In the related art, the cleaning cloth configured by the cleaning robot is located in the orthographic projection range of the machine body in the region to be cleaned, and a certain distance exists between the outer edge of the cleaning cloth and the working side edge of the machine body to form a gap region, so that when the cleaning robot drags along the planned track, the cleaning cloth cannot drag the gap region, and the phenomenon of missed dragging is caused. In a wider area, the cleaning robot needs to perform supplementary mopping along the missed mopping area, so that the walking distance and the operation time in the mopping process are increased, and the cleaning efficiency is reduced; in the area with the side wall, when the cleaning robot drags along the side, due to the limitation of the wall body and the corner, the cleaning robot can not carry out compensation dragging, so that the phenomenon of missing dragging is more prominent and can not be overcome.
In the embodiments of the present application, the wall, the side wall, and the corner are similar to the wall, and may be a solid wall, a side wall, and a corner, or may be a cabinet, a plate, or the like, which may form a barrier, a block, or may form a corner, or the like.
As shown in fig. 1 to 12, an embodiment of the present application provides a self-moving robot 101 including a body 10 and a cleaning unit disposed on the body 10. The self-moving robot 101 can be configured into a floor mopping robot, a mopping and sweeping integrated robot, a window cleaning robot and other forms according to the functional requirements of different application scenes, so as to complete different cleaning functions. When cleaning is required, a corresponding wiper 102 may be mounted on the self-moving robot 101.
Here, the fuselage 10 has a front side edge 11, a rear side edge 12 and two lateral edges 13 connecting the front side edge 11 and the rear side edge 12, the front side edge 11 and the rear side edge 12 being arranged opposite in the forward direction of the fuselage 10, the lateral edges 13 being extendable in the forward direction of the fuselage 10. It is to be understood that, when the mopping is performed along the wall 201, one side edge 13 close to the wall 201 is a working side edge 13a, and the other side edge 13 disposed opposite to the working side edge 13a is an opposite side edge 13b; any one of the side edges 13 may be a working side edge 13a when mopping along an area other than a wall.
Here, the cleaning unit comprises at least one first connection 21, the first connection 21 being configured to connect with the mop 102 such that the mop 102 can be mounted on the self-moving robot 101. As shown in fig. 1 to 14, an orthographic projection of the working side edge 13a of the body 10 on the plane of the outer contour of the first connecting portion 21 is a working side projection 13a ', and an orthographic projection of the opposite side edge 13b of the body 10 on the plane of the outer contour of the first connecting portion 21 is an opposite side projection, and then at least one of the first connecting portions 21 is configured to make the wiping contour of the wiping member 102 connected thereto and the working side projection 13a' be adjacent.
The working side projection 13a' may be a line segment or a closed plane figure according to the relative relationship between the working side edge 13a and the plane of the outer contour of the first connecting portion 21. As shown in fig. 1 to 12, for example, the working side edge 13a is a plane perpendicular to the plane of the outer contour of the first connecting portion 21, and the projection 13a' on the working side is a line segment. As shown in fig. 13 to 14, for another example, the working side edge 13a is a plane not perpendicular to the plane of the outer contour of the first connecting portion 21, and the projection 13a' on the working side is a closed plane figure. Similarly, according to the relative relationship between the opposite side edge 13b and the plane where the outer contour of the first connecting portion 21 is located, the opposite side projection may be a line segment, or may be a closed plane figure, for which reference is made to the corresponding description of the working side edge 13a and the working side projection 13a', and details are not repeated here. Illustratively, the plane of the outer contour of the first connection portion 21 may be parallel to the plane of the mop contour of the mop 102. For example, the plane of the outer contour of the first connecting portion 21 may be parallel to the plane of the area to be cleaned.
The mopping contour of the mopping object 102 is an outer contour of a maximum mopping area that the mopping object 102 can reach with respect to the body 10 of the self-moving robot 101. In some examples, the mop 102 remains stationary on the self-moving robot 101, and there is no relative motion between the mop 102 and the body 10 of the self-moving robot 101, so the outline of the mop 102 is the outer contour of the mop 102. In some examples, relative movement may occur between the swab 102 and the body 10, such that during a cycle of movement, the outer profile of the area through which the swab 102 moves relative to the body 10 is the profile of the movement of the swab 102, i.e., the profile of the swab 102; for example, when the mop 102 is rotatable relative to the body 10, the outer contour of the area through which the mop 102 rotates once relative to the body 10 is the profile of the rotation of the mop 102 and the profile of the mop 102.
The abutting may be a case where the wiping contour of the wiper 102 is close to the working side projection 13a ', or a case where the wiping contour of the wiper 102 overlaps the working side projection 13 a'. Each of which is briefly described below.
