应当理解,此处所描述的具体实施例仅仅用以解释本发明,并不用于限定本发明。
实施例一:
参照图1-3,本发明提供的一种清洁装置1,清洁装置1可以为扫地机器人,包括侧刷11、中扫、吸尘器、行走轮,以及距离检测传感器10。侧刷11为具有毛、布料、塑料条或钢丝的刷子,其用于清洁,例如会将墙边的灰尘杂物进行清扫以便进入进风口,具体地侧刷11设置在清洁装置1的下端,并可以向外伸展出一定的距离,以便进行清洁墙体边缘。行走轮设置在清洁装置的下端,用于移动行走。距离检测传感器10用于测量清洁装置到墙体的距离,其设置清洁装置上且在能测量到距离检测传感器10与墙体2之间距离的任意位置,优选与墙体的垂直距离。
上述清洁装置清洁墙体边缘的方法,具体步骤包括:
步骤S1:分析与墙体2的距离L2;
步骤S2:根据距离L2以及侧刷11的预设距离L1,计算出侧刷11与墙体2的距离L;
步骤S3:将侧刷11与墙体2的距离L跟预定值进行比较;
步骤S4:根据比较结果按预设方式控制侧刷11沿墙体移动。
在步骤S1中,清洁装置1通过分析得出设置在清洁装置1中的距离检测传感器10与墙体2的距离L2。参照图3,本实施例中,为了方便测量,距离检测传感器10设置在清洁装置1的侧端,与侧刷11设置在同一侧,侧刷11具有手柄,手柄由清洁装置1控制伸缩移动,当清洁装置1进行墙体2清洁时,清洁装置1通过伸出侧刷11将墙体边缘的垃圾收拢至中扫,并由中扫送进吸尘器的进风口,且清洁时清洁装置1通过行走轮沿墙体2移动,从而完成大范围的墙体边缘清洁。
具体地,侧刷11可以设置有多个,如侧刷11设置有两个,两个侧刷11分别设于清洁装置1的左右两侧,使得清洁更加方便。
在步骤S2中,清洁装置1根据距离L2以及侧刷11的预设距离L1计算出侧刷11与墙体2的距离L,该预设距离L1为与墙体2平行的距离检测传感器10所在面与侧刷11的距离,L1可以在生产制造时预先设定,在本实施例中,侧刷11伸出清洁装置1的方向与距离检测传感器10垂直墙体2的方向一致,根据L1计算侧刷11与墙体2的距离L的具体方法为:根据公式L=L2-L1得出侧刷11外边沿与墙体2的距离L。
在步骤S3中,清洁装置1将侧刷11与墙体2的距离L与预定值进行比较,该预定值可以在生产制作时预先设置,具体地,预定值可以设置为0或1毫米。
在步骤S4中,根据比较结果按预设方式控制侧刷11沿墙体移动,该比较结果包括L<预定值、L=预定值、L>预定值三种情况,即则根据比较结果按预设方式控制侧刷11沿墙体2移动,进而清洁的具体步骤为:当L=预定值时,清洁装置1控制侧刷11直接沿墙体2移动并清洁墙体边缘;当L>预定值时,清洁装置1控制侧刷11朝墙体2移动,侧刷11进而可以清洁墙体边缘;L<预定值时,清洁装置1控制侧刷11朝墙体2外移动,侧刷11进而可以准确清洁墙体边缘,防止过力刷坏墙体,同时也防止侧刷过度挤压墙体导致容易损坏。
当然,预定值可以是0,也可以设定为其他参数,清洁装置1再根据该参数与L的比较结果来进行调整与墙体2的距离。
进一步地,上述步骤S1具体包括如下步骤:
步骤S11:以预设速度发射检测信号,并启动计时器;
步骤S12:接收检测信号抵达墙体2时反馈的反馈信号;
步骤S13:监测接收到所述反馈信号时所述计时器的时长;
步骤S14:根据预设速度与时长计算与墙体2的距离L2。
在步骤S11中,当清洁装置1中的距离检测传感器10以预设速度发射检测信号,同时清洁装置1启动计时器,该检测信号可以为超声波,对应地预设速度为超声波发射速度。
在步骤S12以及步骤S13中检测信号抵达墙体2时会将反馈信号发至清洁装置1,清洁装置1接收该反馈信号同时监测到这一过程计时器的时长。
在步骤S14中,清洁装置1根据预设的速度与时长计算出与墙体2的距离L2,具体地,可以根据公式L2=Speed*Time/2计算出距离检测传感器10与墙体2的距离L2,其中Speed为发射速度,Time为超声波从发出到接触墙体2再将反馈信号反馈至距离检测传感器10的时间。
这样在侧刷11可处理墙体边缘的灰尘垃圾同时防止侧刷11过度碰刷墙壁、损伤侧刷11,降低了损坏侧刷11的材料消耗,且对环境要求以及清洁装置1的要求相对较低,适用范围扩大,制作成本也降低。
本实施例中,在步骤S4清洁装置1的侧刷11沿墙体边缘进行清洁之后,清洁装置1还可以在预设时间后重新调整侧刷11与墙体2的间距,即定时重复步骤S1-S4。这里预设时间为预先设定的时间,例如预先设定2min后清洁装置1重复步骤S1-S4,以使侧刷11定时适应清洁环境,防止清洁的不是直墙体2时,会清洁不到位,保持侧刷11时刻沿墙体边缘清洁。
在另一实施例中,上述距离检测传感器10可以是超声波传感器,还可以为激光模块,当距离检测传感器10为激光传感器时,上述检测信号为激光,且清洁墙体边缘的方法与上述方法一致。
实施例二:
