[0053] Please refer to FIGS. 1-17, the present scheme is a cleaning device 10, a cleaning system 20 and a cleaning assembly 12, the cleaning device 10 is provided with a heat storage device 13 on the cleaning assembly 12, and the heat storage device 13 is in thermal connection with the cleaning cloth 122. During the cleaning process, the heat storage device 13 can heat the cleaning cloth 122, realize hot mopping of the cleaning cloth 122, and help to remove stubborn stains, oil stains and the like on the ground, so as to improve the cleaning effect.

[0054] Please refer to FIGS. 1-8, the cleaning device 10 includes a machine body 11, a cleaning assembly 12 and a heat storage device 13.

[0055] The machine body 11 has an accommodating space inside for accommodating various parts of the cleaning device 10. The shape of the machine body 11 can be any shape, for example, the shape of the machine body 11 can be circular, oval or D-shaped, etc. The cleaning assembly 12 also includes a conventional driving assembly provided on the existing cleaning device 10, which is arranged below the machine body 11 to drive the cleaning device 10 to realize self-walking. The specific structure of the driving assembly and the connection structure between the driving assembly and the machine body 11 can refer to the related structure description in the existing cleaning device 10, which will not be repeated here.

[0056] The cleaning assembly 12 can be detachably connected to the machine body 11, and the detachable connection can be clamping detachable connection, bolt detachable connection, etc. The cleaning assembly 12 is configured as a wet mopping, and the machine body 11 is provided with a water replenishing mechanism (not shown in the figure), and the water outlet of the water replenishing mechanism is communicated with the mop 122 to provide liquid for the mop 122 on the cleaning assembly 12. The liquid can be cleaning liquid, or can be ordinary tap water, etc., which is determined by the wet mopping requirement of the cleaning equipment 10. Please refer to FIGS. 10-12, the cleaning equipment 10 is correspondingly provided with a base station 21, and the base station 21 is provided with a cleaning assembly, which can be an existing cleaning tank structure, or any other structure capable of containing cleaning liquid and cleaning the mop 122. During the cleaning operation, the cleaning equipment 10 can return to the base station 21 for cleaning of the cleaning assembly 12 multiple times. The base station 21 is provided with a heating device 22, which can heat the cleaning liquid contained in the cleaning assembly 12 to achieve hot cleaning of the mop 122 in the cleaning assembly 12, so as to enhance the cleaning effect of the cleaning assembly 12.

[0057] Please refer to FIGS. 1-3, the cleaning assembly 12 includes a mop mounting rack 121 and a mop 122. The mop mounting rack 121 is mounted below the machine body 11, and the mop 122 is arranged on the mop mounting rack 121. The mop mounting rack 121 and the mop 122 can be detachably connected, or can be fixedly connected. The mop mounting rack 121 and the machine body 11 can be detachably connected, or can be fixedly connected. When replacing the mop 122, the mop 122 can be directly removed from the mop mounting rack 121 for replacement of the mop 122, or the mop 122 can be removed together with the mop mounting rack 121 for replacement of the mop 122. The mop 122 can be a circular mop, a rectangular mop, or a polygonal mop, etc. In this embodiment, for the convenience of description, the mop 122 is a circular mop. The circular mop means that the cleaning operation surface between the mop 122 and the ground is circular. The number of cleaning assemblies 12 can be one set or multiple sets, which is determined by the cleaning area and cleaning efficiency requirements of the cleaning equipment 10. In this embodiment, the cleaning assembly 12 is provided with two sets, and the two sets of cleaning assemblies 12 are symmetrically mounted on the bottom of the machine body 11, so as to realize cleaning of the ground during walking of the cleaning equipment 10.

[0058] Referring to FIGS. 4-7, in the present embodiment, the heat storage device 13 is in thermal contact with the cleaning cloth 122. The installation position of the heat storage device 13 is not limited, for example, the heat storage device 13 can be arranged on the cleaning cloth 122, i.e., the heat storage device 13 is in direct contact and fixed connection with the cleaning cloth 122 to achieve thermal contact between the heat storage device 13 and the cleaning cloth 122; or the heat storage device 13 can be arranged on the cleaning cloth mounting frame 121, i.e., the heat storage device 13 is in indirect contact with the cleaning cloth 122 through the cleaning cloth mounting frame 121 to achieve thermal contact; or the heat storage device 13 can be arranged between the cleaning cloth mounting frame 121 and the cleaning cloth 122, i.e., the heat storage device 13 can be connected with the cleaning cloth 122 and the cleaning cloth mounting frame 121 at the same time. When the cleaning cloth 122 is being cleaned, the heat storage device 13 absorbs heat from the heat source to store heat; when the cleaning cloth 122 is being used for cleaning, the heat storage device 13 releases heat to the cleaning cloth 122 to conduct heat to the cleaning cloth 122. The heat source in the present embodiment can be the cleaning liquid, a heating element for heating the cleaning liquid, or a combination of the cleaning liquid and the heating element, etc. By arranging the heat storage device 13, the cleaning equipment 10 can heat the cleaning cloth 122 through the heat storage device 13 during cleaning, so that the cleaning cloth 122 can be used for hot mopping, and thus the cleaning effect of the cleaning equipment 10 on the ground can be improved. At the same time, since the heat storage device 13 only needs to absorb heat from the cleaning liquid or the heating element for heating the cleaning liquid when the cleaning cloth 122 is being cleaned, and does not need to additionally arrange a heat source on the cleaning assembly 12, compared with the scheme of directly arranging a heating module on the machine body 11, the present scheme is safer, more compact and energy-saving.

