Referring to fig. 15, fig. 15 is a schematic flowchart of a maintenance prompting method for a maintenance device according to an embodiment of the present application, where the method is applied to a cleaning system. Specifically, the cleaning system includes the cleaning robot and the maintenance apparatus of any of the above embodiments. The maintenance apparatus includes a dust collection body detection device and a dust collection body.

As shown in fig. 15, the maintenance prompting method for the maintenance device specifically includes steps S101 to S102.

S101, acquiring the use data of the dust collecting body detected by the dust collecting body detection device, and determining the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body according to the use data of the dust collecting body.

Wherein the dust collecting body detecting device is a device for detecting the use condition of the dust collecting body. When the maintenance equipment carries out collection dirt operation to cleaning machines people, dust or foul among the cleaning machines people can be inhaled in the cavity that is used for holding dust or foul to the dust collecting body, and along with the maintenance equipment lasts to cleaning machines people's collection dirt operation, can accumulate more and more the material of absorption in the dust collecting body, and the collection dirt effect of maintenance equipment can receive the influence of the material in the dust collecting body how much.

Therefore, by providing the dust body detection means in the maintenance device, the dust body usage data is detected by the dust body detection means, and the dust holding capacity of the dust body can be determined based on the dust body usage data. Illustratively, the dust collection body usage data is data representing the usage status of the dust collection body from the last highest dust holding capacity to the present time. The dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body can be embodied through the use data of the dust collecting body.

The dust holding capacity is a parameter for representing the capacity of dust that can be carried in the dust collection body, and may be, for example, weight, volume, time, or the like. The dust collecting body generally has a fixed dust containing space, and as more and more substances are accumulated in the dust collecting body, the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body can change, and the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body can affect the dust collecting effect of the maintenance equipment. For example, if the dust holding capacity of the dust collection body is minimized, i.e., the dust collection body cannot carry more dust, the maintenance apparatus cannot continue to perform the dust collection work on the cleaning robot.

For example, the dust collecting body may carry dust of a first weight according to a preset dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body, and the maintenance device may suck the dust of the first weight after being used for several times or several times. Therefore, after the dust-collecting body usage data of the dust-collecting body detection device is acquired, the dust holding capacity of the dust-collecting body can be determined according to the dust-collecting body usage data.

S102, if the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body meets a preset maintenance condition, sending maintenance prompt information to prompt a user to carry out maintenance operation on the dust collecting body.

The preset maintenance condition is used for judging whether the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body is not enough to continue the dust collecting progress or whether the dust containing capacity influences the dust collecting effect of the maintenance equipment. If the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition, the dust collecting body of the maintenance equipment is not enough to continuously support the maintenance equipment to continuously perform the dust collecting progress on the cleaning robot, or the dust holding capacity influences the dust collecting effect of the maintenance equipment. At this time, the maintenance equipment sends maintenance prompt information to prompt a user to perform maintenance operation or cleaning operation on the dust collecting body. The dust collecting operation is an operation for improving the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body, and may include extracting substances carried in the dust collecting body to release the dust holding space of the dust collecting body, improving the dust holding capacity.

In some embodiments, the maintenance prompt includes at least one of an alarm prompt, an information prompt, and the like, which are not limited herein.

The maintenance prompting method of the maintenance equipment, can detect the use data of the dust collecting body of the maintenance equipment, and determine the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body according to the use data of the dust collecting body, when the dust holding capacity is not enough to support the maintenance equipment to continue to execute the dust collecting progress or the dust holding capacity to the cleaning robot and influence the dust collecting effect of the maintenance equipment to the cleaning robot, the cleaning operation can be actively carried out on the dust collecting body of the maintenance equipment, the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body is improved, the dust collecting progress or the dust collecting effect of the maintenance equipment is prevented from being influenced, it is ensured that the maintenance equipment can carry out the normal dust collecting operation on the cleaning robot, the work efficiency of the maintenance equipment is improved, meanwhile, the dust collecting body of the maintenance equipment is not required to be manually cleaned by a user, and the workload of the user is reduced.

