The boundary 2 may be a generic term for boundaries and obstacles. The boundary may be from the periphery of the operating range of the mobile device, may be physical, electronic, or may be in a non-existent form, i.e., may be defined by a wall, fence, or the like; virtual boundary signals, such as electromagnetic signals or optical signals, may also be emitted by the boundary signal generating means; or may be the case without any boundaries present. The obstacle is a part or area within the working area where walking is impossible, such as a sofa, a bed cabinet in the room, or a pool, a flower bed in the outside (such as the area surrounded by the boundary 2 within the working area in fig. 1), etc., and similarly, the obstacle may be physical or electronic, the physical obstacle may be formed by the aforementioned obstacle itself, and the electronic obstacle may be formed by the boundary signal generating means emitting a virtual obstacle signal. The virtual boundary signal and the virtual obstacle signal may be the same signal or different signals, and are selected according to specific requirements. The self-mobile device detects its position with the boundary by means of a boundary detector present in the self-device.
The self-moving device 1 can be an unattended device such as a self-propelled mower, a sweeping robot, an automatic snowplow and the like, and can automatically walk on the ground or the surface of a working range to mow, suck dust or sweep snow. Of course, the self-moving device 1 is not limited to a robotic mower, a robot for sweeping floor, and a snowplow, but may be any other device suitable for unattended operation, and the application is not limited thereto.
In the following embodiments of the present application, a self-moving device is described as a robotic lawnmower.
As shown in fig. 2, the mower 20 has a housing (not shown), and the mower 20 may further include a running gear 21, a work module 22, a power module 23, an energy module 28, a control module 24, a communication module 25, and a navigation mechanism 26. The control module 24 is connected to and controls the power module 23.
In this embodiment, the running gear 21 includes a wheel group and a running motor that drives the wheel group. There are a number of possible arrangements of the wheelsets. Typically the wheel set comprises driving wheels driven by the travelling motor and auxiliary wheels of the auxiliary support housing, the number of driving wheels may be 1, 2 or more, and the number of auxiliary wheels may be 1, 2 or more accordingly. In the present embodiment, the number of driving wheels of the mower 20 is 2, which are a right driving wheel located on the right side and a left driving wheel located on the left side, respectively. The right and left drive wheels are symmetrically disposed about a central axis of mower 20. The center of the auxiliary wheel is positioned on the central axis. The right and left drive wheels are preferably located at the rear of the housing and the auxiliary wheels are located at the front. Of course, in other embodiments the drive wheel and auxiliary wheel may be provided instead. In this embodiment, the right and left drive wheels are each coupled with one drive motor to achieve differential output to control steering. The drive motor may be directly connected to the drive wheel, but a transmission may also be provided between the drive motor and the drive wheel, such as a planetary gear train or the like as is common in the art. In other embodiments, 2 drive wheels and 1 drive motor may be provided, in which case the drive motor drives the right drive wheel via a first transmission and the left drive wheel via a second transmission. I.e. the same motor drives the right and left driving wheels via different transmission means.
The work module 22 is a mowing module, specifically a cutting member, such as a cutting blade. The working module 22 is driven to work by a cutting motor (not shown). The centre of the work module 22 is located on the centre axis of the mower 20, below the housing, between the auxiliary wheel and the drive wheel. The energy module 28 may optionally be used to power a mower, which may optionally charge the energy module 28. The energy source of the energy module 28 may be gasoline, a battery pack, etc., and in this embodiment the energy module 28 includes a rechargeable battery pack disposed within the housing. In operation, the battery pack releases electrical energy to maintain the mower 20 in operation and walking. The battery pack may be connected to an external power source to supplement power when not in operation. In particular, for a more humane design, when a battery pack under-run is detected, mower 20 automatically looks for a charging station to recharge. The power module 23 may include a motor and a transmission structure connected with the motor, where the transmission structure is connected with the running mechanism, the motor drives the transmission mechanism to work, and the transmission effect of the transmission mechanism makes the running mechanism move, and the transmission mechanism may be a worm gear mechanism, a bevel gear mechanism, etc. The power module 23 may be provided with two sets of motors, one set driving the running gear to move and the other set driving the working module 22 to work. It will be appreciated that the number of motors per group is not limited and may be, for example, one or two.