[0059] The structure of the heat storage device 13 can be various, and the heat storage device 13 can be a structure containing a phase change material that can change phase in a certain temperature range, such as from solid to liquid or from liquid to solid. When the phase change material changes from solid to liquid, it absorbs heat; when the phase change material changes from liquid to solid, it releases heat. The heat storage device 13 changes between heat absorption and heat release through the state change of the phase change material. The heat storage device 13 can also be a structure containing a solid medium, such as a structure containing heat-absorbing materials such as stone, ceramic, or metal; the heat storage device 13 can also be a structure containing a liquid medium, such as water, liquid metal, or any other material that can absorb the heat of the cleaning liquid when the cleaning cloth 122 is cleaned, and release heat to the cleaning cloth 122 when the cleaning cloth 122 is used for cleaning. The specific structure of the heat storage device 13 needs to be determined according to the heat storage energy requirement, the operating temperature of the cleaning cloth 122, and other conditions. By providing the heat storage device 13 on the cleaning assembly 12 and heat-conducting connecting the heat storage device 13 with the cleaning cloth 122, the heat storage device 13 can absorb the heat of the cleaning liquid when the cleaning cloth 122 is cleaned, and release heat to the cleaning cloth 122 when the cleaning cloth 122 is used for cleaning. In this way, when the cleaning cloth 122 is used for cleaning, the heat storage device 13 can transfer heat to the cleaning cloth 122, thereby reducing the temperature drop speed of the cleaning cloth 122, increasing the time length of the cleaning cloth 122 maintaining hot water mopping, and ultimately improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning assembly 12 when hot water mopping. At the same time, since the heat storage device 13 can absorb the heat of the cleaning liquid when the cleaning cloth 122 is cleaned, and does not need to additionally provide a heating source for the cleaning assembly 12, the structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0060] In view of the heat conduction effect between the heat storage device 13 and the cleaning cloth 122, preferably, in the example of the cleaning device 10 of the present solution, referring to FIGS. 5-7, the heat storage device 13 is clamped between the cleaning cloth 122 and the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121 along the height direction of the cleaning assembly 12. The heat storage device 13 can be clamped and fixed only by the clamping force between the cleaning cloth 122 and the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121, or can be fixed between the cleaning cloth 122 and the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121 by means of adhesion or bolt fixation. By clamping the heat storage device 13 between the cleaning cloth 122 and the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121, not only can a larger heat conduction area be obtained between the heat storage device 13 and the cleaning cloth 122, improving the heat conduction efficiency between the heat storage device 13 and the cleaning cloth 122, but also the clamping force generated by the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121 and the cleaning cloth 122 on the heat storage device 13 can also improve the adhesion between the heat storage device 13 and the cleaning cloth 122, further improving the heat conduction efficiency between the heat storage device 13 and the cleaning cloth 122. It should be noted that in other embodiments, the heat storage device 13 can also be arranged on the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121, for example, arranged on the side surface of the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121 away from the cleaning cloth 122, and the heat storage device 13 can absorb the heat of the cleaning liquid during the cleaning process of the cleaning cloth 122 and release heat to the cleaning cloth 122 during the cleaning operation of the cleaning cloth 122 through the heat conduction between the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121 and the cleaning cloth 122.

[0061] Since the heat storage device 13 is in contact with both the cleaning cloth 122 and the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121, part of the heat of the heat storage device 13 will be conducted to the air through the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121, causing the loss of heat on the heat storage device 13, which in turn will cause the heat transferred from the heat storage device 13 to the cleaning cloth 122 to decrease. In view of this, in the example of the cleaning device 10 of the present solution, the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121 is made of heat insulation material. The heat insulation material can be any heat insulation material with certain hardness and support strength, such as polyurethane, polystyrene, etc. By setting the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121 to be made of heat insulation material, the heat loss of the heat storage device 13 through the cleaning cloth mounting rack 121 can be reduced, thereby relatively increasing the heat transferred from the heat storage device 13 to the cleaning cloth 122, which is conducive to slowing down the temperature drop speed of the cleaning cloth 122 during operation. At the same time, it can also avoid the temperature rise of the machine body 11, which causes poor heat dissipation of the machine body 11, affecting the normal operation of the machine body 11.

