[0052] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solution of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the specific embodiments of the present application and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0053] With the continuous development of science and technology, more and more cleaning equipment is being used in homes, hotels, offices, large conference rooms and other places to free people's hands. Taking the sweeping and mopping integrated sweeping robot as an example, at present, most of this type of sweeping robots include: a sweeping robot body and a base station, wherein the sweeping robot body is provided with a rag for cleaning the target place, and the base station is provided with a clean water tank for washing the rag and a sewage tank for collecting dirty water after washing the rag. In the process of washing the rag, the relevant technology generally uses cold water to wash the rag. However, when encountering a rag with oily and other substances that are difficult to clean, the cleaning effect of cold water on the rag is limited and it takes a lot of time. In view of this, the embodiment of the present application provides a cleaning method for a cleaning part.

[0054] Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a cleaning method for cleaning a cleaning member provided in an embodiment of the present application. The method is applied to a base station connected to a cleaning device for communication, wherein the cleaning device is provided with a cleaning member for cleaning, the base station is provided with a clean water tank for cleaning the cleaning member, and a heating member for heating water flowing through the clean water tank outlet is provided on the pipe. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0055] Step 101: receiving a cleaning instruction for a cleaning component sent by a cleaning device during execution of a cleaning task.

[0056] The cleaning device may be a floor scrubber, a floor sweeping robot, etc., which are not limited here. Taking the cleaning device as an example, the floor sweeping robot, the cleaning part on the floor sweeping robot may be a rag.

[0057] Step 102: determine the current number of times the cleaning element is cleaned according to the cleaning element cleaning instruction, and obtain the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank.

[0058] Step 103, based on the current number of times the cleaning element is cleaned and the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank, control the water discharge from the clean water tank and turn on or off the heating element so that the clean water flowing through the pipe maintains a target temperature value, and the cleaning element is cleaned by water at the target temperature value.

[0059] The heating element may be an instant heating structure such as an electromagnetic instant heater, a resistive instant heater, or an infrared instant heater.

[0060] For ease of understanding, the following example uses a cleaning device that is a sweeping robot as an example. In actual applications, the user can send a cleaning instruction to the sweeping robot in an application corresponding to the sweeping robot on a terminal device (such as a mobile phone, tablet computer, etc.), for example, to command the sweeping robot to clean an object, bedroom, or other room. After receiving the cleaning instruction, the sweeping robot will leave the base station and go to the designated area such as the object, bedroom, etc. to perform the cleaning task.

[0061] During the cleaning task, if the cleaning device reaches the set cleaning time (such as cleaning for 5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc.), or detects that the cleaning parts are dirty and need to be cleaned, the cleaning parts cleaning instruction is sent to the base station. After receiving the cleaning parts cleaning instruction sent by the cleaning device, the base station determines the current number of cleaning times of the cleaning parts (such as the first cleaning or the fifth cleaning) according to the cleaning parts cleaning instruction, and obtains the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank.

[0062] As an implementation method, if the cleaning element cleaning instruction is the first cleaning element cleaning instruction issued by the cleaning device during the execution of the cleaning task, it is determined that the current number of cleaning times of the cleaning element is zero. Figure 2 As shown, based on the current number of times the cleaning element is cleaned and the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank, the water outflow of the clean water tank is controlled, and the heating element is turned on or off so that the clean water flowing through the pipeline maintains the target temperature value, including:

[0063] Step 201, control the water outflow from the clean water tank, turn off the heating element, and keep the clean water flowing through the pipeline at the actual temperature, and the target temperature is equal to the actual temperature.

[0064] Step 202: Send the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank to the cleaning device.

