具体实施方式
为了使本技术领域的人员更好地理解本申请方案,下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。
需要说明的是,本文中的“第一”、“第二”等描述,是用于区分不同的结构、部件等,不代表先后顺序,也不限定“第一”和“第二”是不同的类型。此外,下述各实施例仅仅是本申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
用户使用现有清洁机器人对地面进行清洁,该清洁机器人行走过程中,边吸尘边拖地。过一会儿,用户发现清洁机器人清洁过的地面上还是有黑点等污渍。这时,用户只能控制清洁机器人再次清洁一遍,或是控制清洁机器人再对该区域进行清洁。再次清洁也不一定能清洁干净,需反复多次才行。用户可能就会放弃,直接手动来清洁地上的没有被清洁干净的黑点。对于用户来说,其直接的感受是清洁机器人的清洁能力有限,好感度会下降。
而发明人对上述问题进行了研究,发现出现上述问题的原因之一是清洁机器人的拖擦件(或抹布)湿润不均匀。拖擦件被湿润的部分是湿拖,未被湿润或润透的部分是干拖。对于黑点等顽固污渍来说,干拖是不能清洁干净的。为此,本申请提供了如下各实施例,以解决或改善上述问题。
参见图1和图2所示,本申请一实施例提供的清洁机器人。该清洁机器人包括:机体1、支架7及拖擦件2。其中,所述支架7设置在所述机体1底部,并能相对所述机体1运动。所述机体1的底部设有出液口,更具体的,所述机体1上设有水箱3,水箱3的底部(即朝向所述支架的一侧)设有出液口。所述拖擦件2设置在所述支架7上,用于对清洁对象(如地面、桌面等)进行清洁。参见图3a至图4d所示,所述支架的对应所述出液口的位置上,沿所述支架7的运动方向设有多个漏液槽71;经所述出液口排出的液体经所述多个漏液槽71分布到所述拖擦件2上。
本实施例提供的技术方案,通过在支架上设置多个漏液槽,且多个漏液槽的位置与机体的出液口位置对应;在支架运动过程中,出液口排出的液体会陆续滴落至各个漏液槽内,再经各漏液槽分布到拖擦件的多个位置 处;在保证安装盘强度的情况下,漏液槽的数量越多或各漏液槽的槽长更长,拖擦件的湿润均匀性会更好。
具体的,在保证支架强度的情况下,漏液槽71的槽长短,可增加漏液槽的数量;漏液槽71的槽长长,可减少漏液槽71的数量。如图3a和3b所示支架7包括安装盘,安装盘为椭圆形盘,所述漏液槽71设置为六个,漏液槽71的槽长可短一些,具体长度需根据安装盘实际尺寸来定。图4a和4b为安装盘为圆形盘的实例,同样的所述漏液槽71设置为六个。图3c和3d为安装盘为椭圆形盘,漏液槽71为三个的实例,此时漏液槽71的槽长可长一些。图4c和4d为安装盘为圆形盘,漏液槽71为三个的实例。
具体实施时,所述漏液槽71的两端可以为弧形端,如图3a、3d、4b和4c所示,即所述漏液槽71可呈跑道型。或者,所述漏液槽71的两端为直边端,如图3b、3c、4a和4d所示,即所述漏液槽71为扇环形。又或者,所述漏液槽71可以是矩形。漏液槽的形状与安装盘的形状相关及支架的运动方式有关。比如,支架相对机体作旋转运动,安装盘可为圆形、椭圆形等,则设置在安装盘上的漏液槽可以是跑道型或扇环形。又比如,支架相对机体作直线往复运动,安装盘可以为多边形(如矩形等),相应的,设置在安装盘上的漏液槽可以是矩形。
参见图1和图2所示,本实施例提供的所述清洁机器人还包括行走装置。该行走装置可包括驱动机构41、驱动轮4、从动轮6等。驱动机构41如电机等,输出旋转动力,以带动驱动轮4旋转实现机器人在地面或桌面上的行走。