[0062] Please refer to Figure 6, in an example of the cleaning device 10 of the present solution, the cloth mounting rack 121 is provided with a groove 1211 on the side facing the cloth 122, the cloth 122 is blocked at the opening of the groove 1211, the heat storage device 13 is accommodated in the groove 1211, and the surface of the heat storage device 13 on the side facing the cloth 122 is at least partially in contact with the cloth 122. The groove 1211 can be a circular ring structure arranged in the circumferential direction of the cloth 122, or a plurality of local groove 1211 structures arranged above the cloth 122. The cross section of the groove 1211 can be any shape such as rectangle, triangle or V shape, subject to the condition that it can accommodate the heat storage device 13. It should be noted that the cloth 122 being blocked at the opening of the groove 1211 means that the side surface of the cloth 122 facing the groove 1211 is in abutment with the opening of the groove 1211, forming a blocking relationship, and it does not necessarily mean that the cloth 122 seals the opening of the groove 1211. By providing the groove 1211 and accommodating the heat storage device 13 in the groove 1211, the probability of the heat storage device 13 contacting the outside air can be reduced, further reducing the heat loss of the heat storage device 13 to the air, thereby further improving the heat conduction from the heat storage device 13 to the cloth 122.

[0063] Please refer to Figures 3 and 7, in an example of the cleaning device 10 of the present solution, the cleaning assembly 12 further comprises a heat conducting member 14, which is arranged at the opening of the groove 1211, and the upper and lower sides of the heat conducting member 14 are in contact with the heat storage device 13 and the cloth 122 respectively. The heat conducting member 14 can be clamped and fixed at the opening of the groove 1211 by the clamping force between the cloth 122 and the groove 1211, or it can be directly fixedly connected with the groove 1211 or the cloth 122, as long as it can be clamped between the heat storage device 13 and the cloth 122, so that the two sides of the heat conducting member 14 are in contact with the heat storage device 13 and the cloth 122 respectively. The heat conducting member 14 can be of any shape, such as disc, ring, polygon, etc. The heat conducting member 14 can be of metal material, such as aluminum, copper, etc., or of graphite material, ceramic material, etc., as long as it meets the heat conduction performance requirement between the heat storage device 13 and the cloth 122. By providing the heat conducting member 14, the heat conduction efficiency between the heat storage device 13 and the cloth 122 can be improved, and at the same time, the thermal conductivity of the heat conducting member 14 can be adjusted by selecting different materials with different thermal conductivities, so as to adjust the heat transfer efficiency between the heat storage device 13 and the cloth 122, thereby enabling the heat storage device 13 to better adapt to the different operating temperature requirements of the cloth 122.

[0064] In view of the uniformity of heat conduction between the heat storage device 13 and the cleaning cloth 122, preferably, in the first embodiment of the cleaning device 10, referring to FIGS. 7-9, the heat storage device 13 is in a circular ring structure, and the heat storage device 13 is coaxially arranged with the cleaning cloth 122. The outer diameter of the heat storage device 13 can be greater than the outer diameter of the cleaning cloth 122, or can be less than or equal to the outer diameter of the cleaning cloth 122, as long as a circular ring-shaped heat conduction surface is formed between the heat storage device 13 and the cleaning cloth 122, the heat conduction requirements of the cleaning cloth 122 and the heat storage device 13 are met, and the specific area and size of the heat storage device 13 are not limited in the embodiment. Preferably, in the first embodiment, the outer diameter of the heat storage device 13 is less than the outer diameter of the cleaning cloth 122. Such an arrangement can reduce heat loss during heat transfer from the heat storage device 13 to the cleaning cloth 122, and can also reduce the probability of collision between the heat storage device 13 and external obstacles during the cleaning operation of the cleaning cloth 122.

[0065] By arranging the heat storage device 13 in a circular ring structure and coaxially arranging the heat storage device 13 with the cleaning cloth 122, a circular ring-shaped heat conduction surface can be formed between the side of the heat storage device 13 facing the cleaning cloth 122 and the cleaning cloth 122, so that the cleaning cloth 122 can receive relatively uniform heat in the circumferential direction, thereby improving the uniformity of heat received by the cleaning cloth 122 in the circumferential direction, and further improving the consistency of the cleaning effect of the cleaning cloth 122 in the operating area. At the same time, coaxial arrangement of the heat storage device 13 and the cleaning cloth 122 can facilitate positioning and installation between the heat storage device 13 and the cleaning cloth 122. It should be noted that when the heat storage device 13 is installed in the groove 1211, the groove 1211 needs to be arranged in a circular ring groove structure corresponding to the heat storage device 13.

