[0054] Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of the clean base station 100 provided in this embodiment of the application; Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of the clean base station 100 provided in this embodiment of the application; and Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view along direction AA in Figure 2. Before describing the clean base station 100 provided in this embodiment, the following directional definitions are made: the clean base station 100 can be calibrated by the following three mutually perpendicular axes: the X-axis, the Y-axis, and the Z-axis. Referring to Figures 1-3, the Z-axis is the direction extending vertically upwards along the bottom surface of the clean base station 100; the Y-axis is the direction from the back to the front of the clean base station 100; and the X-axis is the width direction of the clean base station 100.
[0055] The cleaning base station 100 provided in this embodiment includes a frame 1, a dust collection fan assembly 2, and an air damper assembly 3. Please refer to Figure 1, which shows the appearance of the cleaning base station 100, and Figure 2, which shows the internal structure of the cleaning base station 100. Figure 2 shows the frame 1 and the dust collection fan assembly 2.
[0056] The cleaning base station 100 provided in this embodiment is used in conjunction with cleaning equipment (such as a cleaning robot). The cleaning base station 100 is used to store cleaning equipment in an idle state and to provide charging, cloth washing, and internal cleaning of the cleaning equipment. Referring to Figures 1 and 2, the cleaning base station 100 has a receiving compartment 15 for accommodating the cleaning equipment. When the cleaning equipment returns to the cleaning base station 100, it is stored in the receiving compartment 15. In addition, the cleaning base station 100 also includes a cleaning component located in the bottom space of the cleaning base station 100, which is below the receiving compartment 15. Therefore, when the cleaning equipment is stored in the cleaning base station, the cleaning component is located below the cleaning equipment, and can perform high-temperature cleaning of the cloth at the bottom of the cleaning equipment. During high-temperature cleaning, a large amount of water vapor is generated in the bottom space.
[0057] Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. A dust suction port 19 is formed on the frame 1. The dust suction port 19 is connected to the receiving chamber 15. When the cleaning equipment returns to the cleaning base station 100, the dust suction port 19 of the cleaning base station 100 is connected to the garbage discharge port on the cleaning equipment.
[0058] Please refer to Figure 2. A dust bag placement space 110 is formed on the frame 1. The dust bag placement space 110 is connected to the dust suction port 19 through a dust exhaust duct. Please refer to Figure 2, which shows the exhaust outlet 111 of the dust exhaust duct. The dust bag placement space 110 is connected to the exhaust outlet 111. Also, please refer to Figure 2, the dust bag placement space 110 is connected to the dust collection fan assembly 2. The dust bag placement space 110 and the dust collection fan assembly 2 are located in the upper space of the cleaning base station 100. The upper space is located above the receiving chamber 15. Please refer to Figure 2, which shows that the dust bag placement space 110 and the dust collection fan assembly 2 are located above the receiving chamber 15.
[0059] When the cleaning equipment returns to the cleaning base station 100, the suction port 19 of the cleaning base station 100 connects to the waste discharge port on the cleaning equipment. When the dust collection fan assembly 2 starts, it draws air from one side of the dust bag placement space 110. Under negative pressure, the waste temporarily stored in the cleaning equipment is sucked into the dust bag in the dust bag placement space 110 through the suction port 19 and the dust discharge duct, thus cleaning the waste inside the cleaning equipment and ensuring the cleaning effect of the next cleaning. When the dust bag is full, the user can remove the dust bag from the cleaning base station 100 and replace it with a new dust bag in the dust bag placement space 110.
[0060] Please refer to Figures 3 and 4. Figure 3 is a schematic diagram from one perspective after the cross-section along the AA direction in Figure 2, and Figure 4 is a schematic diagram from another perspective after the cross-section along the AA direction in Figure 2. As described above, the Y-axis is the direction from the back to the front of the cleaning base station 100. Figure 3 shows the dust collection fan assembly 2 from the rear side of the cleaning base station 100.
[0061] In this embodiment, an exhaust duct 11 is formed on the frame 1, as shown in Figure 3. The exhaust duct 11 is located on the rear side of the receiving chamber 15. Figure 2 shows the rear arc plate 16, which forms the rear cavity wall of the receiving chamber 15. In Figure 3, the Y-axis represents the direction of the cleaning base station 100 from the back to the front. Along the direction indicated by the arrow on the Y-axis, the rear arc plate 16 is located on the front side of the exhaust duct 11. The outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2 is connected to the exhaust duct 11. That is, when the dust collection fan assembly 2 is working, it draws air from one side of the dust bag placement space 110 and exhausts air from the outlet through the exhaust duct 11.
