Fig. 1 is a block diagram of an ultrasonic detection circuit according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, the ultrasonic detection circuit is applied to a sweeping robot, and includes a controller 10, a drive shaping circuit 20, a signal processing circuit 40 and an ultrasonic signal transceiver 30; the output end PWM of the controller 10 is connected with the input end of the drive shaping circuit 20, and the output end of the drive shaping circuit 20 is connected with the input end of the signal processing circuit 40 and the input end of the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30; the output end of the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 is connected to the input end of the signal processing circuit 40, and the output end of the signal processing circuit 40 is connected to the first input end AD of the controller 10.
The controller 10 may be a single chip, a DSP or an FPGA. The controller 10 is configured to generate a pulse signal to the driving shaping circuit 20, and the driving shaping circuit 20 drives the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 to transmit an ultrasonic signal, i.e. an ultrasonic wave, to the ground according to the received pulse signal, wherein the transmission speed of the ultrasonic wave is 340 m/s.
The ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 has functions of transmitting and receiving ultrasonic waves, and may be an ultrasonic transceiver probe.
The signal processing circuit 40 is configured to generate an electrical signal corresponding to the ground type to the controller 10 according to the ultrasonic wave received by the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30, for example, generate a pulse signal corresponding to the ground type to the controller 10, so that the controller 10 can effectively identify the ground type according to the received electrical signal. The ground type is different, and the signal characteristics of the electrical signal generated by the signal processing circuit 40 are different.
The working principle of the ultrasonic detection circuit is as follows: during the operation of the sweeper robot, the output end PWM of the controller 10 outputs a pulse signal to the driving shaping circuit 20, and the driving shaping circuit 20 appropriately adjusts the pulse signal output by the controller 10, such as performing voltage conversion, current increase and waveform shaping, and then drives the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 to transmit ultrasonic waves to the ground, so as to detect the type of the ground through the transmitted ultrasonic waves, for example, detect whether the ground is a carpet or a tile. After reaching the ground, the ultrasonic waves are reflected back by the ground and received by the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30. In this embodiment, one path of the pulse signal output by the driving shaping circuit 30 is transmitted to the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 to drive the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 to emit ultrasonic waves to the ground, and the other path is transmitted to the controller 10 through the signal processing circuit 40.
The ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 transmits the ultrasonic waves reflected by the ground to the signal processing circuit 40, and the signal processing circuit 40 generates an electric signal corresponding to the type of the ground to the controller 10. The ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 can be arranged on the chassis of the sweeping robot, if the ground is a soft ground, the wheels of the sweeping robot sink into the soft ground, and the effective distance between the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 and the ground is shortened; if the ground is a hard ground, the wheels of the sweeping robot cannot sink into the hard ground. Therefore, different ground types have different effective distances from the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 to the ground, and therefore, the time for the ultrasonic wave to be emitted and reflected back by the ground is different, and therefore, the signal characteristics of the electrical signal generated by the signal processing circuit 40 are different, for example, if the electrical signal generated by the signal processing circuit 40 is a pulse signal, and if the ground types are different, the width of the pulse signal generated by the signal processing circuit 40 is different. The controller 10 can effectively identify the floor type according to the signal characteristics of the received electrical signal, for example, identify whether the floor is a tile or a carpet, and perform corresponding operations, for example, if the floor is a tile, the sweeping robot is controlled to perform sweeping and mopping operations, and if the floor is a carpet, the sweeping robot is controlled to sweep without mopping. So set up, come the accurate ground type that detects through ultrasonic detection circuit to control the robot of sweeping the floor according to the ground type and adopt the correct mode to clean ground, when guaranteeing that ground is clean and tidy, can reduce the damage on ground.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 may be disposed on a chassis of the sweeping robot, and the frequency of the pulse signal output by the controller 10 is set according to a vertical distance between the chassis of the sweeping robot and the ground; for example, assuming that the vertical distance between the chassis of the sweeping robot and the ground is 20mm, the controller 10 outputs a set of pulses with a fixed frequency at regular intervals, for example, outputs a set of pulses with a frequency of 300KHZ at every 4ms, where each set of pulses includes 6 pulses, and the interval between the front and rear pulse sets is 4 ms. Then, the transmission period T of the ultrasonic wave of 300KHZ is 100000/300000-3.3 ms, the time Ttotal of the group of pulses transmission is 3.3-6-19.8 ms, and the transmission speed of the ultrasonic wave is 340mm/ms, so the transmission distance S of the group of pulse signals is 19.8-340-6.732 mm. If the sweeping robot runs on the blanket, the wheels of the sweeping robot sink into the blanket by about 10mm, and the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 sinks into the chassis of the sweeping robot by 10mm, then the effective distance between the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 and the blanket is 20 mm; if the sweeping robot is operated on a hard floor such as a ceramic tile, since the wheels of the sweeping robot do not sink into the hard floor, the effective distance between the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 and the hard floor is 30 mm. In this way, even if a group of 6 pulse signals with the frequency of 300KHZ is transmitted, the distance traveled by the first group of pulse signals is 6.732mm, and if the floor is a carpet, the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 can work normally even if the carpet is pushed to the bottom case of the floor sweeping robot. That is, the frequency of the pulse signal output by the controller 10 can be set according to the vertical distance between the chassis of the sweeping robot and the ground, so as to ensure that the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 can work normally, and the whole circuit can accurately detect the type of the ground.
Alternatively, when the output PWM of the controller 10 outputs a pulse signal, the first input AD of the controller 10 outputs a high level as a start identifier of each group of pulse groups in advance by 1ms, and when the transmission of the pulse groups ends, the first input AD of the controller 10 delays by 1.2ms and then outputs a low level as an end identifier of each group of pulse groups.
According to the technical scheme, the controller 10 outputs a pulse signal to the driving shaping circuit 20, and the driving shaping circuit 20 drives the ultrasonic signal receiving and transmitting device 30 to transmit an ultrasonic signal to the ground; subsequently, the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 receives the ultrasonic signal reflected by the ground, and transmits the ultrasonic signal reflected by the ground to the signal processing circuit 40, the signal processing circuit 40 generates an electric signal corresponding to the ground type to the controller 10, so that the controller 10 can identify the ground type according to the signal characteristic of the received electric signal, and control the sweeping robot to perform a sweeping operation corresponding to the ground type.

The shaping circuit 202 is configured to shape the waveform of the pulse signal output by the driving circuit 201, and transmit one path of the shaped pulse signal to the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30, so as to drive the ultrasonic signal transceiver 30 to transmit ultrasonic waves to the ground; the other path is fed back to the controller 10 via the signal processing circuit 40.

In this embodiment, the ultrasonic detection circuit is further provided with a voltage stabilizing circuit 60, and the voltage stabilizing circuit 60 stabilizes a voltage of a power module 50 inside the sweeping robot to a preset voltage and supplies power to the driving chip U1, for example, after the voltage of 14V output by the power module 50 inside the sweeping robot is stabilized to 12V, the voltage stabilizing circuit supplies power to the driving chip U1, so as to ensure that the driving chip U1 operates normally. The power module 50 may be a rechargeable battery disposed inside the cleaning robot.
