Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not to be construed as limiting the invention. It should be further noted that, for the convenience of description, only some of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings, not all of the structures.
Before discussing exemplary embodiments in more detail, it should be noted that some exemplary embodiments are described as processes or methods depicted as flowcharts. Although a flowchart may describe the operations (or steps) as a sequential process, many of the operations can be performed in parallel, concurrently, or simultaneously. In addition, the order of the operations may be re-arranged. The process may be terminated when its operations are completed, but may have additional steps not included in the figure. The processes may correspond to methods, functions, procedures, subroutines, and the like. In addition, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present invention may be combined with each other without conflict.
Example one
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a self-driving device system according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the embodiment is applicable to a case where at least two self-driving device systems work together, and the self-driving device includes:
a boundary line 110 for planning a working area of the self-driven device 120;
a self-propelled device 120 that automatically walks within the work area to perform work;
a charging station 130 electrically connected to the boundary line 110 for generating a coded boundary signal and transmitting the coded boundary signal to the boundary line 110;
the encoded boundary signal flows through the boundary line 110, generating a first magnetic field signal;
the charging station 130 includes:
the signal transmitter is used for generating a coding boundary signal by coding according to a preset coding protocol;
the self-driving device 120 receives an external magnetic field signal and acquires a decoding boundary signal in a preset decoding manner; when the decoding boundary signal matches the encoding boundary signal, it is determined that the external magnetic field signal received from the driving device 120 is the first magnetic field signal generated when the encoding boundary signal flows through the boundary line 110.
The boundary line 110 is a closed wire, and both ends of the boundary line 110 can be respectively connected to the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the charging station 130. The area surrounded by the boundary line 110 is a working area of the self-driving device 120.
In addition, the self-propelled device 120 may include at least one tire so that the self-propelled device 120 can walk on the lawn, and a receiving sensor may be disposed on the self-propelled device 120, and may receive the first magnetic field signal in the sensing area and convert the first magnetic field signal into a corresponding electrical signal. The receiving sensor may further comprise a resonant LC frequency selective circuit, which may convert the first magnetic field signal into a voltage signal.
The self-propelled device 120 may be an intelligent mower, or may be a garden-type electric tool such as a snow sweeper, without limitation.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a receiving sensor of one self-propelled device capable of receiving at least three magnetic field signals when three self-propelled device systems provided by an embodiment of the present invention work together, as shown in fig. 2, the receiving sensor includes three self-propelled device systems, further includes three charging stations 130, three boundary lines 110 and three self-propelled devices 120, and the three self-propelled devices 120 can respectively receive magnetic field signals sent by at least three charging stations 130. Due to the fact that boundary lines of different self-driven devices are adjacent, one self-driven device can receive other external magnetic field signals, and therefore interference can be caused to the judgment of the current position. The receiving sensor cannot judge which magnetic field signal is the first magnetic field signal formed by the self-driving equipment system, at least three magnetic field signals can analyze at least three current positions, and misjudgment on the current position of the self-driving equipment can be caused. For example, if the self-driving device 120 in the boundary line 110 erroneously recognizes the magnetic field signal of the adjacent self-driving device system as its own, an error message outside the boundary line may be obtained. Therefore, it is necessary to correctly identify which magnetic field signals are emitted from the boundary line of the self-driven equipment system, so as to avoid generating misjudgment.
The encoded boundary signal propagates in the boundary line, and an electromagnetic field is formed, thereby generating a first magnetic field signal. The voltage signal converted according to the first magnetic field signal may also be an encoded voltage signal, so that the current position of the self-driving device can be determined according to the voltage signal after decoding.
Various magnetic field signals may be present in the operating region of the self-propelled device 120, which may include, for example, magnetic field signals of neighboring self-propelled devices or other external magnetic field signals in the current environment. The self-driven device 120 can acquire all the magnetic field signals in the sensing area, but the position information of the self-driven device 120 can be determined only according to the first magnetic field signal corresponding to the current device.
If the magnetic field signal received by the self-driving device 120 includes other external magnetic field signals, the other external magnetic field signals may include other encoding methods, so that decoding cannot be performed or the decoded boundary signal is not matched with the encoded boundary signal, and a plurality of external magnetic field signals are not converted to obtain a plurality of voltage signals, thereby causing misjudgment of the current position of the self-driving device.
The decoding method and the encoding boundary signal correspond to each other, the decoding boundary signal and the encoding boundary signal match with each other, and the encoding protocol can be set in advance.
The self-propelled device may comprise a receiving sensor for sensing the first magnetic field signal and converting it into a corresponding electrical signal. The receiving sensor may include a magnetic field detecting sensor that detects an alternating magnetic field and converts the alternating magnetic field into an electric signal to be output. In some embodiments, the receiving sensor includes an inductor that induces a magnetic field and generates a corresponding electromotive force to convert the first magnetic field signal into an electrical signal output.
The signal transmitter may be specifically configured to generate the code boundary signal by encoding according to a predetermined encoding protocol.
The signal generator can generate the code boundary signal by coding in a preset digital coding mode, a quadrature amplitude modulation coding mode and a relative phase shift keying mode. The encoding modes of the adjacent self-driven equipment systems can be different, and the first magnetic field signals of the adjacent self-driven equipment systems are reduced from being received and decoded by the current self-driven equipment.
It should be noted that, in practical applications, if the self-driving device 120 can receive two magnetic field signals with relatively large intensity differences, it may trigger to generate a coding update instruction to change the current coding mode and decoding mode.
The self-driven device 120 may decode the first magnetic field signal to obtain a decoded boundary signal, and then determine the current position of the self-driven device 120 according to the decoded signal.
In this embodiment, the current position of the self-driving device may be obtained by decoding, and specifically, information of the self-driving device within the boundary line or outside the boundary line may be obtained.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of the directions of the magnetic fields inside and outside the boundary line according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 3, since the directions of the magnetic fields inside and outside the boundary line are completely opposite, the received waveforms are 180 ° out of phase. In this embodiment, the current position of the self-driving device 120 may be obtained by decoding the boundary signal, and specifically, information of the self-driving device 120 within the boundary line 110 or outside the boundary line 110 may be obtained.
Further, the self-driving device determines that the self-driving device is located outside the working area when the decoding boundary signal is opposite to the encoding boundary signal.
The embodiment discloses a self-driven device system, including: the boundary line is used for planning a working area of the self-driven equipment; a self-driving device automatically walking in the working area to perform work; the charging station is electrically connected with the boundary line and is used for generating a coding boundary signal and sending the coding boundary signal to the boundary line; the coded boundary signal flows through the boundary line to generate a first magnetic field signal; the charging station includes: the signal transmitter is used for generating a coding boundary signal by coding according to a preset coding protocol; the self-driven equipment receives an external magnetic field signal and acquires a decoding boundary signal in a preset decoding mode; when the decoding boundary signal is matched with the encoding boundary signal, determining that the external magnetic field signal received by the self-driving device is a first magnetic field signal generated when the encoding boundary signal flows through the boundary line. According to the technical scheme, the situation that other external magnetic field signals are mistakenly identified as the first magnetic field signals of the magnetic field signal is reduced, the magnetic field signal misjudgment is reduced, and more accurate position information is obtained.

In this embodiment, T1 and T2 may be set according to actual conditions, and in practical applications, if three charging station codes need to be sent at the same time at intervals, time intervals between the three charging station codes may be different from each other, and certainly, the time intervals between the charging station codes may also be different from each other two by two, so as to further increase reliability of the coded boundary signal to the external magnetic field.
