详述
本申请描述了多个实施例,但是该描述是示例性的,而不是限制性的,并且对于本领域的普通技术人员来说显而易见的是,在本申请所描述的实施例包含的范围内可以有更多的实施例和实现方案。尽管在附图中示出了许多可能的特征组合,并在具体实施方式中进行了讨论,但是所公开的特征的许多其它组合方式也是可能的。除非特意加以限制的情况以外,任何实施例的任何特征或元件可以与任何其它实施例中的任何其他特征或元件结合使用,或可以替代任何其它实施例中的任何其他特征或元件。
本申请包括并设想了与本领域普通技术人员已知的特征和元件的组合。本申请已经公开的实施例、特征和元件也可以与任何常规特征或元件组合,以形成由权利要求限定的独特的发明方案。任何实施例的任何特征或元件也可以与来自其它发明方案的特征或元件组合,以形成另一个由权利要求限定的独特的发明方案。因此,应当理解,在本申请中示出和/或讨论的任何特征可以单独地或以任何适当的组合来实现。因此,除了根据所附权利要求及其等同替换所做的限制以外,实施例不受其它限制。此外,可以在所附权利要求的保护范围内进行各种修改和改变。
此外,在描述具有代表性的实施例时,说明书可能已经将方法和/或过程呈现为特定的步骤序列。然而,在该方法或过程不依赖于本文所述步骤的特定顺序的程度上,该方法或过程不应限于所述的特定顺序的步骤。如本领域普通技术人员将理解的,其它的步骤顺序也是可能的。因此,说明书中阐述的步骤的特定顺序不应被解释为对权利要求的限制。此外,针对该方法和/或过程的权利要求不应限于按照所写顺序执行它们的步骤,本领域技术人员可以容易地理解,这些顺序可以变化,并且仍然保持在本申请实施例的精神和范围内。
如图1所示,本申请的一个实施例提供了一种割草刀具的控制方法,包括:
步骤S102:确定目标割草高度,目标割草高度至少根据割草机器人所处环境的环境信息确定;
步骤S104:根据目标割草高度对割草刀具的割草高度进行调节。
本申请实施例提供的割草刀具的控制方法,可以先确定目标割草高度,然后根据目标割草高度对割草机器人的割草高度进行自动调节,而无需用户介入,通过主观操作来调节割草高度,因而智能化程度高,有利于提高用户的使用体验。
其中,由于草的高度与所处环境的环境信息密切相关,因而目标割草高度也与所处环境的环境信息密切相关,故而割草机器人所处环境的环境信息可以作为确定目标割草高度的至少一个判断依据。因此,目标割草高度至少根据割草机器人所处环境的环境信息确定,有利于确定出合适的目标割草高度,进而有利于提高对草坪的维护效果,提高用户的使用体验。
其中,该割草刀具的控制方法可以由割草机器人的控制装置实现。该割草刀具的控制方法也可以由终端设备(如手机)实现,终端设备与割草机器人通讯连接。换言之,可以是割草机器人的控制装置确定目标割草高度后自动对割草刀具的割草高度进行调节,也可以是终端设备确定割草刀具的割草高度后以电动的方式来调节割草刀具的割草高度。无论哪种情况,均不需要用户介入主观确定割草刀具,因而提高了割草机器人的智能化程度,提高了用户的使用体验。
值得说明的是,在本公开中,能自动或半自动地执行割草操作的设备均属于本公开的割草机器人。割草机器人包括割草刀具,割草刀具的离地高度即为割草刀具的割草高度。
进一步,本公开的割草机器人还可以是在传统割草机的基础上进行发展的新品类,能够自主地完成修建草坪的工作,无需人为直接控制和操作。并且,割草机器人可以拥有自动割草、清理草屑、自动避雨、自动行走、自动躲避障碍物、电子虚拟篱笆、自动返回充电、网络控制等功能,适合于家庭 庭院、公共绿地等场所进行草坪修剪维护。因此,割草机器人不仅具有操作简单、割草效率高等优点,而且可以自动完成割草任务,减少人力成本和时间成本,还具有安全、无噪音、智能化程度高等优点,已经成为割草机行业的主要发展方向。
