参见附图1-12对根据本发明一实施例的清洁系统进行示例性说明。
清洁系统包括基站和清洁设备200,基站和清洁设备200配套使用。清洁设备200可以是诸如扫地机器人、拖地机器人之类的能够在工作表面(例如地面等)行进并对工作 表面进行清洁的设备。
参见附图1-7,基站包括基站主体100、升降机构和充电模组(图中未示出)。
基站主体100还可以包括至少一个容置空间,该容置空间可以用于放置清洁设备的清洁模组和/或清洁设备,其中,当具有多个容置空间时,容置空间可以在上下方向上处于不同的高度,或者在水平方向处于不同的区域。示例性地,基站主体100包括底板110和侧壁,侧壁沿底板110周向部分环绕底板110,使得一侧开放,其它侧被侧壁封闭,从而形成一个部分开放的容置空间,开放的一侧为基站的主体的入口,清洁设备200可以自该入口进入基站主体100的容置空间中。基站主体100还可以包括位于侧壁上方的顶板。基站主体100在上下方向上具有处于不同高度的两层容置空间,每层容置空间的大小均大于清洁设备200的体积,从而每层容置空间都可以用于容纳清洁设备200。相邻两层的容置空间之间设有支撑平台113,支撑平台113与基站主体100连接,可以为固定连接于侧壁的隔板,该支撑平台113用于接收并支撑所述升降机构上的清洁设备200或清洁设备200的清洁模组230。
升降机构设置于所述基站主体100,其被构造用于将位于基站主体100内的清洁设备200在不同高度的两层容置空间之间进行切换。具体而言,升降机构包括升降板120以及与升降板120连接的升降组件,升降板120位于基站主体100的容置空间中,包括相对的第一端和第二端,升降板120的第一端位于容置空间内部,升降板120的第二端邻近基站主体100的入口。升降板120用于支撑进入基站主体100内的清洁设备200。升降组件连接所述升降板120,用于抬升或降低升降板120,使支撑在升降板120上的清洁设备200可以从下层的容置空间移动至上层的容置空间,或可以从上层的容置空间移动至下层的容置空间。
升降机构还包括弹性部件150,升降板120的第一端通过弹性部件150连接基站主体100。升降板120可旋转地连接升降组件,且升降板120与升降组件的连接位置位于第一端与第二端之间,升降组件可以自连接位置处抬升或降低升降板120,且升降板120在抬升或降低的过程中可以以连接位置处为转轴发生转动。升降板120的第二端的高度配置为随着所述清洁设备200的重心向所述升降板120的所述第一端的移动而升高。具体地,在本实施例中,升降板120的第一端的两侧边缘分别设置有一个自升降板120向远离升降板120方向延伸的伸出部121,伸出部121近似呈L形,伸出部121之间的距离大于清洁设备200的宽度。弹性部件150可以为弹簧,弹簧两端具有钩部,弹簧可以通过其第一端的钩部与基站主体100底板110上设置的挂钩连接,通过其第二端的钩部与伸出部121远离升降板120一端的连接孔连接,从而,弹簧在升降板120抬升或降低的过程中可以伸缩,且能够相对于基站主体100和升降板120转动。从而,当清洁设备200位于升降板120上时且需要进入上层的容置空间时,升降组件自其与升降板120连接位置处向上抬升升降板120,当清洁设备200的重心位于连接位置(升降板120与升降组件的连接位置)与升降板120的第二端之间时,可以通过弹性部件150的拉力形成一个力矩保持升降板120的平衡。当升降板120上的清洁设备200位于上层的容置空间且逐步移动至支撑平台113上时, 清洁设备200的重心位于连接位置与支撑平台113之间,清洁设备200可以同时支撑在升降板120和支撑平台113上,弹性部件150的拉力带动升降板120转动,使升降板120的第二端升高。通过弹性部件150的拉力和升降板120的转动,可以使升降板120的第二端的高度能够随着所述清洁设备200的重心向升降板120的第一端的移动而升高。从而可以使清洁设备200完全位于上层的容置空间时,升降板120的第二端相对于基站主体100的底板110的高度大于清洁设备200的高度,且升降板120水平或近似水平,从而位于升降板120下方的容置空间内此时可以再容纳一台清洁设备200,即基站主体100的上下层的容置空间可以同时容纳两台清洁设备。
