In addition, a shielding part is arranged on the dust discharge port, and the shielding part shields the dust discharge port during non-dust collection, especially during the process of executing a cleaning task from the mobile equipment, so that dust and other garbage objects are sucked into the dust box; during dust removal, the shielding part is moved away, for example, the shielding part can be moved upwards or leftwards or rightwards, at which time the dust discharge opening is exposed, so that the dust discharge opening is in abutment with the dust collection opening. Alternatively, the shielding part may be implemented as an elastic expansion member, which can shield the dust discharge opening in the case of an extended state and can expose the dust discharge opening in the case of a contracted state. Further, as shown in fig. 2, the floor cleaning assembly at least includes a wiping assembly 2011, and in addition, includes a water supply assembly (such as an electromagnetic pump, a pipeline, a check valve, etc.) and a water tank (not shown).

As shown in fig. 5, the workstation 100 includes at least a workstation body 101 and a cleaning tank 1011. In this embodiment, the workstation 100 may be any workstation 100 with a cleaning tank 1011. The workstation body 101 is provided with a receiving cavity adapted to the shape of the body of the self-moving device 200 for receiving the self-moving device 200. Further, as shown in fig. 5, a cleaning tank 1011 is formed at the bottom of the accommodating chamber, and a first liquid storage tank 1012 and a second liquid storage tank 1013 are provided above the accommodating chamber; wherein, the first liquid storage barrel 1012 and the second liquid storage barrel 1013 are both communicated with the cleaning tank 1011, the first liquid storage barrel 1012 is used for providing cleaning liquid to the cleaning tank 1011, and the second liquid storage barrel 1013 is used for containing dirty liquid recovered from the cleaning tank 1011. Based on the cleaning tank 1011 and the first and second

liquid storage tanks

1012 and 1013, the workstation 100 may provide cleaning services for the self-moving apparatus 200 to achieve self-cleaning of the self-moving apparatus 200. Wherein, the first liquid storage tank 1012 may be a cleaning liquid tank, and the second liquid storage tank 1013 may be a sewage tank; alternatively, the second liquid storage tank 1013 may be a cleaning liquid tank, and the first liquid storage tank 1012 is a sewage tank, which is not limited in this embodiment. In the embodiment of the present application, the first liquid storage tank 1012 is taken as a cleaning liquid tank, and the second liquid storage tank 1013 is taken as a sewage tank.

As the mopping task is performed, the dirt level of the wiper assembly 2011 becomes more and more severe, which involves cleaning of the wiper assembly 2011. Specifically, the self-mobile device 200 may return to the workstation 100 and complete docking with the workstation 100, and in the case where the self-mobile device 200 and the workstation 100 complete docking, the wiper assembly 2011 of the self-mobile device 200 may be located in the cleaning tank 1011 of the workstation 100, and at this time, the cleaning tank 1011 is subjected to water draining and pumping operations in cooperation with the first liquid storage tank 1012 and the second liquid storage tank 1013, so that the wiper assembly 2011 is cleaned in the cleaning tank 1011 of the workstation 100. However, the cleaning process of the wiper 2011 may dirty the cleaning tank 1011, and after the cleaning of the wiper 2011 is completed, the cleaning problem of the cleaning tank 1011 may be involved.

At present, one specific cleaning method of the cleaning tank 1011 is to manually hold a brush to clean, and the other method is to drive the wiping component 2011 to rotate in the cleaning tank 1011 by the self-moving device 200, and to clean the wiping component 2011 by friction contacting with the rubbing strip 1017, and simultaneously rub off dirt of the cleaning tank 1011.

The above method of cleaning the cleaning tank 1011 mainly has the following problems: 1. the manual cleaning effect is poor, and the experience effect is poor, if the cleaning tank 1011 is forgotten to clean, the next time the wiping component 2011 is not cleaned, and the mopping effect is poor, so that the performance of the self-moving equipment 200 is affected. 2. The number of water outlets of the workstation 100 is only 1 or 2, the coverage of water discharge is too small, and the water discharge has no force and cannot play a role in flushing; second, the water is not discharged through a water discharge pipeline, so that the water is easily splashed to a position where the water is not splashed, and even the state of a sensor in the water tank is affected, thereby causing malfunction of the self-moving device 200 or the workstation 100.

In this embodiment, in order to solve the cleaning problem of the cleaning tank 1011, the functions of the workstation 100 are expanded, and a self-cleaning function of the cleaning tank 1011 is added to the workstation 100; accordingly, the structure of the workstation 100 is adaptively modified, i.e., structural components adapted to the self-cleaning function of the cleaning bath 1011 are added.

