When the external force disappears, the reset member drives the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly to move closer to each other, so that at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly is loosely fitted with the wiping member.

The operation steps are relatively simple, which improves the disassembly efficiency of the wiping member; and the user does not need to squeeze the dirty wiping member to apply force to the first bracket assembly and / or the second bracket assembly, so the user's experience of disassembling the dirty wiping member is also improved.
[0010] In a fourth aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a cleaning device, which includes a body and a cleaning module, and the cleaning module is installed on the body. The cleaning module includes a first bracket assembly, a second bracket assembly, a reset member and a wiping member. The second bracket assembly is connected to the first bracket assembly. The reset member is arranged between the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly. The wiping member is installed on the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly. Wherein, when the first bracket assembly and / or the second bracket assembly are subjected to external force, the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly can move away from each other so that both the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly can fit tightly with the wiping member; when the external force disappears, the reset member drives the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly closer to each other, so that at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly can fit loosely with the wiping member.
[0011] In the cleaning device of the embodiment of the present application, the first bracket assembly is connected to the second bracket assembly, the reset member is arranged between the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly, the wiping member is installed on the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly, and when the external force disappears, the reset member drives the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly to approach each other, so that at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly is loosely fitted with the wiping member. Therefore, compared with the cleaning module in the related art, when the wiping member needs to be replaced, the user does not need to apply force to the first bracket assembly and / or the second bracket assembly to bring the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly close to each other, so as to achieve the disassembly of the wiping member. The operation steps are relatively simple, which improves the disassembly efficiency of the wiping member; and the user does not need to squeeze the dirty wiping member to apply force to the first bracket assembly and / or the second bracket assembly, so the user's experience of disassembling the dirty wiping member is also improved.
[0012] In a fifth aspect, embodiments of the present application provide a cleaning device comprising a body and a cleaning module. The body includes a force-applying member, and the cleaning module is detachably mounted to the body and comprises: a first bracket assembly, a second bracket assembly, and a wiping member, wherein the second bracket assembly is connected to the first bracket assembly; and the wiping member is mounted to the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly. During installation of the cleaning module to the body, the force-applying member engages with at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly to keep the first and second bracket assemblies away from each other and to enable each to tightly engage with the wiping member.
[0013] In the cleaning device of the embodiment of the present application, the body includes a force-applying member, which is used to cooperate with at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly to move the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly away from each other. That is, during the installation of the cleaning module on the body, the force-applying member can apply force to at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly to move the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly away from each other, thereby allowing the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly to tightly fit with the wiping member. As a result, during the installation and positioning of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly by the user, the force-applying member on the body can be used to separate the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly. Prior to this, the user does not need to perform additional operations to separate the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly first, so that the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly are tightly fitted with the wiping member, and then the cleaning module is installed on the body, thereby simplifying the operation steps and improving the assembly efficiency of the cleaning module.
[0014] In a sixth aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a cleaning device, comprising a body and a cleaning module, wherein the cleaning module is detachably mounted on the body and comprises: a first bracket assembly, a second bracket assembly, and a wiping member, wherein the second bracket assembly is connected to the first bracket assembly, and the wiping member is mounted on the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly. When the cleaning module is mounted on the body and the body is engaged with at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly, the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly are spaced apart from each other so that both the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly can be tightly engaged with the wiping member; when the cleaning module is removed from the body and the body is disengaged from at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly, the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly can be moved closer to each other so that at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly can be loosely engaged with the wiping member.
[0015] In the cleaning device of the embodiment of the present application, when the cleaning module is installed on the body and the body cooperates with at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly, the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly are separated from each other so that both the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly can be tightly fitted with the wiping member. Therefore, compared with the traditional cleaning module, the user can directly install the cleaning module on the body without performing corresponding operations on the cleaning module, which simplifies the operation steps and improves the assembly efficiency of the cleaning module. Furthermore, when the body is disengaged from at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly, the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly can be brought close to each other so that at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly is loosely fitted with the wiping member. Thus, compared to the cleaning module in the related art, when the wiping member needs to be replaced, the user does not need to apply force to the first bracket assembly and / or the second bracket assembly to bring the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly close to each other, so as to achieve the disassembly of the wiping member. The operation steps are relatively simple, which improves the disassembly efficiency of the wiping member. Moreover, the user does not need to squeeze the dirty wiping member to apply force to the first bracket assembly and / or the second bracket assembly, so the user's experience of disassembling the dirty wiping member is also improved.
[0016] In a seventh aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a base station for use with the cleaning device described above. The base station includes a docking position for accommodating the cleaning device.
[0017] In an eighth aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a cleaning system, comprising the cleaning device described above and a base station used in conjunction with the cleaning device. The base station comprises a parking space for accommodating the cleaning device.

[0039] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the specific embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following description sets forth many specific details to facilitate a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways than those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the scope of the present application. Therefore, the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0040] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" and the like indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.
[0041] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of the technical features being referred to. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. Throughout the description of this application, "plurality" means at least two, for example, two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined.
[0042] In this application, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," "connect," "fixed," etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; mechanical connection or electrical connection; direct connection or indirect connection through an intermediate medium; internal communication between two elements or interaction between two elements, unless otherwise specified. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on specific circumstances.

When a first feature is "below," "below," or "below" a second feature, it may mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is at a lower level than the second feature.
[0044] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be an intermediate element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only implementation methods.
[0045] A cleaning device is an intelligent device that can clean a surface. It uses a mop-wiping module mounted on the cleaning device to wipe the surface. Typically, the mop-wiping module includes a bracket and a mop-wiping member mounted on the bracket. The bracket is located at the rear of the cleaning device. When the cleaning device needs to wipe the surface, the mop-wiping member comes into contact with the surface to be cleaned. If the mop-wiping member becomes damaged, hardened, or loses its cleaning ability, the user needs to replace it to ensure proper function of the cleaning device.
[0046] The inventors noticed that in the related art, when users disassemble and replace the mop, they need to first remove the bracket from the body and then remove the mop from the bracket. The operation steps are relatively cumbersome, which affects the loading and unloading efficiency of the mop.
[0047] For example, for the mopping module including a crawler-type cleaning member, when the mopping module is installed on the fuselage, the mopping member is in a tensioned state on the bracket. At this time, there is no gap or a small gap between the mopping member and the bracket, and the mopping member cannot be directly removed from the bracket. Therefore, after the user removes the bracket from the fuselage, the user also needs to press the bracket by squeezing the dirty mopping member to make the mopping member in a relaxed state on the bracket. At this time, the gap between the mopping member and the bracket is large, so that the mopping member can be removed from one end of the bracket. The whole process is relatively cumbersome, the loading and unloading efficiency is low, and squeezing the dirty mopping member will also affect the user's disassembly experience.
[0048] Therefore, in order to solve the above technical problems, the inventors, after in-depth research, designed a cleaning module with a relatively simple structure, including a bracket module and a wiping member installed on the bracket module, so that when the external force disappears, the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly of the bracket module can be close to each other, so that at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly can loosely fit with the wiping member.
[0049] In this bracket module, when the mop and wiping member needs to be replaced, the user does not need to apply force to the first bracket assembly and / or the second bracket assembly of the bracket module to bring the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly close to each other, so that the mop and wiping member can be disassembled. The operation steps are relatively simple, which improves the disassembly efficiency of the mop and wiping member; and the user does not need to squeeze the dirty mop and wiping member to apply force to the first bracket assembly and / or the second bracket assembly, so the user's experience in disassembling the dirty mop and wiping member is also improved.
[0050] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 , a cleaning module 100 according to certain embodiments of the present application includes a support module 110 and a wiping member 120 mounted on the support module 110. The support module 110 includes a first support assembly 10, a second support assembly 20, and a reset member 30. The second support assembly 20 is connected to the first support assembly 10. The reset member 30 is disposed between the first support assembly 10 and the second support assembly 20. The wiping member 120 is mounted on the first support assembly 10 and the second support assembly 20. When an external force is applied to the first support assembly 10 and / or the second support assembly 20, the first support assembly 10 and the second support assembly 20 can move away from each other, allowing both the first support assembly 10 and the second support assembly 20 to tightly fit with the wiping member 120. When the external force is removed, the reset member 30 moves the first support assembly 10 and the second support assembly 20 closer together, allowing at least one of the first support assembly 10 and the second support assembly 20 to loosen the fit with the wiping member 120.
[0051] In conjunction with Figure 12, the cleaning module 100 is a device that can assist the cleaning device 1000 in achieving a wiping function (such as wet mopping or dry mopping, etc.). In an embodiment of the present application, the cleaning module 100 is arranged on the body 200 of the cleaning device 1000 and is located on the side of the body 200 facing the surface to be cleaned. Thus, when the cleaning device 1000 is in a normal cleaning state, the cleaning module 100 can be in close contact with the surface to be cleaned to achieve a wiping function. Specifically, when the cleaning device 1000 is in a normal cleaning state, the mopping member 120 of the cleaning module 100 can be in close contact with the surface to be cleaned to achieve a wiping function. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the mopping member 120 includes but is not limited to a disposable electrostatic mop, a disposable wet mop, or a reusable fabric mop. In one example, the surface to be cleaned can be the floor inside a building. In another example, the surface to be cleaned can also be the surface of other objects that need to be cleaned, such as a wall, glass, or a bed.
[0052] For example, the cleaning module 100 can be a crawler-type cleaning module. Specifically, the wiping member 120 can be mounted on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. When the crawler-type cleaning module is installed on the body 200 of the cleaning device 1000, the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 can drive the wiping member 120 to rotate relative to the surface to be cleaned to clean the surface.
