The lower end of the ejector part 34 is topped with an upper holding spring 35, and the upper end of the upper holding spring 35 is holding against at the ejector part 34. The lower end of the upper holding spring 35 is holding against at the lower shell 26 so as to have an outward holding tendency.

The tail portion of the upper advancing frame 22 and the tail portion of the lower advancing frame 30 are located in the inner concave portion 35 when the central axis 8 is in a free state; during washing, the mop head 5 press down the central axis 8, at this time, the outer convex portion 36 of the ejector part pushes the upper advancing frame 22 and the lower advancing frame 30 outwardly, so that the upper ratchet 21 and the lower ratchet 29 are inserted into the ratchet row 18.

Of course, the specific structural form of the ejector part 34 is not limited to the above structure. As long as the central axis 8 is in a free state, the tail portion of the upper ratchet assembly and the tail portion of the lower ratchet assembly are not holding against by the ejector part, therefore the upper ratchet assembly and the lower ratchet assembly are unstressed to a retracted state; the central axis 8 is pressed down during washing, at which time the ejector part pus the upper ratchet assembly and the lower ratchet assembly outwardly, so that the upper ratchet 21 and the lower ratchet 29 are inserted into the ratchet row. For example, the ejector part 34 is arranged as two parts, an upper part and a lower part.

38.

After the mop head 5 is cleaned and dehydrated, the elevating head 6 is disengaged, and the elevating head 6, the lifting cylinder 11, the cam 9, the upper lifting assembly 15, the connecting component, and the lower lifting assembly 16 all automatically descend back.

When the above mechanism is adopted, the specific operation process of the cleaning and dehydration of the present invention is: in the initial state, the elevating head 6 is at the low level, the central axis 8 is in a free state and is not pressed by an external force, and at this time, under the acting of the upper inner holding spring 23, the tail portion of the upper advancing frame 22 of the lower upper ratchet assembly is located in the inner concave portion 35 of the ejector part, and under the acting of the lower inner holding spring 31, the tail portion of the lower advancing frame 30 of the lower upper ratchet assembly is located in the inner concave portion 35 of the ejector part. Thus, the upper ratchet 21 on the upper ratchet block 24 is not inserted into the ratchet row 18 of the ratchet piece 17, and the lower ratchet 29 of the lower ratchet block 32 is not inserted into the ratchet row 18 of the ratchet piece 17.

During washing, the mop head 5 is placed on the elevating head 6, the mop head 5 and the elevating head 6 are connected, and the mop head 5 presses the central axis 8 downward, that is, press down the ejector part 34, and the ejector part 34 being pressed down, the outer convex portion 36 of the ejector part pushes the upper ratchet assembly and the lower ratchet assembly outwardly such that the upper ratchet 21 and the lower ratchet 29 are inserted into the ratchet row 18 of the ratchet piece 17. Pressing down the upper rod 3 of the mop, the driving mechanism drives the lower rod 4 and the mop head 5 to rotate, so that the mop head 5 drives the elevating head 6 to rotate, and the rotation of the elevating head 6 drives the cam 9 to rotate, so that the guiding protrusions 12 on the lifting cylinder moves along the cam groove 10 and causes the lifting cylinder 11 to rise.

The rise of the lifting cylinder 11 drives the upper lifting assembly 15 (including the upper receiving frame 19, the upper advancing frame 22, the upper ratchet block 24, the upper inner holding spring 23, the upper outer holding spring 25) to rise, since the upper ratchet 21 of the upper ratchet block and the ratchet row 18 of the ratchet piece are ratcheted, the upper ratchet 21 of the upper ratchet block does not have obstruction for the rising of the upper lifting assembly 15. When the cam 8 is rotated to a certain extent, the lifting cylinder 11 is raised to the highest point, and after the cam 9 is rotated again, the lifting cylinder 11 will descend, and the upper lifting assembly 15 will also descend. However, since the upper ratchet 21 of the upper ratchet block and the ratchet row 18 of the ratchet piece are ratcheted, the upper lifting assembly 15 cannot descend, and the lifting cylinder 11 cannot descend. At this time, the cam 9 continues to rotate, and the guiding protrusions 12 of the lifting cylinder are used as a fulcrum, and the cam 9 rises while rotating. The rising of the cam 9 drives the elevating head 6 and the connecting sleeve 38 to rise, and the rising of the connecting sleeve 38 drives lower advancing frame 30 break through therein to rise, so that the lower lifting assembly 16 (including the lower shell 26, the lower receiving frame 27, the lower advancing frame 30, the lower ratchet block 32, the lower inner holding spring 31, the lower outer holding spring 33) to rise, since the lower ratchet 21 of the lower ratchet block and the ratchet row 18 of the ratchet piece are ratcheted, the lower ratchet 21 of the lower ratchet block does not have obstruction for the rising of the lower lifting assembly 15. When the lower lifting assembly 16 is raised, the ejector part 34 is also driven to rise synchronously, and the outer convex portion 36 of the ejector part maintains the pushing effect of the upper ratchet assembly and the lower ratchet assembly. At this point, the elevating head 6 rises, so the mop head 5 also rises.

After the cam has risen to a certain extent, the cam 9 continues to rotate, and the lower lifting assembly 16 is raised to the highest point, and the lower lifting assembly 16 will descend after the cam 9 is rotated again. However, since the lower ratchet 29 of the lower ratchet block and the ratchet row 18 of the ratchet are ratcheted, the lower lift assembly 16 cannot descend. At this time, the cam 9 continues to rotate, and the guiding protrusions 12 on the lifting cylinder 11 move along the cam groove 10 again to raise the lift cylinder 11. The rising of the lift cylinder 11 causes the upper lift assembly 15 to rise. In this cycle action, the elevating head 6 is continuously rising, the mop head 5 is also continuously rising, the mop head 5 is initially rotated and washed in the water, and after being raised above the water surface, the spin-dry is performed. After the wiping object on the mop head 5 is dried, remove the mop, disengage the mop head 5 and the elevating head 6, and the mop head 5 is no longer pressed against the central axis 8. Under the action of the upper holding spring 37, the ejector part 34 and the central axis 8 are raised, the tail portion of the upper advancing frame 30 of the upper ratchet assembly and the tail portion of the lower advancing frame 30 of the lower ratchet assembly return again at the inner concave portion 35 of the elevating head.

The upper ratchet 21 on the upper ratchet block and the lower ratchet 29 of the lower ratchet block are disengaged from the ratchet row 17 of the ratchet piece 18, so that the upper lifting assembly 15 and the lower lifting assembly 16 automatically descend back, and the falling of the upper lifting assembly 15 causes the lifting cylinder 11 to automatically descend back. After the descending of the lower lifting assembly 16, the central axis 8 and the ejector part 34 are lost support and automatically fall back.
