Referring to fig. 1, a sweeping robot 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 201, a hall sensor 202, and a mop assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The hall sensor 202 is mounted to the housing 201 and the mop assembly 100 is removably mounted to the housing 201.

Referring to fig. 2 to 6, the mop assembly 100 of the present embodiment includes a body 10, a mop support 20, a mop 30, and a magnet 40, wherein the body 10 is detachably mounted on a housing 201 of a robot cleaner 200. The mop support 20 is installed at the bottom of the body 10, the body 10 is covered on the mop support 20, a first installation groove 11 is formed at one side of the body 10 facing the mop support 20, and a second installation groove 22 (see fig. 6) corresponding to the first installation groove 11 is formed at one side of the mop support 20 facing the body 10. The mop 30 is mounted at the bottom of the mop support 20, the magnet 40 is clamped between the body 10 and the mop support 20, and one end of the magnet 40 is mounted in the first mounting groove 11 and the other end is mounted in the second mounting groove 22, the magnet 40 is configured to detect the relative position of the mop assembly 100 and the housing 201 in cooperation with the hall sensor 202 mounted on the housing 201.

In the mop assembly 100 and the robot cleaner 200 for the robot cleaner 200 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the body 10 is formed with the first mounting groove 11, the mop support 20 is formed with the second mounting groove 22, the magnet 40 is clamped between the first mounting groove 11 and the second mounting groove 22, and the magnet 40 is configured to detect a relative position of the mop assembly 100 and the housing 201 in cooperation with the hall sensor 202 mounted on the housing 201. Thus, when the mop assembly 100 is installed, the magnet 40 can be matched with the hall sensor 202 installed on the shell 201 to detect the relative position of the mop assembly 100 and the shell 201 so as to determine whether the mop assembly 100 is installed at the preset position of the shell 201, and the phenomenon that the work of the robot 200 is influenced due to the fact that the mop assembly 100 is installed unstably because the mop assembly 100 is installed incompletely is avoided. Meanwhile, the magnet 40 is clamped between the body and the mop bracket, so that the shell can be better protected and stored to prevent the magnet from falling and losing.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the sweeping robot 200 is an intelligent household appliance, and can automatically complete the cleaning work on the floor in a room. The housing 201 can protect the internal components of the sweeping robot 200. The mop assembly 100 may be mounted at the bottom of the housing 201 of the robot cleaner 200, and may be specifically the rear of the forward direction of the robot cleaner 200. Therefore, the sweeping robot 200 can clean the floor and then can mop the floor, and the cleaning capability of the sweeping robot 200 on the floor is further improved.

The mop assembly 100 can be detachably connected with the shell 201 of the sweeping robot 200, the mop assembly 100 after being used is convenient to clean, and meanwhile, when the ground is only cleaned without mopping, the mop assembly 100 can be detached to reduce the whole weight of the sweeping robot 200, so that the sweeping robot 200 can have longer endurance time.

As shown in fig. 3, the body 10 can serve as the main load-bearing structure of the mop assembly 100 for mounting and positioning other structures in the mop assembly 100. Further, the mop holder 20 may be provided at the bottom of the body 10, and the mop 30 may be provided at the bottom of the mop holder 20, or, as it is, the mop holder 20 is supported against the bottom of the body 10, and the mop 30 is supported against the bottom of the mop holder 20.

Referring to fig. 3 and 6, a magnet 40 may be provided between the body 10 and the mop holder 20, and further, the magnet 40 may be provided in the first and second mounting grooves 11 and 22. The first mounting groove 11 may be provided on the bottom surface of the body 10 with the open end facing the direction of the mop support 20, and the second mounting groove 22 may be provided on the top surface of the mop support 20 with the open end facing the direction of the body 10, the positions of the first mounting groove 11 and the second mounting groove 22 being correspondingly provided. The magnet 40 may be provided in a pie shape, or may be provided in other shapes, and the shape of the magnet 40 is not particularly limited in this application. The shapes of the first and second mounting grooves 11 and 22 are arranged corresponding to the shape of the magnet 40. The sum of the depths of the first and second mounting grooves 11 and 22 may be the thickness of the magnet 40.

