For example, when the rib structure swings, the vibration or rotation of the mopping piece is combined; for another example, the convex rib structure vibrates or translates, and is cleaned by combining the rotation of the mopping piece; for another example, the rib structure rotates in combination with the vibration or rotation of the mop, and at this time, there is a rotation speed difference between the rotation of the rib structure and the rotation of the mop or the rotation directions of the rib structure and the mop are opposite.
In this embodiment, the relative movement between the mop 101 and the rib structure 21 is preferably: the dragging piece 101 translates relative to the rib structure 21, and the translation may be a movement in a single direction, in this case, the dragging piece 101 may be rectangular, circular, oval, or other shapes; alternatively, the scrubbing member 101 may rotate relative to the rib structure 21, wherein the scrubbing member 101 is circular.
Preferably, the cleaning mechanism 20 further includes a drain structure (not shown) connected to the connecting plate, the drain structure being a waste tank or drain. The drain structure is connected to all of the drain holes 213 so as to drain the dirty liquid squeezed out of the mop 101 to the drain structure, and when the drain structure is a sewage tank, the sewage tank stores the sewage, and when the sewage tank is about to be full, the sewage tank can be lifted up to dump the sewage clean and then store the sewage; when the drainage structure is a sewage discharge pipe, the sewage discharge pipe is directly communicated to a sewer to directly drain sewage.
It should be noted that the first side rib 2112 and the second side rib 2111 have a height difference of less than 3cm, when the second side rib 2111 is pressed and scraped by the wiping member 101, the non-pressed portion of the wiping member 101 and the top wall of the second side rib 2111 may just abut against each other, or may not contact each other, or may interfere with each other, and when interfering with each other, the second side rib 2111 may also have a little scraping effect. In addition, the first side ribs 2112 and/or the second side ribs 2111 may also be provided with protruding structures such as bumps or protruding strips to assist scraping.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a cleaning base station to which the cleaning mechanism 20 provided as described above is applied and assembled, and which includes a base 10 to which the cleaning mechanism 20 is assembled on the base 10. Specifically, the base 10 has a docking station 11 for the cleaning robot 100 to park therein, and the base 10 is formed with an access 12, so that when the cleaning robot 100 enters from the access 12 and parks in the docking station 11, the mopping member 101 of the cleaning robot 100 is located right in the area of the bead structure 21 of the cleaning mechanism 20. This is to flow liquid (for example, clean water) into the reservoir 211 of the cleaning mechanism 20, and since the mop 101 can be immersed into the clean water in the reservoir 211 to absorb the clean water, the dirt on the mop 101 is diluted by the clean water absorbed by the mop 101, and then the rib structure 21 and the mop 101 move relatively, at this time, the top of the second side rib 2111 is kept abutting against the mop 101, so that the sewage in the mop 101 is squeezed out to the side of the second side rib 2111 far from the first side rib 2112 and flows into the drainage chamber 212.
In the cleaning base station, the cleaning base station further includes a control module (not shown) and a position sensing device (not shown), the control module is connected to the position sensing device and the cleaning mechanism 20, the position sensing module is used for sensing the relative position of the cleaning robot 100 with respect to the base 10, and when the cleaning robot 100 stops at the stop station 11 of the base 10, the control module controls the cleaning mechanism 20 to clean the mopping member 101 of the cleaning robot 100.
In the process of cleaning the floor in the room, the cleaning robot 100 cannot clean the floor at one time, so that the floor needs to go to and fro the base station several times, clean the mop 101 in the base station, then leave the base station to clean the floor again, and clean the floor completely for several times. The cleaning robot 100 stops at the parking station 11 every time it enters the cleaning base station, the mopping piece 101 is located in the area of the rib structure 21 of the cleaning mechanism 20, the control module controls the pump of the water supply mechanism 22 to pump clean water to the reservoir 211, meanwhile, the control module is electrically connected with the cleaning robot 100, the control module sends a control command to the cleaning robot 100, the cleaning robot 100 controls the mopping piece 101 to move relative to the ground according to the control command, and the control module controls the driving mechanism of the cleaning mechanism 20 to work to drive the rib structure 21 to move relative to the ground, so that, relative movement of the mop 101 and the rib structure 21 is directly generated, and the top of the second side rib 2111 is held in abutment with the mop 101, thereby squeezing the liquid from the mop 101 out to the side of the second side rib 2111 remote from the first side rib 2112 and into the drain chamber 212 for drainage.
According to still another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a cleaning robot system. Specifically, the cleaning robot system includes the cleaning robot 100 and the aforementioned cleaning base station.
It is noted that when the cleaning robot 100 has a rotatable mop 101, the operation is as follows:
after the cleaning robot 100 performs a partial or complete cleaning operation on a floor or a carpet waiting to be cleaned, the cleaning robot 100 carries the mopping member 101 (i.e., mop cloth) with contaminated water into a cleaning base station to perform the cleaning operation. When the cleaning work starts, the mop rotates continuously, when the mop rotates, the mop is squeezed by the second convex ribs 2111 on the cleaning base station, sewage of each squeezed part on the mop flows into the drainage cavity 212 from one side, far away from the first convex rib 2112, of the second convex rib 2111, meanwhile, each squeezed part on the mop is squeezed to have more water suction spaces, each squeezed part on the mop enters the cleaning solution in the liquid storage tank 211 along with the rotation, the mop rotates continuously, each squeezed part on the mop and used for sucking the liquid (namely the cleaning solution) in the liquid storage tank 211 enters the next convex rib structure 21 to be squeezed and suck the liquid, and as the mop rotates continuously, and as the extending length of the liquid storage tank 211 is more than or equal to half of the effective width of the mop, all parts of the whole mop can repeatedly suck and drain water.
Adopted this kind of protruding muscle structure 21's basic station, the hole for water spraying for traditional basic station is to dragging piece 101 and carry out the local water spray, the first aspect, this kind of protruding muscle structure 21 is big with liquid area of contact, it is sufficient and fast to supply the liquid measure, can the absorption of greatly increased cleaning solution, thereby improve clean efficiency, the second aspect, along with dragging the rotation of wiping piece 101, can be with having absorbed dragging after the cleaning solution and wiping piece continuation drainage, and the imbibition is carried out repeatedly, this process of flowing back, can accomplish cleanly by very high efficiency. In the third aspect, particularly when a plurality of rib structures 21 are provided, the cleaning space of the mop 101 can be divided into a plurality of parts, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency by several times. In a fourth aspect, this way is time and labor saving compared to the traditional manual cleaning of the mop 101, and the repeated liquid suction and discharge can clean the mop 101 more cleanly and with less water than the manual cleaning way.