[0062] In existing technologies, the air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly is usually always connected to the exhaust duct. However, during the high-temperature mop washing process at the cleaning station, a large amount of water vapor is generated in the bottom space of the cleaning station. The dust collection fan assembly is located in the upper space of the cleaning station. If the air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly is always connected to the exhaust duct, the generated water vapor will enter the upper space of the cleaning equipment where the dust collection fan assembly is located through the exhaust duct. The water vapor will accelerate the corrosion of the upper space structural components and greatly increase the risk of electrical accidents inside the cleaning station, seriously endangering the service life of the cleaning station and the safety of customers. Based on this, the cleaning base station 100 provided in this embodiment is provided with a damper assembly 3 on the frame 1. The damper assembly 3 changes the connection state between the exhaust duct 11 and the outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2. That is, when the dust collection fan assembly 2 is working, the damper assembly 3 is opened so that the exhaust duct 11 is connected to the outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2. When the dust collection fan assembly 2 is not working, the damper assembly 3 is closed so that the exhaust duct 11 is not connected to the outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2.
[0063] Specifically, when it is necessary to clean the garbage inside the cleaning equipment, the dust collection fan assembly 2 is started and the damper assembly 3 is opened so that the exhaust duct 11 is connected to the air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2, thereby ensuring that the garbage inside the cleaning equipment can be smoothly sucked into the dust bag in the dust bag placement space 110; after the garbage inside the cleaning equipment is cleaned, the damper assembly 3 is closed so that the exhaust duct 11 is not connected to the air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2. At this time, even if the cleaning base station 100 generates a large amount of water vapor by washing the mop at high temperature, the water vapor will not enter the upper space of the cleaning base station 100 through the exhaust duct 11, thereby ensuring the safety of the electrical components in the upper space.
[0064] In addition, in the scenario where the cleaning base station 100 is simultaneously cleaning the internal debris of the cleaning equipment and washing the mop of the cleaning equipment at high temperature, although the damper assembly 3 is in the open state, the airflow blown out by the dust collection fan assembly 2 through the exhaust duct 11 will prevent the water vapor generated by the high temperature washing of the mop from entering the upper space of the cleaning base station 100 through the exhaust duct 11. After the internal debris of the cleaning equipment is cleaned, the damper assembly 3 can be quickly closed so that water vapor will not enter the upper space of the cleaning equipment through the exhaust duct 11.
[0065] In this embodiment, regarding the opening and closing of the damper assembly 3, in one specific example, the damper assembly 3 can be opened by the airflow discharged from the dust collection fan assembly 2, and when the dust collection fan assembly 2 stops working, the damper assembly 3 resets under its own elastic force; or, in another specific example, a driving device can be used to change the opening and closing state of the damper assembly 3, that is, when the dust collection fan assembly 2 is working, the driving device drives the damper assembly 3 to open; when the dust collection fan assembly 2 stops working, the driving device drives the damper assembly 3 to close.
[0066] The cleaning base station 100 provided in this embodiment is equipped with a damper assembly 3 on the frame 1, which can change the connection state between the exhaust duct 11 and the air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2. That is, when the dust collection fan assembly 2 is working, the damper assembly 3 is opened to connect the exhaust duct 11 and the air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2. When the dust collection fan assembly 2 is not working, the damper assembly 3 is closed, so that the exhaust duct 11 and the air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2 are not connected. This can prevent a large amount of water vapor generated during the high-temperature mop washing process from entering the upper space of the cleaning base station 100 through the exhaust duct 11, thereby improving safety.
[0067] Regarding the position of the damper assembly 3 on the frame 1, in one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3. The frame 1 includes a middle plate 12, on which an air vent 121 is provided (the air vent 121 is not shown in Figure 3). A dust collection fan assembly 2 is provided above the middle plate 12, and an exhaust duct 11 is provided below the middle plate 12. The damper assembly 3 is provided on the middle plate 12 and is used to open or close the air vent 121.
[0068] Please refer to Figure 3. The Z-axis is the direction that extends vertically upward along the bottom surface of the cleaning base station 100. Combined with the position of the exhaust duct 11 and the dust collection fan assembly 2 relative to the middle plate 12 shown in Figure 3, it can be seen that the exhaust duct 11 is set below the middle plate 12 and the dust collection fan assembly 2 is set above the middle plate 12.
[0069] Please refer to Figures 3 and 8, which illustrate the damper assembly 3 installed on the middle plate 12. When the dust collection fan assembly 2 is in operation, the damper assembly 3 opens the air outlet 121, thereby connecting the exhaust duct 11 with the air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2; as shown in Figure 9, when the dust collection fan assembly 2 is not in operation, the damper assembly 3 closes the air outlet 121, thereby disconnecting the exhaust duct 11 from the air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2.
[0070] Referring to Figure 3, the preferred damper assembly 3 is disposed within the exhaust duct 11, which can make full use of the space within the exhaust duct 11.
[0071] In this embodiment, by using the damper assembly 3 to open and close the air outlet 121, the connection between the exhaust duct 11 and the air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2 can be changed, while maintaining a simple structure.
[0072] Regarding the frame 2, in one embodiment, please refer to Figures 2 and 3. The frame 1 includes a bottom shell structure 17 and a middle shell structure 18. The bottom shell structure 17 is located below the middle shell structure 18. The middle plate 12 belongs to the middle shell structure 18, and the exhaust duct 11 is formed on the bottom shell structure 17.
