S10, it is determined that the energy supply part 30 is connected to the cleaning robot.
When the cleaning robot works, the energy supply part 30 is required to supply energy to drive each part to work, the way of connecting the energy supply part 30 with the cleaning robot is determined, the energy supply part 30 is installed at a designated position by a user and is fixed correspondingly, a cover can be arranged on the outer side where the energy supply part is installed, and the cover is covered and fixed after the energy supply part 30 is installed. The cleaning robot is provided with a main switch, after the energy supply component 30 is installed, the main switch is toggled, and the cleaning robot prompts whether the energy supply component 30 is successfully connected with the cleaning robot in a voice mode or a light mode.
S20, acquiring a voltage value; s30 obtains the current electric quantity value.
After the connection between the energy supply part 30 and the cleaning robot is determined, the cleaning robot is started, the cleaning robot starts to work, and the controller 40 acquires the voltage value of the energy supply part 30 and the current electric quantity value of the energy supply part 30 in real time during the working process of the cleaning robot. Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a control flow chart of collecting voltage values and collecting electric quantity values according to an embodiment of the present invention. The controller 40 comprises a reference database comprising real electrical quantities corresponding to the voltage values. After the controller 40 acquires the voltage value and the current charge value, step S203 is executed to access the reference database, and step S213 is executed to determine whether the current charge value corresponds to the actual charge value of the acquired voltage value in the reference database. If the obtained current electric quantity value corresponds to the actual electric quantity value of the obtained voltage value in the reference database, step S223 is executed to obtain an electric quantity ratio according to the current electric quantity value, and if the obtained current electric quantity value does not correspond to the actual electric quantity value of the obtained voltage value in the reference database, step S233 is executed to correct the current electric quantity value, and the electric quantity ratio is obtained according to the corrected current electric quantity value.
The reference database includes a voltage value of the energy providing unit 30 at full power being a1, a true electric quantity value corresponding to the voltage value at full power being Q1, a voltage value of the energy providing unit 30 at need of charging being A3, and a true electric quantity value corresponding to the voltage value at need of charging being Q3, where a1 is greater than A3, and Q1 is greater than Q3. When the voltage value obtained by the controller 40 is a1, if the obtained current electric quantity value is not Q1, the obtained current electric quantity value needs to be corrected, please refer to fig. 5, where fig. 5 is a flowchart of correcting the current electric quantity value according to an embodiment of the present invention. S243 obtains a total electric quantity value, which is a total energy of the energy supply unit 30 when it is fully charged. It should be noted that the total electric quantity value is different from a rated electric quantity (factory electric quantity), and the total electric quantity value is a maximum total electric quantity value that can be reached by the energy supply component under an optimal environment when the energy supply component 30 is factory and factory is factory, at this time, the total electric quantity value is consistent with the rated electric quantity, but the total electric quantity value of the energy supply component becomes lower and lower with repeated use of the energy supply component 30. In other embodiments, the total charge value may need to be updated when a replacement of the energy providing component 30 is detected. When the voltage value acquired by the controller 40 is greater than the previous voltage value and the acquired electric quantity value is greater than the previous electric quantity value, it is determined that the energy supplying member 30 has been replaced, and the electric quantity value at this time is stored as the total electric quantity value.
In the embodiment, when the obtained current electric quantity value is different from the real electric quantity value corresponding to the voltage value in the reference database, the current electric quantity value is corrected without correcting the obtained current electric quantity value every time, so that the process of obtaining the current electric quantity value is simplified, and the complexity of obtaining the current electric quantity value is reduced.
