The following detailed description is made with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 1 to 4, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a sweeper 1 is provided. The sweeper 1 comprises a machine shell 10, a perspective structure 13, a TOF camera module 20 and a photoelectric conversion device 40. It is understood that the perspective structure in this embodiment may be a cover glass or a transparent plastic plate located in front of the TOF camera module 20, or may be a cover glass or a transparent plastic plate integrally provided with the TOF camera module 20.
Specifically, an installation cavity is arranged inside the casing 10, and a through hole 12 communicated with the installation cavity is arranged on the peripheral side wall of the casing 10; the perspective structure 13 is covered and arranged at the through hole 12; the TOF camera module 20 is mounted in the mounting cavity, and the TOF camera module 20 includes an emitting end 22, a receiving end 24, a control main board 21 and a perspective structure 13, wherein the emitting end 22 is electrically connected with the control main board 21, and the emitting end 22 is used for emitting light waves from the through hole 12 toward the outside of the housing 10; the photoelectric conversion device 40 is disposed in the mounting cavity and electrically connected to the control motherboard 21, and the photoelectric conversion device 40 is configured to receive a reflected light wave of the light wave emitted from the emitting end 22 and convert the reflected light wave into a current value. In actual use, the more reflected light waves the photoelectric conversion device 40 receives, the stronger the current value.
Because the emitting end 22 and the photoelectric conversion device 40 are arranged in the sweeper 1 in this embodiment, in the actual use process, the emitting end 22 can continuously emit light waves outwards from the through hole 12, the light waves can be subjected to diffuse reflection when encountering foreign matters such as dust and paper or obstacles 60, and the light waves emitted by the emitting end 22 can be reflected, in the process, the more the obstacles 60 and the foreign matters in front of the perspective structure 13 are, the more the light waves are reflected, the stronger the light energy is, the more the reflected light waves are received by the photoelectric conversion device 40, and the stronger the current value is.
In the process of actually using the sweeper 1, whether the obstacle 60 exists in front of the perspective structure 13 needs to be distinguished, when the sweeper 1 normally works and meets the obstacle 60, the control main board 21 controls the sweeper 1 to automatically turn, reflected light received by the photoelectric conversion device 40 is reduced after the turning, a current value is correspondingly reduced (as shown in fig. 5), and if the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 does not change within a period of time (as shown in fig. 6), diffuse reflection of the sweeper 1 after the turning is still not reduced, and at this time, foreign matters are attached to the surface of the perspective structure 13. That is, after the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 exceeds a predetermined value, the control main board 21 controls the sweeper 1 to change the moving direction, and as the sweeper 1 changes the moving direction, if the current value decreases, it is determined that the obstacle 60 is in front of the sweeper 1, and if the current value exceeds the predetermined value and continues for a predetermined time, it is determined that foreign matter is attached to the surface of the see-through structure 13. Therefore, the present invention can determine whether or not foreign matter exists on the surface of the see-through structure 13 by the duration of the intensity of the duration of the current value converted by the photoelectric conversion device 40.
When the returned light energy is increased due to the obstacle 60 in front of the sweeper 1, the current detected by the photoelectric conversion device 40 is increased, and when the current value is greater than the preset value, the control main board 21 of the sweeper 1 controls the sweeper 1 to automatically turn to avoid, so that the current value is reduced to be lower than the preset value; however, if the returned light energy is increased due to the adhesion of the foreign matter, the light energy cannot be decreased even after the sweeper 1 turns, so that the detected current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 is not less than the predetermined value and lasts for a long time, and therefore, the fact that the foreign matter is adhered to the surface of the see-through structure 13 of the sweeper 1 can be judged.
In summary, the sweeper 1 of the present invention can detect whether foreign objects exist on the surface of the perspective structure 13, so as to prompt the user to clean the foreign objects on the surface of the perspective structure 13 in time, and the obstacle avoidance function of the sweeper is not easily affected.
