Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a wet mop rag module of a cleaner. Disclosed is a wet mop rag module for a cleaner configured to clean by wiping debris on a floor surface, including: a module housing; a water tank coupled to the module housing and configured to store water inside; at least one or more rotary cleaning units disposed at a lower side of the module housing and to which a mop rag is couplable; a heating generator configured to heat water provided from the water tank; and a water pump configured to supply water stored in the water tank to the heating generator, and the wet mop rag module for a cleaner has an effect of making an amount of water accommodated by the heating generator to be equal to an amount of water that the water pump supplies to the heating generator so that a certain amount of moisture at a certain temperature can be supplied to the mop rag.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A wet mop rag module for a cleaner configured to clean by wiping debris on a floor surface, comprising:
 a module housing;   a water tank coupled to the module housing and configured to store water inside;   at least one or more rotary cleaning units disposed at a lower side of the module housing and to which a mop rag is couplable;   a heating generator configured to heat water provided from the water tank; and   a water pump configured to supply water stored in the water tank to the heating generator,   wherein an amount of water accommodated by the heating generator is equal to an amount of water that the water pump supplies to the heating generator.   
     
     
         2 . The wet mop rag module of  claim 1 ,
 wherein the heating generator comprises:   a heating chamber in which a flow path through which water flows is formed;   a heater configured to supply heat to the heating chamber;   a water inlet port formed in the heating chamber and into which water being introduced from the water tank; and   a pair of moisture discharge ports formed in the heating chamber and through which heated moisture being discharged.   
     
     
         3 . The wet mop rag module of  claim 2 ,
 wherein the flow path communicates the water inlet port and the pair of moisture discharge ports to each other, and is formed symmetrically with respect to the water inlet port.   
     
     
         4 . The wet mop rag module of  claim 2 ,
 wherein in the heating chamber, a height of the water inlet port and a height of the moisture discharge port are formed to be equal.   
     
     
         5 . The wet mop rag module of  claim 1 ,
 wherein the heating generator comprises:   a heating chamber having a flow path in which moisture flows;   a heater in contact with the heating chamber and configured to supply heat to the heating chamber;   a lower cover disposed at a lower side of the heater and configured to cover the heater;   a sealer disposed at an upper side of the heating chamber and configured to seal the upper side of the heating chamber; and   an upper cover disposed at an upper side of the sealer and configured to cover the sealer.   
     
     
         6 . The wet mop rag module of  claim 5 ,
 wherein the heating generator further comprises an insulation member disposed between the heater and the lower cover.   
     
     
         7 . The wet mop rag module of  claim 1 ,
 wherein the heating generator further comprises a temperature detector configured to detect a temperature of the heating chamber.   
     
     
         8 . The wet mop rag module of  claim 1 ,
 wherein the heating generator further comprises a temperature detector configured to detect a temperature of the heating chamber.   
     
     
         9 . The wet mop rag module of  claim 8 ,
 wherein the water pump is operated for a preset water supply time, and   wherein an amount of water that the water pump supplies during the water supply time is equal to a product of the water supply time and an amount of moisture discharged to the mop rag per unit time.   
     
     
         10 . The wet mop rag module of  claim 8 ,
 wherein the water pump is operated for a preset water supply time, and   wherein an amount of water that the heating generator accommodates is equal to a product of the water supply time and an amount of moisture discharged to the mop rag per unit time.