[0065] In specific implementation, if the cleaning instruction of the cleaning part is the first cleaning instruction issued by the cleaning device during the cleaning task, it can be determined that the cleaning part is being cleaned for the first time. At this time, the cleaning device does not know the temperature of the water in the clean water tank. Therefore, there is no need to turn on the heating element. It is only necessary to keep the heating element closed so that the clean water flowing through the pipe maintains the actual temperature, and the cleaning part can be cleaned with the clean water at the actual temperature. It should be noted that in order to ensure the cleaning effect, the cleaning can be set to a preset number of cyclic cleanings according to the actual situation. For example, the cleaning part can be set to be cyclically cleaned twice during the first cleaning. Furthermore, in order to facilitate the subsequent backwashing of the cleaning parts (backwashing of cleaning parts means that during the execution of the cleaning task, the cleaning parts need to be cleaned again after the first cleaning) or the end of cleaning (the end of cleaning means that the current cleaning task is completed, the cleaning equipment returns to the base station, and the cleaning equipment is finally cleaned), the stains on the cleaning parts can be quickly and cleanly washed away, the cleaning operation can be carried out with clean water at a preset target temperature value (such as 45°C-55°C, specifically, it can be 45°C, 50°C, 55°C, etc.) during the subsequent backwashing or end of cleaning of the cleaning parts. This requires that when the cleaning parts are cleaned for the first time, the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank at this time is sent to the cleaning equipment, so that the subsequent cleaning equipment can issue control instructions (control the switch and working time of the heating element, etc.).

[0066] As another implementation, if the cleaning element cleaning instruction is issued after the cleaning device issues the first cleaning element cleaning instruction during the cleaning task, it is determined that the current number of cleaning times of the cleaning element is at least once. Figure 3 As shown, based on the current number of times the cleaning element is cleaned and the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank, the water outflow of the clean water tank is controlled, and the heating element is turned on or off so that the clean water flowing through the pipeline maintains the target temperature value, including:

[0067] Step 301, obtaining heating parameters of the heating element from the cleaning instruction of the cleaning element, wherein the heating parameters are determined by the cleaning device according to the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank and the target temperature value obtained, and the target temperature is higher than the actual temperature.

[0068] Step 302: Control the water discharge from the clean water tank, and turn on the heating element according to the heating parameters to heat the clean water flowing through the pipeline to a target temperature value.

[0069] In specific implementation, if the cleaning component cleaning instruction is issued after the cleaning device issues the first cleaning component cleaning instruction during the execution of the cleaning task, it is determined that the current number of cleaning times of the cleaning component is at least once, for example, the current number of cleaning times may be the third time, the fourth time, etc. At this time, the cleaning component may be backwashed or may be finished cleaning, but no matter which one it belongs to, a heating component is required to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe according to the heating parameters until it is heated to the target temperature value, wherein the heating parameters are determined by the cleaning device according to the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank and the target temperature value obtained, and sent to the base station along with the cleaning component cleaning instruction. For example, assuming that the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank is 20°C and the target temperature value is 50°C, it can be determined that the heating parameter of the heating component is a heating time of 1 minute. Finally, the cleaning component can be cleaned with water of the target temperature value.

[0070] Based on the above, the cleaning component cleaning method provided in the embodiment of the present application receives the cleaning component cleaning instruction sent by the cleaning equipment during the execution of a cleaning task, determines the current number of times the cleaning component has been cleaned according to the cleaning component cleaning instruction, and obtains the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank, and then based on the current number of times the cleaning component has been cleaned and the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank, controls the water outlet of the clean water tank and turns on or off the heating component, that is, the present application can control whether to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe in combination with the current number of times the cleaning component has been cleaned and the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank, and if the clean water flowing through the pipe is heated, the clean water flowing through the pipe is kept at the target temperature value, and the cleaning component is cleaned with water of the target temperature value, and even if the cleaning component is found to have oil stains or other substances that are difficult to clean, it can be quickly cleaned, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning component and reducing the time spent on cleaning the cleaning component.

[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, when it is determined that the current number of times the cleaning element has been cleaned is at least once, based on the current number of times the cleaning element has been cleaned and the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank, the water discharge from the clean water tank is controlled, and the heating element is turned on or off so that the clean water flowing through the pipeline maintains a target temperature value, including:

[0072] Obtain heating parameters and cleaning times of the heating element from the cleaning element cleaning instruction;

[0073] The water outflow from the clean water tank is controlled, and the heating element is turned on according to the heating parameters to heat the clean water flowing through the pipeline to the target temperature value, so that the cleaning element is cyclically cleaned a number of times by the clean water of the target temperature value.

[0074] During specific implementation, the base station obtains the heating parameters (such as heating for 1 minute) and the number of cleaning times (such as the third cleaning) of the heating element from the cleaning element cleaning instruction sent by the cleaning equipment, and controls the water outlet of the clean water tank according to the cleaning element cleaning instruction. The heating element is turned on according to the heating parameters to heat the clean water flowing through the pipeline to the target temperature value (such as heating to 50°C), and the cleaning element is cyclically cleaned the number of times with clean water of the target temperature value. For example, the cleaning element can be cyclically cleaned 3 times.

