The present disclosure relates to the field of cleaning robot technology, and in particular to a cleaning robot system. The cleaning robot system includes a base station and a cleaning robot. The base station is independent to the cleaning robot of the cleaning robot system. The base station includes a base station body and a mop member cleaning device arranged on the base station body. The mop member cleaning device is configured to clean a mop member of the cleaning robot. Based on the base station, the cleaning robot system is capable of automatically cleaning the mop member with no need for users to change or clean the mop member frequently, which is helpful to free consumers from house cleaning, thus relieving the burden on the consumers, and also helpful to clean the mop member in time so as to ensure a better effect in next cleaning.

A docking station for a robotic surface cleaning apparatus has a momentum separator. The momentum separator has an upper wall, a lower wall and a first sidewall extending between the upper and lower walls. The first sidewall comprises a side screen and an end wall is spaced from and faces the side screen whereby an up flow chamber is positioned between the end wall and the side screen. The upper wall also comprises an upper screen and an upper end wall is spaced from and faces the upper screen wherein an upper air flow chamber is positioned between the upper end wall and the upper screen.

A method for operating a base station for a cleaning device is proposed, wherein exclusively by means of a pressure sensor and/or by means of a differential pressure the filling level of the container is determined as state of the base station and additionally at least one further state of the base station is determined and/or wherein on reaching a predefined filling level the maximum number of still possible extraction processes with-out emptying a container is limited.

The present disclosure relates to a cleaner system including: a cleaner; a cleaner station; and an imaginary plane including an imaginary suction flow path through line penetrating a suction flow path in a longitudinal direction and an imaginary suction motor axis defined by extending a rotation axis of a suction motor, in which when the cleaner is coupled to the cleaner station, the plane penetrates at least a part of the cleaner station, such that a center of gravity of the cleaner is disposed to pass through a space for maintaining balance of the station, and as a result, it is possible to stably support the cleaner and the station while preventing the cleaner and the station from falling down.

The present application discloses a cleaning device and a dust box. The cleaning device may comprise a cleaning apparatus and a switching assembly. The cleaning apparatus may be connected to a base station to form a suction channel with the base station. The base station may suction waste inside the cleaning apparatus via the suction channel. The switching assembly may be provided in the cleaning apparatus to intermittently block the suction channel to change the pressure of the suction channel, so that the waste inside the cleaning device can be suctioned out of the cleaning device.

A docking station for a surface cleaning apparatus has a floor standing base unit with a docking station dirt collection chamber, and upflow and down flow ducts that are connectable with the surface cleaning apparatus.

The present disclosure relates to a cleaner system including: a cleaner; a cleaner station; and an imaginary plane including an imaginary suction flow path through line penetrating a suction flow path in a longitudinal direction and an imaginary suction motor axis defined by extending a rotation axis of a suction motor, in which when the cleaner is coupled to the cleaner station, the plane penetrates at least a part of the cleaner station, such that a center of gravity of the cleaner is disposed to pass through a space for maintaining balance of the station, and as a result, it is possible to stably support the cleaner and the station while preventing the cleaner and the station from falling down.

An extraction interface for connecting a first flow channel to a second flow channel in an airtight manner has a main body with an extraction opening. The extraction opening has an opening plane and a sealing element that surrounds the extraction opening in the circumferential direction. In order to improve a sealing effect of the sealing element, the sealing element is an elastic bellows, which when viewed in a cross section oriented orthogonal to the opening plane has in a relaxed state of the sealing element an E-shape with at least one bending point, two legs that meet in the bending point and two leg end regions adjoining the legs. The leg end regions point radially outward in a direction facing away from the extraction opening and are connected to two locally separated connecting points of the main body.

A cleaning station for vacuum robots for cleaning floor surfaces, the cleaning station having a housing, the housing having an electrical interface, the interface being designed to contact a vacuum robot approaching the cleaning station for charging, the housing having a suction device, the suction device being designed to empty a vacuum robot approaching the cleaning station for emptying. The housing has at least one status display, the status display being designed to display an operating status of the interface and/or the suction device, wherein the status display comprises at least one projection apparatus. The projection apparatus is designed to project the operating status of the interface and/or the suction device onto the vacuum robot which has approached and/or onto the floor surface and/or onto a wall surface surrounding the cleaning station.

Disclosed are a base station and a cleaning system. The base station is configured for pumping dirt from a cleaning robot and injecting water to the cleaning robot, and the cleaning robot is defined with a host dirt collecting chamber and a host clean water chamber. The base station includes a base station body, a dirt pumping assembly and a water injection assembly. The dirt pumping assembly is arranged in the base station body, and can move relative to the base station body and communicate with the host dirt collecting chamber; The water injection assembly is arranged in the base station body, and can move relative to the base station body and communicate with the host clean water chamber. The technical solution of the present application can make the use function of the base station more diversified, and improve the practicability of the base station.