[0066] In the first embodiment of the cleaning device 10, the heat storage device 13 includes a phase change material. The heat storage device 13 can be entirely made of a phase change material, or can be partially made of a phase change material and partially made of other heat storage materials. The phase change material can be an organic phase change material, such as paraffin, acetic acid, etc., or can be an inorganic phase change material, such as molten salt, metal or alloy, etc. The specific selection of the phase change material is determined by the heat conduction requirements between the heat storage device 13 and the cleaning cloth 122. Preferably, in the embodiment, the heat storage device 13 is entirely made of a phase change material. Since the phase change material has a high energy density, it can absorb or release a large amount of heat during the phase change process, and can store a large amount of heat energy in a relatively small volume or mass, thereby saving the installation space of the heat storage device 13 and reducing the overall mass of the cleaning assembly 12. It should be noted that the heat storage device 13 can include only a phase change material, or can also include a heat-conducting shell, and the phase change material is installed in the heat-conducting shell.

[0067] In an example of the cleaning device 10 of the present solution, referring to FIGS. 7 and 8, the heat-conducting member 14 is sealingly arranged at the opening of the groove 1211 to form a sealed cavity between the groove 1211 and the heat-conducting member 14 for accommodating the heat storage device 13. The heat-conducting member 14 can be sealingly arranged at the opening of the groove 1211 in various ways, such as by adhesive sealing, welding, or thermoplastic sealing. By forming the sealed cavity between the groove 1211 and the heat-conducting member 14, the heat storage device 13 can be accommodated in the sealed cavity, which can reduce the probability of the cleaning liquid entering the interior of the groove 1211 and causing rust of the internal components when the cleaning cloth 122 is cleaned. Meanwhile, when the heat storage device 13 is a phase-change material, the phase-change material can be directly accommodated in the sealed cavity without the need for an additional sealing shell outside the phase-change material, which can simplify the number of components to be installed and help reduce the assembly cost of the cleaning device 10.

[0068] In an example of the cleaning device 10 of the present solution, referring to FIGS. 7 and 8, the groove 1211 is provided with an outer stop ring 1212 and an inner stop ring 1213 at the opening position in the radial direction of the cleaning cloth 122. The outer stop ring 1212 and the inner stop ring 1213 can be at the same height or have a certain height difference therebetween, and can be coaxially arranged or arranged at different angles. The outer stop ring 1212 and the inner stop ring 1213 can extend in a plane in the radial direction of the cleaning cloth 122 or can be inclined. Preferably, in the present embodiment, the outer stop ring 1212 and the inner stop ring 1213 are arranged at the same height and extend in a plane in the radial direction of the cleaning cloth 122 for facilitating the molding of the groove 1211. The heat-conducting member 14 has a circular ring structure and includes an outer periphery 141 and an inner periphery 142 in the radial direction of the heat-conducting member 14. The outer periphery 141 is lapped on the upper surface of the outer stop ring 1212 and forms a first annular contact surface 143 at the position of the outer periphery 141, and the inner periphery 142 is lapped on the upper surface of the inner stop ring 1213 and forms a second annular contact surface 144 at the position of the inner periphery 142. The areas of the first annular contact surface 143 and the second annular contact surface 144 are not limited in size, but should be able to support the weight of the heat-conducting member 14 without causing large deformation in the height direction. By forming the annular contact surfaces between the heat-conducting member 14 and the groove 1211, the axial positioning of the heat-conducting member 14 on the groove 1211 can be facilitated, and the sealing connection between the heat-conducting member 14 and the opening of the groove 1211 can also be facilitated.

[0069] In an example of the cleaning device 10 of the present solution, referring to FIGS. 7 and 8, the heat-conducting member 14 is provided with a protrusion 145 between the outer periphery 141 and the inner periphery 142, the protrusion 145 protrudes towards the cloth 122 side, and the heat storage device 13 at least partially contacts the surface of the side of the protrusion 145 away from the cloth 122. The protrusion 145 can be a circular ring structure around the circumferential direction of the heat-conducting member 14, or can be a plurality of local protrusion structures arranged at intervals. In the present embodiment, the protrusion 145 is preferably a circular ring structure coaxially arranged with the groove 1211. By arranging the protrusion 145, a concave cavity region can be formed on the side of the protrusion 145 away from the cloth 122, which can relatively increase the accommodation space of the heat storage device 13 inside the groove 1211, thereby facilitating the improvement of the heat storage capacity of the heat storage device 13. In the radial direction of the cloth 122, the radial width of the protrusion 145 corresponds to the opening width of the groove 1211, that is, the protrusion 145 is clamped at the opening of the groove 1211 in the radial direction. In this way, when the heat-conducting member 14 is installed with the groove 1211, the protrusion 145 can play a role in radial positioning, facilitating the positioning and installation of the heat-conducting member 14 and the groove 1211, and forming a radial stop effect between the heat-conducting member 14 and the groove 1211, thereby reducing the probability of radial displacement of the heat-conducting member 14 relative to the groove 1211 during cleaning operation.

[0070] In an example of the cleaning device 10 of the present solution, the temperature reached by the heat storage device 13 after absorbing the heat of the cleaning liquid is any value in the range of 25-200°C, for example, it can be 25°C, 100°C, or 200°C, etc. Limiting the temperature reached by the heat storage device 13 after absorbing the heat of the cleaning liquid to the range of 25-200°C can make the cloth 122 have a better temperature during cleaning operation, meet various conventional floor cleaning requirements, and achieve better cleaning effect.

