 connected to the base station base 1 and the lock rod 600, respectively. As the cleaning device B moves to a preset position within the base station, the trigger member 50 drives the lock rod 600 to rotate, overcoming the elasticity of the elastic member 62 to unlock the second switching member 40. Once the cleaning device B has moved away from the trigger member 50, the lock rod 600 rotates to a position that locks the second switching member 40 under the elastic action of the elastic member 62.

[0113] For example, the elastic member 62 is a spring.

[0114] In this embodiment, the locking member 60 comprises a locking rod 600, a locking block 610, and an elastic member 62, with both ends of the elastic member 62 connected to the base station base 1 and the locking rod 600, respectively. Since the locking rod 600 can overcome the elastic force applied to the elastic member 62 under the action of the trigger member 50, the locking block 610 detaches from the second switching member 40, resulting in a simple control method and low cost.

[0115] To ensure understanding, the embodiments of the present application are not limited to the locking member 60 comprising a locking rod 600, a locking block 610, and an elastic member 62. Exemplarily, the trigger member 50 is an electromagnetic device, the locking rod 600 is made of a ferromagnetic material, and the locking rod 600 is movable by the magnetic attraction of the trigger member 50, thereby unlocking the second switching member 40.

[0116] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 and 6, the trigger member 50 is formed with a trigger portion 5a and a push portion 5b. The push portion 5b is used to engage with the lock rod 600 so that the second switching member 40 switches between an unlocked state and a locked state. The push portion 5b is located at one end of the trigger portion 5a facing the lock member 60. The push portion 5b is an inclined surface that slopes downward from top to bottom toward the trigger portion 5a. The trigger portion 5a is used to contact the cleaning device B. The trigger portion 5a is located on the side of the base station base 1 facing the cleaning groove 11. As the cleaning device B moves to a preset position within the base station, the trigger portion 5a is pushed by the cleaning device B, causing the lock member 60 to unlock the second switching member 40. When the cleaning device B moves until it is detached from the trigger portion 5a, the lock member 60 overcomes the force of the trigger member 50 and locks the second switching member 40.

[0117] It is important to explain that this application does not restrict the shape of the trigger portion 5a, and the shape of the trigger portion 5a may be provided according to the shape that makes close contact with the cleaning device B. For example, the shape of the trigger portion 5a is rectangular.

[0118] In this embodiment, the trigger member 50 is formed with a trigger portion 5a and a pushing portion 5b, the pushing portion 5b being an inclined surface, and the pushing portion 5b being located at one end of the trigger portion 5a facing the locking member 60. By providing an inclined surface, the displacement of the cleaning device B in the front-rear direction can be converted into the vertical displacement of the trigger member 50, thereby allowing the trigger member 50 to push the movement of the locking member 60.

[0119] To ensure that it is understood that the present invention is not limited to the push portion 5b being inclined. Exemplarily, the trigger portion 5a is inclined. In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 and 5, the base station further comprises a wiping assembly 70, which is mounted on the base station base 1 so as to be rotatably connected, and a wiping portion 7a is formed on the side of the wiping assembly 70 facing the bottom wall of the cleaning groove 11, and the wiping portion 7a abuts against the bottom wall of the cleaning groove 11.

[0120] For example, referring to Figure 1, a protrusion 7c is formed on the side of the wiping assembly 70 away from the wiping section 7a, and the protrusion 7c is used to clean the cleaning device.

[0121] For example, the shape of the convex portion 7c is a frustum of a cone.

[0122] Exemplary, referring to Figure 1, a water guide groove 7d is formed on the side of the wiping assembly 70 away from the wiping portion 7a, the opening of the water guide groove 7d faces upward, the water guide groove 7d extends along the length of the wiping assembly 70, and the water guide groove 7d is used to guide clean water to the protrusion 7c.

[0123] For example, along the longitudinal direction of the wiping assembly 70, the water guide groove 7d is located at one end opposite the protrusion 7c.

[0124] For example, there are two wiping assemblies 70.

[0125] In this embodiment, a wiping portion 7a is formed on the side of the wiping assembly 70 facing the bottom wall of the cleaning groove 11, and the wiping portion 7a is in contact with the bottom of the cleaning groove 11. Since the wiping assembly 70 is rotatable relative to the cleaning groove 11 under the action of the cleaning device, the wiping portion 7a generates relative friction with the bottom wall of the cleaning groove 11. The wiping portion 7a can loosen dust and foreign matter adsorbed on the bottom wall of the cleaning groove 11, and when the first air passage 3 is connected to the suction member, the dust and foreign matter are sucked out of the cleaning groove 11 via the first air passage 3 and discharged.

[0126] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 5, a mounting column 7b is formed on the side of the wiping assembly 70 facing the bottom wall of the cleaning groove 11, and the mounting column 7b is rotatably mounted on the base station base 1, and along the longitudinal direction of the wiping assembly 70, the distance between the mounting column 7b and one end of the wiping assembly 70 is smaller than the distance between the mounting column 7b and the other end of the wiping assembly 70, so that the wiping assembly 70 can rotate until it contacts the collection assembly and the rotation of the wiping assembly 70 can be restricted.

[0127] For example, when the collection assembly is in the first state, it contacts the wiping assembly 70 and limits contact with the wiping assembly 70.

[0128] For example, the material of the mounting column 7b is an elastically deformable material.

[0129] For example, the distance between the mounting column 7b and the end approaching the water channel 7d is greater than the distance between the mounting column 7b and the end approaching the protrusion 7c.

[0130] For example, referring to Figure 5, the distance between the mounting column 7b and one end of the wiping assembly 70 is D2, and the distance between the mounting column 7b and the other end of the wiping assembly 70 is D1, and the length of D2 is less than the length of D1.

[0131] In this embodiment, the wiping assembly 70 can rotate until it contacts the collection assembly, thereby limiting the rotation of the wiping assembly 70. When the cleaning device B enters the cleaning groove 11, the collection assembly limits the rotation of the wiping assembly 70, thereby allowing relative rotation between the cloth of the cleaning device B and the wiping assembly 70, and enabling the wiping assembly 70 to thoroughly clean the cloth.

[0132] In one embodiment, the difference between the distance between the mounting column 7b and one end of the wiping assembly 70 and the distance between the mounting column 7b and the other end of the wiping assembly 70 is in the range of 5 mm to 10 mm.

[0133] For example, the difference between the distance between the mounting post 7b and one end of the wiping assembly 70 and the distance between the mounting post 7b and the other end of the wiping assembly 70 is 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm, and 10 mm.

[0134] In this embodiment, the wiping assembly 70 is reliably limited when the difference in distance between the mounting column 7b and the two ends is within an appropriate range.