[0073] Please refer to Figure 5, which shows that the damper assembly 3 is disposed on the middle plate 12 and the damper assembly 3 is in a closed state. In one embodiment, a connector 4 is disposed on the side of the middle plate 12 facing the exhaust duct 11, and the damper assembly 3 is supported on the middle plate 12 by the connector 4.
[0074] Please refer to Figure 5, which illustrates the connector 4. Preferably, there are two connectors 4 to securely fix the damper assembly 3 onto the middle plate 12.
[0075] Regarding the structure of the damper assembly 3, in one embodiment, please refer to Figures 5 and 6. The damper assembly 3 includes a damper 31, a rotating shaft 32, and an elastic reset member 33. One end of the damper 31 is provided with a connecting part 34, the rotating shaft 32 passes through the connecting part 34, and the rotating shaft 32 is supported on the middle plate 12 by the connecting member 4. The elastic reset member 33 is connected to the damper 31 for closing the damper 31.
[0076] Please refer to Figure 5, which illustrates the damper 31, the rotating shaft 32, the elastic reset member 33, and the connecting part 34. The connecting part 34 is located at one end of the damper 31, and preferably the damper 31 and the connecting part 34 are integrally formed.
[0077] Please refer to Figure 5. In a specific example, there are two connecting parts 34, which are spaced apart on the damper 31 to facilitate the stable rotational opening and closing of the damper 31.
[0078] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 32 passes through the connecting part 34. Preferably, there are two connecting parts 4, and the two connecting parts 4 are respectively arranged at one end of the rotating shaft 32, so as to stably limit the damper assembly 3 on the middle plate 12.
[0079] In this embodiment, the elastic reset member 33 is preferably a torsion spring. Please refer to Figure 6, which shows the elastic reset member 33 sleeved on the rotating shaft 32. One end of the elastic reset member 33 abuts against the damper 31, and the other end abuts against the middle plate 12. There is more than one elastic reset member 33. When the damper 31 is opened, the elastic reset member 33 is in a compressed state.
[0080] In one scenario, when cleaning the internal debris of the cleaning equipment, the damper 31 can be easily blown open by the airflow generated by the dust collection fan assembly 2 to reduce energy loss. After cleaning the internal debris of the cleaning equipment, the damper 31 can quickly reset and close the air vent 121 on the middle plate 12 under the action of the elastic reset member 33. Based on the above scenario, two performance requirements for the elastic reset member 33 as a torsion spring are extracted: ① When the damper 31 is in the closed state, the torque provided by the torsional angle of the elastic reset member 33 at this position is just enough to satisfy the damper 31 being in the closed state; ② When the damper 31 is blown open, the torsional angle of the elastic reset member 33 increases, but the change in torque is required to be as small as possible. Based on the above two performance requirements, the parameters of the elastic reset member 33 are set as follows: First, the constant K value of the elastic reset member 33 should be reduced as much as possible (the constant K value is the elastic coefficient, which is a physical quantity describing the ability of the elastic member to return to its original shape when subjected to external force. The larger the value, the harder the elastic member and the smaller the deformation), so as to meet the second performance requirement of the elastic reset member 33; Second, when the damper 31 is in the closed state, the initial torsion angle of the elastic reset member 33 needs to be increased so that, under the condition that the K value of the elastic reset member 33 is low, the damper 31 can rely on the action of the elastic reset member 33 to maintain the damper 31 in the closed state and can quickly reset after opening.
[0081] In an example based on the damper assembly 3 including the damper 31, the rotating shaft 32 and the elastic reset member 33, in one embodiment, the damper 31, the connecting part 34 and the rotating shaft 32 are an integral structure, and the rotating shaft 32 is rotatably connected to the connecting member 4, which is beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency of the damper assembly 3.
[0082] In this embodiment, the damper 31, the connecting part 34, and the rotating shaft 32 can be made of metal to improve the strength of the damper assembly 3; or, the damper 31, the connecting part 34, and the rotating shaft 32 can be made of plastic to reduce the cost of the damper assembly 3.
[0083] In this embodiment, it is preferable that the area where the rotating shaft 32 contacts the connector 4 is a smooth surface, and the area where the connector 4 contacts the rotating shaft 32 is a smooth surface, so that the rotating shaft 32 can rotate relative to the connector 4.
[0084] In an example based on the damper assembly 3 including damper 31, rotating shaft 32 and elastic reset member 33, in one embodiment, the rotating shaft 32 and the connecting part 34 are separate structures, and the rotating shaft 32 and the connecting part 34 are rotatably connected or the rotating shaft 32 and the connecting member 4 are rotatably connected.
[0085] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 32 and the connecting part 34 are separate structures. Preferably, the rotating shaft 32 and the connecting part 34 are made of different materials. For example, the damper 31 and the connecting part 34 are an integral structure, and the damper 31 and the connecting part 34 are made of plastic, while the rotating shaft 32 is made of metal.
