[0008] A base station body, wherein a receiving cavity is formed on the base station body, the receiving cavity being used to accommodate the main body of the cleaning equipment;

[0009] A locator is connected to the base station body;

[0010] Wherein, the line connecting the pile finding component and the base station body on one side wall away from the end of the pile finding component in the width direction is the first connecting line, and the line connecting the pile finding component and the base station body on the other side wall away from the end of the pile finding component in the width direction is the second connecting line, and the angle between the first connecting line and the second connecting line is greater than or equal to 51°.

[0011] In one feasible implementation, the ratio of the depth to the width of the base station body is less than or equal to 0.62.

[0012] In one feasible implementation, the ratio of the height of the base station body to the depth of the base station body is less than or equal to 0.6; and / or

[0013] The ratio of the height to the width of the base station body is less than or equal to 0.64.

[0014] In one feasible implementation, the thickness of the base station body is between 2mm and 50mm in the width direction, and the difference between the width of the receiving cavity and the diameter of the cleaning device body is between 5mm and 20mm.

[0015] In one feasible implementation, a locator mounting area is formed on the base station body, and the depth of the locator mounting area in the depth direction of the base station body is 10mm to 60mm.

[0016] When the main body of the cleaning equipment is placed in the receiving cavity, the shortest distance between the main body of the cleaning equipment and the side of the base station body away from the installation area of ​​the locating device in the depth direction of the base station body is 10mm to 50mm.

[0017] In one feasible implementation, when the cleaning equipment body is placed inside the receiving cavity, the shortest distance between the cleaning equipment body and the locator installation area in the depth direction of the base station body is 0mm to 10mm.

[0018] In one feasible implementation, a dust collection chamber area and a receiving cavity area are formed in the height direction of the base station body, and the ratio of the height of the dust collection chamber area to the height of the receiving cavity area is 0.2 to 1.5.

[0019] In one feasible implementation, the height of the dust collection chamber area is 50mm to 200mm;

[0020] The height of the receiving cavity area is 80mm to 210mm.

[0021] In one feasible implementation, when the main body of the cleaning device is placed in the receiving cavity, the distance between the main body of the cleaning device and the top of the receiving cavity area is 10mm to 50mm, and the distance between the main body of the cleaning device and the bottom of the receiving cavity area is less than or equal to 30mm.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0029] The base station provided in this application embodiment includes a base station body and a stake-finding component. A first connecting line is formed by linking the stake-finding component to one sidewall of the base station body in the width direction, away from the end of the stake-finding component. A second connecting line is formed by linking the stake-finding component to another sidewall of the base station body in the width direction, away from the end of the stake-finding component. The angle between the first and second connecting lines is greater than or equal to 51°. Based on this, during the re-staking process of the cleaning equipment body, the stake-finding component can assist in the re-staking of the cleaning equipment body. By determining that the angle between the first and second connecting lines is greater than or equal to 51°, the relationship between the width and depth of the base station can be clearly defined. This ensures that the cleaning equipment body can be re-staking smoothly while minimizing the width and depth of the base station body, thus reducing the overall size of the base station.

[0036] 210 Cleaning equipment body. Detailed Implementation

[0037] To better understand the above technical solutions, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments of this application and the specific features in the embodiments are detailed descriptions of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, rather than limitations on the technical solutions of this application. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments of this application and the technical features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0038] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, a base station is provided according to a first aspect of the embodiments of this application, comprising: a base station body 110, wherein a receiving cavity is formed on the base station body 110 for receiving a cleaning equipment body 210; and a locator 120 connected to the base station body 110; wherein a first connecting line is formed between the locator 120 and one sidewall of the base station body 110 in the width direction away from the end of the locator 120, and a second connecting line is formed between the locator 120 and another sidewall of the base station body 110 in the width direction away from the end of the locator 120, and the angle between the first connecting line and the second connecting line is greater than or equal to 51°.

