Abstract
Description
本發明係關於一種清掃機器人。 The invention relates to a cleaning robot.
人們為了衛生和清潔會打掃自己的生活環境。清掃的理由有很多。舉例來說,清掃可保護身體免於生病,或防止支氣管不舒服。而且,清掃的目的是為了生活品質,例如能使用乾淨的空間。 People clean their living environment for hygiene and cleanliness. There are many reasons for cleaning. For example, cleaning can protect the body from illness or prevent bronchial discomfort. Moreover, the purpose of cleaning is for the quality of life, such as being able to use a clean space.
灰塵和異物因重力而落在地上。因此,為了進行清掃,人們常會彎腰或蹲下,這很容易對腰部和關節施造成負擔。 Dust and foreign objects fall to the ground due to gravity. Therefore, in order to clean, people often bend over or squat down, which can easily put a burden on the waist and joints.
對此,這幾年已出現了協助人類清掃的清掃機。清掃機大致可分為方便的手持棒式清掃機、桿式清掃機、以及清掃機器人等。 In this regard, in recent years there have been sweeping machines that assist humans in cleaning. Sweeping machines can be roughly divided into convenient hand-held stick sweeping machines, pole sweeping machines, and sweeping robots.
在這些類型中,清掃機器人能代替使用者清掃特定空間,如家中、辦公室等。清掃機器人通常藉由吸入待清掃區域中的灰塵來進行清掃。 In these types, cleaning robots can replace users to clean specific spaces, such as homes, offices, and so on. The cleaning robot usually cleans by sucking the dust in the area to be cleaned.
然而,也不能說清掃只透過吸灰塵便能完成。原因是有些灰塵無法透過清掃機器人的吸力來移除。舉例來說,附著在地板表面的異物或大於清掃機器人吸入管的灰塵很難只用清掃機器人的吸力就移除。 However, it cannot be said that cleaning can be done only by sucking dust. The reason is that some dust cannot be removed by the suction of the cleaning robot. For example, foreign objects attached to the floor surface or dust larger than the suction pipe of the cleaning robot are difficult to remove with only the suction of the cleaning robot.
根據中國專利第104545707號,揭露了一種清掃機器人,其中滾筒拖把能拖地。然而,即使是在該專利文件中,也沒有關於增加清掃機與地板接觸面積之方法的特定發明。 According to Chinese Patent No. 104545707, a cleaning robot is disclosed, in which a roller mop can mop the floor. However, even in this patent document, there is no specific invention on the method of increasing the area of contact between the sweeper and the floor.
根據一實施例,本發明旨在提供一種清掃機器人,其能在行進表面上進行吸入灰塵的清掃和在行進表面上拖地的清掃。 According to an embodiment, the present invention aims to provide a cleaning robot that can perform dust-inhaled cleaning on a traveling surface and mopping cleaning on the traveling surface.
具體而言,本發明旨在提供一種清掃機器人,其具有藉由透過拖把單元的旋轉移動驅動幫浦來供水給拖把的構造。 Specifically, the present invention aims to provide a cleaning robot having a structure for supplying water to the mop by driving a pump through the rotational movement of the mop unit.
進一步,本發明旨在提供一種清掃機器人,其具有藉由使用現有構造來儲水的構造。 Further, the present invention aims to provide a cleaning robot having a structure for storing water by using an existing structure.
而且,本發明旨在提供一種清掃機器人,其可以僅在清掃機器人行進時進行拖地,以防止行進表面無故變髒。 Moreover, the present invention aims to provide a cleaning robot that can mop the floor only when the cleaning robot is traveling, so as to prevent the traveling surface from becoming dirty for no reason.
作為解決上述實施例的例子,本發明提供一種具有吸嘴的清掃機器人,其在沒有設置馬達的情況下,藉由以旋轉運動驅動幫浦來自動供水給拖把。 As an example of solving the above-mentioned embodiments, the present invention provides a cleaning robot with a suction nozzle, which automatically supplies water to the mop by driving a pump in a rotary motion without a motor.
另外,本發明提供一種清掃機器人,其中拖把滾筒能在旋轉時操作齒輪幫浦或隔膜幫浦,從而將滾筒中的水供應至外部。 In addition, the present invention provides a cleaning robot in which a mop drum can operate a gear pump or a diaphragm pump while rotating, thereby supplying water in the drum to the outside.