[0086] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 32 can be rotatably connected to the connecting part 34, and the rotating shaft 32 can be fixed on the connecting member 4; or, the rotating shaft 32 can be rotatably connected to the connecting member 4, and the rotating shaft 32 and the connecting part 34 can be tightly fitted.
[0087] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 32 and the connecting part 34 are separate structures, which makes it easy to process the rotating shaft 32 into a smooth surface component so that the rotating shaft 32 can rotate relative to the connecting part 34 or the connecting member 4.
[0088] Regarding the structure of the connector 4, in one embodiment, the connector 4 is a snap-fit, and the rotating shaft 32 is snapped onto the connector 4.
[0089] In this embodiment, by setting the connector 4 as a snap-fit, the rotating shaft 32 can be quickly snapped onto the connector 4, thereby enabling the damper assembly 3 to be quickly supported on the middle plate 12 via the connector 4.
[0090] Regarding the specific structure of the connector 4, in one specific example, the connector 4 is C-shaped and has a notch. The rotating shaft 32 is pushed into the connector 4 through the notch so that the rotating shaft 32 is locked onto the connector 4.
[0091] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 5. A limiting rib 5 is provided on the side of the middle plate 12 facing the exhaust duct 11. There are two limiting ribs 5, which are spaced apart along the length of the rotating shaft 32, and the rotating shaft 32 is located between the two limiting ribs 5.
[0092] Please refer to Figure 5, which shows the limiting rib 5 located on the rotating shaft 32. By setting the limiting rib 5, the situation where the rotating shaft 32 moves along its own axis direction and causes the rotating shaft 32 to detach from the connecting piece 4 is prevented.
[0093] Preferably, the limiting rib 5 is integrally formed with the middle plate 12.
[0094] In this embodiment, it is preferable that there is a gap between the end of the rotating shaft 32 and the corresponding limiting rib 5, so as to reduce the influence of the limiting rib 5 on the rotation of the rotating shaft 32.
[0095] Please refer to Figure 7, which illustrates the exhaust duct 11. Regarding the formation of the exhaust duct 11, in one embodiment, the frame 1 includes a damper 13 and a channel body plate 14. The damper 13 and the channel body plate 14 are connected and form the exhaust duct 11. The damper assembly 3 is located inside the exhaust duct 11. When the damper assembly 3 is in the open state, the damper assembly 3 abuts against the damper 13.
[0096] Please refer to Figure 7, which shows the damper 13 and the main channel plate 14. The damper 13 and the main channel plate 14 form an exhaust duct 11.
[0097] Please refer to Figure 8, which shows the damper assembly 3 in the open state, and Figure 9, which shows the damper assembly 3 in the closed state. When the damper assembly 3 is in the closed state, the damper 31 of the damper assembly 3 is in contact with the middle plate 12, and the damper 31 blocks the upper air vent 121 of the middle plate 12, so that the exhaust duct 11 cannot connect with the air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2 through the air vent 121. When the damper assembly 3 is in the open state, as shown in Figure 8, the damper 31 of the damper assembly 3 is away from the upper air vent 121 of the middle plate 12, so that the exhaust duct 11 connects with the air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2 through the air vent 121.
[0098] When the damper assembly 3 is in the open state, as shown in Figure 8, the damper 31 is in contact with the damper baffle 13. That is, when the damper 31 is in the open state under the action of the airflow blown out by the dust collection fan assembly 2, the damper baffle 13 can limit the opening angle of the damper 31.
[0099] In this embodiment, by placing the damper assembly 3 inside the exhaust duct 11, the space of the exhaust duct 11 can be fully utilized. At the same time, the damper baffle 13 can also limit the opening angle of the damper 31.
[0100] Regarding the positional relationship between the damper baffle 13 and the channel body plate 14, in one embodiment, the channel body plate 14 has a clearance notch 142 near the top of the middle plate 12, and the damper baffle 13 is located at the clearance notch 142. Please refer to Figure 11, which is a cross-sectional view of the damper baffle 13 and the channel body plate 14 in a non-connected state. Figure 11 shows the clearance notch 142 on the channel body plate 14. Figure 11 is a view of the damper baffle 13 and the channel body plate 14 in a non-connected state, and Figure 12 is a view of the damper baffle 13 installed on the channel body plate 14.
[0101] In this embodiment, the damper baffle 13 and the channel main body plate 14 are two parts, that is, the damper baffle 13 and the channel main body plate 14 are not integrally formed structures.
[0102] The main channel plate 14 includes a lower side plate 141 located below the damper baffle 13, as shown in Figure 8. The main channel plate 14 is a one-piece molded structure. Due to the tight internal structural layout of the cleaning base station 100, the position of the lower side plate 141 is fixed. If the damper baffle 13 were removed, and the lower side plate 141 extended vertically upwards to the middle plate 12, it would interfere with the damper assembly 3. Therefore, this embodiment takes into account the actual situation and provides an avoidance notch 142 at the top of the main channel plate 14 to assemble the damper baffle 13 onto the main channel plate 14. This allows the exhaust duct 11 to be formed by the damper baffle 13 and the main channel plate 14, and also allows the damper baffle 13 to avoid components such as the rotating shaft 32 on the damper assembly 3.