As shown in fig. 3 and 4, in the present embodiment, a second water outlet pipe 1014 is provided along the side wall of the cleaning tank 1011, which corresponds to a water outlet pipe arranged around the cleaning tank 1011, and the first liquid storage tank 1012 communicates with a first water outlet pipe (not shown in the drawings), the first water outlet pipe extending to the cleaning tank 1011 and communicating with the second water outlet pipe 1014, so that the cleaning liquid in the first liquid storage tank 1012 is transferred into the cleaning tank 1011 through the first water outlet pipe and the second water outlet pipe 1014. Further, as shown in fig. 3, the second water outlet pipeline 1014 is provided with a plurality of water outlets 1019 that can discharge water toward the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011, so that the liquid entering the second water outlet pipeline 1014 can be sprayed into the cleaning tank 1011 through the plurality of water outlets 1019. Accordingly, the second liquid storage tub 1013 is communicated with a pumping pipe extending into the cleaning tank 1011 for pumping the liquid in the cleaning tank 1011 into the second liquid storage tub 1013.

Based on the above structure, the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011 can be cleaned by means of the plurality of water outlets 1019 on the second water outlet pipe 1014. Specifically, the liquid in the first liquid storage tank 1012 can be controlled to be delivered to the second water outlet pipeline 1014 communicated with the first water outlet pipeline via the first water outlet pipeline, and then the cleaning liquid is delivered to the cleaning tank 1011 via a plurality of water outlets 1019 on the second water outlet pipeline 1014 which are towards the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011, so that the chassis of the cleaning tank 1011 can be washed, and an automatic cleaning function is achieved. In addition, through adjusting the water outlet pressure, under the effect of water pressure, cleaning liquid can be sprayed to the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011 from a plurality of water outlets 1019, so that the cleaning liquid sprayed from each water outlet 1019 can play a cleaning role on the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011, dirt is automatically washed down, a brush is not needed to be used manually to clean the cleaning tank 1011, the performance of the workstation 100 is enhanced, the hands of a user are liberated, and the cleaning efficiency and the user experience are improved. Further, the cleaned liquid is pumped to the second liquid storage barrel 1013 through the water pumping pipeline extending to the cleaning tank 1011, thereby realizing the collection of the cleaned sewage, and completing the cleaning task of the cleaning tank 1011.

Further, as shown in fig. 5, a charging part 1016 for charging the self-mobile device 200 is provided on an inner sidewall of the accommodating chamber, for providing a charging function for the self-mobile device 200. The workstation 100 is provided with a signal transmitter, such as an infrared signal transmitter, for guiding the self-mobile device 200 to perform recharging docking, and is used for externally transmitting recharging guiding signals; the self-mobile device 200 is provided with a signal receiver for receiving the recharging guiding signal, based on which, in the case that the self-mobile device 200 needs to recharge the self-mobile device 100, the workstation 100 can control the signal transmitter to transmit the recharging guiding signal to the outside, and the self-mobile device 200 can move to the workstation 100 under the guidance of the recharging guiding signal transmitted by the workstation 100 and complete the docking with the charging part 1016, so as to charge the electric storage device of the self-mobile device 200.

Further, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, the bottom of the workstation 100 is provided with a base tray 102, wherein the cleaning tank 1011, the second water outlet pipeline 1014 and other components are all arranged on the base tray 102; in addition, the base tray 102 includes a ramp engaged with the cleaning tank 1011 for climbing up the ramp from the mobile device 200 into the receiving cavity. Alternatively, the ramp may be integrally formed with the wash tank 1011. In the process of returning to the workstation 100, the self-moving device 200 can climb into the accommodating cavity through the slope body of the base tray 102 and enter the accommodating cavity beyond the side wall of the cleaning tank 1011, so as to complete the docking with the charging part 1016. To facilitate docking of the self-mobile device 200 with the charging portion 1016, the obstruction of the self-mobile device 200 by the second water outlet pipeline 1014 is reduced, and in some alternative embodiments of the present application, the sidewall of the cleaning tank 1011 is divided into two parts, i.e., a first sidewall section and a second sidewall section based on the charging portion 1016, the second water outlet pipeline 1014 is disposed inside the second sidewall section, the first sidewall section is a section of the sidewall located below the charging portion 1016, and the second sidewall section is the rest of the sidewall sections except the first sidewall section. Because the second water outlet pipeline 1014 is not added to the sidewall section below the charging section 1016, docking between the self-mobile device 200 and the charging section 1016 is facilitated.

In the case of recharging or requiring self-cleaning, the self-moving device needs to climb along a slope (as shown in fig. 3) on the base tray 102 of the workstation until entering the accommodation chamber, during which, in order not to increase the climbing height of the self-moving device, in some alternative embodiments of the present application, the second water outlet pipeline 1014 is disposed inside the side wall along the side wall of the cleaning tank 1011, and the height of the second water outlet pipeline 1014 does not exceed the height of the side wall, on one hand, avoiding liquid spraying outside the cleaning tank 1011, and on the other hand, since no increase in the height of the side wall is caused by the provision of the second water outlet pipeline 1014, the climbing burden of the self-moving device 200 when entering the accommodation chamber is not additionally increased, so as to be compatible with the ability of the self-moving device 200 to climb or span obstacles.