[0075] By obtaining the heating parameters and number of cleanings of the heating element from the cleaning instructions of the cleaning element, and controlling the water outlet of the clean water tank, the heating element is turned on according to the heating parameters to heat the clean water flowing through the pipeline to the target temperature value. The cleaning element can be cyclically cleaned a number of times with clean water of the target temperature value, thereby further improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning element.

[0076] The cleaning instructions for the cleaning parts include at least one of the following:

[0077] A first cleaning element cleaning instruction issued by the cleaning device during the execution of a cleaning task to instruct the cleaning element to backwash; wherein backwashing the cleaning element means that during the execution of the cleaning task, the cleaning element needs to be cleaned again after the first cleaning;

[0078] The cleaning device issues a second cleaning instruction when the cleaning task is completed.

[0079] For ease of understanding, the following examples illustrate the cleaning instructions for two cleaning parts:

[0080] Assume that the cleaning device performs the cleaning task in the time period of 5:00-7:00, and the cleaning device sends a cleaning part cleaning instruction for the first cleaning to the base station at 5:20, and returns to the base station to clean the cleaning parts. After the cleaning of the cleaning parts is completed, the cleaning device leaves the base station again to continue to perform the cleaning task (assuming it is 5:40 at this time). When the cleaning device finds that the cleaning parts are dirty at 6:00, it will send a cleaning part cleaning instruction to the base station again (that is, the above-mentioned first cleaning part cleaning instruction, used to instruct the backwashing of the cleaning parts), and return to the base station to clean the cleaning parts. After the cleaning of the cleaning parts is completed, the cleaning device leaves the base station again to continue to perform the cleaning task (assuming it is 6:20 at this time). When the cleaning device completes the cleaning task at 7:00, it will send a second cleaning part cleaning instruction to the base station to indicate the end of the cleaning task and perform the final cleaning of the cleaning parts.

[0081] Furthermore, the number of cleaning times included in the first cleaning element cleaning instruction is less than the number of cleaning times included in the second cleaning element cleaning instruction. In simple terms, the number of cyclic cleaning times when the cleaning element is backwashed is less than the number of cyclic cleaning times when the cleaning task is completed.

[0082] It should be understood that since the cleaning parts need to continue to perform the unfinished cleaning tasks after backwashing, in order to ensure the cleaning effect of the cleaning parts while improving the cleaning efficiency, the number of cycles of backwashing the cleaning parts can be set slightly less, such as 3 times. When the cleaning task of the cleaning device is completed, the cleaning device does not need to leave the base station and use the cleaning parts to perform the cleaning task. Therefore, in order to ensure the cleaning effect of the cleaning parts, the number of cycles of backwashing the cleaning parts can be set more, such as 9 times.

[0083] In accordance with the above, as an implementation method, in the embodiment of the present application, in addition to the clean water tank, the base station is also provided with a sewage tank for collecting dirty water generated after washing the cleaning element; the heating parameters of the heating element include a first heating parameter and a second heating parameter that are executed successively, and the first heating parameter is used to preheat the heating element;

[0084] like Figure 4 As shown, the heating element is turned on according to the heating parameters to heat the clean water flowing through the pipeline to the target temperature value, including:

[0085] Step 401 : When controlling the sewage tank to collect dirty water generated after washing the cleaning element, controlling the heating element to preheat the clean water flowing through the pipeline according to the first heating parameter.

[0086] Step 402: If the sewage tank has finished collecting the dirty water, the heating element is controlled according to the second heating parameter to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe to a target temperature value.

[0087] For ease of understanding, the following will continue to use the cleaning device as an example to illustrate the working process of the cleaning device. In actual applications, the user can send cleaning instructions to the cleaning robot through a terminal device (such as a mobile phone, tablet computer, etc.), for example, commanding the cleaning robot to clean an object, bedroom, etc. After receiving the cleaning instruction, the cleaning robot will leave the base station and go to the designated area such as the object, bedroom, etc. to perform the cleaning task.