在本实施例中,升降组件包括第一升降组件和第二升降组件,第一升降组件与第二升降组件分别设于升降板120的两侧,自升降板120的两侧对升降板120进行抬升,使升降板120可以在上下方向上发生位置改变,从而带动支撑在升降板120上的清洁设备200在不同高度的两层容置空间之间进行切换。
第一升降组件包括电机130、丝杆132和第一升降滑座133,电机130可以固定或可拆卸地设置在基站主体100的左侧壁111外侧,电机130的输出轴传动连接丝杆132,丝杆132可转动地设置在基站主体100的左侧壁111外侧,其与基站主体100通过轴承131连接。具体地,基站主体100的左侧壁111外侧沿上下方向固定设置有同轴的套筒部,丝杆132两端通过轴承131与套筒部可转动地连接。电机130用于带动丝杆132绕其中心轴线转动,第一升降滑座133套设在丝杆132上且构造为能够沿所述丝杆132的轴向上下滑动,第一升降滑座133可以为滚珠螺母,第一升降滑座133与丝杆132可以形成滚珠丝杠副,从而,在丝杆132转动时,套设在丝杆132上的第一升降滑座133会随着丝杆132的转动在丝杆132的轴向上滑动。第一升降组件还包括第一连接部134及第一转动轴135,第一连接部134的一端铰接连接第一升降滑座133,第一连接部134的另一端通过第一转动轴135连接升降板120,第一转动轴135可以与第一连接部134可转动地连接,与升降板120固定连接(或者第一转动轴135可以与升降板120可转动地连接,与第一连接部134固定连接)。基站主体100的左侧壁111上设置有贯穿侧壁的第一滑动槽136,第一转动轴135穿设于所述第一滑动槽136内,并配置为能够沿第一滑动槽136滑动。第一滑动槽136用于对第一转动轴135进行导向,使其仅能沿第一滑动槽136的延伸方向运动。
第二升降组件包括升降导向轴142和第二升降滑座143,升降导向轴142可以为光轴,可转动地设置在基站主体100的右侧壁112外侧,升降导向轴142的两端与基站主体100通过轴承141连接,可以绕自身中心轴线转动。在其它一些实施例中,升降导向轴142也可以固定设置在基站主体100的右侧壁112外侧,不可转动。第二升降滑座143套设在升降导向轴142上且构造为能够沿升降导向轴142的轴向滑动,第二升降滑座143可以为光轴滑块。第二升降组件还包括第二连接部144及第二转动轴145,第二连接部144的一端铰接连接第二升降滑座143,第二连接部144的另一端通过第二转动轴145连接升降板120,第二转动轴145可以与第二连接部144可转动地连接,与升降板120固定连接(或者第二转动轴145可以与升降板120可转动地连接,与第二连接部144固定连接),基站 主体100的右侧壁112上设置有贯穿侧壁的第二滑动槽136,第二转动轴145穿设于第二滑动槽136内,并配置为能够沿第二滑动槽136滑动。第二滑动槽136用于对第二转动轴145进行导向,使其仅能沿第二滑动槽136的延伸方向运动。
通过上述第一升降组件和第二升降组件,可以抬升升降板120,使升降板上120上至少部分位于基站主体100下层的容置空间中清洁设备200移动至基站主体100上层的容置空间,之后,升降板120与底板110之间的下层容置空间还可再容纳一台清洁设备200,也即,基站可以同时容纳两台清洁设备200。参照附图8-10对基站容纳两台清洁设备200的具体过程进行示例性说明。参见附图8,当升降板120处于附图2-4所示的未抬升状态时,升降板120的第二端近似与地面或基站主体100的底板110平齐,清洁设备200可以自升降板120的第二端行进至升降板120上,此时清洁设备200至少部分地位于基站主体100下层的容置空间中,之后,电机130带动丝杆132转动,通过丝杆132传动使第一升降滑座133向上移动,第一升降滑座133通过第一连接部134带动第一转动轴135沿第一滑动槽136向上移动,从而抬升升降板120,升降板120带动第二转动轴145沿第二滑动槽146向上移动,第二转动轴145通过第二连接部144带动第二升降滑座143在上升降导向轴142上向上移动。通过位于升降板120左右的第一升降组件和第二升降组件的共同作用,保证了整个升降机构可以上下平稳移动,减少偏转力矩,避免损坏机构。