[0010] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application also provides a storage structure on the other hand, which includes at least a storage barrel, a support member and a flexible member; the storage barrel includes a barrel body and a barrel cover, the barrel body is connected to the barrel cover to surround and form a accommodating cavity, and the barrel cover has a negative pressure port; the support member is located in the accommodating cavity, the support member is connected to the side wall of the barrel body and is close to the top of the barrel body; the edges of the flexible member are respectively connected to the inner surface of the barrel body and the support member to divide the accommodating cavity into a clean water cavity and a sewage cavity, the negative pressure port is connected to the sewage cavity, and the negative pressure port opens toward the support member.

In addition, since the heat-conducting component is in contact with the battery pack, the heat released by the battery pack can be transferred to the heat-conducting component. In this way, the heat-conducting component can be regarded as the part of the battery pack extending outward, thereby increasing the contact area between the battery pack and the air, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the battery pack.

[0031] To make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the embodiments of the present application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Terms such as "upper", "above", "lower", "below", "first end", "second end", "one end", "the other end" used in this application to express spatial relative positions are used to describe the relationship of one unit or feature relative to another unit or feature as shown in the accompanying drawings for the purpose of ease of explanation. Terms of spatial relative position may be intended to include different orientations of the device in use or work other than the orientation shown in the figures. For example, if the device in the figure is turned over, the unit described as being "below" or "below" other units or features will be "above" other units or features. Therefore, the exemplary term "below" can encompass both the above and below orientations. The device can be oriented in other ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially related descriptive terms used herein are interpreted accordingly.
[0032] Furthermore, the terms "installed," "disposed," "provided with," "connected," "slidingly connected," "fixed," and "socketed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connected" can mean a fixed connection, a removable connection, or an integral structure; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, an indirect connection through an intermediary, or internal communication between two devices, elements, or components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0033] As people's living standards improve, more and more families are beginning to use cleaning equipment (such as floor scrubbers and sweeping robots, etc.) for auxiliary cleaning to improve their quality of life. Taking the cleaning equipment as a floor scrubber robot as an example, the floor scrubber robot usually uses a battery pack as a power source, and the service life of the battery pack is related to the operating temperature. Taking lithium batteries as an example, when the operating temperature is too high, the isolation membrane inside the lithium battery will be irreversibly damaged, causing the lithium battery to be scrapped and affecting the service life of the lithium battery. The existing method of heat dissipation for the battery pack is to set heat dissipation fins on the battery pack. The heat dissipation fins improve the efficiency of the battery pack's own heat dissipation to reduce the operating temperature of the battery pack. However, the efficiency of passive heat dissipation is even lower and cannot meet the heat dissipation requirements of the battery pack.
[0034] Secondly, the clean water tank and sewage tank on existing floor scrubbers are usually set up independently of each other. During the design, due to the limitations of the structural design and appearance of the floor scrubber, the volume of the two water tanks often needs to be reduced. This also leads to a reduction in the capacity of the two water tanks. Users need to add water and drain sewage multiple times during a cleaning process, which reduces the continuous working time of the floor scrubber and affects the user experience. In addition, because the two water tanks are set up independently on the floor scrubber, when users add clean water and handle sewage, they need to remove and install the two water tanks from the floor scrubber separately, which is cumbersome and also affects the user experience.
[0035] Therefore, how to improve the structure of the cleaning equipment, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect on the battery pack and meeting the heat dissipation requirements of the battery pack, has become an urgent issue to be solved in this field.
[0036] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described in this application are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making any creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0037] The cleaning device provided in this application may be a cleaning robot with cleaning functions such as washing, sweeping, and mopping, and the cleaning device can automatically move on the surface to be cleaned to clean the surface. Of course, the cleaning device can also be a handheld floor scrubber with cleaning functions such as washing, sweeping, and mopping, and the user uses the handheld cleaning device to push the cleaning device to move on the surface to be cleaned to clean the surface, which is not limited here.
[0038] In one achievable embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 3 , the cleaning device may include at least a housing 10, a storage tub 20, and a heat-conducting component 30. The housing 10 serves as the base carrier of the cleaning device, supporting and protecting the other components of the cleaning device. In actual use, a battery pack 40 may be installed within the housing 10. The battery pack 40 serves as the power source for the cleaning device. The electrical energy from the battery pack 40 flows through the circuit to the cleaning device, thereby providing power for the cleaning device to function properly.
[0039] In this embodiment, a storage bucket 20 is connected to the housing 10 and includes a chamber 21 for storing liquid. It should be noted that the storage bucket 20 can function as a clean water tank for storing clean water (purified water or cleaning liquid), a sewage tank for storing sewage, or a combination of a sewage tank and a clean water tank, without specific limitations. Accordingly, depending on the different functions of the storage bucket 20, the liquid contained in the chamber 21 can be clean water and / or sewage.
[0040] The thermally conductive component 30 is a component with high thermal conductivity. It is connected to the storage tub 20 and partially located within the accommodating chamber 21, contacting the liquid therein. It is also in contact with the battery pack 40. As such, when the cleaning device is in operation, the battery pack 40 generates heat, which is transferred through the thermally conductive component 30 into the accommodating chamber 21 and released into the liquid therein. Furthermore, since the specific heat capacity of water (4.18 J / (g·°C)) is significantly higher than the specific heat capacity of air (1.005 J / (g·°C), it requires more energy to change the temperature of the water. Therefore, this embodiment utilizes the liquid within the storage tub 20 to dissipate heat from the battery pack 40. Compared to existing passive heat dissipation methods, this embodiment allows the heat released by the battery pack 40 to be transferred to the liquid more quickly and evenly, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency and meeting the heat dissipation requirements of the battery pack 40.
[0041] In actual applications, the shell of the battery pack 40 should be made of a material with thermal conductivity, such as copper, aluminum or alloys thereof, so that the good thermal conductivity of the shell can be used to fully transfer the heat of the battery cells inside the battery pack 40 to the shell, thereby performing air cooling and heat dissipation by the shell, and the above-mentioned heat-conducting component 30 is in contact with the shell of the battery pack 40, so that the heat on the shell of the battery pack 40 can be transferred to the liquid in the accommodating cavity 21 by the heat-conducting component 30 for heat dissipation.
[0042] The storage bucket 20 can be fixedly connected to the housing 10, forming an integral structure with the housing 10. To facilitate refilling the storage bucket 20 with water and / or cleaning dirt within the storage bucket 20, the storage bucket 20 can also be detachably connected to the housing 10. Specifically, in one achievable embodiment, referring to Figures 2 to 4 , the housing 10 has a mounting cavity 11 and a mounting surface 12. The battery pack 40 is mounted in the mounting cavity 11, and the storage bucket 20 is detachably connected to the housing 10 via the mounting surface 12.