[0088] During the cleaning task, if the cleaning device reaches the set cleaning time (such as cleaning for 5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc.), or detects that the cleaning parts are dirty and need to be cleaned, it will send a cleaning part cleaning instruction to the base station and return to the base station to clean the cleaning parts. Specifically, after the cleaning device returns to the base station, the base station will control the water discharge from the clean water tank to clean the cleaning parts. During this process, the heating element is turned on to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe. After the cleaning is completed, the sewage obtained from the cleaning is sucked into the sewage bucket.

[0089] In this embodiment, when the dirty water generated after the cleaning parts are cleaned by the sewage tank, the heating part can be controlled to preheat the clean water flowing through the pipe according to the first heating parameter. When the dirty water is collected by the sewage tank, the heating part can be controlled to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe according to the second heating parameter. In this way, the time for cyclic cleaning of the cleaning parts can be shortened while the cleaning effect of the cleaning parts is guaranteed. It should be understood that the heating part can only perform heating operation during the water discharge process of the clean water tank (assuming that the water in the clean water tank is 20°C at this time, it takes 1 minute to heat the water flowing out of the clean water tank to the target temperature value of 50°C). The present application uses a preheating operation. After the last cleaning, when the sewage tank collects dirty water generated after the cleaning component is cleaned, the heating component can be turned on for preheating (assuming that it can perform 30 seconds of heating work to heat the water flowing out of the clean water tank to 35°C, and the heating time of 30 seconds is the above-mentioned first heating parameter). Then, after the sewage tank finishes collecting the dirty water, it only needs to start the heating component for 20 seconds of heating work to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe to the target temperature of 50°C, wherein the 20 seconds of heating time is the above-mentioned second heating parameter.

[0090] As another implementation, the heating parameter of the heating element includes a first heating parameter and a second heating parameter that are executed successively, the first heating parameter is used to preheat the heating element, and the first heating parameter is determined by the cleaning device according to the difference between the sending time of the cleaning instruction of the cleaning element and the planned return time to the base station;

[0091] like Figure 5 As shown, the heating element is turned on according to the heating parameters to heat the clean water flowing through the pipeline to the target temperature value, including:

[0092] Step 501: Control a heating element to preheat clean water flowing through a pipeline according to a first heating parameter.

[0093] Step 502: If it is detected that the cleaning device returns to the base station, the heating element is controlled to heat the clean water flowing through the pipeline to a target temperature value according to the second heating parameter.

[0094] For ease of understanding, the following will continue to use the cleaning device as an example to illustrate the working process of the cleaning device. In actual applications, the user can send a cleaning instruction to the cleaning robot through a terminal device (such as a mobile phone, tablet computer, etc.), for example, to command the cleaning robot to clean an object, bedroom, etc. After receiving the cleaning instruction, the cleaning robot will leave the base station and go to the designated area such as the object, bedroom, etc. to perform the cleaning task.

[0095] During the cleaning task, if the cleaning device reaches the set cleaning time (such as cleaning for 5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc.), or detects that the cleaning parts are dirty and need to be cleaned, it sends a cleaning part cleaning instruction to the base station and returns to the base station to clean the cleaning parts.

[0096] In this embodiment, when the cleaning device leaves the base station to perform a cleaning task, it will determine the temperature based on the difference between the time when the cleaning instruction of the cleaning component is sent and the time when it is planned to return to the base station. For example, assuming that the time when the cleaning instruction of the cleaning component is sent is 5:00, and the time when it is planned to return to the base station is 5:03, then the cleaning device will determine the first heating parameter based on the difference of 3 minutes between the two. Assume that the first heating parameter at this time is: start heating the component for 3 minutes. Then, starting from 5:00 when the cleaning instruction of the self-cleaning component is sent, the base station will control the heating component to preheat the clean water flowing through the pipe according to the first heating parameter, that is, preheat the clean water for 3 minutes. If it is detected that the cleaning device returns to the base station, the heating component is controlled to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe to the target temperature value according to the second heating parameter. In this way, the time for cyclic cleaning of the cleaning component can be shortened while ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning component. The specific principle for achieving this effect is as follows. Figure 4 The embodiments shown are the same and will not be described again here.

[0097] It should be noted that after multiple tests and demonstrations, the above-mentioned preheating and heating operations can be performed during the backwashing stage of the cleaning parts. After the cleaning task of the cleaning equipment is completed, during the cleaning process of the cleaning parts, it is only necessary to turn on the heating parts for heating operations without preheating operations. In this way, the cleaning effect of the cleaning parts can be guaranteed while reducing the cleaning time and improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0098] The following provides specific scenario embodiments to illustrate the present application.