[0039] The base station provided in this embodiment includes a base station body 110 and a stake-finding component 120. A first connecting line is formed by connecting the stake-finding component 120 to one sidewall of the base station body 110 in the width direction, away from the end of the stake-finding component 120. A second connecting line is formed by connecting the stake-finding component 120 to another sidewall of the base station body 110 in the width direction, away from the end of the stake-finding component 120. The angle between the first and second connecting lines is greater than or equal to 51°. Based on this, during the re-staking process of the cleaning equipment body 210, the stake-finding component 120 can assist the cleaning equipment body 210 in re-staking. By determining that the angle between the first and second connecting lines is greater than or equal to 51°, the relationship between the width and depth of the base station can be clearly defined. This ensures that the cleaning equipment body 210 can be re-staking smoothly while minimizing the width and depth of the base station body 110, thus reducing the overall size of the base station.

[0040] Understandably, if the angle between the first and second connecting lines is less than 51°, the signal emitted by the locator 120 may be projected onto the side wall of the base station, or in other words, too much signal may be projected onto the side wall of the base station body 110. Furthermore, the signal may be reflected by the side wall, potentially affecting the return of the cleaning equipment body 210 to the locator. At the same time, by selecting an angle between the first and second connecting lines greater than or equal to 51°, the width of the base station body 110 can be increased and the depth of the base station body 110 can be reduced, making the base station body 110 particularly suitable as an embedded base station. This allows the base station to be easily embedded in the user's furniture. Especially for furniture, by reducing the depth of the base station body 110, the depth of the base station can be adapted to the width of the furniture, making it easier for the furniture to accommodate the base station.

[0041] As can be understood from Figure 1, angle α is the angle between the first and second connecting lines, and the locator 120 may include a locator light. Similarly, as can be seen from Figure 1, under the same angle α, the larger the angle between the first and second connecting lines, the wider the base station will be and the smaller its depth will be. This design ensures the smooth return of the cleaning equipment body 210 to the locator, and at the same time facilitates the use of the base station body 110 as an embedded base station.

[0042] In one feasible implementation, the ratio of the depth of the base station body 110 to the width of the base station body 110 is less than or equal to 0.62.

[0043] This technical solution further provides the relationship between the depth and width of the base station body 110. The ratio of the depth to the width of the base station body 110 is less than or equal to 1. Combined with the fact that the angle between the first connecting line and the second connecting line is greater than or equal to 51°, the relationship between the depth and width of the base station body 110 is clearly defined, thus constraining the width and preventing the base station body 110 from being too wide. This allows the base station body 110 to accommodate the cleaning equipment body 210 without excessively occupying space in the width direction.

[0044] In one feasible implementation, the ratio of the height of the base station body 110 to the depth of the base station body 110 is less than or equal to 0.6; and / or the ratio of the height of the base station body 110 to the width of the base station body 110 is less than or equal to 0.64.

[0045] In this technical solution, based on clarifying the relationship between the width and depth of the base station body 110, the relationship between the height and depth and the height and width of the base station body 110 are further clarified. The ratio of the height to the depth of the base station body 110 is less than or equal to 0.6; and / or the ratio of the height to the width of the base station body 110 is less than or equal to 0.64. With this setting, after clarifying the depth and width of the base station body 110, the height of the base station body 110 is compressed as much as possible, which can further reduce the volume of the base station.

[0046] It is understandable that if the ratio of the height of the base station body 110 to the depth of the base station body 110 is greater than 0.6 or the ratio of the height of the base station body 110 to the width of the base station body 110 is greater than 0.64, then the base station may be too tall, which will increase the height requirements of the space during the base station assembly process. Especially when it is an embedded base station, the height of the furniture may not meet the requirements, which will restrict the use scenarios of the base station.

[0047] In one feasible implementation, the thickness of the base station body 110 is between 2 mm and 50 mm in the width direction, and the difference between the width of the accommodating cavity and the diameter of the cleaning device body 210 is between 5 mm and 20 mm.

[0048] In this technical solution, specific numerical parameters of the base station body 110 are further provided. The thickness of the base station body 110 is between 2mm and 50mm. This setting ensures the mechanical strength of the base station body 110 while minimizing the thickness of the base station body 110.

