Example one
An embodiment of the present invention provides a floor mopping control method, where a flow of steps of the method may be as shown in fig. 1, and the method includes:
step 101, determining a mopping mode.
The execution body of the present embodiment may be understood as a robot controller of the cleaning robot. The present embodiment can be applied to any cleaning robot with a floor mopping function, and in a possible implementation, the cleaning robot can also have other functions, such as a floor sweeping function. The cleaning robot with the sweeping and mopping functions can sweep and mopping the floor simultaneously or respectively.
In this step, a mopping mode corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot can be determined, and each mopping mode corresponds to a mopping mode with different cleaning force.
That is, in this embodiment, in consideration of that different areas require different cleaning forces when mopping the floor, in order to optimize the floor mopping effect of the cleaning robot, a plurality of floor mopping modes may be set for the cleaning robot to correspond to the floor mopping modes with different cleaning forces, so that the floor mopping may be performed for different areas by using different floor mopping modes to optimize the floor mopping effect.
It should be noted that, in one possible implementation, each mopping mode may be different in at least one of the following parameters: the water temperature of the water tank, the movement mode of the cleaning cloth and the traversing mode of the cleaning robot.
It can be understood that, the temperature of the water that carries out the humidification to the rag when considering mopping is different, and clean dynamics is also different, and the temperature is higher, and the soil removal ability is stronger, and clean dynamics is big more, consequently can be according to the needs of clean dynamics, sets up corresponding water tank temperature.
In this embodiment, the water tank temperature may be increased by adding a water tank heating module to the cleaning robot. And in a possible implementation mode, the water tank heating module can improve the water temperature of the water tank and realize the integration of charging of the cleaning robot, so that the structure of the cleaning robot is simplified, and the increase of the size of the cleaning robot is reduced.
It can be understood that, in this embodiment, can reach through the heating of the water in the water tank through the setting of water tank temperature, through the hot water softening spot when mopping, strengthen mopping clean dynamics, improve mopping cleanliness's effect.
In addition, the cleaning force is different due to the fact that the cleaning cloth is different in movement modes, the higher the freedom degree of movement of the cleaning cloth is, the stronger the friction vibration is, and the larger the cleaning force is, so that the corresponding movement mode of the cleaning cloth can be set according to the requirement of the cleaning force.
In this embodiment, the movement mode of the cleaning cloth may be controlled by a cleaning cloth movement driving module added to the cleaning robot, and the cleaning cloth movement driving module may be any module that can drive the cleaning cloth movement, such as a mechanism movement module, a vibration motor module, or an ultrasonic vibration module.
It should be noted that the number of the rag driving modules can be one or at least two, so as to better drive the movement of the rag arranged on the rag mounting plate and enhance the decontamination effect of the rag.
Taking the cleaning cloth driving module as at least two ultrasonic vibration modules as an example, the movement mode of the cleaning cloth can be changed by changing the designated parameters of the ultrasonic vibration module, such as at least one of the ultrasonic vibration dimension, the ultrasonic vibration amplitude and the ultrasonic vibration frequency, for at least one ultrasonic vibration module, and of course, the movement mode of the cleaning cloth can also be static.
It can be understood that, in this embodiment, the movement mode setting through the rag, except being driven by the cleaning robot motion, can reach the effect that reinforcing mopping cleaning dynamics improves mopping cleanliness through the drive to the rag motion.
In addition, considering that the cleaning robot has different traversing modes when mopping the floor, the cleaning force is also different, the traversing times are more, the traversing is more complete, and the cleaning force is larger, for example, aiming at the traversing modes of straight line and oblique line intersection and multiple cleaning, the I-shaped complete traversing mode and the rapid large-area traversing mode, the cleaning force is reduced in sequence, so that the corresponding traversing modes of the cleaning robot can be set according to the requirement of the cleaning force.
The traversing mode of the cleaning robot can be realized by controlling a chassis walking mechanism of the cleaning robot.
It can be understood that, in this embodiment, the arrangement may be performed in a traversing manner of the cleaning robot, and the effects of enhancing the mopping force and improving the mopping cleanliness may be achieved by increasing the number of traverses and the completeness of the traverses.
In the embodiment, the water temperature of the water tank, the movement mode of the cleaning cloth and the traversing mode of the cleaning robot can be combined in any form to subdivide the mopping modes, so that more mopping modes are obtained, and the mopping effect is further optimized.
In addition, it should be noted that the floor mopping mode corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot may be implemented in any manner, for example, but not limited to, any one of the following manners:
the method comprises the steps of firstly, indicating to collect an environment image corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot, and determining a corresponding mopping mode according to the collected environment image;
determining the current position of the cleaning robot, and determining a corresponding mopping mode according to the preset corresponding relation between the mopping mode and the position;
and thirdly, determining a floor mopping mode corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot according to the received floor mopping instruction.
The mopping instruction can be sent by a user through a client, and can be understood that the mopping instruction carries mopping mode information, and a mopping mode corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot can be determined according to the mopping mode information.
Of course, determining the floor mopping mode corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot is not limited to the above manner.
And 102, mopping the floor.
