Specifically, the intractable grade of the dirt can be divided into 1-3 grades, the intractable degree is gradually increased from 1 grade to 3 grades, the 1 grade is very easy to clean, the 2 grade is easy to clean, and the 3 grade is difficult to clean. The type of the dirt and the stubborn grade of the dirt can be correspondingly pre-stored in the intelligent detection analysis module; for example, when the type of dirt is floating dust, the corresponding class 1 is very clean; when the types of dirt are bird droppings and mud belts, the corresponding intractable grade is grade 3 and is difficult to clean. The preset level may be 1 level or 2 levels. Alternatively, the degree of the dirt may be further subdivided according to actual needs and situations, and will not be described here.
The cleaning unit may comprise a brush head, the dimensions of the cleaning unit referring to the length and width of the brush head. Alternatively, the cleaning unit may comprise a plurality of brush heads, and the size of the cleaning unit refers to the total length and the total width of the plurality of brush heads combined. Acquiring the range of the area to be cleaned refers to acquiring a group of coordinate values, and acquiring the maximum length L and the maximum width W of the area to be cleaned through the group of coordinate values; the range of the cleaning area being less than or equal to the size of the cleaning unit on the cleaning module means that at least one of the maximum length L and the maximum width W of the cleaning area is less than or equal to the length and the width of the cleaning unit.

When the intractable grade of the dirt is smaller than or equal to the preset grade and the range of the area to be cleaned is smaller than or equal to the size of the cleaning unit on the cleaning module, the cleaning module can clean the area to be cleaned by walking along the straight path for a small number of times.

The walking path can avoid dirt omission and improve cleaning efficiency.
The range of the to-be-cleaned area being larger than the size of the cleaning unit on the cleaning module means that the maximum length L and the maximum width W of the cleaning area are both larger than the length and the width of the cleaning unit, namely the maximum length L of the to-be-cleaned area is larger than the length of the cleaning unit, and the maximum width W of the to-be-cleaned area is larger than the width of the to-be-cleaned unit.
When the intractable grade of the dirt is smaller than or equal to the preset grade, and the range of the area to be cleaned is larger than the size of the cleaning unit on the cleaning module, the cleaning module can complete cleaning after traveling for a small number of times, the dirt can be prevented from being missed by traveling along the grid-shaped path, and the cleaning efficiency is improved.

The straight path refers to that the cleaning module walks along a straight line. The second preset times are two times, three times and five times. Alternatively, the second preset number of times may be adjusted according to the actual environment and needs.