[0103] Regarding the connection between the damper 13 and the channel body plate 14, in one example, the damper 13 and the channel body plate 14 are detachably connected; in another example, the damper 13 and the channel body plate 14 are not detachably connected, for example, the damper 13 and the channel body plate 14 are bonded together.
[0104] In this embodiment, by connecting the damper baffle 13 and the channel body plate 14 together to form the exhaust duct 11, not only can the rotating shaft 32 and other components on the damper assembly 3 be avoided, but the manufacturing process can also be made more convenient.
[0105] As described above, the frame 1 includes a bottom shell structure 17 and a middle shell structure 18. The bottom shell structure 17 is located below the middle shell structure 18. Please refer to Figure 7, which shows that the damper baffle 13 is connected to the channel main body plate 14 to form a cylindrical structure. In one example, the damper baffle 13 and the channel main body plate 14 belong to the bottom shell structure 17.
[0106] In one embodiment, where the damper baffle 13 and the main channel plate 14 are part of the bottom shell structure 17, there is a gap between the damper baffle 13 and the middle plate 12 at one end near the middle plate 12 (refer back to Figure 5). An annular limiting plate 7 is provided on the side of the middle plate 12 facing the exhaust duct 11. One end of the damper baffle 13 and the main channel plate 14 is inserted into the annular limiting plate 7, and both the damper baffle 13 and the main channel plate 14 are in contact with the circumferential inner surface of the annular limiting plate 7. In this embodiment, by adopting a structure where the damper baffle 13 and the main channel plate 14 are in contact with the circumferential inner surface of the annular limiting plate 7, the airflow blown by the dust collection fan assembly 2 is discharged through the exhaust duct 11, while facilitating the assembly of the frame 1 in the cleaning base station 100.
[0107] Regarding the damper 13, in one embodiment, please refer to Figure 8. The damper 13 includes a vertical plate 131 and a bottom horizontal plate 132. One end of the vertical plate 131 is close to the middle plate 12, and the bottom horizontal plate 132 is disposed at the other end of the vertical plate 131 away from the middle plate 12. The bottom horizontal plate 132 extends in the direction of entering the exhaust duct 11 so that the bottom horizontal plate 132 can be connected to the lower side plate 141 of the channel body plate 14.
[0108] In this embodiment, one end of the vertical plate 131 is close to the middle plate 12, that is, one end of the vertical plate 131 can be in contact with the middle plate 12, or there can be a gap between one end of the vertical plate 131 and the middle plate 12.
[0109] The damper 13 and the main channel plate 14 together form an exhaust duct 11. The inner sides of the damper 13 and the main channel plate 14 form the duct wall of the exhaust duct 11. In this embodiment, the bottom horizontal plate 132 is preferably set on the inner side of the vertical plate 131.
[0110] Please refer to Figure 8. From the end where the bottom horizontal plate 132 is connected to the vertical plate 131 to the end of the bottom horizontal plate 132 away from the vertical plate 131, the bottom horizontal plate 132 extends in the direction of entering the exhaust duct 11.
[0111] In this embodiment, by setting the bottom horizontal plate 132 to extend into the exhaust duct 11, not only can the damper baffle 13 be connected to the lower side plate 141 of the main body plate 14 of the channel, but the vertical plate 131 can also avoid components such as the rotating shaft 32 on the damper assembly 3.
[0112] Regarding the connection structure between the bottom horizontal plate 132 and the lower side plate 141, in one example, the bottom horizontal plate 132 is provided with a slot 1321, the lower side plate 141 is inserted into the slot 1321, and a snap-fit structure 6 is also provided between the bottom horizontal plate 132 and the lower side plate 141.
[0113] In this example, the width of the slot 1321 can be set to be slightly larger than the thickness of the lower side plate 141. That is, by inserting the slot 1321 into the lower side plate 141, the damper baffle 13 can be positioned on the lower side plate 141 first, and then the bottom horizontal plate 132 can be fixed to the lower side plate 141 by the snap-fit structure 6.
[0114] Regarding the snap-fit structure 6, preferably as shown in Figure 8, an extension plate 133 extending away from the vertical plate 131 is provided on the bottom horizontal plate 132, and the extension plate 133 is in contact with the lower side plate 141. The snap-fit structure 6 includes a snap-fit hole and a snap-fit protrusion 61 located in the snap-fit hole. The snap-fit hole is provided on one of the extension plate 133 and the lower side plate 141, and the snap-fit protrusion 61 is provided on the other. Please refer to Figure 9, which shows that the snap-fit hole is provided on the extension plate 133 and the snap-fit protrusion 61 is provided on the lower side plate 141.
[0115] In this example, one or more extension plates 133 are provided on the bottom horizontal plate 132. For example, two extension plates 133 can be provided at intervals on the bottom horizontal plate 132. Each extension plate 133 is provided with a snap-fit structure 6 between it and the lower side plate 141 to improve the connection strength between the bottom horizontal plate 132 and the lower side plate 141.