In this embodiment, in order to facilitate cleaning of the wiper assembly 2011, as shown in fig. 3, a plurality of scrubbing strips 1017 are disposed at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011, so that the wiper assembly 2011 can be driven to rotate by the self-moving device 200 when cleaning the wiper assembly 2011, and friction is generated between the wiper assembly 2011 and the scrubbing strips 1017 during rotation of the wiper assembly 2011, thereby cleaning the wiper assembly 2011. In the embodiment of the present application, the arrangement of the positions of the second water outlet pipe 1014 and the scrubbing strip 1017 is not limited, and for example, the following two methods may be used but are not limited:

Mode 1: the second water outlet line 1014 is in contact with the rub strip 1017. At this time, in order to avoid friction between the second water outlet pipe and the rubbing strip 1017, the rubbing strip 1017 is stationary to damage the second water outlet pipe; accordingly, when the wiping component 2011 is cleaned, the mobile device 200 drives the wiping component 2011 to act, and friction is generated between the wiping component 2011 and the fixed rubbing strip 1017, so that the wiping component 2011 is cleaned.

Mode 2: a gap is left between the second water outlet line 1014 and the rub strip 1017. The size of the gap is not limited, and it is preferable that the gap ensures that the second water outlet pipe 1014 does not protrude beyond the side wall. At this time, the rubbing strip is installed in a manner as shown in fig. 3, and the rubbing strip 1017 may be fixed at this time; alternatively, the rub bar 1017 may rotate; alternatively, the brush tray 10110 is mounted in the cleaning tank 1011, and at this time, the rubbing strip 1017 is fixedly mounted on the brush tray 10110 as shown in fig. 6, and the rubbing strip 1017 rotates with the rotation of the brush tray 10110. In an alternative embodiment, if the rubbing strip 1017 can rotate, the rubbing assembly 2011 can be fixed when rubbing against the rubbing assembly 2011, and the workstation 100 drives the rubbing strip 1017 to rotate in a certain direction to clean the rubbing assembly 2011. In yet another alternative embodiment, if the scrubbing bar 1017 is rotatable, when friction is generated, the workstation 100 drives the brush plate 10110 to rotate in a first direction, and the self-moving device 200 simultaneously drives the wiper assembly 2011 to rotate in a second direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction are opposite or opposite. Wherein, the wiping component 2011 and the brush disc 10110 rotate along opposite directions or opposite directions simultaneously, which can increase the mutual friction force between the two, thus being beneficial to improving the cleaning efficiency.

Further alternatively, in the case of rotation of the brush wheel 10110, the cleaning parameters may also include the rotation speed of the brush wheel 10110 and the rotation time of the brush wheel 10110 during each cleaning, in which case the self-moving device 200 may further determine the rotation speed of the wiper assembly 2011 adapted to the rotation speed of the brush wheel 10110 during each cleaning, and rotate the wiper assembly 2011 in the second direction according to the determined rotation speed of the wiper assembly 2011. Optionally, the rotational speed of the wiper assembly 2011 used at each wash is the same as the rotational speed of the brush wheel 10110, and accordingly, the brush wheel 10110 rotates for less than or equal to the duration of rotation of the wiper assembly 2011. Alternatively, the rotational speed of wiper assembly 2011 may be an integer multiple of the rotational speed of brush wheel 10110.

On the basis of the embodiment that the wiping component 2011 and the brush disc 10110 rub against each other to perform cleaning, the rotation directions of the wiping component 2011 and the brush disc 10110 can be alternately changed in opposite directions according to a certain rule, wherein the rule can be that the rotation directions of the wiping component 2011 and the brush disc 10110 can be periodically changed (the rotation direction is changed every time a period of rotation), or changed according to the rotation times (the rotation direction is changed every time N times of rotation), or changed according to the cleaning times (the rotation direction is changed every time of cleaning), and the rotation mode can clean the wiping component 2011 more cleanly and has higher cleaning efficiency. For example, when friction is generated, during a first cycle, the workstation 100 drives the brush wheel 10110 to rotate in a first direction, and the self-moving device 200 simultaneously drives the wiper assembly 2011 to rotate in a second direction, the first direction and the second direction being opposite or opposite; in a second cycle, the workstation 100 drives the brush wheel 10110 to change direction and rotate in the opposite direction of the first direction, and the self-moving device 200 simultaneously drives the wiping component 2011 to change direction and rotate in the opposite direction of the second direction; by the next cycle, the brush wheel 10110 and wiper assembly 2011 again change direction of rotation, and so on. Alternatively, when friction is generated, the workstation 100 drives the brush wheel 10110 to rotate N times in a first direction, and simultaneously drives the wiper assembly 2011 to rotate N times in a second direction from the mobile device 200, wherein the first direction is opposite or opposite to the second direction; subsequently, the workstation 100 drives the brush wheel 10110 to change direction and rotate N times in the opposite direction of the first direction, and simultaneously drives the wiper assembly 2011 to change direction and rotate N times in the opposite direction of the second direction from the mobile device 200; the brush wheel 10110 and wiper assembly 2011 then again change direction of rotation, and so on. Alternatively, during friction, the workstation 100 drives the brush wheel 10110 to rotate in a first direction during a first cleaning operation, and simultaneously drives the wiper assembly 2011 to rotate in a second direction from the mobile device 200, wherein the first direction is opposite or opposite to the second direction; during the second cleaning, the workstation 100 drives the brush plate 10110 to change the direction of rotation N times along the direction opposite to the first direction, and the self-moving device 200 simultaneously drives the wiping component 2011 to change the direction and rotate N times along the direction opposite to the second direction; the brush wheel 10110 and wiper assembly 2011 then again change direction of rotation, and so on.