在一种示例性的实施例中,如图2所示,确定目标割草高度,包括:
步骤S202:联网获取环境信息;
步骤S204:根据环境信息确定目标割草高度。
在另一种示例性的实施例中,如图3所示,确定目标割草高度,包括:
步骤S302:联网获取环境信息中的部分信息;
步骤S304:根据联网获取的环境信息中的部分信息和从本地获取的环境信息中的其余信息确定目标割草高度。
其中,从本地获取的环境信息中的其余信息保存在本地配置信息中和/或保存在本地记录的历史数据中。
在上述实施例中,割草机器人可以联网获取所需的全部环境信息,也可以联网获取所需的部分环境信息,而其他环境信息则在本地获取。然后由割草机器人至少根据上述环境信息在本地自行计算目标割草高度。该方案通过合理利用网络来获取至少部分环境信息,有利于减少割草机器人需要配置的环境信息检测装置,从而有利于简化割草机器人的结构,降低割草机器人的成本。
由于草坪的修剪高度与环境信息紧密相关,因而割草机器人可以预先设定一些与环境信息相匹配的设定割草高度。当获取到割草机器人所处环境的环境信息时,就可以选择预先设定的与当前环境信息相匹配的设定割草高度作为目标割草高度。
可以理解的是,在本公开中,“计算目标割草高度”中的“计算”是广义的计算,即通过运行计算机程序得到目标割草高度。
在一个示例中,如图4所示,联网获取环境信息或环境信息中的部分信息(即:联网获取至少部分环境信息),包括:
步骤S402:通过网络向服务器发送获取环境信息或环境信息中的部分信息的请求;
步骤S404:接收服务器响应于请求发送的环境信息或环境信息中的部分信息。
在另一个示例中,如图5所示,联网获取环境信息或环境信息中的部分信息(即:联网获取至少部分环境信息),包括:
步骤S502:接收服务器通过网络自动推送的环境信息或环境信息中的部分信息。
割草机器人通过网络获取至少部分环境信息的方式,可以是通过网络向服务器发出获取所需环境信息的请求。割草机器人在发出请求时,也向服务器提供了基本信息(如位置信息和标识信息,位置信息便于服务器通过网络查询当地的环境数据进而得到所需的环境信息,标识信息可以表明该割草机器人是合法终端)。服务器接收到上述请求后,可以通过网络查询获取割草机器人所处环境的环境信息,也可以通过自带的数据库获取割草机器人所处环境的环境信息,然后通过网络发送给割草机器人。其中,割草机器人可以在启动工作时触发上述请求的发送。
或者,割草机器人也可以预先订阅服务器的相应推送服务。当服务器检测到割草机器人启动后,向割草机器人自动推送其所处环境的至少部分环境信息。
其中,本公开中,网络可以是物联网,也可以是移动网络。相应地,服务器可以是网络服务器,手机等移动终端也可以充当服务器。
在一种示例性的实施例中,如图6所示,确定目标割草高度,包括:
步骤S600:联网获取服务器确定的目标割草高度。
在该实施例中,目标割草高度由服务器获取割草机器人所处环境的环境信息并执行运算,而割草机器人只需联网获取上述目标割草高度,本地只执行调节割草高度的操作,而不执行计算目标割草高度的操作。因此,该方案通过合理利用网络获取的方式来确定目标割草高度,则割草机器人无需配置环境信息检测装置,也无需配置目标割草高度计算程序,因而有利于简化割 草机器人的结构和电控程序,从而有利于进一步降低割草机器人的成本。