The hall sensor 202 is a sensor that uses hall effect to make the displacement drive the hall element to move in the magnetic field to generate hall potential, i.e. converting the displacement signal into a potential change signal. The hall sensor 202 has the advantages of simple structure, small volume, wide frequency response, large dynamic range and the like. The hall sensor 202 can be disposed on the housing 201 corresponding to the position of the magnet 40, it should be noted that the magnet 40 is separated from the hall sensor 202 by the body 10, and in order not to affect the fit between the magnet 40 and the hall sensor 202, the body 10 can be made of a non-magnetic shielding material, such as hard plastic.

In the present embodiment, the hall sensor 202 is used to cooperate with the magnet 40 to determine the relative position between the mop assembly 100 and the housing 201 of the robot cleaner 200. When the mop assembly 100 is mounted to the housing 201 at a predetermined position, the magnet 40 of the mop assembly 100 and the hall sensor 202 of the housing 201 are displaced relative to each other, and the hall sensor 202 can generate an electric signal to send out information that the mop assembly 100 has reached the predetermined position, which can be displayed by flashing an indicator light, a voice prompt, etc. For example, when the mop assembly 100 is not installed to a predetermined position, the hall sensor 202 displays a red light; the hall sensor 202 displays a green light when the mop assembly 100 is installed in a predetermined position. In the embodiment of the present application, the prompting form of the hall sensor 202 is not particularly limited.

Referring to fig. 4 to 6, in some embodiments, the bottom surface of the body 10 is formed with a first mounting groove 11, the mop holder 20 is formed with a first protrusion 21, the first protrusion 21 protrudes from the top surface of the mop holder 20 and abuts against the bottom surface of the body 10, and the first protrusion 21 is formed with a second mounting groove 22.

So, water can be contacted in the course of the work of mop subassembly 100, and the second mounting groove 22 opening of setting on first convex part 21 is up, and first convex part 21 can prevent effectively that water from getting into the cooperation of influence magnet 40 and hall sensor 202 in the second mounting groove 22.

Specifically, part of the magnet 40 is located in the second mounting groove 22 such that the position of the first protrusion 21 should correspond to the position of the hall sensor 202. The depth of the second mounting groove 22 may be the height of the first protrusion 21, i.e., the bottom of the second mounting groove 22 may be flush with the top of the mop holder 20. In the present application, the depths of the first mounting groove 11 and the second mounting groove 22 are not particularly limited, and both may cover the magnet 40.

Referring to fig. 4 and 7, in some embodiments, the mop assembly 100 further includes a holding structure 50 connected between the main body 10 and the mop support 20, the holding structure 50 includes a limiting key 51 and a spring 52 connected to the limiting key 51, the limiting key 51 is movably mounted on the main body 10, one end of the spring 52 holds the limiting key 51, and the other end holds the mop support 20, when the main body 10 is mounted on the housing 201, the limiting key 51 holds the housing 201, and the elastic member is in a compressed state to keep the mop assembly 100 moving in a direction away from the housing 201.

So, robot 200 sweeps floor in the course of the work, the existence of spacing key 51 and spring 52 can make mop subassembly 100 keep wanting to keep away from the trend of casing 201 motion so that mop 30 can hug closely ground, and need not to set up other counter weight structure and make mop 30 hug closely ground, has alleviateed robot 200's whole weight, has improved robot 200's the cleaning efficiency of sweeping floor.

Specifically, the holding structure 50 is used for keeping the mop assembly 100 moving in a direction away from the housing 201 when the mop assembly 100 is mounted on the housing 201, or the holding structure 50 can press the mop 30 on the ground to increase the friction between the mop 30 and the ground, so that the mop 30 can wipe the ground clean, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

The hold down key 51 is located at the upper portion of the spring 52 so that the hold down key 51 can press down the spring 52, and further so that the spring 52 can press down the mop holder 20 further to increase the friction between the mop 30 on the mop holder 20 and the floor. It can be understood that there is a certain play between the limiting key 51 and the spring 52 to avoid pressing the spring 52 for a long time to cause the spring 52 to fall elastically.