As shown in fig. 9-12, in some examples, at least one first connection 21 may be configured to bring the mop profile of the mop 102 to which it is connected closer to the working side projection 13a'; in other words, the wiping contour of the wiper 102 and the working side projection 13a' do not overlap, but there is a small distance between them. Although the gap region formed by the interval is located in the orthographic projection range of the body 10 in the region to be cleaned and has drag leakage, the gap region is smaller than the same product in the related art, so that the drag leakage area can be reduced. Therefore, on one hand, the area needing to be supplemented and dragged can be reduced, the walking distance and the operation time of the self-moving robot 101 can be reduced, and the cleaning efficiency is improved; on the other hand, in the area with the side wall, when the cleaning robot drags the area along the side, the missed dragging area can be smaller, and the overall dragging and smearing capacity is improved.
As shown in fig. 1-8, in other examples, at least one first connection 21 may be configured to overlap the working side projection 13a' and the wipe profile of the wipe 102 to which it is connected. As shown in fig. 1-4, in some examples, the outer edge of the mopping profile of the mopping member 102 may be tangent to the outer edge of the working side projection 13a'; as shown in fig. 5-8, in other examples, the mopping profile of the mopping element 102 may overlap the working side projection 13a ', and an outer edge of the end of the mopping profile of the mopping element 102 that is distal from the opposite side projection is located on the side of the working side projection 13a' that is distal from the opposite side projection. Thus, the absence of a gap region between the working side edge 13a and the wiping profile of the wiper 102 eliminates drag areas, thereby reducing or eliminating drag areas. On one hand, the self-moving robot 101 does not need to be supplemented and dragged when dragging and smearing the area to be cleaned, so that the walking distance and the operation time of the self-moving robot 101 can be reduced, and the cleaning efficiency is improved; on the other hand, in the area with the side wall, when the cleaning robot drags along the side, the missed dragging area does not exist, and the full-face dragging can be realized.
In some embodiments, the first connection portion 21 is also configured to drive the movement of the mop 102 connected thereto, and the profile of the movement of the mop 102 is the profile of the mop 102. Here, the at least one first connection 21 may be configured to bring the motion profile of the swab 102 driven in rotation by it into close proximity with the working side projection 13 a'. The motion of the mop 102 may be designed according to practical requirements, such as linear reciprocating motion, swinging motion, rotating motion, etc., which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.
In some examples, the movement of the wiper 102 is in the form of a rotational movement, and the first connection 21 is configured to drive the wiper 102 connected thereto to rotate, the rotational profile of the wiper 102 being the wiping profile of the wiper 102. Here, the at least one first connecting portion 21 is configured to bring the rotating profile of the wiper 102 driven to rotate by it into close proximity with the working side projection 13 a'.
As shown in fig. 1 to 4, in some embodiments, at least one first connection portion 21 may be configured such that the rotation profile of the wiper 102 driven to rotate by the first connection portion is tangent to the outer edge of the end of the working side projection 13a 'far from the opposite side projection, that is, the rotation profile of the wiper 102 and the outer edge of the end of the working side projection 13a' far from the opposite side projection just fit. Based on this configuration feature, the position of the first connection portion 21 can be configured to achieve the tangent objective. Therefore, when the machine body 10 moves in the area to be cleaned automatically, the rotating contour of the mopping piece 102 is kept flush with the working side edge 13a along the orthographic projection direction of the machine body 10 in the area to be cleaned, so that on one hand, the missed mopping area can be completely eliminated, and the full-surface mopping is realized; on the other hand, the contact between the mop 102 and the side wall can be reduced, the obstruction to the autonomous movement of the body 10 and the adverse effect on the mopping action of the mop 102 can be reduced, and the moving capability and the mopping efficiency can be ensured.
In practice, it is difficult to make an absolute tangency between the profile of rotation of the mop 102 and the outer edge of the end of the projection 13a' of the working side that is remote from the projection on the opposite side, since both manufacturing and assembly errors cannot be completely eliminated. In embodiments of the present application, when the distance in the first direction between the outer edge of the working side projection 13a 'away from the opposite side projection and the outer edge of the rotating contour of the mop 102 away from the opposite side projection is smaller than 5mm, for example, the distance may be 0.25mm, 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, or 4.95mm, etc., the working side projection 13a' is still considered to be tangential to the rotating contour of the mop 102. Here, the first direction may be a direction from the working side edge 13a toward the opposite side edge 13b, or may be a direction from the opposite side edge 13b toward the working side edge 13a.