[0049] In this technical solution, the difference between the width of the receiving cavity and the diameter of the cleaning equipment body 210 is 5mm to 20mm. That is to say, when the cleaning equipment body 210 is parked in the receiving cavity, there can be a gap of 5mm to 20mm between the cleaning equipment body 210 and the inner wall of the base station. This setting facilitates the cleaning equipment body 210 to smoothly enter or leave the base station. This gap can provide clearance for the cleaning equipment body 210 and improve the return efficiency of the cleaning equipment body 210.

[0050] It is understandable that E in Figure 1 represents the thickness of the base station body 110. If the thickness of the base station body 110 is less than 2mm, it may reduce the mechanical strength of the base station body 110; if the thickness of the base station body 110 is greater than 50mm, it may increase the width of the base station.

[0051] It is understandable that in Figure 1, D represents the diameter of the cleaning equipment body 210, and B represents the difference between the width of the receiving cavity and the diameter of the cleaning equipment body 210. If the difference between the width of the receiving cavity and the diameter of the cleaning equipment body 210 is less than 5mm, it may increase the difficulty of re-piling the cleaning equipment body 210. If the difference between the width of the receiving cavity and the diameter of the cleaning equipment body 210 is greater than 20mm, it may increase the width of the base station.

[0052] In one feasible implementation, a locator mounting area is formed on the base station body 110, and the depth of the locator mounting area in the depth direction of the base station body 110 is 10mm to 60mm; when the cleaning equipment body 210 is placed in the receiving cavity, the shortest distance between the cleaning equipment body 210 and the side of the base station body 110 away from the locator mounting area in the depth direction of the base station body 110 is 10mm to 50mm.

[0053] In this technical solution, specific parameters of the base station body 110 in the depth direction are further provided. The depth of the locator installation area in the depth direction of the base station body 110 is 10mm to 60mm. This setting facilitates the installation of the locator 120 and provides installation positions for the base station's drying and dust collection components, providing sufficient assembly space while ensuring the compression depth as much as possible.

[0054] In this technical solution, the shortest distance between the cleaning equipment body 210 and the base station body 110 on the side away from the locator installation area is 10mm to 50mm. That is to say, when the cleaning equipment body 210 is placed in the receiving cavity, there is still a distance of 10mm to 50mm between the cleaning equipment body 210 and the opening end of the base station. This setting can better hide the base station body 110 and reduce the probability of other items coming into contact with the cleaning equipment body 210. At the same time, a door 160 can be installed on the base station body 110. The door 160 can be hinged to the base station body 110. The reserved space of 10mm to 50mm can provide space for the opening and closing of the door 160.

[0055] It is understandable that, as shown in Figure 1, where A in Figure 1 is the depth of the locator installation area in the depth direction of the base station body 110, if the depth A is less than 10mm, it may be difficult to assemble the locator light and it may be inconvenient to arrange the drying and dust collection components of the base station. If the value of A is greater than 60mm, it may be possible to increase the depth of the base station.

[0056] It is understandable that, as shown in Figure 1, C in Figure 1 is the shortest distance between the main body of the cleaning equipment 210 and the base station body 110 on the side away from the installation area of ​​the locator. If the value of C is less than 10mm, the main body of the cleaning equipment 210 may be exposed. If the value of C is greater than 50mm, the depth of the base station may be increased.

[0057] In one feasible implementation, when the cleaning equipment body 210 is placed in the receiving cavity, the shortest distance between the cleaning equipment body 210 and the locator installation area in the depth direction of the base station body 110 is 0 mm to 10 mm.

[0058] In this technical solution, the shortest distance between the cleaning equipment body 210 and the locator installation area in the depth direction of the base station body 110 is 0mm to 10mm. That is to say, in some cases, when the cleaning equipment body 210 returns to the receiving cavity, there can be a certain gap between the cleaning equipment body 210 and the locator 120. This gap is conducive to the cleaning equipment body 210 receiving the signal of the locator 120. Of course, the cleaning equipment body 210 can also directly abut against the locator 120, that is, the distance between the two can also be 0.