Referring to fig. 7, in some embodiments, a stepped hole 53 is formed on the body 10, the limiting key 51 is installed in the stepped hole 53 and abuts against a stepped surface 531 of the stepped hole 53, and a top of the limiting key 51 protrudes from the stepped hole 53 and can move in the stepped hole 53 along an axial direction of the stepped hole 53.

Therefore, the limiting key 51 is arranged in the stepped hole 53, the working stability of the limiting key 51 is guaranteed, the stepped surface 531 of the stepped hole 53 can limit the position of the limiting key 51, and the limiting key 51 can be guaranteed to abut against the spring 52.

Specifically, the depth of the stepped hole 53 on the body 10 is greater than the length of the limit key 51 itself, so that a certain movement space, that is, a movement margin of the limit key 51, can be formed. The stepped hole 53 penetrates through the body 10, and further, the diameter of the stepped hole 53 opposite to the mop support 20 direction is smaller than that of the stepped hole 53 close to the mop support 20 direction, so that the stepped surface 531 is formed to clamp the limit key 51. Further, the stopper key 51 may include a protrusion 511 protruding outside the stepped hole 53 and a support 512, and the cross-sectional area of the support 512 is larger than that of the protrusion 511. The protruding portion 511 can protrude upward from the stepped hole 53, and the support portion 512 abuts on the stepped surface 531.

When the mop assembly 100 is not mounted on the housing 201 of the sweeping robot 200, the spring 52 presses the limit key 51 upwards, and at this time, the stepped surface 531 presses the supporting portion 512 of the limit key 51, and the protruding portion 511 can protrude from the stepped hole 53. When the mop assembly 100 is mounted on the housing 201 of the sweeping robot 200, the housing 201 abuts against the limit key 51, the support portion 512 is far away from the stepped surface 531, and the spring 52 is compressed, so that the mop assembly 100 keeps the trend of moving far away from the housing 201, and the mop 30 can be tightly attached to the ground.

Referring to fig. 7, in some embodiments, the limit key 51 is formed with a top bar 513, one end of the spring 52 is sleeved on the top bar 513, the mop support 20 is formed with a second protrusion 54, the second protrusion 54 is formed with a limit hole 541, and the other end of the spring 52 is located in the limit hole 541 and abuts against the bottom wall of the limit hole 541.

In this way, the second protrusion 54 and the top rod 513 limit the position of the spring 52 together, so that the spring 52 can move only in one vertical direction, the spring 52 is prevented from deviating from the original position, and the spring 52 and the limit key 51 are more stable and reliable.

Specifically, the push rod 513 may be a structure formed by the supporting portion 512 protruding toward the mop holder 20, and the push rod 513 may allow the spring 52 to be sleeved on the push rod 513. The second protrusion 54 may be formed by upwardly protruding from the top surface of the mop holder 20, the second catching hole 541 faces the direction of the body 10, i.e., the second catching hole 541 may be opposite to the stepped hole 53, and the inner diameter of the stepped hole 53 near the second protrusion 54 may be slightly larger than the outer circumferential diameter of the second protrusion 54, so that the stepped hole 53 may cover the entire second protrusion 54, so that the catching hole 541 and the stepped hole 53 may be butted to form a relatively closed space.

In one example, when the mop assembly 100 is not mounted on the housing 201 of the sweeping robot 200, the limiting key 51 is pushed up by the spring 52, so that the movement margin of the limiting key 51 is used for extending the spring 52, and at this time, the spring 52 is under a smaller pressure, and the mop assembly 100 does not tend to move away from the housing 201. In another example, when the mop assembly 100 is mounted on the housing 201 of the sweeping robot 200, the limiting key 51 may be supported by the housing 201, so that the limiting key 51 compresses the spring 52 downward, and the spring 52 is located in the limiting hole 541 and supports against the bottom wall of the limiting hole 541, so that the mop assembly 100 may keep moving in a direction away from the housing 201.