The housing 10 in this embodiment is provided in a columnar shape, and the housing 10 is provided in a columnar structure, so that other structures of the sweeper 1, such as the TOF camera module 20 and the photoelectric conversion device 40, can be conveniently installed. Alternatively, the housing 10 may be cylindrical, prismatic, elliptical or other shaped cylindrical arrangement. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the casing 10 is configured to be cylindrical, and at this time, the periphery of the casing 10 has no protruding edge, so that the indoor environment or the indoor user is not easily damaged in the process of steering the sweeper 1, and the user experience of the sweeper 1 can be improved.
In order to facilitate the operation and control of the sweeper 1, the housing 10 in this embodiment is provided with a control button 11, the control button 11 is electrically connected to the control main board 21, and when the control button 11 is controlled, a control program on the control main board 21 can be controlled. Alternatively, the control buttons 11 may be push-button buttons, touch buttons, or the like.
Further, the sweeper 1 further comprises a warning element 50, the warning element 50 is electrically connected with the control main board 21, and the warning element 50 is used for sending a warning signal when the current value on the photoelectric conversion device 40 exceeds a preset value for a preset time. When the warning element 50 generates a warning signal, it can prompt the user that foreign matters and/or dust exist on the surface of the see-through structure 13 and need to be cleaned.
Alternatively, the warning element 50 in this embodiment may be a speaker, a warning signal lamp, or the like. When the warning element 50 is configured as a speaker, the speaker can be disposed inside the housing 10 to prevent the external environment from interfering with the speaker. When the warning member 50 is provided as a warning signal lamp, the warning signal lamp may be provided on the upper surface of the casing 10 or on the peripheral side surface of the casing 10 as long as it is convenient for the user to view.
It is understood that the predetermined value of the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 in the present embodiment can be determined by testing the sweeper 1. In some embodiments of the present invention, the predetermined value is 70% to 90%, for example 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, or 90%, of the magnitude of the current value detected by the photoelectric conversion device 40 when there is the obstacle 60 in front of the sweeper 1, and the predetermined value is set to 70% to 90% of the magnitude of the current value detected by the photoelectric conversion device 40 when there is the obstacle 60 in front of the sweeper 1, so that the user can be prompted to clean the surface of the TOF camera module 20 (the outer wall surface of the see-through structure 13) after a certain degree of foreign matter such as dust on the surface of the TOF camera module reaches a certain degree, without frequently cleaning the surface of the sweeper 1. The preset time is not less than 20s, for example, 21s, 23s, 25s, 27s and the like, and the preset time is set to be not less than 20s, so that the situation that the current value is increased when the front of the sweeper 1 is the obstacle 60 can be effectively eliminated, the sweeper 1 has enough time to rotate over the obstacle 60, and the accuracy of distinguishing the foreign matters by the sweeper 1 is improved.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the control main board 21 is provided with a communication module, which is used for being connected with the mobile terminal in a communication manner, and when the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 exceeds a predetermined value for a predetermined time in actual use, the communication module can transmit a communication signal to the mobile terminal to prompt a user that dust and/or foreign matter exists on the surface of the see-through structure 13 and cleaning is needed.
Optionally, the mobile terminal in this embodiment can be APP on the mobile phone, and if there is dust and/or foreign matter on the surface of the see-through structure 13, related voice broadcast can be sent remotely through the mobile phone APP to remind the user to perform cleaning, so that the surface cleanliness of the sweeper 1 can be monitored, and the user experience of the sweeper 1 is further improved.

Optionally, the transmitting terminal 22 is an infrared light wave transmitter, after the transmitting terminal 22 emits infrared light, diffuse reflection occurs when the infrared light encounters a foreign object or an obstacle 60, and the photodiode has a function of detecting illumination intensity, so that the current value of the photodiode can be increased if foreign objects such as dust on the surface of the sweeper 1 are too much, the detection of the foreign objects or the obstacle 60 on the surface of the sweeper 1 is facilitated, the structure is simple, and the realization is facilitated. The photoelectric conversion device 40 of the present invention is not necessarily a PD device, and may be a light guide or the like, and any other modification within the concept of the present invention is within the scope of the present invention.
