Detailed Description
In the following description, for purposes of explanation and not limitation, specific details are set forth, such as particular system structures, techniques, etc. in order to provide a thorough understanding of the disclosed embodiments. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that the present disclosure may be practiced in other embodiments that depart from these specific details. In other instances, detailed descriptions of well-known systems, devices, circuits, and methods are omitted so as not to obscure the description of the present disclosure with unnecessary detail.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a control method of a cleaning apparatus, including:
s101, obtaining a track of continuous movement of the floor brush on the ground, wherein the track comprises a plurality of turning nodes, and each turning node is a turning point of the reversely moving floor brush;
s102, taking the starting point of the track as a first turning node, calculating a first cleaning area of the brush moving from the first turning node to a second turning node and a second cleaning area of the brush moving from a third turning node to a fourth turning node, and taking the fourth turning node as a new first turning node;
s103, calculating the overlapping area of the first cleaning area and the second cleaning area;
s104, calculating the proportion of the overlapping area to the first cleaning area;
and S105, comparing the proportion with a preset proportion threshold value, and automatically adjusting the working state of the cleaning equipment based on the comparison result.
In particular, the cleaning device may be a power mop, a vacuum cleaner, a floor scrubber or the like, the floor brush being one of the cleaning elements of the cleaning device, and generally the shape of the floor brush may be configured as a disc or a cylinder. If the floor brush is a disc, the center point of the disc can be regarded as the position of the floor brush to obtain the continuous moving track of the floor brush on the ground; if the floor brush is a cylinder, the center point of the cylinder can be regarded as the position of the floor brush to obtain the continuous moving track of the floor brush on the ground. For example, as shown in fig. 2, the ground brush is a cylinder, the center point of the cylinder axis is regarded as the position of the ground brush, and the ground brush is dragged to move along the trajectory of a → B → C → D, then A, B, C, D are the turning nodes of the ground brush respectively, where a1 is the starting point of the trajectory.
The turning node represents a turning position point at which the user changes the direction of the floor brush in a back-and-forth moving manner when dragging the floor brush for cleaning. For example, when a user uses the floor brush to mop the floor, the user firstly pushes the floor brush forwards and then pushes the floor brush backwards, and then the position point of the floor brush when the floor brush is changed from the forward movement to the backward movement is a turning node of the floor brush in the continuous movement process of the floor; and then, the user pushes the floor brush forwards again, and the position point when the floor brush is converted from the backward movement to the forward movement is another turning node in the floor-to-floor movement process of the floor brush.
In connection with fig. 2, the line segments of two adjacent turning nodes may represent that the user has completed one cleaning action in the track direction using the floor brush. For example, the line segments AB, BC, and CD correspond to a cleaning action, respectively, as indicated by the trajectory A → B → C → D in FIG. 2. Preferably, in the disclosed embodiment, the cleaning area traversed by the floor brush along the line segment AB is designated as a first cleaning area, S1, and the cleaning area traversed by the floor brush along the line segment CD is designated as a second cleaning area, S2.
Obviously, during the movement of the floor brush along the trajectory of a → B → C → D, the cleaning area of the line segment BC is also passed, which corresponds to the cleaning area corresponding to one cleaning action spaced between the second cleaning area and the first cleaning area. In practical applications, the first cleaning area and the second cleaning area may be calculated by one or more cleaning actions, or the first cleaning area and the second cleaning area may also be calculated without any cleaning actions, for example, a cleaning area where the floor brush passes along the line AB in fig. 2 is taken as the first cleaning area, and a cleaning area where the floor brush passes along the line BC is taken as the second cleaning area, which is not limited by the embodiment of the disclosure.
In a more detailed aspect, the overlap of the first cleaning area and the second cleaning area reflects the degree of overlap of the cleaning areas of the floor brush after a plurality of successive cleaning actions. Specifically, if the overlapping area is larger, the probability that the floor brush repeatedly moves back and forth in the same area is higher, which indicates that the probability that the cleaning effect of the floor brush in the area is not obvious is higher; conversely, the smaller the overlapping area, the smaller the probability that the floor brush repeatedly moves back and forth in the same area, which indicates that the possibility that the cleaning effect of the floor brush is insignificant in that area is smaller. Therefore, according to the embodiment of the disclosure, the working state of the cleaning device is adjusted by calculating the coincidence degree of the cleaning areas of the floor brush passing through different steering nodes in the continuous moving process, so that the working state of the cleaning device can change along with the movement action of the floor brush on the ground in a self-adaptive manner, the trouble of manually adjusting the working state of the cleaning device in the cleaning process is avoided, the user operation is simplified, and the cleaning device is more intelligent.