In other embodiments, as shown in fig. 5-12, at least one first connection 21 may be configured such that the profile of rotation of the wiper 102 driven in rotation by it is substantially tangential to the outer edge of the end of the working side projection 13a' remote from the opposite side projection. Here, there is a spacing in the first direction between an outer edge of an end of the working-side projection 13a' substantially tangent to a rotation profile, which is far from the opposite-side projection, and an outer edge of an end of the rotation profile, which is far from the opposite-side projection, and the spacing is not less than 5mm. As shown in fig. 5 to 8, when the first direction is from the opposite side edge 13b to the working side edge 13a, the rotating contour of the mop 102 exceeds the working side edge 13a, and the rotating contour also exceeds the orthographic projection range of the body 10 in the area to be cleaned; as shown in fig. 9 to 12, when the first direction is from the working side edge 13a to the opposite side edge 13b, the rotating contour of the mop 102 is located within the orthographic projection range of the body 10 in the area to be cleaned. Based on this configuration feature, the position of the first connection portion 21 can be configured to achieve a substantially tangential purpose.
As shown in FIGS. 1-12, in some examples, the edge between the outer edge of the working side projection 13a' away from the opposite side projection that is substantially tangent to a rotation profile and the outer edge of the rotation profile away from the opposite side projectionDistance l in first direction 1 It may be 5 to 20mm, for example 5mm, 8mm, 10mm, 15mm, 16mm, 17mm, 18mm, 19mm or 20mm, etc. In this range, when the first direction is a direction from the opposite side edge 13b toward the working side edge 13a, although the drain-drag area still exists, the drain-drag area is smaller than that of the like in the related art, so that the drain-drag area can be reduced. When the first direction is a direction from the working side edge 13a to the opposite side edge 13b, no gap area exists between the working side edge 13a and the rotating contour of the wiping piece 102, so that the missed wiping area can be eliminated, and the part of the wiping piece 102, which exceeds the working side edge 13a, has a small size, and has small influence on the autonomous movement capability and the wiping effect of the machine body 10; when the self-moving robot 101 is used for mopping along a wall, the contact force between the wall 201 and the mopping piece 102 is light and the contact force is small, so that the movement obstruction of the body 10, the interference of the mopping piece 102 and the damage to the first connecting part 21 can be reduced.
Exemplarily, the distance l in the first direction between the outer edge of the end of the working side projection 13a' substantially tangent to the rotation profile, which is far from the opposite side projection, and the outer edge of the end of the rotation profile, which is far from the opposite side projection 1 5 to 15mm, for example, 5mm, 5.5mm, 6mm, 6.5mm, 7mm, 7.6mm, 8.1mm, 9mm, 9.5mm, 10mm, 10.4mm, 11mm, 11.5mm, 12mm, 12.5mm, 13mm, 13.6mm, 14.1mm, 14.5mm, 15mm, or the like. Within this range, the drain-drag area and the drain-drag area can be further reduced when the first direction is a direction directed from the working side edge 13a to the opposite side edge 13 b. When the first direction is a direction from the opposite side edge 13b to the working side edge 13a, the size of the portion of the mop 102 beyond the working side edge 13a is smaller, and the working side edge 13a and the rotation profile of the mop 102 are closer to each other, so that the influence on the autonomous moving capability and the mopping effect of the body 10 can be further reduced; when the self-moving robot 101 is used for mopping along a wall, the contact force between the wall 201 and the mopping piece 102 can be further reduced, and the motion capability of the machine body 10, the mopping effect of the mopping piece 102 and the structural safety of the first connecting part 21 are ensured.
An orthogonal projection of the outer edge of the first connecting portion 21 on a plane where the outer contour of the first connecting portion 21 is located is a connecting portion projection. Here, the connection portion projection may be a closed plane figure. In some examples, the first connection portion 21 may be configured such that the connection portion projection is tangent to an outer edge of an end of the working side projection 13a 'away from the opposite side projection, that is, the outer edge of the connection portion projection and an outer edge of an end of the working side projection 13a' away from the opposite side projection just fit together.
In practical application, since manufacturing errors and assembly errors cannot be completely eliminated, the outer edges of the ends of the connecting portion projection and the working side projection 13a' far away from the opposite side projection are difficult to be absolutely tangent. In the embodiment of the present application, when the distance between the outer edge of the working side projection 13a 'far from the opposite side projection and the outer edge of the connecting portion on the end far from the opposite side projection along the first direction is less than 5mm, for example, the distance may be 0.25mm, 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, or 4.95mm, and the like, the working side projection 13a' and the connecting portion projection are still considered to be tangent.
