[0035] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] In the description of the embodiments of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the embodiments of the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the embodiments of the present invention. In addition, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0037] The following combination Figures 1-9 The present invention describes a pet cleaning method, control device, and cleaning machine.

[0038] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the pet cleaning method using the cleaning machine provided by the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the pet cleaning method of the cleaning machine provided by the present invention includes:

[0039] Step 100: In response to a cleaning command, obtain the target pet's biological information;

[0040] Step 200: Adjust the cleaning mode of the host unit according to the bio-information. The cleaning mode includes a washing mode and a drying mode.

[0041] Step 300: The cleaning unit cleans the target pet according to the cleaning mode, and the main unit moves with the cleaning unit during the cleaning process.

[0042] Specifically, with the improvement of living standards, pet ownership has gradually become a common phenomenon. The emergence of pet cleaning machines has brought convenience to pet-owning families, allowing users to clean their pets at home and avoid the time-consuming, laborious, and potentially harmful problems associated with traditional pet cleaning methods. However, most existing cleaning machines provide water, cleaning solutions, or other cleaning media to the cleaning unit via the main unit, or provide airflow and suction for drying. Since the cleaning unit is connected to the main unit, pets inevitably become unruly and move around freely during the cleaning process. The main unit is relatively bulky and not easily moved, which greatly reduces the user's cleaning efficiency if the pet is active.

[0043] Furthermore, after receiving a cleaning instruction, the main unit of the present invention acquires the biological information of the target pet and adjusts the cleaning mode of the main unit according to the biological information. The main unit performs cleaning operations on the target pet according to the cleaning mode. During the pet cleaning process, the main unit moves with the cleaning unit, so that the pet can be cleaned conveniently even when it moves around freely, which greatly improves the cleaning efficiency.

[0044] It should be noted that the cleaning unit itself may have some functions so that users can use it independently. In this case, the cleaning unit is not connected to the main unit through pipes or other means.

[0045] In one application scenario, the cleaning unit can provide suction or airflow, allowing users to operate it independently to dry pets, vacuum up hair, and perform other similar tasks. In this case, the cleaning unit and the main unit are set up separately to enable flexible operation.

[0046] In a possible implementation, the main unit is provided with a cleaning tank for cleaning the cleaning unit. For example, when a user uses the cleaning unit to perform cleaning operations, if the target pet is dirty, the cleaning unit needs to be cleaned after partial cleaning before the cleaning operation can continue. The main unit moves accordingly, so that the cleaning unit can be cleaned conveniently when the user needs to clean it.

[0047] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the cleaning tank can also have disinfection, drying and water replenishment functions, which makes it convenient for users to disinfect and dry the cleaning part. When the cleaning part and the main unit are set separately, water, cleaning solution, shower gel or hair conditioner can be replenished at any time.

[0048] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating the pet cleaning method using the cleaning machine provided by the present invention, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the pet cleaning method of the cleaning machine provided by the present invention includes:

[0049] Step 210: Obtain the cleanliness status of the target pet;

[0050] Step 220: The main unit adjusts the cleaning mode according to the cleaning status.

[0051] Specifically, after receiving a cleaning instruction, the system obtains the cleaning status of the target pet, adjusts the cleaning mode according to the cleaning status, and cleans the target pet according to the cleaning mode.

[0052] In a possible implementation, adjusting the cleaning mode solely based on the cleanliness of the target pet may not be very effective for some pets. Therefore, the body shape characteristics of the target pet can also be acquired simultaneously. When the body shape characteristics are larger than the preset body shape, the pet can be divided into zones based on the body shape characteristics. The cleanliness status can be reacquired in each zone, and the cleaning mode can be adjusted according to the cleanliness status. This allows for a more precise cleaning operation on various parts of the target pet's body.

[0053] In a possible implementation, after obtaining the cleanliness status of the target pet, the pet's species information can also be obtained, and the cleaning mode can be adjusted based on the cleanliness status and species information. For example, some pet species are not suitable for drying after washing; after determining the species, the control unit will only execute the washing mode and not the drying mode.