In some embodiments, the acquiring dust collector usage data detected by the dust collector detecting device includes: and acquiring the use data of the dust collecting body detected by the dust collecting body detection device before the maintenance equipment executes the dust collecting operation according to the preset dust collecting task information or when the maintenance equipment executes the dust collecting operation according to the preset dust collecting task information.

Wherein, when the maintenance equipment executes the cleaning operation according to the preset dust collection task information, the maintenance equipment can continuously collect dust, and the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body is continuously changed. Therefore, when the maintenance equipment executes dust collection operation according to the preset dust collection task information, the use data of the dust collection body is detected, and then the dust containing capacity of the dust collection body is determined, if the dust containing capacity is not enough to support the maintenance equipment to execute the dust collection progress or the dust containing capacity can affect the dust collection effect of the maintenance equipment, the maintenance equipment can send maintenance prompt information to prompt a user to carry out maintenance operation or cleaning operation on the dust collection body, so that the dust containing space of the dust collection body is released, and the maintenance equipment can have enough dust containing capacity to complete the remaining dust collection operation corresponding to the preset dust collection task information.

In some embodiments, when the maintenance device performs a dust collecting operation according to preset dust collecting task information, the method further includes: determining the residual dust collection task information according to the preset dust collection task information and the dust collection progress of the maintenance equipment; and determining the dust-fixing requirement according to the residual dust-collecting task information. Correspondingly, if the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition, sending maintenance prompt information to prompt a user to maintain the dust collecting body, including: and if the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition and the dust containing requirement is greater than the dust containing capacity, sending maintenance prompt information to prompt a user to carry out maintenance operation on the dust collecting body.

The preset dust collection task information generally requires the maintenance device to perform dust collection operation on the cleaning robot under preset operation conditions, and the maintenance device generally performs dust collection operation on the cleaning robot according to preset operation conditions such as preset time and preset power. Therefore, when the maintenance equipment executes the dust collection operation corresponding to the preset dust collection task information, the dust collection progress of the maintenance equipment can be continuously obtained, the residual dust collection task information of the dust collection task is determined, and the dust collection space of the maintenance equipment is needed to be determined according to the residual dust collection task information, so that the dust collection requirement can be determined.

Along with the maintenance equipment continuously carries out the collection dirt operation, the collection dirt progress can continuously increase, and remaining collection dirt task information can reduce gradually, holds dirt demand and can reduce gradually promptly, but simultaneously because the dust holding capacity of the dust collection body of maintenance equipment also can continuously reduce, if the rate of reduction of holding dirt demand is less than the rate of reduction of dust holding capacity, the moment that the dust holding demand is greater than the dust holding capacity can appear, and maintenance equipment can't accomplish remaining collection dirt task information promptly.

Therefore, can be according to predetermine collection dirt task information and maintain the collection dirt progress of equipment and confirm surplus collection dirt task information, and according to surplus collection dirt task information confirms the dirt demand, and then accords with the maintenance condition of predetermineeing at the dirt holding capacity of the dust collection body, and when the dirt demand was greater than the dirt holding capacity again, the maintenance equipment can send and maintain the prompt message, and it is right to indicate the user the dust collection body carries out maintenance operation or cleaning operation, with the dirt holding space of release dust collection body, makes the maintenance equipment can have sufficient dirt holding capacity to accomplish the surplus collection dirt operation that corresponds with presetting collection dirt task information.

Through this embodiment, can real-time or regularly monitor the change of holding dirt demand and holding the dirt ability of maintaining equipment in the period of carrying out the collection dirt task, maintain equipment and can send and maintain the prompt message constantly suitable, it is right to indicate the user the collection dirt body maintains operation or clearance operation to make the user in time clear up the material in the collection dirt body in maintaining equipment, in time release the dirt space of holding of collection dirt body, can guarantee to maintain equipment and accomplish smoothly and predetermine the collection dirt operation that collection dirt task information corresponds.

