Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a cleaning device provided in an embodiment of the present application. Referring to fig. 1, a cleaning apparatus 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes: a main body 11, a housing 12, a brush roll cover 13, and a brush roll 14. Above the dotted line in the figure is the body 11. The main body 11 and the housing 12 are detachably connected, the rolling brush cover 13 and the housing 12 enclose a containing cavity, and the rolling brush 14 is arranged in the containing cavity and can rotate relative to the housing 12. The roll brush 14 has a roll brush body 141, and both ends of the roll brush body 141 form roll brush end faces 142.
Referring to fig. 1, the housing 12 is provided with a main suction port 121 toward a main body 141 of the roll brush 14, and the main suction port 121 sucks in dirt directly in front of the roll brush 14. The side of the housing 12 is provided with a side suction opening 122, and the side suction opening 122 is used to suck contaminants in an area lateral to the drum brush 14. A dirt suction channel is arranged in the shell 12, one end of the dirt suction channel is connected with the recovery barrel 111, a plurality of ports are formed in the other end of the dirt suction channel, one of the ports is connected with the main suction port 121, and the other ports are respectively connected with different side suction ports 122. The portion of the housing 12 facing the main body 141 of the rolling brush 14 is also referred to as the front surface of the housing 12, and the side surface of the housing 12 is perpendicular to the front surface of the housing 12.
Referring to fig. 1, during operation of the cleaning apparatus 100, the main suction opening 121 serves to suck contaminants, particularly contaminant particles, in an area directly in front of the roll brush 14, and the side suction openings 122 serve to suck contaminants, particularly contaminant particles, in a side area. The side areas include areas on either side of the roll brush 14 of the cleaning device 100. It will be appreciated that either side of the roller brush 14 is either side of the cleaning device 100. In the figure, the area on both sides of the cleaning device is directly in front of any one of the roller brush end faces 142. In addition, the side area may optionally include any one side area of the area immediately in front of which the cleaning apparatus 100 is about to pass in the traveling direction, in addition to the area immediately in front of any one of the roller-brush end surfaces 142. For example, the side areas also include any side area of the area immediately in front of which the cleaning apparatus 100 is about to pass within the next 5 seconds.
Referring to fig. 1 again, the main body 11 is further provided with a controller 112, a solution tank 113, and the like. In practice, the cleaning device 100 may also include more or less components, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited.
FIG. 2 is a schematic view of a side suction opening of a cleaning appliance according to an embodiment of the present application. Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 illustrates a side surface of the housing 12, and as can be seen from fig. 2, the side suction opening 122 is disposed on the housing 12 and behind the roller brush 14. In addition, the roller brush end face 142, the roller of the cleaning apparatus 100, and the like are also illustrated in fig. 2.
During operation, the side suction port 122 is activated in response to activation of the cleaning apparatus 100, or in response to an operation instruction from a user. After activation, the side suction openings 122 suction dirt in the regions of the sides of the cleaning appliance 100. Among them, the dirt includes water stain, particles, dust, etc.
Next, the operation principle of the cleaning apparatus will be described in detail based on the structure shown in fig. 1 and 2.
In one implementation, both the main suction opening 121 and the side suction opening 122 are open after the cleaning apparatus 100 is started. During operation of the cleaning appliance 100, the main suction opening 121 and the side suction opening 122 operate simultaneously, thereby co-operating with cleaning.
In another implementation, a key, such as a physical key or a touch key, is provided on the main body 11, and the user presses the key to activate the side suction opening 122. After the cleaning apparatus 100 is started, the main suction opening 121 is opened, but the side suction opening 122 is not opened. After the user presses the button, the side suction port 122 is opened. For example, when the user pushes the cleaning apparatus 100 to perform cleaning and when there are a relatively large number of particles on the side of the cleaning apparatus 100 but the main suction opening 121 cannot suck, the user presses a button to open the side suction opening 122 and sucks dirt on the side of the cleaning apparatus 100 through the side suction opening 122.