由于草坪的修剪高度与环境信息紧密相关,因而服务器可以预先设定一些与环境信息相匹配的设定割草高度。当获取到割草机器人所处环境的环境信息时,就可以选择预先设定的与当前环境信息相匹配的设定割草高度作为目标割草高度。
在一个示例中,如图7所示,联网获取服务器确定的目标割草高度,包括:
步骤S702:通过网络向服务器发送获取目标割草高度的请求;
步骤S704:接收服务器响应于请求发送的目标割草高度。
在另一个示例中,如图8所示,联网获取服务器确定的目标割草高度,包括:
步骤S802:接收服务器通过网络自动推送的目标割草高度。
割草机器人通过网络获取目标割草高度的方式,可以是通过网络向服务器发出获取目标割草高度的请求。割草机器人在发出请求时,也向服务器提供了基本信息(如位置信息和标识信息,位置信息便于服务器通过网络查询当地的环境数据进而得到所需的环境信息,标识信息可以表明该割草机器人是合法终端)。服务器接收到上述请求后,可以通过网络查询获取割草机器人所处环境的环境信息,然后至少根据上述环境信息确定目标割草高度,并通过网络发送给割草机器人。其中,割草机器人可以在启动工作时触发上述请求的发送。
或者,割草机器人也可以预先订阅服务器的相应推送服务。当服务器检测到割草机器人启动后,可以得到割草机器人的一些基本信息(如位置信息,位置信息便于服务器通过网络或本身自带的数据库查询当地的环境数据进而得到所需的环境信息),然后通过网络查询或本身自带的数据库获取割草机器人所处环境的环境信息,再至少根据上述环境信息计算得到目标割草高度,并通过网络自动将目标割草高度推送给割草机器人。
在一种示例性的实施例中,如图9所示,确定目标割草高度,包括:
步骤S902:在本地获取环境信息,该环境信息保存在本地配置信息中和 /或保存在本地记录的历史数据中;
步骤S904:根据环境信息确定目标割草高度。
在该实施例中,割草机器人可以配置环境信息检测装置,通过检测将环境信息保存在本地记录的历史数据中。也可以通过手动或联网的方式来设置本地配置信息,直接将环境信息保存在本地配置信息中。在本地获取环境信息,通过不联网的方式在本地计算目标割草高度。本方案可以使割草机器人摆脱对网络的需求,有利于割草机器人在网络信号差的地区或者在网络信号不稳定的情况下也能够正常使用,从而有利于扩大割草机器人的使用范围,有利于割草机器人的市场推广。
比如:环境信息可以包括季节信息,季节可由本地的时钟模块来记录,类似手机关机仍然在记录日期一样。这样,即使不联网,割草机器人也可以获取到季节信息。
环境信息也可以包括气候情况,气候情况可以作一次性的配置,例如初次使用时联网根据所在位置获取到当地气候类别,之后如有跨区域的位置变化时再进行更新,否则不用更新。
环境信息也可以包括温度信息、湿度信息。温湿度可以在本地记录(割草机器人可以配置温度计、湿度计)。
在一种示例性的实施例中,环境信息包括季节信息、气候信息、温度信息、湿度信息中的至少一种。
草坪的修剪高度与季节、气候、温度、湿度等环境条件息息相关。因此,环境信息可以包括但不局限于季节信息、气候信息、温度信息、湿度信息。
其中,常见草坪一般在凉爽季节(如秋冬季)的修剪高度要低于高温季节(如夏季)。因此,季节信息可以作为确定目标割草高度的判断依据。
常见草坪在热带气候、亚热带气候的修剪高度要高于温带气候的修剪高度。因此,气候信息可以作为确定目标割草高度的判断依据。
常见草坪在高温高湿环境下的修剪高度要高于低温低湿环境下的修剪高度。因此,温度信息、湿度信息也可以作为确定目标割草高度的判断依据。
示例地,季节信息包括以下至少一种:季节的类别、月份、日期。
