Detailed Description

In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. This invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 1, a waterway system 100 of a cleaning robot includes: a waste water tank 110 and a first tap 140. The sewage tank 110 is provided with a sewage suction port 111 and a first water outlet 112. The first tap 140 has a first water inlet port 143 and a plurality of first water outlet ports 144 respectively communicating with the first water inlet port 143. The first water inlet port 143 is connected to the first water outlet 112. The first tap 140 is adapted to control the first water outlet 112 to selectively communicate with at least one first water outlet port 144.

In the waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot, the first inlet port 143 of the first tap 140 is connected to the first outlet port 112, and the first outlet port 112 is controlled by the first tap 140 to be selectively connected to the first outlet port 144. Therefore, when the manual sewage draining function or the automatic sewage draining function is required, the first tap 140 is used to control the first water outlet 112 to selectively communicate with one of the first water outlet ports 144, so as to be used as the manual sewage draining port or the automatic sewage draining port. When the fresh water outlet function is required, the first tap 140 is used to control the first water outlet 112 to selectively communicate with the other first water outlet 144, so as to be used as a fresh water outlet. Thus, the waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot uses the first tap 140 to design the water outlet of the sewage tank 110 as a multi-tap structure, which not only retains the proper functions of the cleaning robot, but also greatly simplifies the structure of the sewage tank 110, and reduces the manufacturing cost, difficulty and water leakage risk of the sewage tank 110.

It should be noted that the first tap 140 can control the first water outlet 112 selectively to communicate with the at least one first water outlet port 144: the first water outlet 112 can be selectively communicated with one of the first water outlet ports 144 under the control of the first tap 140; alternatively, the first water outlet 112 may be simultaneously communicated with more than two first water outlet ports 144 under the control of the first tap 140, and the like. Meanwhile, the first tap 140 is of a valve structure, that is, the first tap 140 has a valve core therein, and the rotation or movement thereof can control the first water outlet 112 to be connected or disconnected with any one or more first water outlet ports 144. Since the internal structure of the first tap 140 is not the object of the improvement of the present embodiment, it is not described in detail herein, and reference may be made to the existing documents or the existing products. In addition, the number of the first outlet ports 144 may be determined according to the demand of the water circuit, such as: the first outlet port 144 may be configured with two, three, four, or more.

It should be further noted that the clear water outlet function of the sewage tank 110 is as follows: the sewage tank 110 has a filtering system, and when the sewage tank 110 sucks in the dirty water from the sewage suction port 111, the dirty water is filtered by the filtering action of the filtering system to remove impurities and dirt, and relatively clean filtered water is obtained. The partially filtered water can be discharged from the first water outlet 112 and finally discharged into the clean water tank 170 of the cleaning robot through a first water outlet port 144, thus performing a clean water outlet function of the dirty water tank 110. At this time, the first water outlet port 144 corresponds to a clean water outlet. In addition, the automatic sewage discharge function and the manual sewage discharge function of the sewage tank 110 are different discharge modes of the sewage in the sewage tank 110, respectively.

Further, referring to fig. 1, the first water inlet port 144 is communicated with the first water outlet 112 through the first pipe 130, so that the first tap 140 is configured in a maintenance bin of the cleaning robot. So, the position of this embodiment rational layout first tap 140, when needing to maintain first tap 140, user or maintainer only need open maintain the storehouse can, effectively reduce cleaning machines people's maintenance degree of difficulty and cost like this.

Alternatively, the first tap 140 may be disposed in the maintenance bin in a manner such as, but not limited to, bolting, snapping, riveting, welding, integrally forming, etc.

Further, referring to fig. 1, the first tap 140 includes a first member 141 and a second member 142 connected to the first member 141, one end of the first member 141 forms a first water inlet 143, the other end of the first member 141 forms a first water outlet 144, and two opposite ends of the second member 142 form the first water outlet 144, that is, a user can connect different water outlets to the corresponding first water outlets 144 of the first member 141 and the second member 142 according to a functional requirement.

It should be noted that the first member 141 and the second member 142 are both valve structures, but it is understood that the first tap 140 of the present embodiment is a four-way valve device.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 1, the waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot further includes a second pipe 120. One end of the second pipe 120 is connected to the dirt suction opening 111, and the other end of the second pipe 120 is connected to the outside for sucking dirt and dust. Therefore, the second pipe 120 is connected to the soil suction port 111, and the other end is connected to the outside, that is, in a standby state. When dirt needs to be sucked, one end of the second pipe 120 is placed on the ground, so that the sewage tank 110 can suck and collect dirty water and partial garbage after the ground is washed, and a negative pressure suction function is realized.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 1, the waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot further includes a connection seat 150. The second pipe 120 and the first pipe 130 are both correspondingly communicated with the dirt suction port 111 and the first water outlet 112 through the connecting seat 150. Thus, the second pipe 120 and the first pipe 130 are mounted on the sewage tank 110 by the connection seat 150, so that the overall structure of the waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot is kept compact, and the overall occupied space is reduced. Meanwhile, the second pipe 120 and the first pipe 130 are conveniently mounted on the sewage tank 110 together through the connection seat 150, and the assembly difficulty of the waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot is reduced.

