SISTEMA DE PURIFICACIÓN DE AIRE Y ROBOT LIMPIADOR ASOCIADOAIR PURIFICATION SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED ROBOT CLEANER

SECTOR DE LA TÉCNICATECHNICAL SECTOR

La presente invención se encuadra dentro de los sistemas de ventilación y succión, así como la purificación de aire, por parte de los robots de limpieza con medios de desplazamiento autónomo o semiautónomo.The present invention falls within the ventilation and suction systems, as well as air purification, by cleaning robots with autonomous or semi-autonomous means of movement.

ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Actualmente, los robots aspiradores están formados, principalmente, por un motor de succión de aire que aspira la suciedad, la localiza en un depósito de sólidos y finalmente realiza una filtración del aire antes de su salida de nuevo al recinto. Por tanto, para evitar que las partículas entren al motor de succión y dañen su estructura y buen funcionamiento, se realiza indirectamente una purificación del aire interior. Esta función secundaria es paralela y siempre dependiente al proceso principal de aspiración del robot.Currently, robot vacuum cleaners are mainly made up of an air suction motor that sucks up dirt, locates it in a solids tank and finally filters the air before it is released back into the enclosure. Therefore, to prevent particles from entering the suction motor and damaging its structure and proper functioning, indoor air purification is performed indirectly. This secondary function is parallel to and always dependent on the main suction process of the robot.

El objetivo de la aspiración de suciedad es limpiar cuando una estancia está sucia o realizar un mantenimiento constante que mantenga un nivel de suciedad mínima y homogénea, mientras que el objeto de la purificación del aire es filtrar el aire de una estancia cuando se alcanzan valores críticos o realizar un mantenimiento constante que mantenga un valor mínimo y homogéneo. El problema aquí planteado es la imposibilidad de separar ambos procesos para optimizarlos por separado.The objective of dirt suction is to clean when a room is dirty or to carry out constant maintenance that maintains a minimum and homogeneous level of dirt, while the objective of air purification is to filter the air in a room when critical values are reached or carry out constant maintenance that maintains a minimum and homogeneous value. The problem raised here is the impossibility of separating both processes to optimize them separately.

Perteneciente al estado de la técnica, encontramos el documento CA1156007A, en el que se describe una bolsa de filtro de aire para su uso en aspiradoras. La bolsa de filtro incluye un collar de plástico que tiene un borde o faldón periférico anular que se extiende axialmente lejos de una porción del cuerpo de la bolsa y hacia el interior hacia el eje de la porción del cuerpo para cooperar con un conducto de aire con bridas para fines de retención y sellado. El collar también incluye un labio de sellado anular espaciado radialmente hacia dentro del borde para cooperar con el conducto de aire para fines de sellado, proporcionando así al collar una disposición de doble sellado. Para facilitar la extracción de la bolsa de filtro de un conducto de aire con bridas, el collar está provisto de una porción de lengüeta unida integralmente al borde.Belonging to the state of the art, we find document CA1156007A, in which an air filter bag for use in vacuum cleaners is described. The filter bag includes a plastic collar having an annular peripheral rim or skirt that extends axially away from a body portion of the bag and inwardly toward the axis of the body portion to cooperate with an air duct with flanges for retention and sealing purposes. The collar also includes an annular sealing lip spaced radially inwardly from the rim to cooperate with the air passage for sealing purposes, thus providing the collar with a double sealing arrangement. To facilitate removal of the filter bag from a flanged air duct, the collar is provided with a tongue portion integrally attached to the rim.