During actual installation, the emitting end 22 and the photoelectric conversion device 40 in this embodiment are both disposed on the control main board 21, so that the integration degree is higher, and the assembly process of the sweeper 1 is simplified. Alternatively, the emitting end 22 is disposed close to the photoelectric conversion device 40. It is understood that the meaning of the emitting end 22 being disposed close to the photoelectric conversion device 40 in this embodiment means that, when the space allows, the photoelectric conversion device 40 is disposed close to the emitting end 22 as much as possible, so as to ensure that the photoelectric conversion device 40 can receive as much reflected light waves as possible, improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the photoelectric conversion device 40, and facilitate accurately detecting whether foreign matters exist on the surface of the sweeper 1.

Optionally, the receiving end 24 of the TOF camera module 20 in this embodiment may be a receiving end RX commonly used in the TOF camera module 20, and the receiving end 24 may be configured to receive light rays emitted by the emitting end 22 and reflected by other objects so as to detect the distance between the obstacle 60, the foreign object, and the like and the sweeper 1.
Further, the see-through structure 13 in the present invention may be a transparent glass sheet, and may also be a transparent plastic sheet. Preferentially set up perspective structure 13 into transparent plastic piece in this application, so set up, can guarantee perspective structure 13's light transmissivity, in addition, for transparent glass piece, transparent plastic piece's fragility is lower, and the quality is lighter, is convenient for improve perspective structure 13's structural strength, reduces the weight of machine of sweeping the floor 1. Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the see-through structure 13 may be a transparent plastic film or the like.
In one embodiment of the present invention, one or more photoelectric conversion devices 40 may be provided, and when a plurality of photoelectric conversion devices 40 are provided, two or more photoelectric conversion devices 40 are provided. It can be understood that the one or more photoelectric conversion devices 40 can receive not only the light waves reflected by the foreign objects but also the light waves reflected by the obstacles in front of the sweeper 1. When the photoelectric conversion devices 40 are provided in plurality, the light waves reflected by the foreign matters and the obstacles 60 in each direction can be comprehensively received, and the detection accuracy of the sweeper 1 for the obstacles 60 and the foreign matters can be further improved.
Referring to fig. 1 and 7, in another embodiment of the present invention, in the process of actually designing the sweeper 1, the light waves reflected by the foreign objects (such as dust) are irradiated into the first area 200 of the mounting cavity of the sweeper 1 along the see-through structure 13, and the light waves reflected by the obstacle 60 are correspondingly irradiated into the second area 100 of the mounting cavity of the sweeper 1 along the see-through structure 13, and it can be known from the reflection rule of the light path that the second area 100 is located inside the first area 200, and at this time, the first area 200 has an outer area located outside the second area 100 (an annular area between the outer second area 100 and the first area in fig. 7). In the present embodiment, the photoelectric conversion device 40 is provided in plurality, that is, the photoelectric conversion device 40 is provided in two or more, and fig. 7 shows a case where the photoelectric conversion device 40 is provided in two, and for the sake of convenience of distinction, the two photoelectric conversion devices 40 described above are respectively identified as a first photoelectric conversion device 41 and a second photoelectric conversion device 42. Here, the first photoelectric conversion device 41 is disposed in the second region 100, and the second photoelectric conversion device 42 is disposed in the outer region. With this arrangement, not only can the intensity and duration of the current value of the first photoelectric conversion device 41 be used to determine whether the surface of the sweeper 1 has foreign matters, but also the magnitude of the current values of the first photoelectric conversion device 41 and the second photoelectric conversion device 42 can be used to determine whether the surface of the sweeper 1 has foreign matters.