[0135] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 5, the wiping assembly 70 comprises a wiping base station base 1 and a scraper bar 71, the wiping base station base 1 is rotatably mounted on the base station base 1, the scraper bar 71 is mounted on the wiping base station base 1, and the wiping portion 7a is formed on the side of the scraper bar 71 facing the bottom wall of the cleaning groove 11.

[0136] For example, the water guide groove 7d and the protrusion 7c are formed on the wiping base station base 1.

[0137] For example, the mounting column 7b is formed on the wiping base station base 1.

[0138] In this embodiment, the wiping assembly 70 comprises a wiping base station base 1 and a scraper bar 71, with the wiping section 7a formed on the side of the scraper bar 71 facing the bottom wall of the cleaning groove 11. The scraper bar 71 can more stably wipe the cleaning groove 11 and loosen dust and foreign matter adhering to the cleaning groove 11. Furthermore, the scraper bar 71 has a longer service life, mitigating the need for users to frequently replace the wiping assembly 70.

[0139] To ensure that it is understood that the embodiments of the present application are not limited to the wiping assembly 70 comprising a wiping base station base 1 and a scraper bar 71. In one embodiment, the wiping assembly 70 comprises a wiping base station base 1 and a brush, the brush being provided on the side of the wiping base station base 1 facing the cleaning groove 11.

[0140] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 8 and 9, the cleaning base station A comprises a dust collection container (not shown), a second air passage 2, a drying passage 4, and a first air passage 3.

[0141] The specific form of the dust collection container is not limited. For example, it may be a dust collection box, a dust collection bag, or a dust collection cup.

[0142] The drying passage 4 is connected to the cleaning groove 11. In this way, the drying airflow in the drying passage 4 flows into the cleaning groove 11, allowing the drying airflow to dry the cleaning groove 11 and the cleaning member of the cleaning device B, thereby drying and evaporating any water remaining in the cleaning member of the cleaning device B and the cleaning groove 11. The cleaning member of the cleaning device B may be, for example, a mop.

[0143] The second air passage 2 has a first end 2a and a second end 2b, the first end 2a being connected to the dust collection container and the second end 2b being used to abut the dust outlet of the cleaning device B. As can be understood, the dust in the dust collection chamber of the cleaning device B is drawn into the dust collection container by the second air passage 2, and the cleaning base station A can clean the dust collection chamber of the cleaning device B.

[0144] The first air passage 3 connects the drying passage 4 to the second air passage 2 and / or the dust collection container, and the first air passage 3 is used to guide at least a portion of the drying airflow from the drying passage 4 to the second air passage 2 and / or the dust collection container.

[0145] The connection method for the first air passage 3 includes method 1, in which the first air passage 3 connects the drying passage 4 and the second air passage 2; method 2, in which the first air passage 3 connects the drying passage 4 and the dust collection container; and method 3, in which the first air passage 3 connects the drying passage 4, the second air passage 2, and the dust collection container.

[0146] In this manner, the dry airflow in the drying passage 4 flows along the first airflow 3 to the second airflow 2 and / or the dust collection container, and any water accumulation in the second airflow 2 and the dust collection container is evaporated and removed by the dry airflow.

[0147] In related technologies, the cleaning device sucks up debris from the floor into the dust collection chamber, but at the same time, it also brings in puddles of water from the debris into the dust collection chamber of the cleaning device. When the cleaning base station cleans the dust collection chamber of the cleaning device, it brings in these puddles of water, which remain in the second air passage and dust collection container, making it prone to mold growth and emitting unpleasant odors, thus degrading the user experience.

[0148] The cleaning base station A according to the embodiment of the present invention guides the dry airflow portion in the drying passage 4 to the second airflow 2 and / or dust collection container by the first airflow 3, dries the second airflow 2 and dust collection container using the dry airflow, evaporates and removes any remaining water, prevents water from remaining in the cleaning base station A for a long period of time, prevents mold growth and unpleasant odors, and improves the user experience.

[0149] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 9, the drying passage 4 has multiple exhaust ports 4a. As can be seen, the multiple exhaust ports 4a transport a drying airflow into the cleaning groove 11, improving the efficiency of the cleaning base station A in drying water puddles on the cleaning groove 11 and the cleaning members of the cleaning device B.

[0150] For illustrative purposes, referring to Figure 11, at least one flow divider 41 is provided within the drying passage 4, and the drying airflow is guided through the flow divider 41 to each exhaust port 4a. As can be understood, the flow divider 41 can distribute the airflow rate of the drying airflow flowing out from each exhaust port 4a, and can rationally distribute the airflow rate of the drying airflow according to the position of each exhaust port 4a, for example, by increasing the airflow rate of the exhaust ports 4a at lower locations in the washing groove 11, thereby improving drying efficiency.

[0151] For illustrative purposes, referring to Figure 9, the multiple exhaust ports 4a are arranged symmetrically along the first symmetrical surface. In this way, the exhaust ports 4a are rationally arranged to improve the drying efficiency of water puddles remaining in the cleaning groove 11 and the cleaning members of the cleaning device B, thereby improving the work efficiency of the cleaning base station A.

[0152] One point that needs to be explained is that the first plane of symmetry is a plane that is perpendicular to the cleaning base station A in the left-right direction and that uniformly divides the cleaning base station A into a left half and a right half.

[0153] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 11 and 12, the connection point between the first air passage 3 and the drying passage 4 is located between the flow divider 41 and one of the exhaust ports 4a. In this way, the airflow rate of the drying airflow that flows from the first air passage 3 to the second air passage 2 is reduced in effect on the other exhaust ports 4a, and the other exhaust ports 4a are able to dry the cleaning groove 11 and the cleaning members of the cleaning device B.

[0154] In some embodiments, the drying passage 4 has an air intake port 4b, and a heating element 42 is provided within the drying passage 4 and is used to heat the airflow flowing into the drying passage 4 from the air intake port 4b.

[0155] It is important to explain that the airflow flowing from the intake port 4b into the drying passage 4 may be heated or unheated. As can be understood, the airflow flowing through the heating element 42 becomes a drying airflow capable of drying the water puddle. Thus, the heating element 42 not only reduces the temperature requirement for the airflow flowing into the drying passage 4, but also increases the temperature of the airflow within the drying passage 4, thereby improving drying efficiency.

[0156] For example, the connection point between the first air passage 3 and the drying passage 4 is located between the heating element 42 and one of the exhaust ports 4a. In this way, the airflow flowing into the first air passage 3 is a drying airflow capable of drying the water puddle, thereby achieving drying of the second air passage 2 and the dust collection container.

