Definitions

  • the invention relates to a working method for a cleaning device moving back and forth in a swimming pool as well as to a cleaning device with a chassis which can be switched over to forward and reverse travel and is operatively connected to drive wheels or driving belts, a contact strip arranged on the front of a housing of the cleaning device and a switch bar arranged on the rear, from which bars, when the device hits an obstacle, control signals are sent to the chassis via control logic.
  • a method for operating a reciprocating device for cleaning a swimming pool is known, which device is provided with contact elements oriented approximately in the direction of travel, by means of which the drive motor assigned to the first contact element stopped when contacting the pool wall is, whereby the device is pivoted by an angle essentially related to the longitudinal axis of the device and thereby reverses the drive direction of the chassis.
  • the swimming pool is cleaned with an essentially zigzag-like driving pattern, so that corresponding wedge-shaped strips are not cleaned.
  • EP-A 0 099 489 discloses a method for cleaning a swimming pool by means of a cleaning device which can be used under water and which reverses the direction of travel when it comes into contact with a wall or another obstacle, the device being used by a course controller to maintain a certain driving pattern -Paths and changes are controlled accordingly.
  • the device is moved along a straight travel pattern path in the direction of a wall, the device making a half-turn movement when it comes into contact with the wall and at the same time displacing in the initial direction to the beginning and then the opposite wall is fed.
  • This device works with parallel driving pattern paths and is moved from one wall to the other until a desired floor section or the entire floor area is cleaned.
  • the present invention is concerned with the problem of automatic, systematic cleaning of swimming pools, the object of the invention being to specify a method and a device for carrying out the method, by means of which any changes in direction of the device are detected and values determined therefrom for determining a directional correction be used.
  • This object is achieved according to the method according to the invention in that when the front contact strip is actuated, one drive wheel or conveyor belt is braked and stopped until the other driven drive wheel or conveyor belt rotates the cleaning device in the plane until the rear changeover strip is actuated, and that signals determined by the switch bar for switching the undercarriage to reverse travel and for aligning the cleaning device on an obstacle are used and signals dependent on alignment are used for a subsequent switchover of the undercarriage to a forward drive oriented parallel to the existing carriageway or to the side pool wall.
  • a preferred working method is seen, which is characterized in that, during the driving movement of the cleaning device, the instantaneous direction of movement oriented in relation to the driving line or to the lane is detected by the optical / electronic sensor and any deviations determined are converted as signals and be used to correct the directional movement, and that when the front contact bar is actuated, the cleaning device is rotated in the plane until the rear switching bar is actuated, and signals determined for switching the undercarriage to reverse travel and for aligning the cleaning device on the obstacle are used and signals dependent on alignment be used to switch the running gear to forward travel.