El documento CA1308365C, por su parte, presenta una bolsa para usar con una aspiradora vertical que comprende un ventilador de motor contenido en una carcasa principal para producir un flujo de aire por un conducto de aire de la carcasa. La bolsa incluye un cuerpo flexible que tiene paredes laterales formadas por un material permeable al aire que define un interior normalmente cerrado y una abertura de boca. La abertura de la boca del cuerpo flexible está asegurada al conducto de aire de la carcasa principal para producir un flujo de aire a través del cuerpo flexible para el escape a la atmósfera. Un tubo oscilador, formado de un material flexible, tiene un interior, un extremo abierto en una extensión y una abertura de admisión en la extensión opuesta. La abertura de entrada está dispuesta para comunicarse con la abertura de la boca del cuerpo de la bolsa, de modo que el flujo de aire desde la carcasa principal pase a través del tubo oscilador y cause oscilaciones, las oscilaciones del tubo que sirven para hacer vibrar la bolsa y evitar la acumulación de suciedad en La bolsa de paredes laterales interiores.Document CA1308365C, for its part, presents a bag for use with an upright vacuum cleaner comprising a motor fan contained in a main casing to produce an air flow through an air duct of the casing. The bag includes a flexible body having side walls formed of an air-permeable material defining a normally closed interior and a mouth opening. The mouth opening of the flexible body is secured to the main casing air duct to produce a flow of air through the flexible body for exhaust to atmosphere. An oscillator tube, formed of a flexible material, has an interior, an open end at one extension, and an intake opening at the opposite extension. The inlet opening is arranged to communicate with the mouth opening of the bag body, so that the airflow from the main casing passes through the oscillating tube and causes oscillations, the oscillations of the tube serving to vibrate the bag and prevent the accumulation of dirt on the bag's inner side walls.

EXPLICACIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓNEXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

La solución que propone la presente invención es utilizar diversos métodos de entrada de datos que permitan utilizar la purificación del aire ambiente, optimizando la naturaleza del proceso de filtrado y aprovechando la navegación incorporada en el robot limpiador.The solution proposed by the present invention is to use various data input methods that allow the use of ambient air purification, optimizing the nature of the filtering process and taking advantage of the navigation built into the cleaning robot.

El sistema de filtrado de aire tiene que constar como mínimo de un filtro HEPA. Adicionalmente puede contar con un pre-filtro de carbón activo, un filtro foto-catalítico, una luz ultravioleta tipo C, un generador de iones o cualquier otro componente que ayude a la purificación del aire.The air filter system must have at least one HEPA filter. Additionally, it can have an active carbon pre-filter, a photocatalytic filter, a type C ultraviolet light, an ion generator or any other component that helps purify the air.

La Agencia Europea del Medio Ambiente define un índice de calidad del aire (ICA) que proporciona información sobre la calidad del aire. Esta medición tiene en cuenta los cinco contaminantes considerados clave y que son perjudiciales para la salud de las personas y del medio ambiente:The European Environment Agency defines an air quality index (AQI) that provides information on air quality. This measurement takes into account the five pollutants considered key and that are harmful to the health of people and the environment:

• Partículas microscópicas en suspensión (PM2,5 y PM10)• Microscopic particles in suspension (PM2.5 and PM10)

• Ozono troposférico (O3) • Tropospheric ozone (O3)

• Dióxido de nitrógeno (NO2)• Nitrogen dioxide (NO2)

• Dióxido de azufre (SO2)• Sulfur dioxide (SO2)

El ICA está modulado según los siguientes valores, (como se muestra en la Figura 1):The ICA is modulated according to the following values, (as shown in Figure 1):

• Buena: Color verde (ICA de 0 a 50)• Good: Green color (ICA from 0 to 50)

• Moderada: Color amarillo (ICA de 51 a 100)• Moderate: Yellow color (AQI from 51 to 100)

• Dañina a la salud para grupos sensibles: Color naranja (ICA de 101 a 150) • Dañina a la salud: Color rojo (ICA 151 a 200)• Harmful to health for sensitive groups: Orange color (ICA 101 to 150) • Harmful to health: Red color (ICA 151 to 200)

• Muy dañina a la salud: Color morado (ICA 201 a 300)• Very harmful to health: Purple color (ICA 201 to 300)

• Peligrosa: Color marrón (ICA superior a 300)• Dangerous: Brown color (ICA greater than 300)

Por tanto, el proceso de purificación del aire requiere de unas entradas diferentes para trabajar. Esta información de calidad del aire exterior se encuentra disponible en la red en tiempo real. Se propone vincular la localización del robot con los indicadores de la localidad respectiva.Therefore, the air purification process requires different inputs to work. This outdoor air quality information is available online in real time. It is proposed to link the location of the robot with the indicators of the respective locality.