同时,升降组件采用丝杆传动,因为丝杆传动本身具有自锁性,当电机130不动作时,整个结构可以保持状态平衡,同时受力不会传到电机130上,保证了电机130的可靠性和寿命。参见附图9,当升降板120抬升至附图5-7所示的抬升状态时,清洁设备200向前运动至支撑平台113上,清洁设备200通过升降板120和支撑平台113的支撑而处于上层的容置空间,清洁设备200的前后运动形成的重心变化与弹簧拉力形成的平衡力矩,使清洁设备200移动至支撑平台113上时,升降板120处于水平或近似水平的状态,升降板120的第二端相对于基站主体100的底板110的高度大于清洁设备200的高度,升降板120与基站主体100的底板110之间的下层容置空间可以用于容纳另一台清洁设备200,参见附图10,另一台清洁设备200行进至基站主体100的底板110上,位于基站主体100下层的容置空间中,基站同时容纳两台清洁设备200。
本实施例的基站主体100仅具有两层容置空间。在其他一些实施例中,基站主体100可以具有处于不同高度的三层或更多层的容置空间,只需要对升降机构进行相应配置,使其可以将基站主体100内的清洁设备200在不同高度的容置空间之间进行切换即可。例如通过控制升降板120抬升的高度和转动的角度,可以使其能够将其上的清洁设备200在不同高度的容置空间之间进行切换。
基站还包括充电模组,充电模组设置于基站主体100上,用于对进入基站的清洁设备200进行充电。具体而言,充电模组包括至少一个输出端子,该输出端子可以设置于基站主体100的至少一层容置空间中。当清洁设备200进入相应层的容置空间中的预设位置时,清洁设备200上的输入端子与充电模组的输出端子形成电连接,充电模组对清洁设备200进行充电。充电模组可以接收外部电源来对清洁设备200进行充电,也可以通过充电 模组中的可充电电池来对清洁设备200进行充电。从而,基站可以用于同时对处于不同层容置空间的多个清洁设备200进行充电,一个基站可以配合多个清洁设备200使用,使多个清洁设备200能够更快速的完成充电并进行清洁工作,可以有效提升清洁效率,且无需为每个清洁设备200单独配置一个基站进行充电,有效降低了成本,减少了基站的占地空间。

通过快拆机构3的结构设计,在需要进行设备主体210和拖地模组232的连接时,通过第一连接件31和第二连接件32的配合,可以快速实现连接,使用更加方便,在扫地完成之后需要拖地时,也可以快速完成清扫模组231到拖地模组232之间的切换,提高工作效率。清扫模组231与拖地模组232不仅仅是刷头的简单更换,而是两套系统的更换, 在设备主体210上面只保留两套清洁系统的共用模块(例如风机、电池、驱动轮、传感器等),使得无论是在扫地过程还是在拖地过程,每次的清洁机器人都是带着最小系统进行工作,无任何多余负载导致降低效率,从而使得每次的清洁效率都能达到最优。同时在整体设备体积不增加的情况下,使给尘盒26以及水箱的空间尽可能的大,可以进一步提升清洁设备清洁覆盖的范围。
在一些实施例中,水箱包括彼此分隔设置的清水箱411和污水箱49,例如拖地模组232中的水箱和第二安装架4连接,在水箱内设有隔板,将水箱分为彼此分隔的清水箱411和污水箱49。其中,清水箱411用于提供拖地模组232拖擦工作表面时使用的清洁液体(如清水),污水箱49用于回收脏污液体,采用滚刷形式的拖地刷头,同时配合有清水箱以及污水箱,使得在拖地清洁的过程中,可以实时对于拖地刷头进行自清洁,保证遇到扩散性的脏污时,可以及时自清洁,保证脏污不进行进一步的扩散,防止造成二次污染已经清洁过的区域。
为了实现拖地过程中对拖地滚刷喷洒清水,在一些实施例中,拖地模组232还包括抽水装置和喷水口47,可选地,抽水装置可以包括水泵412,抽水装置可以安装在第二安装架4内。可选地,拖地模组还包括面向所述拖地刷头和/或工作表面设置的喷水口47,所述抽水装置连通所述清水箱411和所述喷水口47,所述清水箱411中的清洁液体通过所述抽水装置进入所述喷水口处,以通过所述喷水口47向所述拖地刷头和/或工作表面喷洒所述清洁液体,例如清水或者含有清洗液等的清洁液体,例如水泵412的抽水装置通过管道和清水箱411连通。可选地,例如水泵412的抽水装置还可以通过管道连接喷水口47,喷水口47可以开设在第二安装架4上,通过喷水口47将清水喷洒出去。喷水口47朝向拖地刷头41或者工作表面设置,清洁液体最后都会落到拖地刷头41和/或工作表面上,拖地刷头41在转动时会将带着清洁液体进行清洁,从而提高清洁效果。
