Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of intelligent cleaning robots, and in particular to a control method for a cleaning robot system. Background Art

[0002] The existing cleaning robots mainly have a vacuuming function, which mainly sucks the garbage particles on the ground into the dust box inside it, and the dust box collects the garbage. However, due to the limitation of the overall structure of the cleaning robot, the dust box needs to be emptied frequently, and even requires users to dump it every day. Therefore, there are base stations on the market. The base stations are mainly equipped with large-suction fans and large-volume garbage boxes. The large-suction fan works to dock and suck the garbage particles in the dust box of the cleaning robot into the garbage box, so that users can dump the garbage box regularly or periodically, which relatively improves the user experience.

[0003] Because the large suction fan on the base station absorbs garbage particles, a filtering structure must be set between the large suction fan and the garbage box to filter the airflow. Only after filtering can the airflow generated by the large suction fan be discharged into the indoor environment. If the filtration is not sufficient, the discharged airflow will pollute the indoor environment and fail to meet the standard requirements. Due to the large suction force of the airflow generated by the large suction fan, the filtering structure between the large suction fan and the garbage box is very complicated, resulting in the following main problems in the base station:

[0004] (1) In order to solve the complex difficulties of the filtering structure, some base stations set the garbage box as a disposable cloth bag. The cloth bag is made of a specific material to achieve a filtering effect. The high-suction fan generates suction to absorb the garbage particles in the dust box into the cloth bag, and at the same time achieves the filtering effect. The airflow passing through the cloth bag can be discharged normally into the indoor environment. However, the cost of the cloth bag is high, and users need to purchase and replace the cloth bag regularly. The cloth bag can only be used once and cannot be reused, resulting in high overall cost of the base station and low user acceptance. At the same time, the tiny garbage particles in the garbage particles will be adsorbed on the cloth bag under the action of the high-suction fan, and then block the filter holes of the cloth bag, causing the suction force of the high-suction fan to absorb the garbage particles to be lost, and then resulting in the failure of the garbage particles in the dust box to be absorbed. This also directly leads to the need for users to frequently replace the cloth bag to enable the base station to absorb and collect garbage particles, resulting in very high maintenance costs for the base station.

[0005] (2) In order to solve the complex and difficult problems of filtering, some base stations set up a multi-step and layered filtering system in the trash box. First, the large-volume garbage particles in the garbage particles are filtered at the initial level, and then the medium-volume garbage particles are filtered, and the smaller-volume garbage particles are further filtered. Finally, a precision filter layer is set to adsorb the tiny garbage particles. It can be seen that in order to solve the problem of filtering the air flow under the large suction fan, a multi-layer filtering system needs to be set up, and each filter layer needs to be cleaned regularly. The precision filter layer needs to be replaced regularly. If it is not cleaned and replaced in time, the filter system will be blocked by garbage particles and fail, causing the large suction fan to fail to absorb the garbage particles in the dust box. The construction cost of the filtering system is high, and the filter layer needs to be cleaned and replaced regularly. The filter layer is a consumable that needs to be replaced regularly, resulting in poor user experience and low acceptance. The maintenance cost of the base station in the later stage is also high. At the same time, when dumping the garbage in the trash box, there will be serious dust problems, resulting in a poor user experience when dumping the trash box. Summary of the Invention

[0011] Step S03: Starting the docking dust collection, the power mechanism is started to generate airflow suction to absorb the garbage particles in the garbage chamber of the cleaning robot, so that the garbage particles move and are separated by the separation box in the integrated station. After separation, some garbage particles are collected in the separation box and some garbage particles enter the garbage collection box;

[0012] Step S04: The garbage particles entering the dirt collecting box enter the cleaning liquid under the action of the airflow and mix with the cleaning liquid.

[0013] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system also includes, in step S03, under the suction of the airflow, heavy garbage particles are collected into the separation box under the action of gravity, and light garbage particles enter the garbage collection box with the airflow.

[0014] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system, in step S03, also includes a filter element provided in the separation box, and filter holes provided on the filter element. Large garbage particles that cannot pass through the filter holes are collected in the separation box, and small garbage particles that can pass through the filter holes enter the garbage collection box with the airflow.

[0015] In the aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system, the separation box is provided with a dust outlet through which garbage particles pass, and a height difference is provided between the dust outlet and the bottom of the separation box so that the dust outlet is located at the upper side of the bottom of the separation box, and so that some garbage particles are located at the bottom of the separation box and some garbage particles can enter the garbage collecting box through the dust outlet.

[0016] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system also includes, in step S03, when starting the docking dust collection, the power mechanism synchronously sucking the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts into the dirt collection box so that the cleaning liquid is mixed with the garbage particles, or synchronously starting the drainage mechanism to transfer the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts into the dirt collection box so that the cleaning liquid is mixed with the garbage particles.

[0017] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system, the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts enters the dirt collecting box through the first channel, the separation box is connected to the dirt collecting box through the second channel, and the first channel is located on one side of the second channel so that the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts sprays and mixes the garbage particles entering the dirt collecting box at the same time.

[0018] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system further includes, before step S02, step S01: the integrated station detects the liquid level in the dirt collection box before starting the docking dust collection to detect whether the liquid level in the dirt collection box meets a preset threshold A.

[0019] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system further includes in step S01 entering step S02 when the liquid level in the dirt collecting box meets the preset threshold A; if the liquid level in the dirt collecting box does not meet the preset threshold A, docking dust collection is not started.

[0020] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system further includes, in step S01, starting a liquid supply mechanism to supply cleaning liquid to the cleaning elements to perform spray cleaning or immersion cleaning on the cleaning elements if the liquid level in the dirt collecting tank does not meet a preset threshold value A.

[0021] The control method of the aforementioned cleaning robot system is that when the cleaning time of the cleaning element reaches a first preset time, the drainage mechanism is started to transfer the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning element to the dirt collection box, or the power mechanism is started to absorb the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning element into the dirt collection box.

[0022] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system synchronously detects whether the time the dirt collecting box is in place is continuous. If the time the dirt collecting box is in place is not continuous, step S01 is repeated; if the time the dirt collecting box is in place is continuous, the power mechanism is detected to start the number N of times the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts is sucked into the dirt collecting box. When N meets the preset threshold value B, step S02 is entered; or the drainage mechanism is detected to start the number M of times the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts is transferred to the dirt collecting box. When M meets the preset threshold value C, step S02 is entered.

[0023] In the aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system, the dirt detection module detects the dirtiness of the cleaning parts. When the dirtiness of the cleaning parts meets a preset threshold value D, the cleaning of the cleaning parts ends; when the dirtiness of the cleaning parts does not meet the preset threshold value D, the cleaning of the cleaning parts continues.

[0024] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system also includes in step S01, if the liquid level in the dirt collecting tank does not meet the preset threshold value A, starting the liquid supply mechanism to supply the cleaning liquid in the clean water tank into the dirt collecting tank, and synchronously detecting the liquid level in the dirt collecting tank until the liquid level in the dirt collecting tank meets the preset threshold value A, then entering step S02.

[0025] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system further includes, after step S04, step S05: closing the docking dust collector, starting the drainage mechanism to transfer the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts into the dirt collection box, or starting the power mechanism to absorb the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts into the dirt collection box.

[0026] In the aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system, in step S04, the garbage particles entering the garbage collecting box enter toward the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid under the action of the airflow and cause at least part of the garbage particles to mix with the cleaning liquid; or a garbage collecting channel is provided in the garbage collecting box for at least the passage of garbage particles, and the end of the garbage collecting channel is directed toward the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid, so that the garbage particles entering the garbage collecting channel enter the garbage collecting box toward the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid.

[0027] In the aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system, the end of the sewage collecting channel is located below the liquid level of the cleaning liquid, so that the garbage particles entering the sewage collecting channel directly enter the cleaning liquid for mixing; or the end of the sewage collecting channel is located below the liquid level of the cleaning liquid and faces the side and / or upper part of the sewage collecting box, so that the cleaning liquid enters the sewage collecting channel, and the garbage particles entering the sewage collecting channel are first mixed with the cleaning liquid before entering the sewage collecting box.

[0028] In the aforementioned control method for a cleaning robot system, the dirt collecting channel is configured as a floating structure, so that the dirt collecting channel rises and falls synchronously with the liquid level of the cleaning liquid in the dirt collecting tank.

[0029] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system also includes a spray channel provided in the dirt collecting box for spraying garbage particles entering the dirt collecting box, one end of the spray channel is located below the liquid level of the cleaning liquid, and the other end is located above the liquid level of the cleaning liquid; or it also includes a liquid blocking structure provided in the dirt collecting box, the liquid blocking structure is used to block the cleaning liquid that surges upward under the suction of the airflow and causes the cleaning liquid to form a barrier at the liquid blocking structure and fall back downward.