[0043] In actual application, the mounting surface 12 can be constructed as a concave curved surface on the body 10, and the shape of the mounting surface 12 is adapted to the outer contour of the storage bucket 20, so that the storage bucket 20 can be placed in the mounting surface 12. The mounting surface 12 and the storage bucket 20 should also be provided with a snap assembly that can be connected and separated from each other to detachably connect the storage bucket 20 to the mounting surface 12. For example, the snap assembly can include an elastic plug-in block that is connected to the storage bucket 20 and has a corresponding slot on the body 10. When the user needs to remove the storage bucket 20 from the body 10, the user can press the elastic plug-in block to disengage the elastic plug-in block from the slot, and then remove the storage bucket 20 from the mounting surface 12, thereby facilitating the refilling of the storage bucket 20 and / or cleaning the dirt inside the cleaning storage bucket 20. When the user needs to install the storage bucket 20 on the body 10, the user can first press the elastic plug to retract it, then place the storage bucket 20 on the mounting surface 12, and then release the elastic plug so that the elastic plug is inserted into the slot under the action of elasticity, thereby installing the storage bucket 20 on the body 10.
[0044] In this embodiment, a communication port 121 is defined on the mounting surface 12, communicating with the mounting cavity 11. When the storage bucket 20 is connected to the housing 10 via the mounting surface 12, the thermally conductive component 30 is positioned between the storage bucket 20 and the battery pack 40. This allows the thermally conductive component 30 to automatically pass through the communication port 121 and contact the battery pack 40, transferring heat released by the battery pack 40 to the accommodating cavity 21. In other words, as the storage bucket 20 is mounted on the mounting surface 12, the thermally conductive component 30 automatically contacts the battery pack 40, eliminating the need for additional user adjustments, improving installation efficiency, and completely freeing the user's hands.
[0045] Furthermore, the housing 10 may be provided with a heat dissipation vent 13 that communicates with the mounting cavity 11, thereby increasing the window for interaction between the battery pack 40 within the mounting cavity 11 and the outside air. External air can pass through the heat dissipation vent 13 and contact the outer shell of the battery pack 40, thereby removing heat from the outer shell of the battery pack 40. Heat released by the battery pack 40 can then be transferred to the exterior of the housing 10 through the heat dissipation vent 13.
[0046] In this embodiment, the heat dissipation vents 13 and the communication port 121 should be arranged back-to-back or adjacent to each other. However, to ensure the structural strength of the housing 10, this embodiment preferably adopts a configuration in which the heat dissipation vents 13 and the communication port 121 are arranged back-to-back. This allows for sufficient support structure between the heat dissipation vents 13 and the communication port 121 to improve the housing 10's resistance to deformation and damage, thereby ensuring the structural strength of the housing 10. Furthermore, compared to the heat dissipation vents 13 and the communication port 121 dissipating heat from adjacent sides of the battery pack 40, in this embodiment, the heat dissipation vents 13 and the communication port 121 dissipate heat from the two opposite sides of the battery pack 40, ensuring uniform heat dissipation across the battery pack 40, avoiding heat concentration, and further improving the heat dissipation effect on the battery pack 40.
[0047] For example, assuming that the heat dissipation vent 13 and the communication port 121 are arranged back to back, and the cleaning device is a floor scrubber, as shown in Figures 4 and 5, the storage bucket 20 is generally arranged in front of the body 10, and the storage bucket 20 and the battery pack 40 are arranged horizontally side by side, and the storage bucket 20 is located in front of the battery pack 40. Correspondingly, the communication port 121 opens toward the front of the body 10, and the heat dissipation vent 13 opens toward the back of the body 10. It should be noted that the front and back defined in this application are defined with reference to the movement direction of the floor scrubber during normal operation.
[0048] Regarding the connection method between the heat-conducting component 30 and the storage bucket 20, this application provides three feasible embodiments for reference.
[0049] Example 1: The thermal conductive component 30 is integrally formed as at least a portion of the storage tub 20. For example, the entire storage tub 20 may be formed entirely of the thermal conductive component 30. In this case, the thermal conductive component 30 can be considered partially located within the accommodating cavity 21. When the storage tub 20 is connected to the housing 10, any portion of the storage tub 20 can be in contact with the battery pack 40. Alternatively, the thermal conductive component 30 can be integrally formed as part of the storage tub 20, and together with other portions of the storage tub 20, it surrounds the accommodating cavity 21. In this case, the thermal conductive component 30 can also be partially located within the accommodating cavity 21. When the storage tub 20 is connected to the housing 10, the thermal conductive component 30 contacts the battery pack 40.
[0050] Embodiment 2: As shown in FIG6 , one end of the heat-conducting component 30 extends through the storage barrel 20 into the accommodating cavity 21, and the other end of the heat-conducting component 30 is located outside the storage barrel 20 and is used to contact the battery pack 40. Preferably, the heat-conducting component 30 may be an elastic member, so that the heat-conducting component 30 can be in pressurized contact with the battery pack 40 under the action of pressure from the storage barrel 20 toward the battery pack 40, thereby improving the reliability of the contact between the heat-conducting component 30 and the battery pack 40. In actual applications, a through hole may be provided on the storage barrel 20, and one end of the heat-conducting component 30 extends through the through hole into the accommodating cavity 21. A sealing member should be provided at the through hole to prevent the liquid in the accommodating cavity 21 from flowing out through the through hole. Of course, the heat-conducting component 30 can also be formed by insert injection molding and fixed to the storage barrel 20 during the injection molding of the storage barrel 20.
[0051] Embodiment 3: As shown in Figures 7 and 8 , the heat-conducting component 30 may include a heat sink 31 and a heat transfer element 32. The heat transfer element 32 is configured to contact the battery pack 40 to transfer heat released by the battery pack 40 to the heat sink 31. The heat sink 31 is located within the accommodating chamber 21 and is configured to transfer this heat to the liquid within the accommodating chamber 21. Specifically, the heat sink 31 may be constructed as at least a portion of the storage barrel 20. For example, the entire storage barrel 20 may be formed by the heat sink 31, or the heat sink 31 may be partially formed as a sidewall, a sewage suction pipe, or a bottom wall of the storage barrel 20. That is, the heat sink 31 is partially formed as a portion of the storage barrel 20, and together with the other portions of the storage barrel 20, it surrounds the accommodating chamber 21. In this way, the heat-conducting component 30 is partially located within the accommodating chamber 21 while not occupying space within the accommodating chamber 21, thereby ensuring the volume within the accommodating chamber 21. The heat transfer member 32 is located outside the accommodating cavity 21 and is connected to the heat sink 31. The heat transfer member 32 is an elastic member, and when not subject to external forces, the maximum distance between the heat transfer member 32 and the storage barrel 20 is greater than the distance between the storage barrel 20 and the battery pack 40 when the storage barrel 20 is connected to the body 10. As a result, when the storage barrel 20 is connected to the body 10 via the mounting surface 12, the storage barrel 20 and the battery pack 40 squeeze the heat transfer member 32, causing the heat transfer member 32 to deform and generate an elastic force. Under the action of this elastic force, the heat transfer member 32 contacts the battery pack 40, ensuring that the heat transfer member 32 can always be in contact with the battery pack 40, thereby improving the reliability of the contact between the heat conductive component 30 and the battery pack 40. It should be noted that when the heat transfer member 32 transfers the heat released by the battery pack 40 to the heat sink 31, the heat transfer member 32 itself also serves to dissipate the heat.