在一些实施例中,拖地模组232还包括刮水板48和吸水口46,刮水板48可以安装在第二安装架4上朝向拖地刷头41的一侧,并且刮水板48和拖地刷头41相抵,在拖地刷头41转动时刮水板48会将拖地刷头41上的脏污液体刮下。其中,吸水口46和污水箱49连通,通过吸水口46使所述脏污液体进入所述污水箱49。
为了使得脏污液体更容易被收集污水箱49内,在一些实施例中,污水箱49还设置有第一吸风口410。设备主体210的风机212(参见图15)和第一吸风口410连通例如两者通过风道连通,在风机212工作时会通过第一吸风口410抽取空气,在负压的作用下吸水口46会吸取刮水板48上刮下的脏污液体例如污水并送入到污水箱49中,使得清洁时产生的脏污液体集中到污水箱49中,拖地模组和扫地模组可以共用一个风机212从而更加节省空间和成本。
为了便于向清水箱411内注入清洁液体,示例性地,清水箱411设置有清水进口44,清水进口44用于连接注水装置,以向清水箱411中提供清洁液体,注水装置可以包括管路和水泵等,注水装置还可以连接自来水管或者水龙头,从而在需要是可以自动或者手动向清水箱411注入清洁液体例如清水。
为了便于将污水箱49内的脏污液体排出,示例性地,在污水箱49设置有污水出口45,污水出口45用于将污水箱49中的脏污液体导出,例如污水出口45还可以连通下水道地漏,在使用时,可以通过密封盖封堵污水出口,而再排污时,打开密封盖,使脏污液体排出。
当设备主体210连接拖地模组232时,其一个示例性地工作过程如下:设备主体210在基站中更换了拖地模组232后,通过污水出口45将残余的污水吸走,保证污水箱49清空,同时通过清水进口44将清水箱411补给满可用清水。之后,清洁设备出发工作。清水箱411中的清水通过水泵412的作用进入到喷水口47处,喷到拖地刷头41上,拖地刷头41在第二刷头驱动电机42带动下旋转,喷水后湿润的拖地刷头41与地面旋转将地面的脏污带走。当拖地刷头41转动进一圈到刮水板48处,在刮水板48的作用下,将拖地刷头41上的脏污液体刮下,落到吸水口46处,风机212工作,在风机212及风道连接着第一吸风口的作用下,脏污液体被吸入到污水箱49,完成拖地的过程。
本申请的清扫模组231和拖地模组232分别通过快拆机构3和设备主体210进行连接,可以实现快速的连接或者分离。当进行扫地作业时,设备主体210不需要携带不参与工作的拖地模组232,在进行拖地作业时也不需要携带不参与工作的清扫模组231,设备主体210不需要携带额外的负载,减少了能源的浪费。拖地模组232在进行拖地时,可以在进行拖地作业的同时,通过清水盒和污水盒进行刷头的清洗和污水的收集,实现了在工作过程中刷头的自清洁,提升了工作效率和清洁效果。清扫和拖地的工作分开进行,每一项都可以做到最优。除此之外,还可以防止当扫地和拖地在一起工作中,没有清扫干净就进行拖地而导致的清洁恶化。
在另一个实施例中,为了便于清洁模组安装至设备主体,如图24和图25所示,设备主体上设置有用于容纳清洁模组的凹槽,凹槽的开口尺寸沿清洁模组的安装方向逐渐缩小,以便保证清洁模组和设备主体的组装精度。其中,改凹槽的尺寸和清洁模组的尺寸相匹配。可选地,凹槽可以设置于设备主体的底部,或者其他适合的位置,其中具有朝向工作表面的第一开口,以使得安装后的清洁模组朝向工作表面,示例性地,为了便于清洁模组的安装,凹槽位于清洁设备主体侧面的一侧还可设置第二开口。
为了保证装配准确度以及在锁定位置拉紧保证清洁模组不脱落,如图24和图25所示,设备主体上设置有定位构件61,清洁模组上设置有与定位构件61相匹配的配合部62,定位构件61用于当清洁模组安装至设备主体时使第一连接机构51和第二连接机构52对准,从而保证装配准确度。例如,定位构件61具有第一定位面和与第一定位面相对设置的第二定位面,第一定位面与第二定位面均相对于清洁模组的拆卸方向向清洁设备的外侧倾斜,也即第一定位面和第二定位面均为斜面,其中,清洁模组的拆卸方向与清洁设备的前进方向平行,如图24和图25所示,清洁模组的配合部62包括与第一配合面和第二配合面分别匹配的第一定位面和第二定位面,通过第一定位面和第二定位面还可以限制清洁模组在与清洁模组的拆卸方向垂直方向的移动,从而可以避免清洁模组自设备主体的脱落,并且由于第一定位面和第二定位面倾斜设置,从而使得第一定位面和第二定位面能够对清 洁模组提供向上的支撑力,也可以避免清洁模组自设备主体的脱落。
