Wherein, cleaning robot 500 is provided with drags and wipes 520, cleaning robot 500 accessible sets up in cleaning robot drags to wipe a piece and drags to wipe ground, and drag and wipe specific time or drag and wipe specific area after, cleaning robot can insert the basic station entry that clean basic station formed, in order to charge or to drag and wipe a piece and wash cleaning robot, and at cleaning robot in the in-process of inserting clean basic station, drag the dirty that accumulates on wiping the piece and probably drop at the basic station entrance, especially clean the edge of basic station entrance, make the sanitary dead angle area of basic station entrance great, lead to the easy dirty dirt of basic station entrance to hold the dirt, and after long-term the use, the dirty degree of basic station entrance is more serious, has influenced user experience to cleaning robot.
Based on this, the scheme that this application provided is first confirming the entry area that the base station entry corresponds to before mopping the entry area of clean base station. It should be understood that the entry area corresponding to the base station entrance specifically refers to the projection area of the base station entrance bottom on the ground.
Referring to fig. 2 and fig. 3, fig. 2 is a schematic view illustrating a cleaning method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and fig. 3 is a schematic view illustrating a top view of an inlet area of a cleaning base station according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
As shown in fig. 2 to 3, the cleaning base station 400 includes a first side plate 430 and a second side plate 440 arranged at an interval, and an inlet area 420 formed by the base station inlet 410 and the base station inlet 410 is formed between the first side plate 430 and the second side plate 440, and a cleaning start area may be arranged between the first side plate 430 and the second side plate 440, wherein the first side plate 430 is formed with a first corner area 460, and the second side plate 440 is formed with a second corner area 470. Specifically, the first corner area 460 and the second corner area 470 are located between the first side plate 430 and the second side plate 440, the first corner area 460 is located at a side close to the first side plate 430, and the second corner area 470 is located at a side close to the second side plate 440.
Further, the base station includes a bottom plate 450 connected between the first side plate 430 and the second side plate 440, and the bottom plate 450 and the first side plate 430 and the second side plate 440 cooperate to form the base station inlet 410, and the inlet area 420 corresponding to the base station inlet 410 at least includes a surface of the bottom plate 450.
Step S2: controlling the cleaning robot to drive the mopping piece to move so that at least part of the mopping piece is positioned in the inlet area;
it is known that the mop mounted to the cleaning robot is for example a mop or a roller brush, and that the cleaning robot can clean through the entrance to the base station of the mop or the floor. Specifically, the cleaning robot can drive the mopping piece to move relative to the ground or the cleaning base station at least by controlling the self-running of the cleaning robot, so that the mopping of the entrance of the base station or the ground is realized. Furthermore, the cleaning robot at least comprises a shell and a mopping piece, and the cleaning robot can also drive the mopping piece and the shell to generate relative displacement so as to mop the entrance of the base station or the ground.
It should be understood that when the cleaning robot controls the cleaning robot to drive the mopping piece to displace and/or drive the mopping piece to displace relative to the shell, the mopping piece performs mopping on the ground or a cleaning base station abutted by the mopping piece, and the mopping area of the mopping piece at least comprises the projection area of the mopping piece.
After the inlet area corresponding to the base station inlet is determined, the cleaning robot controls the cleaning robot to drive the mopping piece to move by controlling at least one of the driving of the cleaning robot to drive the mopping piece and the driving of the relative displacement of the mopping piece and the shell, so that at least part of the projection area of the mopping piece is located in the inlet area.
As shown in fig. 4, in some embodiments, step S2 controls the cleaning robot to drive the mop to move, and specifically includes steps S21 to S22:
step S21: determining a cleaning initiation area of the mop in accordance with an entry area, wherein the cleaning initiation area is at least partially coincident with the entry area;
step S22: and executing a second driving action to drive the mopping piece to move to the cleaning starting area.
