Abstract

An automatic cleaning device is provided, including: a mobile platform configured to automatically move on an operation surface; and a cleaning module arranged on the mobile platform and including a dry cleaning module and a wet cleaning module. The wet cleaning module includes a cleaning head used for cleaning the operation surface, and a driving unit used for driving the cleaning head to make a reciprocating movement along a target surface; the target surface is a part of the operation surface; the mobile platform is provided with a thimble; the wet cleaning module is provided with a slot matched with the thimble to limit the working position of the wet cleaning module.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An automatic cleaning device, comprising:
 a mobile platform configured to move automatically on an operating surface; and   a cleaning module arranged on the mobile platform, and comprising:
 a dry cleaning module configured to clean at least a part of the operating surface by means of dry cleaning; and 
 a wet cleaning module configured to clean at least a part of the operating surface by means of wet cleaning, wherein the wet cleaning module comprises:
 a cleaning head for cleaning the operating surface, and, 
 a driving unit for driving the cleaning head to make a reciprocating movement along a target surface, wherein the target surface is a part of the operating surface, 
 
   wherein the mobile platform is provided with a thimble, and the wet cleaning module is provided with a slot matched with the thimble, for limiting a working position of the wet cleaning module.   
     
     
         2 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 1 , wherein the slot comprises an elastic element, and the elastic element extends from the slot toward the mobile platform. 
     
     
         3 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 2 , wherein the slot further comprises a thimble sheath, and the thimble sheath extends upward from a bottom of the slot, allowing the thimble to make a telescopic movement within the thimble sheath. 
     
     
         4 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 3 , wherein the elastic element is a helical spring, and the helical spring is arranged around the periphery of the thimble sheath. 
     
     
         5 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 3 , wherein the thimble comprises a sliding portion and a fixed portion, the sliding portion slides along the thimble sheath, and the fixed portion is fixed to the mobile platform. 
     
     
         6 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 5 , wherein the fixed portion comprises a thread structure, and is fixed to the mobile platform through the thread structure. 
     
     
         7 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 5 , wherein an inner diameter of the thimble sheath is slightly larger than an outer diameter of the sliding portion. 
     
     
         8 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 3 , wherein a height of the elastic element in a natural state is greater than a height of the thimble sheath. 
     
     
         9 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 1 , wherein the wet cleaning module further comprises a driving platform connected to a bottom surface of the mobile platform, and the slot is arranged on the driving platform. 
     
     
         10 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 9 , wherein the slot is cylindrical or square. 
     
     
         11 . An automatic cleaning device, comprising:
 a mobile platform configured to move automatically on an operating surface; and   a cleaning module arranged on the mobile platform, and comprising:
 a dry cleaning module configured to clean at least a part of the operating surface by means of dry cleaning, and 
 a wet cleaning module configured to clean at least a part of the operating surface by means of wet cleaning, wherein the wet cleaning module comprises:
 a cleaning head for cleaning the operating surface, 
 a driving unit for driving the cleaning head to make a reciprocating movement along a target surface, wherein the target surface is a part of the operating surface; and 
 a driving platform connected to a bottom surface of the mobile platform, for providing a driving force, wherein the driving platform comprises:
 a motor arranged on a side of the driving platform close to the mobile platform, for outputting power through an output shaft of the motor; and 
 a connection rod arranged on a side of the driving platform opposite to the motor, one end of the connection rod being connected to the output shaft of the motor, wherein a buffer clip is provided at a joint between the connection rod and the output the shaft of the motor. 
 
 
   
     
     
         12 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 11 , wherein an end of the output the shaft of the motor comprises an annular groove, and the buffer clip is snapped into the annular groove. 
     
     
         13 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 12 , wherein the buffer clip comprises a notch, for providing an entrance when the buffer clip is snapped into the annular groove. 
     
     
         14 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 13 , wherein the buffer clip further comprises a snapping surface, for clasping the annular groove tightly when the buffer clip is snapped into the annular groove. 
     
     
         15 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 14 , wherein the snapping surface is a continuous structure or an intermittent structure. 
     
     
         16 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 11 , wherein the buffer clip is a sheet structure. 
     
     
         17 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 11 , wherein one end of the connection rod is provided with an opening, and the output shaft of the motor protrudes from the opening and is snapped by the buffer clip. 
     
     
         18 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 11 , wherein the driving platform further comprises a vibration member connected to the connection rod, and the vibration member is configured to make an approximate reciprocating movement under the driving of the motor. 
     
     
         19 . The automatic cleaning device according to  claim 18 , wherein an extending direction of the vibration member is substantially perpendicular to an extending direction of the connection rod.