第一定位面和第二定位面作为凹槽的部分侧壁,其和设备主体底部的表面以及和清洁模组的拆卸方向垂直的表面围合成用于容纳清洁模组的凹槽。

为了实现第一连接机构51和第二连接机构52之间的锁紧和解锁,在一个具体示例中,锁定组件还包括限位件525,限位件525在第一位置和第二位置之间活动地设置于插槽的外侧,当插销插入插槽中时,限位件525处于第一位置并抵接锁紧件521,以向锁紧件521 施加朝向插销例如朝向插销上的卡槽的作用力,从而使锁紧件521压紧压紧插销,实现锁紧,以限制插销与插槽分离。
为了实现第一连接机构51和第二连接机构52的自动解锁,可选地,解锁组件和限位件525连接,用于使限位件525自第一位置移动至第二位置,以解锁锁紧件521从而使插销和插槽可分离,例如,当限位件525位于第一位置时,限位件525的侧面和设置锁紧件521的开孔之间的距离为第一距离,当限位件525位于第二位置时,限位件525的侧面和设置锁紧件521的开孔之间的距离为第二距离,其中,第二距离大于第一距离,从而当限位件525从第一位置切换至第二位置时,向与插入方向相反的方向移动的插销对锁紧件521施加朝向限位件525的作用力引起锁紧件521由锁紧位置切换至解锁位置,可以使得锁紧件521向插槽外侧移动部分距离,以使得插销能够自插槽内拔出,而到限位件525从第二位置切换至第一位置时,可以使得锁紧件521向插槽内移动部分距离,也即从解锁位置切换至锁紧位置,以压紧插销,实现锁紧。

2、回基站更换第一清洁模组的动作逻辑如下:首先,如图32所示,带有第二清洁模组的清洁设备回到基站,并置于升降机构上,通过升降机构抬升清洁设备,清洁设备靠自身动力,或者升降机构提供的动力向上爬升至第二层,并拆卸第二清洁模组,拆卸下来的第二清洁模组暂存于基站的第二层,之后,如图33所示,通过升降机构使清洁设备的设备主体后退避障,并将其降低放平,以使清洁设备能够进入基站的第一层,并在第一层进行第一清洁模组的安装,安装完成后,清洁设备退出基站,继续以第二清洁模组进行工作。
进一步,如图34至图36所示,设备主体210带着清洁模组例如清扫模组231或拖地模组回到基站后,首先来到一层的升降机构160的升降板120上,有关升降机构160的描述可以参考前文,升降板120连接在基站主体100的侧面固定的与升降板120连接的升降组件,通过升降组件带动升降板120上下移动,从而带动设备主体210上下活动。如图37所示,当设备主体210带着例如清扫模组231或拖地模组回到基站时,为了在基站中实现对清洁模组的拆卸和安装,在基站主体100的内部设置有拆卸机构170,拆卸机构170与基站主体连接,拆卸机构170用于从设备主体上拆卸清洁模组或者将清洁模组安装至设备主体。

在一个示例中,基站还包括充电模组,充电模组设于移动机构上,以用于对位于移动机构上的设备主体充电。基站工作过程中,设备主体始终在升降机构160上面相对位置可以保持不动,从而有利于在升降机构160上通过充电模组进行充电,使得设备主体在基站内部更换清洁模组时,能够零碎化充电,兼顾使用和充电两个功能。
以至少两个容置空间为上下分层设置的不同容置空间为例,参考图38和图39,当设备主体210携带清洁模组例如清扫模组231回到基站内部的底部时,其会回到升降机构160的升降板120上方,此时拆卸机构170朝向清洁设备所在的一侧自动移动,并移动到 清洁模组例如清扫模组231的下方,并自动拆卸下清洁模组例如清扫模组231,然后拆卸机构170带着清扫模组231自动向远离设备主体的一侧移动,从而回到基站主体内部的收纳位置。
进一步,如图40和图41所示,当拆卸完成清扫模组231之后,设备主体210被升降板120升起,通过升降组件的运动被升至2层的高度,如图41所示,此时2层的拆卸机构170带着另一清洁模组例如拖地模组232自动朝向设备主体210移动,将拖地模组232插入到设备主体210,实现另一清洁模组的安装。