In still another aspect, referring to fig. 1, optionally, when the preset condition indicates that the particulate matter in the side area of the roller brush satisfies the condition, the cleaning device 100 further includes a detector 15, and the detector 15 is disposed on the housing 12 for obtaining the parameter of the particle size in the side area. The cleaning apparatus 100 detects whether the particulate matter in the side region satisfies a preset condition according to the parameter of the particulate matter. When the particulate matter in the side region satisfies the preset condition, the cleaning apparatus 100 opens the side suction port 122, and sucks in the particulate matter in the side region using the side suction port. When the particulate matter in the side region does not satisfy the preset condition, the side suction port is not opened.
When the particulate matter in the side region satisfies the predetermined condition during operation of the cleaning apparatus 100, the cleaning apparatus 100 opens the side suction opening 122 to suck the particulate matter in the side region. After a period of time, the cleaning apparatus 100 moves to another position, and at this time, the side areas are areas on both sides of the cleaning apparatus 100 at the current position. That is, the side area is not constant but dynamically changes as the cleaning apparatus 100 moves. If the particulate matter in the side region does not satisfy the preset condition at the present time, but the side suction opening 122 is in the open state, the cleaning apparatus 100 automatically closes the side suction opening until the cleaning apparatus 100 moves to a new position and the particulate matter in the side region satisfies the preset condition, and the cleaning apparatus 100 automatically opens the side suction opening 122.
Optionally, in the above embodiment, when the preset condition indicates that the current environmental parameter of the cleaning apparatus 100 satisfies the condition, the cleaning apparatus 100 further includes a sensor 16, the sensor 16 is disposed on the housing 12, and is configured to acquire the current environmental parameter and transmit the environmental parameter to the controller 112 of the cleaning apparatus 100, the controller 112 determines whether the current environmental parameter satisfies the condition for opening the side suction opening 122, and when the current environmental parameter satisfies the condition for opening the side suction opening 122, the controller 112 opens the side suction opening 122. When the current environmental parameter does not satisfy the condition for opening the side suction opening 122, then the side suction opening 122 is closed or the side suction opening 122 is maintained in a closed state.
For example, the sensor 16 is a pressure sensor, and the controller 112 opens the side suction opening 122 when determining that the cleaning apparatus 100 is cleaning corners or when determining that there is an obstacle on the side of the cleaning apparatus 100 based on a pressure signal transmitted from the pressure sensor. If the controller 112 excludes from the pressure signal that the cleaning apparatus 100 is not currently sweeping an obstacle at a corner or a side, the side suction opening 122 is closed.
For another example, where sensor 16 is an impact sensor, controller 112 determines that the cleaning apparatus is sweeping a corner based on an intensity signal from the impact sensor indicating the intensity of the impact, or if it determines that there is an obstacle on the side of cleaning apparatus 100, then side suction opening 122 is opened. If the controller 112 excludes that the cleaning apparatus 100 is not currently cleaning corners or has an obstacle on the side based on the collision strength signal, the side suction opening 122 is closed.
As another example, the sensor 16 is a distance sensor, the controller 112 receives a distance signal from the distance sensor, and controls the side suction opening 122 to be opened when the distance signal indicates that the distance between the cleaning apparatus 100 and an obstacle on the side is less than a preset distance; when the distance between the cleaning apparatus 100 and an obstacle located at the side is greater than or equal to a preset distance, the side suction opening 122 is closed.
Alternatively, when the cleaning apparatus 100 enters the bed bottom, sweeping under a sofa, when the distance signal indicates that the distance between the top of the cleaning apparatus 100 and an obstacle located above the cleaning apparatus 100 is less than a preset height, the side suction opening 122 is controlled to be opened; otherwise, the side suction opening 122 is closed.
For another example, the sensor 16 is a light sensor, the controller 112 receives a light intensity signal from the light sensor, when the light intensity signal indicates that the light is dark and lower than a preset brightness, the controller 112 determines that the cleaning device is cleaning under a bed, a sofa or other furniture, and at this time, the controller 112 controls the side suction opening to be opened; when the light intensity is greater than the preset light intensity, the controller 112 closes the side suction opening 122.