[0157] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 11 and 12, the cleaning base station A includes an airflow blocking member 7, which is used to conduct or block the flow of airflow in the drying passage 4 to the first air passage 3. As can be understood, the airflow blocking member 7 can control the airflow between the first air passage 3 and the drying passage 4, and when it is necessary to dry the second air passage 2 and the dust collection container, the airflow blocking member 7 conducts the flow between the first air passage 3 and the drying passage 4. It should be noted that when the second air passage 2 is needed to collect dust from the cleaning device B, the first air passage 3 is closed. As can be understood, the airflow blocking member 7 may also be called an airflow control member in other embodiments.

[0158] In the embodiments of the present invention, the airflow blocking member 7 may move in other ways to realize the function of conducting or blocking the airflow path between the first air passage 3 and the drying passage 4, for example, by using a motor 200 to synchronize the movement of the airflow blocking member 7, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0159] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 11 and 12, there is a partition wall 9 between the drying passage 4 and the first air passage 3, the partition wall 9 is provided with a through hole 8, and the airflow blocking member 7 is provided on one side of the drying passage 4 and located at the through hole 8. As can be understood, the partition wall 9 can separate the airflow in the drying passage 4 and the first air passage 3 so that the airflow flows through the through hole 8 and the airflow blocking member 7 easily controls the airflow. As can be understood, the partition wall 9 may also be called a partition wall in other embodiments.

[0160] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 11 and 12, the airflow blocking member 7 moves from an open position that opens the through-hole 8 to a closed position that closes the through-hole 8 under the negative pressure action of the first air passage 3. As can be understood, the airflow blocking member 7 can be passively switched between the open and closed positions in response to changes in air pressure within the first air passage 3. When the cleaning base station A collects dust from the cleaning device B, it creates negative pressure within the first air passage 3, causing the airflow blocking member 7 to automatically close the cleaning device, eliminating the need for additional control structures and ensuring high structural reliability. It should be explained that the airflow blocking member 7 being under the negative pressure action of the first air passage 3 means that when negative pressure is generated in the second air passage 2, the airflow in the first air passage 3 flows towards the dust collection container under the influence of the suction force generated by the negative pressure, and at this time, the airflow blocking member 7 is also affected by the suction force.

[0161] It is important to explain that the open position means that there is a passage between the airflow blocking member 7 and the through hole 8 that allows airflow to pass through, and in this position, airflow can flow between the drying passage 4 and the first air passage 3. The closed position means that the airflow blocking member 7 seals the through hole 8 and blocks the airflow path between the drying passage 4 and the first air passage 3.

[0162] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 11 and 12, if the negative pressure effect in the first air passage 3 disappears or decreases, the airflow blocking member 7 returns to the open position under its action. As can be understood, when the cleaning base station A does not collect dust from the cleaning device B, the air pressure in the first air passage 3 is normal, the airflow blocking member 7 is not subjected to suction, and the airflow blocking member 7 moves from the closed position to the open position under its own elastic action, without requiring any additional control structure, resulting in a simple and reliable structure.

[0163] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 9, the second air passage 2 includes a first passage 21 and a second passage 22, with one end of the first passage 21 away from the second passage 22 connected to a dust collection container, and the other end of the second passage 22 away from the first passage 21 used to abut against the cleaning device B, and the first passage 21 selectively connected to the second passage 22 and / or the first air passage 3. In this way, the second air passage 2 is arranged in stages along different directions, and the structure of the cleaning base station A is compact.

[0164] For example, the first passageway 21 is positioned along the height direction of the cleaning base station A, and the second passageway 22 is positioned along the front-to-back direction of the cleaning base station A. By utilizing the space in the height and front-to-back directions of the cleaning base station A in this way, the space utilization rate of the cleaning base station A can be increased, and the structure can be made more compact.

[0165] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 9, the cleaning base station A further comprises an airflow switching mechanism 6, which is located at the intersection and used to connect the first airflow 3 and the first passage 21. As can be understood, when the airflow switching mechanism 6 connects the first airflow 3 and the first passage 21, the airflow in the first airflow 3 can flow into the dust collection container along the first passage 21, and at the same time, the airflow in the dust collection container can flow into the first airflow 3 along the first passage 21. As can be understood, the airflow switching mechanism 6 may also be called an airflow switching device in other embodiments.

[0166] In some embodiments, the airflow switching mechanism 6 has at least a first state and a second state, in the first state, the first airflow 3 and the first passage 21 are opened and the second passage 22 is closed, and in the second state, the first passage 21 and the second passage 22 are opened and the first airflow 3 is closed.

[0167] To make it easier to understand, when the airflow switching mechanism 6 is in the first state, the airflow can flow between the first airflow 3 and the first passage 21, thereby allowing the dry airflow in the first airflow 3 to flow into the dust collection container along the first passage 21 and evaporate any accumulated water in the dust collection container. When the airflow switching mechanism 6 is in the second state, the airflow can flow between the first passage 21 and the second passage 22, thereby drawing impurities in the dust collection chamber of the cleaning device B into the dust collection container along the first passage 21 and the second passage 22, cleaning the impurities in the cleaning device B.

[0168] In some embodiments, the airflow switching mechanism 6 further has a third state, in which the first airflow 3 and the second passage 22 are connected and the first passage 21 is closed. As can be understood, when the airflow switching mechanism 6 is in the third state, airflow can flow between the first airflow 3 and the second passage 22, thereby allowing the dry airflow in the first airflow 3 to flow into the cleaning device B along the second passage 22, evaporating and removing any water accumulation in the dust collection chamber of the cleaning device B, and preventing mold growth and odor generation in the dust collection chamber of the cleaning device B over extended periods.

[0169] In the embodiments of the present invention, the airflow switching mechanism 6 may employ other methods to control the airflow between the first airflow path 3, the first passage 21, and the second passage 22, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0170] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 9 and 10, the airflow switching mechanism 6 comprises a switching motor 61 and a switching structure (not shown), the switching motor 61 is used to drive the rotation of the switching structure, which is located at the connection point of the first airflow 3, the first passage 21 and the second passage 22. As can be understood, when the switching structure rotates into the second passage 22, the switching structure blocks the flow path between the second passage 22 and the first airflow 3, and the airflow switching mechanism 6 is in the first state. When the switching structure rotates into the first airflow 3, the switching structure blocks the flow path between the first airflow 3 and the second airflow 2, and the airflow switching mechanism 6 is in the second state. When the switching structure rotates into the first passage 21, the switching structure blocks the flow path between the first passage 21 and the first airflow 3, and the airflow switching mechanism 6 is in the third state. In this way, the airflow switching mechanism 6 can accelerate the switching speed between the first state, the second state, and the third state, thereby improving the work efficiency of the cleaning base station A.