在一个示例中,如图43和图44所示,在清洁模组例如清扫模组231或拖地模组232的底部可以设置有限位槽234,限位槽234的数量可以根据实际需要合理设定,例如可以是1个或者更多个,本申请附图中仅示出了限位槽234为两个的情况,清洁模组对应的拆卸机构170的机构主体172上设置有拆卸件,该拆卸件可以包括限位件171,限位件171可伸缩的设置于机构主体172上,当机构主体172移动到清洁模组例如清扫模组231的下方时,限位件171向上弹起出入到清洁模组底部对应的限位槽234内,从而可以实现对清洁模组的卡位固定拆卸。
下面,参考图45至图49,对本申请一种示例性地拆卸机构170进行描述,如图45所示,该拆卸机构170包括机构主体172,机构上设置有容纳槽177,拆卸件包括限位件171,限位件171可伸缩的设置于机构主体172上,限位件171穿设于容纳槽177中,限位件171配置为:能够伸展至容纳槽177外或者收缩于容纳槽177内,其中,限位件171还用于伸入清洁模组上的限位槽234内,限位件171可以包括一个或者多个竖直的凸起,例如,如图45所示,限位件171包括两个凸起,而两个凸起之间通过连接板连接,以实现两个凸起结构的同步伸缩。
继续参考图45,为了实现对限位件171伸缩的控制,示例性地,拆卸机构170还包括磁吸组件,磁吸组件用于使限位件171伸展至容纳槽177外,例如,磁吸组件包括磁性部件176和电磁部件174,可选地,磁性部件176包括但不限永磁体或者其他磁性部件176,磁性部件176和电磁部件174中的一者设置于机构主体172,另一者设置于限位件171,例如磁性部件176安装在限位件171上,磁性部件176可以设置于限位件171的连接板的上表面或者下表面或者镶嵌在连接板内,可选地,还可以通过粘接或者其他固定方式和连接板连接或者直接吸附在连接板(例如磁性部件176可以包括永磁体或者其他适合的磁性部件,而连接板含铁金属或合金)上,电磁部件174(例如电磁开关)安装在机构主体172上(例如嵌入在机构主体172内),电磁部件174通电和磁性部件176之间形成磁力,磁力使限位件171伸展至容纳槽177外。可选地,电磁部件174和磁性部件176相对设置,以便两者之间能够产生磁力。
继续参考图45,拆卸机构170还包括盖板173,该盖板173设置于机构主体172的底部,并和机构主体172可拆卸地连接,其可以用于支撑以及遮挡其上方的限位件171、第一复位件175、磁性组件等部件。
在一个示例中,如图45所示,拆卸机构170还包括第一复位件175,第一复位件175用于复位限位件171,以使限位件171收缩于容纳槽177内,可选地,第一复位件175可以是任意适合的能够实现复位的结构,例如第一复位件175是弹簧,例如拉伸弹簧或压缩弹簧。示例性地,当第一复位件175是拉伸弹簧时,拉伸弹簧的一端连接限位件171例如连接限位件171的连接板,而另一端可以连接位于限位件171下方的盖板173,从而始终提供使限位件171的凸起收纳于容纳槽177的作用力,而当电磁部件174通电时,克服拉伸弹簧的拉力而使限位件171的凸起伸展到容纳槽177外伸入到清洁模组底部的限位槽234,再例如,当第一复位件175是压缩弹簧时,压缩弹簧的一端连接限位件171,另一端抵接和限位件171的连接板相对且位于连接板上方的机构主体172,从而始终提供使限位件171的凸起收纳于容纳槽177的作用力,而当电磁部件174通电时,克服压缩弹簧的压力而使限位件171的凸起伸展到容纳槽177外伸入到清洁模组底部的限位槽234。
如图46和图47所示,在正常情况下,第一复位件175例如弹簧产生弹力使限位件171收缩到容纳槽177内,没有凸出到容纳槽177外,其和清洁模组底部的限位槽234对准时不会伸入到限位槽234内,如图48和图49所示,当电磁部件174例如电磁开关打开时,会产生磁力吸附限位件171向上活动,此时限位件171的两个凸起会凸出到容纳槽177外(也即伸出到机构主体172的表面以上),从而出入到清洁模组例如清扫模组231底部的限位槽234内,以便进行拆卸或安装。