[0116] In this example, the bottom horizontal plate 132 and the extension plate 133 are preferably integrally formed.
[0117] In this example, the use of the lower side plate 141 to insert into the slot 1321 and the snap-fit structure 6 between the bottom horizontal plate 132 and the lower side plate 141 facilitates the stable connection of the bottom horizontal plate 132 to the lower side plate 141.
[0118] Regarding the connection structure between the bottom horizontal plate 132 and the lower side plate 141 of the channel body plate 14, in one example, the bottom horizontal plate 132 is provided with a slot 1321, into which the lower side plate 141 is inserted. That is, in this example, when the lower side plate 141 is inserted into the slot 1321, the lower side plate 141 is tightly fitted within the slot 1321. The connection between the bottom horizontal plate 132 and the lower side plate 141 is achieved through a plug-in method, which is a simple connection method.
[0119] Regarding the connection structure between the bottom horizontal plate 132 and the lower side plate 141 of the channel main body plate 14, in one example, the bottom horizontal plate 132 and the channel main body plate 14 are connected by a snap-fit structure 6. In this example, connecting the bottom horizontal plate 132 and the channel main body plate 14 via the snap-fit structure 6 allows for quick installation of both.
[0120] Regarding the structure of the vertical plate 131, in one embodiment, please refer to FIG10. The vertical plate 131 includes a middle vertical plate portion 1311, a left vertical plate portion 1312, and a right vertical plate 1313. The left vertical plate portion 1312 and the right vertical plate 1313 are respectively disposed on the left and right sides of the middle vertical plate portion 1311. The middle vertical plate portion 1311, the left vertical plate portion 1312, and the right vertical plate 1313 are all connected to the bottom horizontal plate 132.
[0121] Please refer to Figure 10, which illustrates the middle vertical plate 1311, the left vertical plate 1312, and the right vertical plate 1313. The left vertical plate 1312 contacts the corresponding edge of the channel body plate 14, and the right vertical plate 1313 contacts the corresponding edge of the channel body plate 14. Preferably, the middle vertical plate 1311, the left vertical plate 1312, and the right vertical plate 1313 are integrally formed structures.
[0122] In one embodiment, in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the exhaust duct 11, at least one end face of the vertical plate 131 is a stepped structure 1314, and both end faces of the vertical plate 131 are respectively attached to the edge of the corresponding side of the clearance notch 142.
[0123] Please refer to Figure 13, which is a partial enlarged view of point A in Figure 12. Figure 13 illustrates the stepped structure 1314. Regarding the stepped structure 1314, as shown in Figure 13, one side end face of the vertical plate 131 includes a first mating surface 1315, a second mating surface 1316, and a third mating surface 1317. These mating surfaces extend along the height direction of the vertical plate 131. The first mating surface 1315 and the second mating surface 1316 are distributed along the thickness direction of the vertical plate 131. The first mating surface 1315 passes through the third mating surface 1317. 17 is connected to the second mating surface 1316, and the first mating surface 1315 and the third mating surface 1317 are on different planes. The first mating surface 1315, the second mating surface 1316 and the third mating surface 1317 form a stepped structure 1314. The first mating surface 1315, the second mating surface 1316 and the third mating surface 1317 are all in contact with the edge on the same side of the clearance notch 142, that is, the edge of the clearance notch 142 that mates with the stepped structure 1314 is also stepped.
[0124] In this embodiment, preferably, both side surfaces of the vertical plate 131 are stepped structures 1314 in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the exhaust duct 11.
[0125] In the example of the vertical plate 131 including the middle vertical plate portion 1311, the left vertical plate portion 1312 and the right vertical plate 1313, please refer to Figures 12 and 13. The end face of the left vertical plate portion 1312 away from the middle vertical plate portion 1311 forms a stepped structure 1314, and the end face of the right vertical plate 1313 away from the middle vertical plate portion 1311 forms a stepped structure 1314.
[0126] In this embodiment, a stepped structure 1314 is provided on the left end face and / or right end face of the vertical plate 131 so that the vertical plate 131 and the channel main plate 14 can fit together better to form an exhaust duct 11, so that the air blown out by the dust collection fan assembly 2 is blown to the bottom space of the cleaning base station 100 through the exhaust duct 11, and then discharged to the outside of the cleaning base station 100 through the bottom space of the cleaning base station 100.
[0127] Please refer back to Figures 1 and 2. A receiving compartment 15 for accommodating cleaning equipment is formed on the frame 1. In one embodiment, a baffle 8 is provided on the side wall of the receiving compartment 15. When the cleaning equipment is located inside the receiving compartment 15, the baffle 8 contacts the circumferential side of the cleaning equipment. Please refer to Figures 1 and 2, which illustrate the baffle 8.
