Automatically the preset value of the minor increment between working equipment 1 and the boundary line 3 is set to and satisfies following condition: in the steering procedure of automatic working equipment 1; can keep walking; thereby halt or fall back when having avoided automatic working equipment 1 to turn to; saved the time; avoided frequent startup and shutdown also to save electric power; reduce the charging times of automatic working equipment, thereby improved the work efficiency of automatic working equipment greatly.Aforesaid routing form also can improve the wheel efficiency of automatic working equipment 1 in the perform region, particularly can walk out the narrow range in the perform region efficiently.Aforesaid routing form, make automatic working equipment 1 when the identical perform region of processing area, no matter how are the shape of perform region, the obstacle in the perform region or work complexity, the time that automatic working equipment 1 is finished the work is similar, for the present invention, this is important.Certainly, can satisfy automatic working equipment 1 when the identical perform region of processing area, the time of finishing the work is that the path planning mode of similar this condition is not unique, the automatic route that can once pass by by the GPS position the record of working equipment for example, when working equipment is walked automatically, the route of as far as possible avoiding repeated rows to pass by, thus improved the wheel efficiency of automatic working equipment in the perform region, for the identical perform region of area, the time of finishing the work is similar.Also have other path planning mode, do not give unnecessary details one by one at this.
See also Fig. 8, the control method of automatic working equipment 1 provided by the invention may further comprise the steps:
Step S0: system start-up.The user when using automatic working equipment 1, by user interface 16 start-up systems, carries out the initialization of system first, and initialization comprises every self-examination of automatic working equipment 1, for example dump energy of energy-storage module 142 or the like.During system start-up, working equipment 1 preferably is on the bus stop 5 automatically, if the dump energy deficiency of energy-storage module 142 is charged by 5 pairs of energy-storage modules 142 of bus stop.
Step S1: the area information of obtaining the perform region.Automatically working equipment 1 is from bus stop 5, and 3 take a round around the perform region row along the boundary line, get back to bus stop 5 once more; Automatically the detection module 15 of working equipment 1 comprises the GPS module, and in the process of walking, the GPS module is measured the coordinate of each measurement point on the course automatically, and goes out the area of the perform region that each measurement point centers on by the coordinate Calculation that measures.For the perform region of shape comparison rule, the automatic coordinate on each summit that working equipment 1 also can be by the independent measurement perform region, and then calculate the area of perform region.
At this moment, the area information of perform region is obtained automatically by detection module 15, and certainly, area information also can perhaps be imported by the automatic working equipment 1 and the connecting interface of computer or other equipment by user interface 16 by manually importing.
Step S2: judge that area information is obtained and whether finish.When automatically working equipment 1 was got back to bus stop 5 once more, main control module 14 was judged as area information and obtains and finish, and controlled automatic working equipment 1 and stopped along the boundary line 3 walking.When artificial input area information, main control module 14 detects whether input validation signal of user interface 16, when detecting user interface 16 input validation signals, is judged as area information and obtains and finish.When judging that area information obtains when finishing, can carry out next step operation; If the judgement area information is also obtained do not finish, then continue to obtain the area information of perform region.
Step S3: processing area information.After the area information of the perform region that processing unit 141 reception detection modules 15 or user interface 16 provide, area information is handled, the main control module 14 that converts automatic working equipment 1 to can the recognition data form.
Step S4: formulate the working time plan according to default Scheduling Algorithm.Storage unit 142 stored preset work time plans, the preset work time plan is corresponding with the working area interval.For example, 600 square metres to 699 square metres perform region, corresponding working time plan is work 10 hours, 700 square metres to 799 square metres perform region, corresponding working time plan is work 15 hours.When the area of perform region is 720 square metres, processing unit 141 is compared area information with each area interval in the storage unit 142, the area of perform region is greater than 700 square metres and less than 800 square metres, then processing unit 141 reads the interval 700 square metres of work programs to 800 square metres of correspondences of working area, and the working time plan of formulating this task is work 15 hours.The preset work time that provides in present embodiment in the works, and is easy in order to narrate, and only listed two area intervals for example, and the area interval of each perform region is 100 square metres; In fact, the number in area interval can be more, and the area interval also can be other values beyond 100 square metres.For example the working area scope of working equipment 1 is 0 square metre to 1500 square metres automatically, when each area interval is 100 square metres, can be divided into 15 area intervals; Automatically the working area scope of working equipment 1 is 0 square metre to 2000 square metres, when each area interval is 100 square metres, can be divided into 20 area intervals; Automatically the working area scope of working equipment 1 is 0 square metre to 1500 square metres, when each area interval is 50 square metres, can be divided into 30 area intervals; Automatically the working area scope of working equipment 1 is 0 square metre to 2000 square metres, when each area interval is 50 square metres, can be divided into 40 area intervals.