[0053] The cleaning device 1000 may further include a brush sweeping module 400, which is disposed on the body 200 and is used to clean the surface to be cleaned. The brush sweeping module 400 may include a roller brush component 410 and a side brush component 420. When the cleaning device 1000 uses the brush sweeping module 400 to sweep the surface to be cleaned, the side brush component 420 sweeps dust and other dirt from the outside to the middle area, and the roller brush component 410 continues to sweep the dirt in the middle area to a dust collection device (not shown). Along the travel direction X of the cleaning device 1000, the side brush component 420 is located on the front side of the body 200, the roller brush component 410 is located in the middle of the body 200, and the cleaning module 100 is located on the rear side of the body 200. As a result, the cleaning device 1000 can achieve both a sweeping function and a wiping function, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 1000. It should be noted that the directions described in the embodiments of this application are defined with the drive wheels of the cleaning device 1000 supported on the surface to be cleaned. "Front" and "rear" are relative to the travel direction X of the cleaning device 1000. When the cleaning device 1000 moves forward along the travel direction X, the front end of the body 200 closest to the travel direction is the front side of the body 200, and the rear end of the body 200 closest to the travel direction is the rear side of the body 200.
[0054] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 , in some embodiments, when the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 are not subjected to external forces, the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 can be in an initial state (as shown in Figure 3 ). In this state, the gap between the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 is small or even non-existent, and at least one of the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 can be loosely engaged with the wiping member 120. When the first and / or second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 are subjected to external forces, the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 can be separated from each other, so that the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 transition from the initial state to a spaced state (as shown in Figure 2 ). Compared to the initial state, the gap between the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 in the spaced state is larger. That is, the structure formed by the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 is larger in the direction from the first and second bracket assemblies 10 to the second bracket assemblies 20. In this state, both the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 can be tightly engaged with the wiping member 120. In summary, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 may move away from each other when the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 transition from an initial state to a spaced state, i.e., the gap between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 gradually increases under the action of an external force. The first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 may move closer to each other when the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 transition from a spaced state to the initial state, i.e., the gap between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 gradually decreases.
[0055] In one example, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 may move away from each other in the following manner: the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 both move in directions away from each other, that is, the first bracket assembly 10 moves in a direction from the second bracket assembly 20 to the first bracket assembly 10, and at the same time, the second bracket assembly 20 moves in a direction from the first bracket assembly 10 to the second bracket assembly 20. It is understood that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 may move closer to each other in the following manner: the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 both move in a direction towards each other, that is, the first bracket assembly 10 moves in a direction from the first bracket assembly 10 to the second bracket assembly 20, and at the same time, the second bracket assembly 20 moves in a direction from the second bracket assembly 20 to the first bracket assembly 10.
[0056] In another example, the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 can be moved away from each other by having one of the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 fixed and the other moving away from the other. For example, the first bracket assembly 10 can be fixed and the second bracket assembly 20 can move in a direction from the first bracket assembly 10 to the second bracket assembly 20; or, the second bracket assembly 20 can be fixed and the first bracket assembly 10 can move in a direction from the second bracket assembly 20 to the first bracket assembly 10. It will be appreciated that the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 can be moved toward each other by having one of the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 fixed and the other moving toward the other. For example, the first bracket assembly 10 can be fixed and the second bracket assembly 20 can move in a direction from the second bracket assembly 20 to the first bracket assembly 10; or, the second bracket assembly 20 can be fixed and the first bracket assembly 10 can move in a direction from the first bracket assembly 10 to the second bracket assembly 20.
[0057] It is understood that when the external force acting on the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 disappears, the reset member 30 can drive the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 closer together, so that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can return to the initial state from the spaced state. Furthermore, when at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 is loosely engaged with the wiping member 120, the wiping member 120 can be attached and detached from the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, thereby facilitating removal for cleaning or replacement when the wiping member 120 becomes soiled, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 1000. When both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are tightly engaged with the wiping member 120, and the cleaning module 100 is mounted on the body 200, the cleaning device 1000 can perform its wiping function.
[0058] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the external force applied to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 may be: the force applied to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 by an external mechanical structure; or the force applied to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 by a user.
[0059] In certain embodiments, both the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 can be tightly fitted with the wiping member 120. When the wiping member 120 is mounted on the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20, the wiping member 120 is in a tensioned state, i.e., the clearance between the wiping member 120 and the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 is very small, or even zero. In this case, the first and / or second bracket assemblies 10 and 20 can drive the wiping member 120 to rotate relative to the cleaning surface, enabling the cleaning device 1000 to perform its wiping function. Furthermore, the wiping member 120 is difficult or even impossible to remove from the first and second bracket assemblies 10 and 20, thereby preventing the wiping member 120 from falling off during operation of the cleaning module 100, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning module 100. At least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 may be loosely fitted with the wiping member 120. When the wiping member 120 is disposed on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, the wiping member 120 is in a relaxed state, that is, a large fitting clearance exists between the wiping member 120 and the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20. In this case, the wiping member 120 can be easily removed from the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, thereby facilitating the installation and removal of the wiping member 120 on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20.
[0060] In the cleaning module 100 of the embodiment of the present application, the first bracket assembly 10 is connected to the second bracket assembly 20, the reset member 30 connects the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, and the wiping member 120 is installed on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. When the external force disappears, the reset member 30 drives the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to move closer to each other, so that at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 is loosely fitted with the wiping member 120. Therefore, compared with cleaning modules in the related art, when the wiping member 120 needs to be replaced, the user does not need to apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 to move the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 closer together to achieve detachment of the wiping member 120. The operation steps are relatively simple, and the removal efficiency of the wiping member 120 is improved. In addition, the user does not need to squeeze the dirty wiping member 120 to apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20, so the user experience of removing the dirty wiping member 120 is also improved.
[0061] The support module 110 and the cleaning module 100 are further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0062] Please refer to Figures 2 and 3. In some embodiments, the reset member 30 is a component that can undergo elastic deformation in the direction from the first bracket assembly 10 to the second bracket assembly 20, and / or in the direction from the second bracket assembly 20 to the first bracket assembly 10 under the action of an external force. When the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 is subjected to an external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other so that the reset member 30 undergoes elastic deformation. When the external force disappears, the elastic deformation of the reset member 30 disappears, so that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move closer to each other.
[0063] Specifically, in some embodiments, when an external force acts on the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 to move the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 away from each other, the external force can also act on the reset member 30 through the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20, so that the reset member 30 can undergo elastic deformation, thereby generating an elastic force, and the elastic force can be applied in reverse to the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, so that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 tend to approach each other; when the external force disappears, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can approach each other under the action of the elastic force of the reset member 30, thereby, the user does not need to apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 to move the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 close to each other, and can achieve the disassembly and replacement of the wiping member 120, thereby reducing the user's operating burden, simplifying the disassembly steps of the wiping member 120, and improving the disassembly efficiency of the wiping member 120.
[0064] It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, after the external force disappears and the reset member 30 brings the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 closer together, the reset member 30 can still elastically deform, that is, the reset member 30 can still generate an elastic force on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. The elastic deformation of the reset member 30 upon the disappearance of the external force is less than the elastic deformation of the reset member 30 upon the external force disappearing, when the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 are moved away from each other. In other words, the elastic force applied by the reset member 30 to the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 upon the disappearance of the external force is less than the elastic force applied by the reset member 30 to the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 upon the external force disappearing. For example, if the reset member 30 is a tension spring, the tension spring can remain in a stretched state, and the stretched length of the tension spring upon the disappearance of the external force is less than the stretched length of the tension spring upon the external force disappearing, when the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 are moved away from each other. The embodiment of the present application is described by taking the disappearance of the elastic deformation of the restoring member 30 as an example.
[0065] Please refer to Figure 4. In some embodiments, the reset member 30 is a compression spring. When the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 is subjected to external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other so that the compression spring is compressed (as shown in Figure a in Figure 4); when the external force disappears, the compression spring returns to its natural state (as shown in Figure b in Figure 4).
[0066] Specifically, in some embodiments, the compression spring includes a first end and a second end opposite to each other, the first end of the compression spring being connected to the first bracket assembly 10, and the second end of the compression spring being connected to the second bracket assembly 20. When the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are not subjected to an external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are in an initial state. In this state, the compression spring is in a natural state, that is, the compression spring is neither compressed nor stretched. When the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 is subjected to external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other. In this case, the first end of the compression spring moves in a direction away from the second bracket assembly 20, and the second end of the compression spring moves in a direction away from the first bracket assembly 10, so that the compression spring is compressed and generates an elastic force; when the external force acting on the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 disappears, the first end of the compression spring moves in a direction close to the second bracket assembly 20, and the second end of the compression spring moves in a direction close to the first bracket assembly 10, so that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can move closer to each other under the action of the elastic force, and the compression spring can return to a natural state from a compressed state.
[0067] Please refer to Figure 5. In other embodiments, the reset member 30 is a tension spring. When the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 is subjected to external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other (as shown in Figure a in Figure 5) so that the tension spring is stretched; when the external force disappears, the tension spring returns to its natural state (as shown in Figure b in Figure 5).
[0068] Specifically, in some embodiments, the tension spring includes a first end and a second end opposite to each other, the first end of the tension spring being connected to the first bracket assembly 10, and the second end of the tension spring being connected to the second bracket assembly 20. When the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are not subjected to an external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are in an initial state. In this state, the tension spring is in a natural state, that is, the tension spring is neither compressed nor stretched. When the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 is subjected to external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other. In this case, the first end of the tension spring moves in a direction away from the second bracket assembly 20, and the second end of the tension spring moves in a direction away from the first bracket assembly 10, so that the tension spring is stretched to generate an elastic force; when the external force acting on the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 disappears, the first end of the tension spring moves in a direction close to the second bracket assembly 20, and the second end of the tension spring moves in a direction close to the first bracket assembly 10, so that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can move closer to each other under the action of the elastic force, and the tension spring can return to a natural state from the stretched state.
[0069] In yet other embodiments, the reset member 30 is a torsion spring. The torsion spring includes a first end and a second end. The first end of the torsion spring is connected to the first bracket assembly 10, and the second end of the torsion spring is connected to the second bracket assembly 20. When an external force is applied to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other, causing the torsion spring to twist. When the external force is removed, the torsion spring returns to its natural state.