In the actual assembly process, the limiting key 51 is disposed in the stepped hole 53 of the body 10, the spring 52 is disposed in the limiting hole 541 of the second protrusion 54 of the mop holder 20, and the body 10 and the mop holder 20 are fixedly mounted together, so that the body 10 and the mop holder 20 form a whole. At this time, the stopper key 51 and the spring 52 are disposed in the inner space formed by the second protrusion 54 and the stepped hole 53, ensuring the operational stability of the stopper key 51 and the spring 52. The centers of the second convex portion 54, the top rod 513, the stepped hole 53 and the limiting hole 541 should be coaxial, or the coaxial errors of the second convex portion 54, the top rod 513, the stepped hole 53 and the limiting hole 541 are small, and it can be considered that the centers of the second convex portion 54, the top rod 513, the stepped hole 53 and the limiting hole 541 coincide. When the body 10 and the mop holder 20 are fixedly mounted together, the push rod 513 can be inserted into the spring 52 to fix the upper end of the spring 52, and the lower end of the spring 52 can be inserted into the limiting hole 541 and abut against the bottom wall of the limiting hole 541, so that the spring 52 is fixed. Thus, the limiting key 51 and the spring 52 can move in the vertical direction, and the dislocation of the limiting key 51 and the spring 52 is avoided, so that the abutting structure 50 has insufficient acting force to the mop cloth 30.

Further, as shown in fig. 4, in some embodiments, the number of the abutting structures 50 may be two, and the two abutting structures 50 are symmetrically disposed at two ends of the body 10.

So, two are supported holding structure 50 and can guarantee to have sufficient support power to exert on mop 30 to increase the frictional force of mop 30 and ground, promote the clearance effect on ground, two are supported holding structure 50 symmetry and are set up the laminating area that can guarantee mop 30 and ground at the both ends of body 10 simultaneously, increase the clean area of mop 30.

It will be appreciated that the mop cloth 30 must have a certain surface area to engage the floor surface to improve the cleaning efficiency of the mop cloth 30. The two holding structures 50 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the body 10, so that the mop cloth 30 between the two holding structures 50 can be compacted on the ground. Of course, when the number of the abutting structures 50 is two, the second protrusions 54 and the stepped holes 53 matched with the two abutting structures are also symmetrically arranged at the two ends of the body 10. In the embodiment of the present application, the number of the abutting structures 50 is not particularly limited.

Referring to fig. 3 and 8, in some embodiments, the mop assembly 100 further includes a locking device 60, the locking device 60 being mounted to the body 10, the locking device 60 being configured to lock or unlock the body 10 and the housing 201 when the mop assembly 100 is mounted to the housing 201.

In this manner, a user can install the mop assembly 100 on the housing 201 using the locking device 60, so that the sweeping robot 200 can have a function of mopping the floor. Or the user can remove the mop assembly 100 from the housing 201 by unlocking the locking mechanism 60, thereby reducing the weight of the sweeper robot 200 or replacing the cleaning mop 30.

Specifically, the locking device 60 includes a first movable member 61, a second movable member 62 and a torsion spring 63, the first movable member 61 is movably installed on the body 10, the second movable member 62 is rotatably installed on the body 10, the second movable member 62 is connected to the first movable member 61, the torsion spring 63 is installed on the body 10 and respectively abuts against the second movable member 62 and the body 10, and when the mop assembly 100 is installed on the housing 201 of the robot 200, the second movable member 62 cooperates with the housing 201 under the action of the torsion spring 63 to lock the mop assembly 100 and the housing 201. When the mop assembly 100 and the housing 201 are required, a user can press the first movable member 61 with a finger, and the first movable member 61 moves relative to the body 10 under the action of external force to drive the second movable member 62 to rotate relative to the body 10 against the action of the torsion spring 63 so as to separate the second movable member 62 from the body 10 to unlock the mop assembly 100 and the housing 201. Thus, when it is desired to remove the mop assembly 100 from the housing 201 in its entirety, it is only necessary to apply a force to the first movable member 61 to drive the second movable member 62 away from the body 10 so that the mop assembly 100 can be removed from the housing 201 in its entirety. The disassembly is convenient so as to clean the mop assembly 100, and the weight of the sweeping robot 200 can be reduced, so that the standby time of the sweeping robot 200 is ensured.

It is understood that the number of the locking devices 60 may be two, and the two abutting structures 50 are symmetrically disposed at two ends of the body 10, respectively, so that the body 10 can be mounted on the housing 201.