[0052] In this embodiment, in order to ensure the heat transfer effect between the heat transfer element 32 and the heat sink 31, the heat transfer element 32 and the heat sink 31 can be integrally formed to avoid the presence of a connection gap between the heat transfer element 32 and the heat sink 31 that affects the contact area between the heat transfer element 32 and the heat sink 31. In addition, the heat transfer element 32 and the heat sink 31 can be made of an alloy steel with high thermal conductivity, high strength, and high elasticity, such as spring steel. In this way, the elastic properties of the heat transfer element 32 are guaranteed, the heat sink 31 has sufficient strength, and the heat transfer element 32 and the heat sink 31 have thermal conductivity. In actual application, the heat transfer element 32 and the heat sink 31 can be used as an integral insert and fixed to the storage barrel 20 using an insert injection molding process during the injection molding of the storage barrel 20. Of course, the heat transfer element 32 and the heat dissipation element 31 can also be designed separately. In actual application, the heat dissipation element 31 is fixed to the storage barrel 20 when the storage barrel 20 is injected using an insert injection molding process. Then, the heat transfer element 32 is connected to the heat dissipation element 31 by welding, plugging, etc.
[0053] Regarding the three embodiments of the connection between the heat-conducting component 30 and the storage bucket 20, taking into comprehensive consideration the reliability of the contact between the heat-conducting component 30 and the battery pack 40 when the cleaning device is in use, and whether the heat-conducting component 30 occupies the volume within the accommodating cavity 21, the present application preferably adopts the connection method between the heat-conducting component 30 and the storage bucket 20 in embodiment three, and the following description will also be based on the connection method between the heat-conducting component 30 and the storage bucket 20 in embodiment three.
[0054] In one feasible embodiment, referring to Figures 7 and 8 , the storage bucket 20 is at least used as a sewage tank, that is, the storage bucket 20 is at least used to store the dirt sucked up by the cleaning equipment during cleaning. The storage bucket 20 may include a barrel body 22 and a barrel cover 23 connected to each other, which surround and form the aforementioned accommodating chamber 21. Correspondingly, the heat sink 31 may include a base plate 311 and a sewage suction pipe 312. The base plate 311 is constructed as a portion of the barrel body 22 and is provided with a sewage inlet 3111. The sewage suction pipe 312 is located in the accommodating chamber 21, one end of the sewage suction pipe 312 is connected to the sewage inlet 3111, and the other end of the sewage suction pipe 312 extends upward along the vertical direction of the barrel body 22 and is connected to the accommodating chamber 21, so that when the dirt passes through the sewage inlet 3111 and enters the accommodating chamber 21 along the sewage suction pipe 312, the structure of the sewage suction pipe 312 can prevent the dirt in the accommodating chamber 21 from flowing back, so that the dirt can be retained in the accommodating chamber 21.
[0055] It can be understood that, by setting the above structure, on the one hand, the tubular structure of the sewage suction pipe 312 can increase the contact area between the heat sink 31 and the air, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the heat sink 31 on the battery pack 40. On the other hand, the above structure can utilize the sewage suction process of the cleaning equipment to improve the heat dissipation effect of the heat sink 31 on the battery pack 40. Specifically, when the cleaning equipment sucks dirt into the accommodating chamber 21 through the sewage suction pipe 312, there is always a directional sewage suction airflow in the sewage suction pipe 312, and the sewage suction airflow will continuously take away the heat on the inner wall of the sewage suction pipe 312. When sewage is present in the sucked dirt, the sewage will climb along the inner wall of the sewage suction pipe 312 into the accommodating chamber 21, and the sewage will take away the heat on the inner wall of the sewage suction pipe 312, further improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the sewage suction pipe 312. At the same time, the outer wall of the suction pipe 312 contacts the dirt within the accommodating chamber 21, allowing heat from the suction pipe 312 to be directly transferred to the dirt, further improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the suction pipe 312 and, in turn, the heat dissipation effect of the heat sink 311 on the battery pack 40. Overall, the above structure fully utilizes the inner and outer walls of the suction pipe 312 for heat dissipation, while also coordinating the suction airflow during the cleaning equipment's suction process and the wastewater flowing through the inner wall of the suction pipe 312 to dissipate heat, fully ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the heat sink 311 on the battery pack 40.
[0056] In order to facilitate understanding of the sewage suction process of the above-mentioned cleaning equipment, a detailed description will be given by taking the cleaning equipment as a floor scrubber as an example. Please refer to Figures 1 and 2 again. The body 10 is usually also provided with a sewage inlet pipe 14, a cleaning component 15, and a negative pressure device 16. The cleaning component 15 may include but is not limited to a roller brush assembly, a brush plate assembly, and a circulating rag assembly. One end of the sewage inlet pipe 14 opens toward the cleaning component 15, and the other end of the sewage inlet pipe 14 opens on the mounting surface 12. When the storage bucket 20 is connected to the body 10 through the mounting surface 12, the other end of the sewage inlet pipe 14 is connected to the sewage inlet port 3111, and the air inlet of the negative pressure device 16 is connected to the accommodating chamber 21. When the cleaning equipment cleans the floor through the cleaning component 15, the negative pressure device 16 sucks the air in the accommodating chamber 21, thereby forming a directional sewage suction airflow in the sewage inlet pipe 14 and the sewage suction pipe 312, so that the sewage inlet pipe 14 absorbs the dirt on the cleaning component 15 under the action of the directional sewage suction airflow, and allows the dirt to pass through the sewage inlet pipe 14 and the sewage suction pipe 312 in turn into the accommodating chamber 21.
[0057] In one achievable embodiment, as shown in Figure 9, the base plate 311 includes a interconnected horizontal plate portion 3112 and a vertical plate portion 3113. The horizontal plate portion 3112 is constructed as part of the bottom of the barrel body 22, and the vertical plate portion 3113 is constructed as part of the side wall of the barrel body 22. In this way, the base plate 311 can simultaneously serve as the bottom and side wall of the barrel body 22, contacting the liquid in the accommodating cavity 21. This increases the contact area between the heat sink 31 and the liquid in the accommodating cavity 21, further enhancing the heat dissipation effect of the heat sink 31 on the battery pack 40.