In some embodiments, the acquiring dust collector usage data detected by the dust collector detecting device includes: and acquiring the use data of the dust collecting body detected by the dust collecting body detection device before the maintenance equipment executes dust collecting operation according to preset dust collecting task information.

When the maintenance equipment does not execute the dust collection task information, the maintenance equipment may be in a standby state, may be located in any corner in a home, and the like, and the dust collection operation needs to be performed according to the preset dust collection task information until the maintenance equipment receives the preset dust collection task information.

Therefore, before the maintenance equipment carries out dust collection operation according to the preset dust collection task information, the use data of the dust collection body is detected, and then the dust containing capacity of the dust collection body is determined.

In some embodiments, the dust body detecting means includes a weight sensor provided at the dust body.

The determining the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body according to the dust collecting body use data comprises: and determining the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body according to the weight of the dust collecting body detected by the weight sensor and a preset weight threshold.

Illustratively, the weight sensor may be disposed at the bottom of the dust collection body.

The preset weight threshold may be a weight parameter for judging a dust holding capacity of the dust collection body, and the dust holding capacity of the dust collection body may be determined according to a relationship between the preset weight threshold and the weight of the dust collection body. For example, if the weight of the dust collecting body is greater than or equal to the preset weight threshold, it is determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body is insufficient to continue the dust collecting progress or the dust holding capacity may affect the cleaning effect of the maintenance equipment, that is, it is determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition.

In some embodiments, the predetermined weight threshold is determined by multiplying a dust collection body load weight by a weight ratio parameter. The dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body is determined according to the weight of the dust collecting body detected by the weight sensor and a preset weight threshold value, and the method comprises the following steps: and if the weight of the dust collection body detected by the weight sensor is greater than or equal to the preset weight threshold value, determining that the dust containing capacity of the dust collection body meets the preset maintenance condition.

Wherein the dust collecting body full load weight is a weight when the dust collecting body is filled with the dust substance, and the dust collecting body full load weight may be preset. The weight proportion parameter is a weight parameter for determining the frequency of cleaning operations of the dust collecting body of the maintenance apparatus; the larger the weight ratio parameter, the higher the preset weight threshold, and the less frequently the cleaning operation of the dust collecting body of the maintenance apparatus is performed. The smaller the weight ratio parameter, the lower the preset weight threshold value will be, and the frequency of cleaning operations of the dust collecting body of the maintenance apparatus will increase. For example, the weight ratio parameter may be greater than or equal to 75%, that is, when seventy-five weight of dust substances of the full load weight of the dust collecting body are loaded in the dust collecting body, it may be determined that the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition. Optionally, the weight ratio parameter may be 90%, that is, when nine times of weight of dust substances of a full load weight of the dust collecting body are loaded in the dust collecting body, it is determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body meets a preset maintenance condition, and the maintenance device may send a maintenance prompt message to prompt a user to perform a maintenance operation or a cleaning operation on the dust collecting body, so that the user can clean the substances in the dust collecting body in the maintenance device in time.

The volume sensor is arranged on the dust collecting body, can detect the volume of dust substances contained in the dust collecting body, generates the dust volume, and determines the residual volume of the dust collecting body according to the preset volume of the dust collecting body and the detected dust volume. Alternatively, a plurality of sensors may be provided on an inner wall of the dust collection body to detect the volume of the dust substance in the dust collection body.

The preset volume threshold is a volume parameter for judging the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body, and the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body can be determined according to the relationship between the residual volume of the dust collecting body and the preset volume threshold. For example, if the remaining volume of the dust collection body is less than or equal to the preset volume threshold, it is determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collection body is not sufficient to continue the dust collection progress or the dust holding capacity may affect the cleaning effect of the maintenance device, that is, it may be determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collection body meets the preset maintenance condition.