[0171] One point that needs to be explained is that the switching structure may be a sealing plate, a sealing piece, or a sealing flag.

[0172] For example, the connections between the first air passage 3, the first passage 21, and the second passage 22 may be formed as a three-way structure.

[0173] In other embodiments, dampers may be provided in the first air passage 3, the first passage 21, and the second passage 22, respectively, so that the three dampers work together to fit together, with two dampers used to open the first air passage 3 and the first passage 21 respectively, while the other damper closes the second passage 22; and two of these dampers used to open the first passage 21 and the second passage 22 respectively, while the other damper closes the first air passage 3; and two of these dampers used to open the first air passage 3 and the second passage 22 respectively, while the other damper closes the first passage 21.

[0174] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 9, one end of the first air passage 3 connected to the drying passage 4 extends to the cleaning groove 11, forming a suction port 3a, which, under the negative pressure of the second air passage 2, sucks in impurities from the cleaning groove 11. As can be understood, the first air passage 3 is connected to the second air passage 2, and negative pressure is also created within the first air passage 3, causing airflow to flow into the first air passage 3 through the suction port 3a, and then into the dust collection container. Impurities approaching the suction port 3a in the cleaning groove 11 are sucked into the dust collection container via the first air passage 3, thereby reducing the amount of impurities in the cleaning groove 11. It should be explained that when the cleaning base station A sucks in impurities from the cleaning groove 11, negative pressure is created within the first air passage 3, causing the airflow blocking member 7 to close.

[0175] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 8 and 9, the cleaning groove 11 has a filtration groove 12, and the cleaning base station further comprises a filtration structure 121, the filtration structure 121 is provided in the filtration groove 12, and the suction port 3a is located in the filtration structure 121 to suck up foreign matter captured by the filtration structure 121. As can be understood, wastewater generated in the process of cleaning the cleaning member is discharged through the filtration groove 12, the filtration structure 121 can capture impurities in the wastewater discharged through the filtration groove 12, reducing the amount of impurities in the wastewater discharged by the cleaning base station A, and the impurities captured by the filtration structure 121 can be sucked into the dust collection container by the suction port 3a, preventing accumulation and clogging if the filtration structure 121 captures too many impurities, and increasing the ability of the filtration structure 121 to capture impurities in the wastewater.

[0176] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 9, the cleaning base station A further comprises a cleaning member 5, which is rotatably mounted on the suction port 3a and used to clean the filtration structure 121 while rotating. As can be understood, the cleaning member 5 can scrape and / or tap the filtration structure 121 while rotating, causing impurities captured by the filtration structure 121 to fall off, which are then sucked into the dust collection container by the suction port 3a, preventing accumulation and clogging if the filtration structure 121 captures too many impurities, and increasing the filtration structure 121's ability to capture impurities in wastewater.

[0177] In the embodiments of the present invention, the cleaning member 5 can be driven by a power source, for example, by motor drive or negative pressure drive, for example, by creating negative pressure in the first air passage 3, airflow is made to flow into the first air passage through the suction port 3a, and the airflow is made to rotate the cleaning member 5 in conjunction with the airflow. The present invention is not limited thereto.

[0178] The specific structure of the cleaning component 5 is not limited and may include, for example, a drum or a roller brush.

[0179] To make it easier to understand, in other embodiments, the collection assembly may further include the suction port 3a or cleaning member 5 in the above embodiments to achieve scraping and suction of the filter groove 12. For example, the suction port 3a and cleaning member 5 can scrape the filter groove 12, loosen any debris adhering to it, and suck out the debris inside the filter groove 12 using negative pressure for dust collection.

[0180] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 9, the base station base 1 has a filtration groove 12, and the filtration groove 12 has a filtration structure 121. As can be understood, the cleaning groove 11 can be used to clean the cleaning members of the cleaning device, wastewater generated in the process of cleaning the cleaning members can be discharged through the filtration groove 12, and the filtration structure 121 can capture impurities in the wastewater discharged from the filtration groove 12, thereby reducing the amount of impurities in the wastewater discharged by the cleaning base station A. As can be understood, the filtration groove 12 may also be called a waste discharge port in other embodiments.

[0181] Referring to Figure 9, the second air passage 2 has a first end 2a and a second end 2b, the first end 2a communicating with the dust collection container and the second end 2b having a dust collection port 2c, which is used to abut the dust collection port of cleaning device B. As can be understood, the dust in the dust collection chamber of cleaning device B can be drawn into the dust collection container by the second air passage 2, and cleaning base station A can clean the dust collection chamber of cleaning device B.

[0182] Referring to Figure 10, the first air passage 3 connects the second air passage 2 and the filtration groove 12, and one end of the first air passage 3 closest to the filtration groove 12 has a suction port 3a. The suction port 3a can draw impurities near the filtration groove 12 into the dust collection container via the first air passage 3, reducing the amount of impurities near the filtration groove 12 and reducing the possibility of clogging of the filtration groove 12 due to excessive impurities, thereby improving the reliability of the discharge operation by the filtration groove 12.

[0183] The cleaning base station A according to the embodiment of the present invention can suck impurities captured and accumulated by the filtration structure 121 into the dust collection container via the suction port 3a, thereby enabling self-cleaning of the filtration structure 121, increasing the degree of automation of the cleaning base station A, and improving the convenience for users when using the cleaning base station A.

[0184] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 10, the cleaning base station A further comprises a cleaning member 5, which is rotatably mounted on the suction port 3a. As can be understood, the cleaning member 5 can clean impurities captured by the filtration structure 121 while rotating, so that the impurities fall off the filtration structure 121 and are drawn into the dust collection container by the suction port 3a, preventing accumulation and clogging if the filtration structure 121 captures too many impurities, and increasing the ability of the filtration structure 121 to capture impurities in the wastewater.

[0185] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 10, the filtration structure 121 is arc-shaped and conforms to the circumferential outer edge of the cleaning member 5. As can be seen, during rotation, the circumferential outer edge of the cleaning member 5 can scrape and / or tap the filtration structure 121, and the arc shape conforming to the circumferential outer edge of the cleaning member 5 can increase the scraping and / or tapping area of ​​the filtration structure 121 by the cleaning member 5, thereby increasing the cleaning ability of the filtration structure 121 during rotation of the cleaning member 5.

[0186] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 10, the cleaning member 5 is elastically deformable along the radial direction. As can be understood, the cleaning member 5 is elastically deformable along the radial direction during rotation, and the circumferential outer edge of the cleaning member 5 easily contacts the filtration structure 121 and scrapes and / or taps the filtration structure 121.