[0058] In this embodiment, the sewage inlet 3111 can be provided on the horizontal plate portion 3112 or the vertical plate portion 3113. However, considering that the cleaning component 15 in the cleaning device is usually disposed below the storage barrel 20, which means that dirt is usually drawn upward into the accommodating chamber 21, this embodiment preferably adopts a method in which the sewage inlet 3111 is provided on the horizontal plate portion 3112, that is, the sewage inlet 3111 is located at the bottom of the barrel body 22. In this way, the sewage inlet pipe 14 can be connected directly up and down with the cleaning component 15 and the sewage inlet 3111, which makes the pipe layout more reasonable, reduces the bending area of the sewage inlet pipe 14, reduces the possibility of dirt being blocked in the sewage inlet pipe 14, and ensures that dirt can flow smoothly into the accommodating chamber 21. In addition, the flow rate in the sewage inlet pipe 14 can be increased, the flow resistance can be reduced, and the utilization efficiency of the sewage inlet pipe 14 can be improved.
[0059] Furthermore, the vertical plate portion 3113 is connected to a surrounding portion 3114 on one side of the accommodating chamber 21. The vertical plate portion 3113 and the surrounding portion 3114 together surround the sewage suction pipe 312. Thus, the sewage suction pipe 312 is formed by the vertical plate portion 3113 and the surrounding portion 3114, which can reduce the manufacturing cost of the sewage suction pipe 312. Moreover, since the vertical plate portion 3113 is part of the barrel body 22, the vertical plate portion 3113 can also improve the overall strength of the sewage suction pipe 312, preventing the sewage suction pipe 312 from bending or deforming during use.
[0060] In one feasible embodiment, as shown in FIG9 , the heat transfer element 32 may include a deformable section 321 and a contact section 322 . One end of the deformable section 321 is connected to the horizontal plate portion 3112 , while the other end of the deformable section 321 extends away from the storage barrel 20 and bends upward near the contact section 322 . The contact section 322 is connected to the other end of the deformable section 321 and extends upward along the vertical direction of the barrel body 22 to a predetermined position. In other words, the deformable section 321 is curved, while the contact section 322 is straight. The radius of curvature of the deformable section 321 is smaller than that of the contact section 322 . Therefore, when the heat transfer element 32 is subjected to the squeezing force of the storage barrel 20 , the force will be mainly concentrated on the deformable section 321 , causing the deformable section 321 to bend and deform. The elastic force released by the deformable section 321 drives the contact section 322 to always fit the battery pack 40 , thereby ensuring the contact stability between the heat transfer element 32 and the battery pack 40 . The contact section 322 makes planar contact with the battery pack 40. Because the contact section 322 is a straight section, it is subject to less force than the deformable section 321 and does not experience significant deformation. This allows the contact section 322 to maintain planar contact with the battery pack 40, increasing the contact area between the heat transfer element 32 and the battery pack 40, thereby fully removing heat from the battery pack 40. It should be noted that the upward extension of the contact section 322 to a specified position is related to the top position of the communication port 121. In practical applications, the upward extension of the contact section 322 should be as close as possible to the top position of the communication port 121, thereby maximizing the contact area between the contact section 322 passing through the communication port 121 and the battery pack 40.
[0061] After the negative pressure device 16 absorbs the air in the accommodating chamber 21, the absorbed air is discharged through the air outlet of the negative pressure device 16. In order to fully utilize the air discharged by the negative pressure device 16, the air discharged by the negative pressure device 16 can be used to dissipate heat from the battery pack 40. Specifically, in one feasible embodiment, please refer to Figures 2, 3 and 10. When the storage barrel 20 is connected to the body 10 through the mounting surface 12, the storage barrel 20 and the mounting surface 12 can surround and form a heat dissipation channel 17. The heat dissipation channel 17 is connected to the mounting chamber 11 through the connecting port 121, and the air outlet of the negative pressure device 16 is connected to the heat dissipation channel 17. In this way, when the air discharged from the air outlet of the negative pressure device 16 flows into the heat dissipation channel 17, the airflow can carry away the heat from the battery pack 40 and the heat sink 31, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the battery pack 40. The flow direction of the air absorbed and discharged by the negative pressure device 16 in the cleaning device can be seen in detail in the direction of the arrow in Figure 2.
[0062] In this embodiment, due to the installation gap between storage tub 20 and mounting surface 12, air flowing into heat dissipation channel 17 can diffuse into the external environment through this installation gap, eliminating the need for additional exhaust holes in housing 10 and reducing production costs. Negative pressure device 16 can be a vacuum pump, negative pressure blower, or the like, and this application does not specifically limit this.
[0063] In actual use, the cleaning device cannot effectively remove stubborn stains on the surface to be cleaned by only using the friction cleaning of the cleaning component 15 and the suction cleaning of the negative pressure device 16. Therefore, in order to improve the cleaning effect of the cleaning device, the storage bucket 20 can also be used as a box body with an integrated sewage tank and a clean water tank. In this way, when the cleaning component 15 cleans the surface to be cleaned, the clean water tank portion of the storage bucket 20 can provide clean water to the cleaning component 15, and the clean water dissolves the stubborn stains on the surface to be cleaned, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device on the surface to be cleaned.
[0064] Regarding the specific embodiment of the storage barrel 20 being used as a housing integrating a sewage tank and a clean water tank, in one feasible embodiment, please refer to Figures 7 and 11 . The cleaning device may further include a support member 50 and a flexible member 60. The support member 50 is located within the accommodating chamber 21, connected to the sidewalls of the barrel body 22 and located near the top of the barrel body 22. The support member 50 is provided with a water inlet 51. The edges of the flexible member 60 are connected to the inner surface of the barrel body 22 and the support member 50, respectively, thereby dividing the accommodating chamber 21 into a clean water chamber 211 and a sewage chamber 212, which are arranged side by side in a horizontal direction. The flexible member 60 can move toward the clean water chamber 211 or toward the sewage chamber 212 to adjust the volume of the clean water chamber 211 and the sewage chamber 212. The clean water chamber 211 is used to hold clean water and serves as a clean water tank. The water inlet 51 is connected to the clean water chamber 211 to allow clean water to be injected into the clean water chamber 211 through the water inlet 51. The sewage chamber 212 is used to accommodate dirt and serves as a sewage tank. The sewage suction pipe 312 is located in the sewage chamber 212 , and the other end of the sewage suction pipe 312 is connected to the sewage chamber 212 so that dirt enters the sewage chamber 212 through the sewage suction pipe 312 .