Specifically, the cleaning robot determines a cleaning start area of the mopping piece according to the inlet area, and then executes a second driving action to drive the mopping piece to move to the cleaning start area, wherein the cleaning robot starts to drive the mopping piece to clean the base station inlet of the cleaning base station at the latest after the mopping piece enters the cleaning start area, so that the cleaning start area is at least partially overlapped with the inlet area.
As shown in fig. 7 to 8, for example, the cleaning initiation area may be located at an edge of the inlet area 420, for example, at an outer side of the first corner area 460 or at an outer side of the second corner area 470 as shown in fig. 8, i.e., the cleaning robot 500 performs the mopping on the base station inlet or the floor by the mopping member 520 from the edge of the inlet area, or may be located inside the inlet area 420, for example, at area a, area B or area C as shown in fig. 7, i.e., the cleaning robot performs the mopping from inside the inlet area 420.
It should be understood that the cleaning robot may start to drive the area abutted by the cleaning mop when the mop moves to the cleaning starting area, that is, during the process that the cleaning robot travels from the external environment of the cleaning base station to the base station inlet of the cleaning base station, the cleaning robot first drives the mop to move to the cleaning starting area determined according to the inlet area, and then starts to clean the inlet area after the mop moves to the cleaning starting area; it is also possible to start driving the wiper before it moves to the cleaning initiation area to clean the area against which the wiper abuts. Specifically, the cleaning robot starts to perform the wiping in a period of time when the wiping member moves to the cleaning start area at the latest.
In some embodiments, the cleaning robot may drive the mop to be raised or depressed in a vertical direction with respect to the housing to switch the mop to a preset raised state or depressed state, wherein the cleaning robot may drive the mop to be switched to the depressed state when driving the mop to clean the area abutted by the mop, to enhance the cleaning effect on the floor or the base station entrance; and when the area abutted by the mopping piece is not cleaned, the mopping piece is driven to be switched to a lifting state, so that the mopping piece attached with dirt is prevented from polluting the passing ground in the running process of the cleaning robot.
In some embodiments, the step S22 of executing the second driving action to drive the mop to move to the cleaning start area includes:
driving the mopping piece to rotate around the center of the cleaning robot so that the mopping piece is positioned between the center of the cleaning robot and the cleaning base station, and driving the mopping piece to the cleaning base station so that the mopping piece moves to a cleaning starting area; or
And driving the mopping piece to rotate around the center of the cleaning robot to move the mopping piece to the cleaning starting area.
As shown in fig. 5, specifically, in the process that the cleaning robot 500 travels along a path designated by a user to clean the passing ground, or in the process that the cleaning robot 500 travels toward a cleaning base station to access the cleaning base station, the travel direction of the cleaning robot 500 is the travel direction shown in fig. 5 (a), in which the mopping piece 520 is located at a side of the center of the cleaning robot 500 away from the travel direction. Based on this, the cleaning robot 500 needs to adjust the angle of the wiper 520 with respect to the center of the cleaning robot 500 when driving the wiper 520 to move to the cleaning start area, so that the wiper 520 is located between the cleaning base station and the center of the cleaning robot 500 as shown in fig. 5 (b).
In some embodiments, the cleaning robot performing the second travel action specifically includes: firstly, the mopping piece is driven to rotate around the center of the cleaning robot so as to adjust the angle of the mopping piece relative to the center of the cleaning robot, so that the mopping piece is positioned between the center of the cleaning robot and a cleaning base station, and then the mopping piece moves to a cleaning starting area by driving the mopping piece to the cleaning base station.