[0030] In the aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system, in step S03, the working power of the power mechanism includes P1 and P2, P1>P2, and when the power mechanism is started, the garbage particles in the garbage chamber are sucked into the separation box for separation using the working power of P1. When the time for the power mechanism to work with the working power of P1 reaches a second preset time, the power mechanism switches to working with the working power of P2 to suck the small-volume garbage particles or small-weight garbage particles separated from the separation box into the garbage collection box.

[0031] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system also includes, in step S03, starting a power mechanism to use a first working power to absorb small-volume garbage particles or small-weight garbage particles in the garbage chamber into a garbage collection box. When the power mechanism uses the first working power for a third preset time, the power mechanism switches to using a second working power to absorb large-volume garbage particles or large-weight garbage particles in the garbage chamber into a separation box. The first working power is less than the second working power.

[0032] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system, the power mechanism is connected to the dirt collecting box and is at least used to provide suction to the dirt collecting box to generate airflow, the dirt collecting box is at least connected to the separation box and the garbage chamber and can be used for the passage of airflow to absorb and move garbage particles, and the liquid supply mechanism is connected to the dirt collecting box and / or the cleaning area on the integrated station where cleaning parts are placed for cleaning.

[0033] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system also includes a power mechanism connected to the cleaning area, and a valve with an openable and closable structure is provided between the garbage collecting box and the garbage chamber. When the valve is opened, the power mechanism can simultaneously absorb the garbage particles in the garbage chamber and the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area into the garbage collecting box; when the valve is closed, the power mechanism can only absorb the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area into the garbage collecting box.

[0034] The control method of the aforementioned cleaning robot system replaces step S02 as follows: the cleaning robot docks on the integrated station, the power mechanism is started to generate airflow suction to suck the garbage particles in the garbage cavity of the cleaning robot into the separation box for separation, and after separation in the separation box, at least part of the garbage particles with small weight or small volume enter the dirt collection box, and at the same time, the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts is sucked into the dirt collection box, and the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid are mixed in the dirt collection box.

[0035] The aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system, after step S02 and before step S03, further includes step S0201: when the working time of the power mechanism reaches the fourth preset time, the power mechanism is turned off, and the cleaning robot leaves the integrated station to mop the floor, and when the mopping time reaches the fifth preset time, the cleaning robot walks to the integrated station and docks.

[0036] In the aforementioned control method of a cleaning robot system, in step S0201, when the cleaning robot walks to the integrated station and stops, the process returns to step S02 or proceeds to step S03;

[0037] Or when the cleaning robot walks to the integrated station and docks, it first enters step S0202: the power mechanism starts to absorb the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts into the dirt collection box, and detects the number of times Q that the power mechanism starts to absorb the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts into the dirt collection box. When Q meets the pre-set threshold E, it enters step S03.

[0038] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0039] The control method of the cleaning robot of this scheme is mainly to realize the docking and suction of the cleaning robot to collect garbage and collect the cleaning liquid of the cleaning parts, and combine the collection and matching into the dirt collection box to realize the mixing of garbage particles and cleaning liquid. The user only needs to dump the dirt collection box separately, which is convenient for user use and improves the user experience.

[0040] This solution sets up a separation box to pre-filter the garbage particles, so that smaller garbage particles that are easy to raise dust can enter the garbage collection box and be mixed with the cleaning. The mixing process has a filtering effect on the garbage particles, effectively eliminating the problem of dust in the garbage collection box, and solving the problem of the existing base station needing to set up multiple filtration systems.

[0041] The separation box of this solution can realize pre-filtration of garbage particles. Garbage particles with heavy weight or large volume are collected in the separation box, and garbage particles with light weight or small volume are sucked into the garbage collection box to mix with the cleaning liquid. There will be no dust problem in the garbage collection box and the separation box. At the same time, there is no need to set up a filtering system between the power mechanism and the garbage collection box. The overall structure is simple. Users can dump the separation box to separately deal with garbage particles with heavy weight or large volume, which is convenient for the separate treatment of garbage particles.

[0042] As for the sewage collection box and separation box, the separation box collects garbage particles with large weight or volume, so users can dump them into the trash can separately without the problem of dust. At the same time, the separation box can be dumped regularly or periodically. Since there are no garbage particles with small weight or volume that are easy to adhere to the separation box, the separation box is relatively dry and easy to dump. There is no need to flush the separation box, which is convenient for users to use. The sewage collection box collects the cleaning fluid after cleaning the cleaning parts and the garbage particles with small weight or volume and mixes them. The sewage collection box can be directly dumped into the sewer without clogging the sewer, and there is no problem of dust. The key point is that there is no need to set up a power mechanism and a filtration system for the sewage collection box, and there is no problem of replacing filter consumables, which is convenient for users to use.

[0043] In this solution, when there is a certain liquid level of cleaning liquid in the garbage collecting box, the garbage particles in the cleaning robot can be sucked into the garbage collecting box, so that the garbage particles enter the cleaning liquid for mixing. The cleaning liquid mixes the garbage particles so that the small particles in the garbage particles that are easy to raise dust are fully mixed into the water. The garbage collecting box no longer has the problem of raising dust, and the serious dust problem in existing base stations is solved.

[0044] At the same time, the garbage particles in this solution are mixed with the cleaning liquid, and under the action of the airflow, the garbage particles directly enter the cleaning liquid, and the cleaning liquid indirectly filters the mixed garbage particles, so that there is no need to set up a filtering system between the power mechanism and the sewage collection box. The cleaning liquid has a filtering effect, and there will be no problem of smaller garbage particles entering the power mechanism with the airflow and then being discharged into the room to affect the environment; after the garbage particles in this solution are mixed with the cleaning liquid, the garbage particles or dust in the airflow will be mixed with the cleaning liquid to achieve a filtering effect.

[0045] In this solution, the garbage particles enter the garbage collection box and are mixed with the cleaning liquid. The garbage collection box not only collects the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid, but also makes full use of the cleaning liquid collected after cleaning the cleaning parts and collects it into the garbage collection box to form a filtering effect on the garbage particles, thereby achieving a mixed filtration effect. Since it replaces the multiple filtration systems on the existing base station, the overall structure is simple and the subsequent maintenance cost is low. There is no need to set up the filtration system or disposable dust collection bags configured in the existing base station. There is no problem of filter system consumables or bags that need to be replaced regularly. The maintenance cost is extremely low and it is easy for users to use.

[0046] Because this solution uses the cleaning liquid in the dirt collection box to replace the filtering system or disposable dust collection bags configured on the existing base station, the overall structure of the integrated station is simple. Setting up a dirt collection box can solve the problem of mixed collection of garbage particles and the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts, and make full use of the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts of the integrated station to mix and filter the garbage particles. Because the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts must be collected, this solution uses the cleaning liquid to achieve mixed filtration of garbage particles while collecting, so that the integrated station has a simple structure, low cost, and is easy for users to use.

[0047] This solution sets up a power mechanism to absorb garbage particles and the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts. The power mechanism can be controlled separately to absorb garbage particles, or to absorb cleaning liquid separately, or to absorb garbage particles and cleaning liquid at the same time. At the same time, the power mechanism can absorb the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area and the garbage particles separated from the cleaning parts into the cleaning liquid. There is no need for manual cleaning of the garbage particles in the cleaning area, thereby improving the user experience.

[0048] The control method of this solution can ensure that there is a certain amount of cleaning liquid in the collection box before the garbage particles are sucked into the collection box, thereby ensuring that the cleaning liquid can mix the garbage particles and have a filtering effect, preventing the problem of mixing failure caused by abnormalities.

[0049] The control method of this scheme can also ensure that the cleaning liquid is sucked in and mixed at the same time as the garbage particles are sucked in, and the filtering effect of the garbage particles is achieved during the mixing process. There will be no problem that there is no cleaning liquid in the garbage collection box or the garbage particles are not mixed with the cleaning liquid in time when the garbage particles enter the garbage collection box, ensuring the effective mixing of the cleaning liquid and the garbage particles to achieve a filtering effect.

This belongs to the existing technology and will not be described in detail.