[0065] It should be noted that the edge of the flexible member 60 connected to the inner surface of the barrel body 22 may include a case where the flexible member 60 is connected only to the side wall of the barrel body 22, or may include a case where the flexible member 60 is connected to both the side wall and the bottom of the barrel body 22. Taking the case where the flexible member 60 is connected to both the side wall and the bottom of the barrel body 22 as an example, the edge of the flexible member 60 may include a bottom edge, a top edge, and two side edges, wherein the bottom edge of the flexible member 60 is connected to the bottom of the barrel body 22, the top edge of the flexible member 60 is connected to the support member 50, and the two side edges of the flexible member 60 are connected to the side wall of the barrel body 22.
[0066] In this embodiment, the support member 50 can be arranged perpendicular to the side wall of the barrel body 22, or the support member 50 can be arranged at an angle to the side wall of the barrel body 22, and this application does not impose any specific restrictions on this. The flexible member 60 refers to a part or component that can be deformed after being subjected to force, and it moves toward the side of the clean water chamber 211 or toward the side of the sewage chamber 212 through deformation. Specifically, when the pressure of one side of the clean water chamber 211 on the flexible member 60 is greater than the pressure of one side of the sewage chamber 212 on the flexible member 60, the pressure difference will drive the flexible member 60 to move toward the side of the sewage chamber 212, compressing the usable volume of the sewage chamber 212 and expanding the usable volume of the clean water chamber 211, thereby increasing the amount of clean water that can be accommodated in the clean water chamber 211. When the pressure exerted on the flexible member 60 by one side of the sewage chamber 212 is greater than the pressure exerted on the flexible member 60 by the one side of the clean water chamber 211, the pressure difference will drive the flexible member 60 to move toward the clean water chamber 211, compressing the usable volume of the clean water chamber 211 and expanding the usable volume of the sewage chamber 212, thereby increasing the capacity of the sewage chamber 212 to accommodate the filth. In other words, when in use, the clean water chamber 211 and the sewage chamber 212 drive the flexible member 60 to deform toward opposite sides based on the pressure difference exerted on the flexible member 60 by the clean water chamber 211 and the sewage chamber 212, temporarily expanding the capacity and increasing the usable volume of each. It should be noted that the deformation of the flexible member 60 can be elastic or inelastic, and this application does not specifically limit this.
[0067] Optionally, the flexible member 60 can be made of a thermoplastic elastomer, soft plastic, soft silicone, soft rubber, nylon, or the like. Preferably, the flexible member 60 is a thermoplastic elastomer, which can be heated and softened before being processed into other shapes. This thermoplastic elastomer exhibits excellent plasticity, facilitating connection and operation between the flexible member 60 and other components. Furthermore, thermoplastic elastomers exhibit excellent elastic recovery properties, allowing them to elastically deform under certain stresses and quickly return to their original shape and size when the stress is removed, thus satisfying the requirement for the flexible member 60 to move toward the clean water chamber 211 and the sewage chamber 212 in this application.
[0068] In actual use, the relationship between the pressure exerted by one side of the clean water chamber 211 on the flexible member 60 and the pressure exerted by one side of the sewage chamber 212 on the flexible member 60 changes with the state of use of the cleaning device. Specifically, when the cleaning device is in the cleaning preparation state, clean water is injected into the clean water chamber 211, and there is no dirt in the sewage chamber 212. As clean water is injected into the clean water chamber 211, the pressure exerted by one side of the clean water chamber 211 on the flexible member 60 becomes greater than the pressure exerted by one side of the sewage chamber 212 on the flexible member 60. The flexible member 60 moves toward the sewage chamber 212, causing part of the clean water to follow the flexible member 60 into the area of the original sewage chamber 212. This increases the usable volume of the clean water chamber 211 while keeping the total volume of the storage barrel 20 unchanged, thereby accommodating more clean water and avoiding the cleaning device from frequently adding clean water during operation, thereby affecting work efficiency. Next, the floor cleaning begins. In the cleaning state, as the clean water chamber 211 supplies water to the cleaning component 15 and dirt is sucked into the sewage chamber 212, the clean water in the clean water chamber 211 is continuously discharged and sewage is continuously entering the sewage chamber 212. During this process, the pressure on the flexible part 60 from one side of the clean water chamber 211 gradually decreases, while the pressure on the flexible part 60 from one side of the sewage chamber 212 gradually increases, until the pressure on the flexible part 60 from one side of the sewage chamber 212 is greater than the pressure on the flexible part 60 from one side of the clean water chamber 211, the flexible part 60 moves toward the clean water chamber 211, causing part of the sewage to follow the flexible part 60 into the area of the original clean water chamber 211, thereby increasing the usable volume of the sewage chamber 212 while keeping the total volume of the storage barrel 20 unchanged, thereby being able to accommodate more sewage, and avoiding the cleaning equipment frequently disassembling the storage barrel 20 to dump sewage during operation, which affects work efficiency.
[0069] It is worth mentioning that the above structure integrates the existing sewage tank and clean water tank into one, avoiding the tedious operation of disassembling the clean water tank and the sewage tank separately during use of the cleaning equipment, thereby improving work efficiency. At the same time, the flexible member 60 separates the accommodating chamber 21 into the clean water chamber 211 and the sewage chamber 212. This allows the clean water chamber 211 and the sewage chamber 212 to be expanded during use without increasing the total volume of the storage barrel 20, thereby being able to accommodate more clean water and sewage during use, thereby reducing the number of times the user adds clean water and dumps sewage, improving the user's work efficiency while reducing the user's work intensity, and helping to enhance the user's user experience. In addition, the above-mentioned clean water chamber 211 and sewage chamber 212 are arranged horizontally and side by side, so that the flexible member 60 can move in the horizontal direction to expand the clean water chamber 211 and the sewage chamber 212. Compared with the flexible member 60 expanding the clean water chamber 211 and the sewage chamber 212 in the vertical direction, when the flexible member 60 moves upward, the gravity of the liquid in the upper cavity hinders the upward movement of the flexible member 60. In this embodiment, the flexible member 60 moves in the horizontal direction to avoid the obstruction of the liquid gravity on it, reduce the resistance encountered by the flexible member 60 during movement, thereby expanding the pressure difference on both sides of the flexible member 60, increasing the deformation of the flexible member 60, and allowing the flexible member 60 to move to the other side as much as possible, making full use of the vertical space of the accommodating chamber 21 to maximize the expansion of the clean water chamber 211 and the sewage chamber 212, and further increasing the capacity of clean water and sewage. In addition, the above-mentioned support member 50 is located directly above the clean water chamber 211, that is, the water inlet 51 is located directly above the clean water chamber 211. In this way, compared with setting the water inlet 51 on the side or below the clean water chamber 211, this embodiment can use the gravity of the clean water itself to reduce the tendency of the clean water to overflow from the clean water chamber 211 through the water inlet 51, thereby improving the sealing effect of the sealing cover at the water inlet 51.