[0187] In some embodiments, the circumferential outer edge of the cleaning member 5 is in contact with the filtration structure 121. As can be understood, this increases the scraping and / or tapping force on the filtration structure 121 by the cleaning member 5, thereby improving the cleaning ability of the filtration structure 121.

[0188] In some other embodiments, there is a gap between the circumferential outer edge of the cleaning member 5 and the filtration structure 121. In this way, the flow passage through which the airflow flows into the first air passage 3 via the suction port 3a can be shortened, making it easier for negative pressure to form in the first air passage 3, increasing the suction force of the suction port 3a, and making it easier for impurities on the filtration structure 121 to be sucked into the dust collection container by the suction port 3a.

[0189] The specific structure of the cleaning component 5 is not limited and may include, for example, a drum or a roller brush.

[0190] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 10, the cleaning member 5 includes a plurality of blades 51, which are distributed radially. In this way, as the cleaning member 5 rotates, the plurality of blades 51 can alternately scrape the filtration structure 121, so that the cleaning member 5 can continuously clean the filtration structure 121 while rotating, thereby enhancing the cleaning capacity of the cleaning member 5.

[0191] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 10, in a planar projection perpendicular to the axial direction of the cleaning member 5, the blades 51 are arc-shaped, and since the blades 51 are manufactured from an elastic material, the blades 51 can undergo elastic deformation along the radial direction under the action of rotational centrifugal force. As can be understood, the arc-shaped blades 51 extend radially during rotation, making it easier for them to tap the filtration structure 121, increasing the tapping area of ​​the filtration structure 121 during rotation and improving the cleaning capacity of the cleaning member 5. At the same time, as the cleaning member 5 rotates, the elastic material makes it easier for the blades 51 to extend radially under the action of rotational centrifugal force, allowing the blades 51 to clean the filtration structure 121.

[0192] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 10, the distance between the outer edge of the blade 51 and the filtration structure 121 along the radial direction is 1 mm to 5 mm. As can be understood, if the cleaning member 5 is not rotating, the blade 51 will not be in contact with the filtration structure 121, thereby reducing the resistance the cleaning member 5 experiences when it starts to rotate, making it easier to start the cleaning member 5. After the cleaning member 5 is started, as the centrifugal force acting on the blade 51 increases, the blade 51 elastically deforms along the radial direction, causing the blade 51 to come into contact with the filtration structure 121. As the blade 51 rotates, it scrapes and / or taps the filtration structure 121, removing impurities from within the filtration structure 121, making it easier for the impurities on the filtration structure 121 to be drawn into the dust collection container.

[0193] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 11, the cleaning member 5 rotates due to negative pressure drive in the first air passage 3. As can be understood, when the cleaning base station A performs dust collection work, negative pressure is created in the second air passage 2. Since the first air passage 3 is connected to the second air passage 2 and negative pressure is also created in the first air passage 3, external airflow flows in from the suction port 3a and flows toward the dust collection container. The flowing airflow drives the rotation of the cleaning member 5, causing the cleaning member 5 to begin scraping the filtration structure 121. The scraped impurities are carried by the airflow to the dust collection container. In this way, self-cleaning of the filtration structure 121 is achieved without requiring an additional power mechanism, the cleaning base station A has a simple structure and requires few parts, and is easy to produce and manufacture.

[0194] In some other embodiments, the cleaning base station A is equipped with a motor 200, which is used to drive the rotation of the cleaning member 5. The power output shaft of the motor 200 can deliver power to the cleaning member 5 directly or indirectly. As can be understood, the motor 200 can drive the cleaning member 5 to rotate reliably, so that the cleaning member 5 can easily clean the filtration structure 121 in a timely manner and ensure the filtration capacity of the filtration groove 12.

[0195] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 10, the second air passage 2 includes a first passage 21 and a second passage 22, with one end of the first passage 21 away from the second passage 22 connected to a dust collection container, and a dust collection port 2c provided at one end of the second passage 22 away from the first passage 21, and the first passage 21 selectively connected to the second passage 22 and / or the first air passage 3. This contributes to the staggered arrangement of the second air passage 2 and makes the structure of the cleaning base station A compact.

[0196] For example, the first passageway 21 is positioned along the height direction of the cleaning base station A, and the second passageway 22 is positioned along the front-to-back direction of the cleaning base station A. By utilizing the space in the height and front-to-back directions of the cleaning base station A in this way, the space utilization rate of the cleaning base station A can be increased, and the structure can be made more compact.

[0197] Referring to Figures 8 and 9, the cleaning base station A is equipped with an airflow switching mechanism 6, which has at least a first state and a second state. In the first state, the airflow switching mechanism 6 connects the first airflow 3 and the first passage 21 and closes the second passage 22. In the second state, the airflow switching mechanism 6 connects the first passage 21 and the second passage 22 and closes the first airflow 3.

[0198] To make it easier to understand, when the cleaning base station A cleans the filtration structure 121, the airflow switching mechanism 6 enters a first state, opening the first airflow 3 and the first passage 21. The negative pressure generated in the dust collection container draws impurities in the filtration groove 12 into the dust collection container along the first airflow 3 and the first passage 21, and simultaneously rotates the cleaning member 5. By closing the second passage 22, most of the negative pressure generated in the dust collection container is used to guide the airflow into the dust collection container along the first airflow 3 and the first passage 21, thereby increasing the cleaning capacity of the cleaning member 5 to the filtration structure 121. When cleaning base station A collects dust from the dust collection chamber of cleaning device B, the airflow switching mechanism 6 enters a second state, opening the first passage 21 and the second passage 22. This draws impurities in the dust collection chamber into the dust collection container along the first passage 21 and the second passage 22. Simultaneously, by closing the first airflow path 3, most of the negative pressure generated in the dust collection container is used to guide the airflow into the dust collection container along the first passage 21 and the second passage 22, thereby enhancing the cleaning capacity of cleaning base station A to the dust collection chamber.

[0199] For example, the airflow switching mechanism 6 further has a third state, in which the airflow switching mechanism 6 simultaneously conducts the first airflow 3, the first passage 21, and the second passage 22. In this way, the cleaning base station A contributes to the simultaneous dust collection operation to the dust collection chamber of the cleaning device B and the cleaning operation to the filtration structure 121.

