Fig. 1 shows a schematic view of the structure of a mop 100 according to some embodiments of the present application. FIG. 2 shows a schematic view of the assembly of mop 100 with a mounting base 200 according to some embodiments of the present application. Fig. 3 shows a schematic view of the mop assembly 1000 of some embodiments of the present application, formed by the mop 100 and the mounting base 200.

Referring to fig. 1, a mop 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a base strip 110 and a plurality of blades 120, wherein the base strip 110 can enclose a mounting space K along a predetermined enclosing direction R. All the blades 120 are spaced from the base band 110 in the enclosing direction and are located outside the installation space K. A wiping portion 121 is provided on one surface of each blade 120 on the same side in the circumferential direction R, wherein each blade 120 is configured to be capable of being turned around the first end D1 connected to the base tape 110 by an external force toward or away from the circumferential direction.

As shown in fig. 1, the enclosing direction R corresponds to the surrounding path of the base band 110. When the surrounding direction R is a circular direction, the surrounding path of the base band 110 is circular. When the enclosing direction R is an elliptical direction, the surrounding path of the baseband 110 is elliptical. When the surrounding direction R is a polygon, the surrounding path of the base band 110 is a polygon. The shape of the enclosing direction R may be a regular shape (e.g., a circle, an ellipse, a polygon) or an irregular shape, and the specific shape of the enclosing direction R is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

The base band 110 is a band-shaped structure, and can be disposed around along a predetermined surrounding direction R, and surround to form an installation space K. The base band 110 may be made of plastic (e.g., rubber, silicone), fabric, metal (e.g., steel, aluminum, stainless steel), etc. The base band 110 has a certain flexibility and can rotate along its surrounding direction R under external control to walk like a crawler.

The plurality of blades 120 are configured, and all the blades 120 are arranged on the outer side surface of the base band 110 at intervals along the enclosing direction R, the inner side surface of the base band 110 encloses to form an installation space K, and the blades 120 are located outside the installation space K. The thickness h2 direction of the blade is arranged along the enclosing direction R, and has a first end D1 connected to the base band 110 and a second end D2 departing from the base band 110, and the direction in which the first end D1 and the second end D2 are located is the width direction of the blade 120. The blade 120 can be turned around the first end D1 in the circumferential direction R (i.e., in the thickness direction thereof) by an external force.

The manner of turning the blade 120 around the first end D1 may be: the first end D1 is a weak end, for example, the thickness h2 of the blade becomes small at the first end D1, and at this time, the bending resistance of the first end D1 of the blade 120 is weak, so that the blade can be turned and deformed. The manner of turning the blade 120 around the first end D1 may also be: the first end D1 of the blade 120 has elasticity (e.g., the first end D1 is formed by a spring), and the blade 120 can be turned when the external force is applied under the elastic force and returns to the initial state when the external force is removed (the initial state refers to a state where the blade 120 is substantially perpendicular to the base tape 110).

The blades 120 have a first surface S1 and a second surface S2 opposite to each other in the circumferential direction R, the first surface S1 and the second surface S2 are opposite to each other in the thickness h2 direction of the blades, the first surface S1 of each blade 120 is located on the same side of each blade 120 in the circumferential direction R, and the second surface S2 of each blade 120 is located on the same side of each blade 120 in the circumferential direction R. One of the first surface S1 and the second surface S2 is provided with a wiping portion 121, and the embodiment of the present application will be described by taking the example in which the wiping portion 121 is provided on the second surface S2. The wiping part 121 is used for cleaning the surface 2000 to be cleaned, and the wiping part 121 may be bristles, lint, sponge, and the like, and is not limited in particular. The wiping portion 121 may be provided on the second surface S2 by bonding, screwing, or integral molding. The wiping portion 121 is not provided on the first surface S1, and when the first surface S1 and the second surface S2 are in contact with the surface 2000 to be cleaned, the frictional force of the first surface S1 acting on the surface 2000 to be cleaned is smaller than the frictional force of the second surface S2 acting on the surface 2000 to be cleaned.

In practice, the installation space K is used for the base belt 110 to be installed on the installation base 200 to form the mop assembly 1000. Referring to fig. 2, in an embodiment, the mounting base 200 and the base are assembled in the following manner: the mounting base 200 is sleeved into the mounting space K of the base band 110 along the assembling direction, and when the mounting base 200 is in place, the base band 110 is sleeved on the mounting base 200.