[0070] Furthermore, the sewage chamber 212 is provided with an upper sewage level. When the sewage in the sewage chamber 212 reaches the upper sewage level, the cleaning device will stop and prompt the user to dump the sewage. Typically, the height of the upper sewage level within the accommodating chamber 21 is lower than the height of the water inlet 51, thereby preventing sewage from flowing to the water inlet 51 and entering the clean water chamber 211 through the water inlet 51. In actual use, a liquid level detection device can be provided within the sewage chamber 212 to determine whether the sewage in the sewage chamber 212 has reached the upper sewage level.
[0071] Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 12 , the flexible member 60 may include a first deformable portion 61 and a second deformable portion 62. The second deformable portion 62 is located below the first deformable portion 61, and the elastic modulus of the second deformable portion 62 is smaller than that of the first deformable portion 61. In other words, under the same external force, the second deformable portion 62 is more easily deformed than the first deformable portion 61. Thus, when the clean water chamber 211 discharges clean water, the second deformable portion 62 first contracts inward, followed by the first deformable portion 61. This contraction process coordinates with the upward spread of sewage from the bottom of the sewage chamber 212. Thus, in this embodiment, the usable volume from the bottom of the sewage chamber 212 to the upper limit of the sewage is greater than the usable volume from the bottom of the sewage chamber 212 to the upper limit of the sewage when the flexible member 60 contracts inward simultaneously, thereby further increasing the usable volume of the sewage chamber 212.
[0072] In practical applications, the first deformable portion 61 and the second deformable portion 62 can be made of the same material. The elastic moduli of the first deformable portion 61 and the second deformable portion 62 can be varied by adjusting their thickness. Specifically, when the first deformable portion 61 and the second deformable portion 62 are made of the same material, the thickness of the first deformable portion 61 should be greater than the thickness of the second deformable portion 62, thereby increasing the elastic modulus of the first deformable portion 61 relative to that of the second deformable portion 62. Alternatively, the first deformable portion 61 and the second deformable portion 62 can be made of materials with different elastic moduli to achieve a difference in elastic modulus between the first deformable portion 61 and the second deformable portion 62.
[0073] In this embodiment, the barrel body 22 and the barrel lid 23 are detachably connected. The top of the barrel body 22 has an opening 221, and the barrel lid 23 covers the opening 221. The water inlet 51 and the opening of the sewage chamber 212 are connected to the opening 221. In this way, the user can open the barrel lid 23 and then inject clean water into the clean water chamber 211 through the opening 221 and the water inlet 51 in sequence. In addition, the barrel body 22 can be tilted to allow the sewage in the sewage chamber 212 to flow out through the opening of the sewage chamber 212 and the opening 221 in sequence.
[0074] In practical applications, the orthographic projection of the water inlet 51 on the opening 221 should be located within the opening 221. This means that when the barrel 22 is in a vertical position, the user can vertically inject clean water into the clean water chamber 211 through the opening 221 and the water inlet 51, preventing the flow of dirty water from the dirty water chamber 212. Furthermore, compared to existing methods that place the water inlet 51 on the side of the clean water tank, the present invention eliminates the need to tilt the barrel 22 first, simplifying the water filling operation and reducing the chance of the user's limbs coming into contact with dirt on the inner wall of the dirty water chamber 212, thereby improving the user experience. Furthermore, the opening of the dirty water chamber 212 should face the opening 221, and the opening of the dirty water chamber 212 should be in smooth communication with at least the opening 221. This allows dirt in the dirty water chamber 212 to flow smoothly from the opening of the dirty water chamber 212 to the opening 221 and out of the opening 221, reducing the possibility of dirt clogging the connection between the opening of the dirty water chamber 212 and the opening 221.
[0075] Furthermore, a handle 222 may be connected to the outer surface of the barrel body 22, the handle 222 being close to the top of the barrel body 22 and being located on the side of the clean water chamber 211 away from the sewage chamber 212. In this way, the user can grasp the handle 222 and tilt the barrel body 22 toward the sewage chamber 212 to pour out the dirt in the sewage chamber 212. At the same time, the probability of dirt adhering to the side wall of the clean water chamber 211 is reduced, and the dirt is also reduced from being stuck at the angle where the flexible member 60 and the barrel body 22 are connected, thereby reducing dirt residue.
[0076] Furthermore, a negative pressure port 231 is provided on the barrel cover 23. When the storage barrel 20 is connected to the housing 10 via the mounting surface 12, one end of the negative pressure port 231 communicates with the air inlet of the negative pressure device 16, and the other end of the negative pressure port 231 communicates with the sewage chamber 212. The other end of the negative pressure port 231 is located directly above the support member 50. As such, when the negative pressure device 16 draws air from the sewage chamber 212 through the negative pressure port 231, the support member 50 can change the direction of the airflow formed by the negative pressure device 16 within the sewage chamber 212, thereby increasing the probability that dirt flowing along this airflow direction will collide with the flexible member 60. Consequently, when the dirt collides with the flexible member 60, the flexible member 60 can cause the dirt to settle there and settle within the sewage chamber 212, preventing the dirt within the sewage chamber 212 from being sucked out by the negative pressure device 16 through the negative pressure port 231.
[0077] In actual use, when the storage bucket 20 is connected to the housing 10 via the mounting surface 12, a preset distance d exists between the negative pressure port 231 and the support member 50. Referring to FIG7 , this preset distance d should meet the following requirements: 40 mm ≥ d ≥ 10 mm. This prevents the preset distance d from being too large, thereby preventing the negative pressure device 16 from generating negative pressure within the sewage chamber 212, and preventing the preset distance d from being too small, thereby preventing the negative pressure device 16 from generating negative pressure within the sewage chamber 212. Preferably, the preset distance d is 20 mm.
[0078] In a feasible embodiment, as shown in FIG7 , in order to enable the clean water in the clean water chamber 211 to flow to the cleaning component 15 to participate in the cleaning operation, a water outlet 223 should be further provided on the barrel body 22, and the water outlet 223 is connected to the clean water chamber 211, so that the clean water in the clean water chamber 211 flows out through the water outlet 223 and flows to the cleaning component 15. The water outlet 223 can be provided at the bottom of the barrel body 22, or on the side wall of the barrel body 22.
