The specific embodiment
The invention provides a kind of cleaning systems (ADCCS) of high-level data control.This ADCCS provides a kind of system of clean surface of novelty.This system monitors and controls cleaning effect with senior IT function.Owing to guarantee that cleaning effect is improved, this system can prevent the propagation of bacterium, virus or other pollutions.In the mechanism such as hospital, a large amount of patients and staff are subjected to the influence of various infectious agents easily.By improving cleaning effect and guaranteeing that each room obtains suitable cleaning, ADCCS pair of disease that produces with hospital struggled and had appreciable significant contribution.Except in hospital environment for the individual provides security context, ADCCS also by reducing because the propagation of bacterium, virus or other pollutions in hospital causes that the possibility of infection has reduced liability exposure.
ADCCS has some parts.Basic part is an intelligent flat mop.This intelligent mop has two basic functions: the first, and it provides the uniqueness ID that in-house each flat mop can be discerned by IT system.
The second, it has adopted motion sensing, counts making flat mop can monitor clean cycle by the number of times that flat mop is dragged the face of sweeping the floor.Movable information can be used for determining when mophead needs extra cleaning solution, and when mophead itself should clean, and perhaps when mophead should be replaced by ADCCS.Certainly, it also makes system can monitor when cleaning is finished and where finished, and obtains suitable cleaning to guarantee mechanism.
In this preferred embodiment, motion-sensing is realized by oscillation gauge.Oscillation gauge is well-known in this technical field, therefore needn't add explanation more here.Oscillation gauge can guarantee that the room is thoroughly cleaned.For example, by oscillation gauge, can carry out Target/Actual comparison.Can sweep number of times for required the dragging of booking room cleaning and be defined as target.Deviation in certain tolerance will allow.Swing (promptly dragging the face of sweeping the floor) too much means to drag sweeps too.Though this does not damage cleannes, it has wasted user's time, thereby causes too much labor service expenditure.On the other hand, too few oscillations means that the room is not thoroughly cleaned.This threat that causes patient and worker to be subjected to bacterium, virus or other pollution spreads increases.In this case, the liability exposure of unit increases.This is a serious problem in the environment such as hospital, and it is dead owing to infected in hospital that many people are arranged every year.
In this preferred embodiment, intelligent mop has the embedding chip or the PC plate of communicating by letter with oscillation gauge and also being used for controlling the cleaning solution dispensing.Cleaning solution is sprayed onto from fluid reservoir and wants on the clean Surface during common use.Flat mop after having swung predetermined time, will stop to spray, because need clean or change mophead.After cleaning or changing, sprinkler just reactivates.The personnel that work in this technical field can see that ADCCS can be structured to and makes that changing cleaning pad from mophead can be controlled by IT system control or flat mop itself.Alternative is that number of oscillations can be adjusted on flat mop, perhaps by the long-range adjustment of IT system.
Except monitoring cleaning effect, IT system can also be used to controlling according to schedule the replacing of each mophead.For example, each mophead can have unique identification sign indicating number separately, is rendered as RFID label or other suitable devices, can be used to monitor how long this mophead has used.So system can notify the user in the time will changing mophead.In order to ensure the quality of products, the mophead that the unique identification sign indicating number can be used to make system only allow to have the extra fine quality index can use.