In other examples, the first connection portion 21 may be configured such that the connection portion projection is substantially tangent to an outer edge of an end of the working side projection 13a' away from the opposite side projection. Here, a distance exists in the first direction between an outer edge of one end of the work side projection 13a' substantially tangential to the joint projection, which is far from the opposite side projection, and an outer edge of one end of the joint projection, which is far from the opposite side projection, and the distance is not less than 5mm. When the first direction is from the working side edge 13a to the opposite side edge 13b, the projection of the connecting part is located in the orthographic projection range of the machine body 10 in the area to be cleaned; conversely, when the first direction is a direction from the opposite side edge 13b to the working side edge 13a, the projection of the connecting portion exceeds the working side edge 13a, and the projection of the connecting portion also exceeds the orthographic projection range of the main body 10 on the area to be cleaned.
Illustratively, the distance l in the first direction between the outer edge of the end of the work side projection 13a' that is substantially tangent to the projection of the connecting portion and the outer edge of the end of the projection of the connecting portion that is distant from the projection of the opposite side 2 5 to 20mm, for example, 5mm, 8mm, 10mm, 15mm, 16mm, 17mm, 18mm, 19mm or 20mm. In an exemplary manner, the first and second electrodes are,a distance l in the first direction between an outer edge of one end of the work side projection 13a' substantially tangent to the projection of the connecting portion, the outer edge being away from the projection of the opposite side, and an outer edge of one end of the connecting portion, the projection of which is away from the projection of the opposite side 2 5 to 15mm, for example, 5mm, 5.5mm, 6mm, 6.5mm, 7mm, 7.6mm, 8.1mm, 9mm, 9.5mm, 10mm, 10.4mm, 11mm, 11.5mm, 12mm, 12.5mm, 13mm, 13.6mm, 14.1mm, 14.5mm, 15mm, or the like.
In some examples, the outer diameter of the rotating profile of the swab 102 is no less than the outer diameter of the first connection 21. Thus, the larger mopping contour of the mopping piece 102 can be ensured, the missing area is reduced, and the overall mopping capacity is improved. Illustratively, the difference between the outer diameter of the profile of rotation of the swab 102 and the outer diameter of the first connection 21 is not greater than 10mm; that is, the one-sided difference l between the rotational profile of the wiper 102 and the outer profile of the first connecting portion 21 3 Not greater than 5mm, such as 0mm, 0.5mm, 1mm, 1.6mm, 2.1mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, or 5mm, and the like. Within this range, the mop 102 has a larger mop contour, and the first connecting portion 21 can preferably support the mop 102, so as to ensure that the mop 102 has sufficient mopping force and the mopping cleanliness is better. Illustratively, when the outer diameter of the rotating profile of the mop 102 and the outer diameter of the first connecting portion 21 are equal,/ 1 And l 2 May be equal.
The structure of the first connection portion 21 can be determined according to actual needs, for example, a disc, a cone, a cylinder or other shapes, and this is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. In some embodiments, the first connecting portion 21 has a disk-like configuration, which has a small thickness to improve the structural stability of the self-moving robot 101, and a large radial dimension to provide the mop 102 with a better cleaning area and cleaning effect. When the first connection portion 21 is also configured to drive the movement of the mop 102, the cleaning unit may comprise a drive element by which the first connection portion 21 is driven to move. The type of the driving element can be selected according to the type of movement and layout space, such as a rotary electric machine, a hydraulic motor, an electric push rod or an electric cylinder, etc. Here, the driving element and the first connecting portion 21 may be directly connected or may be connected through a transmission structure such as a speed reducer, a gear mechanism, or the like.
In some embodiments, the self-moving robot 101 comprises a plurality of first connections 21, wherein at least one first connection 21 is configured to drive at least one swab 102 in rotation and to bring the rotating profile of the swab or swabs 102 into close proximity with the working side projection 13 a'. Here, in some examples, at least one first connection 21 is configured to drive at least one swab 102 in rotation and bring the rotation profile of the swab or swabs 102 into close proximity with the working side projection 13a ', while neither the rotation profile of the swab 102, which is driven in rotation by the other first connections 21, is brought into close proximity with the working side projection 13a', nor the opposite side projection.
In other examples, the at least one first connection 21 is configured to drive the at least one swab 102 in rotation and bring the rotating profile of the swab 102 into close proximity with the working side projection 13a'; and of the remaining first connections 21, at least one first connection 21 is configured to drive rotation of at least one further swab 102 and to overlap the profile of rotation of the swab(s) 102 with the contralateral projection of the body 10. Therefore, any one of the two sides can be used as a working side as required, the effect of reducing the dragging missing area is achieved, the difficulty of trajectory planning can be reduced, and the adaptability of the self-moving robot 101 to different terrains is improved.