Further, in this embodiment, when the wiper assembly 2011 is cleaned, cleaning liquid needs to be conveyed into the cleaning tank 1011, in order to avoid overflow caused by excessive liquid in the cleaning tank 1011 during cleaning, a closed liquid level sensor is mounted on a side wall of the cleaning tank 1011, a detection end of the closed liquid level sensor is exposed in the cleaning tank 1011 and is used for detecting the liquid level in the cleaning tank 1011, when the detected liquid level reaches a set liquid level height, the workstation 100 may send out alarm information, or may control the first liquid storage tank 1012 to stop conveying liquid into the cleaning tank 1011, or may also control the pumping system to pump part or a small amount of liquid in the cleaning tank 1011 into the second liquid storage tank 1013 so as to prevent liquid from overflowing. In this embodiment, the closed liquid level sensor is used to solve the problem that the liquid splashes onto the inner wall to cause false triggering of the sensor when the cleaning liquid is conveyed in the cleaning tank 1011, and the probability of false triggering of the sensor caused by liquid splashing onto the inner wall is greatly reduced.

Further, in this embodiment, the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011 is a slope, the lower end of the slope is close to a water pumping port (not shown in the figure) of the water pumping pipeline, as shown in fig. 3, a mounting hole 1018 is formed on the side wall of the cleaning tank 1011 at a position close to and avoiding the water pumping port, the opening of the mounting hole 1018 is communicated with the cleaning tank 1011, and the closed liquid level sensor is mounted in the mounting hole 1018 with its detection end facing the opening of the mounting hole 1018. The liquid level sensor is mounted on the mounting hole 1018 which is communicated with the cleaning tank 1011, so that the liquid can be further prevented from splashing on the liquid level sensor when the liquid flows into the cleaning tank 1011 from a plurality of water outlets 1019 under a certain pressure, and the liquid level sensor can be prevented from being erroneously reacted. For example, when the liquid is released to the cleaning tank 1011, the liquid level does not reach the preset position yet, if the liquid splashes onto the liquid level sensor, the liquid level sensor generates an alarm signal by a false reaction, and after receiving the alarm signal, the controller controls the first liquid storage barrel 1012 to stop releasing the liquid to the cleaning tank 1011, so that the cleaning effect of the self-cleaning system may be reduced due to the fact that the wiping component 2011 and the cleaning tank 1011 are not cleaned cleanly because of insufficient liquid.

Further, in order to meet the detection requirement of the liquid level in the cleaning tank 1011, the installation height of the installation hole 1018 on the side wall of the cleaning tank 1011 may be the highest liquid level of the cleaning tank 1011, so that the liquid level sensor may detect any liquid level height within the range where the cleaning tank 1011 can accommodate the maximum amount of liquid. Further alternatively, in this embodiment, there may be a plurality of mounting holes 1018, as shown in fig. 3, each side is provided with 2 mounting holes 1018, and each mounting hole 1018 may be provided with a closed liquid level detection sensor, which is beneficial to more accurately and timely detecting the liquid level in the cleaning tank 1011.

In the above or below embodiments of the present application, the second water outlet pipe 1014 is provided around the cleaning tank 1011, and the second water outlet pipe 1014 is provided with a plurality of water outlets 1019, so that the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011 can be rinsed by means of the force of spraying the liquid to the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011 through the plurality of water outlets 1019. The greater the outlet pressure of the outlet 1019, the better the cleaning or flushing effect of the spray. In order to flexibly adjust the spraying force of the water outlet 1019, in the present embodiment, an electromagnetic pump (not shown in the figure) is installed on the water outlet path of the first liquid storage barrel 1012, for adjusting the water outlet pressure of the first liquid storage barrel 1012. The electromagnetic pump may be installed at an outlet position of the first liquid storage barrel 1012; alternatively, the electromagnetic pump may be mounted on the first water outlet line; alternatively, the electromagnetic pump may be installed at the interface 1015 (as shown in fig. 3) of the first water outlet pipeline and the second water outlet pipeline 1014, which is not limited in this embodiment. Accordingly, a diaphragm pump may be installed on the pumping path for adjusting pumping force, and the liquid in the cleaning tank 1011 may be pumped into the second liquid storage tank 1013 by the diaphragm pump.