In this step, the cleaning robot may be controlled to mop the floor in the area corresponding to the current location according to the determined floor mopping mode. It should be noted that the area corresponding to the current location may be set as needed.
Assume that the mopping mode is defined according to three parameters of the water temperature of the water tank, the movement pattern of the cloth, and the traversal pattern of the cleaning robot. The mopping mode is represented by 1, the corresponding mopping mode is that the water temperature of the water tank needs to be higher than 60 ℃, the movement mode of the cleaning cloth is two-degree-of-freedom ultrasonic vibration in the horizontal plane (X, Y and theta) (assuming that the cleaning cloth driving module is an ultrasonic vibration module), and the traversing mode of the cleaning robot is an I-shaped complete traversing mode.
And if the water temperature of the water tank is determined to be not more than 60 ℃, controlling the cleaning robot to walk to a charging point to charge through the control of the chassis walking mechanism so as to heat the water in the water tank by the water tank heating module. And when the water temperature of the water tank is determined to be higher than 60 ℃, the cleaning robot is controlled to return to the position where the cleaning robot is located before charging, and the floor mopping function is realized in the area corresponding to the position through controlling the ultrasonic vibration module and the chassis walking mechanism.
According to the scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, different mopping modes can be adopted for mopping the floor according to different areas, and the mopping effect can be optimized by adopting the mopping mode with larger cleaning force for mopping the floor according to the area with stubborn stains. Aiming at the region with lighter stains, the mopping mode with smaller cleaning force can be adopted to mop the floor, so that the effect of reducing energy consumption can be achieved while the mopping effect is ensured.
In addition, in the solution provided by the first embodiment of the present invention, in order to solve the problem that stains are stubborn and difficult to remove during mopping, it is creatively proposed that the cleaning force can be increased by increasing the water temperature of the water in the water tank and the movement driving of the cleaning cloth, so as to ensure the cleanliness of mopping the floor through a corresponding mopping mode.

The fifth embodiment of the present invention provides a floor mopping control method, where a schematic structural diagram of a cleaning robot applied in the method may be as shown in fig. 4, and the method may include, but is not limited to, a navigation host computer controller, a sensor unit, a robot controller, a chassis walking mechanism, a cleaning cloth mounting plate, a water tank heating module, and a cleaning cloth driving module.
Wherein the sensor unit may include, but is not limited to, at least one of a lidar sensor, an inertial navigation sensor, a odometer, an edge sensor, a fall sensor, a cliff sensor, a collision sensor, a vision sensor, and the like.
Each sensor in the sensor unit can acquire corresponding data and send the acquired data to the navigation upper computer controller, so that the navigation upper computer controller can perform positioning and map building (i.e. SLAM map building and map building in the set environment) of the cleaning robot according to the data reported by the sensor unit, thereby enabling the robot controller to control the movement of a chassis walking mechanism of the cleaning robot through a control instruction according to the map built by the navigation upper computer controller and cleaning the cleaning robot in the set environment. The robot controller can control the movement of the chassis walking mechanism according to a set traversing mode.
It should be noted that, the navigation upper computer controller may also detect the motion feedback data of the chassis traveling mechanism through the sensor unit during the movement of the chassis traveling mechanism, so that the robot controller may adjust the control instruction for the chassis traveling mechanism according to the motion feedback data obtained by the navigation upper computer controller.
In the present embodiment, it may be assumed that the mopping mode is defined according to the water temperature of the water tank, the movement pattern of the cloth, and the traversal pattern of the cleaning robot.
In this embodiment, the cleaning cloth driving module is taken as an ultrasonic vibration module, that is, the movement of the cleaning cloth is driven by the ultrasonic vibration module.
In this embodiment, the rag mounting panel can include three parts, and an ultrasonic vibration module can be installed to every part of rag mounting panel, and the parameter of every ultrasonic vibration module can be adjusted alone to the motion of the rag of installing on the rag mounting panel is driven better. The cleaning cloth is driven by the three ultrasonic vibration modules, so that multi-degree-of-freedom movement can be realized, friction vibration at different angles is generated, and the decontamination effect is enhanced.
In the present embodiment, the parameters that each ultrasonic vibration module can change may include the ultrasonic vibration dimension, the ultrasonic vibration amplitude, and the ultrasonic vibration frequency. The ultrasonic vibration dimension of each ultrasonic vibration module may be selected by the robot controller, and the vibration dimension of each ultrasonic vibration module may include a combination of two-degree-of-freedom ultrasonic vibration in a horizontal plane (X, Y, θ) and vertical ultrasonic vibration in a Z-axis direction. And the ultrasonic vibration amplitude and the ultrasonic vibration frequency of each ultrasonic vibration module can be adjusted by the robot controller.
In addition, in this embodiment, the water in the water tank can be heated by the water tank heating module, and the robot controller can return to the charging point to charge by controlling the cleaning robot, and while charging, the water tank heating module is integrally realized to heat the water in the water tank.
The flow of steps of the method can be shown in fig. 5, and includes:
step 501, the cleaning robot is started.
In this step, the cleaning robot may be started.