[0128] The cleaning base station 100 includes a cleaning component located in the bottom space of the cleaning base station 100, below the receiving chamber 15. When the cleaning equipment is stored inside the cleaning base station, the cleaning component can perform high-temperature cleaning on the cloths on the cleaning equipment. High-temperature cleaning generates a large amount of water vapor. When the receiving chamber 15 is not equipped with a baffle 8, a large amount of water vapor will overflow upwards through the gap between the side wall of the receiving chamber 15 and the cleaning equipment. If a large amount of water vapor leaks to the outside of the cleaning base station 100, it will cause water vapor condensation on the external surface of the cleaning base station 100 and the surface of the usage environment, affecting the user experience. Furthermore, the leaked water vapor during use may cause burns to the user. In this embodiment, a baffle 8 is provided on the side wall of the receiving chamber 15. The baffle 8 has the function of preventing water vapor below the receiving chamber 15 from overflowing upwards, thus sealing the water vapor in the bottom space of the cleaning base station 100 as much as possible and avoiding various risks caused by the overflow of a large amount of water vapor.
[0129] Regarding the position of the baffle 8 on the receiving compartment 15, in one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 and 2. The frame 1 includes a rear arc plate 16, and the baffle 8 is disposed along the lower edge of the rear arc plate 16.
[0130] As mentioned earlier, the Y-axis represents the direction of the cleaning base station 100 from the back to the front. Please refer to Figure 7. Along the direction indicated by the arrow on the Y-axis, the front side of the rear arc plate 16 is the receiving compartment 15. Please refer to Figure 7, which shows that the baffle 8 is set along the lower edge of the rear arc plate 16.
[0131] Please refer to Figure 7. The frame 1 includes two rear arc plates 16, with other positioning structures for cooperation with cleaning equipment located between the two rear arc plates 16. A stop strip 8 is provided on the lower edge of each rear arc plate 16. Please refer to Figure 7. Since the rear arc plate 16 is an arc-shaped plate, the stop strip 8 is also arc-shaped.
[0132] Please refer to Figure 7. A stop bar 8 is provided on the lower edge of each rear arc plate 16; or, two or more stop bars 8 may be provided on each rear arc plate 16, with each stop bar 8 distributed sequentially along the bending direction of the rear arc plate 16.
[0133] In this embodiment, the baffle 8 can be easily assembled by using a baffle 8 set along the lower edge of the rear arc plate 16.
[0134] In one embodiment, the baffle 8 is made of an elastic material. When the cleaning equipment is housed inside the cleaning base station, the baffle 8 undergoes elastic deformation, which allows the baffle 8 to fit better against the cleaning equipment, so as to seal water vapor in the bottom space of the cleaning base station 100 as much as possible and avoid various risks caused by the overflow of a large amount of water vapor.
[0135] Preferably, the baffle 8 is made of silicone.
[0136] Regarding the connection structure between the stop bar 8 and the rear arc plate 16, the stop bar 8 can be fixed to the rear arc plate 16 using screws or bolts or other connecting parts. Alternatively, in one embodiment, please refer back to Figure 9, the rear arc plate 16 is provided with a plurality of snap-fit protrusions 161, and the stop bar 8 is provided with a plurality of mating holes. The mating holes are distributed along the length direction of the stop bar 8, and the mating holes correspond one-to-one with the snap-fit protrusions 161. The snap-fit protrusions 161 are respectively inserted into the corresponding mating holes.
[0137] In this embodiment, the mating hole and the snap-fit protrusion 161 are tightly fitted together, so that the stop bar 8 is inserted into the mating hole through the snap-fit protrusion 161 to be fixed on the rear arc plate 16.
[0138] In a specific example, the mating hole is a circular hole, and the snap-fit protrusion 161 is cylindrical.
[0139] Regarding the position of the snap-fit protrusion 16 on the rear arc plate 16, in one example, the snap-fit protrusion 16 is distributed on the bottom end surface of the rear arc plate 16, and in another example, the snap-fit protrusion 16 is distributed on the back side surface of the rear arc plate 16.
[0140] Regarding the shape of the stop bar 8, in one embodiment, please refer to FIG9. The stop bar 8 includes a stop bar connecting portion 81 and a stop bar abutting portion 82. Both the stop bar connecting portion 81 and the stop bar abutting portion 82 extend along the length direction of the stop bar 8. The stop bar abutting portion 82 is disposed on one side of the stop bar connecting portion 81 and the two are connected. The stop bar connecting portion 81 is connected to the rear arc plate 16. The stop bar abutting portion 82 is located on the front side of the rear arc plate 16. Please refer to FIG9. The stop bar abutting portion 82 extends from the end connected to the stop bar connecting portion 81 to the end away from the stop bar connecting portion 81. The stop bar abutting portion 82 extends downward or upward at an angle.
[0141] As mentioned earlier, the Y-axis represents the direction of the cleaning base station 100 from the back to the front. Please refer to Figure 9, which illustrates that along the direction indicated by the arrow on the Y-axis, the baffle abutment portion 82 is located in front of the rear arc plate 16. Please also refer to Figure 9, which illustrates that the baffle abutment portion 82 extends downwards at an angle.