[0059] It is understandable that, as shown in Figure 1, F in Figure 1 is the shortest distance between the main body 210 of the cleaning equipment and the installation area of ​​the locator. If the value of F is greater than 10mm, it will lead to an increase in the depth of the base station.

[0060] As shown in Figure 1, the depth of the base station is A+D+C+F, and the width of the base station is 2B+D+2E.

[0061] In one feasible implementation, a dust collection chamber region 130 and a receiving cavity region 140 are formed in the height direction of the base station body 110, and the ratio of the height of the dust collection chamber region 130 to the height of the receiving cavity region 140 is 0.2 to 1.5.

[0062] In this technical solution, the height ratio of different functional areas of the base station body 110 in the height direction is further clarified. The ratio of the height of the dust collection chamber area 130 to the height of the accommodating cavity area 140 is 0.2 to 2.5. This setting can reasonably divide the height direction of the base station, while meeting the parking requirements of the cleaning equipment body 210 and reserving sufficient dust collection space.

[0063] It is understandable that, as shown in Figure 2, G represents the height of the dust collection chamber area 130, and H+I+J represents the height of the receiving cavity area 140. If the ratio of the height of the dust collection chamber area 130 to the height of the receiving cavity area 140 is less than 0.2, the dust collection chamber area 130 may be too small, resulting in a small dust collection chamber space and requiring frequent cleaning. If the ratio of the height of the dust collection chamber area 130 to the height of the receiving cavity area 140 is greater than 2.5, the receiving cavity space may be too small, making it difficult to park the main body of the cleaning equipment 210.

[0064] In one feasible implementation, the height of the dust collection chamber area 130 is 50 mm to 200 mm; the height of the receiving cavity area 140 is 80 mm to 210 mm.

[0065] In this technical solution, the specific height ranges of the dust collection chamber area 130 and the receiving cavity area 140 are further clarified: the height of the dust collection chamber area 130 is 50mm to 200mm; and the height of the receiving cavity area 140 is 80mm to 210mm. This arrangement ensures that the dust collection chamber has sufficient space and facilitates the placement of the main body 210 of the cleaning equipment.

[0066] In one feasible implementation, when the cleaning device body 210 is placed in the receiving cavity, the distance between the cleaning device body 210 and the top of the receiving cavity area 140 is 10mm to 50mm, and the distance between the cleaning device body 210 and the bottom of the receiving cavity area 140 is less than or equal to 30mm.

[0067] In this technical solution, numerical parameters of the base station body 110 are further provided when the cleaning equipment body 210 is placed in the receiving cavity. The distance between the cleaning equipment body 210 and the top of the receiving cavity area 140 is 10mm to 50mm, and the distance between the cleaning equipment body 210 and the bottom of the receiving cavity area 140 is less than or equal to 30mm. This setting allows the cleaning equipment body 210 to avoid the base station body 110 in the height direction, while minimizing the height of the base station.

[0068] As can be understood, as shown in Figure 2, H is the distance between the main body 210 of the cleaning device and the top of the cavity area 140, and I is the height of the main body 210 of the cleaning device. If the value of H is less than 10mm, it may cause the main body 210 of the cleaning device to collide with the base station. If the value of H is greater than 50mm, it will cause the height of the main body 210 of the cleaning device to increase.

[0069] As can be understood, as shown in Figure 2, J is the distance between the main body 210 of the cleaning equipment and the bottom of the cavity area 140, and I is the height of the main body 210 of the cleaning equipment. It can be understood that if the value of J is greater than 30mm, it will lead to an increase in the height of the base station.

[0070] As shown in Figure 3, in some examples, the base station may also include a door 150, which is hinged to the base station body 110 for opening or closing the dust collection chamber area 130. This arrangement allows the dust collection chamber area 130 to be closed by the door 150 when there is no need to clean it, making the base station cleaner.

[0071] As shown in Figure 3, in some examples, the base station may also include a hatch 160, which is hinged to the base station body 110 for opening or closing the receiving cavity area 140. With this arrangement, when the cleaning equipment body 210 is placed inside the receiving cavity, the base station can be sealed off by the hatch 160, making the base station neater. In particular, the combination of the door body 150 and the hatch 160, combined with the height, width, and depth parameters of the base station, can reduce the size of the base station, making it more aesthetically pleasing. This is especially suitable for embedded base stations and can fully adapt to users' home decoration scenarios.