[0200] In the examples of the present invention, the airflow switching mechanism 6 may control the airflow between the first airflow 3, the first passage 21, and the second passage 22 by other means, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0201] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 8 and 9, the airflow switching mechanism 6 comprises a switching motor 61 and a switching structure, the switching motor 61 is used to drive the rotation of the switching structure, which is located at the connection point of the first airflow 3, the first passage 21 and the second passage 22. As can be understood, when the switching structure rotates into the second passage 22, the switching structure blocks the airflow path that flows along the second passage 22 to the dust collection container, and the airflow switching mechanism 6 is in the first state. When the switching structure rotates into the first airflow 3, the switching structure blocks the airflow path that flows along the first airflow 3 to the dust collection container, and the airflow switching mechanism 6 is in the second state. In this way, the switching speed between the first and second states of the airflow switching mechanism 6 is accelerated, improving the work efficiency of the cleaning base station A.

[0202] One point that needs to be explained is that the switching structure may be a sealing plate, a sealing piece, or a sealing flag, etc.

[0203] For example, the connections between the first air passage 3, the first passage 21, and the second passage 22 may be formed as a three-way structure.

[0204] In other embodiments, dampers may be provided in the second passage 22 and the first air passage 3, respectively, so that the two dampers work together and when one damper is used to open the first air passage 3, the other damper closes the second passage 22. When the other damper opens the second passage 22, the other damper closes the first air passage 3.

[0205] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 10 and 11, the cleaning base station A further comprises a drying passage 4, which is connected to a first air passage 3.

[0206] Illustratively, referring to Figures 10 and 11, the cleaning base station A further comprises an airflow blocking member 7, which is used to conduct or block the airflow path between the drying passage 4 and the first air passage 3, and the first air passage 3 guides at least a portion of the drying airflow of the drying passage 4 to the second air passage 2 when the airflow blocking member 7 conducts the airflow path between the drying passage 4 and the first air passage 3.

[0207] To make it easier to understand, during the cleaning process of cleaning device B, water vapor is more likely to enter the dust collection chamber of cleaning device B. Subsequently, when cleaning base station A collects dust and cleans the dust collection chamber, water vapor is more likely to be drawn into the dust collection container via the second air passage 2. When the airflow blocking member 7 connects the drying passage 4 and the first air passage 3, the dry airflow in the drying passage 4 can enter the second air passage 2 along the first air passage 3. As a result, the dry airflow can enter the dust collection container via the second air passage 2, performing a drying and dehumidifying operation on the second air passage 2 and the dust collection container. This dries the water vapor drawn into the second air passage 2 and the dust collection container when cleaning base station A performs its dust collection operation, preventing water vapor from remaining in cleaning base station A for a long time and generating unpleasant odors. It is important to explain that when cleaning base station A needs to dry the second air passage 2 and the dust collection container, the first air passage 3 and the second air passage 2 are connected. In some embodiments, referring to Figures 10 and 11, there is a partition wall 9 between the drying passage 4 and the first air passage 3, the partition wall 9 is provided with a through hole 8, and the airflow blocking member 7 is provided on the side of the partition wall 9 facing the drying passage 4 and located in the through hole 8. As can be seen, the partition wall 9 can block most of the airflow path between the drying passage 4 and the first air passage 3, and the mutual fitting between the airflow blocking member 7 and the through hole 8 contributes to achieving conduction or blockage of the airflow path between the drying passage 4 and the first air passage 3.

[0208] Exemplary, the airflow blocking member 7 moves from an open position that opens the through-hole 8 to a closed position that closes the through-hole 8 by elastically deforming under the negative pressure action of the first air passage 3, and is also used to move from the closed position to the open position under its own elastic action. As can be understood, the airflow blocking member 7 can be passively switched between the open and closed positions in response to changes in air pressure within the first air passage 3, increasing the consistency between the position of the airflow blocking member 7 and the working state of the cleaning base station A, and improving the accuracy of switching the position of the airflow blocking member 7.

[0209] Points that need to be explained include the fact that the airflow blocking member 7 elastically deforms under the negative pressure of the first air passage 3, meaning that when airflow flows into the dust collection container via the first air passage 3, the airflow applies a suction force to the airflow blocking member 7, and the airflow blocking member 7 elastically deforms under the suction force. The open position means that there is a passage between the airflow blocking member 7 and the through hole 8 that allows airflow to pass through, and at this time, airflow can flow between the drying passage 4 and the first air passage 3. The closed position means that the airflow blocking member 7 seals the through hole 8 and blocks the airflow path between the drying passage 4 and the first air passage 3.

[0210] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 13 to 15, the cleaning base station A further comprises a retaining rib B3, the retaining rib B3 being provided to surround at least a portion of the charging terminal B2, so as can be understood, the enclosure means that the position where the retaining rib B3 is installed is located on the periphery of the charging terminal B2, and the retaining rib B3 is provided closer to the charging terminal B2 than other members in the storage space B1, the enclosure may completely surround the charging terminal B2 or be provided to partially surround the charging terminal B2, the retaining rib B3 in the embodiment of the present application is used to separate the charging terminal B2 from the liquid for cleaning the cleaning device B in the storage space B1, so that when the cleaning device B is located in the storage space B1 and cleaning, the retaining rib B3 separates the liquid for cleaning the cleaning device B from the charging terminal B2, preventing the liquid from splashing onto the charging terminal B2.

[0211] In the embodiment of the present invention, the cleaning base station A has a storage space B1 where the cleaning device B stays, and the cleaning device B can return to the storage space B1 to clean the floor after cleaning the floor surface. The cleaning base station A is provided with a charging terminal B2 for charging the cleaning device B, and the charging terminal B2 is located inside the storage space B1. When the cleaning device B cleans inside the storage space B1, cleaning liquid is likely to splash onto the charging terminal B2. If the charging terminal B2 is made of metal and there is liquid on its surface, sparks are likely to be generated during charging, accelerating corrosion of the material and causing the charging terminal B2 to fail. The retaining rib B3 in the embodiment of the present invention is provided so as to surround the charging terminal B2, and the risk of liquid splashing onto the charging terminal B2 when the cleaning device B cleans can be reduced, thereby improving electrical safety, reducing the risk of charging corrosion of the charging terminal B2, and extending the service life of the charging terminal B2.

[0212] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 13 to 15, a nozzle B4 for spraying liquid into a storage space B1 is provided on the cleaning base station A, a mop disc B8 for cleaning the floor surface is provided at the bottom of the cleaning device B as shown in Figure 17, a washing disc B9 for cleaning the mop disc B8 is provided at the bottom of the storage space B1, and the nozzle B4 is used to clean the mop disc B8 by spraying liquid into the washing disc B9. The retaining rib B3 is provided at least on the side of the charging terminal B2 closest to the nozzle B4, as can be understood, to reduce the risk of splashing onto the charging terminal B2 when the nozzle B4 sprays liquid, and the retaining rib B3 may also be provided on the other side of the charging terminal B2, used to more completely isolate the liquid from the charging terminal B2.