[0061] The integrated station 1 of the present solution is at least used for docking the cleaning robot 2, and after docking, it is used for docking dust collection and / or cleaning the cleaning part 201 of the cleaning robot 2. At the same time, the cleaning robot 2 can also be charged when docked on the integrated station 1, so that the power module in the cleaning robot 2 can be charged in time; a dirt collecting box 101 is provided on the integrated station 1, and the dirt collecting box 101 is at least used to collect the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 and some garbage particles in the docking dust collection. The dirt collecting box 101 not only collects garbage particles and cleaning liquid, but also makes full use of the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 to be collected in the dirt collecting box 101 to form a filtering effect on garbage particles, thereby achieving a mixed filtration effect, and solving the problem that the existing base station needs to set up disposable dust collection bags or set up multi-layer filtration systems, which brings high maintenance costs and the need to replace consumables regularly.

[0062] The cleaning robot 2 is provided with a cleaning part 201, which is used for mopping the floor for cleaning. Preferably, the cleaning part 201 is provided with a movable structure, and a motor is provided to drive the cleaning part 201 to rotate horizontally or rotate and roll, so that the cleaning robot 2 can use the self-movement of the cleaning part 201 to clean the cleaning part 201 when it is located on the integrated station 1; the integrated station 1 only needs to provide cleaning liquid, i.e., clean water, to the cleaning part 201, and does not need to provide a power structure for cleaning the cleaning part 201.

[0063] The components of the integrated station 1 include a sewage collection tank 101, a clean water tank 104, a separation tank 110, a cleaning area 109, a power mechanism 102, and a liquid supply mechanism 105. An electrical control board is provided in the integrated station 1, and a control module 100 is installed on the electrical control board. The control module 100 is electrically connected to the power mechanism 102 and the liquid supply mechanism 105 to control the start and stop of the work and the working time.

[0064] The garbage collecting box 101 is used to collect some garbage particles in the garbage chamber 202 in the cleaning robot 2, mainly collecting garbage particles with small weight or small volume that are easy to raise dust, and collecting the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201. The cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 is sewage, which mainly contains dirt and some garbage particles separated by the cleaning part 201.

[0065] The separation box 110 is used to separate the garbage particles. In the separation box 110, the garbage particles with large weight or volume are collected in the separation box 110, while the garbage particles with small weight or volume are collected in the garbage collection box 101 to be mixed with the cleaning liquid. The user can dump them separately to dispose of the garbage particles in the separation box 110.

[0066] The power mechanism 102 generates suction for the airflow, which can be a fan. Compared with the fan on the cleaning robot 2, it is a larger-power, large-suction fan. Due to its large suction force, it can be used to suck the garbage particles in the garbage cavity 202 in the cleaning robot 2 into the separation box 110, and some of the garbage particles enter the garbage collection box 101.

[0067] The power mechanism 102 is in communication with the dirt collecting box 101 , and the power mechanism 102 provides suction force to generate airflow to the dirt collecting box 101 , so that the dirt collecting box 101 collects part of the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid.

[0068] The cleaning area 109 is arranged on the bottom shell of the integrated station 1. The cleaning area 109 is used to place the cleaning parts 201. When the cleaning robot 2 is docked on the integrated station 1, the cleaning parts 201 are located in the cleaning area 109. At this time, the cleaning parts 201 can be used to clean in the cleaning area 109.

[0069] The clean water tank 104 contains cleaning liquid, and the cleaning liquid in the clean water tank 104 is clean water; the liquid supply mechanism 105 is used to supply the clean water in the clean water tank 104 to the cleaning area 109 for cleaning the cleaning parts 201, and the liquid supply mechanism 105 can be a water pump.

[0070] The integrated station 1 may further include a drainage mechanism 103 , which may be a water pump, for transferring the cleaning liquid, ie, sewage, in the cleaning area 109 to the sewage collecting tank 101 for collection.

[0071] The following steps are also included:

[0072] Step S02: The cleaning robot 2 is docked on the integrated station 1, and the dirt collecting tank 101 is filled with cleaning liquid at a certain height;

[0073] Step S03: The docking dust collection is started, and the power mechanism 102 is started to generate airflow suction to absorb the garbage particles in the garbage chamber 202 of the cleaning robot 2, so that the garbage particles move and are separated by the separation box 110 in the integrated station 1. After separation, some of the garbage particles are collected in the separation box 110 and some of the garbage particles enter the garbage collection box 101;

[0074] Step S04: The garbage particles entering the dirt collecting box 101 enter the cleaning liquid under the action of the airflow and are mixed with the cleaning liquid.

[0075] In step S02 , when the cleaning robot 2 docks at the integrated station 1 , the dirt collecting tank 101 is filled with cleaning liquid at a certain level. The cleaning liquid can be clean water or sewage, which can be set according to needs.

[0076] In step S03, the power mechanism 102 starts working, and a separation box 110 is also provided between the garbage collecting box 101 and the garbage cavity 202 of the cleaning robot 2. The separation box 110 serves to separate garbage particles. When the power mechanism 102 starts working, all the garbage particles in the garbage cavity 202 are first sucked into the separation box 110 for separation. At this time, mainly garbage particles with large weight or large volume are sucked and collected into the separation box 110, while garbage particles with small weight or small volume are sucked and collected into the garbage collecting box 101 and mixed with the cleaning liquid. In this way, the user can dump the garbage collecting box 101 and the separation box 110 separately. The sewage formed by the mixture of garbage particles in the garbage collecting box 101 and the cleaning liquid can be directly dumped into the sewer without clogging the sewer, and the garbage particles in the separation box 110 can be dumped into the trash can separately to realize garbage classification and processing.

[0077] In step S03, it also includes that under the suction of the airflow, the heavy garbage particles are collected into the separation box 110 under the action of gravity, and the light garbage particles enter the garbage collection box 101 with the airflow. The separation box 110 can be set to have a certain height of holding space. When the garbage particles enter the separation box 110, the heavy garbage particles fall under the action of gravity and are placed in the bottom area of ​​the separation box 110. At this time, this part of the garbage particles cannot be sucked upward into the garbage collection box 101 under the action of the airflow, and the light garbage particles are mainly dust or fine particles that are easy to raise dust or flocculent particles. Under the action of the airflow, they continue to enter the garbage collection box 101 with the airflow, thereby achieving the separation effect of the separation box 110 on the garbage particles.

[0078] In step S03, it also includes a filter element 1102 provided in the separation box 110, and filter holes are provided on the filter element 1102. Large garbage particles that cannot pass through the filter holes are collected in the separation box 110, and small garbage particles that can pass through the filter holes enter the garbage collection box 101 with the airflow; it is mainly to set the filter element 1102 in the separation box 110, and realize the filtering effect of garbage through the filter element 1102. A plurality of filter holes are provided on the filter element 1102, and the filter holes can be set to a certain aperture. The filter holes can separate large garbage particles from small garbage particles, and the aperture size can pass through the small garbage particles. These garbage particles enter the garbage collection box 101 with the airflow and mix with the cleaning liquid. The large garbage particles that cannot pass through the filter holes are blocked and fall down, and are collected and placed in the bottom area of ​​the separation box 110, thereby realizing the separation and filtering effect of the separation box 110 on the garbage particles.

[0079] Specifically, the separation box 110 is provided with a dust outlet 1101 for the passage of garbage particles. The dust outlet 1101 is used to realize the communication between the separation box 110 and the sewage collecting box 101 for the passage of garbage particles. A height difference is set between the dust outlet 1101 and the bottom of the separation box 110 so that the dust outlet 1101 is located at the upper side of the bottom of the separation box 110. The dust outlet 1101 can be located at the upper side of the side of the separation box 110. There is a certain height difference between the dust outlet 1101 and the bottom of the separation box 110 to form a space area for holding garbage particles, and to make part of the dust outlet 110 The garbage particles are located at the bottom of the separation box 110 and some of the garbage particles can enter the dirt collecting box 101 through the dust outlet 1101; after the garbage particles enter the separation box 110, the garbage particles with small weight or small volume will not sink and fall to the bottom area of ​​the separation box 110 under the action of the suction of the airflow, and can enter the dirt collecting box 101 through the dust outlet 1101 with the airflow to mix with the cleaning liquid, while the garbage particles with large weight or large volume cannot pass through the dust outlet 1101 with the airflow under the action of the suction of the airflow, thus achieving the separation effect of the garbage particles.

[0080] In step S04, under the action of the suction of the airflow, after the garbage particles are separated by the separation box 110, the small weight or small volume garbage particles that are easy to raise dust enter the garbage collecting box 101 and mix with the cleaning liquid to achieve the effect of mixed filtration, and finally the sewage is collected in the garbage collecting box 101, and then the airflow is discharged to the indoor and outdoor through the power mechanism 102 without polluting the indoor environment, solving the problem that the existing base station needs to set up disposable dust collection bags or set up multi-layer filtration systems, which brings high maintenance costs and the need to replace consumables regularly.