In this embodiment, when the workstation 100 is first used after leaving the factory, impurities may be present in the cleaning tank 1011, and in order to ensure the cleaning effect of the cleaning tank 1011 using the workstation 100 for the first time for cleaning the wiper member 2011, it is necessary to clean the cleaning tank 1011 when it is first used. The workstation 100 may collect the degree of contamination of the washing bath 1011 by a contamination degree detection sensor installed inside the washing bath 1011; the controller of the workstation 100 generates a third cleaning parameter based on the degree of contamination of the cleaning tank 1011; accordingly, the controller of the workstation 100 is also configured to: when the workstation 100 is first started, the first liquid storage barrel 1012 and the second liquid storage barrel 1013 are controlled to alternately perform water discharging and water pumping operations on the cleaning tank 1011 according to the third cleaning parameter to perform a cleaning task on the cleaning tank 1011.

In the present embodiment, the source of the first cleaning parameters used by the workstation 100 to perform the cleaning task of the cleaning tank is not limited. The first cleaning parameter may be a default parameter previously built into the workstation 100, which is adopted when performing a cleaning task; alternatively, the user may reset the cleaning parameters via the APP, and use the reset cleaning parameters in performing the cleaning task.

Specifically, the third cleaning parameters may include a third number of cleaning times, a third cleaning time, a third water pressure used at each cleaning. The third cleaning time may be the total cleaning time or the cleaning time used for each cleaning. When the number of times of washing is plural, the washing time per time and the third water pressure used for each washing may be the same or different. In an alternative embodiment, under the condition that the cleaning times are multiple times, the pollution degree of the cleaning tank 1011 is highest, so the corresponding cleaning time can be relatively longer, the third water pressure used during each cleaning is relatively larger, so as to improve the cleaning force of the first cleaning, and along with the increase of the cleaning times, the pollution degree of the cleaning tank 1011 is gradually reduced, the corresponding cleaning time and the third water pressure used during each cleaning can be reduced, so the burden of the workstation 100 is lightened, the electric quantity and the water resource are saved, and the overall cleaning efficiency is improved. In another alternative embodiment, during the first cleaning, since the dirt level of the cleaning tank 1011 is the highest, the first corresponding cleaning time is the longest, and the third water pressure used during each cleaning is the largest, so as to improve the cleaning force of the first cleaning; as the number of cleaning times increases, the dirt degree of the cleaning tank 1011 gradually decreases, so that the corresponding cleaning time and the third water pressure used during each cleaning are reduced; when the cleaning is performed for the last time, the dirt degree of the cleaning tank 1011 is the lowest, the corresponding cleaning time and the third water pressure used during each cleaning are the smallest, the cleaning is performed for the other times except the first cleaning and the last cleaning, the corresponding cleaning time is the same, the third water pressure used during each cleaning is the same, so that the burden of the workstation 100 is reduced, the electric quantity and the water resource are saved, and the overall cleaning efficiency is improved. Of course, the time of each cleaning may be constant, or the third water pressure used during each cleaning may be constant, depending on the cleaning parameters set by the workstation 100.

More specifically, the controller of the workstation 100 is configured to, when controlling the first liquid storage tank 1012 and the second liquid storage tank 1013 to alternately perform the water discharge and water pumping operation on the cleaning tank 1011 to perform the cleaning task on the cleaning tank 1011 according to the third cleaning parameter: if the cleaning parameters include the number of times of cleaning and the number of times of cleaning is multiple times, under the condition that the number of times of cleaning is not 0, controlling the first liquid storage barrel 1012 to put clean water into the cleaning tank 1011 so as to clean the cleaning tank 1011; in each cleaning process, the controller can also control the first liquid storage barrel 1012 to drain water according to the third water pressure according to each cleaning time and the third water pressure contained in the cleaning parameters until the corresponding cleaning time is over, and then control the water pumping system to suck the sewage in the cleaning tank 1011; then, the cleaning times are reduced by 1, and whether the cleaning times after the reduction of 1 are 0 is judged; if the value is 0, ending the cleaning operation; if not, the operation of controlling the first liquid storage barrel 1012 to put clean water into the cleaning tank 1011 and the subsequent operation are continuously performed until the number of cleaning times is 0.

After the first cleaning of the cleaning tank 1011 is completed, the workstation 100 may be put into service. In actual use, when the self-moving device 200 requires cleaning of the wiper assembly 2011, a cleaning command may be issued to the controller of the workstation 100. Alternatively, the self-mobile device 200 may first complete docking with the workstation 100, and after successful docking, send a cleaning instruction to the workstation 100; alternatively, the cleaning command may be sent to the workstation 100 first, and then docking with the workstation 100 may be completed. In either case, the controller of the workstation 100 is also configured to: in the case that the self-mobile device 200 and the workstation 100 are docked, according to the cleaning instruction sent by the self-mobile device 200, the first liquid storage barrel 1012 and the second liquid storage barrel 1013 are controlled to alternately perform the water outlet operation and the water pumping operation on the cleaning tank 1011 according to the second cleaning parameter, and the cleaning task is performed on the wiping component 2011 in cooperation with the rotation of the wiping component 2011 on the self-mobile device 200.

