The following describes the operation of the air purifier according to the embodiment of the present invention with a practical example.

The user may select an automatic mode of operation, in which the user needs to set the target position first, or a manual mode of operation. Firstly, the purifier body 100 freely moves indoors, indoor layout information is acquired through the sensor part 104, and a user sets a target position (a living room, a kitchen and a bedroom) and a corresponding purification mode;

parameters such as the moving sequence of the purifier body 100 in the target position (living room-kitchen-bedroom), the number of times of movement of each target position (e.g., 1), the operating time period of each target position (e.g., 15 minutes), the total operating time period of the purifier body 100 (e.g., 1 hour), etc. are set, however, the operating time period of each target position and the total operating time period of the purifier body 100 may be alternatively set, and if the total operating time period of the purifier body 100 is set, the control part 103 may allocate the corresponding operating time period according to the operating mode corresponding to each target position.

The purifier body 100 is controlled to start moving through modes such as voice commands or mobile phone APP, after the purifier body reaches a target position, the purification component 102 executes a corresponding purification mode until the purifier body 100 completes the moving times of each target position, or reaches the working time of each target position, or reaches the total working time of the purifier body 100, the purifier body 100 moves to the charging pile 108 to be charged, and related working data are broadcasted simultaneously.

Alternatively, the user can stop working through the APP or voice control of the purifier body 100 and move to the charging pile 108 for charging.

In the manual mode, the user needs to manually move the purifier body 100 to a position where purification treatment is needed, in this example, a toilet is taken as an example for description, and the specific manner may be to directly place the purifier body 100 in the toilet, or to control the purifier body 100 to move to the toilet through voice commands or mobile phone APP and the like based on the indoor layout information. When the working time of the toilet of the cleaner body 100 reaches a preset time threshold (for example, 15 minutes), or the working times of the toilet of the cleaner body 100 in the manual mode reach a preset time threshold (for example, 2 times), the control unit 103 sets the toilet as a newly added target position because the original target positions are the living room, the kitchen, and the bedroom, and when the user uses the automatic mode next time, the cleaner body 100 is moved to the living room, the kitchen, the bedroom, and the toilet, respectively, without the user manually setting the toilet as the target position.

In the moving process of the purifier body 100, if the control component 103 obtains the breakpoint service instruction, the purifier body 100 continues to move to the remaining target position and execute the corresponding purification mode after completing the action corresponding to the breakpoint service instruction.
