The surface of the shaped member 412 adjacent to the base plate 110 is generally convex, and the shaped member is received in the cavity 111. preferably, the size of the shaped member 412 is generally consistent with the size of the cavity, so as to block the mounting member 412 and the rotating shaft 415 from the outside, and further reduce the entrance or winding of substances (especially strips and filaments) in the external environment (including but not limited to the surface to be cleaned) into the mounting member 411 and the rotating shaft 415. Optionally, the edges of the shape 412 are aligned with the edges 1111 of the cavity and only a slight gap is formed between the edges of the shape 412 and the edges 1111 of the cavity 111 to make it difficult for foreign objects to enter while there is no interference between the two edges, thereby preventing a stripe (e.g., an electric wire) or a filament (e.g., hair) from being entangled with the first cleaning subassembly 410. It can be seen that the convex surface of the shaped member 412 cooperates with the inner wall of the cavity 111 to effectively prevent the strip or filament from wrapping around the first cleaning subassembly 410.
Optionally, the inner wall of the cavity 111 may be further provided with a first protruding ring 112 and a third protruding ring 113, and the convex surface of the shape-defining member 412 is provided with a second protruding ring 4124, and when the first cleaning subassembly 410 is assembled on the chassis 110, the second protruding ring 4124 on the shape-defining member 412 is located between the first protruding ring 112 and the third protruding ring 113, so that the first protruding ring 112, the second protruding ring 4124 and the third protruding ring 113 cooperate with each other to further block objects in the external environment from entering or winding around the mounting member 411 and the rotating shaft 415. The mounting member 411 is sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 415 through the through hole 4111, and the mounting member 411 is mounted on the rotating shaft by using a locking member 414. The first cleaning subassembly 410 is removably mounted to the housing 10 by the locking members 414, which are removed to separate the first cleaning subassembly 410 from the housing when the first cleaning subassembly 410 requires cleaning. The locking member 414 may be any locking structure known in the art, such as a screw or snap-in locking structure. The first convex ring on the inner wall of the concave cavity surrounds the outer side of the mounting piece. Further preventing objects in the external environment from entering or winding the mounting member 411 and the rotation shaft 415.
As can be seen, in this embodiment (the first embodiment), since the first cleaning subassembly of the cleaning apparatus includes a mounting part, a shape-fixing part and a plurality of sweeping members, each sweeping member extends outwards from the mounting part, and the shape-fixing part connects the plurality of sweeping members, the shape-fixing part can provide a restraining force, such as a supporting force, a pulling force or a restoring force, between each sweeping member to prevent the sweeping members from being deformed, scattered or the plurality of sweeping members from getting close to each other under the action of an external force, thereby preventing the cleaning capability of the cleaning apparatus from being reduced, and in addition, the service life of the first cleaning subassembly can be prolonged. Also, since the chassis of the housing is provided with a cavity, and the edge of the shape-defining member 412 is aligned with the edge 1111 of the cavity, it is possible to make it difficult for foreign substances to enter while there is no interference between both edges, thereby preventing a strip of material (e.g., an electric wire) or a filament (e.g., hair) from being wound around the first cleaning subassembly 410.