参见图2所示,所述支架7具有旋转轴77,所述旋转轴77垂直于所述机体1的底面,所述支架7绕所述旋转轴77旋转。或者,所述支架7在所述机体1的行进方向上往复运动。在拖擦过程中,拖擦件2与地面之间的相对运动不仅包括机器人整体在地面上的移动,还包括拖擦件2相对于地面的旋转和/或水平往复运动,从而可以增强拖擦件2的拖擦力度,并增多拖擦件的拖擦次数,实现对地面的反复拖擦,进而可以改善拖擦件的拖擦效果,尤其有助于清洁粘附于地面上的顽固污渍。
清洁机器人的机体1还包括壳体和底盘。所述壳体设置在所述底盘上,用于保护设置在所述壳体与所述底盘之间的结构部件及电器元件,如处理器、传感器、电机、水箱、垃圾回收装置等。
拖擦件2可以为拖布或海绵等各种能够对地面进行拖擦的部件。如图6a和图9所示,所述支架包括安装盘,安装盘具有两个相对的盘面,分别为第一盘面和第二盘面。其中,第一盘面可与所述机体的底部相对,第二盘面可背向机体底部(即朝向清洁面)。拖擦件可设置在第二盘面上,第一盘面与机体底部的出液口相对。拖擦件2与支架7的安装盘可拆卸连接,比如利用魔术贴、卡扣等将拖擦件2粘贴于安装盘的下端面,以便于拆装更换拖擦件。
参见图1所示,该实施例的拖擦件2和安装盘均为椭圆形。实际上,在其他实施例中,拖擦件2及安装盘还可以是圆形、三角形、长方形、六 边形、扇形等等其他形状,本实施例对此不作具体限定。
如图1所示,若机体上设置有两组椭圆形的安装盘及拖擦件,这两组椭圆形的安装盘和拖擦件错位布置。即,两组椭圆形的安装盘及拖擦件的旋转中心连线长度D小于所述两组椭圆形的安装盘及拖擦件的最大旋转半径和,即r1+r2。两组安装盘及拖擦件可以转向相同,也可以转向不同;还可以可切换地进行同向转动和反向转动,也即某一段时间内两组安装盘及拖擦件反向转动而另一段时间内又改变为反向转动。
具体的,如图7a、7b及7c所示,连通凹槽72为中间低两边高的凹槽,连通凹槽72的槽底为圆滑的弧形槽底,这样落入连通凹槽72内的液滴会由于重力作用向连通凹槽底部聚拢,避免水滴流至连通凹槽及漏液槽的外侧。更具体的,参见图7b,所述连通凹槽72的槽口端面721可通过过渡圆弧段与弧形槽底衔接,这样滴落到槽口端面721上的至少部分水滴可顺着过滤圆弧段滑入连通凹槽的槽底。
从图7d和7e可知,落入连通凹槽72内的水滴将会在自身重力以及支架7自转的作用,从图7e所示的连通凹槽72的两端落入相应漏液槽71中。
进一步的,如图5至所示,沿所述支架7的运动方向,相邻漏液槽71间设有连通凹槽72;经所述出液口至所述连通凹槽72的液体经所述连通凹槽72流入漏液槽71内,以从漏液槽71分布到所述拖擦件2,进而湿润所述拖擦件2。其中,漏液槽的槽宽与机体上出液口的尺寸、支架的强度等诸多因素有关。在具体实施时,可基于这些因素合理的设计漏液槽的槽宽、槽长以及漏液槽的数量。连通凹槽的槽宽大于、小于或等于漏液槽槽宽均可,具体实施时需基于漏液槽的结构来定。图5和6a所示的方案中,漏液槽71的槽壁不高于安装盘的盘面,连通凹槽的槽宽大于漏液槽槽宽的方案,可引流更多落在槽与槽连接处的液体进入漏液槽内,减少液体飞溅。未进入漏液槽内的液体会被运动中的支架甩出至机体外,部分飞溅的液体可能会落至已被拖擦件清洁过的地方,影响清洁机器人的清洁效果。因此,减少液体飞溅有助于提高清洁机器人的清洁效果。对于图7a、7b、7c、7d和7e所述的结构,漏液槽71的槽壁凸出所述安装盘盘面的结构,连通凹槽72的槽宽不大于(即小于或等于)所述漏液槽71的槽宽较为合适,漏液槽71超出安装盘盘面的两侧槽壁711可位于机体出液口的两侧,以阻挡从出液口流出液体喷溅到其他位置。
其中,所述连通凹槽72可具有粗糙的槽内壁。粗糙的槽内壁可缓解水滴进入连通凹槽飞溅出的可能。或者,所述连接凹槽72的槽内壁设有防溅结构;所述防溅结构破坏滴至所述连通凹槽72内液滴的表面张力。具体的,如图6a和图6b所示,所述防溅结构包括设置在所述槽内壁的多个凸点73。