而且,本發明提供一種清掃機器人,其中藉由僅在拖把滾筒旋轉時自動供水,拖把滾筒在清掃時總是維持在有水的狀態。 Moreover, the present invention provides a cleaning robot, in which the mop drum is always maintained in a state of water during cleaning by automatically supplying water only when the mop drum rotates.
根據本發明的實施例,不用馬達也可以供水,因而可以有效地使用清掃所需的能源。 According to the embodiment of the present invention, water can be supplied without using a motor, so that the energy required for cleaning can be effectively used.
另外,由於水只在清掃時供應,所以行進表面不會無故變髒。 In addition, since water is only supplied during cleaning, the traveling surface will not become dirty without cause.
而且,當調整拖把單元的旋轉速度時,也會基於拖把單元的旋轉速度的調整來調節供水量,因而可以有效地清掃。 Moreover, when the rotation speed of the mop unit is adjusted, the water supply amount is also adjusted based on the adjustment of the rotation speed of the mop unit, so that it can be cleaned effectively.
進一步地,因為清掃時拖把不會乾掉,清掃性能相當優秀。 Furthermore, because the mop will not dry out during cleaning, the cleaning performance is quite excellent.
更進一步地,由於旋轉滾筒內部就有水箱,所以不需要在清掃機器人中單獨設置水箱的空間。 Furthermore, since there is a water tank inside the rotating drum, there is no need to separately provide a space for the water tank in the cleaning robot.
又,當調整旋轉速度時,供水量也會隨之調整。 Also, when the rotation speed is adjusted, the water supply amount will be adjusted accordingly.

具體而言,在行進過程中外力可能施加於清掃機器人100或未預期的衝擊會發生在清掃機器人100上。因此,第一清掃模組殼體41藉由第二清掃模組殼體41b穩固地連接至主體10,因而可以防止第一清掃模組殼體41a脫離原來位置的情況。
Specifically, an external force may be applied to the
在圖式中,顯示第二清掃模組殼體41b設置在第一殼體101的下側,即面對待清掃表面的表面,但亦不受此限。
In the figure, it is shown that the second cleaning module housing 41b is disposed on the lower side of the
亦即,在清掃模組殼體41與主體10之間的連接關係並無限制。
That is, the connection relationship between the
清掃機器人100可以包括驅動器30。
The cleaning
驅動器30可以設置以移動主體10。
The
驅動器30可以包含主輪31和驅動馬達32。
The
主輪31可以藉由透過驅動馬達32接收電力來設置以旋轉。每個主輪31可以設置在主體10兩側的每一側上。
The
設置在一側的主輪31和設置在另一側的主輪31可以由不同的驅動馬達32分別控制。亦即,設置在一側的主輪31和設置在另一側的主輪31可以以不同的旋轉速度驅動。
The
因此,清掃機器人100可以左轉或右轉。而且,清掃機器人100可以結合直走或後退來切換方向。
Therefore, the cleaning
亦即,清掃機器人100的行進速度可以基於主輪31的旋轉速度來決定,而行進方向可以由主輪31的旋轉速度差異來決定。
That is, the traveling speed of the
舉例來說,當左側上的主輪31維持靜止,而右側上的主輪31旋轉時,清掃機器人100可以左轉。當兩側的主輪31都在旋轉,但右側上的主輪31比左側上的主輪31旋轉更快時,清掃機器人100可能轉向左邊並繼續直走。
For example, when the
驅動器30可以包含輔助輪33和34。第一輔助輪33可以設置在清掃機器人100的中心或中心旁。第一輔助輪33位於清掃機器人100的中心旁,從而支撐位於清掃機器人100中心的清掃機器人100的負載,並同時協助行進。因此,可以最小化清掃機器人100行進過程中的晃動。
The
第一輔助輪33可以設置以隨著清掃機器人100的行進方向切換而旋轉。
The first
因此,即使清掃機器人100在清掃待清掃表面時切換方向,也可以穩定地引導行進。
Therefore, even if the
亦即,第一輔助輪33可以協助主輪31的旋轉,同時支撐清掃機器人100。
That is, the first
第二輔助輪34可以設置在清掃模組殼體41中。清掃模組殼體41耦接至主體10以進行清掃。清掃模組殼體41可以由主體10支撐,同時耦接至主體10。在另一實施例中,清掃模組殼體41與行進表面(或待清掃表面)接觸的一部分可以透過行進表面接收支撐力。
The second
然而,由於清掃表面100進行清掃時,主要都在待清掃區域中移動,所以在行進過程中,清掃模組殼體41可能不會順暢地移動。