In addition, default Scheduling Algorithm also can be that to be stored in the storage unit 142 be the preset function of variable with the area information, processing unit 141 is with the described preset function of area information substitution that receives, calculate the required time of finishing the work according to described preset function, from described storage unit 142, read the working time plan of described correspondence as a result, formulate the working time plan of task for this reason.
Further, the working time plans to carry out respectively in a plurality of unit interval, comprises the sub-working time plan that a plurality of cycles are identical, the length in each cycle unit interval can be set as required, for example each cycle unit interval is 8 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours or the like; In each cycle unit interval, the duty duration of working equipment 1 can be identical automatically, also can be different.In the present embodiment, when working equipment 15 hours working time of 1 execution work plans automatically, work in its first day finishes to enter dormant state after 7 hours, finish to enter dormant state after 5 hours work in second day, work in the 3rd day 3 hours, finish the work, in each cycle unit interval, the duration of duty successively decreases.
Further, the working time plan comprises first working time plan and servicing time plan, when working equipment 1 is worked in the perform region for the first time automatically, is brand-new work, and workload is bigger, so consuming time longer; After finishing first task, spend less time maintenance work effect every day.The servicing time plan begins to carry out after first task is finished, and comprises the working time plan in a plurality of cycles unit interval.In the present embodiment, after working equipment 1 is finished first working time plan automatically, carry out the servicing time plan, worked every day 2 hours.
Preset work time plan or formula are according to the automatic path planning mode of working equipment 1, through experiment or set up that model draws.Choose comparatively loose data when formulating the preset work time plan, for example under this path planning mode, in perform region of the same area, finish the work required maximum time, thereby guarantee in all cases, can both finish overwhelming majority work.
Step S5: execution work period planning.Automatically working equipment 1 is planned to enter duty at preset time according to the working time after obtaining the working time plan, and at the preset time state of deactivating, enters dormant state.
See also Fig. 9, the control method of the automatic working equipment 1 that second embodiment of the invention provides may further comprise the steps:
Step S10: system start-up.The start-up course of system is identical with first embodiment in the second embodiment of the invention, is not repeated in this description at this.
Step S11: judge whether to enter the self study pattern.Automatically working equipment 1 is after startup, judge whether to enter the self study pattern, for example the processing unit 141 of working equipment 1 detects when existing the working time to plan automatically, judges that automatic working equipment 1 need not to enter the self study pattern, carries out this working time plan; Automatically the processing unit 141 of working equipment 1 detects when not existing the working time to plan, and enters the self study pattern.Automatically whether working equipment 1 also can change and judge whether to enter the self study pattern by detecting himself geographic location, when the geographic position at automatic working equipment 1 place does not change, automatically working equipment 1 does not enter the self study pattern, when the geographic position at working equipment 1 place changes automatically, enter the self study pattern.Automatically working equipment 1 also can judge whether to enter the self study pattern by the time interval of detecting between its this on time and on time last time, when time interval during greater than predetermined value, automatically working equipment 1 enters the self study pattern, when time interval during less than predetermined value, working equipment 1 does not enter the self study pattern automatically.
In addition, working equipment 1 can also judge whether to enter the self study pattern according to the information that the user imports by user interface 16 automatically, and when the user selected to enter the self study pattern by user interface 16, working equipment 1 entered the self study pattern automatically; When the user selected not enter the self study pattern by user interface 16, working equipment 1 did not enter the self study pattern automatically.