S253 calculates the consumed electric quantity value. The consumed electric quantity value is calculated from the working current of the cleaning robot integrated over time, starting with the determination of the total electric quantity value of the energy supply means 30. The corrected current electric quantity value of S263 is the difference between the total electric quantity value and the consumed electric quantity value.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a graph of voltage versus actual current. The reference database includes a voltage value of the energy providing component 30 at full power being a1, a true electric quantity value corresponding to the voltage value at full power being Q1, a voltage value of the energy providing component 30 requiring charging being A3, a true electric quantity value corresponding to the voltage value requiring charging being Q3, an a2 voltage value between a1 and A3, and a true electric quantity value Q2 corresponding to a2, a1 being greater than a2, a2 being greater than A3, Q1 being greater than Q2, Q2 being greater than Q3. During the normal operation of the cleaning robot, the voltage values continuously obtained by the controller 40 are changed from a large value to a small value, i.e., from a1 to a2 to A3. The corresponding true charge values also vary from large to small, i.e., from Q1 to Q2 to Q3. If the voltage value obtained by the controller 40 is changed from small to large and the current electric quantity value is changed from large to small, it is determined that the cleaning robot is in an abnormal working state. For example: when the cleaning robot is jammed or otherwise causes the cleaning robot to be unable to move forward or backward, and to stay on the way of passing the threshold, the resistance received by each component during operation increases, the voltage value obtained by the controller 40 increases, and the energy provided by the energy providing component 30 is consumed in the process, so the current electric quantity value obtained by the controller 40 decreases, and thus the cleaning robot is judged to be in an abnormal working state. Conceivably, it may be set that when the controller 40 detects that the voltage value continuously increases and the current electric quantity value continuously decreases for a preset time or a preset frequency, it is determined that the cleaning robot is in the abnormal working state, so as to further improve the accuracy of determining that the cleaning robot is in the abnormal working state. In other embodiments, the Q1 or Q2 or Q3 may be a range of values, such as Q1 characterizing a total charge value greater than ninety percent and Q3 being a total charge value less than thirty percent.
S40 derives a charge ratio based on the current charge value. And obtaining a total electric quantity value and a current electric quantity value according to the steps, and obtaining an electric quantity ratio according to the ratio of the current electric quantity value to the total electric quantity value. Under the condition that the current electric quantity value needs to be corrected, the current electric quantity value when the electric quantity ratio is calculated is the corrected current electric quantity value, so that the obtained electric quantity ratio is more accurate.
S50, when the voltage value and the power ratio respectively satisfy a first threshold and a second threshold, the cleaning robot enters a low power mode. Referring to fig. 7 and 8, fig. 7 is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining that a cleaning robot enters a low energy mode according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 8 is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining that the cleaning robot normally operates according to an embodiment of the present invention. After executing step S20, the controller 40 further executes step S21 to determine whether the voltage value is smaller than the first threshold, and stores the determination result. Step S60 and obtaining the electric quantity ratio, obtaining the electric quantity ratio obtained according to the obtained current electric quantity value in the previous step, and step S61 is executed to determine whether the electric quantity ratio is smaller than a second threshold. If the voltage value is less than the first threshold value and the power ratio is less than the second threshold value, the cleaning robot goes to a low power mode in step S51, and if the voltage value is greater than or equal to the first threshold value and the power ratio is greater than or equal to the second threshold value, the cleaning robot goes to normal operation in step S52.
In this embodiment, the current electric quantity value is corrected according to the relationship between the voltage value and the current electric quantity value, so as to obtain a more accurate current electric quantity value, and whether the cleaning robot enters a low energy mode or a state where the cleaning robot normally works is determined according to the obtained voltage value and the obtained electric quantity ratio, so that the accuracy of monitoring the energy stored in the energy supply part 30 by the robot can be improved, the cleaning robot is prevented from being replenished when the energy is exhausted or not replenished in the operation process, the energy supply part 30 is prevented from being damaged, and the user experience is further improved.
In some embodiments, please refer to fig. 9, fig. 9 is a flowchart illustrating an abnormal operation state of the cleaning robot according to an embodiment of the present invention. The specific method for acquiring the voltage value in step S20 and the electric quantity ratio in step S60 in this embodiment is the same as that in the previous embodiment. The difference is that if the voltage value is greater than or equal to the first threshold value and the electric quantity ratio is less than the second threshold value, the voltage value is continuously increased in step S53, the electric quantity ratio is continuously decreased to reach a third threshold value, and the cleaning robot is in an abnormal working state in step S54, where the third threshold value may be time or the number of times of collection, and the abnormal working state is a situation where the cleaning robot is stuck or trapped. When the cleaning robot is in an abnormal working state, the cleaning robot may prompt a user by emitting voice, indicating light, or transmitting information to the mobile terminal through a wireless network.
In this embodiment, through cleaning robot under the normal operating condition, the relation of change that exists between the voltage value that obtains in succession and the current electric quantity value judges cleaning robot whether be in normal operating condition, improves the intelligence of robot, promotes user experience.
In other embodiments, the cleaning robot enters a low energy mode, the cleaning robot looks for a charging dock to charge the energy providing component 30, the cleaning assembly 60 stops, the fan assembly stops, or both the cleaning assembly 60 and the fan assembly stop before the cleaning robot returns to the charging dock to charge. To further reduce the consumption of the energy supplied by the energy supplying part 30 and to avoid the energy exhaustion crash of the cleaning robot in the process of returning to the charging stand.