However, since the
當設置第二輔助輪34時,清掃模組殼體41在清掃機器人100行進
時可以更順暢地移動。
When the second
每個第二輔助輪34可以設置在清掃模組殼體41兩側的每一側,以執行協助平衡清掃機器人100的功能。
Each second
集塵器20可以是收集灰塵的部分。集塵器20可以包含旋風器(圖未顯示)。集塵器20可以與清掃模組40連通。
The
空氣可以透過集塵器20吸入清掃機器人100中。當空氣被集塵器20吸入並將已除去灰塵的空氣排出至外部時,在清掃機器人100中產生負壓,因此含有灰塵的空氣可以通過清掃模組殼體41引入。
Air can be sucked into the cleaning
集塵器20可以形成為主要先將較大的灰塵分離,然後再分離較小的灰塵的形式。然而集塵器20不受此限,且只要能夠吸入存在於行進表面上的灰塵即可。
The
集塵器20可以設置為可從主體10拆卸。因此,當清掃機器人100完成清掃時,或是當集塵器20中累積過多灰塵時,使用者可以輕易地將集塵器20分離以清除灰塵,從而確保方便性。
The
感測單元11可以設置在主體10上。感測單元11可以提供影像資訊,使得清掃機器人100可以在待清掃區域中行進。
The
亦即,感測單元11可以是攝影機或攝影感測器。
That is, the
具體而言,感測單元11可以收集用於清掃機器人100自主行進所需的必要資訊。
Specifically, the
舉例來說,感測單元11可以包含:攝影感測器,其藉由攝影清掃機器人100的周圍來建立行進地圖;障礙物感測器,其感測障礙物;及其他。在另一示例中,除了上述感測器,還可以設置其他感測器。
For example, the
舉例來說,感測單元可以包含牆壁感測器(圖未顯示)。因此,關於待清掃區域的資訊可以透過牆壁感測器、攝影感測器等輸入至清掃機器人100。清掃機器人100在行進中可以輸入空間的形狀,並透過牆壁感測器將待清掃區域分為複數個清掃區域。
For example, the sensing unit may include a wall sensor (not shown in the figure). Therefore, information about the area to be cleaned can be input to the
然而,本發明不受上述示例的限制,且上述示例不是唯一的實施例。攝影感測器和障礙物感測器可以同時進行牆壁感測。 However, the present invention is not limited by the above examples, and the above examples are not the only embodiments. The photographic sensor and the obstacle sensor can simultaneously perform wall sensing.
攝影感測器不僅可以設置以感測待清掃區域,還可以指定主體10在先前輸入的待清掃區域中的位置。因此,可以指定清掃機器人100進行清掃
的空間的位置,並可以指定清掃機器人100的位置,因而可以引導前往下一個清掃區域的移動。
The photographic sensor can not only be set to sense the area to be cleaned, but also can specify the position of the
感測單元11的類型和數量不受限制。亦即,可以佈置複數個攝影感測器,且當佈置複數個攝影感測器時,複數個攝影感測器可以是相同類型或不同類型的攝影感測器。
The type and number of
清掃機器人100可以基於地板材質調整集塵器20的吸力強度。這是因為當集塵器20總是以相同強度吸入灰塵時,可能難以在地毯等較不一般的地板上徹底進行清掃。
The cleaning
清掃機器人100可以包含地板感測器(圖未顯示),以感測地板材質。地板感測器可以是感測地板材質的感測器。地板感測器可以設置在上述的感測單元11中,或可以設置在感測單元11以外的位置。
The cleaning
使用清掃機器人100的待清掃區域可以根據情況而有所不同。舉例來說,待清掃區域的地板材質可以是大理石或地貼。而且,待清掃區域可以由上述示例以外的材質所製成。
The area to be cleaned using the
根據地板材質,驅動集塵器20以有效吸入灰塵的強度可能有所不同。
Depending on the floor material, the strength of driving the
具體而言,在地毯材質的地板上驅動集塵器20必須比在普通地板更用力,以有效地進行清掃。清掃機器人100的控制器可以基於地板材質的類型,調整集塵器20的驅動強度。
Specifically, it is necessary to drive the
障礙物感測器可以判定在待清掃區域中是否存在障礙物。障礙物感測器可以與上述感測單元11設置為一體,或可以分別設置。亦即,攝影感測器亦可以用為障礙物感測器。
The obstacle sensor can determine whether there is an obstacle in the area to be cleaned. The obstacle sensor may be integrated with the above-mentioned
當障礙物感測器感測到障礙物時,可以變更清掃機器人100的行進路徑。隨著移動路線變得複雜,電池耗電量也會有所變化。具體而言,當存在障礙物時,清掃機器人100會移動以繞過障礙物。這種時候,可以延長移動路線。隨著移動路線延長,用於清掃對應區域的電池耗電量可能會增加。
When the obstacle sensor detects an obstacle, the travel path of the
圖4係顯示根據一實施例的拖把單元的耦接構造的圖式。 FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the coupling structure of the mop unit according to an embodiment.