Illustratively, the distance between two adjacent first connections 21 is configured such that the proximal distance l between the rotational profiles of the swabs 102 driven by the two first connections 21, respectively 4 Not greater than 10mm, for example 0.5mm, 0.75mm, 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.8mm, 5mm, 5.4mm, 6mm, 6.5mm, 7mm, 7.5mm, 8mm, 8.6mm, 9mm, 9.5mm, 10mm or the like. Here, the two wipes 102 driven by the adjacent two first connecting portions 21 are set as a first wipe 102a and a second wipe 102b, respectively; the proximal distance l between the profiles of rotation of the two wipes 102 4 Meaning that the first swab 102a has a rotating profile proximate an outer edge of one end of the second swab 102b and the second swab 102b has a rotating profile proximate the first swab102a, the distance between the outer edges of one end. The relative position between two adjacent first connection portions 21 can be set according to the distance range and the actual use of the wiper 102. Therefore, on one hand, the gap area between two adjacent mopping pieces 102 is smaller, the drag leakage area and the drag leakage area between two adjacent mopping pieces 102 are reduced, and the cleaning efficiency and the overall mopping capacity are improved; on the other hand, interference and interference between two adjacent mops 102 can be prevented, and the mopping and cleaning effects of the mops 102 and the structural safety of the first connecting portion 21 can be ensured.
Further illustratively, the proximal distance l between the outer edges of two adjacent first connecting portions 21 5 It can be configured directly to be no greater than 10mm, e.g., 0.5mm, 0.75mm, 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.8mm, 5mm, 5.4mm, 6mm, 6.5mm, 7mm, 7.5mm, 8mm, 8.6mm, 9mm, 9.5mm, or 10mm, etc. Here, the proximal distance between the outer edges of two adjacent first connecting portions 21 is described with reference to the definition of the proximal distance between the rotating profiles of the two swabs 102, and will not be described herein again. The relative position between two adjacent first connecting parts 21 is directly configured according to the distance range, so that on one hand, the gap area between two adjacent mopping pieces 102 is small, the mopping missing area and the mopping missing area between two adjacent mopping pieces 102 are reduced, and the cleaning efficiency and the full-area mopping capacity are improved; on the other hand, interference and interference between two adjacent mops 102 can be prevented, and the mopping and cleaning effects of the mops 102 and the structural safety of the first connecting portion 21 can be ensured. Illustratively, when the outer diameter of the rotating profile of the mop 102 and the outer diameter of the first connecting portion 21 are equal, l 4 And l 5 May be equal.
In some embodiments, the junction area between the rear-side edge 12 and the working-side edge 13a of the fuselage 10 forms a transition radius, as does the junction area between the rear-side edge 12 and the opposite-side edge 13 b. The fillet can make the bight of fuselage 10 rear end comparatively slick and sly, can guarantee turning to and the bight ability of passing through of fuselage 10 on the one hand, and on the other hand can prevent that fuselage 10 and surrounding environment from taking place sharp collision, guarantees structural safety.
In some examples, the outer edge of the working side projection 13a' of the fuselage 10 away from the end of the contralateral projection is a straight line. In this way, the end of the working-side edge 13a of the fuselage 10 remote from the opposite-side edge 13b has a straight configuration. When the self-moving robot 101 is cleaned along a wall, the body 10 can be attached to the wall surface, so that the self-moving robot 101 can walk along the wall to cover all areas beside the wall, the missed dragging or missed sweeping areas are reduced or eliminated, and a better cleaning effect is achieved.
Here, an orthographic projection of the front edge 11 of the body 10 on the plane of the outer contour of the first connecting portion 21 is a front side projection, and an orthographic projection of the rear edge 12 of the body 10 on the plane of the outer contour of the first connecting portion 21 is a rear side projection 12'. The rear projection 12' may be a line segment or a closed plane figure, depending on the relative relationship between the rear edge 12 and the plane of the outer contour of the first connecting portion 21.
As shown in fig. 1 and 15-19, similar to the first connection portions 21 being configured to approximate the wipe profile of the wipe 102 to which they are connected and the working side projection 13a ', in some embodiments, at least one of the first connection portions 21 may also be configured to approximate the wipe profile of the wipe 102 to which it is connected and the rear side projection 12'. For the close definition, please refer to the above description, which is not repeated herein. In this arrangement, the gap area between the outer edge of the mopping profile of the mop 102 and the trailing edge 12 of the body 10, which is directly below the body 10, may be reduced or eliminated. After the self-moving robot 101 turns, the rear side edge 12 of the body 10 and the working side edge 13a before turning substantially coincide, and the mop 102 can cover the missed mop area existing between the working side edge 13a and the outer edge of the mop contour of the mop 102 before turning to some extent, thereby reducing the missed mop area, and improving the mop efficiency and the full-face mop capacity. Especially in the corner area which is not easy to clean, the covering and mopping can reduce the blind corner, and the mopping is more thorough.
