In some embodiments, the top wall of the main body 21 is further provided with a water injection hole 214, the water injection hole communicates the accommodating chamber with the external environment, and a user can inject a cleaning solution of water into the accommodating chamber through the water injection hole 214.

The mop module 40 includes a mop mounting member 41 and a mop body 43. The mop mounting member 41 comprises a mounting member body 412, and in particular embodiments, the mounting member body 412 is of a plate-like configuration and extends lengthwise in a second direction. The mop mount 41 comprises a first fixing surface (not shown) and a second fixing surface (not shown) arranged opposite to each other in a first direction, at least part of the mop body 43 being arranged to overlie the first fixing surface to form a cleaning surface of the mop module 40, and the second fixing surface forming a mounting surface on which the mop module 40 is arranged opposite to the cleaning surface. When the mop module 40 is mounted to the main body, the cleaning surface faces the object to be cleaned and the mop body 43 is brought into contact with the object to be cleaned. The mounting surface and the cleaning surface are perpendicular to the first direction and are arranged oppositely in the first direction.

To effect attachment of the tank 20 to the mop module 40, the tank 20 is held against a mounting surface of the mop module 40 and is movable relative to the mop module 40 in a direction parallel to the mounting surface and is snapped into engagement with the mop module 40.

Specifically, the water tank 20 further includes a tank catch 23 provided at one side of the main tank 21. The mop mounting 41 includes a mop retaining portion 414. the mop retaining portion 414 projects in a first direction from a second fixed surface of the mop mounting 41. The main casing 21 and/or the casing holder 23 are held against the second fixing surface in the first direction, and the casing holder 23 and the mop holder 414 are constructed to be capable of relative movement in a plane perpendicular to the first direction and to be engaged with each other.

Specifically, the case catch 23 and the mop catch 414 are configured to be capable of relative movement in a third direction. When the water tank 20 and the mop module 40 are coupled, the main tank 21 and the tank holder 23 are held against the second fixing surface in the first direction, and the tank holder 23 and the mop holder 414 are engaged with each other in the third direction. Preferably, the orthographic projection of the main box body 21 on the plane of the second fixing surface is entirely located in the second fixing surface.

So, compare in the water tank and the mutual joint of mop module along the first direction of prior art, water tank 20 and mop module 40 in this application are in the mutual joint in the plane of perpendicular to first direction, consequently when this mop subassembly 100 connects in the main part back, usable water tank 20 and main part restraint mop module 40 jointly, and be different from relying on water tank 20 to fix mop module 40 completely among the prior art to when having guaranteed mop module 40's installation fastness, mop module 40 can conveniently be dismantled from water tank 20.

Specifically, in one embodiment, the water tank 20 includes two tank retainers 23, the two tank retainers 23 are spaced apart from each other in the second direction and are located at opposite ends of the main tank 21 in the second direction, one end of each tank retainer 23 is located at one side of the main tank 21 in the first direction (i.e., the bottom wall of the main tank), and the other end of each tank retainer 23 extends outward from the main tank 21 in the third direction and in a direction away from the side wall of the main tank. More specifically, each of the box catches 23 includes two box catches that are spaced apart in the second direction, with a box catch gap defined between the two box catches of the same box catch 23 that forms a box catch gap for catching the mop catch 414.

The mop mounting 41 includes two mop retaining parts 414, the two mop retaining parts 414 being spaced apart in the second direction and located at opposite ends of the mop mounting 41 in the second direction, each mop retaining part 414 being provided corresponding to one of the case retaining parts 23, respectively. Each mop holding part 414 includes a first holding end 4141 provided at the second fixing surface of the mounting member main body 412 in a protruding manner in the first direction, and a second holding end provided at an end of the first holding end 4141 remote from the mounting member main body 412. The dimension of the first catching end 4141 in the second direction is smaller than the dimension of the case catching gap in the second direction, and the dimension of the second catching end in the second direction is larger than the dimension of the case catching gap in the second direction.