[0054] Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating the pet cleaning method using the cleaning machine provided by the present invention, as shown below. Figure 3 As shown, the pet cleaning method of the cleaning machine provided by the present invention includes:

[0055] Step 230: Make a judgment based on the cleanliness status;

[0056] Step 240: If the cleanliness of the target pet is less than the first cleanliness threshold, the main unit runs the cleaning mode, and the cleaning unit cleans the target pet according to the cleaning mode.

[0057] Step 250: If the target pet's cleanliness is greater than or equal to the first cleanliness threshold, the main unit adjusts the drying mode, and the cleaning unit dries the target pet according to the cleaning mode.

[0058] Specifically, the steps for adjusting the cleaning mode based on the cleaning status in the main unit include: judging the cleaning status; when the cleaning status of the target pet is greater than or equal to the first cleaning threshold, it means that the pet has been cleaned, and then the airflow is provided for drying; when the cleaning status is less than the first cleaning threshold, it means that the target pet has not been cleaned, and then the cleaning mode is continued.

[0059] In one application scenario, the cleaning process generally consists of the following four steps:

[0060] A. Clean water is atomized through the nozzle of the cleaning unit, and the target pet's fur is moistened by water vapor.

[0061] B. After thoroughly wetting all the hair on your body, spray with a scientifically mixed ratio of shower gel and cleansing solution.

[0062] C. Through atomization, water mist is used to rinse away the foam on the pet, achieving a cleaning effect while controlling the amount of water.

[0063] D. After the user roughly wipes the water off the pet with a towel, they can use the brush component to dry the body while grooming the fur.

[0064] Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating the pet cleaning method using the cleaning machine provided by the present invention, as shown below. Figure 4 As shown, the pet cleaning method of the cleaning machine provided by the present invention includes:

[0065] Step 242: Obtain the hair length of the target pet and make a judgment based on the hair length;

[0066] Step 244: If the hair length is less than the first preset length, the main unit provides the cleaning unit with a first volume of clean water and a first volume of cleaning solution within a first preset time period;

[0067] Step 246: If the hair length is greater than the first preset length but less than the second preset length, the main unit provides the cleaning unit with a second volume of clean water and a second volume of cleaning solution within a second preset time period.

[0068] Step 248: If the hair length is greater than the second preset length, the main unit provides the cleaning unit with a third amount of clean water and a third amount of cleaning solution within a third preset time period;

[0069] Specifically, the cleaning department's steps for cleaning the target pet according to the cleaning mode include: obtaining and judging the length of the target pet's fur, dividing the fur length into three intervals; when the fur length is less than the first preset length, it indicates that the target pet's fur is short, such as short-haired cats, hairless cats, and short-haired dogs, which require less water and cleaning solution, and the cleaning time should not be too long. Therefore, within the first preset time, the first amount of water and the first amount of cleaning solution are provided. When the fur length is greater than the first preset length but less than the second preset length, and greater than the second preset length, the cleaning mode duration, as well as the amount of water and cleaning solution, are adjusted accordingly to save water and cleaning solution while ensuring cleaning effect.

[0070] It should be noted that the first volume of clean water is less than the second volume of clean water, the second volume of clean water is less than the third volume of clean water, and the first volume of cleaning solution is less than the second volume of cleaning solution, and the second volume of cleaning solution is less than the third volume of cleaning solution.

[0071] It should also be noted that the first preset duration is shorter than the second preset duration, and the second preset duration is shorter than the third preset duration. Users can adjust these settings according to their actual needs, and this invention does not impose any specific limitations on them.

[0072] Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating the pet cleaning method using the cleaning machine provided by the present invention, as shown below. Figure 5 As shown, the pet cleaning method of the cleaning machine provided by the present invention includes:

[0073] Step 252: Obtain the hair length of the target pet and make a judgment based on the hair length;

[0074] Step 254: If the hair length is less than the first preset length, the main unit provides the first drying air force to the cleaning unit within the fourth preset time period;

[0075] Step 256: If the hair length is greater than the first preset length but less than the second preset length, the main unit provides the cleaning unit with the second drying air force within the fifth preset time period;

[0076] Step 258: If the hair length is greater than the second preset length, the main unit provides the third drying air force to the cleaning unit within the sixth preset time period.

