When the rotating member 123 reciprocates along the sliding slot 1211, the first triggering member 1231 is driven to rotate, so that the first triggering member 1231 abuts against the disconnecting switch 31, and the disconnecting switch 31 is driven to slide. Preferably, the first triggering member 1231 and the disconnecting switch 31 are located on the same rotating track, which is not strictly limited herein, as long as the first triggering member 1231 can correctly trigger the disconnecting switch 31. Specifically, the rotating member 123 is a reduction gear set, and the reduction purpose is achieved by combining gears of different sizes, for example, a small gear drives a large gear to rotate, of course, the specific number of the gears includes but is not limited to two, and the specific number may be set as required, and is not limited herein.

As an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the present invention further provides a method for replacing the cleaning unit 30, which can automatically disassemble the cleaning unit 30 on the integrated assembly 13, and mainly comprises the following steps:
step B1, lowering the integrated component 13, switching the unhooking component 12 from the first state to the second state to trigger the separating switch 31 of the second cleaning unit to move from the first position to the second position, so that the connecting component is disconnected from the integrated component 13, and the second cleaning unit descends along with gravity;
step B2, the disconnect switch 31 of the second cleaning unit is manually activated and secured to the robotic cleaning device 20 by the mounting assembly 33.
Wherein the unhooking assembly 12 can be used for disassembling the cleaning unit 30 on the automatic cleaning device 20, and can also be used for automatically disassembling the cleaning unit 30 on the integrated assembly 13. The integrated assembly 13 can store different cleaning units 30 at ordinary times, and the integrated assembly 13 can provide corresponding cleaning units 30 through selection and setting of a user so as to meet different requirements.
As an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the present invention further provides a method for replacing the cleaning unit 30, which can automatically replace the cleaning unit 30, and mainly includes the following steps:
step S1, the automatic cleaning device 20 returns to the base station 10, the unhooking assembly 12 triggers the separation switch 31 of the first cleaning unit to separate the first cleaning unit from the automatic cleaning device 20, and the first cleaning unit descends;
step S2, the automatic cleaning device 20 is driven away from the base station 10, the integrated component 13 descends, and the unhooking component 12 triggers the disconnecting switch 31 of the first cleaning unit to enable the first cleaning unit to ascend and be fixed with the integrated component 13;
step S3, the integrated component 13 ascends and rotates, so that the second cleaning unit is located right below the integrated component 13; when the integrated assembly 13 descends, the unhooking assembly 12 triggers the separating switch 31 of the second cleaning unit to separate the second cleaning unit from the integrated assembly 13, and the second cleaning unit descends along with gravity;
in step S4, the automatic cleaning apparatus 20 returns to the base station 10, and the unhooking assembly 12 triggers the separation switch 31 of the second cleaning unit to lift the second cleaning unit to be fixed to the automatic cleaning apparatus 20.
Steps S1-S4 will be explained in detail below.
In step S1, the unhooking assembly 12 rotates the holding member 332 by triggering the separation switch 31 of the first cleaning unit, and the positioning hole 331 is aligned with the holding hole 3321, and the cleaning unit 30 descends synchronously with the support 1236, so that the first positioning member 211 is sequentially separated from the holding hole 3321 and the positioning hole 331. It is understood that the automatic cleaning apparatus 20 itself may be vibrated to prevent the first positioning member 211 from being unable to be disengaged from the card hole 3321 and the positioning hole 331. The first cleaning unit may be a sweeping unit, and the automatic cleaning device 20 may return to the base station 10 to replace the cleaning unit 30 after completing the sweeping operation, so as to replace the cleaning mode.
In step S2, after the automatic cleaning device 20 moves away from the base station 10, the first cleaning unit is located at the bottom of the cavity 11 of the base station 10, the integrated component 13 descends through the lifting component 14 and rotates through the rotating component to make the idle second positioning element 133 face downward, the unhooking component 12 triggers the separating switch 31 of the first cleaning unit to make the second positioning element 133 sequentially pass through the positioning hole 331 and the clamping hole 3321, and after the rotating element 123 is reset, the separating switch 31 resets and drives the clamping element 332 to rotate to lock the second positioning element 133.
In step S3, the first cleaning unit is lifted by the integrated component 13, the integrated component 13 rotates to make the second cleaning unit located right below the integrated component 13 and descend, so that the separating switch 31 of the second cleaning unit is located at the same height as the unhooking component 12, and the unhooking component 12 repeats the unhooking step to make the second cleaning unit located at the bottom of the cavity 11 of the base station 10. Wherein the second cleaning unit may be a floor mopping unit, and the automatic cleaning apparatus 20 performs a sweeping-mopping mode by replacing the cleaning unit 30.
In step S4, the automatic cleaning device 20 returns to the base station 10 again, the receiving cavity 21 of the automatic cleaning device 20 is located above the second cleaning unit, the unhooking assembly 12 triggers the separating switch 31 of the second cleaning unit to lift the second cleaning unit, the first positioning element 211 sequentially passes through the positioning hole 331 and the locking hole 3321, and finally, the second cleaning unit is fixed to the automatic cleaning device 20.
In particular, in other embodiments of the present invention, the automatic cleaning device 20 may also be configured to replace the cleaning unit 30 without moving, and may be specifically configured as required, without any limitation.
In summary, according to the automatic cleaning system 100 provided by the present invention, the cleaning unit 30 of the automatic cleaning device 20 can be automatically detached through the cooperation of the unhooking component 12 and the mounting component 33, the cleaning unit 30 is received through the integration component 13 disposed in the base station 10, and the new cleaning unit 30 is automatically mounted on the automatic cleaning device 20, so that automation is completely achieved, manual replacement is not required, the user experience is greatly improved, and meanwhile, the cleaning unit 30 can greatly reduce the space occupied by the automatic cleaning device 20 through the modularized arrangement.
Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes may be made and equivalents may be substituted for elements thereof without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