Further, referring to fig. 1, the connecting seat 150 is provided with a first flow channel 151 and a second flow channel 152 at an interval. The second pipe 120 communicates with the soil suction port 111 through the first flow passage 151. The first pipe 130 communicates with the first water outlet 112 through the second flow passage 152. Therefore, the second pipe 120 and the first pipe 130 are ensured to be respectively and correspondingly communicated with the dirt suction port 111 and the first water outlet 112 stably.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 2, the waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot further includes a water adding tank 160, a clean water tank 170, and a second tap (not shown). The water filling tank 160 is provided with a water filling port 161 and a second water outlet 162. The clean water tank 170 is provided with a first water port 171 and a second water port 172. The second water port 172 communicates with the second water outlet 162 (i.e., the second water port 172 is a water filling port of the clean water tank 170). The second branch joint is provided with a second water inlet port and at least three second water outlet ports which are respectively communicated with the second water inlet port. The second water inlet port is communicated with the first water inlet 171 (i.e. the first water inlet 171 is a water outlet of the clean water tank 170), and the at least three second water outlet ports are respectively used for a clean water outlet, a liquid level meter interface and a water outlet. It can be seen that during cleaning, water is added from the filler 161 to the filler tank 160; and then flows from the second water outlet 162 to the second water gap 172 to be stored in the clean water tank 170 for cleaning. Since the first water gap 171 communicates with the second tap having three second water outlet ports. Therefore, when a clean water discharging function (such as mopping water) is required, one of the second water outlet ports is used as a clean water discharging port. When the liquid level metering function is required, one of the second water outlet ports is used as a liquid level meter interface. When a drainage emptying function (such as long-time storage, packaging and the like) needs to be carried out, one of the second water outlet ports is used as a drainage outlet. So, this embodiment only sets up two water gap structures on clear water tank 170, under the prerequisite that does not cut down the function, simplifies inlet outlet structural design, greatly reduces manufacturing cost and the risk of leaking.

The second tap is of a valve-like structure, that is, a valve core is provided in the second tap, and the rotation or movement of the valve core can control the first water port 171 to be in a state of being connected to or disconnected from any one or two or more second water outlet ports. Since the internal structure of the second tap is not the object of the improvement of the present embodiment, it is not described in detail herein, and reference may be made directly to the existing documents or existing products.

It should be noted that the water filling mode of the water filling opening 161 may be automatic water filling or manual water filling, and this embodiment is not particularly limited.

Further, referring to fig. 2, the waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot further includes a third tap (not shown). The third tap is provided with a third water outlet port and at least two third water inlet ports which are respectively communicated with the third water outlet port. The third outlet port communicates with the second water gap 172. A third water inlet port communicates with the second water outlet 162 and a third water inlet port communicates with a first water outlet port 144. Therefore, the third tap is communicated with the second water gap 172, so that the water in the water filling tank 160 can stably enter the second water gap 172, and the requirement that the clean water (filtered water filtered by the filtering system) in the sewage tank 110 flows into the second water outlet 162 is met.

Further, referring to fig. 2, the waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot further includes an overflow structure (not shown), the number of the third water inlet ports of the third tap is more than three, and the overflow structure is communicated with one third water inlet port, so that a port is additionally provided on the third tap to overflow the water in the second water inlet 172 into the overflow structure, so as to effectively avoid the risk of machine accidents or water soaking caused by the fact that water is always added due to human or machine failure when the clean water tank 170 is filled with water.

Specifically, the overflow structure can be the overflow mouth structure, when in actual use, can extend overflow mouth structure one end outside cleaning machines people through the pipe fitting, directly outflows with unnecessary water.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 2, the waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot further includes a sealing ring 180. The sealing ring 180 is located between the second water outlet 172 and the second water outlet 162, and is in sealing fit between the water filling tank 160 and the clean water tank 170, so as to improve the sealing performance of the cleaning robot and reduce the water leakage risk of the cleaning robot.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 1, a cleaning robot includes a waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot in any one of the above embodiments.

The cleaning robot adopts the waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot, and the first water inlet port 143 of the first tap 140 is connected to the first water outlet 112, and the first water outlet 112 is controlled by the first tap 140 to be selectively connected to the first water outlet port 144. Therefore, when the manual sewage draining function or the automatic sewage draining function is required, the first tap 140 is utilized to control the first water outlet 112 to selectively communicate with one of the first water outlet ports 144 for use as a manual sewage draining port or an automatic sewage draining port. When the fresh water outlet function is required, the first tap 140 is used to control the first water outlet 112 to selectively communicate with the other first water outlet 144, so as to be used as a fresh water outlet. Thus, the waterway system 100 of the cleaning robot utilizes the first tap 140 to design the water outlet of the sewage tank 110 as a multi-tap structure, which not only retains the proper functions of the cleaning robot, but also greatly simplifies the structure of the sewage tank 110, and reduces the manufacturing cost, difficulty and water leakage risk of the sewage tank 110.