在一些实施例中,拆卸机构170还包括第二复位件,第二复位件用于当受到压力时收缩,以使限位件171收缩至收纳槽内,以及复位限位件171,以使部分限位件171伸展至容纳槽177外,可选地,第二复位件可以是弹簧,例如压缩弹簧或者拉伸弹簧,其中,当第二复位件是压缩弹簧时,压缩弹簧的一端连接限位件171例如连接限位件171的连接板,而另一端可以连接位于限位件171下方的盖板173,从而始终提供使限位件171的凸起伸 展至容纳槽177外的作用力,而限位件171受到压力时,克服压缩弹簧的压力而使限位件171的凸起收纳到容纳槽177内,再例如,当第二复位件是拉伸弹簧时,拉伸弹簧的一端连接限位件171,另一端连接和限位件171的连接板相对且位于连接板上方的机构主体172,从而始终提供使限位件171的凸起伸展到容纳槽177外的作用力,而限位件171受到压力时,克服拉伸弹簧的拉力而使限位件171的凸起收纳到容纳槽177内。
在一些实施例中,前述的磁吸组件用于使限位件171收缩至容纳槽177内,其可以和第二复位件配合使用,用于使限位件171收缩至容纳槽177内,以便分离拆卸机构170和清洁模组,例如在拆卸机构170完成安装时,可以通过磁吸组件使限位件171收缩至容纳槽177内,从而脱离清洁模组底部的限位槽234,拆卸机构170和清洁模组即可分离。
在一个实施例中,基站还包括控制器(未示出)例如微控制单元(MCU),控制器用于:控制拆卸机构170拆卸清洁设备的清洁模组或者将清洁模组安装至清洁设备,该控制包括但限于控制拆卸机构170的电磁部件174(例如电磁开关)的开启或关断,控制拆卸机构170的驱动组件驱动拆卸机构170朝向清洁设备行进或者后退。

为了实现拆卸机构170的行进以便其安装或拆卸清洁模组,用于驱动拆卸机构170运动的驱动组件可以实现为如图50至图54所示的结构,驱动组件包括:驱动器181和与驱动器181机械耦合的第一传动组件,驱动器181用于驱动第一传动组件运动,第一传动组件连接机构主体172,用于带动机构主体172,向清洁设备移动或者远离清洁设备,可选地,第一传动组件包括第一传动轮1821、第二传动轮1822和第一传送带183,驱动器181与第一传动轮1821传动连接,第一传送带183套设于第一传动轮1821和第二传动轮1822上,并且第一传送带183和机构主体172连接。
可在基站内部相对的两侧均设置一组驱动组件,可以仅使一组驱动组件具有驱动器181,而另一组则可以不设置驱动器181,或者也可以是两组驱动组件均具有各自的驱动器181,具体可以根据实际需要合理设定。
在一个具体示例中,基站内部相对的两侧均设置一组驱动组件,第一传动轮1821和第二传动轮1822可以是齿轮,在基站主体内的第一侧(也可以称为左侧)和与第一侧相对的第二侧(也可以称为右侧)分别设置有轴承180固定位,该轴承180固定位用于固定轴承180,每个第一传动轮1821和第二传动轮1822连接轴承180,例如齿轮带的传送带183套设于第一传动轮1821和第二传动轮1822上,而传送带183通过光轴185连接机构主体172,第一侧的第一传动轮1821与驱动器181例如动力电机轴向连接,带动第二传动轮1822旋转,从而带动传动带移动,进而带动拆卸机构170前后移动(例如朝向清洁 设备移动或向远离清洁设备的方向移动)。
可选地,拆卸机构170的结构大体左右对称,也即关于拆卸机构170的中心轴线对称,其中心轴线平行于清洁模组的安装方向,可以仅通过将拆卸机构170的机构主体172位于基站主体内的第一侧的结构连接驱动器181产生驱动力,而邻近机构主体172位于基站主体内的第二侧的结构连接另一组驱动组件的第二传动轮1822,另一组驱动组件的传送带183通过光轴185连接机构主体172。
在一个示例中,传送带183上还可以设置有轴套,光轴185穿设于轴套中并连接机构主体172,从而在驱动器181的驱动下带动机构主体172前后移动。
继续参考图50至图54,驱动组件还包括从动轮184,从动轮184与机构主体172连接,基站主体设置有滑动槽,从动轮184可滑动地设置于滑动槽内,滑动槽用于容纳从动轮184在其中前后活动,可选地,从动轮184包括但不限于轴承180滚轮,滑动槽可以使轴承180轮嵌套在其中,当机构主体172被传动带带着活动时,从动轮184被一起带着在滑动槽内移动。