拖把單元50可以容納在清掃模組殼體41中。具體而言,拖把單元收納部42可以容納在清掃模組殼體41中,且拖把單元50可以容納在拖把單元收納部42中。
The
拖把單元50可以安置在拖把單元收納部42上。拖把單元收納部42可以形成為清掃模組殼體41的一部分,或安裝在清掃模組殼體41內部。
The
拖把單元收納部42可以包含拖把單元收納部殼體420,其決定拖把單元收納部42的外部。拖把單元收納部殼體420可以於其中設置收納空間421,以將拖把單元50容納於其中。
The mop
拖把單元收納部42可以包含拖把感測部422,其判定拖把52是否圍繞著本體51。當拖把感測部422判定是否安裝拖把52時,可以判定是否朝拖把52供水。
The mop
防爬升部423可以設置在拖把單元收納部42上。防爬升部423可朝清掃模組殼體41的前方延伸。設置防爬升部423以防止移動至台階式地形。
The
防爬升部423可以在拖把單元收納部42與行進表面彼此接觸的部分朝清掃機器人100的前方延伸。
The
換句話說,防爬升部423可從拖把單元收納部42面向行進表面的表面,朝清掃機器人100的行進方向延伸。
In other words, the
防爬升部423可以朝清掃模組殼體41向外突出。具體而言,防爬升部423可以朝清掃模組殼體41的前方突出。更具體而言,防爬升部423可以朝行進表面旁的清掃模組殼體41的一部分向前突出。
The
防爬升部423防止清掃機器人100在行進中進入與行進表面不同高度的區域,例如地毯等。
The
一般而言,除了家中、公司等地的特殊情況外,清掃機器人通常用於行進表面的高度恆定的空間。即使清掃機器人用於行進表面高度的恆定的空間,也可能因使用者的偏好,而有鋪設地毯或設置門檻的情況。 Generally speaking, except for special situations in homes, companies, etc., cleaning robots are usually used in spaces with a constant height of the traveling surface. Even if the cleaning robot is used in a space with a constant height of the traveling surface, it may be possible to lay carpets or set thresholds due to the user's preference.
由於根據本實施例的清掃機器人100能行進並同時拖地,所以不建議清掃機器人100在地毯等材質的上表面行進時,同時操作拖把52。
Since the
複數個防爬升部423可以佈置在拖把單元收納部42上。因此,可以防止清掃機器人100在直線移動的過程中遇到不同高度的行進表面時、以及清掃機器人100朝特定方向移動的過程中遇到不同高度的行進表面時爬升。因此,拖把52的操作不會被行進表面干擾。幫浦60可以耦接至拖把單元50。幫浦60可以包含防旋轉構件62,其不管本體51的旋轉,防止了幫浦60旋轉。
A plurality of
根據本實施例的清掃機器人100可以透過幫浦60將水引導至拖
把52,而不用諸如馬達等其他單獨組件。當清掃機器人100行進時,無法避免本體51旋轉。因此,當幫浦60固定時,可以引導水至拖把52,以回應本體51的旋轉。
The cleaning
因此,可以防止清掃機器人100變得過大,且只在清掃機器人100行進時進行拖地,而不會另外耗電。
Therefore, it is possible to prevent the
如下將描述幫浦60的詳細說明。
The detailed description of the
拖把單元50可以包含本體51和拖把52。
The
拖把單元50容納於清掃模組殼體41中,以清掃清掃機器人100行進的行進表面。
The
具體而言,拖把單元50可以在行進表面拖地時去除除由集塵器20吸入清掃機器人100的灰塵以外的灰塵和異物。
Specifically, the
亦即,當拖把52移除時,拖把單元50可以藉由掃除行進表面的灰塵,起到讓灰塵進入集塵器20的作用。而且,當安裝拖把52時,拖把單元50可以藉由與拖把52一起拖地來清除灰塵和異物。
That is, when the
存在於行進表面上的灰塵可能無法透過集塵器20的吸力完全移除。因此,拖把單元50設置以移除殘留在行進表面上的灰塵。
The dust present on the traveling surface may not be completely removed by the suction force of the
拖把單元50可以容納在由清掃模組殼體41提供的空間中,並可以與清掃模組殼體41組合在一起。因此,可以防止拖把單元50在拖地時從原來位置移開。
The