Step S12: enter the self study pattern.Automatically working equipment 1 enters the self study pattern, and under the self study pattern, working equipment 1 does not carry out the setting of working time plan automatically, from bus stop 5, according to default path planning mode, walking work in the perform region.Detection module 15 detects the job information of automatic working equipment 1, and job information can comprise one or more in working time that automatic working equipment 1 moves, walking mileage, operating load, walking path or the like under the self study pattern.
Step S13: judge whether to withdraw from the self study pattern.Detection module 15 comprises current detecting unit, the load current of testing module 12, processing unit 141 compares the preset value of the storage in detected load current and the storage unit 142, if in a period of time, the load current of operational module 12 is all the time less than preset value, processing unit 141 judgment task modules 12 do not have load in long-time, control automatic working equipment 1 and withdraw from the self study pattern.
Automatically working equipment 1 also can judge whether withdraw from the self study pattern by out of Memory.When for example working equipment 1 is automatic mower automatically, detection module 15 comprises the feeler of the bottom that is arranged on automatic mower, feeler detects the contact information of the bottom of grass and automatic mower, if in a period of time, feeler does not detect activation signal all the time, processing unit 141 thinks that work finishes, and the control automatic mower withdraws from the self study pattern.When automatic working equipment is automatic cleaner, detection module 15 can detect the recruitment of dust in the dust collect plant, in a period of time, if sensor does not detect the increase of dust all the time, processing unit 141 thinks that the work of automatic cleaner finishes, and the control automatic cleaner withdraws from the self study pattern.In addition, working equipment 1 can also pass through camera automatically, and infrared sensor or the like judges whether withdraw from the self study pattern, does not enumerate one by one at this.
Automatically judge whether withdraw from the self study pattern by automatic working equipment 1 as mentioned above, certainly, it also can be controlled by user interface 16 by the user, when the user judges that automatic working equipment 1 need withdraw from the self study pattern, press corresponding button on the user interface 16, working equipment 1 withdraws from the self study pattern automatically.
Step S14: record satisfies the job information when pre-conditioned.Automatically working equipment 1 satisfies when pre-conditioned, notes the job information of detection module 15 detected automatic working equipments 1, for example working time of moving under the self study pattern of working equipment 1, walking mileage, operating load, walking path or the like automatically.
Record satisfies the job information when pre-conditioned, can or withdraw from before withdrawing from the self study pattern after the self study pattern or carrying out in the self study pattern withdrawing from, so the order of step S13 and step S14 can be exchange or carry out simultaneously, but record always satisfy pre-conditioned this time point the time job information.
Step S15: handle the job information under the self study pattern.141 pairs of job informations of processing unit are handled, and the main control module 14 that converts automatic working equipment 1 to can the recognition data form.
Step S16: according to default algorithmization working time plan.Storage unit 142 stored preset work time plans, preset work time plan are corresponding with the job information of automatic working equipment 1 under the self study pattern.For example, working equipment 1 is under the self study pattern automatically, and the time that the work in the zone of finishing the work is used, corresponding working time plan was safeguarded for working every day in 2 hours in 10 hours-15 hours intervals; Finish the work time of using in 16 hours-20 hours intervals under the self study pattern, and corresponding working time plan was safeguarded for working every day in 3 hours.Working time under the self study pattern of noting is 12 hours, processing unit 141 is compared the working time with each time interval in the storage unit 142, the size of working time is greater than 10 hours and less than 15 hours, then processing unit 141 reads corresponding work program of interval 10 hours to 15 hours of working time, formulates the working time plan of this task and safeguards in 2 hours for working every day.
Certainly, the preset work time plan also can be corresponding with automatic working equipment 1 other job information under the self study pattern, the walking mileage that for example under the self study pattern, moves, processing unit 141 mileage of will walking is compared with each mileage interval in the storage unit 142, chooses corresponding work program as the working time plan of working equipment 1 automatically.
Certainly, the preset work time plan also can be with the job information of automatic working equipment 1 under the self study pattern in one or more corresponding, automatic one or more in the working time of working equipment 1 under the self study pattern, walking mileage, operating load, walking path or the like for example.
