The base body assembly 110 is used as a carrying carrier of a main functional structure in the base station 100, the base body assembly 110 includes a base 111 located at the bottom and a chassis 112 covering the base 111, the base 111 forms a containing cavity 1111 with a lateral opening 1112, a cleaning tank 1114 is arranged in the containing cavity 1111, a water wiping part 111a and a positioning part 111b are arranged on the cleaning tank 1114, the water wiping part 111a and the positioning part 111b are arranged at intervals along the direction facing the lateral opening 1112, and the positioning part 111b is located between the water wiping part 111a and the guiding part 140; at least part of the wiper portion 111a and the positioning portion 111b are configured together to form a support structure 1113, and an upper surface of the support structure 1113 is disposed obliquely from top to bottom toward an extending direction of the slope 141. The wiper 111a is disposed on a side of the cleaning tank 1114 away from the guide 140, and can be used for wiping water stains on the wiping member 220, and the wiper 111a includes a protrusion protruding from the bottom of the cleaning tank and a plurality of protrusions distributed on the top of the protrusion, and can be used for being embedded into the wiping member 220 to clean the wiping member 220 during wiping; the positioning part 111b is disposed on one side of the cleaning tank 1114 close to the guide 140, and the positioning part 111b has a positioning and supporting function for the mopping piece 220 to stop on the cleaning tank 1114.

Referring to fig. 10 to 12, the guiding element 140 is abutted against the base 111 and extends outward from the lateral opening 1112 of the receiving cavity 1111, and the climbing surface 141 is used for engaging the lateral opening 1112 and a cleaning surface (e.g., a floor). In one embodiment, the main structure of the guide 140 includes a housing having a top wall and side walls connected to opposite sides of the top wall, whereby the top wall and the side walls cooperate to support the cleaning surface, and a ramp 141 is formed on an upper surface of the top wall.

In one arrangement, the guide 140 may be a unitary structure with the base 111, and may be made of the same material, such as plastic, metal, etc., or different materials, and may be manufactured by welding or two-shot molding. With the guide member 140 and the base 111 being integrally formed, the entire base station 100 has a feature of convenient transportation. In other arrangements, the guide 140 may be a separate structure from the base 111, the guide 140 may be detachably connected to the base 111, and the detachable connection between the guide 140 and the base 111 may be various forms such as snap connection, screw connection, magnetic connection, and the like. Under the form that guide 140 and base 111 are for dismantling the connection, in long-time use, when needing to wash base station 100, can separate guide 140 and base 111 to wash both respectively, wash more thoroughly like this, can not form sanitary dead angle at the junction of the two, thereby can reduce breeding of bacterium, reduce the secondary pollution's of cleaning machines people 200 in-process to service environment to getting into and out of base station 100 possibility, and promote user's sanitary safety.

The guide 140 has a transverse width substantially corresponding to the width of the lateral opening 1112 of the receiving cavity 1111. The ascending surface 141 is formed with a limiting portion 1411, the limiting portion 1411 is used for supporting the driving wheel 230 and limiting the travel distance of the driving wheel 230 on the ascending surface 141, so that the mopping member 220 is parked on the supporting structure 1113, and the limiting portion 1411 and the supporting structure 1113 together enable the cleaning robot 200 to be parked in the receiving cavity 1111 in an inclined posture. In this embodiment, after the cleaning robot 200 climbs along the guiding member 140 and finally enters the receiving cavity 1111, the driving wheel 230 is limited by the limiting portion 1411 to travel distance and stops at the limiting portion 1411, at this time, the mopping member 220 falls into the designated area of the supporting structure 1113 to stop, at this time, part of the structure of the cleaning robot 200 in the inclined state stops in the space above the receiving cavity 1111, and the available space below the receiving cavity 1111 is increased, so that the space below the cleaning tank 1114 for storing sewage can be expanded, and the problem of insufficient space for storing sewage can be solved.

According to the technical scheme, the supporting structure 1113 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 1111, the limiting part 1411 is arranged on the guiding part 140, and the limiting part 1411 and the supporting structure 1113 respectively act on the mopping part 220 and the driving wheel 230 on the cleaning robot 200 at two corresponding positions, so that the cleaning robot 200 can be stably parked in the accommodating cavity 1111 in an inclined posture. Compared with the existing scheme, due to the fact that the cleaning robot 200 can be stopped in the containing cavity 1111 in an inclined posture, the cleaning robot 200 can be contained in the containing cavity 1111 in an idle space above the containing cavity 1111, the space below the containing cavity 1111 is vacated, the structural design of the cleaning tank 1114 is optimized, for example, the space below the cleaning tank 1114 for storing sewage is enlarged, and the sewage can be effectively prevented from overflowing from the cleaning tank 1114; this can greatly reduce the size of the entire base station 100, making it compact, thereby optimizing the overall use of the interior space of the housing 1111.