在一具体实施方案中,如图6a、6b、7a和7b所示,所述连通凹槽72可为洼型槽。洼型槽即槽中间低两端高的圆滑曲线形成的凹槽。这种洼型槽对安装盘的强度影响不大,还能起到防溅、引流的作用。图7a至7e所示图示中连通凹槽内未示出多个凸点的结构,实际上,图7a至7e所示的 结构中的连通凹槽的槽内壁上也可设置多个凸点。
在一种可实现的技术方案中,如图1、图3a至图5所示,所述支架7可旋转的设置在所述机体1的底部。即所述支架7能相对所述机体1作旋转运动。所述多个漏液槽71的槽中线位于同一圆100上。如图5所示,所述支架7包括安装盘,所述支架的旋转中心轴与所述安装盘的交点即所述安装盘的旋转中心。所述圆100以所述安装盘的旋转中心为圆心,以所述出液口对应位置至所述圆心的距离为半径。这里需要补充的是,相邻漏液槽71间的连通凹槽72也具有槽中线,连通凹槽72的槽中线也位于该圆100上。
参见图5所示的支架7的安装盘,该安装盘上设有一圈漏液槽71。也就是说,安装在安装盘上的拖擦件是自这一圈漏液槽对应的位置处接收流入的液体,然后流入拖擦件的液体再由这一圈位置向内、向外浸润整个拖擦件。若这一圈漏液槽太靠近安装盘的旋转中心,则拖擦件的中心区域会最早浸润,拖擦件的外圈浸润较慢。若这一圈漏液槽太靠近安装盘的盘边缘,也是不利于快速均匀浸润拖擦件的。为此,需要合理的设置槽中线位于同一圆上的多个漏液槽71,换句话来说,就是要合理确定多个漏液槽71的槽中线所在圆的圆半径与安装盘轮廓尺寸的关系。假设,所述安装盘为圆形,问题就转化为:多个漏液槽71的槽中线所在圆的圆半径与安装盘半径的关系问题。
实际实现时,可简单的将所述圆100内面积与圆100外面积相等的方式来确定所述圆100的半径。或者,结合理解计算及实际实验(或测试)数据等为多个漏液槽71的槽中线所在圆的圆半径确定一个取值范围。比如,多个漏液槽71的槽中线所在圆的圆半径为r,所述安装盘的半径为R,则r=55%~65%R。若安装盘为椭圆,椭圆安装盘的长轴为L,则r=55%~65%(L/2)。
上述内容是针对仅设有一圈多个漏液槽的方案。实际上,为了加快浸润拖擦件,机体上可设置多个出液口,相应的,支架的安装盘上可设置两圈、三圈等漏液槽。但不管漏液槽采用何种方式设置,需要说明的是,本实施例中漏液槽71需与所述支架7的旋转中心轴具有一间距。相应的,所述机体底部出液口的设置位置就不能对着所述支架的旋转中心(即支架的旋转中心轴与安装盘的交点)。更进一步的,如图6a所示,所述支架7包括安装盘,安装盘具有相对的第一盘面75和第二盘面76。其中,所述第一盘面75上设有动力接入结构74,例如旋转轴接口。该动力接入结构74从外观来看,为一可连接动力源的凸出所述第一盘面的轴结构。漏液槽71的靠近所述旋转中心轴的槽边可与所述动力接入结构的外壁重合,也可与所述动力接入结构的外部具有一定的距离。假设支架7的安装盘上设有多圈类似于图5中的多个漏液槽,最靠近支架的旋转中心轴的内圈漏液槽的槽内侧边(即靠近旋转中心轴的槽边)需与所述支架7的旋转中心轴具有所述间距。
在一具体实施方案中,一种清洁机器人包括机体、支架及拖擦件。其 中,机体底部上设有出液口。支架具有旋转中心轴且可旋转的设置在所述机体底部。拖擦件设置在支架上,用于对清洁对象进行清洁。其中,所述支架的对应所述出液口的位置上,沿所述支架的旋转方向设置有多个漏液槽;经所述出液口排出的液体经所述多个漏液槽分布到所述拖擦件上;其中,其中一个所述漏液槽距离所述中心轴的间距为所述拖擦件的最小转动半径的1/3-2/3。
这里漏液槽距离所述中心轴的间距可以是:如图5所示的,漏液槽71的槽中线距离所述中心轴70的距离d。图5中中心轴70垂直于纸面。
进一步的,本实施例提供的所述清洁机器人中,所述机体的底部设有动力轴,所述动力轴可输出旋转动力。所述支架7与所述动力轴连接,以随所述动力轴旋转。图2示出了所述支架7与所述动力轴连接后的结构,因此动力轴未在图2中示出。在所述机体的底部,所述动力轴的外周设有至少一个所述出液口。