In some embodiments, the predetermined volume threshold is determined by multiplying the dust volume by a volume ratio parameter. The determining the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body according to the remaining volume of the dust collecting body detected by the volume sensor and a preset volume threshold value comprises: and if the residual volume of the dust collection body detected by the volume sensor is less than or equal to the preset volume threshold, determining that the dust containing capacity of the dust collection body meets the preset maintenance condition.

Wherein, the dust collecting body capacity volume is the capacity volume of the dust collecting body when the dust collecting body is empty, and the capacity volume of the dust collecting body can be preset. The volume ratio parameter is a parameter for determining the frequency of the cleaning operation of the dust collecting body of the maintenance apparatus; the larger the volume ratio parameter, the higher the preset volume threshold, and the less frequently the cleaning operation of the dust collecting body of the maintenance apparatus will be performed. The smaller the volume ratio parameter, the smaller the preset volume threshold value, and the more frequently the cleaning operation of the dust collecting body of the maintenance apparatus will be performed. For example, the volume ratio parameter may be less than or equal to 15%, that is, when the dust collecting body is loaded with eight to five volumes of dust substances of the volume capacity of the dust collecting body, it may be determined that the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition; optionally, the volume ratio parameter may be 30%, that is, when seven volumes of dust substances of the volume of the dust collecting body are loaded in the dust collecting body, it is determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition, and the maintenance device may send maintenance prompt information to prompt a user to perform maintenance operation or cleaning operation on the dust collecting body, so that the user can clean the substances in the dust collecting body in the maintenance device in time.

If the dust collecting body is a dust collecting box, the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body is determined according to the use data of the dust collecting body, and the method comprises the following steps: and determining the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body according to the residual capacity of the dust collecting body detected by the volume sensor and a preset capacity threshold.

The preset capacity threshold is a capacity parameter for judging the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body, and the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body can be determined according to the relation between the residual capacity of the dust collecting body and the preset capacity threshold. For example, if the remaining capacity of the dust collecting body is less than or equal to the preset capacity threshold, it is determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body is insufficient to continue the dust collecting progress or the dust holding capacity may affect the cleaning effect of the maintenance equipment, that is, it may be determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition.

In some embodiments, the preset capacity threshold is determined by multiplying a volume of a single capacity of a dust box of the cleaning robot by a capacity ratio parameter. The determining the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body according to the remaining capacity of the dust collecting body detected by the volume sensor and a preset capacity threshold includes: and if the residual capacity of the dust collecting body detected by the volume sensor is less than or equal to the preset capacity threshold, determining that the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition.

Wherein the single capacity volume of the dust box of the cleaning robot is the capacity volume of the dust box when the dust box of the cleaning robot is empty, and the single capacity volume of the dust box of the cleaning robot may be preset. The capacity ratio parameter is a parameter for determining the frequency of the cleaning operation of the dust collecting body of the maintenance apparatus; the larger the capacity proportion parameter, the higher the preset capacity threshold value, and the lower the frequency of cleaning operations of the dust collecting body of the maintenance apparatus. The smaller the capacity proportion parameter, the smaller the preset capacity threshold value, and the higher the frequency of cleaning operations of the dust collecting body of the maintenance apparatus will be. For example, the capacity ratio parameter may be greater than or equal to 1.5, that is, when the dust collecting body is loaded with dust substances with a volume 1.5 times of the capacity volume of the dust box of the cleaning robot, it may be determined that the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition; optionally, the capacity ratio parameter may be 1, that is, when dust substances with a volume 1 times of the capacity volume of the dust collecting body are loaded in the dust collecting body, it is determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition, and the maintenance device may send maintenance prompt information to prompt a user to perform maintenance operation or cleaning operation on the dust collecting body, so that the user can timely clean the substances in the dust collecting body in the maintenance device. The volume ratio parameter can be set according to the actual application requirement, and is not limited herein.