In some embodiments, the second driving motion performed by the cleaning robot specifically includes: firstly, the cleaning robot runs to a first position determined according to a cleaning starting area, and then the mopping piece is driven to rotate around the center of the cleaning robot to adjust the angle of the mopping piece relative to the center of the cleaning robot, so that the mopping piece moves to the cleaning starting area, wherein the first position is determined according to the cleaning starting area.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5, when the cleaning robot 500 is located at the first position, the cleaning robot 500 may move the wiping member 520 to the cleaning start area by only adjusting the angle of the wiping member 520 with respect to the center of the cleaning robot 500, it is understood that the position of the center of the cleaning robot may be used as the position of the cleaning robot, and the distance between the first position and the cleaning start area is the distance between the center of the cleaning robot and the wiping member in the horizontal direction. For example, fig. 5 (b) and 5 (c) show a first position at the center of the cleaning robot 500, and fig. 5 (b) shows a scene where the cleaning robot 500 has driven the mop 520 to reach the cleaning start area, when the positional relationship among the mop 520, the cleaning robot 500, and the cleaning base 520 is as shown in fig. 5 (c), the position of the mop 520 to reach the cleaning start area can be controlled by adjusting only the angle of the mop with respect to the center of the cleaning robot, and the adjusted positional relationship among the mop 520, the cleaning robot 500, and the cleaning base 520 is as shown in fig. 5 (b). Accordingly, when the cleaning robot 500 is located at the first position, the cleaning robot 500 may move the wiper 520 to the cleaning start area by driving only the wiper 520 to rotate around the center of the cleaning robot 500.
It should be understood that by adjusting the angle of the mopping piece relative to the center of the cleaning robot and then driving the cleaning base station, or by driving the mopping piece to the first position and then adjusting the angle of the mopping piece relative to the center of the cleaning robot, the mopping piece can conveniently move into the cleaning starting area and go deep into the inlet of the base station to be fully mopped by the inlet of the base station, and when the inlet of the base station is cleaned, the cleaning robot can conveniently drive the mopping piece to move to a larger extent relative to the cleaning base station, so that the mopping effect of the inlet of the cleaning robot base station is improved, and on the other hand, the size limitation of the cleaning robot and the cleaning base station is reduced.
In some embodiments, controlling the cleaning robot to move the mop such that at least a portion of the mop is located in the entrance area further comprises:
before the mopping piece moves to the cleaning starting area or when the mopping piece moves to the cleaning starting area, the mopping piece is controlled to be switched to a preset pressing-down state.
The cleaning robot can drive the mopping piece to be lifted or pressed down so as to switch the mopping piece into a preset lifting state or a preset pressing state, wherein the cleaning robot can drive the mopping piece to be switched into the pressing state when driving the mopping piece to clean the area abutted to the mopping piece, so that the cleaning force and the cleaning effect on the ground or the base station inlet are improved; and when the ground on the way does not need to be cleaned, the mopping piece is driven to be switched to a lifting state, so that the mopping piece attached with dirt is prevented from polluting the ground on the way in the running process of the cleaning robot.
The cleaning robot further comprises a mop driving part, wherein the mop driving part is at least used for driving the mop to be lifted or pressed relative to the shell so as to switch the mop into a preset lifting state or a preset pressing state.
Specifically, when the cleaning robot moves to the cleaning starting area, the cleaning robot controls the cleaning piece to be switched to a preset pressing state, so that the cleaning force for the entrance of the base station can be improved, and the pollution to the passing ground caused by the dirty cleaning piece in the running process of the cleaning robot can be avoided. The cleaning robot can also control the mop piece to be switched into a preset pressing state before the mop piece moves to the cleaning starting area, so that the area outside the base station inlet can be cleaned, and meanwhile, the cleaning robot also ensures that the mop piece is in the pressing state when the mop piece moves to the inlet area, and the cleaning force to the base station inlet is improved.
And step S3: the mop is driven to move relative to the cleaning station to clean the station inlet.
In some embodiments, the step S3 of driving the wiping member to move relative to the cleaning base station to clean the base station entrance specifically includes:

And controlling the cleaning robot to perform a first rotating action to drive the mopping piece to move, wherein the movement track of the mopping piece is at least partially coincided with the inlet area.
It should be understood that when the cleaning robot performs the first traveling motion and/or the first rotating motion, the mop is driven by the cleaning robot to move at least from the cleaning start area to clean the base station entrance.