Specifically, since the obstacle 60 is in front of the sweeper 1, and the distance from the see-through structure 13 of the sweeper 1 to the see-through structure 13 is longer than the distance from the foreign matter on the surface of the see-through structure 13 to the see-through structure 13, the light wave emitted by the emitting end 22 can only be reflected into the second area 100, but not to the outer area outside the second area 100, and only when the foreign matter is adhered to the surface of the see-through structure 13, the area outside the second area 100 can receive the guided and reflected light wave. That is, when the current value of the first photoelectric conversion device 41 in the second region 100 and the current value of the second photoelectric conversion device 42 in the outer region both rise to predetermined values, it can be determined that foreign matter is attached to the surface of the see-through structure 13; correspondingly, when only the current value of the first photoelectric conversion device 41 in the second area 100 rises to the predetermined value, it can be determined that there is an obstacle 60 in front of the sweeper 1.
Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, a plurality of photoelectric conversion devices 40 may be disposed in the second area 100 and the area other than the second area 100 illustrated in fig. 7, so as to receive the obstacle 60 and the reflected light waves of the foreign object comprehensively, thereby improving the accuracy of the sweeper 1 in determining the foreign object and the obstacle 60.
As can be seen, in the present invention, by providing a plurality of photoelectric conversion devices 40 in the sweeper 1, when the current values of the photoelectric conversion devices 40 in the second area 100 and the outer area both exceed the predetermined value, it is indicated that foreign matter is attached to the surface of the see-through structure 13, and if only the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 in the second area 100 exceeds the predetermined value, it is indicated that an obstacle 60 is in front of the sweeper 1. That is, in the present embodiment, it can be determined whether there is a foreign object or an obstacle 60 on the surface of the sweeper 1 only by the strong and weak signals of the current values of the photoelectric conversion devices 40 in the second area 100 and the external area, so that the foreign object or the obstacle 60 can be detected quickly.
In summary, the present invention can determine whether there is a foreign object on the surface of the see-through structure 13 according to the intensity and duration of the current value converted by the photoelectric conversion device 40. If the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 exceeds the predetermined value and continues for a predetermined time, it indicates that foreign matter is attached to the surface of the see-through structure 13, and if the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 exceeds the predetermined value and then decreases, it indicates that an obstacle 60 exists in front of the see-through structure 13.
That is to say, by adopting the sweeper 1 of the present invention, whether raised dust exists on the surface of the see-through structure 13 can be detected, which is convenient for reminding a user to clean the foreign matter on the surface of the see-through structure 13 in time, and the obstacle avoidance function of the sweeper 1 is not easily affected.
Example two
Referring to fig. 1, 2, and 4 to 8, the method for detecting foreign objects on the surface of the sweeper in the first embodiment is implemented by using the sweeper 1 in the first embodiment.
Specifically, the detection method comprises the following steps:
101. the light waves are emitted from the through-hole 12 toward the outside of the housing 10 by the emitting end 22.
In this step, when the sweeper 1 is started to work, the control main board 21 controls the emitting end 22 to emit light waves, and the light waves emitted by the emitting end 22 can be transmitted from the through hole 12 to the outside of the housing 10. When the light wave is transmitted to the see-through structure 13 in front of the through hole 12, if there is no dust or foreign matter on the surface of the see-through structure 13, the transmission direction of the light wave will not change substantially (see fig. 2), and if there is foreign matter on the surface of the see-through structure 13 or there is an obstacle 60 in front of the see-through structure 13, the light wave will be slowly reflected on the surface of the dust and/or foreign matter (see fig. 4), and the reflected light wave generated by the reflection of the foreign matter will be transmitted toward the inside of the through hole 12.