The base strip 110 is rotatable in the circumferential direction R to be walked by the mounting 200, and the mop assembly 1000 can walk on the surface 2000 to be cleaned while the base strip 110 is rotated to be walked. Regarding the implementation manner of the mounting base 200 driving the base belt 110 to move along the enclosing direction R, the implementation manner may be a walking manner with reference to a crawler, for example, implemented by a roller drive, and the specific driving structure of the mounting base 200 is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Referring to fig. 3, when the mop assembly 1000 performs a cleaning operation, the base belt 110 is rotated in a forward direction (see direction R1) or a reverse direction (see direction R2) in the enclosing direction R by the driving of the mounting seat 200.

When the base belt 110 rotates in the forward direction (see direction r 1) (see fig. 7 to 8 in conjunction), the first end D1 of the blade 120 located below the base belt 110 moves along with the base belt 110, and the second end D2 of the blade 120 has friction with the surface to be cleaned 2000 and lags behind the movement of the first end D1 thereof, so that the second end D2 is reversed relative to the first end D1 away from the rotation direction of the base belt 110, such that the second surface S2 of the blade 120 faces the surface to be cleaned 2000, the first surface S1 faces the base belt 110, and the wiping part 121 on the second surface S2 of the blade 120 contacts the surface to be cleaned 2000, so that the frictional resistance of the mop 100 to the surface to be cleaned 2000 is large, and the cleaning operation can be performed on the surface to be cleaned 2000.

When the base belt 110 rotates in the opposite direction (see direction r 2), the first end D1 of the blade 120 located below the base belt 110 follows the base belt 110, and the second end D2 of the blade 120 has friction with the surface to be cleaned 2000 and lags behind the movement of the first end D1 thereof, so that the second end D2 is turned over relative to the first end D1 away from the rotation direction of the base belt 110, so that the first surface S1 of the blade 120 faces the surface to be cleaned 2000, and the second surface S2 faces the base belt 110, and at this time, the first surface S1 of the blade 120 contacts the surface to be cleaned 2000, the friction resistance of the mop 100 to the surface to be cleaned 2000 is small, the cleaning effect on the cleaning surface is small, and the mop 100 walks on the surface to be cleaned 2000 more easily and smoothly.

In the mop 100, the base belt 110 is fitted to the mounting base 200 through the mounting space K formed during the actual operation. When the surface 2000 to be cleaned needs to be cleaned, the base belt 110 is driven by the mounting seat 200 to rotate in the forward direction in the enclosing direction R (see the direction R1), the second surface S2 of the blade 120 faces the surface 2000 to be cleaned, and the wiping portion 121 on the second surface S2 can perform a cleaning operation on the surface 2000 to be cleaned. When a carpet needs to be applied, the base belt 110 is driven by the mounting seat 200 to rotate in the reverse direction (see the direction R2) along the enclosing direction R, the first surface S1 of the blade 120 faces the surface 2000 to be cleaned, the carpet is not wetted, the friction force of the first surface S1 on the surface 2000 to be cleaned is small, and the cleaning device equipped with the mop 100 can walk more smoothly and labor-saving through the moving of the base belt 110.

In this embodiment, in practical application, the base band 110 is sleeved on the mounting base 200, and in order to enable the mounting base 200 to effectively support the base band 110, the outline of the projection of the mounting base 200 on the rotation plane (i.e. the plane where the enclosing direction R is located) of the base band 110 may be adapted to the base band 110. That is to say, the outline of the projection of the mounting seat 200 on the rotation plane of the base band 110 may be arranged along the enclosing direction R, and at this time, the base band 110 can be attached to the mounting seat 200 at all places, and the mounting seat 200 can effectively support the base band 110.

In the embodiment of the present application, in practical applications, the base tape 110 may have two states, in a first state, the base tape 110 is unfolded, and in a second state, the base tape 110 is wound along the enclosing direction R and encloses to form the installation space K. Wherein the base band 110 in the first state can be in a transportation, sale, etc. environment (more convenient for transportation and sale). The baseband 110 in the second state may be in a use environment. Of course, the baseband 110 may be always in the second state.

When the base tape 110 has two states, both ends of the base tape 110 in the extending direction are disconnected, and the both ends may be directly connected or structures that can be connected to each other are provided on both ends, so that the base tape 110 may be wound to form a ring structure and enclose the installation space K. When the base band 110 has two states, the assembly manner of the base band 110 and the mounting seat 200 may be different from the assembly manner shown in fig. 2, specifically, the base band 110 is wound in a circle along the outer contour of the mounting seat 200, and the defined enclosing direction R corresponds to the outer contour shape of the mounting seat 200.