[0213] Assuming that when the nozzle B4 in the embodiment of the present invention sprays liquid into the storage space B1, the liquid becomes scattered, changes its original trajectory due to resistance, and is sprayed toward the charging terminal B2, the charging terminal B2 is easily corroded and rendered unusable by the liquid. However, if the retaining rib B3 is provided at least on the side of the charging terminal B2 closest to the nozzle B4, the retaining rib B3 can isolate the liquid sprayed from the nozzle B4 from the charging terminal B2. This makes it less likely for the liquid sprayed from the nozzle B4 to splash onto the charging terminal B2, reducing the risk of the charging terminal B2 being corroded and rendered unusable by the liquid, and extending the service life of the charging terminal B2.

[0214] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 13 to 15, the retaining rib B3 is provided in a U-shape, surrounding the periphery of the charging terminal B2, and opening at least on the side away from the nozzle B4. For example, if the charging terminal B2 is rectangular, the U-shaped retaining rib B3 surrounds both the side of the charging terminal B2 closest to the nozzle B4 and the two periphery sides connected to that side, and opens only on the side away from the nozzle B4, thereby isolating all three periphery sides of the charging terminal B2.

[0215] Referring to Figures 13 to 15, when cleaning base station A and cleaning device B are used normally, the nozzle B4 sprays water onto the cleaning disc B9 below, the charging terminal B2 is located above the nozzle B4, and the retaining rib B3 is located at least between the nozzle B4 and the charging terminal B2, isolating the side of the charging terminal B2 closest to the nozzle B4. The U-shaped retaining rib B3 opens on the side away from the nozzle B4, i.e., above the charging terminal B2. As a result, the charging terminal B2 is less affected by the liquid in the cleaning disc B9. For example, when the mop disc B8 cleans inside the cleaning disc B9, the liquid inside the cleaning disc B9 is also likely to splash, but because the liquid does not easily overcome gravity, it enters the charging terminal B2 through the opening of the retaining rib B3 on the side away from the cleaning disc B9, and the liquid that splashes onto the retaining rib B3 is likely to flow back along the retaining rib B3.

[0216] In the embodiment of the present invention, if the retaining rib B3 is provided in a U-shape, more of the retaining rib B3 is provided so as to surround the charging terminal B2, and the retaining rib B3 opens at least on the side away from the nozzle B4, so when the nozzle B4 sprays liquid into the storage space B1, the liquid is less likely to be sprayed onto the charging terminal B2 from the side of the charging terminal B2 away from the nozzle B4, and if the liquid is sprayed from the other side of the charging terminal B2, the liquid is isolated by the retaining rib B3 and cannot come into contact with the charging terminal B2, so the isolation effect of the liquid sprayed from the nozzle B4 by the U-shaped retaining rib B3 is better.

[0217] In other embodiments, the retaining rib B3 is provided so as to completely enclose the periphery of the charging terminal B2, further enhancing the liquid isolation effect of the retaining rib B3.

[0218] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 13 to 15, the storage space B1 is defined by being enclosed by the first side wall B5 of the cleaning base station A, the charging terminal B2 is provided on the first side wall B5, the cleaning base station A is provided at the entrance / exit B11 for the cleaning device B to enter and exit the storage space B1, the entrance / exit B11 is provided opposite the first side wall B5, the power receiving terminal B62 is provided on the rear side wall of the cleaning device B, the front side of the cleaning device B is the front side in the direction the cleaning device B moves when cleaning normally, and the rear side is the rear side in the direction the cleaning device B moves when cleaning normally, the front and rear directions are as shown in Figure 13. When the cleaning device B returns to the cleaning base station A and stops in the storage space B1, the power receiving terminal B62 of the cleaning device B is electrically connected to the charging terminal B2 of the cleaning base station A. When the cleaning device B is stationary in the storage space B1, the cleaning device B is rechargeable, and the retaining ribs B3 abut against the first side wall B5 and the rear side wall of the cleaning device B, respectively, and are enclosed as a semi-sealed space B31 with an opening. Therefore, the power receiving terminal B62 and the charging terminal B2 are exposed to the opening of the semi-sealed space B31. However, the semi-sealed space B31 opens away from the water nozzle B4 and the cleaning disc B9, and when in normal use, the opening of the semi-sealed space B31 is located above the water nozzle B4 and the cleaning disc B9, making it difficult for the water flow to overcome gravity and enter through the opening of the semi-sealed space B31, thereby improving the safety of the cleaning device B when it is stationary in the storage space B1 and recharged.

[0219] Referring to Figures 14 to 18, the outlet B61 of the dust collection box of cleaning device B communicates with the semi-enclosed space B31. As can be understood, when charging is performed by abutting and fitting the charging terminal B2 with the receiving terminal B62, at least a portion of the outlet B61 is located within the semi-enclosed space B31 surrounded by the retaining rib B3, so the outlet B61 communicates directly with the semi-enclosed space B31. Since a dust collection bag is provided in the cleaning base station A that communicates with the opening of the semi-enclosed space B31, the dust collection box, outlet B61, semi-enclosed space B31, and dust collection bag form a flowing and circulating air passage. Foreign matter and dust attracted to the cleaning device B enter the dust collection section and accumulate there. After the cleaning device B abuts against the cleaning base station A, the cleaning base station A sucks up the dust and foreign matter from the dust collection section through the outlet B61 of the cleaning device B. The dust and foreign matter from the dust collection section are sucked out from the outlet B61 under the action of suction and enter the semi-sealed space B31. The airflow flows into the semi-sealed space B31, passes through the abutting section of the charging terminal B2 and the power receiving terminal B62, and enters the dust collection bag of the cleaning base station A through the opening of the semi-sealed space B31. The path after the airflow flows out from the outlet B61 is as shown by the arrows in Figure 2. To make it easier to understand, the outlet B61 may also be called the exhaust port in other embodiments.

[0220] Referring to Figures 14 to 18, the retaining rib B3 is provided in a U-shape, the U-shaped retaining rib B3 surrounds a U-shaped semi-sealed space B31, the U-shaped retaining rib B3 opens on only one side, and the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62 are located at the opening of the U-shaped retaining rib B3, and the opening end is at least higher than the bottom ends of the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62. As a result, airflow flows out from the outlet B61 and enters the U-shaped semi-sealed space B31, and under the guiding action of the U-shaped retaining rib B3, the airflow flows to the opening of the semi-sealed space B31, and in the flow process, passes through the abutting portion of the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62 and flows out from the opening. The retaining rib B3 is provided in a U-shape and acts as a flow guide for the airflow that enters the semi-sealed space B31, causing the airflow to concentrate and flow to the U-shaped opening, and allowing more airflow to flow over the surfaces of the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62.