拖把單元50可以包含本體51,設置在清掃模組殼體41中。具體而言,本體51可以耦接至清掃模組殼體41,以支撐拖把單元50。
The
本體51可以形成為環形。本體51可以在清掃機器人100行進時自然地旋轉,並掃除行進表面上的灰塵,以藉由在行進表面上拖地來協助集塵器20收集灰塵或進行清掃。
The
本體51可以是中空的。如下文所述,目的在於在主體51中設置水箱53,並將水容納在水箱53中或將水容納在本體51中。
The
本體51可以是判定拖把單元50外部的部分。由於拖把52設置以圍繞本體51,所以拖把52可以基於本體51的形狀組合至本體51。
The
拖把52可以由能含水的材質製成。其目的在於藉由下文提及的供水通道54收水,來最大化清掃的作用。
The
拖把52可以設置為可從本體51拆卸。使用者當使用清掃機器人時,可能想拖地或可能不想拖地。因此,較佳的是拖把52能基於使用者的選擇從清掃機器人100拆卸下來。
The
而且,當拖把52與清掃機器人100一體成形時,清掃後仍要繼續使用弄髒的拖把52。而且,即使拖把52清乾淨了,由於清掃機器人100的構造,清掃可能仍有難度。因此,拖把52較佳為可拆卸的。
Moreover, when the
拖把52圍繞本體51的方式並沒有限制。
The way the
舉例來說,拖把52的兩端可以重複地彼此附接或拆卸,或者將拖把52安裝在本體51上的元件可以另外設置。
For example, the two ends of the
圖5係顯示設置在清掃機器人的拖把單元中的幫浦形成為齒輪幫浦的圖式。 Fig. 5 shows a diagram in which the pump provided in the mop unit of the cleaning robot is formed as a gear pump.
幫浦60可以耦接至拖把單元50。幫浦60可以包含幫浦殼體61,其形成幫浦60的外部並耦接至本體51。
The
蓋子的形狀和數量不受限於圖式所示的蓋子的形狀和數量。 The shape and number of the covers are not limited to the shape and number of the covers shown in the drawings.
供水件63可以設置在幫浦殼體61中。供水件63可以不用電力操作,如單獨的馬達,但可以設置以將水朝拖把52引導,以回應拖把單元50的旋轉。
The
根據其中幫浦60形成為齒輪幫浦的一實施例,與本體51連通的連通孔633或水箱53可以界定在幫浦殼體61中。亦即,連通孔633可以界定以讓水流入幫浦60中。
According to an embodiment in which the
連通孔633可以界定在幫浦殼體61中,其比拖把單元50的旋轉中心更靠近圓周。這是因為隨著本體51旋轉,容納在本體51或水箱53中的水會因為離心力而位於本體51的內表面。
The
具體而言,當容納的水量夠多時,連通孔633的位置不是問題。然而,當水量隨著清掃減少到某程度,或者開始時只注入少量的水時,容納在水箱53或本體51中的水會因重力而偏向行進表面。
Specifically, when the amount of water contained is large enough, the position of the
然而,即使容納在本體51或水箱53中的水量很少,水也會隨著本體51旋轉而偏向本體51的內表面或水箱53,因此較佳的是連通孔633界定相鄰於本體51的內表面。
However, even if the amount of water contained in the
供水件63可以包含第一齒輪631和第二齒輪632。
The
第一齒輪631是隨著本體51旋轉而旋轉的齒輪。第一齒輪631可繞著本體51的旋轉中心旋轉。
The
第二齒輪632可以與第一齒輪631嚙合,並引導水朝拖把進入連通孔633。
The
可以設置第二齒輪632,使得其至少一部分的輪齒與連通孔633重疊。因此,進入連通孔633的水可以透過幫浦60引導至拖把52。
The
幫浦殼體61可以包含引導構件634,用於協助水流動。
The
當水通過連通孔633流入幫浦殼體61時,水由供水件63引導。然而,為了穩定地將水引導至下文所述的供水通道54,較為有利的是具有朝幫浦殼體61內部突出的引導構件634。
When water flows into the
亦即,引導構件634可以將進入連通孔633的水引導至供水通道54,從而順暢地供水。
That is, the
供水通道54可以包含第一供水通道541和第二供水通道542。
The
第一供水通道541是與幫浦殼體61連通的通道,且第一齒輪631和第二齒輪632所引導的水均通過該通道從幫浦殼體61排出。
The first
第一供水通道541可以與幫浦殼體61連通。
The first
第二供水通道542可以是與第一供水通道541連通和與拖把52連通的部分。