It should be emphasized that it is within the scope of the present invention that the base strip 110 of the mop 100 has the second state that can enclose the installation space K along the enclosing direction R, regardless of the first state as described in the above embodiments.

Fig. 4 shows a schematic view of the structure of a mop 100 according to some embodiments of the present application, and fig. 5 shows an enlarged view at I in fig. 4.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 4, the swab 100 further comprises a connecting structure 130, and any blade 120 is connected to at least one adjacent blade 120 via the connecting structure 130, wherein each blade 120 is configured to rotate relative to the connected connecting structure 130 when the first end D1 of the blade is inverted.

The connecting structure 130 may be in the form of connecting rope, connecting sheet, connecting block, connecting cloth, etc. The connecting structure 130 may have a certain flexibility, such as being made of rubber, silicone, etc.

One connecting structure 130 may connect only two adjacent blades 120, or may connect a plurality of adjacent blades 120. The attachment structure 130 may be located between the blade 120 and the surface 2000 to be cleaned, or may be disposed on the side of the blade 120. The blade 120 can rotate relative to the connecting structure 130 during the turning process to change the angle therebetween, thereby allowing the blade to turn about its first end D1.

Understandably, the rotation of the blade 120 relative to the connecting structure 130 can be realized by rotatably connecting the blade 120 and the connecting structure 130 through a rotating shaft, or by the connection between the blade 120 and the connecting structure 130 having a weak structural strength, which can allow the blade 120 to rotate relative to the connecting structure 130. Of course, the manner in which the rotation of the blade 120 relative to the connection structure 130 is achieved is not limited to the above.

During the rotation of the base strip 110, when one of the blades 120 is turned, the connecting structure 130 can pull the other adjacent blade 120 to turn synchronously, so that the connecting structure 130 can accelerate the synchronous turning of the other blades 120 when one blade 120 is turned, and the synchronism of turning of each blade 120 can be provided.

In a further embodiment, referring to fig. 4, at least the second ends D2 of two adjacent blades 120 are not connected to each other.

When turning over, one blade 120 may bring the other blades 120 at the rear side of the turning direction to turn over through the connecting structure 130 at the rear side of the turning direction, but the blade 120 may be restricted by the connecting structure 130 at the front side of the turning direction to prevent the turning over. When the front side of the blade 120 in the turning direction is not provided with the connecting structure 130, the turning thereof is not hindered, and thus the turning is smoother.

The second ends D2 of the two connected blades 120 are not connected to each other, that is, the second ends D2 of the two blades 120 are not connected by the connecting structure 130, when one of the blades 120 is turned towards the other blade 120, the turning is not hindered by the connecting structure 130 between the two blades 120, and the turning is smoother.

In the embodiment shown in fig. 4, two adjacent sets of blades 120 are not connected by the connecting structure 130, so that the blades 120 are divided into two sets, and when one set of blades 120 is turned, it does not affect whether the other set of blades 120 is turned, and the turning of the other set of blades 120 is not limited by the other set of blades 120. Of course, in other embodiments, only one set of adjacent blades 120 may not be connected by the connecting structure 130, or more sets of adjacent blades 120 may be provided without being connected by the connecting structure 130.

In a further embodiment, referring to fig. 4, each blade 120 has a second end D2 facing away from the base strip 110, and the connecting structure 130 connects the second ends D2 of two adjacent blades 120 and can contact the surface 2000 to be cleaned.

In the process of turning over the blade 120, the motion amplitude of the second end D2 is the largest, the larger the acting force for pulling the connecting structure 130 to pull another blade 120 to turn over through the second end D2 is, the better the synchronism of turning over of the adjacent blades 120 is, and the more uniform the turning over of the blades 120 is.

Meanwhile, the connecting structure 130 is arranged at the second end D2 of the blade 120, when cleaning operation is performed, the connecting structure 130 can be in contact with cleaning, so that the static friction force between the mop 100 and the cleaned surface 2000 is increased, and when the first end D1 of each blade 120 connected with the connecting structure 130 moves along with the base belt 110 in the rotating process of the base belt 110, the second end D2 of each blade 120 can be kept still due to the larger static friction force between the connecting structure 130 and the cleaned surface 2000, so that each blade 120 can be simultaneously turned in the same direction relative to the base belt 110, the turning success rate of each blade 120 is increased, and the turning synchronism of adjacent blades 120 is also ensured.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 5, the end of the connecting structure 130 connected to the second end D2 is a connecting end D3, at least one of the connecting end D3 and the second end D2 connected thereto, and/or the first end D1 is configured as a thinned end P, and the minimum thickness of the thinned end P is 1/3-1/2 of the maximum thickness of the blade 120.