102. The reflected light waves are received by the photoelectric conversion means 40 and converted into current values.
In this step, when the photoelectric conversion device 40 receives the reflected light wave, the reflected light wave is converted into a current value. In this process, the more the obstacle 60 and the foreign object in front of the see-through structure 13 are, the more the reflected light waves are received by the photoelectric conversion device 40, and the stronger the current value is after being processed by the photoelectric conversion device 40. In the process, whether the obstacle 60 exists in front of the perspective structure 13 needs to be distinguished, when the sweeper 1 normally works, the main board 21 can automatically control the sweeper 1 to turn when encountering the obstacle, the reflected light received by the photoelectric conversion device 40 can be reduced after the sweeper turns, the current value can be reduced (as shown in fig. 5), and if the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 cannot be changed within a period of time (as shown in fig. 6), the diffuse reflection of the sweeper 1 can still not be reduced after the sweeper turns, and at this time, it can be shown that raised dust and/or foreign matters are attached to the surface of the perspective structure 13. Therefore, the present invention can determine whether dust and/or foreign matter exists on the surface of the see-through structure 13 by the current value converted by the photoelectric conversion device 40.
103. And judging whether the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 exceeds a preset value or not, if so, controlling the sweeper 1 to change the motion by using the control main board 21, changing the motion direction along with the sweeper 1, if the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 is reduced, determining that an obstacle is in front of the sweeper 1, and if the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 exceeds the preset value and lasts for a preset time, determining that foreign matters are adhered to the surface of the see-through structure 13.
That is, if the value of the current converted by the photoelectric conversion device 40 exceeds a predetermined value for a predetermined time, it is interpreted that foreign matter is attached to the surface of the see-through structure 13. If the value of the current converted by the photoelectric conversion device 40 does not have a predetermined value for a predetermined time, it indicates that there is no foreign matter such as dust on the surface of the see-through structure 13. It is understood that, in the embodiment, there is no dust, which means that there is less dust on the surface of the see-through structure 13, rather than absolutely no dust, and how much dust is attached can be adjusted and controlled according to the magnitude of the current intensity, which is not limited in this application.
In this step, the predetermined value is 70% to 90%, for example, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, or 9%, of the magnitude of the current value detected by the photoelectric conversion device when there is an obstacle in front of the sweeper 1, and the predetermined value is set to 70% to 90% of the magnitude of the current value detected by the photoelectric conversion device 40 when there is an obstacle 60 in front of the sweeper 1, so that the user can be prompted to clean the surface of the sweeper 1 (the surface of the see-through structure 13) after foreign matters such as dust reach a certain degree, instead of frequently cleaning the surface of the sweeper 1.
Further, the predetermined time in the embodiment is not less than 20s, for example, 21s, 23s, 25s, 27s, etc., and the predetermined time is set to be not less than 20s, so that the current value increase caused by the obstacle 60 in front of the sweeper 1 can be effectively eliminated.
In some embodiments of the present invention, when the current value exceeds the predetermined value for a predetermined time, the control main board 21 controls the warning element 50 to send a warning signal, so as to prompt the user to clean the surface of the sweeper 1, i.e. the surface of the see-through structure 13.
Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, when the current value exceeds the predetermined value for a predetermined time, the main board 21 may be further controlled to control the communication module box mobile terminal to send a signal to prompt the user to perform dust emission and/or foreign object cleaning.
In summary, the present invention can determine whether there is a foreign object on the surface of the see-through structure 13 according to the current value converted by the photoelectric conversion device 40. When the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 exceeds the predetermined value for a predetermined time, it indicates that dust and/or foreign matter are attached to the surface of the see-through structure 13, and if the current value of the photoelectric conversion device 40 exceeds the predetermined value and then decreases, it indicates that an obstacle exists in front of the see-through structure 13.
That is to say, by adopting the sweeper 1 of the present invention, whether raised dust exists on the surface of the see-through structure 13 can be detected, which is convenient for reminding a user to clean the foreign matter on the surface of the see-through structure 13 in time, and the obstacle avoidance function of the sweeper is not easily affected.
The above detailed description is made on the sweeper and the equipment of the method for detecting the foreign matters on the surface of the sweeper, and the specific examples are applied to explain the principle and the implementation mode of the invention, and the description of the above embodiments is only used for helping to understand the method for detecting the foreign matters on the surface of the sweeper and the core idea thereof; meanwhile, for a person skilled in the art, according to the idea of the present invention, there may be variations in the specific embodiments and the application scope, and in summary, the content of the present specification should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.