[0071] Referring to FIG. XX, in an example of the cleaning device 10 of the present solution, the cloth mounting frame 121 and the heat storage device 13 include a communication hollow area 15, and the water supplement mechanism is provided with a water outlet, the water outlet is in communication with the hollow area 15 when the cleaning assembly 12 is installed on the machine body 11. The liquid in the water supplement mechanism is discharged from the water outlet and enters the cloth 122 through the hollow area 15, thereby supplementing the liquid in the cloth 122 and realizing wet mopping of the cloth 122. By arranging the hollow area 15, the water supplement mechanism can supplement the liquid to the cloth 122 during the cleaning process of the cloth 122, so that the liquid in the water supplement mechanism enters the cloth 122, realizes wet mopping during the cleaning operation of the cloth 122, and thereby improves the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 10.

[0072] The present solution also provides a cleaning system 20, as shown in FIGS. 10-12, which comprises the cleaning device 10 in any of the above examples and a base station 21. The base station 21 comprises a body 201 and a base 211 arranged at the lower end of the body 201. The base 211 and the body 201 have a receiving cavity for receiving the cleaning device 10. The base 211 is provided with a cleaning tank 212 for containing cleaning liquid, which is located at the bottom of the receiving cavity and can accommodate the cleaning assembly 12 on the cleaning device 10. The cleaning tank 212 comprises cleaning discs 2123 in which the cleaning liquid is contained. The shape and number of the cleaning discs 2123 correspond to the shape and number of the cleaning cloths 122 on the cleaning assembly 12. Preferably, in the present embodiment, two cleaning discs 2123 are arranged in the cleaning tank 212, which are symmetrically arranged on the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212. As shown in FIG. 1, the cleaning device 10 is correspondingly provided with two cleaning cloths 122 and a cloth mounting rack 121. After the cleaning device 10 returns to the base station 21, it enters the receiving cavity and the cleaning cloths 122 on the cleaning assembly 12 enter the cleaning discs 2123, and the cleaning of the cleaning cloths 122 is achieved by the rotational movement between the cleaning cloths 122 and the cleaning discs 2123. It should be noted that the base station 21 can also include conventional components of the existing base station 21, such as an energy system, a negative pressure suction system, a sewage tank, a clean water tank, etc., which will not be described here.

[0073] In the present solution, as shown in FIG. 12, the cleaning tank 212 is provided with a heating device 22 for heating the cleaning liquid. In the prior art, a heating module is generally arranged on the waterway of the base station 21 for heating. However, the inside of the heating module is prone to scale accumulation during long-term use, which is difficult to maintain. In the present solution, the heating device 22 directly heats the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 212 of the base station 21. In this way, scale is less likely to accumulate in the cleaning tank 212. Even if scale is accumulated, the cleaning tank 212 is easy to maintain, for example, by disassembling and cleaning the cleaning tank 212.

[0074] Specifically, the heating device 22 can be arranged at any position of the cleaning tank 212, such as the bottom wall, the side wall, etc., as long as it can heat the cleaning liquid. The specific structure of the heating device 22 can be an electric heating wire module, an electric heating plate module, a phase change material heating module, etc. The heating method of the heating device 22 for the cleaning liquid is not limited, for example, it can directly heat the cleaning liquid in the cleaning disc 2123, or it can first heat the cleaning liquid entering the cleaning disc 2123 so that the heated cleaning liquid is directly introduced into the cleaning disc 2123. Since the heating device 22 is arranged in the cleaning tank 212, the distance between the heating device 22 and the cleaning tank 212 can be shortened, thereby reducing the heat loss during the transportation of the cleaning liquid, which is conducive to improving the heating efficiency of the cleaning liquid and achieving the effect of energy saving and emission reduction.

[0075] When the cleaning device 10 returns to the base station 21 after performing a cleaning operation, the cleaning assembly 12 is placed in the cleaning tank 212, and the cleaning cloth 122 is in contact with the cleaning liquid in the cleaning disc 2123. If the cleaning cloth 122 needs to be cleaned with hot water, the heating device 22 is operated to heat the cleaning liquid, and the cleaning cloth 122 is cleaned in the heated cleaning liquid. At this time, the heat storage device 13 on the cleaning device 10 absorbs heat from the cleaning liquid through the cleaning cloth 122 and stores the heat. Alternatively, during the cleaning process, the heat storage device 13 is directly in contact with the cleaning liquid, so that it can directly absorb heat from the cleaning liquid. When the cleaning cloth 122 completes the cleaning action, the cleaning device 10 is separated from the base station 21 to clean the ground. At this time, the heat storage device 13 releases heat and conducts the heat to the cleaning cloth 122, so that the cleaning cloth 122 obtains heat supplement, thereby extending the time of hot water mopping of the cleaning cloth 122 and improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning cloth 122.