[0081] In step S03, it also includes starting the drainage mechanism 103 synchronously when starting the docking dust collection to transfer the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning component 201 to the dirt collection box 101 so that the cleaning liquid and the garbage particles are mixed; it is mainly because the power mechanism 102 plays the role of docking the dust collection to absorb the garbage particles in the garbage cavity 202 into the dirt collection box 101, and at the same time plays the role of the drainage mechanism 103 to separately transfer the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning component 201, that is, sewage, to the dirt collection box 101, so that the garbage particles in the dirt collection box 101 are mixed with the sewage.

[0082] Among them, the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 enters the dirt collecting box 101 through the first channel, and the garbage particles enter the dirt collecting box 101 through the second channel. The second channel is located between the separation box 110 and the dirt collecting box 101. The separation box 110 is connected to the garbage chamber 202 of the cleaning robot 2 through an independent channel, thereby realizing that the garbage chamber 202 is connected to the dirt collecting box 101 through the separation box 110, and the first channel is located on one side of the second channel so that the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 can spray and mix the garbage particles entering the dirt collecting box 101 while entering the dirt collecting box 101; mainly because the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 can form a spray mixing effect on the garbage particles entering the dirt collecting box 101 when entering the dirt collecting box 101, which is beneficial to improve the mixed filtration of the cleaning liquid on the garbage particles.

[0083] Before step S02, it also includes step S01: the integrated station 1 first detects the liquid level in the dirt collecting box 101 before starting the docking dust collection to detect whether the liquid level in the dirt collecting box 101 meets the preset threshold value A; it mainly ensures that there is a certain liquid level height of cleaning liquid in the dirt collecting box 101 after entering step S02, so as to achieve the effect of the garbage particles entering the separation box 110 and then being filtered and then entering the dirt collecting box 101 to be mixed and filtered with the cleaning liquid in the subsequent step S03; a liquid level sensor can be set to detect the liquid level height in the dirt collecting box 101, the liquid level sensor is electrically connected to the control module 100, and the threshold A is set in the control module 100. For example, the threshold A corresponds to the liquid level height in the dirt collecting box 101 of 10-50 mm. When the liquid level height reaches the threshold value A, it means that the cleaning liquid can mix and filter the garbage particles at this time, and the integrated station 1 can execute the starting power mechanism 102 to absorb the garbage particles into the dirt collecting box 101.

[0084] In step S01, when the liquid level in the garbage collecting box 101 meets the preset threshold value A, step S02 is entered. Step S02 is entered only after ensuring that the liquid level height in the garbage collecting box 101 meets the requirement. This can ensure that when the garbage particles are subsequently sucked into the garbage collecting box 101, there is cleaning liquid in the garbage collecting box 101 and it can be mixed and filtered with the cleaning liquid to achieve a sufficient mixing and filtering effect of the cleaning liquid on the garbage particles; if the liquid level in the garbage collecting box 101 does not meet the preset threshold value A, the docking dust collection will not be started to prevent the problem of sucking garbage particles when the liquid level of the cleaning liquid in the garbage collecting box 101 does not meet the threshold value A.

[0085] Step S01 also includes starting the liquid supply mechanism 105 to supply cleaning liquid to the cleaning element 201 to form spray cleaning or immersion cleaning of the cleaning element 201 if the liquid level in the dirt collecting tank 101 does not meet the preset threshold value A, and starting the liquid supply mechanism 105 to supply the cleaning liquid in the clean water tank 104, that is, clean water, to the cleaning area 109 for cleaning the cleaning element 201. After the cleaning of the cleaning element 201 is completed, the cleaning liquid, that is, sewage, formed in the cleaning area 109 can be collected into the dirt collecting tank 101. In this way, the liquid level height in the dirt collecting tank 101 can meet the threshold value A once or multiple times.

[0086] Among them, when the cleaning time of the cleaning part 201 reaches a first preset time, the first preset time can be set to 0.5-5 minutes, and the cleaning part 201 is rinsed or immersed in the first preset time, so that the dirt or adsorbed garbage particles on the cleaning part 201 are separated into the cleaning liquid, that is, clean water. The cleaning liquid after cleaning is completed forms sewage, and then the drainage mechanism 103 is started to transfer the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 to the sewage collection box 101, or the power mechanism 102 is started to absorb the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 into the sewage collection box 101; the execution power mechanism 102 can be set to absorb sewage into the sewage collection box 101, or the drainage mechanism 103 transfers sewage to the sewage collection box 101 as needed.

[0087] It also includes synchronously detecting whether the time the dirt collecting box 101 is in place is continuous. If the dirt collecting box 101 is not in place for a long time, step S01 is repeated, mainly to detect whether the dirt collecting box 101 is taken out and dumped by the user. If it is taken out and dumped by the user, step S01 is repeated to prevent the problem of absorbing garbage particles when the liquid level of the cleaning liquid in the dirt collecting box 101 does not meet the threshold A; a Hall sensor or an infrared sensor can be set to detect whether the dirt collecting box 101 is in place.

[0088] If it is detected that the dirt collecting box 101 is in place for a continuous time, it means that the dirt collecting box 101 has not been taken out by the user and the dirt collecting box 101 has been installed in place. The control module 100 controls the detection power mechanism 102 to start the number N of times the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 is sucked into the dirt collecting box 101. When N meets the preset threshold value B, step S02 is entered; as long as the number of times the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 is sucked into the dirt collecting box 101 by the detection power mechanism 102 is sucked into the dirt collecting box 101, the number N can be set according to the volume of the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 sucked into the dirt collecting box 101 in a single time. If the threshold value B is set to greater than 5, then N is greater than 5 times. At this time, it means that after the power mechanism 102 completes N times of sucking cleaning liquid into the dirt collecting box 101, the liquid level height of the cleaning liquid in the dirt collecting box 101 meets the threshold value A, then step S02 can be entered to prevent the problem of sucking garbage particles when the liquid level height of the cleaning liquid in the dirt collecting box 101 does not meet the threshold value A.

[0089] Alternatively, if it is detected that the dirt collecting box 101 is in place for a continuous time, it means that the dirt collecting box 101 has not been taken out by the user and the dirt collecting box 101 has been installed in place. The detection starts the drainage mechanism 103 to transfer the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 to the dirt collecting box 101 a number of times M. When M meets the preset threshold value C, step S02 is entered, which is to detect the number M of times the drainage mechanism 103 transfers the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 to the dirt collecting box 101. If the threshold value C is set to be greater than 5, M is represented as greater than 5 times. At this time, it means that after the liquid supply mechanism 105 completes M times of transferring the cleaning liquid to the dirt collecting box 101, the liquid level height of the cleaning liquid in the dirt collecting box 101 meets the threshold value A, then step S02 can be entered to prevent the problem of absorbing garbage particles when the liquid level height of the cleaning liquid in the dirt collecting box 101 does not meet the threshold value A.

[0090] Among them, a dirt detection module can also be set to detect the dirtiness of the cleaning member 201. When the dirtiness of the cleaning member 201 meets a preset threshold value D, the cleaning of the cleaning member 201 is completed; when the dirtiness of the cleaning member 201 does not meet the preset threshold value D, the cleaning of the cleaning member 201 continues; for example, a threshold value A is set in the control module 100, and the threshold value A corresponds to the dirtiness or a numerical value representing the dirtiness. When the threshold value A is met, it means that the cleaning member 201 has been cleaned, and the cleaning is completed at this time. If the threshold value A is not met, it means that the cleaning member 201 has not been completely cleaned and needs to be continuously cleaned or cleaned again. When cleaning again, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109, that is, the sewage, can be collected into the dirt collecting box 101 first, and then the liquid supply mechanism 105 can be controlled to supply cleaning liquid, that is, clean water to the cleaning area 109 for cleaning the cleaning member 201. This is repeated until the cleaning member 201 is clean.

[0091] A dirt detection sensor may be directly installed on one side of the cleaning member 201 to detect the degree of dirtiness of the cleaning member 201 .

[0092] The time for the cleaning robot 2 to return to the integrated station 1 for cleaning can be determined based on the degree of dirtiness of the cleaning part 201 , that is, when the degree of dirtiness of the cleaning part 201 reaches a certain preset condition, the cleaning robot 2 returns to the integrated station 1 to clean the cleaning part 201 .

[0093] In step S01, it is also included that if the liquid level in the sewage collecting tank 101 does not meet the preset threshold value A, the liquid supply mechanism 105 is started to supply cleaning liquid to the sewage collecting tank 101 until the liquid level in the sewage collecting tank 101 meets the preset threshold value A, and then enters step S02; mainly if the cleaning liquid level in the sewage collecting tank 101 is low or there is no cleaning liquid, the clean water in the clean water tank 104 can be supplied to the sewage collecting tank 101 through the liquid supply mechanism 105, so that the cleaning liquid in the sewage collecting tank 101 meets the preset threshold value A, so that the integrated station 1 can enter step S02 to ensure that the garbage particles can be mixed and filtered with the cleaning liquid when the garbage particles are subsequently sucked into the sewage collecting tank 101.