In the embodiment shown in fig. 5, the connection end D3 and the first end D1 are thinned ends P. When the connection end D3 is the thinned end P, the thickness h1 of the thinned end where the connection end D3 is located is the thickness of the connection end D3 in the direction perpendicular to the base band 110, and the minimum thickness of the thinned end P where the connection end D3 is located is the minimum thickness of the connection end D3 in the direction perpendicular to the base band 110. When the first end D1 is the thinning end P, the thickness h1 of the thinning end where the first end D1 is located is the thickness of the first end D1 in the enclosing direction R, and the minimum thickness of the thinning end P where the first end D1 is located is the minimum thickness of the first end D1 in the enclosing direction R. In other embodiments, when the second end D2 is the thinned end P, the thickness h1 of the thinned end where the second end D2 is located is the thickness of the second end D2 in the surrounding direction R, and the minimum thickness of the thinned end P where the second end D2 is located is the minimum thickness of the second end D2 in the surrounding direction R.

The thickness h2 of the blade refers to the thickness of the middle portion between the first end D1 and the second end D2 of the blade 120 in the circumferential direction R, and the thickness of the middle portion may be generally uniformly set. The maximum thickness of the blade 120 is then the maximum thickness of the intermediate portion.

Tests prove that the minimum thickness of the thinning end P is 1/3-1/2 of the maximum thickness of the blade 120, so that the blade 120 can be smoothly turned over, and the thinning end P has high strength and cannot be broken.

In some embodiments, the connecting structure 130, the blade 120, and the base strip 110 are all constructed as a single flexible piece. Specifically, the connecting structure 130, the blade 120 and the base band 110 are integrally formed of rubber, silicone, soft plastic, etc. The integral molding mode can be integral injection molding and demolding, and can also be secondary injection molding connection, and is not limited specifically as long as the finished product is an integral molding piece.

At this time, the mop cloth 100 is entirely flexible, and when the base band 110 is attached to the attachment base 200, the base band 110 can be more firmly attached to the attachment base 200 due to its flexibility. Furthermore, the blades 120 and the connection structures 130 are flexible, and the blades 120 and the connection structures 130 can be deformed to support the blades 120 to be turned.

In particular, in the embodiment, each blade 120 extends along a direction perpendicular to the plane of the enclosing direction R.

The direction perpendicular to the plane of the enclosing direction R is taken as the first direction. At this time, each blade 120 itself extends in the first direction, and is arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction R.

In this case, the blade 120 is extended in the first direction, and the blade 120 can be turned over in synchronization with each other at each position in the first direction, so that the turning-over synchronization of the blade 120 in the first direction can be ensured, the number of the connection structures 130 can be reduced, and the cost can be reduced. Meanwhile, the number of the blades 120 is small, but the cleaning area is large, the cleaning effect is good, and the structure is simple.

Of course, in other embodiments, a plurality of blades 120 may be disposed in the first direction, and the blades 120 in the first direction may be connected by a connecting member.

In a further embodiment, the connection structure 130 is arranged on at least one side of each blade 120 in the direction of extension of itself. When the connection structure 130 is disposed at a side portion of the blade 120 in the extending direction, a larger area portion of the blade 120 at the middle thereof can be effectively contacted with the surface 2000 to be cleaned after being turned over, and the cleaning effect of the mop 100 is better.

Optionally, the connecting structures 130 are disposed on two sides of each blade 120 in the extending direction of the blade 120, so that both sides of the blade 120 in the extending direction can drive two sides of the adjacent blade 120 to turn synchronously through the connecting structures 130, and the turning synchronism of the blade 120 in each place in the extending direction is better.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 5, in a direction perpendicular to the base strip 110, a length of each of the blades 120 is a first dimension J1, and a distance J2 between adjacent blades 120 in the circumferential direction R is not less than the first dimension J1.

Referring to FIG. 5, the definition of the first dimension J1 and the spacing distance J2 is shown. When the spaced distance J2 between the adjacent blades 120 is equal to or greater than the first dimension J1, the blades 120 do not overlap the adjacent blades 120 when turned over, so that the wiping part 121 between the adjacent blades 120 is prevented from being blocked, and the cleaning efficiency of the mop 100 is improved. Understandably, when the spacing distance J2 between adjacent blades 120 is equal to the first dimension J1, the cleaning area formed by all the blades 120 is the largest and the utilization rate of the blades 120 is the highest.