The control module 24 is, for example, a controller, which may be an embedded digital signal Processor (DIGITAL SIGNAL Processor, DSP), a microprocessor (Micro Processor Unit, MPU), an Application SPECIFIC INTEGRATED Circuit (ASIC), a programmable logic device (Programmable Logic Device, PLD) System On Chip (SOC), a central processing unit (Central Processing Unit, CPU), or a field programmable gate array (Field Programmable GATE ARRAY, FPGA), etc. The control module 24 is electrically connected to and controls the power module 23 to realize automatic walking and automatic operation of the mower 20.
The controller can control the work of the mower according to a preset program or an accepted instruction. Specifically, the controller can control the travelling mechanism to travel in a working range of the mower according to a preset travelling path, and the mower performs mowing and other works while the travelling mechanism drives the mower to travel. When the mower walks in the preset path and completes related work, the controller can control the mower to stop mowing work and control the travelling mechanism to walk, so that the travelling mechanism drives the mower to leave the working range. The walking path and the parking position of the mower can be set in the controller in advance, and the controller controls the walking mechanism to execute work.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a working method of a self-mobile device (in this embodiment, the self-mobile device is exemplified by a mower) according to an embodiment of the present invention, which specifically may include:
S301: a marker message is received from a remote terminal.
In one embodiment of the application, a self-mobile device may first receive a marker message sent by a remote terminal, which marker message may be used to select a plurality of target operating points located on a boundary. The remote terminal may include a hardware device having a data information processing function and necessary software required to drive the hardware device to operate; the system can receive a plurality of target working points sent by the client and send the target working points to the self-mobile equipment; and may provide a plurality of predetermined ports through which a plurality of target operating points provided by the client may be received and/or transmitted from the mobile device. For example, network data interactions with clients and/or self-mobile devices may be based on a network protocol such as HTTP, TCP/IP, MQTT, or FTP. Furthermore, when the connected network is a local area network, the remote terminal can also be a client capable of realizing communication and having a data receiving and transmitting function in the local area network.
In this embodiment, the client may be a terminal device capable of accessing a communication network based on a network protocol and having a device information acquisition function. Specifically, for example, the client may be a mobile smart phone, a computer (including a notebook computer, a desktop computer), a tablet electronic device, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), or a smart wearable device, etc. In addition, the client may be an APP (including mobile applications) running on any of the above listed devices that can control the operation of the self-mobile device, such as: sweep floor APP, mow APP, sweep snow APP, drag floor APP etc.
In one embodiment of the present application, the plurality of target operating points can correspond to a plurality of operating areas within the operating range, i.e., the plurality of target operating points located on the boundary can be starting points when the respective operating areas are entered from the boundary when mowing work is performed by the self-mobile device. When the self-moving equipment walks for the first time, the self-moving equipment does not enter the mowing area to work, but only marks the target working points corresponding to the working areas, and then returns to the charging station. For a self-mobile device, the target operating point represents the initial operating point when the work is performed after starting from the charging station and entering into the respective area.
In this embodiment, a plurality of target operating points located on the boundary may be selected during walking from the initial operating point along the boundary by the mobile device. Meanwhile, when the self-mobile equipment is in a working state or a non-working state, a plurality of target working points and working schedules can be set in advance remotely, so that the automatic working of the self-mobile equipment can be realized even if the user is not at home. And when each target working point is selected, recording the distance from the initial working point to the target working point along the limit. In one embodiment, the initial working point is a charging station, however, the initial working point may be other fixed position points, which is not limited in the present application.
As an implementation manner of this embodiment, in the process of walking along the boundary from the mobile device, when the mobile device moves to each target working point, the user may press the "mark" key in the mobile application to mark the corresponding target working point. After the mobile application receives the mark signal, the distance from the initial working point to each target working point of the machine can be calculated according to the walking time of the mobile equipment and the average speed of the walking mechanism. When the self-mobile device completes one circle along the limit, the mobile application sends a plurality of mark information related to the distance to the self-mobile device, the self-mobile device receives the plurality of mark information in the client side to select a target working point positioned on the limit, and the distance is recorded in the memory.
As another implementation manner of this embodiment, the start-stop operation of the self-mobile device may be controlled by a mobile application in the client for controlling the self-mobile device, where the self-mobile device may access the network through the wireless network. When moving from the mobile device to the corresponding target operating point, the user may press a "mark" key in the mobile application, receive mark information in the client from the mobile device, and select the target operating point located on the boundary. At this time, the self-mobile device can record the distance it walks from the initial working point and mark the position, and record the distance into the memory. When the self-moving equipment walks for the first time, marking target working points corresponding to all working areas, and recording the distance from the initial working points to all the target working points.