The cleaning robot 200 has an elution integration function, and the robot main body 210 is further provided with a wiping member 220. After the cleaning robot 200 is mopped, the cleaning of the mop 220 is required to ensure proper operation. To this end, a cleaning groove 1114 is provided in the receiving chamber 1111, and the wiper 220 is inserted into the cleaning groove 1114 when the cleaning robot 200 is parked in the receiving chamber 1111. The base station 100 supplies cleaning water into the cleaning bowl 1114 through a clean water tank to allow the mop 220 to clean during rotation. In one arrangement, the cleaning groove 1114 has a protrusion on the wiper portion 111a that can be in interference contact with the wiping member 220, and the dirt adhered to the wiping member 220 can be quickly removed during the rotation of the wiping member 220. The cleaning tank 1114 is further provided with a drain outlet which is communicated with the sewage tank through a pipeline, and sewage generated after the cleaning of the mopping piece 220 is collected to the sewage tank through the drain outlet and the pipeline.

In one embodiment, the slope 141 includes a first guide surface 142 extending obliquely downward in a direction away from the housing chamber 1111 and a second guide surface 143 connected to a side of the first guide surface 142 away from the housing chamber 1111. Wherein the second guide surface 143 has a slope greater than the slope of the first guide surface 142.

In this embodiment, the slope of the first guide surface 142 and the slope of the second guide surface 143 are the slopes of each of them compared to the horizontal plane, that is, the angle between the second guide surface 143 and the horizontal plane is larger than the angle between the first guide surface 142 and the horizontal plane. The second guide surface 143 is for engaging the cleaning surface with the first guide surface 142, so that the gap between the entire guide member 140 and the cleaning surface is small. This is more smooth when the cleaning robot 200 enters the receiving chamber 1111 through the guide 140. The present embodiment also sets the slope of the second guide surface 143 to be greater than the slope of the first guide surface 142, so that the second guide surface 143 can contact the cleaning work surface with a shorter extension distance, which makes it possible to relatively reduce the size of the entire guide member 140 compared to a design in which the extension to the cleaning work surface is performed directly by the first guide surface 142, thereby making the entire base station 100 compact.

Since the second guide surface 143 has a relatively small size and an included angle is formed between the second guide surface 143 and the first guide surface 142, a stress concentration phenomenon is likely to occur. To this end, the guide member 140 is further provided with criss-cross ribs 144 (see fig. 15) on the side opposite to the second guide surface 143. The reinforcing ribs 144 include a long rib and a V-shaped rib, which extend in the width direction on the side of the guide member 140 opposite to the second guide surface 143, so that the guide member 140 has a high structural strength and a stable structure corresponding to the second guide surface 143.

Referring to fig. 3 to 5, 8 and 10, in an embodiment, the first guide surface 142 includes a middle-swept bypass region 1423 and two anti-skid regions 1421 respectively located at left and right opposite sides of the middle-swept bypass region 1423, and both the middle-swept bypass region 1423 and the anti-skid regions 1421 extend in a direction away from the receiving cavity 1111. The scan avoiding region 1423 is located approximately at the middle of the first guide surface 142 in the present embodiment, and the width of the scan avoiding region 1423 corresponds to the length of the scan brush 250 on the cleaning robot 200. The middle-scan avoiding region 1423 has a substantially planar structure disposed obliquely. The middle sweeping avoiding region 1423 is recessed downward relative to the anti-slip region 1421 to avoid the middle sweeping roller brush 250 on the cleaning robot 200, the anti-slip region 1421 is used for the driving wheel 230 to pass through, and the limiting portion 1411 is formed on one side of the anti-slip region 1421 close to the receiving cavity 1111. That is, in the operation process, after the cleaning robot 200 climbs to the first guide surface 142 along the second guide surface 143, the driving wheels 230 on both sides move along an anti-slip region 1421, the middle sweeping roller 250 on the cleaning robot 200 just avoids the middle sweeping avoiding region 1423 and rolls on the middle sweeping avoiding region 1423, after the driving wheel 230 moves to the limiting portion 1411, the interface component on the cleaning robot 200 just abuts against the interface component in the receiving cavity 1111, and the limiting portion 1411 limits the driving wheel 230, so that the cleaning robot 200 stops moving after reaching the designated position of the climbing surface 141. In this embodiment, the anti-slip region 1421 is provided with the limiting portion 1411, so that the mopping member 220 can be accurately parked on the supporting structure 1113 without exceeding the range beyond the supporting structure 1113, and the cleaning robot 200 can be parked in the accommodating cavity 1111 in an inclined posture, and the overall structure is compact.

