[0031] S26. Repeat steps S22 - S25 until the wall surface in the cleaning area is cleaned.
[0032] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0033] 1. In the glass curtain wall cleaning system and cleaning method of the present invention, by setting the motion module and the box body, the motion module is attached to the wall surface, and the cleaning module in the box body faces the wall surface for cleaning the stains on the wall surface. The information of the cleaning area is obtained through the signal acquisition module and the processing module. When there are no stains, the control module drives the motion module to move on the wall surface, and then the next cleaning area is cleaned by the cleaning module. Through the combination of multiple modules, the automatic cleaning of the wall surface can be realized. Therefore, the present invention can achieve automatic cleaning and is safe and reliable.
[0034] 2. In a glass curtain wall cleaning system and cleaning method of the present invention, during cleaning, the air pump sucks air, the suction cups are adsorbed on the wall surface, the motion module and the box body are relatively fixed. When the cleaning is completed, the air pumps on the four circular suction cups first deflate, causing the four circular suction cups to disengage from the wall surface. Then, the power module controls the rotation of the three long shafts, causing the two triangular discs to rotate around the long shafts, and the four circular suction cups rotate synchronously. When the four circular suction cups come into contact with the wall surface, the air pump is controlled to suck air, and the four circular suction cups are fixed. Then, the air pump on the fixed suction cup is controlled to deflate, and the fixed suction cup disengages from the wall surface. The control module continues to control the rotation of the long shafts, and the box body and the connecting rod rotate around the rotating shaft, and the fixed suction cup rotates upward synchronously. When the fixed suction cup comes into contact with the wall surface, the air pump sucks air, and the fixed suction cup is fixed on the wall surface. By adopting the suction cup method, when the suction cup is under negative pressure, it can be adsorbed on the wall surface. By alternately contacting and sucking and deflating the wall surface with the circular suction cups and the fixed suction cups, the box body and its internal structure can be stably climbed on the wall surface. Therefore, the structure of the present invention is simple and the movement process is stable.
[0035] 3. In a glass curtain wall cleaning system and cleaning method of the present invention, by adopting a sliding seat and a connecting shaft, the sliding seat can slide back and forth on the wall brush holder, and the upper wall brush and the lower wall brush can slide back and forth on the connecting shaft; by the connection method of a sprocket and a chain, the chain rotates clockwise, and the brush rod connected to the chain moves synchronously, causing the upper wall brush to compress and the lower wall brush to stretch. When the brush rod moves to the corner of the chain, at this time, the brush rod moves to the uppermost position of the connecting shaft. When the chain continues to move, it will drive the brush rod to move to the right, causing the sliding rod, the upper wall brush, and the lower wall brush to move to the right synchronously, and the lower wall brush cleans the wall surface. After the brush rod moves to the rightmost side, it moves downward under the drive of the chain, causing the upper wall brush to stretch and the lower wall brush to compress. After the chain rotates one week, the sliding rod slides left and right once, and the upper wall brush and the lower wall brush respectively clean the wall surface. After the chain rotates multiple times, the upper wall brush and the lower wall brush clean the wall surface multiple times. By providing water through a water storage device, the stains on the wall surface can be removed. Therefore, the cleaning effect of the present invention is good and the cleaning process is stable.
[0036] 4. In a glass curtain wall cleaning system and cleaning method of the present invention, the connecting shaft can rotate on the sliding rod, enabling the upper wall brush and the lower wall brush to rotate before moving. They rotate once for each cleaning, turning out the areas where the upper wall brush and the lower wall brush are not working, which is convenient for the next cleaning and can avoid the subsequent cleaning effect from deteriorating due to stains adhering to the cleaned parts after multiple cleanings of the upper wall brush and the lower wall brush; by providing a cleaning water tank, the upper wall brush and the lower wall brush are covered with clean water when they roll, and at the same time, when the upper wall brush and the lower wall brush compress, the sewage in them can also be drained into the cleaning water tank; by providing a water inlet and a sewage outlet, clean water can be continuously provided and the used sewage can be discharged. Therefore, the cleaning effect of the present invention is good and the cleaning process is stable.
[0037] 5. In a glass curtain wall cleaning system and cleaning method of the present invention, by setting a laser head, the laser head can remove stains through laser, effectively removing stubborn stains with good cleaning effect. The laser head can slide up and down through a slide bar, and at the same time, the laser head can slide left and right on the slide bar, enabling the laser head to move in all directions. Therefore, the cleaning effect of the present invention is good.
[0038] 6. In a glass curtain wall cleaning system and cleaning method of the present invention, first, the cleaning module is used to clean the area to be cleaned. At the same time, the signal acquisition module and the processing module collect information and feedback it to the control module, which can monitor the cleaning effect in real time, avoid waste caused by multiple cleanings. The cleaning module and the motion module work alternately, and the cleaning process is stable and controllable with good cleaning effect. Therefore, the cleaning effect of the present invention is good. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

At the same time, the lower wall brush 15 cleans the wall surface 1 upward. Driven by the chain 16, the brush rod 14 continues to move to the right, driving the sliding seat 11 to move to the right in the wall brush holder 10, and the lower wall brush 15 cleans the wall surface 1 to the right. When the brush rod 14 moves to the second corner of the chain 16, the sliding seat 11 stops sliding. At this time, the brush rod 14 moves downward, the upper wall brush 13 stretches, and the lower wall brush 15 compresses. The stains on the lower wall brush 15 are squeezed into the cleaning water tank 21, and the sewage flows out of the sewage outlet 20 along with the flowing water in the tank. After the brush rod 14 moves to the third corner of the chain 16, it drives the sliding seat 11 to move to the left in the wall brush holder 10, and the upper wall brush 13 cleans the wall surface 1 to the left. When the brush rod 14 moves to the fourth corner of the chain 16, the sliding seat 11 stops sliding, and the brush rod 14 continues to move upward. When it moves to the middle position of the connecting shaft 12, the rotating motor stops working, and the servo motor works to make the connecting shaft 12, the upper wall brush 13, and the lower wall brush 15 rotate 90 degrees again. Then the rotating motor continues to work, and the wall surface 1 is cleaned according to the previous steps. After the cleaning is completed, the electronic eye 25 collects the image information of the cleaning area. After being processed by the signal processing module, the stain information is sent to the control module. If there are still stains, the control module controls the cylinder to work, so that the laser head 24 moves to the stain, and the laser head 24 cleans the stain by laser.
[0082] After the cleaning is completed, the control module controls the air pump on the four circular suction cups 2 to deflate first, and the four circular suction cups 2 are separated from the wall surface 1. Then the drive motor controls the three long shafts 9 to rotate, so that the two triangular pulley discs 6 rotate counterclockwise 180 degrees around the long shafts 9, and the four circular suction cups 2 rotate synchronously and contact the wall surface 1. At this time, the air pump sucks air and the four circular suction cups 2 are fixed. The control module then controls the air pump on the fixed suction cup 3 to deflate, and the fixed suction cup 3 is separated from the wall surface 1. The control module continues to control the long shaft 9 to rotate, so that the connecting rod 8 and the long shaft 9 rotate counterclockwise 180 degrees around the triangular pulley disc 6, and the fixed suction cup 3 and the box body 5 rotate upward synchronously. The fixed suction cup 3 contacts the wall surface 1. At this time, the air pump sucks air and the fixed suction cup 3 is fixed on the wall surface 1. Then the cleaning module performs the cleaning work. After the cleaning module and the motion module work reciprocally, the entire wall surface 1 is cleaned. The control module controls the air pump to deflate and removes the device.