具体实施时,所述出液口可设置一个,这一个出液口在所述支架旋转过程中可与多个漏液槽中的一个漏液槽相对。随着支架的旋转,出液口滴出的液体可顺次落入各漏液槽内。当然,所述出液口也可设置为多个,如图8所示的支架做往复直线运动的方案。若所述支架做旋转运动,则在所述动力轴的外周,多个所述出液口的设置方式包括如下中的至少一种:
多个所述出液口中至少部分出液口沿所述动力轴轴截面径向方向分布;
多个所述出液口中至少部分出液口沿一圆形的圆周方向均布。
参见图10所示,所述机体包括两个动力轴(图中未示出),这两个动力轴分别连接两个支架。针对图10中的一个动力轴来说,该动力轴外周设置有两个出液口,这两个出液口11沿所述动力轴的轴截面径向方向分布。相应的,所述支架7的安装盘上可设置两圈漏液槽71,每圈漏液槽71的数量可以是3个(如图10所示)、或5个、或6个等等。在支架7旋转过程中,这两个出液口滴出的液体可顺次落入相对应圈上的各漏液槽内。
上述“多个所述出液口中至少部分出液口沿一圆形的圆周方向均布”中的所述圆形可以与所述动力轴的轴截面的旋转中心同心,也可不同心,本实施例对此不作具体限定。
在另一种可实现的技术方案中,如图8所示,所述支架7的安装盘相对所述机体1作往复直线运动;所述机体1的沿垂直于所述往复直线运动的方向上设置多个出液口11(图8中被支架7和拖擦件2遮挡采用虚线表示);参见图9所示,所述安装盘上对应一个出液口的位置处,设置有槽中线在同一直线上的多个漏液槽71。
本实施例提供的清洁机器人,该结构最大的特点在于支架在对应出液口的位置上沿运动方向设置了多个漏液槽,槽与槽之间的连接为洼型槽(中间低两边高),保证水滴能够完全且均匀的分布到抹布上。其中,前面“均匀”这一效果,是多个漏液槽所带来的。“完全”这一效果,是因为洼型槽,且洼型槽内的防溅结构的作用,减少了液体溅出量,使得出液口排出 的液体(或液滴)基本上都进入了拖擦件内。
以如图1所示的支架的安装盘作旋转运动的方案为例,对本实施例提供的技术方案如何达到均匀湿润拖擦件的原理进行说明。沿安装盘的旋转轴一圈环形分布若干个漏液槽,同时漏液槽的径向位置与水箱的滴水孔(即出液口)位置相对应。当安装盘旋转时,水箱的水将有大概率滴落在安装盘的漏液槽中,小概率会滴落在连通凹槽处。滴落在漏液槽中的水滴将直接接触到拖擦件,被拖擦件所吸收。如图6a、6b所示,小概率滴落在洼型槽(即连通凹槽)内,洼型槽内的小凸点将破坏水滴的表面张力,大大降低水滴受到的反作用力,避免造成液滴飞溅;同时水滴在洼型槽内由于势能的作用将向洼型槽的底部流动进而进入漏液槽。
参见图3a、3b、3c、3d、4a、4b、4c、4d等所示的实施例中,所述漏液槽的数量不少于3个。少于3个,为了达到上述提及的“均匀”的效果,比如两个,可能会影响到支架的强度。
上述清洁机器人实施例中的支架、拖擦件可作为可替换部件来设计。即,支架可拆卸的连接在机体上。在支架损坏或润湿性能差时,用户可购买新款的支架,以将原机器人的支架替换下来,提高已有机器人的清洁性能。即本实施例提供一种可安装在上述实施例提供的清洁机器人机体上的拖擦件支架。图3a至图7e示出了拖擦件支架的结构示意图。具体的,如图5和6a所示,所述拖擦件支架7包括安装盘。所述安装盘具有两个相对的盘面,分别为第一盘面75和第二盘面76;所述第一盘面75上设有动力接入结构74,所述动力接入结构用于连接驱动所述安装盘运动的动力源(如清洁机器人上的电机);所述第二盘面76用于连接所述拖擦件2。所述安装盘的对应所述出液口的位置上,沿所述安装盘的运动方向设有多个贯穿所述第一盘面和第二盘面的漏液槽,自所述第一盘面侧进入所述多个漏液槽的液体分布到所述拖擦件。