Similarly, in the present embodiment, the source of the second cleaning parameter used by the workstation 100 to perform the cleaning task of the wiper 2011 is not limited. In an alternative embodiment, the second cleaning parameter may be a default parameter previously built into the self-mobile device 200, and the same cleaning parameter is used for each cleaning task; alternatively, the user may reset the cleaning parameters via the APP, but the same cleaning parameters are used for each cleaning task before the next set operation.

Further alternatively, the second cleaning parameters include a second number of times of cleaning and a second water pressure for each cleaning, and the controller is specifically configured to, when performing a cleaning task on the wiper assembly 2011: the first liquid storage barrel 1012 and the second liquid storage barrel 1013 are controlled to alternately perform water discharging and water pumping operations on the cleaning tank 1011 according to the second cleaning times, and when the first liquid storage barrel 1012 is controlled to perform water discharging operations on the cleaning tank 1011 each time, the first liquid storage barrel 1012 is controlled by the electromagnetic pump to spray cleaning liquid to the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011 through the water outlet 1019 on the second water outlet pipeline 1014 at the second water pressure.

Specifically, the self-moving device 200 may collect the contamination level of the wiper assembly 2011; generating a second cleaning parameter according to the pollution degree of the wiping component 2011; a cleaning instruction comprising the second cleaning parameter is then sent from the mobile device 200 to the workstation 100. Alternatively, the workstation 100 collects the contamination level of the wiper assembly 2011; depending on the contamination level of the wiper assembly 2011, the workstation 100 itself generates the second cleaning parameter. Regardless of the generation mode of the second cleaning parameter, after receiving the cleaning instruction, the controller of the workstation 100 controls the water delivery system to deliver cleaning liquid from the clean water bucket in the workstation 100 to the cleaning tank 1011 according to the second cleaning parameter contained in the cleaning instruction, so as to clean the wiping component 2011; after each cleaning, the pumping system is controlled to feed the dirty liquid in the cleaning tank 1011 into the dirty tank in the workstation 100.

More specifically, the second cleaning parameters may include at least one of a second number of cleaning operations, a second cleaning time, a water usage amount, a rotational speed of the brush wheel 10110 (the rub strip 1017 or the wiper assembly 2011) in the cleaning tank 1011, and a second water pressure for each cleaning operation. The second cleaning time may be the total cleaning time or the cleaning time used for each cleaning. In the case of multiple washes, the time of each wash, the amount of water used, the rotational speed of the brush 10110 (the rub strip 1017 or the wiper assembly 2011), and the second water pressure used for each wash may be the same or different. In an alternative embodiment, in the case that the number of cleaning times is multiple, since the dirt degree of the wiper 2011 is the highest during the first cleaning, the corresponding cleaning time can be relatively long, the water consumption is relatively large, the rotation speed of the brush dish 10110 (the rubbing strip 1017 or the wiper 2011) and the second water pressure used for each cleaning are relatively large, so as to improve the cleaning force of the first cleaning, and as the number of cleaning times increases, the dirt degree of the wiper 2011 gradually decreases, the corresponding cleaning time, the water consumption, the rotation speed of the brush dish 10110 (the rubbing strip 1017 or the wiper 2011) and the second water pressure used for each cleaning can be reduced accordingly, so as to reduce the load of the workstation 100, save electric quantity and water resources, and improve the overall cleaning efficiency. In another alternative embodiment, in the case that the number of cleaning times is multiple, since the dirt degree of the wiper member 2011 is the highest during the first cleaning, the corresponding cleaning time is the longest, the water consumption is the largest, the rotation speed of the brush plate 10110 (the rubbing strip 1017 or the wiper member 2011) and the second water pressure used for each cleaning are the largest, so as to improve the cleaning force of the first cleaning; since the wiper assembly 2011 has the lowest dirt level at the last cleaning, the corresponding cleaning time is the shortest, the water consumption is the smallest, the rotation speed of the brush plate 10110 (the rubbing strip 1017 or the wiper assembly 2011) and the second water pressure used for each cleaning are the smallest; the remaining several washes except the first and last wash may be the same for each corresponding wash time, water usage, rotational speed of the brush dish 10110 (the rub strip 1017 or the wiper assembly 2011), and second water pressure used for each wash. Of course, the time per wash may be fixed, or the amount of water per wash may be fixed, or the rotational speed of the brush wheel 10110 (the rub strip 1017 or the wiper assembly 2011) per wash may be fixed, or the second water pressure per wash may be fixed, depending on the wash parameters set from the mobile device 200.

After each cleaning of the wiper assembly 2011, the controller of the workstation may also self-clean the cleaning tank in order to facilitate the next cleaning of the wiper assembly 2011 directly. The controller is further configured to: after the cleaning task of the self-moving device is completed, the first liquid storage barrel 1012 and the second liquid storage barrel 1013 are controlled to alternately perform water discharging and water pumping operations on the cleaning tank 1011 according to the first cleaning parameter so as to perform the cleaning task on the cleaning tank 1011; wherein, the cleaning liquid in the first liquid storage barrel 1012 is sprayed to the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011 through a plurality of water outlets 1019 on the second water outlet pipeline 1014, and in the process, the cleaning liquid can scour the dirt on the bottom of the cleaning tank.