In some embodiments, the dust collection chamber may be the receptacle described above. In the maintenance equipment with the detachable dust collecting body, the dust collecting body can be arranged in the dust collecting cavity; in the maintenance device in which the dust collection body is integrated with the base, the dust collection chamber may be the dust collection body.

When the maintenance equipment collects dust for the cleaning robot, dirt or dust in the cleaning robot can enter the dust collecting body through the air duct. The air pressure sensor can be arranged in the air duct or the dust collection cavity and is used for detecting air pressure data in a dust collection assembly of the maintenance equipment when the maintenance equipment performs dust collection operation.

The air pressure data can comprise vacuum degree or dust collection pressure, wherein the vacuum degree is the gas rarefied degree in a vacuum state, namely the vacuum degree in the dust collection body and the dust collection assembly when the maintenance equipment is in dust collection operation; the dust collecting pressure can be the pressure in the air duct in the dust collecting assembly when the maintenance equipment is in dust collecting operation, and the more the dust substance in the dust collecting body is, the lower the vacuum degree is, the larger the dust collecting pressure is, and the poorer the dust collecting effect is.

The preset air pressure threshold is an air pressure parameter for judging the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body, and the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body can be determined according to the relation between air pressure data and the preset air pressure threshold. For example, the preset air pressure threshold includes a preset vacuum degree and a preset pressure, and if the vacuum degree in the air pressure data is less than or equal to the preset vacuum degree, or the dust collection pressure in the air pressure data is greater than or equal to the preset pressure, it is determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collection body is not sufficient to continue the dust collection progress or the dust holding capacity may affect the dust collection effect of the maintenance device, that is, it may be determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collection body meets the preset maintenance condition.

In some embodiments, the preset air pressure threshold comprises a vacuum level threshold determined from an initial vacuum level multiplied by a vacuum level scaling parameter, and/or a pressure threshold determined from an initial pressure multiplied by a pressure scaling parameter. The dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body is determined according to the air pressure data detected by the air pressure sensor and a preset air pressure threshold, and the method comprises the following steps: and if the vacuum degree in the air pressure data detected by the air pressure sensor is smaller than or equal to the vacuum degree threshold value, and/or if the dust collection pressure in the air pressure data detected by the air pressure sensor is larger than or equal to the pressure threshold value, determining that the dust containing capacity of the dust collection body meets the preset maintenance condition.

The vacuum degree proportion parameter is a vacuum degree parameter used for determining the frequency of cleaning operation of the dust collecting body of the maintenance equipment; the larger the vacuum degree ratio parameter, the higher the vacuum degree threshold value, and the frequency of cleaning operation of the dust collection body of the maintenance equipment is reduced. The smaller the vacuum degree ratio parameter, the lower the vacuum degree threshold value will be, and the frequency of cleaning operations of the dust collecting body of the maintenance apparatus will be increased.

The pressure ratio parameter is a pressure parameter for maintaining the frequency of cleaning operation of the dust collecting body of the equipment; the larger the pressure ratio parameter, the higher the pressure threshold, and the less frequently the cleaning operation of the dust collecting body of the maintenance apparatus is performed. The smaller the pressure ratio parameter, the lower the pressure threshold value will be, and the frequency of cleaning operations of the dust collecting body of the maintenance apparatus will increase. Whether the dust containing capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition can be judged through the vacuum degree and/or the dust collecting pressure.

For example, the vacuum degree proportion parameter may be less than or equal to 60%, i.e., the vacuum degree is 60% or less of the initial vacuum degree, i.e., it may be determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition; optionally, the vacuum degree proportion parameter may be 25%, that is, when the vacuum degree is 25% of the initial vacuum degree, it is determined that the dust holding capacity of the dust collecting body meets the preset maintenance condition, and the maintenance device may send maintenance prompt information to prompt a user to perform maintenance operation or cleaning operation on the dust collecting body, so that the user can timely clean substances in the dust collecting body in the maintenance device.