For another example, the sensor 16 is a liquid sensor, the controller 112 receives a liquid signal from the liquid sensor, and when the liquid signal indicates that there is liquid on both sides of the cleaning apparatus 100, the controller 112 closes the side suction opening 122, and at this time, the cleaning apparatus 100 performs cleaning and then wiping through the main suction opening 121, thereby avoiding the disadvantage that the side suction opening only sucks liquid but does not wipe the floor surface, which results in dirtier floor surface. When the liquid signal indicates that both sides of the cleaning apparatus 100 are dry, the controller 112 controls the side suction opening 122 to be opened.
In actual implementation, one or more of a pressure sensor, an impact sensor, a distance sensor, a light sensor and a liquid sensor can be arranged according to requirements, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited.
In the above embodiment, after the side suction port 122 is opened, the power of the motor is increased. The controller 112 determines the suction force distribution ratio based on one or more of the concentration of dust in the side area, the concentration of particulate matter in the side area detected by the detector 15, and the like. Then, the total suction force based on the motor of the cleaning apparatus is distributed to the main suction opening 121 and the opened side suction opening 122 according to the distribution ratio.
For example, the side suction openings 122 of both sides of the housing 12 are opened, and the cleaning apparatus divides the total suction force generated based on the motor of the cleaning apparatus into 2 portions, one of which is supplied to the main suction opening and the other of which is divided into two portions, which are supplied to the two side suction openings, respectively.
By adopting the scheme, the suction force is accurately distributed, so that the cleaning quality is improved, and the power consumption is reduced.
In addition, a display screen (not shown) is provided on the main body 11 of the cleaning apparatus 100, and the side suction ports 122 on the left and right sides of the cleaning apparatus 100 are displayed through the display screen. For example, when the side suction port is opened, a mark corresponding to the side suction port is lighted on the display screen. The brightness of the sign is related to the amount of suction provided by the side suction opening, e.g., the greater the suction, the greater the brightness. Alternatively, different colors may be used to display different brightness, for example, green when the brightness is low, and red when the brightness is high, i.e., the suction force is greater than a certain threshold.
Fig. 3 is a top view of a housing of a cleaning device according to an embodiment of the present application, referring to fig. 3, a detector 15 is disposed at a middle position of the housing 12, and the detector 15 is, for example, a particle detector capable of detecting particles with a size corresponding to a predetermined size. For example, particles having a diameter of 1 mm and more are detected. As another example, particles having a diameter greater than 100 microns or more are detected. The smaller the diameter, the higher the accuracy of the detector. In practice, the cleaning device is set to a preset size before leaving the factory. Or the cleaning equipment has different cleaning grades, the higher the grade is, the smaller the preset size is, the larger the cleaning granularity is, and the user can select different grades according to the requirement to further clean the ground and the like.
Adopt this kind of scheme, utilize the detector to survey the side region, only just open the side suction inlet under the condition that particulate matter satisfies the predetermined condition in the side region, realize energy saving consumption, avoid frequently charged purpose.
The cleaning equipment comprises a rolling brush cover, a shell, a rolling brush and the like, wherein the rolling brush cover and the shell are enclosed to form an accommodating cavity, the rolling brush is rotatably arranged in the accommodating cavity and is provided with a rolling brush main body, rolling brush end faces are formed at two ends of the rolling brush main body, a main suction port is arranged on the shell facing the rolling brush main body, and the main suction port is used for sucking dirt right ahead of the rolling brush; the side surface of the shell is provided with a side suction port which is used for sucking dirt in a side area, and the side area comprises an area on either side of a rolling brush of the cleaning equipment; be provided with the soil pick-up passageway in the casing, the one end and the recycling bin of soil pick-up passageway are connected, and the other end of soil pick-up passageway has a plurality of ports, and a port in a plurality of ports is connected with main suction inlet, and all the other ports are connected with different side suction mouths respectively. By adopting the structure, the whole cleaning area can be cleaned without the need of moving the cleaning equipment for many times, the cleaning efficiency is high, and moreover, the service life of the rolling brush is greatly prolonged as the rolling brush does not need to clean the whole cleaning area.
Alternatively, in the above embodiment, the main suction opening 121 and the side suction opening 122 share a dirt suction passage. During operation of the cleaning device 100, dirt drawn in by the main suction opening 121 and the side suction opening 122 enters the recovery tank through the same dirt suction path. For example, please refer to fig. 4A and 4B.