In some embodiments, the base strip 110 is configured to be controllably rotated in a forward direction (see direction R1) or in a reverse direction (see direction R2) in the circumferential direction R, and each blade 120 in contact with the surface 2000 to be cleaned can be flipped about its first end D1 away from the direction of rotation of the base strip 110 when the mop 100 is in a condition to perform a cleaning operation.

Referring to fig. 3, when the mop cloth 100 performs a cleaning operation, the base belt 110 is rotated in a forward direction (see direction R1) or a reverse direction (see direction R2) in the enclosing direction R by the driving of the mounting seat 200.

When the base belt 110 rotates in the forward direction (see direction r 1), the first end D1 of the blade 120 located below the base belt 110 moves along with the base belt 110, and the second end D2 of the blade 120 has friction with the surface to be cleaned 2000 and lags behind the movement of the first end D1 thereof, so that the second end D2 is reversed relative to the first end D1 away from the rotation direction of the base belt 110, so that the second surface S2 of the blade 120 faces the surface to be cleaned 2000, the first surface S1 faces the base belt 110, and the cleaning operation can be performed on the surface to be cleaned 2000 by the friction resistance of the mop 100 to the surface to be cleaned 2000 being greater due to the contact of the wiping part 121 on the second surface S2 of the blade 120 with the surface to be cleaned 2000.

Specifically, in the embodiment, the base belt 110 rotates in the surrounding direction R to form a rotation trajectory Q having a plane section Q1 facing the surface 2000 to be cleaned.

Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 shows a rotation locus Q of the base belt 110 of the mop 100 shown in fig. 4 when rotating. As can be seen from fig. 6, the rotation track Q of the base belt 110 has a plane section Q1 facing the surface 2000 to be cleaned, and when the cleaning operation is performed, the blade 120 on the base belt 110 can rub the surface 2000 to be cleaned during the process of moving along the plane section Q1 after being turned over, so that the blade 120 has a longer contact time with the surface 2000 to be cleaned, and the cleaning effect of the mop 100 is better.

Meanwhile, in the rotation process of the base belt 110, the mop cloth 100 and the cleaned surface 2000 are in surface contact all the time, the mop cloth 100 is not easy to slip, the climbing capability is strong, and the cleaning mop is more suitable for the cleaned surface 2000 with complex terrains.

In some embodiments, in a projection on a plane where the enclosing direction R is located, the base band 110 includes a first section 111, a second section 112, a third section 113, and a fourth section 114 that are connected end to end, the first section 111 and the third section 113 are disposed opposite to each other and are both circular arc sections, and the second section 112 and the fourth section 114 are disposed opposite to each other and are both straight sections. At this time, the base belt 110 has a simple structure, a small vertical size and a large horizontal area, which not only helps to reduce the height of the mop 100 and miniaturize the cleaning device, but also improves the cleaning area and the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning device.

Of course, in other embodiments, the base band 110 may have a triangular shape, a polygonal shape, a circular shape, or the like, in a projection onto the plane where the surrounding direction R is located.

In an embodiment of the present application, the mop swab 100 comprises a base strip 110, a plurality of blades 120 and a connecting structure 130, wherein the base strip 110 can enclose a mounting space K along a predetermined enclosing direction R. All the blades 120 are spaced from the base band 110 in the enclosing direction and are located outside the installation space K. Each blade 120 has a first surface S1 and a second surface S2 which are opposed to each other in the circumferential direction R, and the second surface S2 is provided with a wiping portion 121. Any blade 120 is connected to at least one adjacent blade 120 via a connecting structure 130, wherein each blade 120 is configured to rotate relative to the connected connecting structure 130 when the first end D1 of the blade is flipped over.

Fig. 7 to 9 show the mop 100 of the present embodiment, and the switching of the base strip 110 from the reverse rotation (see direction r 2) to the forward rotation (see direction r 1) is a schematic diagram of the turning process of the blade 120. In fig. 7, after the base belt 110 is laid from the carpet, the base belt 110 is switched from the reverse rotation (see direction r 2) to the forward rotation (see direction r 1) in the initial state, in which the second surface S2 of the blade 120 faces away from the surface 2000 to be cleaned and the first surface S1 faces toward the surface 2000 to be cleaned. In fig. 8, when the base belt 110 rotates forward (see direction r 1) for a certain distance, the blades 120 are bent and folded because the connecting structure 130 is kept still by the static friction with the surface 2000 to be cleaned, and the first ends D1 of the blades 120 move from right to left with the base belt 110. In fig. 9, with the blade 120 fully inverted, the second surface S2 of the blade 120 facing the surface 2000 to be cleaned and the first surface S1 facing away from the surface 2000 to be cleaned, the swab 100 can perform a cleaning operation.