参照图3-5,本发明还提供了一种清洁装置1,上述清洁方法应用于该清洁装置1,该清洁装置1具有侧刷11、中扫、吸尘器、行走轮,以及距离检测传感器10。侧刷11用于清洁墙体边缘,例如会将墙边的灰尘杂物进行清扫以便进入进风口,侧刷11可以设置在清洁装置1的下端,并可以向外伸展出一定的距离,以便进行清洁墙体边缘。
具体地,该清洁装置1包括距离检测传感器10、计算模块200、对比模块300以及控制模块400。
距离检测传感器10,用于通分析与墙体2的距离L2;
计算模块200,用于根据距离L2以及侧刷11的预设距离L1,计算出侧刷11与墙体2的距离L;
对比模块300,用于将侧刷11与墙体2的距离L跟预定值进行比较;
控制模块400,用于根据比较结果按预设方式控制侧刷11沿墙体移动。
本实施例中,上述清洁装置的计算模块200包括:
运算子模块2001,用于根据公式L=L2-L1得出所述侧刷11与墙体2的距离L。
上述预设距离L1为与墙体2平行的距离检测传感器10所在面与侧刷11的距离,L1可以在生产制造时预先设定,在本实施例中,侧刷11伸出清洁装置1的方向与距离检测传感器10垂直墙体2的方向一致。
上述预定值为0或1毫米,其中比较结果包括L<预定值、L=预定值、L>预定值三种情况,当L<预定值时,控制模块400控制侧刷11朝墙体2外移动,即稍微远离墙体2,侧刷11进而可以清洁墙体边缘,当L=预定值时,控制模块400控制侧刷直接沿墙体2移动,使侧刷沿墙体边缘清洁;当L>预定值时,控制模块400控制侧刷直接朝向墙体2移动,侧刷11进而可以准确清洁墙体边缘,防止过力刷坏墙体,同时也防止侧刷过度挤压墙体导致容易损坏。
可以理解的是,距离检测传感器10设置在清洁装置1上,且是设置在能测量到距离检测传感器10与墙体2之间距离的任意位置,本实 施例中,为了方便测量,距离检测传感器10设置在清洁装置1的侧端,与侧刷11设置在同一侧,侧刷11具有手柄,手柄由清洁装置1控制伸缩移动,当清洁装置1进行墙体2清洁时,清洁装置1通过伸出侧刷11将墙体边缘的垃圾收拢至中扫,并由中扫送进吸尘器的进风口,且清洁时清洁装置1通过行走轮沿墙体2移动,从而完成大范围的墙体边缘清洁。
侧刷11可以设置有多个,如侧刷11设置有两个,两个侧刷11分别设于清洁装置1的左右两侧,使得清洁更加方便。
本实施例中,上述清洁装置的距离检测传感器10包括:
发射子模块1001:用于以预设速度发射检测信号,并启动计时器;
接收子模块1002:用于接收所述检测信号抵达墙体时反馈的反馈信号;
监测子模块1003:用于监测接收到所述反馈信号时所述计时器的时长;
计算子模块1004:用于根据所述预设速度与所述时长计算与墙体2的距离L2。
当距离检测传感器10分析距离检测传感器10与墙体2的距离L2时,发射子模块1001以预设速度发射检测信号,并启动计时器,该预设速度可以为超声波发射速度,对应地检测信号可以为超声波;接收子模块1002接收检测信号抵达墙体2时反馈的反馈信号,监测子模块1003监测接收到反馈信息时计时器的时长;计算子模块1004根据预设速度与时长计算与墙体的距离L2。
据公式L2=Speed*Time/2计算出距离检测传感器10与墙体2的距离L2;其中Speed为发射速度,Time为超声波从发出到接触墙体2再将反馈信息反馈至距离检测传感器10的时间。
另外,上述距离检测传感器10可以为超声波传感器,也可以为激光传感器,当距离检测传感器为激光传感器时,上述检测信号为激光。
上述清洁装置1采用距离检测传感器10进行测量,与采用红外 线测量的清洁装置1相比,更加灵活,对环境的要求相对较低,应用更加广泛,且可以在清洁墙体边缘的同时防止侧刷11过度碰触墙壁,免其损坏,特别是在长边的直墙环境下,可以有效地沿墙体2进行平行式清洁,发挥最大的效果。
本实施例中,上述清洁装置1可以在沿墙体边缘进行清洁之后,预设时间后重新调整侧刷11与墙体2的间距;这里预设时间为可以为2分钟以使侧刷11定时适应清洁环境,防止清洁的不是直墙体2时,会清洁不到位。
综上所述,本发明提供的清洁装置清洁墙体边缘的方法,通过距离检测传感器10发射超声波进而测出清洁装置1与墙体2距离的方式,然后调整清洁装置1与墙体2距离并进行清洁,这样的墙体边缘清洁方法不但识别功能强,对环境要求相对较低,适用范围广,且对材料要求也不高,同时还降低了材料损耗率,本发明还提供一种对应上述清洁方法的清洁装置1,包括距离检测传感器10、计算模块200、对比模块300以及控制模块400,通过检测模块100测出距离检测传感器10与墙体2的距离L2,由计算模块200根据距离L2以及距离检测传感器10与侧刷11的位置关系计算出侧刷11外边沿与墙体2的距离L,并由对比模块300与预定值进行对比,控制模块400根据对比结果控制侧刷11沿墙体边缘进行清洁,这样的清洁装置1不但制作成本低,损耗低,有较好的市场应用前景。
以上所述仅为本发明的优选实施例,并非因此限制本发明的专利范围,凡是利用本发明说明书及附图内容所作的等效结构或等效流程变换,或直接或间接运用在其他相关的技术领域,均同理包括在本发明的专利保护范围内。