In addition, default algorithm also can be to be the formula of variable with the job information of automatic working equipment 1 under the self study pattern, processing unit 141 calculates the required time of finishing the work with the default formula of job information substitution that receives, and formulates the working time plan of task for this reason.
Step S17: execution work period planning.Automatically working equipment 1 is planned to enter duty at preset time according to the working time after obtaining the working time plan, and at the preset time state of deactivating, enters dormant state.
See also Figure 10, the control method of the automatic working equipment 1 that third embodiment of the invention provides may further comprise the steps:
Step S20: system start-up.The start-up course of system is identical with first embodiment in the third embodiment of the invention, is not repeated in this description at this.
Step S21: formulate the working time plan.Automatically working equipment 1 is formulated the working time plan after startup.The working time plan can be the method that adopts the first embodiment of the invention and second embodiment to provide, and formulates voluntarily by automatic working equipment 1.Automatically the plan of the working time of working equipment 1 also can be by user interface 16 by manually importing, perhaps import by the automatic working equipment 1 and the connecting interface of computer or other equipment.
Step S22: execution work.Automatically working equipment 1 is planned to enter duty at preset time according to the working time after obtaining the working time plan, and at the preset time state of deactivating, enters dormant state.
Step S23: obtain external information.Automatically the external information of working equipment 1 comprises the date, time, geographic coordinate, environmental information of himself position etc.In when work, the detection external information that detection module 15 is real-time; Detect external information and also can regularly carry out, for example working equipment 1 is carried out one-time detection at every turn when dormant state enters duty automatically; Perhaps automatically working equipment 1 at set intervals the cycle carry out one-time detection, for example every a week or one month, carry out one-time detection.
Detection module 15 comprises the GPS module, is obtained from the data such as geographic coordinate, time and date of the equipment of doing 1 self position of starting building by the GPS module.Detection module 15 also can comprise environmental sensor, detects the environmental information of automatic working equipment 1 self position; Environmental sensor can be temperature sensor and humidity sensor, detects the temperature information and the humidity information of automatic working equipment 1 position.
Step S24: judge whether external information is obtained and finish.When working equipment 1 obtains external information automatically, normally obtain with certain combination, when the GPS module is obtained from geographic coordinate, the time and date of the equipment of doing 1 self position of starting building, all obtain when finishing, judge that external information is obtained to finish when three data.During environmental sensor testing environment information, all obtain when finishing, be judged as external information and obtain and finish when the temperature and humidity data.
Step S25: handle external information.After the external information that processing unit 141 reception detection modules 15 provide, external information is handled, the main control module 14 that converts automatic working equipment 1 to can the recognition data form.
Step S26: according to default algorithm modification period planning.Storage unit 142 stored are the default plan for adjustment of benchmark with the working time plan.
It is different that different automatic working equipments is set up the foundation of working time plan plan for adjustment.
When automatic working equipment 1 was automatic mower, the plan for adjustment of storage unit 142 stored was set based on the growth rhythm of grass in 1 year in each area, the whole world, and these rules can be learnt by the meteorological statistics data.For example, the grass of CHINESE REGION, the speed of growth is in summer the soonest, next is spring, autumn, winter, grass growth was the slowest, then as shown in Table 1 at the plan for adjustment of storage unit 142 stored:
Table one
February-April May-July August-October November-January next year
100% 150% 90% 50%
Plan for adjustment in the table one is on the basis of the working time of automatic mower 1 plan, and the time of working in each unit interval be multiply by default coefficient, thereby increases or the minimizing working time.In Table 1, default coefficient is the form of number percent, and certainly, default coefficient also can be other form, for example decimal or function.
Time, date and geographic coordinate information that the GPS module that processing unit 141 receives detection module 15 provides, judge at first which zone automatic mower is in, for example the coordinate that is obtained from the position at motor mower place when the GPS module is east longitude 120 degree, north latitude 20 degree, date is when being June 1, processing unit 141 compares the global map data of geographic coordinate information and storage unit 142 stored, draws automatic mower and is in regional; Compare between each date field as shown in Table 1 of storage again with in the storage unit 142, the plan for adjustment of knowing automatic mower multiply by 150% on the basis of working time plan.For example automatic mower need be mowed 10 hours in the works the working time, and when automatic mower detected aforesaid external information, the mowing time of adjusting automatic mower was 15 hours.