[0072] In one feasible implementation, the height of the base station body is less than or equal to 300mm.

[0073] In this technical solution, the overall height of the base station body is further limited. The height of the base station body 110 is less than or equal to 300mm. This setting makes the height of the base station body 110 smaller, which is particularly suitable for use as an embedded base station. The first connection line is formed by connecting the pile finding component 120 and the base station body 110 on one side wall away from the pile finding component 120 in the width direction. The second connection line is formed by connecting the pile finding component 120 and the base station body 110 on the other side wall away from the pile finding component 120 in the width direction. The angle between the first connection line and the second connection line is greater than or equal to 51°. This combination ensures that the main body of the cleaning equipment can be smoothly repositioned while reducing the size of the base station.

[0074] In one feasible implementation, the height of the base station body is less than or equal to 280mm.

[0075] In this technical solution, in order to better accommodate the height of users' furniture in the usage scenario, the height of the base station body 110 is less than or equal to 280mm, making the height of the base station body 110 smaller, which is particularly suitable as an embedded base station. The first connection line is formed by connecting the pile finding component 120 and the base station body 110 on one side wall away from the pile finding component 120 in the width direction, and the second connection line is formed by connecting the pile finding component 120 and the base station body 110 on the other side wall away from the pile finding component 120 in the width direction. The angle between the first connection line and the second connection line is greater than or equal to 51°. This combination ensures that the main body of the cleaning equipment can smoothly return to the pile while reducing the size of the base station.

[0076] In some examples, to better accommodate the height of users' furniture in the usage scenario, the height of the base station body 110 is less than or equal to 278mm, making the base station body 110 smaller, which is particularly suitable as an embedded base station and facilitates the production and processing of the base station body 110. The first connection line is formed by connecting the pile finding component 120 and the base station body 110 at one side wall away from the pile finding component 120 in the width direction, and the second connection line is formed by connecting the pile finding component 120 and the base station body 110 at the other side wall away from the pile finding component 120 in the width direction. The angle between the first connection line and the second connection line is greater than or equal to 51°. This combination ensures that the main body of the cleaning equipment can smoothly return to the pile while reducing the size of the base station.

[0077] In one feasible implementation, the angle between the first line and the second line is less than or equal to 90°.

[0078] In this technical solution, the angle between the first connection and the second connection is less than or equal to 90°. This setting allows the main body of the cleaning equipment to be smoothly re-pileed while minimizing the width of the base station body 110. If the angle between the first connection and the second connection is less than or equal to 90°, the width of the base station body 110 may be too large.

[0079] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, a cleaning system is proposed according to a second aspect of the embodiments of this application, including: a base station as described in any of the above technical solutions; and a cleaning device body 210, which is used to be parked inside the base station.

[0080] The cleaning system provided in this application embodiment includes a base station of any of the above-described technical solutions, and therefore possesses all the beneficial effects of the base station of the above-described technical solutions.

[0081] The cleaning system provided in this embodiment includes a base station and a cleaning equipment body 210. The base station includes a base station body 110 and a stake-finding component 120. A first connecting line is formed by connecting the stake-finding component 120 to one sidewall of the base station body 110 in the width direction away from the end of the stake-finding component 120. A second connecting line is formed by connecting the stake-finding component 120 to another sidewall of the base station body 110 in the width direction away from the end of the stake-finding component 120. The angle between the first and second connecting lines is greater than or equal to 51°. Based on this, during the stake repositioning process of the cleaning equipment body 210, the stake-finding component 120 can assist the cleaning equipment body 210 in repositioning. By determining that the angle between the first and second connecting lines is greater than or equal to 51°, the relationship between the width and depth of the base station can be clearly defined. While ensuring that the cleaning equipment body 210 can smoothly reposition, the width and depth of the base station body 110 are minimized, which is beneficial for reducing the size of the base station.