进一步的,沿所述安装盘的运动方向,相邻漏液槽71间设有连通凹槽72;进入所述连通凹槽72的液体经所述连通凹槽72流入漏液槽71内,以从漏液槽71至所述拖擦件2。所述连通凹槽72的槽内壁可设有多个凸点73;所述多个凸点73破坏滴至所述连通凹槽72内液滴的表面张力。所述连通凹槽为洼型槽。
进一步的,所述安装盘作旋转运动;如图5所示,所述多个漏液槽71的槽中线位于同一圆100上,所述圆100以所述安装盘的旋转中心为圆心,以所述入液位置至所述圆心的距离为半径。
或者,所述安装盘作往复直线运动;如图9所示,所述安装盘上沿垂直于所述往复直线运动的方向具有多个入液位置;所述安装盘上对应一个入液位置处,设置有槽中线在同一直线上的多个漏液槽。
进一步的,参见图6a所述,所述动力接入结构连接旋转动力源,所述安装盘作旋转运动;所述安装盘具有旋转轴接口(即图中的动力接入结构74);自所述旋转轴接口至所述安装盘的边缘,所述第一盘面的高度逐渐 降低。即所述安装盘的第一盘面为自中心向边缘逐渐降低的斜面。这样滴在第一盘面上而不能通过漏液槽分布到拖擦件的极少量液体能沿所述斜面流出至机体外部。
这里需要说明的是:有关支架的更详细的结构可参见上文中的相应内容,此处不作赘述。
用户将清洁机器人上的支架替换为本实施例提供的拖擦件支架,然后将拖擦件安装在支架上。用户启动清洁机器人,清洁机器人按照规划路径或按照用户设定的路径行进,并在行进过程中对地面进行清洁。清洁机器人的水箱出液口按照设计要求滴液,滴下来的液滴大部分落在了漏液槽内,进入漏液槽内的液体漏出至拖擦件上,被拖擦件吸收;还有一小部分液滴落在了相邻漏液槽间的连通凹槽上,液滴的表面张力被连通凹槽内的多个凸点破坏,降低了液滴滴落所受到的反作用力,避免造成液滴飞溅;在连通凹槽内的水滴由于势能的作用将向凹槽底部流动进而流入漏液槽内,再经漏液槽漏至拖擦件上;清洁机器人的拖擦件被完全且均匀的润湿。完全且均匀润湿的拖擦件与地面或桌面等待清洁面摩擦,可大大提高清洁效果,也无需重复执行。用户更换完拖擦件支架后,发现清洁机器人清洁过的地面清洁的非常干净,即便是之前不能清洁的黑点能顽固污渍也被清洁干净,顿时会提升对清洁机器人的使用满意度。
下面将结合具体应用场景对本实施例提供的所述技术方案进行说明。
场景1、
用户使用扫拖一体机器人在家清洁地面。扫拖一体机器人按照规划路径对室内区域的地面向吸尘再使用位于吸尘口后侧的抹布对地面进行拖擦。扫拖一体机器人的底部设有两个可相对所述机体旋转的支架,这两个支架上分别安装了抹布。水箱内的清洁液在控制器的控制下从机体底部的出液口排出。排出的液体大多数滴落至支架的多个漏液槽中,进入漏液槽的液体分布到抹布,以浸润抹布。还有少量的液滴会滴落在两相邻漏液槽间的洼型槽内,因洼型槽内多个凸点的作用破坏了水滴的表面张力,大大降低水滴收到的反作用力,避免造成液滴飞溅,同时水滴在洼型槽内由于势能的作用将向洼型槽的底部流动,进而进入漏液槽。浸湿的抹布与地面旋转接触,对地面进行清洁。
场景2、
清洁机器人为商超或酒店的大型场所使用的用于清洁地面的机器人。该机器人可以具有自主移动能力,也可由用户驾驶或遥控对地面进行清洁。该清洁机器人的机体内部设有水箱,机体底部设有旋转动力轴,所述机体底部设有与动力轴具有一定距离且与水箱连通的出液口。动力轴上连接有随动力轴旋转的支架,支架上安装有可拆卸的拖布。支架在动力轴的驱动下旋转,泵水机构在控制器的控制下从水箱中泵出适量的清洁液至出液口,以从出液口流向支架。流向支架的清洁液一部分进入漏液槽分布到抹布, 还有一部分进入洼型槽,经洼型槽流入漏液槽至抹布。浸湿的抹布与地面旋转接触,对地面进行清洁。
最后应说明的是:以上实施例仅用以说明本申请的技术方案,而非对其限制;尽管参照前述实施例对本申请进行了详细的说明,本领域的普通技术人员应当理解:其依然可以对前述各实施例所记载的技术方案进行修改,或者对其中部分技术特征进行等同替换;而这些修改或者替换,并不使相应技术方案的本质脱离本申请各实施例技术方案的精神和范围。