In the default plan for adjustment that present embodiment provides, easy in order to narrate, be the interval with 3 months, this interval can be set according to needs, for example one month even shorter, the interval time that crosses over was short more, can be more accurate to the adjustment of the work of automatic mower.
Further, the automatic mower time plan for adjustment that can also begin to mow by change.Different regions in the different time in 1 year, the sunrise asynchronism(-nization), grass is can be relatively moist before sunrise, this is disadvantageous to mowing work.In default plan for adjustment, can add beginning the adjustment of the time of mowing.As the described plan for adjustment of table one: February-during April, do not change the start time of mowing; The May-during July, will mow 1 hour in advance start time because summer at sunrise between early; The August-during October, do not change the start time of mowing; When November-January next year, the start time of will mowing postpones 2 hours, because later at sunrise.Thereby avoided under the very moist situation of grass, mowing.
The plan for adjustment of storage unit 142 stored also can be set based on the growth rhythm under careless different temperatures and the different humidity situation, and these rules can be learnt by the meteorological statistics data equally easily.For example, greater than 20 degrees centigrade, humidity is the fastest greater than 30% o'clock speed of growth in temperature for grass, and then automatic mower can increase the mowing time accordingly by plan for adjustment; Grass is lower than 10 degrees centigrade in temperature, and it is the slowest that humidity is lower than 10% o'clock speed of growth, and then automatic mower can reduce the mowing time accordingly by plan for adjustment; Temperature humidity is between above-mentioned two intervals the time, and automatic mower is not adjusted the working time plan.
When working equipment 1 is automatic cleaner automatically, the plan for adjustment of storage unit 142 stored then can be set based on weather and the corresponding relation that forms between the airborne dust, for example by the detected external information of GPS module, processing unit 141 is judged the geographic position at automatic cleaner place, be easy to form airborne dust weather in the current time, then increase the dust suction time accordingly; The dust suction time when the current time is difficult for forming airborne dust weather, is reduced accordingly in geographic position when the automatic cleaner place.When obtaining external information by the environmental sensor detection, processing unit 141 is judged the position at automatic cleaner places, and whether the temperature and humidity situation is beneficial to the formation airborne dust, if temperature is higher, humidity is bigger, then is difficult for forming airborne dust, can reduce the dust suction time accordingly; If temperature is higher, humidity is lower, then is easy to form form, and can increase the dust suction time accordingly.The mode and the foregoing automatic mower of automatic cleaner adjustment working time plan are similar, are not repeated in this description at this.
Step S27: carry out amended working time plan.Automatically working equipment 1 was planned to enter duty at preset time according to the amended working time, and at the preset time state of deactivating, entered dormant state.
In the present embodiment, working equipment 1 obtains external information automatically by detection module automatically, and in addition, working equipment 1 also can be adjusted parameter by the manual input working time plan of user by user interface 16 automatically.
Automatically on the user interface 16 of working equipment 1 the adjustment button is set, for example increase and reduce work duration button, when the user selects to increase work duration button, processing unit 141 receives the input information that user interface 16 provides, it is handled, read corresponding adjustment parameter from storage unit 142; When for example the user selected once to increase work duration button, the plan for adjustment of correspondence was for the working time of increase by 10%, and when user's Continuous Selection twice, corresponding plan for adjustment is the working time of increase by 20%; When the user selected once to reduce work duration button, the plan for adjustment of correspondence was for the working time of minimizing 10%, and when user's Continuous Selection twice, corresponding plan for adjustment is the working time of minimizing 20%.Equally, the user also can regulate the time that automatic working equipment 1 is started working easily by user interface 16.
Certainly, the control method of the automatic working equipment that third embodiment of the invention provides, can be applied on the automatic working equipment that the working time plan need manually be set, also can be applied on the automatic working equipment that need not manually to be provided with the working time plan, particularly the control method of the automatic working equipment that provides with first embodiment of the invention and second embodiment of the invention is used in combination.