As shown in fig. 1 and 15, in some examples, similar to the case where the first connection portion 21 is configured to make the rotation profile of the wiper 102 driven to rotate by the first connection portion tangent to the outer edge of the end of the working side projection 13a 'far from the opposite side projection, at least one of the first connection portions 21 may also be configured to make the rotation profile of the wiper 102 driven to rotate by the first connection portion tangent to the outer edge of the end of the rear side projection 12' far from the front side projection. For the related descriptions and the corresponding ranges of tangency, please refer to the related parts, which are not described herein again. In this way, the gap area between the outer edge of the swivel profile of the wipe 102 and the trailing edge 12 of the body 10, which is directly below the body 10, is eliminated. After the self-moving robot 101 turns, the rear side edge 12 of the body 10 and the working side edge 13a before turning are basically overlapped, and the dragging piece 102 can completely cover the dragging missing area existing between the working side edge 13a and the outer edge of the rotating profile of the dragging piece 102 before turning, so that the dragging area is reduced, and the dragging efficiency and the full-face dragging capability are improved. Especially in the corner area which is not easy to clean, the covering and mopping can basically eliminate the blind corner, so that the mopping is more thorough.
In practice, it is difficult to make the profile of rotation of the mop 102 perfectly tangential to the outer edge of the rear projection 12' at the end remote from the front projection, since manufacturing and assembly tolerances cannot be completely eliminated. In embodiments of the present application, the rear projection 12 'is considered to be tangential to the rotational contour of the mop 102 when the distance in the second direction between the outer edge of the end of the rear projection 12' remote from the front projection and the outer edge of the end of the rotational contour of the mop 102 remote from the front projection is less than 5mm, e.g. the distance may be 0.25mm, 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.5mm or 4.95 mm. Here, the second direction may be a direction projected from the rear side 12 'to the front side, that is, a forward direction of the body 10, or may be a direction projected from the front side to the rear side 12', that is, a direction opposite to the forward direction of the body 10.
As shown in fig. 16 to 19, in some examples, similar to the case where the first connection portions 21 are configured to make the rotation profile of the wiper 102 driven to rotate by the first connection portions substantially tangent to the outer edge of the end of the working-side projection 13a 'far from the opposite side projection, at least one of the first connection portions 21 may be configured to make the rotation profile of the wiper 102 driven to rotate by the first connection portions substantially tangent to the outer edge of the end of the rear-side projection 12' far from the front-side projection. Here, there is a spacing in the second direction between an outer edge of the rear projection 12' that is substantially tangential to a rotation contour, which is remote from the front projection, and an outer edge of the rotation contour, which is remote from the front projection, and the spacing is not less than 5mm. As shown in fig. 16 to 17, when the second direction is from the front edge 11 to the rear edge 12, the rotating profile of the mop 102 exceeds the rear edge 12, and the rotating profile exceeds the orthographic projection range of the body 10 in the area to be cleaned; as shown in fig. 18 to 19, whereas, when the second direction is a direction from the rear edge 12 to the front edge 11, the rotating profile of the mop 102 is located within the orthographic projection range of the body 10 in the area to be cleaned. Based on this configuration feature, the position of the first connection portion 21 can be configured to achieve a substantially tangential purpose.
In some examples, the distance l in the second direction between an outer edge of the rear projection 12' substantially tangent to a rotation profile, which is remote from the front projection, and an outer edge of the rotation profile, which is remote from the front projection 6 May be 5 to 20mm, for example 5mm, 8mm, 10mm, 15mm, 16mm, 17mm, 18mm, 19mm or 20mm. Within this range, when the second direction is a direction from the rear edge 12 to the front edge 11, the rotation profile of the mop 102 is located within the orthographic projection range of the body 10 in the region to be cleaned, so that the gap region between the rear edge 12 and the rotation profile of the mop 102 below the body 10 can be reduced, the drag leakage region and the drag leakage area can be reduced, and the coverage range of the drag filling operation can be increased. When the second direction is a direction from the front edge 11 to the rear edge 12, there is no gap area between the rear edge 12 and the rotating contour of the mop 102, which can eliminate the dragging area and increase the coverage of the dragging operation, and the size of the part of the mop 102 beyond the rear edge 12 is small, which has less influence on the autonomous moving ability and the dragging effect of the body 10, so that the contact between the mop 102 and the external obstacle that may exist is light and the contact force is small, which can reduce the movement obstruction of the body 10, the interference of the mop 102 and the damage to the first connecting part 21.