[0070] Specifically, referring to FIG6 , in one example, when the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are not subjected to external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are in an initial state. In this case, the torsion spring is in a natural state, that is, the torsion spring is in an untwisted state. The angle between the first end of the torsion spring and the first bracket assembly 10 is a first preset angle, and the angle between the second end of the torsion spring and the second bracket assembly 20 is a second preset angle (as shown in FIG6 b). The first preset angle and the second preset angle can be the same or different. When the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 are subjected to external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other. In this case, the angle between the first end of the torsion spring and the first bracket assembly 10 is greater than the first preset angle, and the angle between the second end of the torsion spring and the second bracket assembly 20 is greater than the second preset angle, thereby causing the torsion spring to twist and generate an elastic force (as shown in FIG6 a). When the external force acting on the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 disappears, the angle between the first end of the torsion spring and the first bracket assembly 10 gradually decreases, and the angle between the second end of the torsion spring and the second bracket assembly 20 gradually decreases, so that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can approach each other under the action of the elastic force, and the torsion spring can return to its natural state from the twisted state (as shown in Figure 6 b). It can be understood that the angle between the first end and the second end of the torsion spring is not limited to that shown in Figure 6, and can also be other angles, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.
[0071] Please refer to Figure 7. In some other embodiments, the reset member 30 is made of an elastic material. When the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 is subjected to an external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other (as shown in Figure a in Figure 7) so that the reset member 30 produces elastic deformation; when the external force disappears, the reset member 30 returns to a natural state (as shown in Figure a in Figure 7).
[0072] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are not subjected to external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are in an initial state, in which case the reset member 30 is in a natural state. When the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 are subjected to external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other, in which case the reset member 30 undergoes elastic deformation and generates an elastic force; when the external force acting on the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 disappears, the elastic force can act on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to move the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 closer to each other, and the elastic deformation of the reset member 30 disappears. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the elastic material includes but is not limited to composite materials such as rubber, silicone, glass fiber reinforced plastic, or spring steel.
[0073] It can be understood that when the reset member 30 is made of elastic material, the connection method between the reset member 30 and the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can refer to the implementation methods of the tension spring, compression spring, and torsion spring described above, and will not be repeated here.
[0074] Referring to Figures 1 and 9 , in some embodiments, the reset member 30 includes a magnetic unit 31 and a magnetic unit 33. One of the magnetic unit 31 and the magnetic unit 33 is disposed on the first bracket assembly 10, and the other is disposed on the second bracket assembly 20. The magnetic unit 31 is configured to cooperate with the magnetic unit 33 and generate a magnetic attraction force. When the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 is subjected to an external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other, causing the magnetic unit 31 and the magnetic unit 33 to move away from each other. When the external force disappears, the magnetic attraction force causes the magnetic unit 31 and the magnetic unit 33 to move toward each other, thereby bringing the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 closer together. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the magnetic unit 31 can be made of a magnetic material such as iron, cobalt, nickel, ferrite, or rare earth permanent magnet; and correspondingly, the magnetic unit 33 can be made of a magnetic material such as iron, cobalt, nickel, ferrite, or rare earth permanent magnet. In the embodiment of the present application, the magnetic unit 31 and the magnetic attraction unit 33 can cooperate (eg, attract each other) to generate a magnetic attraction force.
[0075] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are not subjected to external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are in an initial state, in which case the magnetic unit 31 and the magnetic unit 33 are in a mating state and have a magnetic attraction force. When the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 are subjected to external force, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are separated from each other. In this case, the magnetic unit 31 and the magnetic unit 33 can also be separated from each other, and the magnetic unit 31 and the magnetic unit 33 are still in a mating state and have a magnetic attraction force; when the external force acting on the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 disappears, the magnetic attraction force can act on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, so that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are close to each other, and the magnetic unit 31 and the magnetic unit 33 are close to each other. It can be understood that when the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are far away from each other, the magnetic attraction force generated by the cooperation of the magnetic unit 31 and the magnetic unit 33 is smaller than the magnetic attraction force generated by the cooperation of the magnetic unit 31 and the magnetic unit 33 when the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are close to each other.
[0076] In some embodiments, the magnetic unit 31 is integrally formed with one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, and the magnetic unit 33 is integrally formed with the other of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. In other words, this can improve the structural strength between the magnetic unit 31 and one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, and improve the structural strength between the magnetic unit 33 and the other of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the cleaning module 100. In other embodiments, the magnetic unit 31 and one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can be connected together using a non-detachable connection method or a detachable connection method, and the magnetic unit 33 and the other of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can be connected together using a non-detachable connection method or a detachable connection method, wherein the non-detachable connection method includes but is not limited to bonding or welding, and the detachable connection method includes but is not limited to snap connection or threaded connection.
[0077] Referring to Figures 1, 2, and 8, in some embodiments, the first bracket assembly 10 includes a first bracket 11 and a first roller 13 rotatably mounted to the first bracket 11. The first roller 13 can cooperate with the wiping member 120. Specifically, in some embodiments, when the wiping member 120 is mounted on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, and both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are tightly coupled with the wiping member 120, the wiping member 120 can tightly mate with the first roller 13. As a result, when the cleaning device 1000 is in a normal cleaning state, the wiping member 120 can rotate relative to the surface to be cleaned on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, thereby enabling the cleaning module 100 to perform a wiping function. It should be noted that in some embodiments, when the wiping member 120 rotates relative to the surface to be cleaned, the first roller 13 can rotate with the wiping member 120, or the first roller 13 can be fixed relative to the wiping member 120.
[0078] Please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 14(b). In some embodiments, the first bracket 11 includes a first end 111 and a second end 113 relative to each other. The first end 111 of the first bracket 11 and / or the second end 113 of the first bracket 11 are provided with a protrusion 115, which is used for the user to lift the first bracket 11.
[0079] In the absence of the protruding member 115 on the first bracket 11, if the first bracket 11 is to be removed from the main body 200 (as shown in FIG12 ), the user needs to apply a force to the first bracket 11 via the first end 111 and / or the second end 113 of the first bracket 11 to move the first bracket 11 away from the main body 200. In other words, the force applied by the user can lift the first bracket 11 from the main body 200. However, because the direction of the force applied by the user directly to the first bracket 11 via the first end 111 and / or the second end 113 of the first bracket 11 is different from the direction of movement of the first bracket 11, the movement of the first bracket 11 depends solely on the force component (smaller than the force applied by the user) applied to the first bracket 11 via the first end 111 and / or the second end 113 of the first bracket 11. This results in a heavy workload for the user and affects the efficiency of disassembly of the cleaning module 100. In the embodiment of the present application, the protrusion 115 is arranged at the first end 111 of the first bracket 11 and / or the second end 113 of the first bracket 11. Therefore, the setting of the protrusion 115 can enable the user to better exert force when disassembling the first bracket 11, that is, the direction of the force applied by the user to the first bracket 11 through the protrusion 115 is roughly the same as the moving direction of the first bracket 11, thereby reducing the user's operating burden and ensuring the disassembly efficiency of the first bracket 11.
[0080] In addition, the material of the first bracket 11 includes, but is not limited to, metal materials or non-metallic materials, wherein metal materials include, but are not limited to, aluminum, iron, steel, or aluminum alloys, and non-metallic materials include, but are not limited to, plastics. In one example, the first bracket 11 can be made of a metal material, thereby increasing the structural strength of the first bracket 11, improving the load capacity that the first bracket 11 can withstand, preventing deformation and damage of the first bracket 11 during operation of the cleaning module 100, and improving the stability and reliability of the operation of the cleaning module 100. In another example, the first bracket 11 can be made of a non-metallic material, thereby reducing the weight of the first bracket 11, thereby facilitating the lightweighting of the first bracket assembly 10 and the cleaning module 100.
[0081] 1 , 2 , and 8 , in some embodiments, the first bracket assembly 10 may further include a connecting member 15. The connecting member 15 is disposed at the first end 111 of the first bracket 11 and / or the second end 113 of the first bracket 11. The connecting member 15 includes a connecting piece 151, which is used to secure or release the first bracket 11 from being mounted.
[0082] Specifically, referring to FIG12 , in certain embodiments, when the cleaning module 100 needs to be mounted or removed from another device, for example, when the cleaning module 100 needs to be mounted or removed from the body 200, the connector 151 can engage with the body 200 to mount the first bracket 11 on the body 200; or, the connector 151 can disengage from the body 200 to remove the first bracket 11 from the body 200. In one example, the connector 15 is disposed only at the first end 111 of the first bracket 11. In another example, the connector 15 is disposed only at the second end 113 of the first bracket 11. In another example, the connecting component 15 is disposed at the first end 111 of the first bracket 11 and the second end 113 of the first bracket 11. Thus, compared to the case where the connecting component 15 is disposed only at the first end 111 of the first bracket 11 or only at the second end 113 of the first bracket 11, the case where the connecting component 15 is disposed at the first end 111 of the first bracket 11 and the second end 113 of the first bracket 11 can further improve the reliability and stability of the connection member 151 in mounting and positioning the first bracket 11. The embodiments of the present application are described only by taking the case where the connecting component 15 is disposed at the first end 111 of the first bracket 11 and the second end 113 of the first bracket 11 as an example.
[0083] Referring to FIG13 , in some embodiments, the connector 151 includes a pressing portion 1511 and a connecting portion 1513 linked to the pressing portion 1511. The pressing portion 1511 is configured to be pressed by a user to move the connecting portion 1513 relative to the first bracket 11, thereby enabling or disabling the installation and positioning of the first bracket 11. The connecting component 15 also includes an elastic member 1515, one end of which is connected to the connector 151 and the other end is connected to the first bracket 11. The elastic member 1515 is configured to provide an elastic force, which is used to limit the movement of the connecting portion 1513 relative to the first bracket 11.