Similarly, the manner in which the second cleaning parameters are derived for the workstation 100 to perform the cleaning task of the wiper assembly 2011 is not limited. In an alternative embodiment, the second cleaning parameter may be a default parameter previously built into the self-mobile device 200, and the same cleaning parameter is used for each cleaning task; alternatively, the user may reset the cleaning parameters via the APP, but the same cleaning parameters are used for each cleaning task before the next set operation. The workstation 100 may collect the degree of contamination of the bottom of the washing tank 1011 by a contamination degree detection sensor installed inside the washing tank 1011; the controller of the workstation 100 generates a first cleaning parameter based on the degree of contamination of the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011.

Further, regardless of the manner in which the first cleaning parameters are obtained, the first cleaning parameters may include a first number of cleaning operations and a first water pressure for each cleaning operation. Based on this, the controller, when performing a cleaning task for the cleaning tank 1011 according to the first cleaning parameter, is specifically configured to: the first liquid storage barrel 1012 and the second liquid storage barrel 1013 are controlled to alternately perform the water discharging and pumping operation on the cleaning tank 1011 according to the first number of cleaning times, and the first liquid storage barrel 1012 is controlled by the electromagnetic pump to spray the cleaning liquid to the bottom of the cleaning tank 1011 through the water outlet 1019 on the second water outlet pipeline 1014 at the first water pressure every time the first liquid storage barrel 1012 is controlled to perform the water discharging operation on the cleaning tank 1011.

Specifically, the first cleaning parameters may include a first number of cleaning times, a cleaning time, and a first water pressure used at each cleaning. The first cleaning time may be a total cleaning time or a cleaning time used for each cleaning. When the number of times of washing is plural, the washing time per time and the first water pressure used per washing may be the same or different. In an alternative embodiment, under the condition that the number of cleaning times is multiple, the pollution degree of the cleaning tank 1011 is highest, so the corresponding cleaning time can be relatively longer, the first water pressure used during each cleaning is relatively larger, so as to improve the cleaning strength of the first cleaning, and as the number of cleaning times is increased, the pollution degree of the cleaning tank 1011 is gradually reduced, the corresponding cleaning time and the first water pressure used during each cleaning can be reduced, so the burden of the workstation 100 is reduced, the electric quantity and the water resource are saved, and the overall cleaning efficiency is improved. In another alternative embodiment, under the condition that the cleaning times are multiple times, as the dirt degree of the cleaning tank 1011 is the highest during the first cleaning, the corresponding cleaning time can be the longest, the first water pressure used during the cleaning is the largest, the water outlet 1019 has the largest water outlet force, the flushing effect is the largest, and more dirty objects or stains can be flushed, so that the cleaning force of the first cleaning is improved; since the dirt degree of the cleaning tank 1011 is the lowest in the last cleaning, the corresponding cleaning time can be the shortest, and the first water pressure used in the cleaning is the smallest; the cleaning times of the other times except the first cleaning and the last cleaning are the same, the corresponding cleaning time of each time is the same, and the first water pressure used during each cleaning is the same, so that the burden of the workstation 100 is lightened, the electric quantity and the water resource are saved, and the overall cleaning efficiency is improved. Of course, the time of each cleaning may be fixed, or the first water pressure used at each cleaning may be fixed, depending on the cleaning parameters set by the workstation 100.

More specifically, the controller, when controlling the first liquid storage tank 1012 and the second liquid storage tank 1013 to alternately perform the water discharging and pumping operation on the cleaning tank 1011 according to the first cleaning parameter, is specifically configured to: if the cleaning parameters include the number of times of cleaning and the number of times of cleaning is multiple times, under the condition that the number of times of cleaning is not 0, controlling the first liquid storage barrel 1012 to put clean water into the cleaning tank 1011 so as to clean the cleaning tank 1011; in each cleaning process, the controller can also control the first liquid storage barrel 1012 to drain water according to the first water pressure according to each cleaning time and the first water pressure contained in the cleaning parameters until the corresponding cleaning time is over, and then control the water pumping system to suck the sewage in the cleaning tank 1011; then, the cleaning times are reduced by 1, and whether the cleaning times after the reduction of 1 are 0 is judged; if the value is 0, ending the cleaning operation; if not, the operation of controlling the first liquid storage barrel 1012 to put clean water into the cleaning tank 1011 and the subsequent operation are continuously performed until the number of cleaning times is 0.

Here, since the cleaning tank 1011 is relatively easy to clean when it is first used, the third cleaning frequency is small and the third water pressure is also small; since the cleaning tank 1011 is dirty after the cleaning of the wiper assembly 2011, it is required to clean the cleaning tank 1011 several times more and a larger first water pressure is required. Therefore, the third washing number is smaller than the first washing number, and the third water pressure may be smaller than the first water pressure. Since cleaning is performed mainly by friction of the wiper assembly 2011 with the rub strip 1017 when cleaning the wiper assembly 2011, no excessive water pressure is required. Thus, the second water pressure may be less than the first water pressure. According to the embodiment, the cleaning times and the water pressure are adjusted according to different working modes, so that the purposes of saving cleaning liquid and electric energy can be achieved.