[0094] After step S04, step S05 is also included: closing the docking dust collection, starting the drainage mechanism 103 to transfer the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 to the dirt collection box 101, or the power mechanism 102 is started to absorb the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 into the dirt collection box 101. In step S05, only the transfer or absorption of the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 is performed. The power mechanism 102 can be used to absorb the cleaning area 109 in the cleaning area 109 into the dirt collection box 101, or a separate drainage mechanism 103 can be set to transfer the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 to the dirt collection box 101. Because the drainage mechanism 103 can be set as a water pump or an electromagnetic pump, the drainage mechanism 103 has very little noise compared to the power mechanism 102, and will not affect the user experience. The use of the drainage mechanism 103 is more suitable for the working state where the cleaning part 201 needs to be cleaned frequently, and the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 can be transferred to the dirt collection box 101 in time without affecting the user experience.

[0095] In step S05, the cleaning robot 2 can frequently travel back and forth between the ground and the integrated station 1. After completing mopping and cleaning for a certain time or a certain area, the cleaning robot 2 returns to the integrated station 1 in time, and then the liquid supply mechanism 105 supplies the clean water in the clean water tank 104 to the cleaning area 109. At this time, the cleaning part 201 can be cleaned in the cleaning area 109. After the cleaning is completed, the cleaning robot 2 leaves the integrated station 1 and returns to the ground to continue mopping and cleaning. In this way, the mopping of the ground and the timely cleaning of the cleaning part 201 are achieved.

[0096] In step S04, the garbage particles entering the garbage collecting box 101 are moved toward the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid under the action of the airflow and at least part of the garbage particles are mixed with the cleaning liquid; the garbage particles can move toward the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid after entering the garbage collecting box 101 and mix with the cleaning liquid in time, thereby improving the mixed filtration effect.

[0097] In step S04, a sewage collecting channel 1011 is provided in the sewage collecting box 101 for at least passing garbage particles, and the end of the sewage collecting channel 1011 is directed toward the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid, so that the garbage particles entering the sewage collecting channel 1011 enter the sewage collecting box 101 toward the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid; the end of the sewage collecting channel 1011 can be directed toward the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid, so that the garbage particles can be in contact with and mixed with the cleaning liquid in a timely manner.

[0098] The outlet of the sewage collecting channel 1011 connected to the internal space of the sewage collecting box 101 can be oriented toward the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid, so that the garbage particles enter the internal space of the sewage collecting box 101 from the sewage collecting channel 1011 directly toward the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid, which is conducive to the timely mixing of the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid.

[0099] Among them, the end of the sewage collecting channel 1011 can also be located below the liquid level of the cleaning liquid, so that the garbage particles entering the sewage collecting channel 1011 can directly enter the cleaning liquid for mixing; the cleaning liquid can submerge the end or part of the end of the sewage collecting channel 1011, so that the garbage particles can be mixed with the cleaning liquid as soon as they enter the sewage collecting box 101, which is conducive to improving the mixing effect and can effectively prevent the problem that the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid cannot be mixed in time.

[0100] In step S04, a sewage collecting channel 1011 is provided in the sewage collecting box 101 for at least passing garbage particles. The end of the sewage collecting channel 1011 is located below the liquid level of the cleaning liquid and faces the side and / or upper part of the sewage collecting box 101, so that the cleaning liquid enters the sewage collecting channel 1011, and the garbage particles enter the sewage collecting channel 1011 and are first mixed with the cleaning liquid before entering the sewage collecting box 101; the end of the sewage collecting channel 1011 is located below the liquid level, and at the same time, the cleaning liquid enters the sewage collecting channel 1011, so that the garbage particles can be pre-mixed in the sewage collecting channel 1011 before entering the sewage collecting box 101, thereby further improving the mixing effect of the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid.

[0101] In the sewage collecting box 101 in this scheme, a sewage collecting channel 1011 is set in the sewage collecting box 101, and the sewage collecting channel 1011 is set to a floating structure, so that the sewage collecting channel 1011 rises and falls synchronously with the liquid level of the cleaning liquid in the sewage collecting box 101; the floating structure of the sewage collecting channel 1011 makes the sewage collecting channel 1011 always rise synchronously with the increase of the liquid level in the sewage collecting box 101, preventing the sewage collecting channel 1011 from being flooded with too much cleaning liquid due to being located at the bottom of the sewage collecting box 101, resulting in the weakening of the airflow through the sewage collecting channel 1011, because after the cleaning liquid floods a part of the sewage collecting channel 1011, a certain liquid level pressure will be formed, resulting in the weakening of the ability of the airflow through the sewage collecting channel 1011.

[0102] Specifically, the floating structure can be a float set on the sewage collecting channel 1011. The float has a certain area. The float can drive the sewage collecting channel 1011 to float on the liquid surface in the sewage collecting box 101. The corresponding sewage collecting channel 1011 is set to a soft structure or a retractable structure to achieve the floating structure of the sewage collecting channel 1011; or a sliding mechanism can be installed on the sewage collecting channel 1011, and the sliding mechanism is installed with a motor, and the sewage collecting channel 1011 is driven to float and rise and fall by the motor.

[0103] The sewage collection box 101 of this scheme also includes a spray channel 106 provided in the sewage collection box 101 for spraying the garbage particles entering the sewage collection box 101. One end of the spray channel 106 is located below the liquid level of the cleaning liquid, and the other end is located above the liquid level of the cleaning liquid. Under the action of the suction force of the airflow, the cleaning liquid in the sewage collection box 101 will surge to a certain extent. The surging cleaning liquid enters the spray channel 106 through one end of the spray channel 106, and then gushes out through the other end of the spray channel 106 to form an effect similar to a spray or waterfall, which can accelerate the fall of the cleaning liquid and make the cleaning liquid spray the garbage particles entering the sewage collection box 101. The spray mixing effect of the particles is beneficial to the full mixing of the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid; at the same time, it can also play a multi-layer mixed filtration effect, that is, when the garbage particles enter the garbage collecting box 101, they are first mixed with the cleaning liquid that is not surging at the bottom, and then the cleaning liquid sprayed out by the spray channel 106 performs secondary mixing and filtration on the airflow. Because the airflow will eventually return to the motor mechanism through the cleaning liquid and then be discharged into the indoor environment, the spray channel 106 achieves a better mixing and filtration effect; at the same time, it is beneficial to form a stirring effect on the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid in the garbage collecting box 101, preventing the garbage particles from gathering and settling at a certain position in the garbage collecting box 101.

[0104] The dirt collecting box 101 of the present solution also includes a liquid blocking structure 107 provided in the dirt collecting box 101. The liquid blocking structure 107 is used to block the cleaning liquid that surges upward under the suction of the airflow and makes the cleaning liquid form a barrier at the liquid blocking structure 107 and fall back downward. The liquid blocking structure 107 is mainly arranged in the upper part of the dirt collecting box 101. When the power mechanism 102 is working, the cleaning liquid in the dirt collecting box 101 will surge to a certain extent under the suction of the airflow. By providing the liquid blocking structure 107, the surging cleaning liquid can be effectively blocked, so that the cleaning liquid falls back to the lower area of ​​the dirt collecting box 101 in time, thereby achieving timely and sufficient mixing of the garbage particles entering the dirt collecting box 101 with the cleaning liquid.

[0105] The liquid blocking structure 107 can be configured as a sheet structure or a mesh structure to form a rectifying effect. The liquid blocking structure 107 can change the direction of the airflow, but cannot block the airflow path between the power mechanism 102 and the dirt collecting box 101 .

[0106] In step S03, the working power of the power mechanism 102 includes P1 and P2, P1>P2, and when the power mechanism 102 is started, the garbage particles in the garbage chamber 202 are sucked into the separation box 110 with the working power of P1 for separation. When the time for the power mechanism 102 to work with the working power of P1 reaches a second preset time, the power mechanism 102 switches to working with the working power of P2 to suck the small-volume garbage particles or small-weight garbage particles separated by the separation box 110 into the garbage collection box 101; when the power mechanism 102 is started, the P1 power is first used, that is, the high power is first used to suck the garbage particles into the separation box 110, and then the separation box 110 separates the garbage particles. After separation, the power mechanism 102 switches to using the low power to suck the small-weight or small-volume garbage particles into the garbage collection box 101 is mixed with the cleaning liquid; the value of the second preset time can be set to control the working power of the switching power mechanism 102, such as the second preset time is set to 1-10 seconds. Under the action of high power P1, the garbage particles in the garbage cavity 202 are all sucked into the separation box 110, and are separated in time in the separation box 110. Then, under the action of low power, because the working power of the power mechanism 102 is small, the cleaning liquid in the garbage collecting box 101 is weakly turbulent or even does not surge under the action of the airflow, so that the garbage particles with light weight or small volume that are easy to raise dust slowly enter the garbage collecting box 101 and are fully mixed with the cleaning liquid, thereby achieving better mixed filtering effect, and effectively preventing the problem of garbage particles that are easy to raise dust from entering the power mechanism 102 with the airflow and being discharged into the indoor polluting environment.