In some embodiments, the obtaining of the track of the continuous movement of the floor brush on the floor according to the control method of the cleaning apparatus provided in fig. 1 includes: establishing a coordinate system by taking the starting point of the track of the movement of the floor brush as an origin; acquiring the direction, the angular speed and the mileage of the ground brush moving on the ground; determining a turning node of the moving track based on the orientation; calculating the coordinates of the steering nodes based on the angular speed and the mileage; and generating a track of the ground brush moving along the steering node in a straight line based on the coordinates of the steering node.
Specifically, taking the cleaning device as a dust collector as an example, the shape of the ground brush is a cylinder, as shown in fig. 2, the central point of the cylinder axis is taken as the position of the ground brush, the position of the ground brush contacting each time is taken as an origin, a two-dimensional coordinate system taking the cylinder axis direction as an X axis is established, the Y axis direction is perpendicular to the axis direction, and the plane where the X axis and the Y axis are located is parallel to the ground, so that when the ground brush continuously moves on the ground, the origin is equivalent to the starting point of the track of the ground brush movement.
In practical application, a magnetic induction sensor, an angular velocity sensor and an encoder can be arranged on the floor brush to correspondingly acquire the moving direction, the angular velocity and the mileage of the floor brush.
The method comprises the steps of determining a turning node of the floor brush in the continuous movement process on the ground according to the orientation of the floor brush, and specifically realizing the steps of calculating the orientation component of the floor brush in the Y-axis direction based on the established two-dimensional coordinate system, and determining the turning node according to the change of the orientation component. For example, as shown in fig. 2, during the movement of the floor brush along the line segment AB, the azimuth component of the floor brush in the Y-axis direction is calculated to be positive, and when the floor brush moves to the point B and turns to move along the line segment BC, the azimuth component of the floor brush in the Y-axis direction becomes negative, so as to determine the point B as the turning node; similarly, when the ground brush moves to the point C and then moves along the line segment CD, the azimuth component of the ground brush in the Y-axis direction becomes positive again, and at this time, the point C at the position is determined to be the turning node.
With continued reference to fig. 2, the direction and angle of the movement of the floor brush relative to the two-dimensional coordinate system can be calculated by the angular velocity of the floor brush, and the mileage is the actual movement displacement of the floor brush. Then, if the user pushes the floor brush to move along the trajectory of a → B → C → D, let a be the origin of coordinates (0,0), the length of the floor brush be t, the length vectors of the line segments AB, BC, CD be r1, r2, r3, the angle between the line segment AB and the positive direction of the X axis be α, the angle between the line segment BC and the positive direction of the X axis be β, and the angle between the line segment CD and the positive direction of the X axis be γ, then, in combination with the angular velocity and the mileage at which the floor brush moves, it can be calculated:
the coordinates of A are (0, 0);
b is (r1 × cos α, r1 × sin α);
the coordinates of C are (r1 × cos α + r2 × cos β, r1 × sin α + r2 × sin β);
d is plotted as (r1 × cos α + r2 × cos β + r3 × cos γ, r1 × sin α + r2 × sin β + r3 × sin γ).
After the coordinates of the turning nodes A, B, C and D are obtained through calculation, vectors of two adjacent turning nodes can be calculated, and a vector sequence of the moving track of the ground brush can be generated:
Figure BDA0003773567380000061
it should be noted that the generated ground brush movement track is a straight line track moving along the turning nodes, and the actual movement track of the ground brush between two adjacent turning nodes may not be a straight line but a broken line. For example, the actual trajectory of the brush moving from turning node a to turning node B may be a broken line, not a straight line, since the angular velocity may change while the brush is moving from turning node a to turning node B, although the azimuth is in the same direction. However, whether the actual movement trajectory of the floor brush is a straight line or a broken line, the coordinates of the turning node B point can be calculated from the distance traveled and the angular velocity. In the embodiment of the disclosure, the mileage vector of two adjacent turning nodes is calculated to be used as the moving track of the floor brush, so that the calculation amount of the subsequent cleaning area can be simplified, and a large error can not be caused when the overlapping area is finally calculated.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the starting point of the track of the ground brush movement is used as the origin, the coordinate system is established, the direction, the angular speed and the mileage of the ground brush movement are combined, the turning nodes in the ground brush movement process can be accurately identified, the coordinates of each turning node are calculated, and the track of the ground brush movement can be quickly generated by using the coordinates of the turning nodes.
In some embodiments, calculating a first swept area of the brush moving from the first turning node to the second turning node comprises: acquiring coordinates of a first steering node and a second steering node; based on the shape of the floor brush, the area of the plane where the floor brush moves straight from the first turning node to the second turning node is calculated and taken as the first sweeping area.
