[0029] It should be noted that the flushing mechanism includes a water storage tank, a booster pump and a water supply pipeline; the air supply mechanism includes a dryer and an air supply pipeline; and the siphon mechanism includes a dirt storage tank, a vacuum pump and a dirt suction pipe.

[0030] Specifically, when the cleaning controller detects the presence of urine in the urinal, it controls the booster water pump to start at a first preset time, so that the booster water pump transfers the water in the water storage tank to the urinal through the water pipe; controls the vacuum pump to start at a second preset time, so that the vacuum pump evacuates the air in the sewage and sucks the urine in the urinal into the sewage storage tank; controls the dryer to start at a third preset time, so that the dryer sends warm air to the urinal through the air supply pipe, wherein the first preset time is less than the second preset time, and the second preset time is less than the third preset time.

[0031] A urinal cleaning control method is provided in an embodiment of the present application. The cleaning controller obtains a first sensor signal sent by a urine detection sensor disposed at the bottom of the urinal; and based on the sensor signal, controls the operation of a flushing mechanism, an air supply mechanism, and a siphon mechanism in sequence according to a first preset program. Through this method, automatic cleaning and drying of the urinal can be achieved, which greatly improves the comfort of the patient and saves manpower and material resources.

[0032] See also Figure 4 , a urine cleaning button is provided on the cleaning control box, and the method further comprises the following steps:

[0033] S3, in response to the urine cleaning button being triggered, obtaining a toilet bowl cleaning indication signal;

[0034] It should be noted that the urine cleaning button types include flush buttons, drying buttons and siphon buttons; when the flush button is pressed by the user, the cleaning control box responds to the flush button being triggered and obtains a flush indication signal; when the drying button is pressed by the user, the cleaning controller responds to the drying button being triggered and obtains an air supply indication signal; when the drying button is pressed by the user, the cleaning control box responds to the drying button being triggered and obtains an air supply indication signal.

[0035] S4. Based on the toilet cleaning signal, the flushing mechanism, the air supply mechanism and the siphon mechanism are controlled to operate according to a second preset program.

[0036] The cleaning controller calls a mechanism corresponding to the type of urine cleaning button to clean the urinal according to the type of urine cleaning button that is triggered.

[0037] In the above cleaning method, the cleaning controller obtains a toilet cleaning indication signal in response to the urine cleaning button being triggered, and controls the operation of the flushing mechanism, the air supply mechanism and the siphon mechanism according to a second preset program based on the toilet cleaning signal. Therefore, the operation of each mechanism can also be manually controlled in the urinal cleaning control system to prevent the urinal from being unable to be automatically cleaned when the urine detection sensor fails.

[0038] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