[0084] Specifically, in some embodiments, the coupling portion 1513 can cooperate with the body 200 to allow the first bracket 11 to be detachably mounted on the body 200. When the first bracket 11 is not mounted on the body 200, a user can press the pressing portion 1511 to move the coupling portion 1513 relative to the first bracket 11. In this case, the first bracket 11 can move toward the mounting position of the first bracket 11 on the body 200, and the elastic member 1515 can elastically deform and generate an elastic force. When the first bracket 11 moves to the mounting position of the first bracket 11 on the body 200, the user can release the pressing portion 1511. In this case, the pressing portion 1511 can drive the coupling portion 1513 to move relative to the first bracket 11 and cooperate with the body 200 under the elastic force of the elastic member 1515, thereby mounting the first bracket 11 on the body 200. When the first bracket 11 is mounted on the body 200, the user can press the pressing portion 1511 to move the connecting portion 1513 relative to the first bracket 11. In this case, the connecting portion 1513 can be released from the body 200, thereby allowing the first bracket 11 to be removed from the body 200. It is understood that when the first bracket 11 is mounted on the body 200, if no external force is applied to the connecting member 151, or the force applied to the connecting member 151 is less than the elastic force of the elastic member 1515, the elastic force of the elastic member 1515 can keep the connecting portion 1513 engaged with the body 200.
[0085] Furthermore, in some embodiments, a connecting groove 119 is provided at the first end 111 of the first bracket 11 and the second end 113 of the first bracket 11. A portion of the connecting member 151 is disposed in the connecting groove 119 and is movable relative to the first bracket 11 within the connecting groove 119. An elastic member 1515 is disposed in the connecting groove 119, with opposite ends of the elastic member 1515 respectively connected to the connecting member 151 and the inner wall of the connecting groove 119. The provision of the connecting groove 119 can, on the one hand, reduce the space occupied by the first bracket 11 and the connecting member 15, thereby facilitating miniaturization of the cleaning module 100; and on the other hand, it can protect the connecting member 15, preventing external dirt from affecting the movement of the connecting member 151 relative to the first bracket 11 (e.g., causing the connecting member 151 to become stuck by dirt), thereby ensuring normal assembly of the first bracket assembly 10.
[0086] In some embodiments, the pressing portion 1511 and the connecting portion 1513 are integrally formed, that is, the pressing portion 1511 and the connecting portion 1513 form a single unitary structure, thereby improving the structural strength between the pressing portion 1511 and the connecting portion 1513 and preventing the pressing portion 1511 and the connecting portion 1513 from disconnecting when the user presses the pressing portion 1511 to move the connecting portion 1513 relative to the first bracket 11, thereby ensuring the normal assembly of the first bracket assembly 10. In other embodiments, the pressing portion 1511 and the connecting portion 1513 can be connected together using a non-detachable connection or a detachable connection, wherein the non-detachable connection includes but is not limited to bonding or welding, and the detachable connection includes but is not limited to a snap connection or a threaded connection.
[0087] In other embodiments, the connector 151 is a magnetic member, which is used to achieve or release the installation and positioning of the first bracket 11. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the magnetic member can be made of magnetic materials such as iron, cobalt, nickel, ferrite, and rare earth permanent magnets.
[0088] Specifically, in some embodiments, the magnetic member can cooperate with the body 200 to allow the first bracket 11 to be detachably mounted on the body 200. When the first bracket 11 is not mounted on the body 200, a user can apply force to the first bracket 11 to move the first bracket 11 toward its mounting position on the body 200. When the first bracket 11 moves to its mounting position on the body 200, the magnetic member can cooperate with the body 200 to mount the first bracket 11 on the body 200. When the first bracket 11 is mounted on the body 200, the user can apply a force to the first bracket 11 that overcomes the magnetic force between the magnetic member and the body 200. In this case, the magnetic member is disengaged from the body 200, thereby allowing the first bracket 11 to be removed from the body 200.
[0089] More specifically, in some embodiments, the body 200 is provided with a component capable of cooperating with a magnetic member (e.g., a magnetic member described below). The magnetic member can cooperate with the magnetic member to achieve or release the installation and positioning of the first bracket 11 on the body 200. Specifically, when the first bracket 11 is not installed on the body 200, a user can apply force to the first bracket 11 to move it toward its installation position on the body 200. When the first bracket 11 moves to its installation position on the body 200, the magnetic member can cooperate with the magnetic member to install the first bracket 11 on the body 200. When the first bracket 11 is installed on the body 200, the user can apply a force to the first bracket 11 that overcomes the magnetic force between the magnetic member and the magnetic member. In this case, the magnetic member and the magnetic member are released, thereby allowing the first bracket 11 to be removed from the body 200.
[0090] In some embodiments, the magnetic member is integrally formed with the first bracket 11, that is, the magnetic member and the first bracket 11 form a single unitary structure, thereby enhancing the structural strength between the magnetic member and the first bracket 11 and preventing the magnetic member from falling off the first bracket 11, thereby ensuring the normal assembly of the first bracket assembly 10. In other embodiments, the magnetic member and the first bracket 11 can be connected together using a non-detachable connection or a detachable connection, wherein the non-detachable connection includes but is not limited to bonding or welding; the detachable connection includes but is not limited to a snap connection or a threaded connection.
[0091] Referring to Figures 1, 2, and 8, in certain embodiments, the second bracket assembly 20 includes a second bracket 21 and a second roller 23. The second roller 23 is rotatably mounted on the second bracket 21 and is capable of cooperating with the wiping member 120. Specifically, in certain embodiments, when the wiping member 120 is disposed on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, and both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are tightly coupled with the wiping member 120, the wiping member 120 is capable of tightly cooperating with the second roller 23. Thus, when the second roller 23 rotates relative to the second bracket 21, the second roller 23 can drive the wiping member 120 to rotate relative to the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, thereby enabling the cleaning module 100 to perform a wiping function.
[0092] The material of the second bracket 21 includes, but is not limited to, metal or non-metal materials, wherein metal materials include, but are not limited to, aluminum, iron, steel, or aluminum alloys, and non-metal materials include, but are not limited to, plastics. In one example, the second bracket 21 can be made of a metal material, thereby increasing the structural strength of the second bracket 21, improving the load capacity of the second bracket 21, preventing deformation and damage of the second bracket 21 during operation of the cleaning module 100, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the operation of the cleaning module 100. In another example, the second bracket 21 can be made of a non-metal material, thereby reducing the weight of the second bracket 21, thereby facilitating the lightweighting of the second bracket assembly 20 and the cleaning module 100.
[0093] In some embodiments, the second bracket 21 includes a first end 211 and a second end 213 relative to each other, and the second bracket assembly 20 may further include a mounting portion 25, which is arranged at the first end 211 of the second bracket 21 or the second end 213 of the second bracket 21, and the mounting portion 25 is used to realize or release the installation positioning of the second bracket 21.
[0094] Specifically, referring to FIG. 12 , in certain embodiments, when the cleaning module 100 needs to be mounted or removed from another device, for example, when the cleaning module 100 needs to be mounted or removed from the body 200, the mounting portion 25 can engage with the body 200 to mount the second bracket 21 thereon; or, the mounting portion 25 can release its engagement with the body 200 to allow the second bracket 21 to be removed from the body 200. In one example, the mounting portion 25 can be a pin disposed at the first end 211 or the second end 213 of the second bracket 21, and the pin can engage with the body 200 to secure or release the second bracket 21. In another example, the mounting portion 25 can be a through-hole disposed at the first end 211 or the second end 213 of the second bracket 21, and the through-hole can engage with the body 200 to secure or release the second bracket 21.
[0095] In summary, in some embodiments, the disassembly process of the cleaning module 100 on the body 200 may include: first, the user needs to release the installation position of the first bracket 11 on the body 200, that is, the user can press the pressing portion 1511 to move the connecting portion 1513 relative to the first bracket 11, thereby releasing the installation position of the first bracket 11; or the user can apply force to the first bracket 11 to release the matching between the connecting member 151 (magnetic member) and the body 200, thereby releasing the installation position of the first bracket 11; then, The user can apply force to the first bracket 11 through the protruding member 115 to lift the first bracket 11, thereby removing the first bracket 11 from the body 200. Subsequently, the user can apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 to release the second bracket 21 from the body 200, that is, to release the engagement of the mounting portion 25 with the body 200. Finally, the user can continue to apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 to remove the cleaning module 100 from the body 200. It will be understood that when the cleaning module 100 is removed from the body 200, the wiping member 120 is loosely engaged with at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20.
[0096] Please refer to Figure 8. In some embodiments, one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 is provided with a guide member 101, and the other of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 is provided with a guide groove 102. The guide member 101 cooperates with the guide groove 102 to enable the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to move relative to each other.
[0097] Specifically, in some embodiments, the first bracket assembly 10 is provided with a guide member 101, and the second bracket assembly 20 is provided with a guide groove 102. The guide member 101 is provided on the side of the first bracket 11 facing the second bracket assembly 20, and the guide groove 102 is provided on the side of the second bracket 21 facing the first bracket assembly 10. The guide member 101 is a protrusion, and the guide groove 102 is a groove. The protrusion can extend into the groove, and the protrusion can move within the groove when the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from or toward each other. The provision of the guide member 101 and the guide groove 102 can provide guidance for the relative movement between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, preventing the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 from shifting or misaligning during relative movement, which could cause the wiping member 120 to become stuck and unable to rotate relative to the cleaning surface, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the cleaning module 100.
[0098] In other embodiments, the first bracket assembly 10 is provided with a guide groove 102, and the second bracket assembly 20 is provided with a guide member 101. The guide groove 102 is provided on the side of the first bracket 11 facing the second bracket assembly 20, and the guide member 101 is provided on the side of the second bracket 21 facing the first bracket assembly 10. The guide member 101 is a protrusion, and the guide groove 102 is a groove. The protrusion can extend into the groove, and the protrusion can move within the groove when the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from or toward each other. The provision of the guide member 101 and the guide groove 102 can provide guidance for the relative movement between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, preventing the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 from shifting or misaligning during relative movement, which could cause the wiping member 120 to become stuck and unable to rotate relative to the cleaning surface, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the cleaning module 100.