Specifically, the cleaning robot may perform a first traveling action to drive the mopping element mounted on the housing to move relative to the base station entrance, so that the mopping element mops an area abutted to the mopping element, may also perform a first rotating action to drive the mopping element mounted on the housing to rotate around the center of the cleaning robot, and may also perform the first traveling action and the first rotating action, so that the relative movement amplitude between the mopping element and the base station entrance is increased, and the cleaning effect on the base station entrance is improved. Wherein, the movement track of the mopping piece driven by the cleaning robot at least partially coincides with the inlet area.
In some embodiments, controlling the cleaning robot to perform a first rotational motion to drive the mop in motion specifically comprises:
controlling the cleaning robot to drive the mopping piece to rotate towards the first side plate; and/or
And controlling the cleaning robot to drive the mopping piece to rotate towards the second side plate.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 6, when the cleaning robot 500 performs the first rotation action, the driving mop 520 may rotate toward the first side plate 430, for example, the driving mop 520 may rotate from the position shown in fig. 6 (a) to the position shown in fig. 6 (b); the mop 520 may also be driven to rotate toward the second side plate 440, specifically, the mop 520 may be driven to rotate from the position shown in fig. 6 (a) to the position shown in fig. 6 (c), or the mop 520 may be driven to rotate toward the first side plate 430 and the second side plate 440, respectively. Further, the cleaning robot 500, when performing the first rotating motion, may further include: the cleaning robot 500 is controlled to rotate toward one of the first side plate 430 and the second side plate 440, and then to rotate toward the other, and then the above two steps are repeated at least once to realize the reciprocating movement of the cleaning robot 500. Specifically, the cleaning robot 500 may perform the first rotation motion by repeatedly switching between the state shown in fig. 6 (b) and the state shown in fig. 6 (c), that is, the cleaning robot 500 repeatedly rotates around the center of the cleaning robot 500 at the cleaning start position to wipe the base station entrance.
It should be understood that when the corresponding size of the entrance area 420 is not surplus with respect to the outer size of the cleaning robot 500, that is, the distance between the first side plate 430 and the second side plate 440 is smaller than the preset distance threshold, the space left in the entrance area for the cleaning robot 500 to perform the first driving motion is small, and at this time, the driving of the mop 520 to move relative to the cleaning base 400 to clean the entrance area 420 may only control the cleaning robot 500 to perform the first rotating motion, specifically referring to fig. 6 (a) (b) (c), for example, the controlling of the cleaning robot 500 to perform the first rotating motion may be to drive the cleaning robot 500 to rotate from the state shown in fig. 6 (a) to the state shown in fig. 6 (b), and then drive the cleaning robot 500 to rotate from the state shown in fig. 6 (b) to the state shown in fig. 6 (c).

Specifically, when the cleaning robot performs the first driving action, the cleaning robot may move from the cleaning start area to the first side plate until the mop moves to a first corner area formed by the first side plate, may also move from the cleaning start area to the first side plate until the mop moves to a second corner area formed by the second side plate, and may also sequentially perform the two actions of moving to the first side plate and moving to the second side plate from the cleaning start area, so as to deeply and sufficiently mop the entrance of the base station.
As shown in fig. 7, for example, the entrance area 420 at least includes an area a, an area B and an area C as shown in fig. 7 (a), and when the cleaning start area is located in the area B as shown in fig. 7 (a), the controlling of the cleaning robot 500 to perform the first driving action to drive the mopping member to move may be controlling of the cleaning robot 500 to switch from the state shown in fig. 7 (B) to the state shown in fig. 7 (C), and then to switch from the state shown in fig. 7 (C) to the state shown in fig. 7 (d), so as to sufficiently clean the entrance of the base station, especially to mop the corners of the base station including the first corner area and the second corner area.
In some embodiments, controlling the cleaning robot to perform the first travel motion to drive the movement of the mop further comprises:
and controlling the cleaning robot to reciprocate between the first side plate and the second side plate.