In some examples, the first connecting portion 21 may be configured such that the projection of the connecting portion is tangent to an outer edge of the rear projection 12 'away from the front projection, i.e. the outer edge of the projection of the connecting portion just fits to an outer edge of the rear projection 12' away from the front projection. In practical applications, since manufacturing errors and assembly errors cannot be completely eliminated, it is difficult to make an absolute tangency between the outer edges of the connecting portion projection and the end of the rear projection 12' far from the front projection. In the embodiment of the present application, when the distance between the outer edge of the end far from the front projection on the rear projection 12 'and the outer edge of the end far from the opposite projection on the connection projection in the second direction is less than 5mm, for example, the distance may be 0.25mm, 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, or 4.95mm, and the like, the rear projection 12' and the connection projection are still considered to be tangent.
In other examples, the first connection portion 21 may be configured such that the connection portion projection and an outer edge of an end of the rear projection 12' remote from the front projection are substantially tangent. Here, a distance exists in the second direction between an outer edge of one end of the rear side projection 12' substantially tangent to the joint projection, which is far from the front side projection, and an outer edge of one end of the joint projection, which is far from the opposite side projection, and the distance is not less than 5mm. When the second direction is a direction from the front side edge 11 to the rear side edge 12, the projection of the connecting part is positioned in the orthographic projection range of the machine body 10 in the area to be cleaned; conversely, when the second direction is from the front edge 11 to the rear edge 12, the projection of the connecting portion exceeds the working edge 13a, and the projection of the connecting portion also exceeds the orthographic projection range of the main body 10 in the area to be cleaned.
Exemplarily, a distance l in the first direction between an outer edge of an end of the rear projection 12' substantially tangential to the projection of the joint portion, which is far from the front projection, and an outer edge of an end of the joint portion, which is far from the front projection 7 5 to 20mm, for example, 5mm, 8mm, 10mm, 15mm, 16mm, 17mm, 18mm, 19mm or 20mm. Illustratively, the distance between an outer edge of one end of the rear projection 12' substantially tangent to the projection of the connecting portion, which is far from the front projection, and an outer edge of one end of the connecting portion, which is far from the front projection, is along a first directionDistance of direction l 7 5 to 15mm, for example, 5mm, 5.5mm, 6mm, 6.5mm, 7mm, 7.6mm, 8.1mm, 9mm, 9.5mm, 10mm, 10.4mm, 11mm, 11.5mm, 12mm, 12.5mm, 13mm, 13.6mm, 14.1mm, 14.5mm, or 15mm. Illustratively, when the outer diameter of the rotating profile of the mop 102 and the outer diameter of the first connecting portion 21 are equal, l 6 And l 7 May be equal.
In some examples, the proximal distance between the outer edge of the first connection portion 21 and the working side edge 13a may be configured to be no greater than 20mm, such as 0mm, 0.5mm, 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, 5mm, 5.3mm, 5.8mm, 6.5mm, 7mm, 7.5mm, 8mm, 8.5mm, 9mm, 9.4mm, 10mm, 10.5mm, 11mm, 11.4mm, 11.9mm, 12mm, 12.5mm, 13mm, 13.5mm, 14mm, 14.5mm, 15mm, 15.5mm, 16mm, 16.5mm, 17mm, 17.6mm, 18.1mm, 18.6mm, 19mm, 19.5mm, or 20mm, and the like. Thus, the gap area between two adjacent mopping pieces 102 is small, the area of the missed mopping area and the missed mopping area between two adjacent mopping pieces 102 are reduced, and the cleaning efficiency and the full mopping capacity are improved.
Illustratively, the proximal distance between the outer edge of the first connection portion 21 and the working side edge 13a may be configured to be 5-10 mm, such as 5mm, 5.3mm, 5.5mm, 5.8mm, 6.2mm, 6.5mm, 6.8mm, 7mm, 7.5mm, 8mm, 8.5mm, 9mm, 9.4mm, 9.7mm, or 10mm, etc. Here, the proximal distance between the outer edge of the first connecting portion 21 and the working-side edge 13a refers to the distance between the one of the side outer edges of the first connecting portion 21 closest to the working-side edge 13a and the working-side edge 13a. Thus, not only the drag area and drag area between two adjacent drag pieces 102 can be reduced, but also interference and interference between two adjacent drag pieces 102 can be prevented, and the drag cleaning effect of the drag pieces 102 and the structural safety of the first connecting part 21 can be ensured.
In some examples, the first connection portion 21 may be configured such that an outer edge of the first connection portion 21 and the working side edge 13a are tangent. For the definition of tangency, please refer to the above description, which is not repeated herein. In practical applications, it is difficult to make an absolute tangency between the outer edge of the first connection portion 21 and the working-side edge 13a, since both manufacturing errors and assembly errors cannot be completely eliminated. In the embodiment of the present application, when the distance between the one end outer edge of the first connecting portion 21 and the working side edge 13a away from the opposite side edge 13b is less than 5mm, for example, the distance may be 0.25mm, 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, or 4.95mm, etc., which are still considered to be tangent to the outer edge of the first connecting portion 21 and the working side edge 13a.