[0107] The integrated station 1 and cleaning robot 2 of the present scheme also include a power mechanism 102 connected to the dirt collecting box 101 for at least providing suction force to generate airflow to the dirt collecting box 101, an independent mechanism generates suction force of airflow to the dirt collecting box 101, and the dirt collecting box 101 is connected to at least the separation box 110 and the garbage chamber 202 for the passage of airflow to absorb garbage particles into the dirt collecting box 101. Under the action of the suction force of the airflow, the garbage in the garbage chamber 202 of the cleaning robot 2 will be sucked into the separation box 110 along with the airflow. After the separation box 110 separates the garbage particles, the garbage particles with small weight or small volume enter the dirt collecting box 101 along with the airflow, thereby realizing the absorption and collection of garbage particles by the integrated station 1, part of the garbage particles are collected in the separation box 110, and part of the garbage particles are collected in the dirt collecting box 101; the liquid supply mechanism 105 is connected to the dirt collecting box 101 and / or the cleaning part 20 is placed on the integrated station 1 The cleaning area 109 for cleaning is connected to the cleaning area 109 for cleaning. The liquid supply mechanism 105 is mainly used to supply the cleaning liquid in the clean water tank 104, that is, clean water, into the cleaning area 109 or the dirt collecting tank 101. It mainly supplies clean water to the cleaning area 109 to clean the cleaning element 201. After the cleaning element 201 completes cleaning in the cleaning area 109, sewage is generated, and the sewage can be sucked into the dirt collecting tank 101 for collection. The liquid supply mechanism 105 can also be used to supply clean water to the dirt collecting tank 101 for cleaning the dirt collecting tank 101, or when the liquid level of the cleaning liquid in the dirt collecting tank 101 does not meet the preset threshold value A in step S01, the liquid supply mechanism 105 supplies clean water to the dirt collecting tank 101 to make the liquid level in the dirt collecting tank 101 meet the preset threshold value A, and then the power mechanism 102 can be started to suck garbage particles into the dirt collecting tank 101 to mix with the clean water, thereby achieving a mixed filtering effect of the clean water on the garbage particles.

[0108] The liquid supply mechanism 105 can be configured as a water pump or an electromagnetic pump, and only needs to supply the cleaning liquid.

[0109] In this solution, the power mechanism 102 is also connected to the cleaning area 109. When the power mechanism 102 is started, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109, i.e., the sewage, and the garbage particles remaining in the cleaning area 109 can be sucked into the sewage collecting box 101. A valve member 108 with an openable and closable structure is provided between the sewage collecting box 101 and the garbage cavity 202. The opening and closing structure between the sewage collecting box 101 and the garbage cavity 202 is realized by providing the valve member 108. When the valve member 108 is opened, the garbage particles in the garbage cavity 202 can be sucked into the sewage collecting box 101. When the valve member 108 is closed, the power mechanism 102 cannot suck the garbage particles in the garbage cavity 202, or when the valve member 108 is closed, the power mechanism 102 cannot suck the garbage particles in the garbage cavity 202. When valve 08 is open, the power mechanism 102 can simultaneously absorb the garbage particles in the garbage chamber 202 and the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 into the dirt collecting box 101; when valve 08 is closed, the power mechanism 102 can only absorb the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 into the dirt collecting box 101; the installation position of the valve member 108 can be set as needed. The valve member 108 can be installed on the cleaning robot 2, or on the outside of the garbage chamber 202, or can be installed between an independent pipe or channel connecting the dirt collecting box 101 and the garbage chamber 202. It can be set as needed. The valve member 108 can be a solenoid valve that can control the opening and closing of the solenoid valve, or it can be other valves with an opening and closing structure.

[0110] In step S03, the power mechanism 102 starts to use the first working power to suck the small-volume garbage particles or the light-weight garbage particles in the garbage cavity 202 into the garbage collection box 101. When the power mechanism 102 uses the first working power for a third preset time, the power mechanism 102 switches to using the second working power to suck the large-volume garbage particles or the heavy-weight garbage particles in the garbage cavity 202 into the separation box 110. The first working power is lower than the second working power; that is, the power mechanism 102 first uses the first working power, which can be 300- 700 watts, that is, low power is used to absorb garbage particles. Under low power operation, it has a certain separation effect on garbage particles. Under low power operation, the suction force of the airflow generated by the power mechanism 102 is relatively small. At this time, it can absorb garbage particles with small volume or small weight into the garbage collection box 101. At this time, this part of the garbage particles is mixed with the cleaning liquid in the garbage collection box 101. Because the suction force of the power mechanism 102 is small, the cleaning liquid in the garbage collection box 101 is not easy to surge under the action of the airflow, so that this part of the garbage particles can be fully mixed with the cleaning liquid. The washing liquid is mixed with the sewage, and the overall mixing is more sufficient. The third preset time can be set to 0.5-5 minutes. When the absorption time reaches the third preset time, the power of the power mechanism 102 is increased to the second working power. The second working power can be 800-1200 watts. Under high-power operation, the suction force of the airflow generated by the power mechanism 102 is large, and the large-weight or large-volume garbage particles can be sucked into the separation box 110 through the large suction force. At this time, most of the small-weight or small-volume garbage particles in the garbage particles have been sucked into the separation box 110 before. The garbage particles sucked in at high power enter the separation box 110, so there will be no impact even if the cleaning liquid surges under the action of the airflow. There is no problem of the airflow carrying away small or light garbage particles into the power mechanism 102 and being discharged to the indoor polluting environment. By first sucking in the garbage particles that are easy to raise dust at low power and fully mixing them with the cleaning liquid, and then sucking in the garbage particles that are not easy to raise dust at high power into the separation box 110 and mixing them with the cleaning liquid, the step-by-step mixing makes the cleaning liquid have a better mixed filtration effect on the garbage particles and more complete mixing.

[0111] For the cleaning member 201 in this solution, the cleaning member 201 can be a mop with a flat structure or a mop with a cylindrical structure. The cleaning member 201 can be set to a structure with a vibrating motion, a reciprocating motion, a structure that rotates horizontally in contact with the ground, or a structure that rotates and rolls relative to the ground. It only needs to be able to contact the ground for mopping and cleaning.

[0112] Optionally, the cleaning member 201 of the present embodiment is configured to have a structure that can rotate horizontally in contact with the ground to perform mopping and cleaning. When the cleaning member 201 contacts the ground, the contact portion forms a planar structure. The cleaning member 201 includes a first rotating member and a second rotating member. The first rotating member and the second rotating member are respectively located on both sides of the rear side of the bottom of the cleaning robot 2 or on both sides of the front side of the bottom, and the horizontal rotation directions of the first rotating member and the second rotating member are opposite to perform mopping and cleaning of the ground.

[0113] Among them, the first rotating member and the second rotating member can be respectively located on both sides of the bottom front side of the cleaning robot 2 to ensure a large single cleaning area and sufficiently large friction between the ground, and to gather garbage to the suction port, thereby achieving a better mopping cleaning effect; the first rotating member and the second rotating member can also be located on both sides of the bottom rear side of the cleaning robot 2 to achieve an increased mopping cleaning area coverage effect.

[0114] In order to achieve a better mopping effect, the first rotating member and the second rotating member are respectively located on both sides of the front side of the bottom of the cleaning robot 2; the corresponding first rotating member and the second rotating member are set to realize left and right mopping cleaning of the ground, which can realize driving and guiding the garbage on the ground to gather backward to the dust suction port. The first rotating member and the second rotating member are mainly set to have opposite horizontal rotation directions, and are set to rotate horizontally along the outer side toward the inner side of the bottom of the cleaning robot 2 and along the front side toward the rear side of the bottom of the cleaning robot 2. The opposite horizontal rotation directions of the first rotating member and the second rotating member can realize the offset of the rotational force generated by the two, and avoid the resistance caused by horizontal rotation affecting the normal walking of the cleaning robot 2; by setting the first rotating member and the second rotating member to rotate horizontally along the front side toward the rear side of the bottom of the cleaning robot 2, the first rotating member and the second rotating member can both drive the garbage on the ground from front to back to gather near the dust suction port position area, thereby realizing the concentrated collection and absorption effect of garbage and realizing the mutual offset of the rotational forces.

