In another embodiment, the floor brush mechanism further includes a driving unit 600 for driving the roller 400 to rotate. That is, in this embodiment, the roller 400 is a driving wheel. In this application, the roller 400 is mainly used as a driving wheel. Accordingly, the driving unit 600 is any one of a dc brush motor, a dc brushless motor, and a servo motor.

The floor scrubber also includes a control unit 100 disposed on the main body and/or the floor brush mechanism. The control unit 100 is electrically connected to the driving assembly 300 and the driving unit 600, so as to control the driving assembly 300 to turn on or off, and further control the rolling brush 200 to rotate or stop rotating, and control the driving unit 600 to turn on or off, and further control the rolling wheel 400 to rotate or stop rotating.

In this embodiment, the control unit 100 is a processor. The processor is of conventional construction and will not be described in detail herein.

In the prior art, in the process of using the double-rolling brush floor washing machine, the floor washing machine is inflexible in use due to the fact that the overall weight of the floor washing machine is heavy. The inflexibility of the floor scrubber may include: when the cleaning surface of the floor washing machine is changed from a smooth surface to a rough surface or from a plane to an upward slope, a user can have a laborious pain point in the use process.

In addition, as the rotating directions of the double rolling brushes of the floor washing machine are opposite, when the rotating speeds of the double rolling brushes are consistent, the forces between the double rolling brushes are counteracted, and the floor washing machine is driven to integrally move by completely rotating the roller 400, so that a pain point with laborious push and pull still exists.

In order to solve the above technical problem, the cleaning apparatus in the present application further includes a movement sensing assembly 500, where the movement sensing element is disposed on the floor brush mechanism and senses the element with the control unit 100 to detect movement parameters of the floor brush mechanism, where the movement parameters include a movement speed and a movement direction. In this embodiment, the movement sensing component 500 is any one of a hall sensing element, a photoelectric sensing element, a magneto-electric sensing element and a vibration sensing element.

The movement sensing assembly 500 is disposed on the roller 400 and adapted to detect a movement parameter of the roller 400. The purpose of disposing the movement sensing assembly 500 on the roller 400 is: as can be seen from the foregoing, since the two rolling brushes 200 rotate along the first direction and the second direction respectively, the forces generated by the two rolling brushes cancel each other, and thus the operation parameter value of the roller 400 is detected more accurately, so that the user provides more accurate and efficient assistance.

In this embodiment, the control unit 100 compares the detected movement parameter value with a preset parameter value set therein according to the movement parameter detected by the movement sensing element, and then the control unit 100 controls the two sets of driving assemblies 300 to drive the rolling brushes 200 connected thereto to rotate with the first target operation parameter and the second target operation parameter, respectively, so as to form a speed difference between at least two rolling brushes 200.

The above-mentioned process of the control unit 100 comparing the acquired operation parameter value with the preset parameter value set therein is implemented in the control unit 100. That is, in the present embodiment, the control unit 100 includes a control module 101 and a control module 102 electrically connected to the control module 101, and a preset parameter value is set in the control module 102. The control module 102 may be a logic circuit that is separately configured, and may implement functions such as logic determination. Alternatively, the control module 102 is a conventional determination program written into the processor, and the comparison between the operation parameter value and the preset parameter value can be achieved without making a corresponding improvement to the conventional determination program. Therefore, the judging and comparing process in the application does not improve the program correspondingly. The control module 101 may be a control circuit, a control chip, or the like, and is not particularly limited herein, and may be determined according to practical situations. If the control module 102 is a logic judgment circuit, the control module 101 is a control circuit. When the control module 101 is a control chip, the judging function can be realized by writing a program into the control chip.

In one embodiment, when the movement sensing assembly 500 is an angular velocity detection sensor, the movement sensing assembly 500 is adapted to detect the angular velocity of the roller 400 to obtain the current angular velocity value. Specifically, the angular velocity detection sensor is a gyroscope, which is an angular motion detection device using a momentum moment sensitive housing of a high-speed revolution body to make relative inertia space around one or two axes orthogonal to a rotation axis.

Correspondingly, the preset parameter value is a preset angular velocity value. When the current angular velocity value is smaller than the preset angular velocity value, the driving assembly 300 located at the front side drives the rolling brush 200 connected thereto to rotate at a first target operation parameter value along the current rotation direction of the roller 400, and the driving assembly 300 located at the rear side along the first direction drives the rolling brush 200 connected thereto to rotate at a second target operation parameter value, the first target operation parameter value being greater than the second target operation parameter value, so that a velocity difference is formed between the two rolling brushes 200. The rolling brush 200 positioned at the front side can drive the main body to move along the current movement direction by the driving force of the driving assembly 300 connected with the rolling brush to achieve the purpose of saving labor.

In another embodiment, the movement sensing assembly 500 is a rotation speed detecting sensor adapted to detect the rotation speed of the roller 400 to obtain the current rotation speed value. In this embodiment, the rotation speed detecting sensor is a rotation speed sensor, which is a sensor for converting the rotation speed of a rotating object into electric quantity for output, and is an indirect type sensor, and can be manufactured by mechanical, electrical, magnetic, optical, hybrid methods, and the like. At this time, the preset parameter value is a preset rotation speed value. When the current rotational speed value is smaller than the preset rotational speed value, the driving assembly 300 located at the front side drives the rolling brush 200 connected thereto to rotate with a first target operation parameter value along the current rotational direction of the roller 400, and the driving assembly 300 located at the rear side along the first direction drives the rolling brush 200 connected thereto to rotate with a second target operation parameter value, the first target operation parameter value being greater than the second target operation parameter value, so that a speed difference is formed between the two rolling brushes 200. The rolling brush 200 positioned at the front side can drive the main body to move along the current movement direction by the driving force of the driving assembly 300 connected with the rolling brush to achieve the purpose of saving labor.

In other embodiments, the control unit 100 compares the detected movement parameter value with a preset parameter value set therein according to the movement parameter detected by the movement sensing element, and then the control unit 100 controls the driving unit 600 to adjust the driving parameter, and then adjusts the rotation parameter of the wheel 400, including the rotation speed and the rotation direction. The specific detection method is substantially the same as that of the roller brush 200 in the above embodiment, and the difference is that the adjustment method is as follows: in this embodiment, only one driving unit 600 needs to be adjusted, and the driving rotation speed of the driving unit 600 is controlled to achieve the rotation parameters of the driving roller 400.

To sum up: the cleaning device in this application is provided with removal response subassembly 500 and control unit 100, remove response subassembly 500 and be used for detecting the operation parameter value of current gyro wheel 400, control unit 100 acquires this operation parameter value and compares with predetermineeing the parameter value, when the operation parameter value is less than predetermineeing the parameter value, control unit 100 control drive subassembly 300 drive and the round brush 200 that is connected with it rotate with first target operation parameter value and second target parameter value respectively, so that form the speed difference between two at least round brushes 200, thereby provide helping hand for cleaning device is whole through providing helping hand for round brush 200, in order to reach clean laborsaving effect, and is convenient and fast more.
