[0053] Further, referring to FIGS. 5-7, FIG. 7 is a structural schematic view of the housing 402 and the connection cable 406 provided with a second sealing member 502. The housing 402 and the device body 10 are provided with a first sealing member 501; and / or, the housing 402 and the connection cable 406 are provided with a second sealing member 502.

[0054] In a possible embodiment, the first seal 501 is arranged between the shell 402 and the device body 10. The first seal 501 can be an annular sealing ring. The first seal 501 can be made of rubber, silica gel or the like. The first seal 501 is arranged between the bottom of the shell 402 and the top of the device body 10. The first seal 501 can be clamped between the bottom of the shell 402 and the top of the device body 10, or the first seal 501 can be embedded on one of the top of the shell 402 and the top of the device body 10, and sealingly connected to the other one of the bottom of the shell 402 and the top of the device body 10.

[0055] Since the inside of the shell 402 and the inside of the device body 10 need to accommodate the image acquisition unit 403 and the vision mainboard 404 respectively, the shell 402 and the device body 10 are not convenient to be integrally formed or connected. Therefore, when the shell 402 is arranged on the top of the device body 10, the first sealing ring is further arranged between the shell 402 and the device body 10, which is beneficial to improve the sealing performance of the self-moving operation device 100, and avoid dust, water stains and the like from entering, thereby affecting the performance of the adapter plate 405, the connection wire 406 and the vision mainboard 404.

Optionally, as shown in FIG. 7, the second seal 502 can have an opening 520. By arranging the opening 520, the connection wire 406 can be conveniently inserted through the second seal 502 while the shell 402 and the connection wire 406 are sealed.

[0057] The second seal 502 is arranged to further improve the sealing performance between the housing 402 and the connection cable 406, so as to avoid the connection cable 406 from being affected by external dust and water. In addition, the arrangement of the second seal 502 can limit and fix the connection cable 406, so as to reduce the possibility of the connection cable 406 being bent or raised at the position penetrating through the housing 402, and also to prevent the connection cable 406 from being cut or scratched during the assembly of the self-moving working device 100, thereby improving the reliability of the visual assembly 40.