Mediante este factor se puede utilizar la calidad del aire exterior como información de entrada del robot. A su vez, se propone asociar la salida del robot con la evolución horaria de la contaminación en el aire. De esta manera, el proceso de purificación del aire se realiza en las franjas horarias con picos de contaminación. Se propone también escalar esto a nivel diario, programando el funcionamiento del robot en los días críticos de la semana.By means of this factor, the quality of the outside air can be used as input information of the robot. In turn, it is proposed to associate the output of the robot with the hourly evolution of air pollution. In this way, the air purification process is carried out in the time slots with pollution peaks. It is also proposed to scale this to a daily level, programming the operation of the robot on the critical days of the week.

Para hacer uso del nivel del ICA y ajustar la respuesta del robot de limpieza, aprovechando sus medios de desplazamiento y, en función a esto, se plantea una combinación, así como su uso por separado, de las siguientes opciones:To make use of the ICA level and adjust the response of the cleaning robot, taking advantage of its displacement means and, based on this, a combination, as well as its use separately, of the following options is proposed:

• Programar el robot en función de una evolución teórica de la calidad del aire exterior. La gráfica teórica se extraería de datos históricos y dependería de la ubicación geográfica del robot.• Program the robot based on a theoretical evolution of the outside air quality. The theoretical graph would be extracted from historical data and would depend on the geographical location of the robot.

• Programar el robot en función de la evolución a tiempo real de la calidad del aire exterior. La gráfica real se extraería de bases de datos oficiales y dependería de la ubicación geográfica del robot, pero sería necesario un flujo de información constante.• Program the robot based on the real-time evolution of the outside air quality. The actual graph would be extracted from official databases and would depend on the geographical location of the robot, but a constant flow of information would be necessary.

• Dotar al robot de los sensores oportunos para determinar los contaminantes necesarios que constituyen en cálculo del ICA. Para ello el robot debería realizar el cálculo de manera individual en cada estancia y estimar el ICA global de la vivienda, elaborando una gráfica personalizada. Para realizar esta tarea el sistema aprovecha los ciclos de limpieza para registrar paralelamente los datos oportunos.• Provide the robot with the appropriate sensors to determine the pollutants that constitute the calculation of the ICA. To do this, the robot should perform the calculation individually in each room and estimate the global ICA of the home, creating a personalized graph. To carry out this task, the system takes advantage of the cleaning cycles to record the appropriate data in parallel.

• Un sistema alternativo es registrar el ICA de manera horaria, instalado en la base de carga del robot, estimando que el nivel de ICA de dicha estancia se pueda extrapolar al de la vivienda entera, o que la base de carga cuente con los elementos necesarios para conexiones telemáticas de información, y sea el robot de limpieza en que cuente con los sensores necesarios y medios para transmitir esta información a la base de carga.• An alternative system is to record the ICA hourly, installed in the robot's charging base, estimating that the ICA level of said room can be extrapolated to that of the entire home, or that the charging base has the necessary elements. for telematic information connections, and be the cleaning robot that has the necessary sensors and means to transmit this information to the charging base.

Para el cálculo del ICA interior el robot puede debe contar mínimo con uno de los siguientes sensores: Sensor de polvo (sensor PM2,5 y/o sensor PM10), sensor de ozono troposférico (O3), sensor de dióxido de nitrógeno (NO2), sensor dióxido de azufre (SO2). Adicionalmente puede contar tanto con sensor de humedad relativa como de temperatura. Los valores de cada contaminante para el cálculo del ICA se muestran en la Figura 3. A partir de dichos valores se puede realizar el cálculo del ICA mediante la siguiente fórmula:To calculate the interior ICA, the robot must have at least one of the following sensors: Dust sensor (PM2.5 sensor and/or PM10 sensor), tropospheric ozone sensor (O3), nitrogen dioxide sensor (NO2) , sulfur dioxide sensor (SO2). Additionally, it can have both a relative humidity sensor and a temperature sensor. The values of each pollutant for the calculation of the ICA are shown in Figure 3. From these values, the ICA can be calculated using the following formula:

Figure imgf000005_0001
Figure imgf000005_0001

En todo caso, los diferentes métodos de obtención de la evolución horaria y diaria son complementarios entre sí, y la suma de ellos ajustaría cada vez más el correcto funcionamiento del filtrado y la purificación del aire.In any case, the different methods of obtaining the hourly and daily evolution are complementary to each other, and the sum of them would adjust more and more the correct functioning of the air filtering and purification.