[0077] Specifically, the cleaning department's steps for drying the target pet according to the drying mode include: obtaining and judging the length of the target pet's fur, dividing the fur length into three intervals; when the fur length is less than the first preset length, it means that the target pet's fur is short, such as short-haired cats, hairless cats, short-haired dogs, etc., and the drying air force should be lower and the drying time should not be too long. Therefore, the first drying air force is provided within the fourth preset time. When the fur length is greater than the first preset length but less than the second preset length, and greater than the second preset length, the air force and drying time of the drying mode are adjusted accordingly.

[0078] It should be noted that the first drying air force is less than the second drying air force, the second drying air force is less than the third drying air force, the fourth preset time is less than the fifth preset time, and the fifth preset time is less than the sixth preset time.

[0079] Figure 6 This is a flowchart illustrating the pet cleaning method using the cleaning machine provided by the present invention, as shown below. Figure 6 As shown, the pet cleaning method of the cleaning machine provided by the present invention includes:

[0080] Step 400: During the continuous collection period, acquire the initial location information and real-time location information of the target pet;

[0081] Step 500: Generate the target pet's position offset based on the initial position information and the real-time position information;

[0082] Step 600: If the position offset is greater than the preset offset threshold, control the cleaning department to shut down the cleaning mode.

[0083] Specifically, during the cleaning process of a target pet, it is easy to encounter situations where the pet gets startled and runs away, or is naturally active. Some pets move very fast, making it difficult for people to catch up immediately. Moreover, if the cleaning mode is still on while chasing the pet, it can be quite dangerous. Therefore, during the cleaning process, the system continuously acquires the target pet's real-time and initial location information and determines the location offset. When the location offset exceeds a preset offset threshold, that is, when the pet moves too fast and is difficult to catch up with, the system controls the cleaning unit to shut down the cleaning mode.

[0084] Figure 7 This is a flowchart illustrating the pet cleaning method using the cleaning machine provided by the present invention, as shown below. Figure 7 As shown, the pet cleaning method of the cleaning machine provided by the present invention includes:

[0085] Step 260: Obtain seasonal information for the target pet's preset activity area and make a judgment based on the seasonal information;

[0086] Step 270: Confirm that the seasonal information matches the preset seasonal information, and send a prompt message to remind the user to turn on the hair removal mode;

[0087] Step 280: In response to the activation signal of the hair suction mode, control the main unit to continuously provide suction to the cleaning unit.

[0088] Specifically, pets may shed excessively in certain seasons, such as cats and dogs in spring and autumn. After the main unit adjusts the cleaning unit to run the drying mode, it obtains the target pet's preset activity area, which is the seasonal information of the area where the pet frequently moves. If the seasonal information matches the preset seasonal information, it prompts the user whether to turn on the hair suction mode. After receiving the user's confirmation to turn on the hair suction mode, the main unit continuously provides suction to the cleaning unit to remove loose pet hair.

[0089] In a possible implementation, after the hair suction mode is turned on, the length of the pet's hair is obtained and determined. If the hair is short, a greater suction is provided to suck up loose hair and dander; if the hair is long, a smaller suction is provided.

[0090] Figure 8 This is a flowchart illustrating the pet cleaning method using the cleaning machine provided by the present invention, as shown below. Figure 8 As shown, the pet cleaning method of the cleaning machine provided by the present invention includes:

[0091] Step 310: Obtain the distance between the main unit and the cleaning unit, and make a judgment based on the distance;

[0092] Step 320: If the distance between the main unit and the cleaning unit is greater than the preset distance, reacquire the position information of the cleaning unit;

[0093] Step 330: Based on the interval distance and position information, control the main unit to move so that the interval distance between the main unit and the cleaning unit is less than the preset interval distance.

[0094] Specifically, the steps for controlling the main unit to follow the position of the cleaning unit include: obtaining the distance between the main unit and the cleaning unit; when the distance between the main unit and the cleaning unit is greater than the preset distance, it means that the user has moved the cleaning unit a certain distance and the main unit needs to follow. At this time, the main unit is controlled to move so that the distance between it and the cleaning unit is kept within the preset distance.

[0095] In a possible implementation, the step of controlling the movement of the host unit further includes acquiring environmental feature information within a preset range, and controlling the host unit to avoid obstacles within the preset range during movement based on the environmental feature information, so as to avoid damage to the host unit or restricted movement.