In some examples, an outer edge of the rear projection 12' of the fuselage 10 distal from the front projection is a straight line. In this way, the end of the rear side edge 12 of the fuselage 10 remote from the front side edge 11 has a straight configuration. Illustratively, the connecting region between the rear side edge 12 and the working side edge 13a forms a transition radius.

Here, the orthographic projection of the traveling mechanism on the plane where the outer contour of the first connecting portion 21 is located can be covered by the orthographic projection of the body 10 on the plane, so that the traveling mechanism is prevented from protruding out of the body 10, and the traveling mechanism is prevented from limiting the mopping range of the self-moving robot 101.
The structural form of the running mechanism is determined according to actual needs, and the running mechanism can be of the types such as wheel sets, tracks, support legs and the like, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. In some examples, the travel mechanism may include a follower wheel assembly 31 and at least two drive wheel assemblies 32.
The follower wheel assembly 31 may be disposed in a front-side region of the fuselage 10 in its advancing direction, that is, a region of the fuselage 10 near the front-side edge 11, laid out in a front-wheel manner; the follower wheel assemblies 31 may also be disposed in the rear region of the body 10, i.e., the region of the body 10 proximate the rear edge 12, and arranged in a rear-wheel manner. Illustratively, the follower wheel assembly 31 may be a universal wheel. For example, when the body 10 is provided with two first coupling portions 21, the follower wheel assembly 31 may be disposed at a region between the two first coupling portions 21.
Illustratively, the driving wheel assembly 32 may be disposed at an area between the follower wheel assembly 31 and the first connection portion 21. Illustratively, the first connection portion 21 may be disposed on a side of the rotation axis of the driving wheel assembly 32 near the rear side edge 12 of the body 10. In this manner, the first coupling portion 21 is closer to the rear edge 12 than the drive wheel assembly 32, such that the first coupling portion 21 can be brought into close proximity with the rear edge 12, reducing or eliminating drag leakage areas at the rear side of the body 10.
Illustratively, the center-to-center distance between two drive wheel assemblies 32 may be 200-300 mm, such as 200mm, 205mm, 210mm, 216mm, 221mm, 228mm, 235mm, 240mm, 245mm, 250mm, 254mm, 260mm, 265mm, 270mm, 276mm, 281mm, 285mm, 290mm, 295mm, or 300mm, and the like.

The bottom of the body 10 is opened with a dust suction opening 14, and the roller brush assembly 22 is rotatably disposed at the dust suction opening 14. In this way, the rolling brush assembly 22 can sweep up the dust and the adhered matters in the area to be cleaned, and the swept-up garbage is sucked away by the dust suction opening 14. Here, the rolling brush assembly 22 may be disposed at the front side of the driving wheel assembly 32 along the advancing direction of the machine body 10, and compared with a disposing manner of disposing the rolling brush assembly 22 between two driving wheel assemblies 32 in the related art, the disposing manner of the embodiment of the present application may eliminate the size limitation of the two driving wheel assemblies 32 on the rolling brush assembly 22, increase the length of the rolling brush assembly 22, and thus improve the cleaning area and the floor sweeping efficiency.
As shown in fig. 20 to 23, in some embodiments, the cleaning unit further includes a second connection part 23 provided on the body 10, the second connection part 23 being configured to be connected with the side brush 103. Thus, the side brush 103 can be used for sweeping dust and adhered matters in the area to be cleaned, and sweeping the dust in the peripheral area to the action range of the dust suction opening 14, so that the dust is sucked away by the dust suction opening 14, and the sweeping function is realized.
In some examples, the second connecting portion 23 is configured to drive the side brush 103 connected thereto to rotate, so that the side brush 103 can rotationally sweep the area to be cleaned, thereby increasing the sweeping force and the sweeping efficiency. Here, the cleaning unit may include another driving member by which the second connection portion 23 is driven to rotate. The type of the drive element can be selected according to the type of movement and layout space, such as the type of rotary electric machine, hydraulic motor, etc. Here, the driving element and the first connecting portion 21 may be directly connected or may be connected by a transmission structure such as a speed reducer, a gear mechanism, or the like.

Accordingly, the aspect ratio of the body 10 is the ratio of the length to the width thereof. Here, the aspect ratio of the body 10 may be set to 0.9 to 1.2, for example, 0.9, 0.93, 0.95, 0.98, 1, 1.04, 1.08, 1.1, 1.15, 1.18, 1.2, or the like.