In one configuration, the limiting portion 1411 is a limiting groove concavely formed in the anti-slip region 1421, and the opening shape of the limiting groove is adapted to the outer contour shape of the driving wheel 230. The limiting portion 1411 of the embodiment is designed as a limiting groove, so that the cleaning robot 200 can be parked in the accommodating chamber 1111 in an inclined posture by a simple structure.

Further, referring to fig. 12 and 13, at least two friction ribs 1412 and a stopping rib 1413 are arranged in the limiting groove in a direction away from the receiving cavity 1111, and the stopping rib 1413 is located at a side of the limiting groove away from the receiving cavity 1111; the free end of the stopper rib 1413 is higher than the free end of the friction rib 1412, and the free end of the stopper rib 1413 is formed in a wedge shape inclined toward the receiving cavity 1111.

Because the driving wheel 230 of the cleaning robot 200 is usually provided with anti-slip lines, the friction rib 1412 and the stopping rib 1413 are arranged in the limiting groove in the embodiment, the grip capacity of the cleaning robot 200 can be improved through the friction rib 1412, and the height of the stopping rib 1413 is higher than that of the friction rib 1412, so that the stopping rib 1413 blocks the driving wheel 230 in the backward direction, and the cleaning robot 200 can be effectively prevented from being butted with the joint component in the accommodating cavity 1111 in the process of backward movement, and the phenomenon of loosening of the joint component due to backward movement is avoided. In addition, in this embodiment, the free end of the stopping rib 1413 is formed into a wedge shape inclined toward the receiving cavity 1111, because the wedge-shaped structure has a guide surface facing the receiving cavity 1111, the driving wheel 230 is less obstructed when the cleaning robot 200 enters the receiving cavity 1111, and the wedge-shaped structure is more easily inserted into the anti-slip pattern on the driving wheel 230 to form a locking state when the driving wheel 230 is retreated, so that the stability of the cleaning robot 200 in the process of abutting the joint assembly can be effectively ensured.

The anti-slip region 1421 includes a first anti-slip slope section 1422 and a second anti-slip slope section 1424 which are sequentially connected in the direction away from the housing cavity 1111, and the limiting portion 1411 is disposed on one side of the first anti-slip slope section 1422 close to the housing cavity 1111. Wherein, the slope of the first anti-skid slope section 1422 is smaller than the slope of the second anti-skid slope section 1424. In this embodiment, the second anti-slip slope section 1424 is located at the front section of the travel of the cleaning robot 200 entering the accommodating cavity 1111, and the slope of the first anti-slip slope section 1422 is smaller than the slope of the second anti-slip slope section 1424, so that when the cleaning robot 200 enters the accommodating cavity 1111, the overall upwarp degree is higher on the second anti-slip slope section 1424, if the cleaning robot directly enters the accommodating cavity 1111 in such a posture, the position of the accommodating cavity 1111 is also higher, and thus the overall height may be higher for the base station 100, which is not beneficial to the compact structure of the base station. The height of the first anti-slip slope section 1422 of this embodiment is reduced, so that the inclination of the cleaning robot 200 is adjusted, and the height of the accommodating cavity 1111 can be relatively reduced, so that the overall height of the base station 100 is not too high, and the structure is compact.

Further, referring to fig. 8, fig. 10 and fig. 11 in combination, the first guide surface 142 further includes a mop component avoiding region 1428 for avoiding the mop component 220, the mop component avoiding region 1428 is located on one side of the first anti-skid slope section 1422 close to the receiving cavity 1111 and is connected to the lateral opening 1112 of the receiving cavity 1111, wherein a slope of the mop component avoiding region 1428 is equal to a slope of the second anti-skid slope section 1424. Since the driving wheel 230 is positioned between the front end of the cleaning robot 200 and the universal wheel 240, the mop 220 is generally installed at a side of the front end. In this embodiment, when the driving wheel 230 passes through the connection between the second anti-slip slope section 1424 and the first anti-slip slope section 1422, the wiping member 220 is also aligned and passes through the wiping member avoiding region 1428, and the wiping member 220 will enter the cleaning groove 1114 after passing through the wiping member avoiding region 1428.