The second
具體而言,第二供水通道542可以朝本體51的縱向方向分支,以將第一供水通道541排出的水引導至拖把52。
Specifically, the second
分支通道的數量可以有所不同。亦即,圖式所示的第二供水通道542有兩條,但第二供水通道的數量不受此限。
The number of branch channels can vary. That is, there are two second
較佳的是第二供水通道542分支至本體51的兩側,以與拖把52連通。因為本體51較佳形成為圓柱形,為了將水平均地引導到拖把52上,較為有利的是分支通道的數量多一點且通道能平均地分支。
Preferably, the second
圖6(a)至圖6(d)係顯示拖把單元的各種實施例的圖式,其中幫浦形成為齒輪幫浦。 6(a) to 6(d) are diagrams showing various embodiments of the mop unit, in which the pump is formed as a gear pump.
具體而言,圖6(a)係顯示水容納在本體51中的形狀的圖式;圖6(b)係顯示水箱53容納在本體51中的形狀的圖式。而且,圖6(c)係顯示進水口55界定在本體51中的形狀的圖式;以及圖6(d)係顯示進水口55和水箱53
分別界定並設置在本體51中的形狀的圖式。
Specifically, FIG. 6(a) is a diagram showing the shape of water contained in the
在圖6(a)至圖6(d)中,為了便於清楚理解,以敞開的形狀顯示本體。 In FIGS. 6(a) to 6(d), in order to facilitate clear understanding, the main body is shown in an open shape.
參照圖6(a),幫浦60形成為齒輪幫浦,並顯示水容納在本體51中的形狀。幫浦60可以設置在本體51的一側上,而蓋56可以設置在本體51的另一側上。
6(a), the
蓋56可以形成為旋轉蓋。因此,本體51可以藉由旋轉蓋56來開啟或關閉。
The
而且,當蓋56形成為旋轉蓋時,緊固力會隨著蓋56的旋轉次數增加而變強,且因而阻隔性能可以變好。
Also, when the
而且,由於設置了蓋56,便於簡單地將水供應至本體51,或將所供的水維持在容納於本體51中的狀態。
Moreover, since the
參照圖6(b),幫浦60形成為齒輪幫浦,並顯示水箱53單獨地形成在本體51中的情況。
6(b), the
下文將省略與圖6(a)重疊的部分的描述。然而,清楚的是並沒有排除圖6(a)所述的部分。 The description of the part overlapping with FIG. 6(a) will be omitted below. However, it is clear that the part described in Figure 6(a) is not excluded.
參照圖6(b),水箱53可以與本體51分別形成。
6(b), the
當水箱53與本體51分開形成時,水箱53的尺寸可能比本體51的尺寸還小。然而,由於水不會直接容納在本體51中,所以水箱53的形狀可能改變,從而幫浦60的構造可以最佳地設計。
When the
在另一示例中,即使設置了水箱53,仍可以設置蓋56。
In another example, even if the
參照圖6(c),其顯示幫浦60形成為齒輪幫浦,且進水口55界定在本體51中,而非蓋56設置在另一側上。
6(c), it shows that the
當進水口55界定於本體51中時,即使拖把單元50沒有從清掃模組殼體41移除,仍可以輕易地將水注入本體51中。由於拖把單元50耦接至清掃模組殼體41或拖把單元收納部42,所以當拖把單元50形成為使得水通過其端部注入時,必須將拖把單元50從清掃機器人100移除,以將水供應至拖把單元50。
When the
然而,當進水口55界定在本體51中時,不用將拖把單元50從清掃機器人100移除也可以供應水。
However, when the
參照圖6(d),即使界定了進水口55,也可以包含水箱53。在
這種情況下,可以界定進水口55以與水箱53連通。
6(d), even if the
圖7係顯示設置在根據本實施例的清掃機器人的拖把單元中的幫浦設置有隔膜幫浦的圖式。 FIG. 7 is a diagram showing the pump provided in the mop unit of the cleaning robot according to the present embodiment is provided with a diaphragm pump.