[0142] In this embodiment, by setting the baffle abutment 82 from one end connected to the baffle connection 81 to the end away from the baffle connection 81, the baffle abutment 82 extends downward or upward at an angle, which can increase the contact area between the baffle abutment 82 and the cleaning equipment, so that the baffle 8 fits better on the cleaning equipment, so as to seal water vapor in the bottom space of the cleaning base station 100 as much as possible.
[0143] Regarding the shape of the baffle connecting part 81, in a specific example, please refer to Figure 9. The baffle connecting part 81 may be flat and fits against the lower end face of the rear arc plate 16.
[0144] This embodiment provides a cleaning system, including cleaning equipment and a cleaning base station 100 provided in any of the above embodiments.
[0145] The cleaning equipment can be a cleaning robot. The cleaning base station 100 is used in conjunction with the cleaning equipment. The cleaning base station is used to store the cleaning equipment when it is not in use, and to charge the cleaning equipment, wash the rags, and clean the internal garbage of the cleaning equipment.
[0146] Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. The cleaning base station 100 has a receiving compartment 15 for accommodating cleaning equipment. When the cleaning equipment returns to the cleaning base station 100, it will be stored in the receiving compartment 15. The cleaning base station 100 includes a cleaning component located below the receiving compartment 15. When the cleaning equipment is stored in the cleaning base station, the cleaning component can perform high-temperature cleaning on the cleaning cloth on the cleaning equipment.
[0147] Please refer to Figure 1. A suction port 19 is formed on the cleaning base station 100. The suction port 19 is connected to the receiving chamber 15. When the cleaning equipment returns to the cleaning base station 100, the suction port 19 of the cleaning base station 100 is connected to the garbage discharge port on the cleaning equipment.
[0148] Please refer to Figure 2. A dust bag placement space 110 is formed on the frame 1 of the cleaning base station 100. The dust bag placement space 110 is connected to the dust suction port 19 through the dust exhaust duct. Please refer to Figure 2, which shows the exhaust port 111 of the dust exhaust duct. The dust bag placement space 110 is connected to the exhaust port 111. At the same time, please refer to Figure 2, the dust bag placement space 110 is connected to the dust collection fan assembly 2.
[0149] In this embodiment, an exhaust duct 11 is formed on the frame 1 of the cleaning base station 100. Please refer to Figure 3, which shows the exhaust duct 11. The air outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2 is connected to the exhaust duct 11. That is, when the dust collection fan assembly 2 is working, the dust collection fan assembly 2 draws air from one side of the dust bag placement space 110 and exhausts air to the exhaust duct 11.
[0150] When the cleaning equipment returns to the cleaning base station 100, the suction port 19 of the cleaning base station 100 is connected to the garbage discharge port on the cleaning equipment. When the dust collection fan assembly 2 is started, the dust collection fan assembly 2 will draw air from one side of the dust bag placement space 110. Under the action of negative pressure, the garbage temporarily stored in the cleaning equipment is smoothly sucked into the dust bag in the dust bag placement space 110 through the suction port 19 and the dust discharge duct, thereby cleaning the garbage inside the cleaning equipment and ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning equipment in the next cleaning.
[0151] The cleaning base station 100 provided in this embodiment also includes a damper assembly 3 installed on the frame 1. The damper assembly 3 changes the connection between the exhaust duct 11 and the outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2. When the dust collection fan assembly 2 is working, the damper assembly 3 is opened to connect the exhaust duct 11 and the outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2. When the dust collection fan assembly 2 is not working, the damper assembly 3 is closed to disconnect the exhaust duct 11 from the outlet of the dust collection fan assembly 2. When the internal debris of the cleaning equipment is cleaned, the damper assembly 3 is closed to prevent the large amount of water vapor generated during the high-temperature mop washing process of the cleaning base station 100 from entering the upper space of the cleaning equipment through the exhaust duct 11, thereby ensuring the safety of the electrical components in the upper space.
[0152] In the example where a baffle 8 is provided on the side wall of the housing 15 of the cleaning base station 100, when the cleaning equipment is located inside the housing 15, the baffle 8 contacts the circumferential side of the cleaning equipment. The baffle 8 serves to prevent water vapor below the housing 15 from overflowing upwards, thus sealing the water vapor in the bottom space of the cleaning base station 100 as much as possible and avoiding various risks caused by the overflow of a large amount of water vapor.
[0153] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows: The cleaning base station provided in this embodiment is equipped with a damper assembly on the bracket that can change the connection state between the exhaust duct and the outlet of the dust collection fan assembly. That is, when the dust collection fan assembly is working, the damper assembly is opened to connect the exhaust duct and the outlet of the dust collection fan assembly. When the dust collection fan assembly is not working, the damper assembly is closed to prevent the exhaust duct and the outlet of the dust collection fan assembly from being connected. This can prevent a large amount of water vapor generated during the high-temperature mop washing process from entering the upper space of the cleaning equipment through the exhaust duct, thereby improving safety.
[0154] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