[0099] If the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are not limited in their extreme positions away from each other, then when the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 are subjected to external force, the distance that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can be separated is too large, which will cause damage to the reset member 30 connecting the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, thereby affecting the normal operation of the cleaning module 100. Referring to Figures 8 and 10, in the embodiment of the present application, one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 is provided with a limiter 103, and the other of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 is provided with a mating member 104. The limiter 103 and the mating member 104 cooperate to limit the extreme positions of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 away from each other, thereby preventing the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 from being separated by an excessive distance when the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 are subjected to external force, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning module 100.
[0100] The position-limiting member 103 may include one or more members, and the mating member 104 may correspond to the position-limiting member 103, i.e., the mating member 104 may also include one or more members. In some embodiments, when there is only one position-limiting member 103, the position-limiting member 103 may be positioned in the middle of the first bracket assembly 10 or the second bracket assembly 20. In other embodiments, when there are multiple position-limiting members 103, the multiple position-limiting members 103 may be spaced apart in the first bracket assembly 10 or the second bracket assembly 20.
[0101] [Corrected 04.03.2024 according to Rule 91] Please refer to Figures 8 and 10. In some embodiments, the limiting member 103 is a bolt 1031, which includes a head 1033 and a rod 1035 connected to each other. The mating member 104 includes an extension portion 1041 and a clamping portion 1043 connected to each other. The extension portion 1041 and the clamping portion 1043 together form a movable space 1045. The rod 1035 is connected to one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. The head 1033 is movably disposed in the movable space 1045. When the head 1033 moves to abut against the clamping portion 1043, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are in an extreme position away from each other.
[0102] Specifically, in some embodiments, the rod 1035 is movably disposed through the engaging portion 1043 and is movable relative to the engaging portion 1043. The head 1033 is disposed in the movable space 1045 and is movable relative to the engaging portion 1043 along with the rod 1035. When the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other, the rod 1035 can move with the first bracket assembly 10 in a direction away from the second bracket assembly 20, or move with the second bracket assembly 20 in a direction away from the first bracket assembly 10, thereby driving the head 1033 to move relative to the engaging portion 1043 in the movable space 1045. Furthermore, when the head 1033 moves to abut against the engaging portion 1043, the head 1033 and the engaging portion 1043 can jointly limit the separation of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. That is, when the head 1033 abuts against the engaging portion 1043, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are at an extreme position of separation.
[0103] Please refer to Figure 11. In other embodiments, one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 is provided with a movable groove 105 and an opening 106 connected to the movable groove 105. The opening 106 is opposite to the other of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. The limiting member 103 is a hook 1037 arranged at the opening 106, and the mating member 104 is a protrusion 1047. The protrusion 1047 is movably provided in the movable groove 105. When the hook 1037 abuts the protrusion 1047, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are in an extreme position away from each other.
[0104] Specifically, in some embodiments, the protrusion 1047 (matching member 104) can be disposed in the movable groove 105 through the opening 106 and can move relative to the hook 1037 (limiting member 103) in the movable groove 105. When the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other, the protrusion 1047 can move with the first bracket assembly 10 in a direction away from the second bracket assembly 20, or move with the second bracket assembly 20 in a direction away from the first bracket assembly 10, thereby enabling the protrusion 1047 to move relative to the hook 1037 in the movable groove 105. Furthermore, when the protrusion 1047 moves to abut against the hook 1037, the protrusion 1047 and the hook 1037 can jointly limit the distance between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. That is, when the protrusion 1047 abuts against the hook 1037, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are at an extreme position of being away from each other.
[0105] Referring to Figures 1 and 12, a cleaning device 1000 according to certain embodiments of the present application includes a body 200 and a cleaning module 100 according to any of the above-described embodiments, wherein the cleaning module 100 is mounted on the body 200. It should be noted that, in certain embodiments, the cleaning device 1000 is an intelligent device capable of performing functions such as sweeping, vacuuming, and mopping. The cleaning device 1000 may include a self-propelled cleaning robot or a handheld cleaning device. Self-propelled cleaning robots include, but are not limited to, mopping robots, sweeping and mopping robots, and window cleaning robots; handheld cleaning devices include, but are not limited to, floor scrubbers and mopping machines.
[0106] In the cleaning device 1000 according to the embodiment of the present application, the first bracket assembly 10 is connected to the second bracket assembly 20, the reset member 30 connects the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, and the wiping member 120 is mounted on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. When the external force disappears, the reset member 30 drives the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to move closer to each other, so that at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 is loosely fitted with the wiping member 120. Therefore, compared with cleaning modules in the related art, when the wiping member 120 needs to be replaced, the user does not need to apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 to move the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 closer together, and can achieve detachment of the wiping member 120. The operation steps are relatively simple, and the removal efficiency of the wiping member 120 is improved. In addition, the user does not need to squeeze the dirty wiping member 120 to apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20, thereby improving the user experience of removing the dirty wiping member 120.
[0107] Referring to Figures 2, 12, and 14(b), in some embodiments, a positioning portion 210 is provided on the body 200. The positioning portion 210 can cooperate with the connector 151 to allow the first bracket 11 to be detachably mounted on the body 200. Specifically, in some embodiments, when the cleaning module 100 needs to be mounted on or removed from the body 200, the connector 151 can cooperate with the positioning portion 210 to mount the first bracket 11 on the body 200; or, the connector 151 can release its engagement with the positioning portion 210 to allow the first bracket 11 to be removed from the body 200. Among them, when there are two connecting parts 15, and the two connecting parts 15 are respectively arranged at the first end 111 of the first bracket 11 and the second end 113 of the first bracket 11, there are two positioning parts 210, and the two positioning parts 210 respectively cooperate with the two connecting parts 15. Therefore, compared with the case where the connecting part 15 only includes one, and the connecting part 15 is only arranged at the first end 111 of the first bracket 11, or the connecting part 15 is only arranged at the second end 113 of the first bracket 11, the setting of two connecting parts 15 can further improve the reliability and stability of the installation positioning of the connecting member 151 on the first bracket 11.
[0108] Please refer to Figures 8, 13 and 14(b). In some embodiments, the positioning portion 210 includes a through hole, the connecting member 151 includes a pressing portion 1511 and a connecting portion 1513 linked to the pressing portion 1511, the pressing portion 1511 is used for the user to press so that the connecting portion 1513 switches between a state of being inserted into or out of the through hole, so that the first bracket 11 can be detachably installed on the fuselage 200; the connecting component 15 also includes an elastic member 1515, one end of the elastic member 1515 is connected to the connecting member 151, and the other end is connected to the first bracket 11, the elastic member 1515 is used to provide elastic force, and the elastic force is used to keep the connecting portion 1513 in a state of being inserted into the through hole.
[0109] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the first bracket 11 is not installed on the body 200, the user can press the pressing portion 1511 to move the connecting portion 1513 relative to the first bracket 11. In this case, the first bracket 11 can move toward the installation position of the first bracket 11 on the body 200 (that is, the position where the connecting portion 1513 is opposite to the through hole). At the same time, the elastic member 1515 can undergo elastic deformation and generate elastic force; when the first bracket 11 moves to the installation position of the first bracket 11 on the body 200, the user can release the pressing portion 1511. In this case, the pressing portion 1511 can drive the connecting portion 1513 to move relative to the first bracket 11 and penetrate the through hole under the elastic force of the elastic member 1515, so that the first bracket 11 is installed on the body 200. When the first bracket 11 is mounted on the body 200, the user can press the pressing portion 1511 to move the connecting portion 1513 relative to the first bracket 11. In this case, the connecting portion 1513 can be disengaged from the through-hole, thereby allowing the first bracket 11 to be removed from the body 200. It is understood that when the first bracket 11 is mounted on the body 200, if no external force is applied to the connecting member 151, or the force applied to the connecting member 151 is less than the elastic force of the elastic member 1515, the elastic force of the elastic member 1515 can keep the connecting portion 1513 inserted into the through-hole.
[0110] In other embodiments, the positioning portion 210 includes a magnetic member; the connecting member 151 includes a magnetic member, and the magnetic member can cooperate with the magnetic member to enable the first bracket 11 to be detachably installed on the body 200.
[0111] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the first bracket 11 is not installed on the body 200, the user can apply force to the first bracket 11 to move the first bracket 11 toward the installation position of the first bracket 11 on the body 200 (the position where the magnetic member and the magnetic component are opposite to each other), and when the first bracket 11 moves to the installation position of the first bracket 11 on the body 200, the magnetic member can cooperate with the magnetic member to install the first bracket 11 on the body 200. When the first bracket 11 is installed on the body 200, the user can apply a force to the first bracket 11 that can overcome the magnetic force between the magnetic member and the magnetic member. In this case, the magnetic member and the body 200 are disengaged, so that the first bracket 11 can be removed from the body 200.
[0112] In some embodiments, the magnetic component is integrally formed with the body 200, that is, the magnetic component and the body 200 form a single unitary structure. This improves the structural strength between the magnetic component and the body 200, prevents the magnetic component from falling off the body 200, and ensures proper assembly of the first bracket assembly 10. In other embodiments, the magnetic component and the body 200 may be connected using a non-detachable or detachable connection, wherein non-detachable connection methods include, but are not limited to, bonding or welding; detachable connection methods include, but are not limited to, snap-fit or threaded connections.
[0113] Please refer to FIG. 12 and FIG. 14 ( b ). In some embodiments, a locking portion 220 is provided on the body 200 . The locking portion 220 can cooperate with the mounting portion 25 so that the second bracket 21 can be detachably mounted on the body 200 .
[0114] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the cleaning module 100 needs to be installed or removed from the main body 200, the mounting portion 25 can cooperate with the locking portion 220 to install the second bracket 21 on the main body 200; or the mounting portion 25 can release the cooperation with the locking portion 220 to allow the second bracket 21 to be removed from the main body 200. More specifically, in some embodiments, when the mounting portion 25 is a pin, the locking portion 220 is a through-hole, and the pin can be inserted into or removed from the through-hole to allow the second bracket 21 to be detachably installed on the main body 200. In other embodiments, when the mounting portion 25 is a through-hole, the locking portion 220 is a pin, and the pin can be inserted into or removed from the through-hole to allow the second bracket 21 to be detachably installed on the main body 200.