[0115] Optionally, the cleaning member 201 of the present embodiment is configured to have a structure that can rotate and roll relative to the ground to perform mopping and cleaning. When the cleaning member 201 contacts the ground, the contact portion thereof forms a planar structure. The cleaning member 201 includes at least one rotary drag member, and the number of rotary drag members is one or more. The rotary drag member rolls on the ground to perform mopping and cleaning, or when the number of the rotary drag members is two, the rotary drag member includes a first rotary drag member and a second rotary drag member, and the first rotary drag member and the second rotary drag member are in a parallel distribution structure.

[0116] Among them, the first rotary drag member and the second rotary drag member can be set to a cylindrical structure, and are set to include at least a soft deformable structure; the first rotary drag member and the second rotary drag member are arranged in parallel and side by side, and the first rotary drag member and the second rotary drag member are both in contact with the ground and form a planar structure, the first rotary drag member and the second rotary drag member have opposite rotation and rolling directions, and the forces acting on the cleaning robot 2 offset each other, ensuring that the first rotary drag member or the second rotary drag member does not affect the normal walking of the cleaning robot 2, and ensuring the stability of the walking route; if only the first rotary drag member or the second rotary drag member is set, although the rotary rolling mopping effect of the ground can be achieved at this time, there will be problems affecting the normal walking of the cleaning robot 2; at the same time, the first rotary drag member and the second rotary drag member are at least set to a structure that interferes with each other so that the particulate garbage thereon is scraped off to the ground by mutual interference, which is beneficial to improving its ability to absorb dirt and garbage, extending the cleaning time of mopping and achieving better mopping effect.

[0117] In order to achieve a better mopping effect, the rotation and rolling direction of the first rotary drag member is along the front side toward the rear side of the cleaning robot 2 and is opposite to the forward direction of the cleaning robot 2; at this time, the first rotary drag member can push the larger garbage on the ground to the dust suction port position during the rotation and rolling process, and form an effect of throwing the larger garbage forward, and the larger garbage can be sucked into the garbage chamber 202 by the dust suction port in time; the rotation and rolling direction of the second rotary drag member is along the rear side toward the front side of the cleaning robot 2 and is the same as the forward direction of the cleaning robot 2. At this time, the second rotary drag member scrapes and cuts the garbage on the ground backwards, and cooperates with the first rotary drag member to pre-clean and deep-clean the garbage on the ground, thereby achieving a better mopping cleaning effect.

[0118] The control method of the cleaning robot 2 of this scheme is mainly to realize the docking and suction of the cleaning robot 2 to collect garbage and the collection of the cleaning liquid of the cleaning part 201, and to combine the collection and matching in the dirt collection box 101 to realize the mixing of garbage particles and cleaning liquid. The user only needs to dump the dirt collection box 101 separately, which is convenient for user use and improves the user experience effect.

[0119] This solution sets up a separation box 110, which pre-filters the garbage particles through the separation box 110, so that smaller garbage particles that are easy to raise dust can enter the garbage collection box 101 and be mixed with the cleaning. The mixing process has a filtering effect on the garbage particles, effectively eliminating the problem of dust raising in the garbage collection box 101, and solving the problem that the existing base station needs to set up multiple filtering systems.

[0120] The separation box 110 of this solution can realize the pre-filtration of garbage particles. Garbage particles with large weight or volume are collected in the separation box 110, and garbage particles with small weight or volume are sucked into the garbage collecting box 101 to be mixed with the cleaning liquid. There will be no dust problem in the garbage collecting box 101 and the separation box 110. At the same time, there is no need to set up a filtering system between the power mechanism 102 and the garbage collecting box 101. The overall structure is simple. The user can dump the separation box 110 to separately deal with garbage particles with large weight or volume, which is convenient for the separate treatment of garbage particles.

[0121] As for the garbage collecting box 101 and the separation box 110, since the separation box 110 collects garbage particles of large weight or volume, the user can dump them into the trash can separately without the problem of dust. At the same time, the separation box 110 can be dumped regularly or periodically. Since there are no garbage particles of small weight or volume that are easy to adhere to the separation box 110, the separation box 110 is relatively dry and easy to dump. There is no need to flush the separation box 110, which is convenient for users to use. The cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 and the garbage particles of small weight or volume are collected in the garbage collecting box 101 and mixed. The garbage collecting box 101 can be directly dumped into the sewer without clogging the sewer, and there is no problem of dust. The key point is that there is no need to set up a power mechanism 102 and a filtration system for the garbage collecting box 101, and there is no problem of replacing filter consumables, which is convenient for users to use.

[0122] In this solution, when there is a certain liquid level of cleaning liquid in the garbage collecting box 101, the garbage particles in the cleaning robot 2 can be started to be sucked into the garbage collecting box 101, so that the garbage particles enter the cleaning liquid for mixing. The cleaning liquid mixes the garbage particles so that the small particles in the garbage particles that are easy to raise dust are fully mixed into the water. The garbage collecting box 101 no longer has the problem of raising dust, and the serious dust problem in the existing base stations is solved.

[0123] At the same time, the garbage particles in this solution are mixed with the cleaning liquid, and under the action of the airflow, the garbage particles directly enter the cleaning liquid, and the cleaning liquid indirectly filters the mixed garbage particles, so that there is no need to set up a filtering system between the power mechanism 102 and the garbage collecting box 101. The cleaning liquid has a filtering effect, and there will be no problem of smaller garbage particles entering the power mechanism 102 with the airflow and then being discharged into the room to affect the environment; after the garbage particles in this solution are mixed with the cleaning liquid, the garbage particles or dust in the airflow will be mixed with the cleaning liquid to achieve a filtering effect.

[0124] In this solution, the garbage particles enter the garbage collecting box 101 and are mixed with the cleaning liquid. The garbage collecting box 101 not only collects the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid, but also makes full use of the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 and collects it into the garbage collecting box 101 to form a filtering effect on the garbage particles, thereby achieving a mixed filtering effect. Since it replaces the multiple filtering systems on the existing base station, the overall structure is simple and the subsequent maintenance cost is low. There is no need to set up the filtering system or disposable dust collection bags configured in the existing base station. There is no problem of filtering system consumables or bags that need to be replaced regularly. The maintenance cost is extremely low and it is easy for users to use.

[0125] Because this solution uses the cleaning liquid in the dirt collecting box 101 to replace the filtering system or disposable dust collecting bags configured on the existing base station, the overall structure of the integrated station 1 is simple. Setting up a dirt collecting box 101 can solve the problem of mixed collection of garbage particles and the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts 201, and make full use of the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts 201 of the integrated station 1 to mix and filter the garbage particles. Because the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning parts 201 must be collected, this solution uses the cleaning liquid to achieve mixed filtration of garbage particles while collecting, so that the integrated station 1 has a simple structure, low cost, and is easy for users to use.

[0126] A control method for a cleaning robot 2, replacing step S02 as follows: the cleaning robot 2 docks on the integrated station 1, and the power mechanism 102 is started to generate airflow suction to suck the garbage particles in the garbage chamber 202 in the cleaning robot 2 into the separation box 110 for separation, and after separation, some of the garbage particles with small weight or small volume enter the garbage collection box 101, and at the same time, the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 is sucked into the garbage collection box 101.

[0127] That is, in the replacement step S02, when the cleaning robot 2 docks on the integrated station 1, the power mechanism 102 starts to absorb the garbage particles. During the absorption process, the power mechanism 102 first absorbs the garbage particles into the separation box 110 for separation. The garbage particles with large weight or large volume are collected in the separation box 110, and the garbage particles with small weight or small volume are sucked into the garbage collection box 101.

[0128] Among them, the power machine is started mainly to simultaneously realize the absorption of garbage particles and the absorption of cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 to form a mixture, or enter the garbage collecting box 101 to form a mixture, or the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid can be mixed during the absorption process and then enter the garbage collecting box 101 together. The garbage collecting box 101 can be set to be connected at least in a part that is connected to the garbage chamber 202 of the cleaning robot 2 and the cleaning area 109. In this way, some garbage particles and cleaning liquid can be mixed in the process of entering the garbage collecting box 101, and then enter the garbage collecting box 101 to be collected and stored after mixing, which can improve the mixing effect of garbage particles and cleaning liquid, and can improve the mixed filtering effect of cleaning liquid on garbage particles.