Fig. 4A is a schematic view of a soil pick-up process of the cleaning device according to the embodiment of the present application. Referring to fig. 4A, a thick black arrow indicates a traveling direction of the cleaning apparatus 100. The main suction opening 121 provides a suction force opposite to the direction of travel to draw dirt directly in front of the cleaning apparatus into the recovery bucket. The suction provided by the side suction opening 122 is perpendicular to the direction of travel of the cleaning apparatus 100, so that dirt in the side regions, i.e., the regions on both sides of the roll brush of the cleaning apparatus 100, is sucked into the recovery tub.
Fig. 4B is a schematic view of another soil pick-up process of the cleaning device provided in the embodiment of the present application. The difference from fig. 4A is that: in fig. 4B, in addition to providing a suction force opposite to the direction of travel for the main suction opening, the main suction opening also provides a portion of the suction force intersecting the direction of travel that is capable of suctioning dirt in the area of the cleaning apparatus side, so that the suction range of the main suction opening is increased and cleaning efficiency is improved.
Similarly, in fig. 4B, in addition to providing a suction force perpendicular to the direction of travel for the side suction opening, the side suction opening also provides a portion of the suction force intersecting the direction perpendicular to the direction of travel, which portion of the suction force is capable of extracting dirt in the vicinity of the area directly to the side of the cleaning apparatus, so that the suction range of the side suction opening is increased, improving cleaning efficiency.
Optionally, in the above embodiment, the cleaning apparatus 100 further includes a motor, which is not illustrated in fig. 1 and is disposed on the main body 11. The electric energy provided by the motor is converted into suction force and then is transmitted to each of the plurality of ports.
During cleaning, when the cleaning device 100 determines that the particulate matter in the side area meets the preset condition according to the detection result of the detector 15; alternatively, when the cleaning apparatus 100 determines that the side suction opening needs to be opened based on the current environmental parameters acquired by the sensor 16, the orientation of the side region with respect to the roller brush is automatically determined, and all or part of the side suction opening is selectively opened. Meanwhile, the motor increases the power, and dirt particles distributed on two sides of the rolling brush are sucked into the recovery barrel from the side suction port, so that the aim of cleaning larger dirt particles on the ground for the first time is fulfilled, and the working pressure of adsorption cleaning of the rolling brush is shared.
After the electric energy provided by the motor is converted into the suction force, the cleaning equipment can divide the suction force into three equal parts and respectively provide the three equal parts for the two side suction openings of the main suction opening. Alternatively, the cleaning apparatus divides the suction force equally into two portions, one of which is provided to the main suction opening and the other of which is continuously provided in two portions, which are provided to the two side suction openings, respectively. Alternatively, the cleaning apparatus detects the concentration of particulate matter or the like directly in front of, on both sides of, the cleaning apparatus, and determines the distribution ratio of the suction force, the closing of the side suction port, or the like, according to the magnitude of the concentration. For example, when the concentration of the particulate matter in the front is the highest, the concentration of the particulate matter in the right front side is the next highest, and the concentration of the particulate matter in the left front side is the lowest, the suction forces of the main suction port, the right front side corresponding side suction port, and the left front side corresponding side suction port are 50%, 30%, and 20% of the total suction force in this order.
If the concentration of particulate matter is greatest on the right front side, and then is directly in front, and the concentration of particulate matter is smallest on the left front side, the cleaning device closes the right front side suction port. Simultaneously, remind the user through modes such as pronunciation, pilot lamp scintillation and clear up right positive side area through main suction inlet. The user hears the prompt, changes the orientation of the cleaning appliance etc. so that the original right front side region becomes the front region, and the region is cleaned through the main suction opening.
By adopting the structure, the work of the main suction port and the side suction port can be controlled by one motor, the structure is simple, and the operation is convenient.
Optionally, in the above embodiment, the cleaning apparatus 100 further includes a plurality of motors, and the motors in the plurality of motors correspond to the ports in the plurality of ports one to one. When the structure is adopted, each dust collecting opening (the main suction opening or the side suction opening) is provided with a motor, namely, the motor of each dust collecting opening is independent, so that each dust collecting opening can be controlled independently. For example, only the main suction port is opened, the side suction ports on both sides are opened while the main suction port is opened, and the side suction port on one side is opened while the main suction port is opened.
