Cleaning base station and cleaning robot system
Abstract
The cleaning base station includes a base, and an air supply device. The base is provided with a docking position for docking the cleaning robot and a working groove with a top opening. The mopping member of the cleaning robot is located above the working groove when the cleaning robot is docked at the docking position. The air supply device is arranged on the base. An output end of the air supply device is connected to at least one air outlet arranged in the working groove. The airflow is sent into the working groove from at least one direction and is conveyed to the top opening of the working groove to blow to the mopping member.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A cleaning base station, comprising:
a base provided with a docking position for docking a cleaning robot and a working groove with a top opening, wherein a mopping member of the cleaning robot is located above the working groove when the cleaning robot is docked at the docking position; and an air supply device arranged on the base, wherein an output end of the air supply device is communicated with at least one air outlet arranged in the working groove, so that an airflow is sent into the working groove from at least one direction and is conveyed to a top opening of the working groove, in order to blow to the mopping member.
2 . The cleaning base station of claim 1 , wherein the air outlet is circumferentially arranged around the working groove.
3 . The cleaning base station of claim 2 , wherein the air outlet is an annular opening.
4 . The cleaning base station of claim 1 , wherein the air outlets are a plurality of through holes opened in a circumferential side wall of the working groove when the air outlets are more than one.
5 . The cleaning base station of claim 1 , wherein the at least one air outlet is arranged on a bottom of the working groove.
6 . The cleaning base station of claim 1 , further comprising a heating device arranged on the base, wherein the heating device is located in an airflow channel between the output end of the air supply device and the at least one air outlet.
7 . The cleaning base station of claim 6 , wherein the working groove is a sewage collection cavity, and a cleaning plate is arranged on the sewage collection cavity for placing the mopping member, and wherein a gap is provided between an circumferential edge of the cleaning plate and a cavity wall of the sewage collection cavity, so that the airflow enters the sewage collection cavity and blows toward the mopping member through the gap.
8 . The cleaning base station of claim 6 , wherein the working groove is a cleaning groove, and the mopping member is suspended on the cleaning groove when the cleaning robot is docked at the docking position,
wherein the cleaning base station further comprises: a spray mechanism arranged on a bottom of the cleaning groove and configured to spray liquid to the mopping member for cleaning; a driving device arranged on the base; and a scraping plate movably mounted on the base, one end of the scraping plate extends to an area where the cleaning groove is and squeezes the mopping member, and the other end of the scraping plate is connected to a power output structure of the driving device, so that the driving device drives the scraping plate to move relative to the mopping member to squeeze out liquid in the mopping member.
9 . The cleaning base station of claim 8 , further comprising a control module arranged on the base, wherein the control module is communicated with the air supply device, the heating device, the spray mechanism, the driving device and a control unit in the cleaning robot, in order to control the air supply device, the heating device, the spray mechanism, the driving device and the cleaning robot to perform work according to predetermined working programs.
10 . The cleaning base station of claim 1 , wherein the base is provided with a groove, and the working groove is the groove,
wherein the cleaning base station further comprises a partition arranged in the groove, which divides the groove into a cleaning groove and a sewage collection cavity, and wherein the at least one air outlet is arranged on the partition, to communicate the cleaning groove with the sewage collection cavity.
11 . The cleaning base station of claim 1 , wherein the working groove is the cleaning groove, wherein a uniform air space is formed below the cleaning groove and communicated with the cleaning groove.
12 . The cleaning base station of claim 11 , wherein the at least one air outlet provided in the cleaning groove is communicated with the uniform air space, so that airflow in the uniform air space evenly exits the air outlet into the cleaning groove.
13 . The cleaning base station of claim 11 , wherein the uniform air space is provided with a water collecting tank, and the cleaning groove is in communicated with the water collecting tank, so that the water collecting tank stores liquid from the cleaning groove.
14 . The cleaning base station of claim 11 , wherein a plurality of air outlet openings are provided on the circumferential position of a top of a side wall of the cleaning groove, and communicated with the uniform air space.
15 . The cleaning base station of claim 1 , wherein the working groove is a groove provided on the base, and the groove is formed by a detachable or non-detachable member.
16 . The cleaning base station of claim 1 , wherein the base is provided with a mounting space, wherein an air inlet assembly is arranged at an air inlet position where the mounting space is communicated with outside, and the air inlet assembly is configured to filter intake air and block bulky debris.
17 . A cleaning robot system, comprising:
a cleaning robot; and a cleaning base station comprising:
a base provided with a docking position for docking a cleaning robot and a working groove with a top opening, wherein a mopping member of the cleaning robot is located above the working groove when the cleaning robot is docked at the docking position; and
an air supply device arranged on the base, wherein an output end of the air supply device is communicated with at least one air outlet arranged in the working groove, so that an airflow is sent into the working groove from at least one direction and is conveyed to a top opening of the working groove, in order to blow to the mopping member.
18 . The cleaning robot system of claim 17 , wherein the air outlet is circumferentially arranged around the working groove.
19 . The cleaning robot system of claim 18 , wherein the air outlet is an annular opening.
20 . The cleaning robot system of claim 17 , wherein the air outlets are a plurality of through holes opened in a circumferential side wall of the working groove when the air outlets are more than one.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