[0129] Before step S02, the control method of the cleaning robot 2 can be consistent with that in the unreplaced step S02, including step S01, detecting the liquid level height in the dirt collecting tank 101, or first sucking the cleaning liquid into the dirt collecting tank 101, or the liquid supply mechanism 105 first supplies the cleaning liquid to the dirt collecting tank 101, or first transferring the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 to the dirt collecting tank 101 through the liquid discharge mechanism 103, and the description will not be repeated here as before.

[0130] For the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109, the liquid supply mechanism 105 mainly supplies the cleaning liquid in the clean water tank 104, that is, the clean water in the clean water tank 104, into the cleaning area 109 to clean the cleaning element 201. The self-movement of the cleaning element 201 can be used for flushing or immersion cleaning in the cleaning area 109. After the cleaning element 201 completes cleaning in the cleaning area 109, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 is sewage, and the sewage also contains some garbage particles separated from the cleaning element 201, which can be sucked into the sewage collecting box 101 by the motor mechanism, or the cleaning liquid, that is, sewage, can be transferred to the sewage collecting box 101 by the drainage mechanism 103. When it is necessary to suck the garbage particles in the garbage cavity 202, the power mechanism 102 is started to suck the garbage particles into the sewage collecting box 101 and mix them with the sewage.

[0131] After step S02 and before step S03, step S0201 is also included: when the working time of the power mechanism 102 reaches the fourth preset time, the power mechanism 102 is turned off, and the cleaning robot 2 leaves the integrated station 1 to mop the floor, and when the mopping time reaches the fifth preset time, the cleaning robot 2 walks to the integrated station 1 and docks; that is, the cleaning robot 2 spends most of its time vacuuming and mopping the floor on the floor. When the cleaning robot 2 is located and docked on the integrated station 1, the cleaning liquid in the clean water tank 104 is clean water supplied to the cleaning area 109 under the action of the liquid supply mechanism 105, and then the cleaning part 201 is cleaned. After the cleaning of the cleaning part 201 is completed, the power mechanism 102 works to absorb garbage particles or the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109. Or it can absorb garbage particles and cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 at the same time. When the working time of the power mechanism 102 reaches the fourth preset time, the value of the fourth working time can be set according to the volume of the garbage chamber 202 and the volume of the cleaning area 109, such as 0.5-2 minutes. During this time, most or all of the garbage particles in the garbage chamber 202 or the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 can be absorbed into the dirt collecting box 101 for collection, and then the cleaning robot 2 leaves the integrated station 1 to go to the ground for vacuuming or mopping. When the working time of the cleaning robot 2 on the ground reaches the fifth preset time, the fifth preset time can be set according to the size of the indoor area or the degree of dirtiness, such as setting it to 3-10 minutes, and then the cleaning robot 2 stops working on the ground and returns to the integrated station 1.

[0132] Among them, in step S0201, when the cleaning robot 2 walks to the integrated station 1 and docks, it returns to step S02 or enters step S03; the cleaning robot 2 can continue to execute step S02, repeating the work of the power mechanism 102 to absorb garbage particles and the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109. Of course, when the cleaning robot 2 docks on the integrated station 1, it can first clean the cleaning part 201, and only absorb the sewage in the cleaning area 109 after the cleaning is completed; it can also directly enter step S03, that is, the power mechanism 102 is started only to absorb garbage particles, but not to absorb the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109. At this time, the integrated station 1 is only for the cleaning robot 2 to dock and absorb garbage particles.

[0133] Alternatively, when the cleaning robot 2 walks to the integrated station 1 and docks, it first enters step S0202: the power mechanism 102 starts to absorb the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 into the dirt collecting box 101, that is, to absorb the sewage in the cleaning area 109 into the dirt collecting box 101, and detects the number of times Q that the power mechanism 102 starts to absorb the cleaning liquid after cleaning the cleaning part 201 into the dirt collecting box 101. When Q meets the pre-set threshold value E, it enters step S03; if the set threshold value E is greater than or equal to 1, that is, the power mechanism 102 is first detected to absorb the sewage into the dirt collecting box 101. The number Q is greater than or equal to 1. When the value that meets Q is detected, step S03 is started, that is, it starts to absorb garbage particles into the dirt collecting box 101; mainly, the cleaning part 201 of the cleaning robot 2 needs to be cleaned frequently, and the garbage in the garbage cavity 202 can be cleaned regularly. The frequency of the cleaning part 201 of the cleaning robot 2 by the integrated station 1 must be greater than or equal to the frequency of absorbing garbage particles.

[0134] For example, when mopping the floor, the cleaning part 201 of the cleaning robot 2 needs to frequently travel back and forth to the integrated station 1. At this time, only the cleaning part 201 can be cleaned without sucking out the garbage particles in the garbage chamber 202. After the mopping is completed or a certain number of times is reached, the garbage particles are sucked into the dust box because a certain amount of garbage particles in the garbage chamber 202 has been collected at this time.

[0135] Optionally, in step S0201 or step S0202, when the cleaning robot 2 walks onto the integrated station 1, the cleaning part 201 is located in the cleaning area 109. At this time, the liquid supply mechanism 105 supplies the cleaning liquid in the clean water tank 104, that is, clean water, into the cleaning area 109 to clean the cleaning part 201. After the cleaning of the cleaning part 201 is completed, the cleaning liquid formed in the cleaning area 109 is sewage, and then the power mechanism 102 is started to absorb garbage particles or sewage, or to absorb garbage particles and sewage at the same time, thereby achieving the collection effect of garbage particles and sewage.

[0136] Among them, if in step S0201 or step S0202, there is a certain liquid level height of cleaning liquid in the sewage collecting box 101, that is, there is a certain liquid level height of sewage, then the cleaning part 201 can be cleaned first, and the power mechanism 102 can be directly set to work to absorb the garbage particles in the garbage cavity 202 into the sewage collecting box 101 for collection. Because there is a certain liquid level height of sewage in the sewage collecting box 101, the garbage particles entering the sewage collecting box 101 can be mixed at this time, thereby achieving a filtering effect.

[0137] The other steps of this part are consistent with the control method of the cleaning robot 2 in the first part, that is, the control method of the cleaning robot 2 in the aforementioned step S02 is consistent. The structure of the integrated station 1 or the structural part of the cleaning robot 2 is also consistent with the structural part of the cleaning robot 2 or the integrated station 1 in the first part, and the same advantages can be achieved. The same beneficial technical effects.

[0138] In the control method of the cleaning robot 2 of the two parts of this solution, the cleaning robot 2 is located on the docking integrated station 1. As needed, the garbage collection box 101 can be connected to the cleaning area 109 and the garbage chamber 202 through independent pipes or channels. At this time, the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid enter the garbage collection box 101 through their respective connected pipes or channels. When the power mechanism 102 is started, it can simultaneously absorb the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid. A valve 108 can also be set between the independent pipes or channels connecting the garbage collection box 101 and the cleaning area 109, and between the independent pipes or channels connecting the garbage collection box 101 and the garbage chamber 202. The valve 108 can also be installed on the garbage chamber 202 and set to an openable and closable structure, thereby achieving the goal of independently sucking the garbage particles or independently sucking the cleaning liquid in the cleaning area 109 when the power mechanism 102 is started. Of course, the garbage particles and the cleaning liquid can also be sucked simultaneously, which can be specifically set as needed.

[0139] The valve element 108 may be a solenoid valve, which can control the opening and closing of the solenoid valve.

[0140] Working principle: The control method of the cleaning robot 2 of this scheme, the integrated station 1 is mainly provided with a dirt collecting box 101, a separation box 110, a power mechanism 102, a cleaning area 109, and a clean water tank 104, and the cleaning robot 2 is mainly provided with a garbage chamber 202 and a cleaning part 201. When the cleaning robot 2 is docked on the integrated station 1, the garbage particles in the garbage chamber 202 of the cleaning robot 2 are sucked up, and the garbage particles are separated during the suction process so that the garbage particles with large weight or large volume are collected in the separation box 110, while the garbage particles with small weight or small volume are sucked into the dirt collecting box 101, and the cleaning part 201 is cleaned and the cleaning liquid after cleaning is sucked into the dirt collecting box 101 on the integrated station 1, and further the garbage particles are mixed with the cleaning liquid, thereby solving the problem that the existing base station needs to set up a filtration system or a disposable dust collection bag and needs to set up a filtration system, and the filtration effect of the garbage particles is achieved by mixing the garbage particles with the cleaning liquid, and the effect of mixed collection is achieved.

[0141] Those skilled in the art will understand that the above-mentioned embodiments are specific examples for implementing the present invention, and in actual applications, various changes can be made in form and details without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