[0115] 2 and 8 , in some embodiments, the second bracket assembly 20 further includes a connecting shaft 27, which is disposed at the second end 213 of the second bracket 21 or the first end 211 of the second bracket 21 and is connected to the second roller 23. The cleaning device 1000 further includes a power module 300, which is mounted on the body 200 and connected to the connecting shaft 27. The power module 300 is configured to drive the second roller 23 to rotate relative to the second bracket 21, thereby driving the wiping member 120 to rotate relative to the second bracket 21.
[0116] Specifically, in certain embodiments, when both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are tightly coupled with the wiping member 120 and the power module 300 drives the second roller 23 to rotate relative to the second bracket 21, the second roller 23 can drive the wiping member 120 to rotate relative to the first bracket 11 and the second bracket 21, and the wiping member 120 can drive the first roller 13 to rotate relative to the first bracket 11, thereby enabling the cleaning device 1000 to perform a wiping function. It will be appreciated that in certain embodiments, the connecting shaft 27, in addition to connecting the power module 300 and the second roller 23 so that the power module 300 can drive the second roller 23 to rotate relative to the second bracket 21, can also work with the mounting portion 25 to achieve the installation and positioning of the second bracket 21. Specifically, the connecting shaft 27 and the mounting portion 25 can be respectively disposed at the first end 211 of the second bracket 21 and the second end 213 of the second bracket 21. Thus, when the connecting shaft 27 engages with the power module 300 and the mounting portion 25 engages with the locking portion 220, the second bracket 21 is mounted to the body 200. Specifically, referring to Figures 14(a) and 14(b), when the mounting portion 25 is a pin and the locking portion 220 is a through hole, the mounting portion 25 can first vertically extend from the first side 201 of the fuselage 200 into the locking portion 220. After the mounting portion 25 extends into the locking portion 220, the mounting portion 25 can rotate relative to the fuselage 200 in the locking portion 220 to achieve engagement between the mounting portion 25 and the locking portion 220, thereby achieving the installation and positioning of the second bracket 21. When the mounting portion 25 vertically extends into the locking portion 220, the direction from the first bracket assembly 10 to the second bracket assembly 20 is substantially the same as the direction from the first side 201 of the fuselage 200 to the second side 203 of the fuselage 200. In addition, when the mounting portion 25 is installed vertically (as shown in Figure 14(a)), the maximum dimension of the mounting portion 25 in the traveling direction X of the cleaning device 1000 is smaller than the maximum dimension of the locking portion 220 in the traveling direction X of the cleaning device 1000; when the mounting portion 25 is rotated relative to the body 200 until the mounting portion 25 and the locking portion 220 are fixedly engaged (as shown in Figure 14(b)), the maximum dimension of the mounting portion 25 in the traveling direction X of the cleaning device 1000 is greater than or equal to the maximum dimension of the locking portion 220 in the traveling direction X of the cleaning device 1000.
[0117] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the power module 300 includes a driving member that can be connected to the connecting shaft 27. When the driving member is operating stably, the driving force generated by the driving member can be transmitted to the connecting shaft 27 and the second roller 23 connected to the connecting shaft 27. As a result, the driving member can drive the second roller 23 to rotate relative to the second bracket 21, and the wiping member 120 to rotate relative to the first bracket 11 and the second bracket 21. The wiping member 120 can drive the first roller 13 to rotate relative to the first bracket 11, thereby enabling the cleaning device 1000 to perform a wiping function. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the power module 300 also includes a transmission unit that is connected to both the driving member and the connecting shaft 27. When the driving member is operating stably, the driving force generated by the driving member can be transmitted to the transmission unit and, through the transmission unit, to the connecting shaft 27 and the second roller 23 connected to the connecting shaft 27. As a result, the driving member can drive the second roller 23 to rotate relative to the second bracket 21, and the second roller 23 can drive the wiping member 120 to rotate relative to the first bracket 11 and the second bracket 21. It should be noted that in certain embodiments, the driving member may be a drive structure such as a motor or electric push rod. Motors include, but are not limited to, DC servo motors, AC servo motors, and stepper motors. The transmission unit may include one or more transmission components such as a screw assembly, a gear assembly, a rack and pinion assembly, and a pulley transmission assembly, which will not be described in detail here.
[0118] To sum up, in some embodiments, the installation process of the cleaning module 100 on the fuselage 200 may include: first, the user needs to realize the installation positioning of the second bracket 21 on the fuselage 200, that is, to cooperate with the locking part 220 and the installation part 25, and to cooperate with the connecting shaft 27 and the power module 300; then, apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 to make the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly rotate relative to the fuselage 200 together, and realize the installation positioning of the first bracket 11 on the fuselage 200, that is, the connecting part 151 cooperates with the positioning part 210; wherein, the connection part 151 and the positioning part 210 cooperate as follows: the connecting part 1513 cooperates with the positioning part 210 (through hole); or, the connecting part 151 (magnetic part) cooperates with the positioning part 210 (magnetic suction part), thereby realizing the installation of the cleaning module 100 on the fuselage 200. It is understandable that when the cleaning module 100 is installed on the body 200 , the wiping member 120 is tightly fitted with the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 .
[0119] The disassembly process of the cleaning module 100 on the body 200 may include: first, the user needs to release the installation position of the first bracket 11 on the body 200, that is, the user can press the pressing portion 1511 to move the connecting portion 1513 relative to the first bracket 11, thereby releasing the installation position of the first bracket 11; or the user can apply force to the first bracket 11 to release the cooperation between the connecting member 151 (magnetic member) and the positioning portion 210 (through hole), thereby releasing the installation position of the first bracket 11; then, the user can use the protruding member 115 to press the first bracket 111 to release the connection between the connecting member 151 (magnetic member) and the positioning portion 210 (through hole), thereby releasing the installation position of the first bracket 11. A bracket 11 applies force to lift the first bracket 11, thereby removing the first bracket 11 from the body 200. Subsequently, the user can apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 to release the second bracket 21 from the body 200, that is, to release the engagement between the mounting portion 25 and the locking portion 220, and the engagement between the connecting shaft 27 and the power module 300. Finally, the user can continue to apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 to remove the cleaning module 100 from the body 200. It will be understood that when the cleaning module 100 is removed from the body 200, the wiping member 120 is loosely engaged with at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20.
[0120] The inventors noticed that in the related art, the user needs to first separate the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly so that the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly are tightly fitted with the wiping member, and then install the cleaning module on the fuselage. The operation is relatively complicated and affects the assembly efficiency of the cleaning module.
[0121] Therefore, in order to solve the above technical problems, the inventors have conducted in-depth research and designed a relatively simple structure so that the user does not need to apply force to separate the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly before installing the cleaning module to the body so that the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly are in a tight fit with the wiping member.
[0122] Please refer to Figures 12 and 15. In the embodiment of the present application, a force-applying member 230 is provided on the body 200. The force-applying member 230 is used to cooperate with at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to move the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 away from each other. That is, during the process of installing the cleaning module 100 on the body 200, the force-applying member 230 can apply force to at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to move the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 away from each other, so that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can both tightly cooperate with the wiping member 120. Therefore, when the user installs and positions the first bracket assembly 10, the force-applying member 230 on the fuselage 200 can be used to separate the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. Before this, the user does not need to perform additional operations to separate the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 so that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are tightly fitted with the wiping member 120, and then install the cleaning module 100 on the fuselage 20, thereby simplifying the operating steps and improving the assembly efficiency of the cleaning module 100.
[0123] In some embodiments, the force member 230 includes a partition 231. When the cleaning module 100 is installed on the body 200, the partition 231 is used to apply force to at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to keep the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 away from each other.
[0124] Specifically, in some embodiments, the partition 231 may be a raised structure provided on the body 200. During the process of installing the cleaning module 100 on the body 200, the partition 231 can extend between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. Thus, the partition 231 can apply force to at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, so that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are separated from each other and can both be tightly fitted with the wiping member 120.
[0125] More specifically, in some embodiments, during installation of the cleaning module 100 on the body 200, the partition 231 can extend between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, and the partition 231 can abut against both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. At this time, the partition 231 can apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to move the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 away from each other. The reaction force exerted by the partition 231 on the first bracket assembly 10 can cause the first bracket assembly 10 to move away from the second bracket assembly 20, and the reaction force exerted by the partition 231 on the second bracket assembly 20 can cause the second bracket assembly 20 to move away from the first bracket assembly 10. As a result, when the cleaning module 100 is in place on the body 200, both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can tightly fit with the wiping member 120.
[0126] In other embodiments, during installation of the cleaning module 100 on the body 200, the partition 231 can extend between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, and the partition 231 only abuts against the first bracket assembly 10. In this case, the partition 231 can only apply force to the first bracket assembly 10, causing the first bracket assembly 10 to move away from the second bracket assembly 20. This allows both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to tightly engage with the wiping member 120 when the cleaning module 100 is in place on the body 200. In this embodiment, during installation of the cleaning module 100 on the body 200, the second bracket assembly 20 is secured to the body 200 before the first bracket assembly 10, and the second bracket assembly 20 can only rotate relative to the body 200 and cannot move relative to the body 200.
[0127] In some further embodiments, during the process of installing the cleaning module 100 on the fuselage 200, the partition 231 can extend between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, and the partition 231 only abuts against the second bracket assembly 20. At this time, the partition 231 can only apply force to the second bracket assembly 20 to move the second bracket assembly 20 away from the first bracket assembly 10, so that when the cleaning module 100 is installed in place on the fuselage 200, both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can fit tightly with the wiping member 120.
[0128] In some embodiments, the partition 231 is integrally formed with the body 200, that is, the partition 231 and the body 200 form a single unitary structure, thereby improving the structural strength between the partition 231 and the body 200 and preventing the partition 231 from being disconnected from the body 200 during installation of the cleaning module 100, thereby ensuring normal assembly of the cleaning module 100. In other embodiments, the partition 231 and the body 200 can be connected together using a non-detachable connection or a detachable connection, wherein the non-detachable connection includes but is not limited to bonding or welding, and the detachable connection includes but is not limited to a snap connection or a threaded connection.