[0076] In order to facilitate the control of the heating temperature of the cleaning liquid in the cleaning disc 2123, preferably, referring to FIGS. 12 and 14, in an example of the cleaning system 20 of the present scheme, the heating device 22 further comprises a temperature sensor 221. The temperature sensor 221 is arranged on the cleaning tank 212 to detect the temperature of the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 212. The temperature sensor 221 can be arranged on the bottom wall, side wall or any position of the cleaning tank 212 that can detect the temperature of the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 212. The number of temperature sensors 221 can be one or more. Preferably, in the present embodiment, the temperature sensor 221 is arranged on the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212. In this way, the detection accuracy of the temperature sensor 221 is less affected by the liquid level of the cleaning liquid. By arranging the temperature sensor 221, the heating temperature of the cleaning liquid can be monitored in real time, so that the heating temperature of the cleaning liquid can be controlled more accurately.

[0077] In one example of the cleaning system 20 of the present solution, referring to FIGS. 12 and 14, the heating device 22 is arranged on the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212 to heat the cleaning liquid and store energy in the heat storage device 13 when the cleaning cloth 122 is being cleaned. Since the cleaning tank 212 is provided with the cleaning plate 2123, the heating device 22 is arranged on the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212, i.e. the heating device 22 is arranged on the bottom wall of the cleaning plate 2123. The heating device 22 can be one, i.e. one heating device 22 simultaneously heats the cleaning liquid in multiple cleaning plates 2123 in the cleaning tank 212; or multiple, i.e. each heating device 22 corresponds to one cleaning plate 2123. Preferably, in the present embodiment, the cleaning plate 2123 is provided with two, and the heating device 22 is provided with two, i.e. each heating device 22 corresponds to one cleaning plate 2123, i.e. the bottom wall of each cleaning plate 2123 is provided with one heating device 22. The heating area of the heating device 22 can cover the entire bottom wall of the cleaning plate 2123, or partially cover the bottom wall of the cleaning plate 2123, depending on the installation and heating requirements. In the present embodiment, the bottom wall of the cleaning plate 2123 is partially provided with the heating device 22. By arranging the heating device 22 on the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 212 can be heated more uniformly.

[0078] Referring to FIGS. 12, 15 and 16, the water inlet pipeline 224 of the cleaning liquid is in thermal contact with the heating device 22 to preheat the cleaning liquid before entering the cleaning tank 212. Specifically, the upper part of the heating device 22 is in thermal contact with the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 212, i.e. the heat generated by the heating device 22 can be directly transmitted to the cleaning liquid in the cleaning plate 2123 to heat the cleaning liquid. The bottom of the cleaning plate 2123 is provided with the water inlet pipeline 224, and the cleaning liquid enters the cleaning plate 2123 through the water inlet pipeline 224. The lower part of the heating device 22 is in thermal contact with the water inlet pipeline 224 of the cleaning tank 212, i.e. the heat generated by the heating device 22 can be directly transmitted to the water inlet pipeline 224, and then transmitted to the cleaning liquid inside the water inlet pipeline 224. In this way, when the cleaning liquid flows through the water inlet pipeline 224, the heating device 22 can heat the cleaning liquid in the water inlet pipeline 224 once, i.e. complete the preheating of the cleaning liquid before entering the cleaning tank 212. When the cleaning liquid enters the cleaning plate 2123 from the water inlet pipeline 224, the heating device 22 can heat the cleaning liquid in the cleaning plate 2123 again, thereby making full use of the heat generated by the heating device 22, improving the heating efficiency of the cleaning liquid, and reducing the waiting time for heating the cleaning liquid.

[0079] In order to improve the cleaning effect of the cleaning cloth 122 in the cleaning liquid, preferably, in an example of the cleaning system 20 of the present solution, the cleaning disc 2123 comprises a bottom wall and a cleaning rib 2121, the cleaning rib 2121 is arranged on the bottom wall, the cleaning rib 2121 is smoothly and transitionally connected with the bottom wall, when the cleaning device 10 returns to the base station 21 to clean the cleaning cloth 122, the cleaning cloth 122 cooperates with the cleaning groove 212 to be cleaned, at this time, the cleaning cloth 122 can contact the bottom wall and the cleaning rib 2121 at the same time, so as to realize the cleaning of at least one of the bottom wall and the cleaning rib 2121 by the cleaning cloth 122, thereby when the cleaning cloth 122 is cleaned, the cleaning groove 212 can be cleaned at the same time through the rotation of the cleaning cloth 122.

[0080] The cleaning rib 2121 can be a long strip-shaped protruding structure, or a plurality of block-shaped protruding structures distributed at intervals, etc. The cleaning rib 2121 can be arranged one or more. Preferably, in the present embodiment, referring to FIG. 12, the bottom wall of each cleaning disc 2123 is provided with a cleaning rib 2121, and the cleaning rib 2121 is a long strip-shaped protruding structure extending from the center of the cleaning disc 2123 to the outer periphery 141. By arranging the cleaning rib 2121, the contact area and the contact force between the cleaning liquid and the cleaning cloth 122 can be increased, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning cloth 122.