By adopting the scheme, the motors of the dust collecting openings are independent, so that the dust collecting openings can be controlled independently.
Based on the cleaning equipment, the embodiment of the application also provides a cleaning method. For example, please refer to fig. 5. Fig. 5 is a flowchart of a cleaning method provided in an embodiment of the present application. The main body of the cleaning method is the cleaning apparatus having the main suction opening and the side suction opening, and the method comprises:
501. the cleaning device is activated.
The embodiment of the application does not limit the way of starting the cleaning device. For example, the user presses a physical key or touch key on the cleaning device to activate the cleaning device. For another example, the user controls the cleaning device to be activated by a remote controller or the like. For another example, the user issues a voice command to start the cleaning device, makes a start gesture to start the cleaning device, and the like.
502. The dirt directly in front of the roller brush of the cleaning device is sucked by the suction force provided by the main suction opening.
503. And when the side suction port meets the preset condition, opening the side suction port.
504. The particulate matter in the area lateral to the roll brush is sucked up by the suction force provided by the side suction opening.
Illustratively, when the cleaning apparatus is activated, the main suction opening generates a suction force in a direction as shown in FIG. 4A or FIG. 4B, which is capable of sucking dirt right in front of the roll brush into the recovery tub. In addition, when the side suction port satisfies the preset condition, the side suction port also generates a suction force, and the direction of the suction force generated by the side suction port refers to fig. 4A or 4B, and the suction force can suck the dirt on the side of the roller brush into the collection bucket.
According to the cleaning method provided by the embodiment of the application, after the cleaning equipment is started, dirt in the front of the rolling brush is sucked by using the suction force provided by the main suction opening, and when the side suction opening meets the preset condition, the dirt on two sides of the cleaning equipment is sucked by using the suction force provided by the side suction opening. By adopting the scheme, the whole cleaning area can be cleaned without the need of moving the cleaning equipment for many times, the cleaning efficiency is high, and moreover, the service life of the rolling brush is greatly prolonged as the rolling brush does not need to clean the whole cleaning area.
Alternatively, in the above embodiment, the side suction opening may be actuated simultaneously with the main suction opening, i.e. the side suction opening and the main suction opening operate simultaneously after actuation of the cleaning appliance. Alternatively, when the cleaning apparatus is started, the main suction opening is started simultaneously, and at the same time, the cleaning apparatus detects whether the particulate matter in the side area satisfies a preset condition by using the detector. If the particulate matter in the side region satisfies the predetermined condition, the side suction port is opened, and the particulate matter in the side region is sucked by the suction force provided by the side suction port. If the particulate matter in the side region does not satisfy the preset condition, the travel is continued with the main suction port open and the side suction port not open.
In addition, when the cleaning apparatus is provided with a sensor, the main suction opening is synchronously started when the cleaning apparatus is started, and at the same time, the cleaning apparatus acquires a current environmental parameter of the cleaning apparatus using the sensor, and determines whether to open the side suction opening according to the current environmental parameter.
The side area will be described in detail below, taking as an example the case where the cleaning apparatus determines whether or not to open the side suction opening based on the detection result of the detector.
Fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of a side area in the cleaning method provided by the embodiment of the present application, in which the complete cleaning device is not illustrated, but only the roll brush, the housing and the probe of the cleaning device are illustrated.
Referring to fig. 6, when the traveling direction of the cleaning device is shown as the arrow direction in the figure, the area right in front of the roller brush is shown as the diagonal filled portion in the figure. The side regions include regions on either side of the wheel, such as the left and right front side regions in the figure. In addition, when the side suction force provided by the side suction port is as shown in fig. 4B, the side region includes a region in front of the left front side region and a region in front of the right front side region in addition to the left front side region and the right front side region. The area in front of the left front area and the area in front of the right front area can be regarded as the front area of the rolling brush during the travel of the cleaning device. Thus, the cleaning equipment detects the positive side of the area to be passed by the rolling brush by using the detector in advance, and when the situation that particulate matters in the positive side area of the rolling brush meet the preset conditions in the advancing process of the cleaning equipment in future is detected, the side suction port is opened in time to suck dirt on the side of the rolling brush, so that the cleaning efficiency is improved.
