The station comprises: a water supply tank provided to store water supplied from outside the station; a sewage tank provided to store sewage generated during washing of the mop; a water supply pipe connecting member provided to connect a water supply pipe provided to supply water to the water supply tank to the station; a drain pipe connecting member provided to connect a drain pipe provided to discharge sewage of the sewage tank to the station; a housing provided to accommodate the water supply pipe connecting member and the drain pipe connecting member; a coupling hole formed in the housing to allow the water supply pipe and the drain pipe outside the housing to be inserted into an inside of the housing; and a separation hole formed in the housing to separate the water supply pipe and the drain pipe from the water supply pipe connecting member and the drain pipe connecting member.

1 . A cleaning device comprising:
 a cleaner including a mop and a water tank provided to supply water to the mop; and   a station provided to allow the cleaner to be mounted thereon and configured to wash the mop and including:
 a water supply tank provided to store water supplied from outside the station; 
 a sewage tank provided to store water discharged from the station; 
 a water supply pipe connecting member provided to connect a water supply pipe provided to supply water to the water supply tank to the station; 
 a drain pipe connecting member provided to connect a drain pipe provided to discharge the water of the sewage tank to the station; 
 a housing provided to accommodate the water supply pipe connecting member and the drain pipe connecting member; 
 a coupling hole formed in the housing to allow the water supply pipe to connect to the water supply pipe connecting member accommodated in the housing and to allow the drain pipe to connect to the drain pipe connecting member accommodated in the housing; and 
 a separation hole formed in the housing, spaced apart from the coupling hole, configured to allow separation of the water supply pipe from the water supply pipe connecting member and configured to allow separation of the drain pipe from the drain pipe connecting member. 
   
     
     
         2 . The cleaning device of  claim 1 , wherein
 the water supply pipe connecting member is provided to fix the water supply pipe to prevent separation of the water supply pipe from the water supply pipe connecting member while the water supply pipe connecting member and the water supply pipe are connected,   wherein the water supply pipe connecting member includes a release portion provided to release the water supply pipe.   
     
     
         3 . The cleaning device of  claim 2 , wherein
 the water supply pipe connecting member is provided to release the water supply pipe based on the release portion being pushed,   wherein the release portion is provided to be accessible through the separation hole.   
     
     
         4 . The cleaning device of  claim 1 , wherein
 the water supply pipe includes an external water supply pipe disposed outside the station; and an internal water supply pipe disposed inside the station,
 wherein the water supply pipe connecting member is provided to connect the external water supply pipe and the internal water supply pipe. 
   
     
     
         5 . The cleaning device of  claim 4 , wherein
 the water supply pipe connecting member includes:
 a first water supply pipe connecting portion having a first water supply port formed therein to receive the external water supply pipe, the first water supply pipe connecting portion extending in a vertical direction; 
 a second water supply pipe connecting portion having a second water supply port formed therein to receive the internal water supply pipe, the second water supply pipe connecting portion extending in a horizontal direction; and 
 a water supply pipe bent portion provided to connect the first water supply pipe connecting portion and the second water supply pipe connecting portion. 
   
     
     
         6 . The cleaning device of  claim 5 , wherein
 the housing is provided to fix the water supply pipe connecting member to prevent damage to the water supply pipe bent portion based on the external water supply pipe, coupled to the first water supply pipe connecting portion, being pulled.   
     
     
         7 . The cleaning device of  claim 5 , wherein
 the coupling hole is formed below the first water supply pipe connecting portion in the vertical direction to allow the external water supply pipe to pass through the coupling hole and be coupled to the first water supply pipe connecting portion.   
     
     
         8 . The cleaning device of  claim 5 , wherein
 the separation hole is formed at a position spaced from the first water supply pipe connecting portion in the horizontal direction to allow the first water supply pipe connecting portion to be exposed to outside of the housing through the separation hole.   
     
     
         9 . The cleaning device of  claim 5 , wherein
 the housing includes a water supply pipe support portion provided to support an outer surface of at least a portion of the external water supply pipe adjacent to the first water supply port to allow the at least the portion of the external water supply pipe to be fixed in the horizontal direction.   
     
     
         10 . The cleaning device of  claim 9 , wherein
 the water supply pipe support portion forms a portion of the coupling hole.   
     
     
         11 . The cleaning device of  claim 1 , wherein
 the coupling hole includes: a first coupling hole through which the water supply pipe passes; and a second coupling hole through which the drain pipe passes,   wherein the first coupling hole and the second coupling hole are spaced apart from each other along a horizontal direction.   
     
     
         12 . The cleaning device of  claim 1 , wherein
 the separation hole includes: a first separation hole provided to expose at least a portion of the water supply pipe connecting member to outside of the housing; and a second separation hole provided to expose at least a portion of the drain pipe connecting member to outside of the housing,   wherein the first separation hole and the second separation hole are spaced apart from each other in a horizontal direction.   
     
     
         13 . The cleaning device of  claim 1 , wherein
 the water supply pipe connecting member and the drain pipe connecting member are disposed adjacent to a rear surface of the station.