[0081] In the present embodiment, referring to FIG. 12, the heating surface of the heating device 22 covers at least the cleaning rib 2121. The heating surface of the heating device 22 can completely cover the surface of the cleaning rib 2121, or partially cover the surface of the cleaning rib 2121. Preferably, in the present embodiment, the heating surface of the heating device 22 covers the entire surface of the cleaning rib 2121. That is, when the heating device 22 is heated, the surface temperature of the cleaning rib 2121 will also rise, and the cleaning liquid in contact with the surface of the cleaning rib 2121 will be heated. In this way, the heat conduction efficiency between the cleaning cloth 122 and the cleaning rib 2121 can be improved, and the heat conduction efficiency between the cleaning cloth 122 and the heat storage device 13 can be improved, and the heat storage effect of the heat storage device 13 can be improved. In another embodiment, the heating surface of the heating device 22 can also only cover part of the bottom wall of the cleaning groove 212, as long as the heating requirement of the cleaning liquid is met. In other embodiments, the heating surface of the heating device 22 can also cover the surface of part of the bottom wall and the cleaning rib 2121 at the same time.

[0082] In an example of the cleaning system 20 of the present solution, referring to FIGS. 12, 15 and 16, the heating device 22 comprises a heat-conducting disc 222 and a heating element 223, the heating element 223 is arranged on the side of the heat-conducting disc 222 away from the bottom wall of the cleaning disc 2123, and the heating element 223 generates heat which is transmitted to the cleaning liquid inside the cleaning disc 2123 through the heat-conducting disc 222. The material of the heat-conducting disc 222 can be metal, such as aluminum, copper, etc., and can also be ceramic, graphite, etc. The heating element 223 can be a heating wire, a heating sheet, a heating tube, etc. Preferably, in the present embodiment, the heating element 223 is a heat-conducting tube structure. In this way, the heating element 223 can obtain a relatively uniform heating effect in the circumferential direction. The heat-conducting disc 222 and the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212 are an integral part. It should be noted that the integral part here means that after the heat-conducting disc 222 is installed on the cleaning tank 212, it does not affect the original structure and shape of the cleaning tank 212, including but not limited to that the heat-conducting disc 222 is integrally connected with the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212. The heat-conducting disc 222 can be integrally formed on the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212 by injection molding, or can be integrally connected with the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212 by clamping connection, etc. In this way, the gap between the heat-conducting disc 222 and the bottom wall of the cleaning disc 2123 at the joint position can be reduced, which is not only beneficial to the sealing of the bottom wall of the cleaning disc 2123, but also can obtain better aesthetic performance on the bottom wall of the cleaning disc 2123.

[0083] In an example of the cleaning system 20 of the present solution, referring to FIGS. 12 and 13, the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212 comprises a recessed cavity 23 on the side facing the ground, and the recessed cavity 23 is in communication with the drain port 231 of the cleaning tank 212. The recessed cavity 23 can be located at any position of the bottom wall of the cleaning disc 2123, and the shape of the recessed part can be rectangular, sector, polygon, etc. Two cleaning discs 2123 can share one recessed cavity 23, or each can be provided with a different recessed cavity 23. Preferably, in the present embodiment, the recessed cavity 23 is arranged between the two cleaning discs 2123, and the recessed cavity 23 is in communication with both cleaning discs 2123. A water scraping part 2122 is arranged at the opening position of the recessed cavity 23, and the water scraping part 2122 is located at the joint position of the recessed cavity 23 and the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212.

[0084] Please refer to FIG. 13, the water scraping part 2122 protrudes from the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212, so as to stop part of the water on the cleaning cloth 122 from entering the cavity 23 when the cleaning cloth 122 rotates relative to the cleaning tank 212. The water scraping part 2122 can be any structure such as an inclined block structure, a prism structure, a long strip block structure, etc. that can stop part of the water on the cleaning cloth 122 from entering the cavity 23 when the cleaning cloth 122 rotates relative to the cleaning tank 212. Preferably, in the embodiment, the water scraping part 2122 is an inclined surface structure arranged at the opening position of the cavity 23, so that a relatively gentle friction force is formed when the cleaning cloth 122 contacts the water scraping part 2122, thereby reducing the probability of jamming of the cleaning cloth 122 during rotation. In the embodiment, by arranging the cavity 23 and the water scraping part 2122, the water scraping part 2122 can scrape the sewage on the cleaning cloth 122 into the cavity 23 when the cleaning cloth 122 rotates relative to the cleaning tank 2123, thereby reducing the probability of secondary pollution of the water in the cleaning tank 212 during the cleaning of the cleaning cloth 122, and further facilitating the improvement of the cleaning effect of the cleaning cloth 122.