In this manner, the first retaining end 4141 of the mop retaining part 414 can be inserted into the case retaining gap of the case retaining part 23 in the third direction, so that the water tank 20 and the mop module 40 are relatively fixed in the third direction. And the mop mount 41 and the water tank 20 are prevented from being separated from each other in the first direction because the dimension of the second catching end in the second direction is greater than the dimension of the tank catching gap in the second direction.

Further in some embodiments, the first catching end 4141 of the mop catch 414 protrudes with a stopper protrusion 4141a at either side in the second direction, and the mop catch 414 can be resiliently deformed in the second direction. One of the box body catching arms of the box body catching part 23 is provided with a limiting groove 232 matched with the limiting protrusion 4141a, and the limiting protrusion 4141a is limited in the limiting groove 232. Specifically, in some embodiments, the restraining projection 4141a is provided at the side of the first retaining end 4141 of either mop retaining portion 414 that faces the other mop retaining portion 414.

In this manner, when the mop mounting member 41 and the water tank 20 are relatively moved in the third direction, the mop holder 414 is deformed by the pressing force of the tank holder 23 until the mop holder 414 is restored to the original state after the restricting projection 4141a is caught in the restricting recess 232, and thus the restricting projection 4141a is stably held in the restricting recess 232. When separating the mop mounting member 41 from the water tank, the user applies an opposite force in the third direction to the mop mounting member 41 and the water tank 20, and the mop catching part 414 is deformed to separate the restricting protrusions 4141a from the restricting grooves 232, thereby finally achieving the mutual separation of the mop mounting member 41 and the water tank 20.

It will be appreciated that the number and the arrangement positions of the case catch 23 and the mop catch 414 are not limited, and may be differently arranged or arranged at different positions as needed. For example, in some embodiments, the water tank 20 includes three tank catches 23, the three tank catches 23 are spaced apart in the second direction, and accordingly, the mop mounting 41 includes three mop catches 414, the three mop catches 414 are spaced apart in the second direction, and each mop catch 414 engages with one of the tank catches 23.

In some embodiments, the mop holding portion 414 has a receiving cavity, and the mop mounting member 41 further includes a suction member 416 received in the receiving cavity for sucking the main body in a first direction. In this manner, the mop mounting member 41 is retained in the first orientation relative to the main body by the suction member 416, thereby preventing the mop mounting member 41 from falling off the main body in the first orientation. Specifically, in one embodiment, the attraction member 416 is a magnet, and the main body is correspondingly provided with a magnet having a magnetic polarity opposite to that of the attraction member 416, so that the mop mounting member 41 can be attracted to the main body along the first direction.

In the above-mentioned mop assembly 100 and the cleaning device having the same, the water tank 20 and the mop module 40 are horizontally connected to each other by the mutual engagement of the tank body engaging portion 23 and the mop engaging portion 414, and when the water tank 20 is mounted to the main body, the water tank 20 and the main body can be used to jointly restrain the mop module 40, thereby reducing the engagement amount between the water tank 20 and the mop module 40. When the mop module 40 needs to be disassembled, the mop assembly 100 can be disassembled from the main body, and the main body can easily disassemble the mop module 40 from the water tank 20 because the restraint of the main body on the mop module 40 disappears, so that the mop module 40 can be conveniently disassembled while the installation reliability of the mop module 40 is ensured, and convenience is brought to the use of cleaning equipment.

The technical features of the embodiments described above may be arbitrarily combined, and for the sake of brevity, all possible combinations of the technical features in the embodiments described above are not described, but should be considered as being within the scope of the present specification as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features.

The above-mentioned embodiments only express several embodiments of the present invention, and the description thereof is more specific and detailed, but not construed as limiting the scope of the utility model. It should be noted that, for a person skilled in the art, several variations and modifications can be made without departing from the inventive concept, which falls within the scope of the present invention.