When the cleaning apparatus detects, using the detector, that the particulate matter in the side region satisfies a preset condition, the side suction opening is opened so that dirt in the side region is sucked using a suction force provided by the side suction opening. By adopting the scheme, the suction port is opened only under the condition that the particulate matters in the side area meet the preset conditions, so that the electric energy of the cleaning equipment is saved, and the cruising ability of the cleaning equipment is improved.
Optionally, in the above embodiment, the preset condition includes that the density of the particulate matter exceeds a preset density, and/or the area of the region occupied by the particulate matter in the side region exceeds a preset size.
Illustratively, whether it is the main suction opening or the side suction opening, the suction force it provides for suctioning dirt, which is mostly particles of a certain diameter. In practice, however, besides the particulate dirt, there are some dust and the like with a small diameter or even invisible to the naked eye, and the dirt is referred to as dirt which does not satisfy the predetermined condition. Alternatively, when the density of particulate matter is small, although opening the side suction port enables suction of such particulate matter, it consumes much energy and is low in cost performance. For this purpose, preset conditions may be set, which include that the density of the particulate matter exceeds a preset density, and/or that the area of the region occupied by the particulate matter in the side region exceeds a preset size. That is, the side suction port is opened only when the density of particulate matter is relatively large in the side region and particulate matter is scattered over a large area.
Adopt this kind of scheme, confirm whether open the side suction inlet through density, the area etc. that detect the regional internal particulate matter of side, realize energy saving consumption, avoid frequently charged purpose.
Alternatively, in the above embodiment, the orientation of the side region with respect to the roller brush is determined when the cleaning apparatus opens the side suction opening when the particulate matter in the side region satisfies the predetermined condition. Thereafter, the cleaning apparatus determines to open some or all of the side suction openings in the at least one side suction opening depending on the orientation.
Referring to fig. 6, it is assumed that the dirt particles are located right in front of the left front area, and the right front area and the area right in front of the right front area are free of dirt particles. In this case, the cleaning apparatus opens only the left side suction opening to suck the left contaminants.
In the same way, if the dirt particles on the two sides of the cleaning equipment meet the preset conditions, the cleaning equipment opens the side suction ports on the two sides, and the cleaning equipment sucks the two sides in the advancing process.
Adopt this kind of scheme, through the side suction inlet that opens of pertinence, reduce cleaning device's resource consumption when improving clean efficiency.
Alternatively, in the above embodiment, after the cleaning apparatus sucks the particulate matter in the side region with the suction force supplied from the side suction opening, the side suction opening is closed when the particulate matter in the side region does not satisfy the preset condition.
For example, when the user controls the traveling of the cleaning device, when the cleaning device is located at a certain position, if the particles on both sides of the roll brush satisfy a preset condition, the side suction ports on both sides are opened to suck the dirt on both sides of the cleaning device. After a period of time, the particulate matter on both sides of the roller brush no longer meets the preset conditions, at which point the cleaning device actively closes the side suction opening.
For another example, the side area is constantly updated during travel of the cleaning device. When the cleaning apparatus is moved and the side region is changed from the side region a to the side region B, the side suction port is opened when the side region is the side region a, assuming that the particulate matter in the side region a satisfies the preset condition and the particulate matter in the side region B does not satisfy the preset condition. When the cleaning apparatus travels so that the side area is changed to side area B, the cleaning apparatus automatically closes the side suction opening.
By adopting the scheme, the cleaning equipment determines to open or close the side suction port according to the condition of particles in the side area in real time, so that the resource consumption of the cleaning equipment is reduced while the cleaning efficiency is improved.
Optionally, in the above embodiment, a detection model is deployed on the cleaning device in advance, and the detection model is used to detect whether the particulate matter in the side area meets a preset condition. In the detection process, the side area is shot to obtain a plurality of images. Then, each image in the plurality of images is input into a detection model to output a recognition result of each image, wherein the recognition result is used for indicating the density of the particles in the side area and/or the area of the area occupied by the particles. And finally, detecting whether the particulate matters in the side area meet preset conditions according to the identification result.
