The vibration direction may be along the length direction of the housing 20, or along the width direction of the housing 20, or other directions, and the vibration direction is not limited herein, and it is only necessary that the floor cleaning component 31 cleans the surface to be cleaned by vibration.

In the case where the floor-mopping part 31 cleans the surface to be cleaned by means of vibration, the driving motor 32 may be a vibration motor.

In some embodiments, the housing 20 is provided with a mounting cavity 203 and a mounting hole 204 communicating with the mounting cavity 203, the driving motor 32 (the transmission mechanism 33) is mounted in the mounting cavity 203, the mopping part 31 is rotatably mounted in the mounting hole 204, and the mopping part 31 and the mounting hole 204 or the transmission mechanism 33 and the mounting hole 204 are hermetically arranged (for example, a sealing ring is arranged between the mopping part 31 and the mounting hole 204 or between the transmission mechanism 33 and the mounting hole 204, or a small clearance fit is arranged between the mopping part 31 and the mounting hole 204 or between the transmission mechanism 33 and the mounting hole 204, etc., so long as the waterproof effect is achieved, and simultaneously, the rotation of the mopping part 31 and the transmission mechanism 33 is not affected), so as to prevent liquid, dust, etc. on the ground from entering the mounting cavity 203 from the mounting hole 204. The mounting cavity 203, the dust containing cavity 201 and the liquid containing cavity 202 are isolated from each other to prevent dust in the dust containing cavity 201 and liquid in the liquid containing cavity 202 from entering the mounting cavity 203.

As shown in fig. 10, the cleaning robot includes a body 10 and a cleaning module 100, and the specific structure of the cleaning module 100 refers to the above embodiments, and since the cleaning robot adopts all technical solutions of all the above embodiments, the cleaning robot at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, and details are not repeated herein. Wherein the cleaning module 100 is detachably mounted to the machine body 10. Specifically, the housing 20 of the cleaning module 100 is detachably connected to the machine body 10.

The driving motor 32 of the mopping assembly 30 can be electrically connected with the control module on the main machine 10, and a power supply and control module can also be arranged on the cleaning module 100. Thus, the cleaning module 100 is integrally and detachably mounted on the main body 10, so that the cleaning module 100 can be conveniently cleaned and maintained, for example, when the floor mopping component 31 needs to be cleaned, the cleaning module 100 can be integrally detached from the main body, and then the floor mopping component 31 on the cleaning module 100 can be cleaned or replaced, so that the parts on the main body 10 can be prevented from being affected. Of course, in other embodiments, the cleaning module 100 is fixedly mounted to the housing (i.e., the cleaning module 100 is not detachable from the housing).

The cleaning robot further includes a dust suction mechanism (e.g., a dust suction fan), a cleaning mechanism (e.g., a rolling brush, a side brush), and other conventional cleaning modules 100, and a traveling module such as a moving wheel, which are not described in detail herein. The dust collection mechanism, the sweeping mechanism and the walking module can be respectively provided with a machine body 10, wherein one part of the machine body 10 is arranged on the machine body 10, and the other part of the machine body is arranged on the shell 20; for example, the walking module and the sweeping mechanism can be mounted on the machine body 10, and the dust collecting mechanism and the floor mopping mechanism can be mounted on the housing 20; or the walking module is arranged on the machine body 10, and the dust collection mechanism, the floor mopping mechanism and the sweeping mechanism are arranged on the shell 20; or the walking module, the dust collection mechanism and the sweeping mechanism are arranged on the machine body 10, and the mopping mechanism is arranged on the shell 20; or the walking module and the sweeping mechanism are arranged on the machine body 10, and the dust collecting mechanism and the floor mopping mechanism are arranged on the shell 20, and the like.

The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, and all modifications and equivalents of the present invention, which are made by the contents of the present specification and the accompanying drawings, or directly/indirectly applied to other related technical fields, are included in the scope of the present invention.