如图51至图54所示,驱动组件可以驱动拆卸机构170拆卸清洁模组例如清扫模组231,并驱动拆卸机构170携带被拆下的清洁模组向基站内的收纳位置移动,从而将拆卸下的清洁模组存储在基站的容置空间内。
通过上述的拆卸机构和驱动组件等结构,清洁设备可以进入基站进行清洁模组的更换,例如,基站不同高度的各层容置空间内,可以分别用于放置不同的清洁模组230,清洁设备200可以依次进入不同层的容置空间来更换清洁模组230。参照附图11-12,来对该过程进行具体说明。设备主体210首先可拆卸地连接清扫模组231,通过清扫模组231对待清洁表面清扫,清扫完成之后,在升降板120处于抬升的状态下,清洁设备200进入基站主体100的下层容置空间,拆下清扫模组231,使清扫模组231留在下层空间中,设备主体210退出基站外,然后升降板120下降至未抬升状态。参见附图12,设备主体210向未抬升的升降板120行进,当设备主体210位于升降板120上时,升降板120抬升。参见附图12,升降板120将设备主体210抬升至上层容置空间,设备主体210向前行进,直至与上层容置空间中放置的拖地模组232形成连接。拖地模组232连接至设备主体210后,升降板120带动其上的清洁设备200(包括设备主体210和拖地模组232)下降至未抬升状态,清洁设备200自升降板120上移动至基站外的待清洁表面上,并通过其上的拖地模组232对待清洁表面进行拖地清洁。从而,清洁设备200可以在基站不同的层的容置空间内更换不同的清洁模组230来对待清洁表面进行清洁。通过两种不同的清洁模组230对待清洁表面进行清洁,可以有效提升清洁效果。
在一些实施例中,基站还包括设于基站主体100的回收机构,所述回收机构包括抽吸源、回收中心、第一回收通道及第二回收通道。抽吸源可以包括风机212,回收中心可以包括脏污收集盒。抽吸源与回收中心连通,第一回收通道的两端分别用于连通回收中心及位于基站中预设位置的清扫模组231的尘盒26中的排尘口,抽吸源用于产生吸力以将尘盒26内的脏污通过第一回收通道收集至回收中心的脏污收集盒中。第二回收通道的两 端分别用于连通回收中心及位于基站中预设位置的拖地模组232中的污水箱49的污水出口45,抽吸源用于产生吸力以将污水箱49内的脏污通过第二回收通道收集至回收中心的脏污收集盒中,回收中心能够根据所述清洁模组230的类型选择性地与所述第一回收通道和所述第二回收通道中的一个连通。具体地,回收中心可以对基站主体内的清洁模组230的类型进行识别(例如识别其是清扫模组231还是拖地模组232),使然后通过例如三通控制阀之类的介质流向控制装置来选择性地与所述第一回收通道和所述第二回收通道中的一个连通。例如,识别到是清扫模组231后。则回收中心与第一回收通道联通,通过第一回收通道连接清扫模组231的尘盒26中的排尘口,以对清扫模组231的尘盒26中的脏污进行收集;识别到是拖地模组232后。则回收中心与第二回收通道联通,通过第二回收通道连接拖地模组232的污水箱49中的污水出口45,以对拖地模组232的污水箱49中的脏污进行收集。
综上所述,根据本发明的清洁系统可以具有以下有益效果:
1、充分利用了基站高度方向的空间利用率,基站通过多层容置空间可以容纳多个清洁设备200或容纳清洁设备200的多个清洁模组230,可以使清洁设备200在不同层的容置空间中进行存储、脏污收集或清洁模组230更换。
2、基站可以与多个清洁设备200配合工作,从而可以有效应用于多个清洁设备200协同工作的场景,提升清洁效率;也可以供单个清洁设备200更换不同的模块进行工作,提升清洁效果。
3、实现了自动更换清洁设备的清洁模组,并可以将拆卸下的清洁模组留在基站中进自清洁等,从而可以使得清洁设备保持持续工作状态;
4、通过本申请的清洁系统可以实现同一个清洁设备的设备主体,通过自动更换清洁模组,实现不同功能,如短毛刷、长毛刷、拖把等,从而扩展了清洁设备的功能。
5、可以避免用户手动接触清洁模组,从而方便了用户使用,更加便捷、干净、安全。
6、本发明清洁系统能够实现清洁模组的自动更换,可以通过在基站内部进行的更换,实现清洁设备针对不同材质环境,如地毯、木地板、瓷砖等场景,选择不同的清洁模组,实现全屋复杂环境的自动辨识和自动适应清洁,更加智能化。