It should be understood that the first driving action may also be to control the cleaning robot to start from the cleaning starting area, move to the first side plate until the mop moves to the first corner area formed by the first side plate, then move to the second side plate until the mop moves to the second corner area formed by the second side plate, and then repeat the above two steps at least once to realize the reciprocating movement between the first side plate and the second side plate. Specifically, the cleaning robot may perform the first traveling motion by switching between the state shown in fig. 7 (b) and the state shown in fig. 7 (c), that is, the cleaning robot twists between the first side plate and the second side plate to wipe the base station entrance.
In some embodiments, when the mop abuts the first side plate, it is determined that the mop has moved to a first corner region formed by the first side plate; when the mopping piece is abutted against the second side plate, the mopping piece is determined to move to a second corner area formed by the second side plate.
As shown in fig. 8, the cleaning initiation area may be located outside the first corner area 460 formed by the first side plate 430 as shown in fig. 8 (a) or outside the second corner area 470 formed by the second side plate 440 as shown in fig. 8 (b), and the cleaning robot 500 may perform the first driving action by moving along the edge of the entrance area 420 from the cleaning initiation area to wipe the edge of the entrance area 420. Further, the cleaning robot 500 performs the first driving motion further including reciprocating between the first corner region 460 and the second corner region 470 along the edge of the entrance area 420 to sufficiently wipe the edge of the entrance area 420, particularly to enhance the wiping effect on the outer sides of the first corner region 460 and the second corner region 470.
In some embodiments, the cleaning robot includes a housing, a mop movably mounted to the housing for driving the mop to move relative to the cleaning base station, and further includes:
the driving mopping piece rotates relative to the shell.
Specifically, the mopping piece driving piece is further used for driving the mopping piece to rotate relative to the shell, and the cleaning effect of the mopping piece on the base station inlet is improved. Furthermore, the mopping piece driving part can drive the mopping piece to be switched into a preset pressing state, and simultaneously drive the mopping piece to rotate relative to the shell, so that the mopping force of the mopping piece on the base station inlet is improved, and a better cleaning effect is obtained.
In some embodiments, the cleaning initiation area is located outside the first corner area formed by the first side plate or outside the second corner area, and the mopping piece is driven to move relative to the cleaning base station, or only the mopping piece is driven to rotate relative to the shell, so that the mopping piece cleans the outside of the first corner area or the second corner area.
As shown in fig. 9, for example, when the cleaning start area is located outside the first corner area 460 formed by the first side plate, the cleaning robot 500 may drive the wiping member 520 to rotate relative to the housing 510 at the position shown in fig. 9 (a) to wipe the outer side of the first corner area 460, may drive the wiping member 520 to wipe the outer side of the first corner area 460 in the cleaning start area to rotate around the center of the cleaning robot 500 as shown in fig. 9 (a), (b) and (c), and may drive the wiping member 520 to rotate relative to the housing 510 and simultaneously rotate around the center of the cleaning robot 500 to wipe the outer side of the first corner area 460. Similarly, when the cleaning start area is located outside the second corner area 470, the cleaning robot 500 may drive the mop 520 to rotate and/or perform an in-situ rotation with respect to the housing 510.
Further, driving the scrubbing element relative to the cleaning base further comprises: after the outer side of one of the first corner region and the second corner region is wiped, the outer side of the other is moved to clean the outer side of the other.
In some embodiments, before controlling the mop to switch to the preset pressing state, the method further comprises: controlling the mop piece to be switched into a preset lifting state, wherein when the mop piece is controlled to be switched into a pressing state, the lifting state of the mop piece is released;
the method provided by the application further comprises the following steps:
recording at least one first specific position of the mop in a lifting state;
controlling the cleaning robot to perform a third traveling action so as to drive the mopping piece to move to at least one first specific position;
the dragging piece is controlled to be switched into a pressing-down state, and at least one first specific position is dragged and wiped.
Specifically, the cleaning robot can drive the mopping piece to be lifted or pressed down in the vertical direction relative to the shell so as to switch the mopping piece into a preset lifting state or a preset pressing state, wherein when the cleaning robot drives the mopping piece to clean the area abutted by the mopping piece, the cleaning robot can drive the mopping piece to be switched into a pressing state so as to improve the cleaning effect on the ground or the base station inlet; and when the ground is not required to be cleaned, the mopping piece is driven to be switched to the lifting state, so that the mopping piece attached with dirt is prevented from polluting the passing ground in the running process of the cleaning robot.