Specifically, in the case where the ground brush is cylindrical, referring to fig. 2, the cleaning region linearly moving from the first turning node a to the second turning node B is a parallelogram, wherein, assuming that the length of the ground brush is t, the coordinates of the first turning node a are (0,0), and the coordinates of the second turning node B are (r1 × cos α, r1 × sin α), the area of the parallelogram is taken as the first cleaning area and is labeled as S1, then the first cleaning area can be calculated:
S1=r1*sinα*t。
next, calculating a second swept area for the scrubber to move from the third steering node to the fourth steering node, comprising:
coordinates of a third steering node and a fourth steering node are obtained;
and calculating the plane area of the floor brush linearly moving from the third turning node to the fourth turning node based on the shape of the floor brush, and taking the plane area as the second cleaning area.
Similarly, in the case where the ground brush is shaped as a cylinder, referring to fig. 2, the cleaning region linearly moving from the third turning node C to the fourth turning node D is another parallelogram, where the coordinates of the third turning node C are (r 1+ r2 + cos β, r 1+ r2 + sin β) and the coordinates of the fourth turning node D are (r 1+ r2 + cos β + r 3+ cos γ, r 1+ sin α + r2 + sin β + r 3) and the another parallelogram is used as a second area and is labeled S2, then the second cleaning area can be calculated:
S2=r3*sinγ*t。
in some embodiments, calculating the area of coincidence of the first swept area and the second swept area comprises: calculating all vertex coordinates of the shapes of the first cleaning area and the second cleaning area; and determining the coincidence area of the first cleaning area and the second cleaning area based on the vertex coordinates.
In practice, the implementation of calculating the overlapping area of two known shapes is not exclusive, and a specific embodiment of calculating the overlapping area S0 of sweeping area S1 and second sweeping area S2 is given herein in conjunction with fig. 2.
Referring to fig. 2, the shape of the floor brush is a cylinder, and the first cleaning area S1 and the second cleaning area S2 are both parallelograms, wherein four vertices of the parallelogram of the first cleaning area S1 are respectively a, b, c, and d, and four vertices of the parallelogram of the second cleaning area S2 are respectively e, f, g, and h. Then, it can be calculated:
the coordinate of a is (-t/2, 0);
the coordinate of b is (t/2, 0);
c is (r1 × cos α + t/2, r1 × sin α);
d has the coordinates of (r1 × cos α -t/2, r1 × sin α);
e is represented by (r1 × cos α + r2 × cos β -t/2, r1 × sin α + r2 × sin β);
f is (r1 × cos α + r2 × cos β + t/2, r1 × sin α + r2 × sin β);
g is (r1 × cos α + r2 × cos β + r3 × cos γ + t/2, r1 × sin α + r2 × sin β + r3 × sin γ);
the coordinates of h are (r1 × cos α + r2 × cos β + r3 × cos γ -t/2, r1 × sin α + r2 × sin β + r3 × sin γ).
In addition, the intersection of the quadrangles of the first cleaning area S1 and the second cleaning area S2 can be determined by calculating the intersection of the two line segments of the four sides ab, bc, cd, and da of the quadrangle where the first cleaning area S1 is located and the four sides ef, fg, gh, and he of the quadrangle where the second cleaning area S2 is located.
For example, assuming that x1 ═ r1 ═ cos α + r2 × (β -t/2), y1 ═ r1 × (α + r2 ×) sin β, and x2 ═ r1 ═ cos α + r2 × (β + r3 × (γ -t/2), and y2 ═ r1 × (α + r2 × (β + r 3) × (γ) the coordinates of the two vertices e and h are reduced to (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), respectively, then the straight line equation for he can be obtained as:
y=(y2-y1)*x/(x2-x1)+(y1-y2)*x1/(x2-x1)+y1;
wherein, assuming that K1 is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), and B1 is (y1-y2) x1/(x2-x1) + y1, the he linear equation can be simplified as: y-K1 x + B1.
Similarly, assuming that x3 ═ r1 ═ cos α + t/2, y3 ═ r1 ═ sin α, x4 ═ r1 ═ cos α -t/2, and y4 ═ r1 ═ sin α, the coordinates of the two vertices c and d are simplified to (x3, y3) and (x4, y4), respectively, the cd linear equation can be obtained as:
y=(y4-y3)*x/(x4-x3)+(y3-y4)*x3/(x4-x3)+y3;
wherein, assuming that K2 is (y4-y3)/(x4-x3), and B2 is (y3-y4) x3/(x4-x3) + y3, the cd linear equation can be simplified as: y-K2 x + B2.
