Example one

As shown in fig. 1 to 4, the present embodiment provides a base 100 provided on a washing base station, mainly for placing a mop 200 of a cleaning device, so as to facilitate washing of the mop 200 by the washing base station. The base 100 includes: a base body 10 and a shroud 21.

The base body 10 is provided with a holding groove 11, the holding groove 11 is used for holding a mop 200 of a cleaning device, and the base body 10 is provided with a clean water inlet 12 and a sewage outlet 13. The enclosing plate 21, at least a part of the side wall of the receiving groove 11 and at least a part of the bottom of the receiving groove 11 define a washing groove 20, and a plurality of protrusions 22 are provided in the washing groove 20, and the mop cloth 200 is in contact with the washing groove 20 and the plurality of protrusions 22.

The clean water inlet 12 is communicated with the washing tank 20, and the sewage outlet 13 is located outside the washing tank 20 and lower than the top of the enclosing plate 21, so that the sewage washed in the washing tank 20 can be conveniently discharged from the sewage outlet 13.

Referring to fig. 9, in the base 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, when the mop 200 rotates to wash, the fresh water inlet 12 guides fresh water into the washing trough 20, the mop 200 contacts with the washing trough 20, and the mop 200 does not contact with the protrusions 22, so that the mop 200 can be soaked and rubbed, which is beneficial for cleaning the mop 200. Meanwhile, the sewage outlet 13 is positioned outside the washing tank 20 and is lower than the top of the enclosing plate 21, so that the sewage squeezed by the friction between the convex part 22 and the mop 200 flows to the outside of the washing tank 20, and the mixing of the sewage and the clean water at the washing tank 20 is prevented, thereby not only reducing the using amount of the clean water, but also improving the cleaning effect on the mop 200.

It should be noted that the cleaning device may be a vacuum cleaner with a sweeping function, a sweeping robot, or the like. Taking the shape of the mop 200 of the cleaning device as an example, when the mop 200 of the cleaning device is washed, the cleaning device rotates the mop 200, the water pump of the washing base station delivers clean water to the clean water inlet 12, and the clean water flows to the washing tank 20, so that the mop 200 is in contact friction with the bulge 22 of the washing tank 20 and the clean water, and a washing function is realized.