下文將描述不同於圖5所示部分的部分。與圖5所示部分相同的部分的描述將予以省略。 Hereinafter, the parts different from those shown in FIG. 5 will be described. The description of the same parts as those shown in FIG. 5 will be omitted.
隔膜幫浦是膜幫浦,其可以隨著本體51旋轉而操作。供水件63可以形成為隔膜幫浦。因此,水可以隨著本體51旋轉而引導至拖把52。
The diaphragm pump is a membrane pump, which can be operated as the
當本體51旋轉而幫浦60沒有旋轉時,可以操作供水件63。
When the
具體而言,隨著本體51旋轉,隔膜幫浦的隔膜會收縮和舒張。由於收縮和舒張會重複,容納在本體51中的水可以流入幫浦60中,然後可以引導至拖把52。
Specifically, as the
當幫浦60形成為隔膜幫浦時,幫浦60可以包含進水管64和出水管65。
When the
進水管64可以是水從水箱53或本體51引導至供水件63的部分。在這種情況下,隨著本體51旋轉,供水件63內部產生負壓且水被吸出。而且,隨著本體51旋轉,壓力會施加於供水件63,因此水可以排出至拖把52。
The
進水管64可以設置在本體51的內表面旁。亦即,進水管64可以位於比本體51的旋轉中心更靠近內圓周表面的位置。
The
進水管64設置在內表面旁,因為水會隨著本體51旋轉而因離心力而偏向內表面,所以即使容納有少量的水,水也可以順暢地供應至拖把52。
The
當進水管64與供水件63連通,且在設置水箱53時與水箱53連通,而且水容納在本體51中時,進水管64與本體51連通。
When the
出水管65可以與供水件63和拖把52連通。出水管65可以將從供水件63排出的水引導至拖把52。在圖式中,顯示出水管65分支為兩條管子,但出水管不受此限。
The
為了將水平均地供應至拖把52,較佳的是出水管65分支為數條管子。然而,考量到流體阻力,出水管65可以設置以分支為合適的數量。

在圖8(a)至圖8(d)中,為了便於清楚理解,以敞開的形狀顯示本體。 In FIGS. 8(a) to 8(d), in order to facilitate clear understanding, the main body is shown in an open shape.
參照圖8(a),幫浦60形成為隔膜幫浦,並顯示水容納在本體51中的形狀。幫浦60可以設置在本體51的一側上,而蓋56可以設置在本體51的另一側上。
Referring to FIG. 8( a ), the
蓋56可以形成為旋轉蓋。因此,本體51可以藉由旋轉蓋56來開啟或關閉。
The
而且,當蓋56形成為旋轉蓋時,緊固力會隨著蓋56的旋轉次數增加而變強,且阻隔性能可以變好。
Moreover, when the
而且,由於設置了蓋56,便於簡單地將水供應至本體51,或將所供的水維持在容納於本體51中的狀態。
Moreover, since the
參照圖8(b),幫浦60形成為齒輪幫浦,並顯示水箱53單獨地形成在本體51中的情況。
Referring to FIG. 8( b ), the
下文將省略與圖8(a)重疊的部分的說明。然而,清楚的是並不排除圖8(a)所述的部分。 The description of the part overlapping with FIG. 8(a) will be omitted below. However, it is clear that the part described in FIG. 8(a) is not excluded.
參照圖8(b),水箱53可以與本體51分別形成。
Referring to FIG. 8( b ), the
當水箱53與本體51分開形成時,水箱53的尺寸可能比本體51的尺寸還小。然而,由於水不會直接容納在本體51中,水箱53的形狀可能改變,因此幫浦60的構造可以最佳地設計。
When the
在另一示例中,即使設置了水箱53,仍可以設置蓋56。
In another example, even if the