The workstation 100 provided in the embodiments of the present application may operate in various physical environments, either in a normal temperature or high heat environment above zero (without icing), or in an environment below zero. It is considered that in some low temperature environments, since the liquid in the first and second

liquid storage tanks

1012 and 1013 may be frozen, the cleaning function of the workstation 100 may be degraded or not be used normally, and even the first and second

liquid storage tanks

1012 and 1013 may be burst in case that the liquid in the interior is frozen. In this embodiment, in order to avoid the damage to the workstation 100 in the low temperature environment, a temperature sensor (not shown) is installed on the workstation 100 to measure the temperature of the environment in which the workstation 100 is located in real time and report the temperature to the workstation 100. The temperature sensor may be mounted outside the workstation body 101; or, mounted inside the workstation body 101; alternatively, the present embodiment is not limited to being mounted on any component of the workstation 100 that can carry a temperature sensor.

Further optionally, when the temperature sensor detects that the temperature of the environment is lower than the preset temperature, the workstation 100 may send an alarm signal to remind the user to drain the residual liquid in the first water outlet pipeline, the second water outlet pipeline and the water pumping pipeline completely, and drain the liquid in the first liquid storage barrel 1012 and the second liquid storage barrel 1013 completely, so as to protect the water outlet pipeline, the water pumping pipeline and the liquid storage barrel.

Or alternatively, the process may be performed,

further alternatively, the workstation 100 may also generate the antifreeze drainage parameter when the temperature sensor detects that the temperature of the environment is lower than the set temperature; the first liquid storage barrel 1012 is controlled to execute the anti-freezing water outlet operation according to the anti-freezing water outlet parameters, so that the first water outlet pipeline, the second water outlet pipeline and liquid in the first liquid storage barrel 1012 are discharged cleanly, damage to the water outlet pipeline and the first liquid storage barrel 1012 caused by freezing of the liquid is avoided, and the service life of the workstation 100 is prolonged. Accordingly, the workstation 100 may further generate an anti-freezing pumping parameter when the temperature sensor detects that the temperature of the environment is lower than the preset temperature, and control the second liquid storage tank 1013 to perform an anti-freezing pumping operation according to the anti-freezing pumping parameter, so as to pump the cleaning tank 1011 and the liquid remaining in the water pumping pipeline back into the second liquid storage tank 1013, thereby avoiding damage to the cleaning tank 1011 and the water outlet pipeline caused by freezing of the liquid. Further, the liquid in the second liquid storage tub 1013 may be manually emptied by a user.

In the present embodiment, the source mode of the antifreeze drainage parameter and the antifreeze pumping parameter used by the workstation 100 to control the first liquid storage tank 1012 and the second liquid storage tank 1013 to perform the antifreeze water discharging and antifreeze pumping operation is not limited when the environment in which the workstation 100 is located is lower than the preset temperature. In an alternative embodiment, the antifreeze drainage parameters and antifreeze pumping parameters may be default parameters previously built into the workstation 100; or, the user can reset the anti-freezing drainage parameter and the anti-freezing pumping parameter through the APP, but before the next setting operation, the same anti-freezing drainage parameter and the same anti-freezing pumping parameter are adopted for each task.

Specifically, when the workstation 100 controls the first liquid storage tank 1012 to perform the water outlet operation according to the antifreeze drainage parameter, specifically, controls the first liquid storage tank 1012 to convey the cleaning liquid to the cleaning tank 1011 until all the cleaning liquid is emptied; at the same time, the pumping system is controlled to pump the liquid in the cleaning tank 1011 into the wastewater tank in the workstation 100 according to the antifreeze pumping parameters.

More specifically, the antifreeze drainage parameters may include water outlet time, water outlet pressure, etc., and the values of these parameters are not limited in this embodiment, but it is ensured that the residual liquid in the first liquid storage tank 1012 and the two water outlet pipelines are completely drained. For example, the water outlet time is greater than the time required for the first liquid storage tank 1012 to empty. Accordingly, the antifreeze pumping parameters may include pumping time, pumping water pressure, etc., and the values of these parameters are not limited in this embodiment, but it is ensured that the residual liquid in the cleaning tank 1011 and the pumping pipeline is sufficiently pumped into the second liquid storage tank 1013.

Further alternatively, the user may set whether the workstation 100 is in a temperature sensor operating mode on a terminal device bound to the workstation 100, and when the temperature sensor operating mode is started, the workstation may receive temperature data collected by the temperature sensor, determine whether the current ambient temperature is lower than a set temperature, and trigger an anti-freezing drainage operation and an anti-freezing pumping operation in a case that the current ambient temperature is lower than the set temperature. In addition, the set temperature can be flexibly set and adjusted according to the climate conditions of different regional environments.