[0221] In the embodiment of the present invention, when the outlet B61 of the cleaning device B is connected to the semi-sealed space B31, when the cleaning base station A sucks up dust and foreign matter from the dust collection section of the cleaning device B via the outlet B61 of the cleaning device B, the airflow is discharged from the exhaust hole, then passes through the joint between the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62, and is discharged from the opening of the semi-sealed space B31. This airflow helps to blow away any water film remaining on the surfaces of the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62, further extending their service life, and simultaneously improving the work performance and safety performance of the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62.

[0222] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 13 to 16, with the cleaning device B stationary in the storage space B1, the retaining ribs B3 abut against the first side wall B5 of the cleaning base station A and the rear side wall of the cleaning device B, respectively. The retaining ribs B3 are further provided with a flange B32 in the height direction, and the flange B32 is used to make close contact with the surface of the rear side wall of the cleaning device B. The height direction refers to the direction in which the retaining ribs B3 extend outwards from the first side wall B5.

[0223] In the embodiment of the present invention, the retaining rib B3 is further provided with a flange B32 in the height direction, and the flange B32 is used to adhere closely to the surface of the cleaning device B, thereby enhancing the sealing between the retaining rib B3 and the surface of the cleaning device B, and making it difficult for liquid to enter the semi-sealed space B31 through the gap between the retaining rib B3 and the surface of the cleaning device B.

[0224] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 16, the retaining rib B3 is made of a flexible material, such as rubber or TPU (TPU is known in Japanese as thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer and has high elasticity comparable to rubber). Of course, the embodiments of this application are not limited to the above materials, and the material of the retaining rib B3 should be waterproof and have good elasticity.

[0225] The retaining rib B3 in the embodiment of the present invention is made of a flexible material, which has good deformability and flowability, can be pressed into gaps to exert a watertight effect, has resistance to penetration, and can exert a good sealing and watertight effect on voids and gaps.

[0226] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 14 and 15, a cleaning base station A is provided with multiple charging terminals B2, and retaining ribs B3 are provided corresponding to the multiple charging terminals B2, with each retaining rib B3 surrounding one charging terminal B2.

[0227] In the embodiment of the present invention, a cleaning base station A is provided with a plurality of charging terminals B2, and retaining ribs B3 are provided corresponding to the plurality of charging terminals B2. Each charging terminal B2 is independently provided with one retaining rib B3 to isolate the cleaning liquid. If water unexpectedly enters the retaining rib B3, the plurality of charging terminals B2 will be affected and damaged simultaneously, and the cleaning device B will not be able to charge and be used.

[0228] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 14 and 15, a cleaning base station A is provided with multiple charging terminals B2, the multiple charging terminals B2 share one retaining rib B3, and the one retaining rib B3 is provided so as to surround the multiple charging terminals B2 simultaneously.

[0229] In the embodiment of the present invention, the cleaning base station A is provided with multiple charging terminals B2, and since the multiple charging terminals B2 share one retaining rib B3, by attaching the retaining rib B3, the multiple charging terminals B2 and the liquid can be isolated by attaching only one retaining rib B3, making installation easy.

[0230] Embodiments of the present invention further provide a cleaning system comprising a base station and a cleaning device B according to any of the above embodiments, wherein the cleaning device B is used to clean the surface to be cleaned and can enter or exit the cleaning groove 11.

[0231] In some embodiments, the cleaning device B can be stationary in a storage space B1 and perform at least one of the operations of charging, dust removal, and mop washing. Referring to Figures 17 and 18, the cleaning device B is provided with a receiving terminal B62 electrically connected to a charging terminal B2, the receiving terminal B62 is provided on the rear side wall of the cleaning device B, and in a state where the receiving terminal B62 charges by abutting and fitting with the charging terminal B2, the retaining rib B3 abuts between the first side wall B5 of the cleaning base station A and the rear side wall of the cleaning device B, thereby forming a semi-sealed space B31 between the first side wall B5 and the rear side wall of the cleaning device B, the retaining rib B3 is provided so as to surround both the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62 simultaneously, isolating the receiving terminal B62, and reducing the risk of the liquid for cleaning the two charging members of the charging terminal B2 and the two charging members of the cleaning device B splashing onto the charging terminal B2 and the two charging members of the charging terminal B2 when the cleaning device B is cleaning.

[0232] The cleaning system according to the embodiment of the present invention comprises a cleaning base station A and a cleaning device B. The cleaning base station A can perform at least one of the following operations on the cleaning device B, which is stationed in its storage space B1: charging, dust removal, and mop washing. For example, the cleaning base station A can be used to suck up and collect garbage, allowing the user to periodically dispose of the garbage in the cleaning base station A. Alternatively, the cleaning base station A can be used to provide cleaning components such as a water-supplied cleaning mop, and the wastewater after washing the cleaning components can be collected, allowing the user to periodically dispose of the wastewater in the cleaning base station A. This is convenient for the user.

[0233] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 13 to 15, when the cleaning device B returns to the storage space B1 of the cleaning base station A, it retracts and returns to the cleaning base station A. After returning to the storage space B1, the power receiving terminal B62 located on the rear side wall of the cleaning device B can be charged by directly abutting and fitting with the charging terminal B2 provided on the first side wall B5.

[0234] Referring to Figures 13 to 15, the height of the retaining rib B3 is greater than or equal to the sum of the heights of the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62. Therefore, when the receiving terminal B62 is butted and fitted with the charging terminal B2 to charge, the retaining rib B3 abuts against the first side wall B5 and the rear side wall of the cleaning device B, respectively, thereby forming a semi-sealed space B31. Since the retaining rib B3 is made of a flexible material and is easily deformed by pressure, its height is greater than the sum of the heights of the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62. Therefore, it does not affect the butt fitting of the receiving terminal B62 and the charging terminal B2. Of course, the height of the retaining rib B3 must not be excessively greater than the sum of the heights of the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62. The height direction refers to the direction in which the retaining rib B3 protrudes from the first side wall B5, the direction in which the charging terminal B2 protrudes from the first side wall B5, and the direction in which the power receiving terminal B62 protrudes from the rear side wall of the cleaning device B.

[0235] In the embodiment of the present invention, when the height of the retaining rib B3 is equal to the sum of the heights of the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62, the retaining rib B3 properly contacts the first side wall B5 and the rear side wall of the cleaning device B. When the height of the retaining rib B3 is greater than the sum of the heights of the charging terminal B2 and the receiving terminal B62, the retaining rib B3 is pressed and deformed to make tight contact with the first side wall B5 and the rear side wall of the cleaning device B, thereby enhancing the sealing effect.