[0085] In an example of the cleaning system 20 of the present solution, when the cleaning device 10 performs the cleaning cloth 122 cleaning action for a predetermined number of times, the heating device 22 is configured to heat for a preset time period, and the preset time period is less than the total time period of the cleaning cloth 122 cleaning action. The predetermined number of times of the cleaning device 10 is at least two, and in actual cleaning operation, the predetermined number of times is determined by the dirt condition of the cleaned ground. The total time period of the cleaning cloth 122 cleaning action refers to the total sum of the cleaning time periods of the multiple cleaning actions in the cleaning tank 212 during the completion of the predetermined number of times of the cleaning cloth 122. In this way, the heating device 22 can be prevented from heating after the completion of the cleaning cloth 122 cleaning action, thereby reducing energy waste and achieving energy saving.

[0086] In an example of the cleaning system 20 of the present solution, when the cleaning device 10 performs the cleaning cloth 122 cleaning action for a predetermined number of times, the heating device 22 is configured to stop heating before the cleaning device 10 performs the last cleaning cloth 122 cleaning action. In this way, the heating device 22 can be turned off in advance before the completion of the cleaning action, thereby facilitating the advance cooling of the heating device 22 and the base 211, and reducing the probability of scalding when the cleaning device 10 is carried after the completion of the cleaning operation.

[0087] In the example of the cleaning system 20 of the present solution, the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212 is provided with a heat insulation member 24 on the side facing the ground. The projection of the heat insulation member 24 covers the projection of the heating device 22 along the height direction of the base 211. The side of the cleaning tank 212 facing the ground is provided with a cover plate 25. The heat insulation member 24 can be the cover plate 25. The cover plate 25 is made of heat insulation material, and the heat insulation member 24 reduces the heat transferred from the heating device 22 to the ground through the cover plate 25. The heat insulation member 24 can also be a separate heat insulation part provided between the cover plate 25 and the heating device 22, which, together with the cover plate 25, blocks the heat transferred from the heating device 22 to the ground. Preferably, in the present embodiment, the heat insulation member 24 is a separate part provided between the cover plate 25 and the heating device 22, as shown in FIG. 17. The specific shape and structure of the heat insulation member 24 are not limited, as long as the projection of the heat insulation member 24 covers the projection of the heating device 22. Preferably, in the present embodiment, the shape of the heat insulation member 24 corresponds to the shape of the cover plate 25, and the heat insulation member 24 is fixedly installed on the cover plate 25. In this way, the heat insulation member 24 is installed outside the cover plate 25, and a larger heat insulation area can be obtained at the position of the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 212, thereby improving the heat insulation effect.

[0088] The present solution provides a cleaning assembly 12, which includes a cloth mounting rack 121 and a cloth 122 connected to the cloth mounting rack 121. At least one of the cloth mounting rack 121 and the cloth 122 is connected to a heat storage device 13. The heat storage device 13 is used to absorb heat when the cloth 122 is cleaned by cleaning liquid, and release heat to the cloth 122 when the cloth 122 performs cleaning work. In the cleaning assembly 12 of the present embodiment, the cloth mounting rack 121, the cloth 122, and the heat storage device 13 have the same setting structure and beneficial effects as described above in the related description of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0089] In summary, the present application provides a cleaning device 10, a cleaning system 20 and a cleaning assembly 12, which is provided with a heat storage device 13 on the cleaning assembly 12, and the heat storage device 13 is in thermal connection with the cleaning cloth 122, so as to absorb the heat of the cleaning liquid when the cleaning cloth 122 is cleaned, and release heat to the cleaning cloth when the cleaning cloth 122 is used for cleaning. In this way, the heat storage device 13 can transfer heat to the cleaning cloth 122 when the cleaning cloth 122 is used for cleaning, and the cleaning cloth 122 can be heated by the heat storage device 13 during cleaning, so as to realize hot mopping of the cleaning cloth 122, which is beneficial to remove stubborn stains, oil stains and the like on the ground. Therefore, compared with normal temperature water mopping, the cleaning effect on the ground can be improved. At the same time, since the heat storage device 13 only needs to absorb the heat of the cleaning liquid when the cleaning cloth 122 is cleaned, and does not need to additionally provide a heat source for the cleaning assembly 12, the structure is simple and easy to realize. At the same time, since the cleaning tank 212 is provided with a heating device 22, the cleaning assembly 12 is placed in the cleaning tank 212, the cleaning cloth 122 is in contact with the cleaning liquid in the cleaning disc 2123, and if the cleaning cloth 122 needs to be cleaned with hot water, the heating device is operated to heat the cleaning liquid, and the cleaning cloth 122 is cleaned in the heated cleaning liquid. At this time, the heat storage device 13 on the cleaning device 10 absorbs the heat in the cleaning liquid through the cleaning cloth 122 and stores the heat. When the cleaning cloth 122 completes the cleaning action, the cleaning device 10 is separated from the base station 21 to clean the ground. At this time, the heat storage device 13 releases heat and conducts heat to the cleaning cloth 122, so that the cleaning cloth 122 obtains heat supplement, thereby extending the time of hot water mopping of the cleaning cloth 122 and improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning cloth 122.