[0129] In some embodiments, the body 200 is provided with an installation space 240, which can be recessed from the side of the body 200 facing the surface to be cleaned toward a direction away from the surface to be cleaned, and at least a portion of the cleaning module 100 is arranged in the installation space 240, wherein the partition 231 is arranged on the side wall of the installation space 240 and / or the bottom wall of the installation space 240. The setting of the installation space 240 can, on the one hand, reduce the size of the space jointly occupied by the cleaning module 100 and the body 200, thereby facilitating the miniaturization of the cleaning equipment 1000; on the other hand, it is beneficial to the installation and positioning of the cleaning module 100 on the body 200, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the cleaning module 100.
[0130] Please continue to refer to Figures 12 and 15. In some embodiments, when the cleaning module 100 is installed on the body 200, along the direction from the first bracket assembly 10 to the second bracket assembly 20, the partition 231 includes a first side wall 2311 and a second side wall 2313, the first side wall 2311 abuts against the first bracket assembly 10, and the second side wall 2313 abuts against the second bracket assembly 20 or the second side wall 2313 maintains a gap with the second bracket assembly 20.
[0131] Specifically, please refer to Figures 2 and 8. In some embodiments, the installation process of the cleaning module 100 on the fuselage 200 may be: first install the second bracket assembly 20 on the fuselage 200 (as shown in Figure 15), and then apply force to the cleaning module 100 to rotate the cleaning module 100 around the extension direction of the second bracket assembly 20 (the direction from the first end 211 of the second bracket 21 to the second end 213 of the second bracket 21, or the direction from the second end 213 of the second bracket 21 to the first end 211 of the second bracket 21) to allow the first bracket assembly 10 to be installed on the fuselage 200 (as shown in Figure 14), thereby realizing the installation of the cleaning module 100 on the fuselage 200.
[0132] In which, during the rotation of the cleaning module 100 around the extension direction of the second bracket assembly 20, the partition 231 can extend between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, and when the second side wall 2313 abuts against the second bracket assembly 20, the first side wall 2311 can apply force to the first bracket assembly 10, and the second side wall 2313 can apply force to the second bracket assembly 20, thereby, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can move away from each other; or, during the rotation of the cleaning module 100 around the extension direction of the second bracket assembly 20, the partition 231 can extend between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, and when the second side wall 2313 maintains a gap with the second bracket assembly 20, the first side wall 2311 can apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 to move the first bracket assembly 10 away from the second bracket assembly 20.
[0133] It is understandable that the installation process of the cleaning module 100 on the fuselage 200 in the above embodiment is only an exemplary description. In other embodiments, the installation process of the cleaning module 100 on the fuselage 200 can also be other forms, which are not explained one by one here.
[0134] 9 , 14 , and 15 , in some embodiments, a first inclined surface 1173 is provided on a side of the first bracket 11 opposite the second bracket 21, and the first inclined surface 1173 can be opposite to the partition 231. Furthermore, a second inclined surface 215 is provided on a side of the second bracket 21 opposite the first bracket 11, and the second inclined surface 215 can be opposite to the partition 231. Both the first inclined surface 1173 and the second inclined surface 215 are configured to allow the partition 231 to extend between the first bracket 11 and the second bracket 13. It is understood that when the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are close to each other, the first bracket 11 and the second bracket 12 abut against each other or have only a small gap therebetween. The width of the gap is smaller than the minimum distance between the first sidewall 2311 and the second sidewall 2313 of the partition 231, and thus is insufficient to allow the partition 231 to extend between the first bracket 11 and the second bracket 21. Therefore, the setting of the first inclined surface 1173 and / or the second inclined surface 215 increases the gap between the first bracket 11 and the second bracket 12, which makes it easier for the partition 231 to extend into between the first bracket 11 and the second bracket 21 through the larger gap, so that the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are kept away from each other, thereby ensuring the installation positioning of the cleaning module 100 on the fuselage 200.
[0135] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the cleaning module 100 is installed on the fuselage 200, the distance between the first slope 1173 and the center of the second bracket 21 in the travel direction X of the cleaning device 1000 gradually increases along the direction from the first side 201 of the fuselage 200 to the second side 203 of the fuselage 200; the distance between the second slope 215 and the center of the first bracket 11 in the travel direction X of the cleaning device 1000 gradually increases. Therefore, the setting of the first slope 1173 and / or the second slope 215 increases the gap between the first bracket 11 and the second bracket 12, thereby facilitating the partition 231 to extend into between the first bracket 11 and the second bracket 21 through the larger gap.
[0136] Please refer to Figures 9, 12 and 15. In some embodiments, the first bracket 11 includes an abutting side wall 117 opposite to the second bracket 21. The abutting side wall 117 includes a connected abutting surface 1171 and a first inclined surface 1173. The first inclined surface 1173 is inclined from the abutting surface 1171 toward the direction away from the second bracket 21. When the second bracket 21 is installed on the fuselage 200, the first bracket 11 moves toward the fuselage 200 around the central axis of the second bracket 21. When the first bracket 11 moves to the point where the first inclined surface 1173 abuts against the first side wall 2311, the first inclined surface 1173 moves along the first side wall 2311, so that the first bracket 11 moves to the point where the first side wall 2311 abuts against the abutting surface 1171.
[0137] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the cleaning module 100 rotates about the extension direction of the second bracket assembly 20, the first side wall 2311 abuts against the first bracket 11 via the first inclined surface 1173. Thus, the first side wall 2311 can exert a force on the first bracket assembly 10 to move the first bracket assembly 10 away from the second bracket assembly 20, thereby separating the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. Furthermore, the first side wall 2311 can guide the first inclined surface 1173 to move relative to the body 200 to the installation position of the cleaning module 100 on the body 200, thereby abutting the first side wall 2311 against the abutting surface 1171. When the first side wall 2311 abuts against the abutting surface 1171, both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are tightly fitted with the wiping member 120.
[0138] Referring to Figures 12 and 15 , in certain embodiments, when the cleaning module 100 is installed in the housing 200, the partition 231 includes a first side wall 2311 and a second side wall 2313 facing each other along the direction from the first bracket assembly 10 to the second bracket assembly 20. The second side wall 2313 bends and extends toward the second bracket assembly 20. The first side wall 2311 bends and extends toward the second bracket assembly 20 and connects with the second side wall 2313. The first side wall 2311 can abut against the first bracket assembly 10, and the second side wall 2313 can abut against the second bracket assembly 20, or the second side wall 2313 can maintain a distance from the second bracket assembly 20. The following embodiments are described using the example of maintaining a distance between the second side wall 2313 and the second bracket assembly 20.
[0139] Specifically, in some embodiments, during the rotation of the cleaning module 100 around the extension direction of the second bracket assembly 20, the first side wall 2311 can generate a force on the first bracket assembly 10 in the direction from the second bracket assembly 20 to the first bracket assembly 10 when the cleaning module 100 is installed on the fuselage 200, thereby enabling the first bracket assembly 10 to move along the first side wall 2311 in the direction away from the second bracket assembly 20, thereby enabling both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to fit tightly with the wiping member 120.
[0140] The first side wall 2311 can bend and extend toward the second bracket assembly 20 and connect with the second side wall 2313. In other words, the angle between the tangent direction of the first side wall 2311 and the direction from the first bracket assembly 10 to the second bracket assembly 20 when the cleaning module 100 is installed on the body 200 is less than 90°. During the installation of the cleaning module 100, when the first side wall 2311 abuts the first mounting assembly 10, the first mounting assembly 10 can generate a downward force on the first side wall 2311. At the same time, the first side wall 2311 can generate an upward reaction force on the first mounting assembly 10, and this reaction force can generate a component force on the first mounting assembly 10 in the direction from the second mounting assembly 20 to the first mounting assembly 10, thereby enabling the first mounting assembly 10 to move away from the second mounting assembly 20, thereby ensuring smooth installation of the cleaning module 100.
[0141] Please refer to Figure 16. In some embodiments, the force-applying member 230 includes a magnetic element 233; a magnetic element 107 is provided on at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, and the magnetic element 233 cooperates with the magnetic element 107 and generates an attractive force on the magnetic element 107 to keep the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 away from each other.
[0142] Specifically, in certain embodiments, when the cleaning module 100 is mounted on the housing 200, the magnetic element 233 can generate an attractive force on the magnetic element 107, thereby forcing the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 away from each other, thereby enabling both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to tightly engage with the wiping member 120. In one embodiment, the magnetic element 107 is only provided on the first bracket assembly 10, and the magnetic element 233 is provided on the housing 200 at a position corresponding to the first bracket assembly 10. In another embodiment, the magnetic element 107 is only provided on the second bracket assembly 20, and the magnetic element 233 is provided on the housing 200 at a position corresponding to the second bracket assembly 20. In yet another embodiment, the magnetic element 107 includes a first magnetic element and a second magnetic element, with the first magnetic element provided on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second magnetic element provided on the second bracket assembly 20. In this case, the magnetic element 233 also includes a first magnetic element and a second magnetic element, with the first magnetic element opposing the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element opposing the second magnetic element. In which, when the cleaning module 100 is arranged on the body 200, the first magnetic element can generate an attraction to the first magnetic element to move the first bracket assembly 10 in a direction away from the second bracket assembly 20; the second magnetic element can generate an attraction to the second magnetic element to move the second bracket assembly 20 in a direction away from the first bracket assembly 10, thereby making the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other, and also helping to achieve the installation positioning of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20.
[0143] In some embodiments, both the magnetic element 233 and the magnetic element 107 are permanent magnets, and the magnetic element 233 can cooperate with the magnetic element 107 and generate an attractive force on the magnetic element 107. In other embodiments, one of the magnetic element 233 and the magnetic element 107 is a permanent magnet, and the other is an electromagnet. When the cleaning module 100 is installed in the body 200, the electromagnet is energized and cooperates with the permanent magnet, thereby causing the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to move away from each other.