Next, the two equations are combined into a system of equations:
Figure BDA0003773567380000091
the coordinates of the intersection k of the two straight lines he and cd are obtained by calculating the solution of this equation system (1). Obviously, the coordinates of the intersection point j of the straight lines bc and ef can also be calculated by the same method as described above, and details are not described here.
Further, after the coordinates of the intersection points k and j are obtained, the coordinates of the four vertices e, j, c, and k of the quadrangle in which the overlapping area S0 is located are obtained. Then, the implementation of finding the area by using the vertex coordinates of an arbitrary quadrangle is not unique, and a specific implementation scheme is given below.
Let the coordinates of the four vertices e, j, c, k be:
e(x1,y1);
j(x6,y6);
c(x3,y3);
k(x5,y5);
where four vertices e, j, c, k can be connected in sequence to form an arbitrary quadrilateral ejck, and the quadrilateral ejck (area) ═ Δ abc +/Δ acd, then:
Δ abc (area) 1/2(x1y6+ x6y3+ x3y1-x1y3+ x6y1+ x3y 6);
Δ acd (area) 1/2(x1y3+ x3y5+ x5y1-x1y5+ x3y1+ x5y 3).
It can be seen that the overlapping area of any shape can be calculated by the specific implementation provided in the above examples.
In some embodiments, with respect to the control method of the cleaning apparatus provided in fig. 1, the working state of the cleaning apparatus includes a power gear, a rotational speed gear and a liquid injection gear of the motor in the cleaning apparatus, and the working state of the cleaning apparatus is automatically adjusted based on the comparison result, including: under the condition that the proportion is larger than or equal to a first proportion threshold value, increasing a power gear, a rotating speed gear or/and a liquid spraying amount gear of a motor in the cleaning equipment by one gear; reducing the power gear, the rotating speed gear or/and the liquid spraying amount gear of the cleaning equipment by one gear under the condition that the proportion is less than or equal to a second proportion threshold; under the condition that the proportion is smaller than the first proportion threshold and larger than the second proportion threshold, keeping a power gear, a rotating speed gear or/and a liquid spraying amount gear of a motor in the cleaning equipment unchanged; wherein the first proportional threshold is greater than the second proportional threshold.
Specifically, the power gear, the rotating speed gear and the liquid spraying amount gear can have a plurality of gears, and when the first gear needs to be increased according to the comparison result, if the gear of the current working state of the cleaning equipment is the highest gear, the current highest gear is kept; on the contrary, when the first gear needs to be lowered according to the comparison result, if the gear in which the current working state of the cleaning device is located is the lowest gear, the current lowest gear is kept.
In addition, the operating states to be set differ from cleaning appliance to cleaning appliance. For example, if the cleaning device is a dust collector provided with a floor brush, the power gear, the rotating speed gear and the like of a motor for controlling the suction force in the dust collector can be automatically adjusted based on the comparison result; if the cleaning equipment is an electric mop or a dust collector with a floor mopping function, the cleaning equipment is provided with a liquid spraying device, and a valve opening and closing gear, a hydraulic valve pressure gear and the like for controlling the liquid spraying amount of liquid spraying decoration in the cleaning equipment can be automatically adjusted based on the comparison result; if the cleaning equipment is a floor washer, some floor washers are simultaneously provided with a floor brush and a liquid spraying device, and the power gear of a motor for controlling suction force and the gear of the rotating speed of the motor in the floor washer can be automatically adjusted based on the comparison result, or/and the opening and closing gear of a valve for controlling the amount of liquid spraying decoration liquid in the floor washer and the pressure gear of a hydraulic valve can be automatically adjusted.
Specifically, the first ratio threshold and the second ratio threshold may be thresholds preset according to empirical data or experiments, or may also be new thresholds obtained by adjusting the set thresholds according to user data, which is not limited in this embodiment of the disclosure.
In some embodiments, the first proportional threshold is generally set between 50% -80%, for example, the first proportional threshold may be set at 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, etc.; while the second ratio threshold is typically set below 20% -45%, for example, the second ratio threshold may be set at 45%, 40%, 35%, 30%, 25%, 20%, etc. Preferably, in one embodiment, the first proportional threshold is set to 60% and the second proportional threshold is set to 30%.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 3, another control method of a cleaning apparatus is further provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, including:
s310, detecting the contact state of the ground brush and the ground in real time when the cleaning equipment works, wherein the contact state comprises a ground-contacting state and a ground-separating state;
s321, stopping executing the control method of the cleaning apparatus in fig. 1 when the floor brush is in the ground-off state, and returning to S310;
s322, under the condition that the floor brush is in the ground contact state, judging whether the floor brush is away from the ground and then contacts the ground;
s3221, if yes, re-determining the track starting point of the movement of the ground brush, starting to execute the control of the cleaning equipment, and returning to S310;