季节信息可以是季节的类别,如春季、夏季、秋季、冬季。由于月份或者日期与季节具有对应关系,因而季节信息也可以是月份或者是日期。无论是季节的类别或者月份或者日期,均可以对应适合的草坪的修剪高度,因而可以将季节的类别、月份或者日期作为确定目标割草高度的判断依据。
其中,在上述各种环境信息中,季节对目标割草高度的影响最大。因此,可以通过季节确定待割草的参考修剪高度,然后根据气候、温度、湿度对割草高度的影响,在参考修建高度的基础上通过上下浮动,来确定目标割草高度。
比如,常见草坪草的参考修剪高度(单位为:cm)如下:
匍匐剪股颖在凉爽季节为0.3-1.3,在高温逆境胁迫下为0.5-2.0;

气候信息可以是气候的类别,如热带季风气候、亚热带季风气候、温带季风气候、温带大陆性气候、高山高原气候等。不同的气候,具有不同的冷、暖、干、湿特点,在同样的季节里,会对草坪的修剪高度产生不同的影响。 因此,可以将气候的类别作为确定目标割草高度的判断依据。比如:夏季目标割草高度设定为5cm,冬季目标割草高度设定为2cm。

比如:中国冬季的参考修剪高度设定为2cm,热带季风气候、亚热带季风气候对目标割草高度的影响值是上浮1cm至2cm,温带季风气候对目标割草高度的影响值是0。因此,中国南方广东等地的冬季,目标割草高度设定为3cm-4cm,而中国北方(如北京)冬季的目标割草高度仍然为2cm。

或者,温度信息也可以是温度对于目标割草高度的影响值。其中,温度对于目标割草高度的影响值,指的是同一季节里不同类别的温度,导致目标割草高度在该季节的参考修剪高度基础上产生的浮动值。比如,中国冬季的参考修剪高度设定为2cm。低温对目标割草高度的影响值是0,则该地区冬季的目标割草高度为2cm。中温对目标割草高度的影响值是上浮1cm,则该地区冬季的目标割草高度为3cm。高温对目标割草高度的影响值是上浮2cm,则该地区冬季的目标割草高度为4cm。
示例地,湿度信息包括以下至少一种:湿度类别、湿度对于目标割草高度的影响值。
湿度信息可以是湿度类别,湿度类别可以根据降雨量按区间划分级别。 比如年降雨量低于200mm划分为干旱类别,年降雨量在200毫米至400毫米划分为半干旱类别,年降雨量在400毫米至800毫米划分为半湿润类别,年降雨量在800毫米以上为湿润类别。同样的季节,由于湿度的差别,草坪的修剪高度有所不同,可以将不同湿度类别下的目标割草高度随着湿度的增加而适当增加。
或者,湿度信息也可以是湿度对于目标割草高度的影响值。其中,湿度对于目标割草高度的影响值,指的是同一季节里不同类别的湿度,导致目标割草高度在该季节的参考修剪高度基础上产生的浮动值。比如,中国冬季的参考修剪高度设定为2cm。干旱、半干旱对目标割草高度的影响值是0,则该地区冬季的目标割草高度为2cm。半湿润对目标割草高度的影响值是上浮1cm,则该地区冬季的目标割草高度为3cm。湿润对目标割草高度的影响值是上浮2cm,则该地区冬季的目标割草高度为4cm。

在一种示例性的实施例中,控制方法还包括:获取待割草的种类。目标割草高度至少根据环境信息以及待割草的种类确定。
由于不同种类的草坪,在同样的环境条件下,也可以具有不同的修剪高度。因此,根据割草机器人所处环境的环境信息,结合待割草的种类,来确定目标割草高度,可以对草坪进行更合理的维护。
由于草坪的修剪高度与环境信息及待割草的种类紧密相关,因而割草机 器人或服务器可以预先设定一些与环境信息及待割草的种类相匹配的设定割草高度。当获取到割草机器人所处环境的环境信息及待割草的种类时,就可以选择预先设定的与当前环境信息及待割草的种类相匹配的设定割草高度作为目标割草高度。