It should be understood that when the mopping piece is located at the first specific position, the mopping piece is in the lifted state, and at this time, the mopping piece is difficult to mop the floor of the area covered by the mopping piece, that is, when the mopping piece is in the lifted state, the dirt attached to the mopping piece cannot pollute the floor through which the cleaning robot passes, but cannot mop the floor corresponding to the first specific position. Based on this, before controlling the mop to switch to the preset pressing state, the present embodiment further includes: the cleaning robot is characterized in that the mopping piece is controlled to be switched to a preset lifting state so as to prevent the mopping piece from polluting the ground through which the cleaning robot passes, and then the mopping piece is controlled to be switched to a preset pressing state before the mopping piece moves to the cleaning starting area or when the mopping piece moves to the cleaning starting area. The method further comprises the steps of recording at least one first specific position of the mopping piece in a lifting state, controlling the cleaning robot to execute a third running action so as to drive the mopping piece to move to the at least one first specific position, controlling the mopping piece to be switched to a pressing-down state, and mopping the at least one first specific position.
In some embodiments, controlling the cleaning robot to drive the movement of the mop such that at least a portion of the mop is located in the entrance area further comprises:
the rotating speed of the mopping piece is increased within a preset time period starting when the mopping piece is controlled to be switched into a preset pressing state, so that the rotating speed of the mopping piece reaches a preset target rotating speed after the preset time period;
the method provided by the application further comprises the following steps:
recording at least one second specific position where the rotating speed of the mopping piece is less than the target rotating speed;
controlling the cleaning robot to perform a fourth traveling action to drive the mopping piece to move to at least one second specific position;
and controlling the mop piece to be switched to a pressing-down state and cleaning at least one second specific position.
For example, when recording at least one second specific position where the rotation speed of the wiping member is less than the target rotation speed, the method may record that the rotation speed of the wiping member is raised after the cleaning robot controls the wiping member to be switched from the lifting state to the pressing-down state, and the at least one position where the rotation speed of the wiping member is less than the target rotation speed is used as the second specific position, or may record that the rotation speed of the wiping member is raised and the at least one position where the rotation speed of the wiping member is less than the target rotation speed is used as the second specific position in the process that the cleaning robot controls the wiping member to be kept in the pressing-down state and travels towards the base station inlet.
It should be understood that after the cleaning robot controls the mop to switch to the pressing-down state, the cleaning robot needs to increase the rotation speed of the mop to enhance the mopping force and the mopping effect of the mop on the ground or the base station entrance. And after the rotating speed in a preset time period is increased, the rotating speed of the mopping piece can reach a preset target rotating speed, and the cleaning robot is also used for controlling the mopping piece at the target rotating speed to move relative to the cleaning base station so as to clean the inlet of the base station, wherein the rotating speed of the mopping piece is specifically the rotating angular speed of the mopping piece relative to the shell.
It should also be understood that within a preset time period after the cleaning robot controls the mop to switch to the pressing-down state, the rotating speed of the mop is less than the target rotating speed; and when the rotating speed is lower than the target rotating speed, the mopping force and the mopping effect of the mopping piece on the ground abutted by the mopping piece are lower, so that the dirt degree of the ground corresponding to the second specific position cannot meet the cleaning requirement. Based on this, the method provided by the present application further includes: recording at least one second specific position where the rotating speed of the mopping piece is smaller than the target rotating speed, controlling the cleaning robot to execute a fourth traveling action so as to drive the mopping piece to move to the at least one second specific position, controlling the mopping piece to be switched to a pressing-down state, and cleaning the at least one second specific position.
For example, the control of the mop to switch to the pressing-down state and the cleaning of the at least one second specific location and/or the control of the mop to switch to the pressing-down state and the cleaning of the at least one second specific location may be performed after the cleaning of the base station entrance of the base station is completed.