Step 502, the cleaning robot performs SLAM mapping.
In this step, the navigation upper computer controller may start map building in the SLAM of the set environment (e.g., home environment) according to the data reported by the sensor unit.
Step 503, the cleaning robot determines the mopping mode.
In the present embodiment, only the floor mopping process of the cleaning robot will be described. If the cleaning robot further comprises a sweeping function, the mopping and sweeping of the cleaning robot can be carried out simultaneously or respectively.
In this step, the robot controller may determine a floor mopping mode corresponding to a current position of the cleaning robot.
The robot controller determines a floor mopping mode corresponding to a current position of the cleaning robot, and in a possible implementation manner, the robot controller may instruct a corresponding sensor (a visual sensor, such as a camera) to acquire an environment image corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot, and determine the corresponding floor mopping mode according to the acquired environment image.
For example, the collected environment image may include a bed, the current position of the cleaning robot is considered to be a bedroom, the cleaning robot may be generally cleaned according to the floor of the bedroom, stains are easily removed, and a floor mopping mode of corresponding cleaning strength is determined.
For another example, the environment image collected by the cleaning robot may include a seat sofa, the current position of the cleaning robot is considered as a living room, and a floor mopping mode with corresponding cleaning force may be determined according to the fact that a certain stain exists on the floor of the living room and is easy to remove.
For another example, the collected environment image may include a table chair, the current position of the cleaning robot is considered as a restaurant, and the floor mopping mode of the corresponding cleaning force may be determined according to that the floor of the restaurant is poor in cleanliness and the stain is difficult to remove.
For another example, the cleaning robot may include a pool cooking bench according to the collected environment image, and the current position of the cleaning robot is considered as a kitchen, so that the cleaning force may be increased according to the floor requirement of the kitchen, stains may be difficult to remove, and a floor mopping mode with the corresponding cleaning force may be determined.
The robot controller determines a floor mopping mode corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot, and in another possible implementation manner, the robot controller may also determine the current position of the cleaning robot through a corresponding sensor, and determine the corresponding floor mopping mode according to a preset corresponding relationship between the floor mopping mode and the position.
In a possible implementation manner, a corresponding relationship between each room and the floor mopping mode may be set in the established map, and if it is determined that the current position of the cleaning robot belongs to a certain room, the floor mopping mode corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot may be determined according to the floor mopping mode corresponding to the room.
For example, if it is determined that the current position of the cleaning robot belongs to a kitchen, the floor mopping mode corresponding to the kitchen may be determined as the floor mopping mode corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot.
It should be noted that, the robot controller determines the floor mopping mode corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot, and in another possible implementation, the floor mopping mode may also be determined according to a control instruction of the client.
For example, a user may send a floor mopping instruction to the robot controller through the client, where the floor mopping mode information carried by the floor mopping instruction may be that a floor mopping mode corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot is 2 (that is, a floor mopping mode represented by application 2), and at this time, the robot controller may determine, according to the received floor mopping instruction, that the floor mopping mode corresponding to the current position of the cleaning robot is the floor mopping mode 2.
Step 504, cleaning the robot mopping floor.
In this step, the robot controller may control the cleaning robot to mop the floor according to the determined floor mopping mode.
For example, if the determined floor mopping mode is that the water temperature of the corresponding water tank needs to be higher than 70 degrees centigrade, the movement mode of the cleaning cloth is that three ultrasonic vibration modules need to be utilized to drive the cleaning cloth to move, the ultrasonic vibration dimension of each ultrasonic vibration module is a composite vibration mode including two-degree-of-freedom ultrasonic vibration in the horizontal plane (X, Y, θ) and ultrasonic vibration in the vertical direction of the Z-axis direction, and the traversing mode of the cleaning robot is a traversing mode in which a straight line and an oblique line are crossed and the cleaning robot cleans for multiple times, then, in this step, the method may include:
the robot controller determines whether the water temperature of water in the water tank is higher than 70 ℃ or not through the sensor, if the water temperature is higher than 70 ℃, the control over the movement mode of the cleaning cloth can be achieved through the control over the three ultrasonic vibration modules, the chassis walking mechanism is controlled to walk in a traversing mode of straight line and oblique line crossing and multiple cleaning, and therefore the mopping is achieved.
If the robot controller determines that the water temperature of the water in the water tank is not more than 70 ℃ through the sensor, in a possible implementation manner, the chassis travelling mechanism can be controlled to travel to a charging point for charging, so that the water in the water tank is heated by the water tank heating module, and when the water temperature of the water in the water tank is determined to be more than 70 ℃ (the water temperature can be greater than a set temperature which is not less than 70 ℃ so as to ensure that the water temperature can be maintained above 70 ℃ for a long time), the position where the water is located before charging is returned, and the floor mopping function is realized in an area corresponding to the position through the control of the three ultrasonic vibration modules and the control of the chassis travelling mechanism.
And 505, judging whether the cleaning is finished by the cleaning robot.
In this step, the robot controller may determine whether cleaning of the entire set environment is completed according to the established map, and if the determination is completed, may continue to perform step 506, otherwise, may return to perform step 503.
