[0015] S1: Start the machine, collect surrounding environment information through the camera, and output the horizontal coordinates of the tile gap in the environment where the machine is currently located. A global shutter CMOS sensor with a resolution of ≥160×120 pixels and a frame rate of ≥30fps is used. The RGB image is converted to a grayscale image using grayscale conversion. Gaussian filtering is used for smoothing using a 3×3 Gaussian kernel to retain edge information. An adaptive threshold method is used to enhance the contrast between the target and the background and separate the gap from other parts. Based on the lateral deviation between the central axis of the caulking machine and the navigation path and the heading deflection angle parameters, a comprehensive evaluation is performed by analyzing the steering parameters, steering angle, and lateral displacement to generate trajectory correction parameters. The mobile frame is driven to adjust its position so that the grinding wheel of the caulking device corresponds to the tile gap.

[0016] S2: The grinding wheel rotates and then descends to clean the gaps between the floor tiles. The vacuum cleaner of the gap cleaning device sucks away the dust removed by the grinding wheel. The mobile frame starts to move forward and continues to clean the gaps between the floor tiles during the movement. The vacuum cleaner connected to the gap cleaning device continues to suck away the dust removed by the grinding wheel.

[0017] S3: The width of the gap is identified through visual recognition, and the width between the two tapes in the glue dispensing assembly of the glue dispensing device is adjusted. The glue dispensing assembly of the glue dispensing device is lowered to press the tapes on the ground. The third roller of the glue dispensing assembly continuously presses the tapes on both sides of the gap between the tiles as the mobile frame moves.

[0018] S4: The push block of the glue squeezing device moves toward the rubber hose, and the push block squeezes the caulking agent in the rubber hose from the glue outlet into the gaps between the floor tiles. As the moving frame moves, the glue squeezing device applies glue to the gaps between the floor tiles.

[0019] S5: The fourth driving device of the glue pressing device drives the pressing rod to descend, and the ball head of the pressing rod presses against the two side edges of the gap between the floor tiles. As the moving frame moves, the ball head squeezes out the excess caulking agent in the gap between the floor tiles, so that the excess caulking agent remains on the upper end surface of the tape;

[0020] S6: When the work on the gap of the floor tiles in a straight line is completed, the second telescopic device drives the third roller to lift up, and the motor fixed behind the electromagnetic clutch in the glue discharge component tightens the tape, and the tape is fixed to the ground by the glue pressing component in the glue application device, so that the tape is suspended in the air to form an angle. The glue cutting component in the glue application device extends the scissors to cut the tape, and the machine searches for the gap that needs to be caulked again.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0022] The present invention replaces manual caulking with an integrated caulking device, which not only reduces tedious manual steps but also reduces labor costs.

[0043] The machine of this embodiment is applicable to large-surface floor tile caulking. For the part where the gap between the floor tiles reaches the edge of the wall, manual caulking is required.

[0044] A method for beautifying caulking, using the above-mentioned floor tile beautifying caulking machine, comprises the following steps:

[0045] S1: Start the machine, collect the surrounding environment information through camera 3, and output the horizontal coordinates of the tile gap in the environment where the mobile robot is currently located. Use a global shutter CMOS sensor (such as OV7725) with a resolution of ≥160×120 pixels and a frame rate of ≥30fps to ensure dynamic measurement stability. Use grayscale conversion to convert the RGB image into a grayscale image to reduce the amount of data processing. Use Gaussian filtering with a 3×3 Gaussian kernel for smoothing to suppress noise and retain edge information. Use the adaptive threshold method (threshold range 0 to 70 grayscale values) to enhance the contrast between the target and the background, separate the gap and other parts, use Canny edge detection, set the double threshold to (50, 100), optimize edge continuity, and cooperate with ROI area limitation. By setting a rectangular area (such as x=25, y=27, w=99, h=54), irrelevant interference is eliminated, and the robustness of the system in various environments is improved to ensure that the machine can accurately identify the gaps in the tiles and complete the caulking work;

[0046] Based on the lateral deviation between the central axis of the equipment and the navigation path and the heading deflection angle parameters, a comprehensive evaluation is performed by analyzing the steering parameters, steering angle and lateral displacement to generate trajectory correction parameters. The optimized path correction instructions are transmitted to the underlying motion controller to achieve autonomous tracking motion of the machine along the target trajectory, driving the mobile frame 1 to adjust its position so that the grinding wheel 21 of the gap cleaning device 2 is aligned with the gap between the floor tiles;

[0047] S2: The grinding wheel 21 rotates and then descends to clean the gaps between the floor tiles. The vacuum cleaner of the gap cleaning device 2 sucks away the dust removed by the grinding wheel 21. The mobile frame 1 starts to move forward and continues to clean the gaps between the floor tiles during the movement. The vacuum cleaner connected to the gap cleaning device 2 continues to suck away the dust removed by the grinding wheel 21.

[0048] S3: After preprocessing in S1, use Hough transform to detect line segments. Parameter settings: angle tolerance ±2.5°, distance tolerance ±25 pixels, minimum segment length ≥50 pixels, filter short noise segments; use parallel line judgment criteria: the angle difference Δθ between two segments must satisfy |Δθ| < 1.5 or |Δθ-180°| < 1.5°, give priority to the two longest segments to ensure measurement stability; calculate the vertical distance: for inclined segments (θ ≠ 0°), calculate the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment ((x1+x2) / 2, (y1+y2) / 2); according to the formula d = |b2-b1| / √(1+k 2 ) Calculate the exact distance and intercept a horizontal line segment (θ = 0°): directly take the difference in the ordinates of the midpoints of the two line segments, d = |y2-y1|; use calibration compensation: perform pixel-to-physical size conversion using a standard component of known size to eliminate lens distortion errors; finally, mark the parallel lines, midpoint position, and measured width (e.g., "Width: 1.6mm") on the image interface;

[0049] The acquired tile gap width information is converted into motor parameters, which control the first motor 22 to rotate at different angles according to the tile gap width. The gap width is identified through visual recognition, and the width between the two tapes 411 in the glue dispensing assembly 41 of the glue applying device 4 is adjusted. The glue applying assembly 42 of the glue applying device 4 is lowered to press the tapes 411 against the ground.