[0079] Taking into account that the clean water chamber 211 is usually located above the cleaning component 15, this embodiment preferably adopts the water outlet 223 to be opened at the bottom of the barrel body 22. In this way, the pipeline connected between the water outlet 223 and the cleaning component 15 can connect the cleaning component 15 and the water outlet 223 in a straight up and down manner, reducing the bending area of the pipeline, making the pipeline layout more reasonable, reducing flow resistance, and ensuring that clean water can flow smoothly from the clean water chamber 211 to the cleaning component 15.
[0080] Regarding the specific connection method between the flexible member 60 and the barrel body 22, in one feasible embodiment, please refer to Figures 11 and 13. The cleaning device also includes a ring frame 70. One side of the ring frame 70 is connected to the flexible member 60, and the other side of the ring frame 70 is connected to the support member 50, the bottom of the barrel body 22, and the side wall of the barrel body 22. It should be pointed out that the ring frame 70 is a hard structure. The flexible member 60 is first connected to one side of the ring frame 70 to form a whole. It is equivalent to the ring frame 70 supporting the edge of the flexible member 60, so that the ring frame 70 serves as a hard connection part of the flexible member 60, and then the whole is connected to the support member 50, the bottom of the barrel body 22, and the side wall of the barrel body 22 through the hard connection part. In this way, the problem that the flexible member 60 is too soft to be directly connected to the barrel body 22 and the support member 50 can be solved, and production operations are facilitated. In practical applications, the flexible member 60 and the annular frame 70 can be formed by two-color injection molding and secondary injection molding, or connected by hot melting or gluing, which is not specifically limited here.
[0081] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the connection of the annular frame 70 with the barrel body 22 and the support member 50, please refer to Figures 13 and 14. In a feasible embodiment, the cleaning device may further include a docking frame 80. The docking frame 80 is a continuous annular structure. One side of the docking frame 80 is connected to the support member 50, the bottom of the barrel body 22 and the side wall of the barrel body 22. An annular protrusion 81 is provided on the other side of the docking frame 80. Correspondingly, an annular groove 71 is provided on the other side of the annular frame 70. The outer contour of the annular protrusion 81 is adapted to the annular groove 71, so that the annular frame 70 and the docking frame 80 are mutually matched and positioned and connected through the annular groove 71 and the annular protrusion 81.
[0082] In this embodiment, for ease of understanding, the component formed by connecting the flexible member 60 and the annular frame 70 together is defined as the cover body component. The cover body component can be first positioned and connected to the docking frame 80 by interlocking the annular groove 71 and the annular protrusion 81, and then fixedly connected through thermal induction, dispensing glue, or other methods. This facilitates the connection of the annular frame 70 to the barrel body 22 and the support member 50, thereby improving production efficiency. In actual applications, the barrel body 22, support member 50, and docking frame 80 can be integrally injection molded.
[0083] In a feasible embodiment, please refer to Figures 11, 13 and 14 together. The barrel body 22 may include a first half barrel body 224 and a second half barrel body 225. In this way, when the first half barrel body 224 and the second half barrel body 225 are connected, the first half barrel body 224 and the second half barrel body 225 may surround each other to form a barrel structure. The first half barrel body 224 and the second half barrel body 225 should be regarded as a structure formed by dividing a barrel body into two halves along a vertical plane, that is, the first half barrel body 224 and the second half barrel body 225 respectively include a bottom and a side wall. In this way, the flexible member 60 can be connected to the first half barrel body 224 separately through the annular frame 70 and the docking frame 80 to be fixed on the barrel body 22. In this way, the flexible member 60 and the annular frame 70 can be first installed on the first half barrel body 224, and then the first half barrel body 224 connected with the flexible member 60 and the annular frame 70 can be connected to the second half barrel body 225 to form the barrel body 22. In this way, there is sufficient operating space to connect the flexible member 60 and the annular frame 70 to the barrel body 22, which facilitates the installation operation and avoids the problem that the space inside the barrel body 22 is too narrow and it is impossible or inconvenient to install the above-mentioned annular frame 70 and flexible member 60. In actual use, the first half barrel body 224, the second half barrel body 225, the annular frame 70 and the docking frame 80 can be made of materials such as acrylonitrile-styrene resin, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene plastic, or hard plastic.
[0084] In this embodiment, as shown in FIG8 , the heat-conducting component 30 can be separately connected to the second half barrel body 225 and thus fixed to the barrel body 22. Specifically, the heat-conducting component 30 can be integrally formed with the second half barrel body 225 by an insert injection molding process, wherein the horizontal plate portion 3112 can serve as a portion of the bottom of the second half barrel body 225, the vertical plate portion 3113 can serve as a portion of the sidewall of the second half barrel body 225, the sewage suction pipe 312 is located inside the second half barrel body 225, and the heat-conducting member 32 is located outside the second half barrel body 225.
[0085] To facilitate the connection between the first half barrel 224 and the second half barrel 225, in one feasible embodiment, please refer to Figures 13 and 14 again. For the convenience of description, the surface where the first half barrel 224 and the second half barrel 225 are connected is defined as a first docking surface 2241, and the surface where the second half barrel 225 and the first half barrel 224 are connected is defined as a second docking surface 2251. The first docking surface 2241 and the second docking surface 2251 are respectively formed with a positioning block 22411 and a positioning groove 22511 that cooperate with each other, so that the first half barrel 224 and the second half barrel 225 are positioned and connected by the positioning block 22411 and the positioning groove 22511, thereby facilitating the alignment operation when the first half barrel 224 and the second half barrel 225 are connected, thereby facilitating the connection between the first half barrel 224 and the second half barrel 225.
[0086] Based on the same inventive concept, the present application also provides a storage structure, which is applied to a cleaning device with a heat source. The storage structure may include a storage barrel 20 and a heat-conducting component 30. The storage barrel 20 has a accommodating cavity 21, which is at least used to accommodate liquid. The heat-conducting component 30 is connected to the storage barrel 20, and the heat-conducting component 30 is at least partially located in the accommodating cavity 21, and the heat-conducting component 30 is in contact with the heat source to transfer the heat released by the heat source to the accommodating cavity 21 through the heat-conducting component 30. Among them, the heat source can be a component in the cleaning equipment that easily releases heat when working, such as a battery, a motor, and a water pump, and the present application does not make specific restrictions on this.
[0087] Furthermore, the heat-conducting component 30 includes a heat sink 31 and a heat transfer member 32.

During operation, dirt is sucked in through the sewage inlet pipe 14 and enters the sewage suction pipe 312 of the barrel body 22 . This shorter path allows the dirt to quickly enter the sewage chamber 212 , improving suction efficiency. Furthermore, the lack of sharp bends prevents dirt from stagnation. The water outlet 223 is also located at the bottom of the barrel body 22 , allowing clean water to flow quickly and smoothly to the cleaning component 15 .