La ventaja principal del invento es que permite que el robot aspirador también pueda utilizarse preferentemente como robot purificador del aire interior, tanto por unas mediciones internas de la calidad del aire, así como por extracción de datos de fuentes oficiales y por ubicaciones, de la calidad del aire.The main advantage of the invention is that it allows the robot vacuum cleaner to also be used preferably as a purifying robot for indoor air, both for internal measurements of air quality, as well as for data extraction from official sources and by locations, of air quality. from air.

En función de los datos de entrada, el usuario conocerá las franjas en las que el robot de limpieza es recomendable para la salud que actúe. Esto permite implementar nuevos modos de navegación del robot en función del nivel de ICA registrado. Además, al conocerse el dato ICA registrado durante el uso del robot de limpieza, ya sea para limpiar y/o purificar, se puede hacer un cálculo preciso de la vida útil de los diferentes componentes del sistema de filtrado con los que cuenta el robot de limpieza.Depending on the input data, the user will know the ranges in which the cleaning robot is recommended for the health that it acts. This allows implementing new robot navigation modes based on the registered ICA level. In addition, knowing the ICA data recorded during the use of the cleaning robot, either to clean and/or purify, it is possible to make a precise calculation of the useful life of the different components of the filtering system that the cleaning robot has.

Para evitar detalles no necesarios para permitir a los expertos en la técnica llevar a cabo la descripción detallada no debe, por tanto, tomarse en un sentido limitativo.In the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments, reference is made to the accompanying drawings which form a part of this specification, and in which are shown, by way of illustration and among others, specific preferred embodiments in which the invention may be practiced. cape. These embodiments are described in sufficient detail to enable those skilled in the art to practice the invention, and it is understood that other embodiments may be used and logical structural, mechanical, electrical, and/or chemical changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention. To avoid details not necessary to enable those skilled in the art to carry out the detailed description should therefore not be taken in a limiting sense.

En una realización preferente de la presente invención, el robot de limpieza comprende un Sistema de purificación de aire con al menos un filtro HEPA y un sensor PM2,5 (ICA). El robot registra, mediante el sensor, partículas en suspensión con valor de 54,8 ^g/m3, con lo que Cp = 54,8 ^g /m 2. Utilizando los valores para el cálculo del ICA a partir del sensor de PM2,5, se observa que dicho valor se encuentra en el color naranja con clasificación dañina para grupos sensibles. El valor de 54,8 se encuentra entre los valores límite de dicha clasificación, por tanto, BPLo = 35,5 gg/m 3, BPHi = 55,4 gg/m 3, ILo = 101 gg/m 3, y IHi = 150 gg/m 3.In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cleaning robot comprises an air purification system with at least one HEPA filter and one PM2.5 (ICA) sensor. The robot registers, through the sensor, suspended particles with a value of 54.8 ^g/m3, with which Cp = 54.8 ^g /m 2. Using the values for the calculation of the ICA a From the PM2.5 sensor, it is observed that this value is in the orange color with a harmful classification for sensitive groups. The value of 54.8 is between the limit values of said classification, therefore, BPLo = 35.5 gg/m3 , BPHi = 55.4 gg/m3 , ILo = 101 gg/m3 , and IHi = 150gg/m3 .

Figure imgf000007_0001
101 = 148,52 gg/m 3
Figure imgf000007_0001
101 = 148.52 g/m3

A partir de la obtención del ICA, el robot registra el valor en la franja horaria actual para comenzar a elaborar la gráfica de la evolución diaria de contaminación. En paralelo, comprueba y compara el valor con los valores críticos registrados por defecto y manda un aviso al usuario de que es recomendable realizar la purificación del aire de la estancia o si se alcanzan valores críticos sale automáticamente. En este caso al superar el valor de 101 el robot avisa al usuario de que es necesario realizar la purificación del aire, pero si se hubiese superado el valor de 150 el robot automáticamente hubiese salido a purificar el ambiente.After obtaining the ICA, the robot registers the value in the current time slot to start drawing the graph of the daily evolution of pollution. In parallel, it checks and compares the value with the critical values registered by default and sends a warning to the user that it is advisable to purify the air in the room or if critical values are reached, it exits automatically. In this case, when the value of 101 is exceeded, the robot notifies the user that it is necessary to purify the air, but if the value of 150 is exceeded, the robot would automatically go out to purify the environment.