[0144] In some embodiments, the magnetic element 233 is integrally formed with the body 200, that is, the magnetic element 233 and the body 200 form a single unitary structure, thereby improving the structural strength between the magnetic element 233 and the body 200, preventing the magnetic element 233 from falling off the body 200 during assembly of the cleaning module 100, and ensuring normal assembly of the cleaning module 100. In other embodiments, the magnetic element 233 and the body 200 can be connected together using a non-detachable connection or a detachable connection, wherein the non-detachable connection includes but is not limited to bonding or welding; the detachable connection includes but is not limited to a snap connection or a threaded connection.
[0145] Accordingly, in some embodiments, the magnetic element 107 is integrally formed with the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20, that is, the magnetic element 107 and the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 are an integral structure, thereby improving the structural strength between the magnetic element 107 and the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20, preventing the magnetic element 107 from falling off the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 during the assembly process of the cleaning module 100, and ensuring the normal assembly of the cleaning module 100. In other embodiments, the magnetic element 107 and the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 can be combined together using a non-detachable connection method or a detachable connection method, wherein the non-detachable connection method includes but is not limited to bonding or welding, and the detachable connection method includes but is not limited to a snap connection or a threaded connection.
[0146] Referring to Figures 15 and 17 , in certain embodiments, the first bracket assembly 10 includes a first connecting rod 17, and the second bracket assembly 20 includes a second connecting rod 29. The first connecting rod 17 and the second connecting rod 29 are rotatably connected and arranged at an angle. When the cleaning module 100 is installed in the body 200, the connection between the first connecting rod 17 and the second connecting rod 29 can cooperate with the force applying member 230 to move the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 away from each other, and the angle between the first connecting rod 17 and the second connecting rod 29 gradually increases.
[0147] Specifically, in some embodiments, one end of the first connecting rod 17 is rotatably connected to the first bracket 11 and the other end is rotatably connected to the second connecting rod 29 ; one end of the second connecting rod 29 is rotatably connected to the second bracket 21 and the other end is rotatably connected to the first connecting rod 17 . When the cleaning module 100 is not installed on the body 200, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are in an initial state. In this state, the first connecting rod 17 and the second connecting rod 29 are arranged at an angle that is less than 90°. When the cleaning module 100 is installed on the body 200, the connection between the first connecting rod 17 and the second connecting rod 29 can abut against the force-applying member 230. As a result, the force-applying member 230 can apply a force to the first bracket assembly 10 via the first connecting rod 17 to move it away from the second bracket assembly 20, and / or apply a force to the second bracket 21 via the second connecting rod 29 to move it away from the first bracket assembly 10, thereby causing the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to move away from each other and both to tightly engage with the wiping member 120. It will be understood that in this embodiment, the force-applying member 230 can be located at a position on the body 200 opposite to the cleaning module 100 when the cleaning module 100 is installed on the body 200. For example, the force applying member 230 may be a bottom wall or a side wall of the installation space 240 .
[0148] The inventors noticed that in the related art, when users disassemble and replace the mop, they need to first remove the bracket from the body and then remove the mop from the bracket. The operation steps are relatively cumbersome, which affects the loading and unloading efficiency of the mop.
[0149] Therefore, in order to solve the above technical problems, the inventors, after in-depth research, designed a wiping member, which is configured to be installed in a sleeve on the bracket module, and when the external force disappears, the first bracket assembly of the bracket module and the second bracket assembly of the bracket module can approach each other, so that at least one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly can loosely fit with the wiping member.
[0150] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 , certain embodiments of the present application illustrate a wiping member 120 configured to be mounted within a bracket module 110. The bracket module 110 includes a first bracket assembly 10, a second bracket assembly 20, and a reset member 30. The second bracket assembly 20 is connected to the first bracket assembly 10. The reset member 30 is disposed between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. The wiping member 120 is mounted between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. When an external force is applied to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can move away from each other, allowing both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to tightly engage the wiping member 120. When the external force is removed, the reset member 30 pulls the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 toward each other, allowing at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to loosely engage the wiping member 120.
[0151] The wiping member 120 of the embodiment of the present application is mounted on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. The first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are connected, and the restoring member 30 is disposed between the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. When the external force disappears, the restoring member 30 drives the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to move closer to each other, so that at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 is loosely fitted with the wiping member 120. Therefore, compared with the wiping member 120 in the related art, when the wiping member 120 needs to be replaced, the user does not need to apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 to move the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 closer together to achieve detachment of the wiping member 120. The operation steps are relatively simple, and the removal efficiency of the wiping member 120 is improved. In addition, the user does not need to squeeze the dirty wiping member 120 to apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20, thereby improving the user experience of removing the dirty wiping member 120.
[0152] It is understandable that the specific structures of the wiping member 120 and the bracket module 110 in this embodiment are exactly the same as those in the above-mentioned embodiment, and are not described again here.
[0153] The inventors noted that in related art, a cleaning module is provided at the bottom of the cleaning device's body, enabling the cleaning device to clean the surface to be cleaned through the cleaning module. Typically, the cleaning module includes a bracket and a wiping member mounted on the bracket. When the wiping member is mounted on the bracket, the wiping member and the bracket are in a loose fit, requiring the user to perform corresponding operations on the cleaning module to achieve a tight fit between the wiping member and the bracket before the cleaning module can be installed on the device. This operation is relatively complex and affects the assembly efficiency of the cleaning module.
[0154] Therefore, in order to solve the above technical problems, the inventors have conducted in-depth research and designed a relatively simple structure so that the user does not need to perform corresponding operations to transform the wiping member and the bracket into a tight fit before installing the cleaning module to the body.
[0155] Referring to Figures 1 and 12 , a cleaning device 1000 according to certain embodiments of the present application includes a body 200 and a cleaning module 100. The body 200 includes a force-applying member 230. The cleaning module 100 is detachably mounted on the body 200 and includes: a first bracket assembly 10, a second bracket assembly 20, and a wiping member 120. The second bracket assembly 20 is connected to the first bracket assembly 10; the wiping member 120 is mounted on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. During installation of the cleaning module 100 on the body 200, the force-applying member 230 engages with at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, thereby moving the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 away from each other and enabling each to tightly engage with the wiping member 120.
[0156] In the cleaning device 1000 of the embodiment of the present application, the body 200 includes a force member 230, which is used to cooperate with at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to move the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 away from each other, that is, during the process of installing the cleaning module 100 on the body 200, the force member 230 can apply force to at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 to move the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 away from each other, thereby making the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 move away from each other. The components 20 can be tightly fitted with the wiping member 120. Therefore, when the user installs and positions the first bracket component 10, the force-applying member 230 on the fuselage 200 can be used to separate the first bracket component 10 and the second bracket component 20. Before this, the user does not need to perform additional operations to separate the first bracket component 10 and the second bracket component 20 so that the first bracket component 10 and the second bracket component 20 are tightly fitted with the wiping member 120, and then install the cleaning module 100 on the fuselage 20, thereby simplifying the operating steps and improving the assembly efficiency of the cleaning module 100.
[0157] It is understandable that the specific structure of the cleaning device 1000 (including the body 200 and the cleaning module 100) in the embodiment of the present application is exactly the same as the specific structure of the cleaning device 1000 in the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.
[0158] The inventors noted that in related art, a cleaning device has a cleaning module installed at the bottom of its body, which allows the device to clean the surface to be cleaned. Generally, the cleaning module includes a bracket and a wiping member mounted on the bracket. To replace the wiping member, the user must remove the bracket from the body and apply force to the bracket to retract it, thereby removing the wiping member. This operation is cumbersome and results in low efficiency in assembling and removing the wiping member. Furthermore, after replacing the wiping member, the wiping member and the bracket are in a loose fit, requiring the user to perform corresponding operations on the cleaning module to secure the wiping member and the bracket to a tight fit before the cleaning module can be installed on the body. This operation is complex and affects the assembly efficiency of the cleaning module.
[0159] Therefore, in order to solve the above technical problems, the inventors have conducted in-depth research and designed a relatively simple structure, so that the user does not need to apply force to separate the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly before installing the cleaning module to the body so that the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly are in a tight fit with the mopping member; and the user does not need to apply force to loosely fit one of the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly with the mopping member after removing the cleaning module from the body.
[0160] The cleaning device 1000 of certain embodiments of the present application includes a body 200 and a cleaning module 100. The cleaning module 100 can be detachably installed on the body 200 and includes: a first bracket assembly 10, a second bracket assembly 20 and a wiping member 120. The second bracket assembly 20 is connected to the first bracket assembly 10, and the wiping member 120 is installed on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. In which, when the cleaning module 100 is installed on the fuselage 200 and the fuselage 200 is matched with at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are separated from each other so that both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can be tightly matched with the wiping member 120; when the cleaning module 100 is removed from the fuselage 200 and the fuselage 200 is disengaged from at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can be close to each other so that at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can be loosely matched with the wiping member 120.
[0161] In the cleaning device 1000 of the embodiment of the present application, the first bracket assembly 10 is connected to the second bracket assembly 20, and the wiping member 120 is installed on the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20. When the cleaning module 100 is removed from the body 200 and the body 200 is disengaged from at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can be close to each other so that at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 is loosely fitted with the wiping member 120. Therefore, compared with the cleaning module in the related art, when the wiping member 120 needs to be replaced, the user does not need to apply force to the first bracket assembly 10 and / or the second bracket assembly 20 to bring the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 close to each other, and the wiping member 120 can be disassembled. The operation steps are relatively simple, and the disassembly efficiency of the wiping member 120 is improved.
[0162] In addition, when the cleaning module 100 is installed on the body 200 and the body 200 is matched with at least one of the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20, the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 are separated from each other so that both the first bracket assembly 10 and the second bracket assembly 20 can be tightly matched with the wiping member 120. Therefore, compared with the traditional cleaning module, the user can directly install the cleaning module 100 on the body 200 without performing corresponding operations on the cleaning module 100, which simplifies the operation steps and improves the assembly efficiency of the cleaning module 100.
[0163] It is understandable that the specific structure of the cleaning device 1000 (including the body 200 and the cleaning module 100) in the embodiment of the present application is exactly the same as the specific structure of the cleaning device 1000 in the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.