[0097] It should be noted that, regarding the specific structures of the storage bucket 20, the support member 50, the flexible member 60 and the annular frame 70 and their connection relationship, reference can be made to the contents in the above embodiment, which will not be repeated here.

[0099] It should be noted that, regarding the specific structures of the storage bucket 20, the support member 50 and the flexible member 60 and their connection relationship, reference can be made to the contents in the above embodiment, which will not be repeated here.
[0100] Based on the same inventive concept, the present application also provides a method for manufacturing a storage structure. The storage structure may include at least a barrel body 22, a flexible member 60, and an annular frame 70. The barrel body 22 is composed of a first half barrel body 224 and a second half barrel body 225. The flexible member 60 is connected to the inner surface of the first half barrel body 224 via the annular frame 70. The manufacturing method includes:
[0101] The edge of the flexible member 60 is connected to the annular frame 70 to form a cover part.
[0102] The cover member is connected to the first half barrel 224 by connecting the annular frame 70 in the cover member to the inner surface of the first half barrel 224;

In addition, the present application connects the cover member to the first half barrel 224 first, and then connects the first half barrel 224 to the second half barrel 225. Since the side of the first half barrel 224 is an open structure, the first half barrel 224 has sufficient operating space to facilitate the connection of the cover member to the first half barrel 224, facilitating the installation operation, thereby avoiding the problem that the space inside the barrel body 22 composed of the first half barrel 224 and the second half barrel 225 is too narrow, making it impossible or inconvenient to install the cover member.
[0106] The following is a detailed description based on specific application scenarios, taking the cleaning equipment as a floor scrubber as an example.
[0107] Application Scenario 1
[0108] Xiao Ming, a cleaner at a shopping mall, uses a floor scrubber every day. However, because the battery pack in the scrubber doesn't dissipate heat effectively, he constantly feels overheated and uncomfortable. To solve this problem, he began searching for a solution.
[0109] After some research and consultation, Xiao Ming learned about a new type of storage bucket that could help solve the problem of battery pack heat dissipation. He decided to purchase this storage bucket and install it on his floor scrubber.
[0110] While using the new storage bucket, Xiao Ming discovered that a heat-conducting component was added to the storage bucket, and the heat-conducting component was also in contact with the battery pack, so that the heat released by the battery pack could be transferred to the storage bucket through the heat-conducting component, thereby using the sewage stored in the storage bucket to effectively dissipate the heat released by the battery pack. At the same time, since part of the heat-conducting component is also used as a sewage suction pipe, when the sewage chamber absorbs dirt, the airflow and sewage flowing through the sewage suction pipe can help take away the heat from the heat-conducting component, thereby accelerating the heat dissipation effect. After cleaning, Xiao Ming touched the position corresponding to the battery pack on the body and found that the temperature of the battery pack had dropped significantly. He was very satisfied.
[0111] Since then, Xiao Ming has felt more comfortable using the floor scrubber and can complete cleaning tasks more efficiently. He has also introduced this new storage bucket to other colleagues so that more people can benefit from its excellent performance.
[0112] Application scenario 2:
[0113] Xiao Ming works for a cleaning company and uses a floor scrubber to clean the floors of his office building every day. In the past, he had to disassemble the clean water tank and the wastewater tank separately to fill the clean water and remove the wastewater, which was not only cumbersome but also difficult to disassemble and assemble. However, the company recently introduced a new floor scrubber that is quick and easy to use.
[0114] One day, Xiao Ming was using a new floor scrubber to clean the floor of his office building. He discovered that the new floor scrubber integrated the original clean water tank and sewage tank into one structure. This way, Xiao Ming only needed to remove a storage bucket from the floor scrubber to inject clean water and discharge sewage at the same time, which was simple and convenient to operate.
[0115] When filling the tank with clean water, Xiao Ming discovered that the flexible member in the storage bucket could deform toward the wastewater chamber, thereby expanding the chamber's usable volume and accommodating more clean water. Furthermore, as the clean water in the clean water chamber decreases and the wastewater in the wastewater chamber increases, the flexible member further deforms toward the clean water chamber, expanding the chamber's usable volume and accommodating even more wastewater.
[0116] After cleaning, Xiao Ming found that compared with before, he had to add clean water and dump sewage at least twice less. Sure enough, the new floor scrubber is not only simple and convenient to operate, but also does not require frequent addition of clean water and dumping of sewage, and work efficiency has also been improved.
[0117] Application scenario three:
[0118] When preparing to use the new floor scrubber, Xiao Ming placed the storage bucket upright on the ground and opened the lid. He discovered that the water inlet of the clean water chamber was located at the top of the chamber, facing the open end of the bucket. To fill the chamber with clean water, Xiao Ming inserted the water injection pipe vertically through the open end and the water inlet into the chamber.
[0119] After using it, Xiao Ming discovered that compared to the original method of filling the clean water bucket, which required tilting the bucket to pour water into the water inlet on the side of the bucket, the new floor scrubber's clean water chamber is more convenient and quick, and there is no need to tilt the bucket body, which prevents sewage from flowing out of the sewage chamber. At the same time, because the clean water chamber is filled with water while the bucket body is in a vertical position and the water inlet is located at the top of the clean water chamber, the clean water in the clean water chamber can be poured all the way to the top of the clean water chamber, increasing the clean water chamber's capacity for clean water. The gravity of the clean water itself can be used to reduce the possibility of clean water overflowing from the water inlet, ensuring the sealing performance of the clean water chamber.
[0120] After filling the clean water chamber with clean water, Xiao Ming installed the storage bucket on the machine body and began to scrub the work area. As the cleaning process progressed, sewage in the sewage chamber continued to accumulate. When the sewage in the sewage chamber reached the sewage warning level, the floor scrubber sounded an alarm, prompting Xiao Ming to dump the sewage.
[0121] Xiao Ming removed the storage bucket from the main body again, and after opening the lid, he discovered that the handle on the side of the bucket was also cleverly positioned. The handle was located on the side of the clean water chamber away from the sewage chamber. In this way, Xiao Ming only needed to hold the handle and apply force on the handle to tilt the bucket body toward the sewage chamber to pour the sewage in the sewage chamber from the open opening. And because the handle was located on the side of the clean water chamber away from the sewage chamber, the clean water chamber and the pouring direction were on opposite sides of the sewage chamber. This also prevented the dirt poured from the sewage chamber from touching the side walls of the clean water chamber, thereby preventing dirt from remaining on the side walls and water inlet of the clean water chamber. In this way, not only was the cleanliness of the outer wall of the clean water chamber guaranteed, but it also prevented Xiao Ming from wiping the edge of the clean water inlet when replenishing clean water, reducing labor intensity.
[0122] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