When the distance is determined, the self-moving equipment can be calculated according to the walking time and the rotating speed of the walking mechanism. It can also be calculated by using a displacement sensor in the mobile device in combination with a gyroscope or a nine-axis sensor for detecting the angle.
In one embodiment of the application, selecting a plurality of target operating points located on the boundary may include:
s1-1: a map of the working range is obtained.
In one embodiment of the present application, a plurality of beacons may be set on the boundary, and a map of the working range is determined by acquiring coordinate information of the beacons; alternatively, the positioning device may record coordinate information of the mobile device when walking around the limit, map the working range according to the coordinate information, and store the map in the memory of the mobile device. In another embodiment of the present application, a navigation mechanism 26 may also be included in the self-mobile device, the navigation mechanism 26 may be used to form a map of the operating range of the self-mobile device. In particular, the navigation mechanism may include, but is not limited to, at least one of: ultrasonic sensors, radar sensors, optical sensors (laser or infrared sensors, etc.), UWB sensors, inertial navigation systems, etc., may be used to provide environmental control data, control the operation of the robotic lawnmower, and to form a map of the operating range of the robotic lawnmower.
S1-2: calibrating a plurality of target working points in the map.
S1-3: and mapping a plurality of target working points calibrated in the map into the working range.
In one embodiment of the application, the self-mobile device can acquire a plurality of target working points calibrated in the map by a user, and can map the plurality of target working points calibrated in the map into the working range according to the position relationship between the map and the actual working range. Thus, the self-mobile device can then enter the corresponding work area for operation according to the marked respective target work points. Likewise, when the user selects to operate the self-mobile device in one of the plurality of operating areas, the self-mobile device can enter the corresponding operating area to operate according to the target operating point marked in the operating area.
As another implementation manner of the present application, there is a start button (the button is a physical or virtual button) on the self-mobile device that controls the self-mobile device to start walking, and after the button is pressed according to a preset requirement, the self-mobile device will start walking; and a Stop button (the button is a physical or virtual button) for controlling the mobile device to Stop walking, and after the button is pressed, the mobile device stops working. When the self-mobile device starts from the initial working point and walks to the target working point along the limit, the user can trigger a stop key on the self-mobile device, and at the moment, the self-mobile device can record the walking distance from the initial working point and mark the stop position, and the distance is recorded in a memory of the self-mobile device; when the starting key is pressed when the starting key needs to be started again, the self-mobile equipment continues to walk to the next target working point, the distance from the initial working point to the next target working point is recorded, the stopping position is marked, and the distance is recorded in the memory. Thus, when the user selects to operate the self-mobile device in one of the plurality of operating areas, the self-mobile device can enter the corresponding operating area to operate according to the target operating point marked in the operating area.
In this embodiment, a plurality of target operating points located on the boundary are acquired, the plurality of target operating points representing respective operating regions. And acquiring a plurality of target working points positioned on the limit, and controlling the self-moving equipment to work in each working area according to a plurality of working areas corresponding to the target working points, so that a user can select the target working points according to actual grassland conditions, cutting of grasslands is facilitated, and the overall working efficiency of the self-moving equipment is improved.
S302: a work schedule from the mobile device starting from each of a plurality of target work points is obtained.
In one embodiment of the present application, the work schedule from each of the plurality of target work points of the mobile device may be calculated by the mobile device based on the received plurality of target work points, in combination with location information obtained from a work area locally stored by the mobile device or when forming a map of the work area, or from a default work schedule setting in the mobile device, etc.
In another embodiment of the present application, the work schedule obtained from the mobile device starting from each of the plurality of target work points may be the case when the work schedule is received from a remote terminal.
In one embodiment of the application, the plurality of target operating points can represent a plurality of operating regions within an operating range. When the automatic mower works in the working range from each target working point in the plurality of target working points, the working areas of the working performed by each target working point can be overlapped or not. Preferably, there is no overlap between the determined plurality of working areas. In this way, the self-moving device can work independently in each working area, and mowing conditions in each working area are not influenced, so that uniform mowing of the self-moving device in each working area can be better realized.
