an integrated circuit chip: an Integrated Circuit (IC) chip (Integrated Circuit Chip) is formed by placing a large number of microelectronic devices (transistors, resistors, capacitors, etc.) on a plastic substrate.
Ultrasonic liquid level meter: is a non-contact digital liquid level meter controlled by a microprocessor. In the measurement, ultrasonic pulses are emitted by a sensor (transducer), sound waves are received by the same sensor after being reflected by the surface of the liquid, the sound waves are converted into electric signals through a piezoelectric crystal, and the distance from the sensor to the surface of the liquid to be measured is calculated from the time between the emission and the reception of the sound waves. As non-contact measurement is adopted, the measured medium is almost unlimited, and can be widely used for measuring the heights of various liquid and solid materials.
Radar level gauge: the non-contact liquid level meter is based on the measuring instrument of time travel principle, radar wave operates at light speed, and the running time can be converted into material level signal through electronic component. The probe emits high frequency pulses that propagate in space at the speed of light, reflect back to be received by a receiver in the meter when the pulses encounter the surface of the material, and convert the distance signal into a level signal.

In this embodiment, the liquid level detection unit 170 may detect the liquid flow rate in the first pipe 150 or the second pipe 160, and when detecting that the liquid flow rate in the first pipe 150 or the second pipe 160 is smaller than the preset flow rate, it may be determined that the water tank 130 of the cleaning apparatus 100 is in a liquid shortage state. When it is detected that the flow rate of the liquid in the first pipe 150 or the second pipe 160 is greater than the preset flow rate, it is determined that the liquid is present in the water tank 130 of the cleaning apparatus 100. In this embodiment, by detecting the flow rate of the liquid in the first pipe 150 or the second pipe 160, the liquid level state of the water tank 130 can be determined, so that the occupation of the detection structure in the prior art to the internal space of the water tank 130 is avoided, and the capacity of the water tank 130 is improved.
With continued reference to fig. 7, in some embodiments of the present application, prior to detecting the flow of liquid within the first conduit 150 or the second conduit 160 by the liquid level detection unit 170, the liquid level detection method further comprises:
s110, determining that the working mode of the cleaning device 100 is a mopping state.
In this embodiment, when the cleaning apparatus 100 is in a mopping state, that is, the mop 120 performs a mopping operation, the liquid level detection unit 170 detects the liquid flow in the first pipe 150 or the second pipe 160, and when it is detected that the liquid flow in the first pipe 150 or the second pipe 160 is smaller than the preset flow, it can be determined that the water tank 130 is in a liquid shortage state in the mopping state of the cleaning apparatus 100.