Based on the same inventive concept, referring to fig. 3, some embodiments of the present application further provide a mop assembly 1000, which includes the mop 100 and the installation seat 200 in the above embodiments, the installation seat 200 is sleeved in the installation space K, and the installation seat 200 is configured to drive the base belt 110 to rotate along the enclosing direction R when being driven to rotate by an external device.

When the mop assembly 1000 needs to clean the surface 2000 to be cleaned, the base strip 110 is driven by the mounting seat 200 to rotate in the forward direction (see the direction R1) along the circumferential direction R, the second surface S2 of the blade 120 faces the surface 2000 to be cleaned, and the wiping part 121 on the second surface S2 can perform a cleaning operation on the surface 2000 to be cleaned. When a carpet needs to be applied, the base belt 110 is driven by the mounting seat 200 to rotate in the reverse direction (see the direction R2) along the enclosing direction R, the first surface S1 of the blade 120 faces the surface 2000 to be cleaned, the carpet is not wetted, the friction force of the first surface S1 on the surface 2000 to be cleaned is small, and the cleaning device equipped with the mop 100 can walk more smoothly and labor-saving through the moving of the base belt 110.

In order to realize the rotation of the baseband 110, at least one rotating shaft may be disposed on the mounting base 200, each rotating shaft is in transmission contact with the baseband 110, and each rotating shaft drives the baseband 110 to rotate around the mounting base 200 when rotating. The rotation direction of the base tape 110 is changed by changing the rotation direction of each rotation shaft. As to the specific arrangement of the rotating shaft, the skilled person can make a routine design with reference to the driving manner of the caterpillar, and the specific arrangement is not limited herein.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 2, the mounting base 200 includes a main body 201 and at least two rotating shaft portions 202, the at least two rotating shaft portions 202 are parallel to and rotatably disposed on the main body 201, the main body 201 and the rotating shaft portions 202 are both attached to the base tape 110, and when all the rotating shaft portions 202 are driven by external power to rotate, the base tape 110 is driven to rotate along the enclosing direction R.

Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the axial direction of the rotating shaft is perpendicular to the plane of the enclosing direction R. When the rotation shaft rotates, the attached base tape 110 is driven to rotate along the enclosing direction R. The rotation direction of the base band 110 can be changed by changing the rotation direction of the rotation shaft. When the rotating shaft part 202 and the main body part 201 are both attached to the base strip 110, the base strip 110 can provide better supporting force for the blade 120 in the rotating process of the base strip 110, and the contact between the blade 120 and the cleaned surface 2000 is more reliable.

Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment of the present application also provides a cleaning device (not shown) comprising the mop assembly 1000 described above. The cleaning device comprises all the advantages mentioned above, which are not described in detail herein.

The cleaning device may be a floor scrubber, a floor sweeper, or the like. The cleaning appliance generally includes a floor brush including a housing on which the mop assembly 1000 is disposed. The ground brush can also be provided with traveling wheels and the like. The cleaning apparatus may further include a water spraying structure provided on the housing for spraying water to the surface 2000 to be cleaned.

The cleaning device is further provided with a driving mechanism (not shown), the driving mechanism is arranged on the housing and is used for being in transmission connection with the mounting base 200 and driving the mounting base 200 to rotate so as to realize the rotation of the base belt 110. The driving mechanism may be a combination of a speed reducer and a pulley, or other mechanisms that can drive the mounting base 200 to rotate, and is not limited herein.

Specifically, the driving mechanism drives the rotating shaft portion 202 on the mounting seat 200 to rotate synchronously and in the same direction, so as to realize the rotation of the base band 110, and the skilled person can perform routine design and does not limit the implementation manner.

In one example, the drive mechanism may be a road wheel on the cleaning device that rotates the mount 200 when rotated under the impetus of a power source or user to effect rotation of the baseband 110.

The above-mentioned embodiments only express several embodiments of the present application, and the description thereof is more specific and detailed, but not construed as limiting the claims. It should be noted that, for a person skilled in the art, several variations and modifications can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these are all within the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present patent shall be subject to the appended claims.