Illustratively, a plurality of sample images are collected in advance, the sample images include images of various areas to be cleaned containing particulate matter, the initial model is trained by using the plurality of sample images, a detection model is obtained, and the detection model is deployed on the cleaning equipment. In the cleaning process, a camera and the like of the cleaning equipment are used for shooting the side area to acquire images, and the acquired images are input into the detection model, so that the density of particles in the side area and/or the area of the area occupied by the particles are obtained. And then, detecting whether the particulate matters in the side area meet preset conditions according to the identification results.
By adopting the scheme, the detection model is utilized to detect the image of the side area so as to determine whether the particulate matter in the side area meets the preset condition, and the accuracy rate and the speed are high.
Optionally, in the above embodiment, the cleaning device further detects a concentration of dust in the side area. When the concentration of the dust is greater than the preset concentration, the cleaning equipment moves to the side area after cleaning the dirt in front of the rolling brush, so that the rolling brush is in contact with the side area to wipe the dust.
Illustratively, during normal travel of the cleaning apparatus, the roller brush cannot wipe the side area, and the opening side suction opening can adsorb particulate matter in the side area, but cannot clean thoroughly for fine dirt such as dust. Therefore, the cleaning equipment detects the dust concentration in the side area, and when the dust concentration is less than or equal to the preset concentration, the side area is clean and does not need to be wiped by a rolling brush. When the area to be cleaned is large and the cleaning equipment is required to move back and forth, a certain distance can be staggered in two adjacent movements, namely, the whole area to be cleaned is not required to be wiped by the rolling brush.
When the concentration is higher than the preset concentration, it is indicated that dust is much in the side area, and the side suction port cannot completely adsorb the dust, so that the whole area to be cleaned needs to be wiped by the rolling brush. That is, in two adjacent movements, the areas passed by the roller brush must overlap or be seamlessly connected, and cannot be staggered by a certain distance. In addition, although the roll brush wipes the entire area to be cleaned in this case, the side suction port sucks particulate dirt into the recovery tub before wiping, and only a part of fine dust remains, and the roll brush does not contact large-particle dirt, so that the service life of the roll brush can be ensured.
By adopting the scheme, the cleaning equipment determines whether a gap can exist between the rolling brushes between two adjacent times of movement in the reciprocating motion according to the concentration of the dust, so that the cleaning efficiency and the cleaning quality are improved.
In the embodiment of fig. 6 described above, the detection range of the detector is directly in front of the travel direction of the cleaning device. However, the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto, and in other possible implementations, the detection range is, for example, a 360-degree direction of the cleaning device. For example, please refer to fig. 7.
Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of a side area in the cleaning method provided by the embodiment of the present application, in which a complete cleaning device is not illustrated, and only a roll brush, a housing and a detector of the cleaning device are illustrated.
Referring to fig. 7, the detection area is shown as a circle in the figure, and the user can set the radius of the detection area. Or the cleaning equipment determines the detection area according to the current adsorption force. The larger the suction force, the larger the radius of the detection region. The smaller the suction force, the smaller the radius of the detection zone.
After the cleaning apparatus determines the detection area, since the length and position of the roll brush are known, the cleaning apparatus can determine the side area from the detection area. In fig. 7, the area between the two broken lines is the area immediately in front of and immediately behind the cleaning device, and the remaining area is the side area.
Next, an application scenario of the embodiment of the present application will be described by way of example.
In one scenario, the main suction opening is activated after the user has switched on the cleaning appliance. Meanwhile, the cleaning apparatus detects whether the density, area, etc. of the visceral stain particles in the side area satisfy a preset condition using a detector. The dirt particles are, for example, sand, rice dropped by children, mud dropped from dogs coming back outdoors onto the floor, dog hair, etc. When the density of dirty granule surpassed and predetermine density and lie in the round brush both sides, thereby when cleaning equipment promoted motor power, thereby open the side suction mouth of both sides and adsorb dirty granule, the round brush together carries out multi-direction absorption clearance in coordination, has alleviateed the wearing and tearing to the round brush, has shared the pressure of round brush, simultaneously, promotes clean efficiency and user experience.
