Problems solved by technology

In general, with the method described in EP 2 065 774 A1 there is the risk that the ground handling equipment will unnecessarily travel a large path and thus delay the docking
In addition, among the many different strategies, there is also the risk for the control unit that the wrong driving strategy is selected and the docking with the base station is thus unnecessarily delayed

Embodiment Construction

[0071] specific implementation plan

[0072] figure 1 A first preferred embodiment of the floor treatment system according to the invention for carrying out the method according to the invention is shown in a perspective view. The floor treatment system is designed as a floor cleaning system 10 and includes a base station 12 and a floor treatment device designed as a floor cleaning device 14 . The floor cleaning device 14 is self-propelled and self-steering and is capable of autonomously cleaning floors.

[0073] The floor cleaning device 14 includes a housing 16 on which a running gear 18 is held so as to be movable over the floor surface. Typically, the floor cleaning device 14 is moved in its longitudinal direction 20 , so that the main direction of movement extends in the longitudinal direction 20 . The traveling mechanism 18 is driven by a motor 22 , which is controlled by a control unit 24 . Energy for the chassis 18 is provided by at least one rechargeable battery 2...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for the docking of self-propelled and self-steering ground processing equipment with a base station, wherein two or more transmission elements of the base station are used to transmit the respective docking which is extended spatially within the respective signal area Signals, wherein the signal areas overlap in sections and the docking signals have different signal representations, and wherein the docking signals are received by a receiving device of the ground handling device and evaluated by a control unit of the ground handling device. In order to provide a simple and reliable method for associating the ground surface processing equipment with the base station, according to the present invention, it is proposed that the control unit is used to calculate the actual orientation of the ground processing equipment relative to the base station in consideration of different signal representations. The preset or preset relative position relative to the base station is used to obtain the travel path of the ground processing equipment from the actual orientation to the representative target area, and the ground processing equipment moves to the representative target area, from which the representative Starting from the targeted target area, the ground processing equipment moves to the docking position of the base station. Furthermore, the invention also relates to a ground treatment system for carrying out the method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for the docking of self-propelled and self-steering ground processing equipment with a base station, wherein two or more transmission elements of the base station are used to transmit the respective docking, which is extended spatially within the respective signal area Signals, wherein the signal areas overlap in sections and the docking signals have different signal representations, and wherein the docking signals are received by a receiving device of the ground handling device and evaluated by a control unit of the ground handling device. [0002] Furthermore, the invention relates to a ground handling system for carrying out the method, the ground handling system comprising a base station and self-propelled and self-steering ground handling equipment, the base station having a transmitting device with two or more transmitting elements , the respective docking signals that are spatially extended in the respective signa...