[0099] Scenario Example 1:

[0100] Assume that the cleaning device is a sweeping robot, which is communicatively connected to a base station, wherein the sweeping robot is provided with a rag for cleaning, the base station is provided with a clean water tank for washing the rag and a dirty water tank for collecting dirty water generated after washing the cleaning parts, and a heating element for heating the water flowing through the pipe is provided on the pipe at the outlet of the clean water tank.

[0101] The user sends cleaning instructions to the sweeping robot through the application bound to the sweeping robot on the mobile phone, instructing the sweeping robot to clean the object, bedroom and other rooms. After receiving the cleaning instruction, the sweeping robot leaves the base station and goes to the designated area such as the object and bedroom to perform the cleaning task.

[0102] When the robot vacuum cleaner detects that the rag is dirty during the cleaning task, it sends a rag cleaning instruction to the base station. After receiving the rag cleaning instruction, the base station determines whether the rag is being cleaned for the first time. If it is determined that the rag is being cleaned for the first time, it controls the water discharge from the clean water tank to cycle the rag and sends the temperature of the water in the clean water tank (assuming it is 20°C) to the robot vacuum cleaner.

[0103] If it is determined that the rag is not being washed for the first time, the sweeping robot sends a first cleaning component cleaning instruction to the base station according to the temperature of the water in the clean water tank and the target temperature value (assuming it is 50°C), and returns to the base station to perform a backwash operation. Specifically, after the sweeping robot returns to the base station, the base station will control the water discharge from the clean water tank to wash the rag. During this process, the heating component is turned on to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe. After the cleaning is completed, the sewage obtained from the cleaning is sucked into the sewage bucket.

[0104] When controlling the sewage tank to collect dirty water generated after washing the rag, the heating element can be controlled to preheat the clean water flowing through the pipe according to the first heating parameter. When the sewage tank finishes collecting the dirty water, the heating element can be controlled to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe according to the second heating parameter. Specifically, after the last cleaning, when the sewage tank collects dirty water generated after washing the rag, the heating element is turned on for preheating (assuming that it can perform 30 seconds of heating work to heat the water flowing out of the clean water tank to 35°C, and the heating time of 30 seconds is the above-mentioned first heating parameter). Then, after the sewage tank finishes collecting the dirty water, it only needs to start the heating element for 20 seconds of heating work to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe to the target temperature of 50°C, wherein the 20 seconds of heating time is the above-mentioned second heating parameter. Then, the rag is cleaned with clean water at the target temperature of 50°C.

[0105] After this cleaning is completed, the sweeping robot leaves the base station again to perform the cleaning task. After backwashing the rag three times, it determines whether to continue backwashing the rag. If not, the sweeping robot sends a second cleaning component cleaning instruction to the base station, and returns to the base station to perform the task and end the cleaning operation. After receiving the second cleaning component cleaning instruction, the base station starts the heating component to perform heating work for 30 seconds according to the second cleaning component cleaning instruction, heats the clean water flowing through the pipe to the target temperature of 50°C, and then uses the clean water with the target temperature value of 50°C to clean the rag.

[0106] Scenario Example 2:

[0107] Assume that the cleaning device is a sweeping robot, which is communicatively connected to a base station, wherein the sweeping robot is provided with a rag for cleaning, the base station is provided with a clean water tank for washing the rag and a dirty water tank for collecting dirty water generated after washing the cleaning parts, and a heating element for heating the water flowing through the pipe is provided on the pipe at the outlet of the clean water tank.

[0108] The user sends cleaning instructions to the sweeping robot through the application bound to the sweeping robot on the mobile phone, instructing the sweeping robot to clean the object, bedroom and other rooms. After receiving the cleaning instruction, the sweeping robot leaves the base station and goes to the designated area such as the object and bedroom to perform the cleaning task.

[0109] When the robot vacuum cleaner detects that the rag is dirty during the cleaning task, it sends a rag cleaning instruction to the base station. After receiving the rag cleaning instruction, the base station determines whether the rag is being cleaned for the first time. If it is determined that the rag is being cleaned for the first time, it controls the water discharge from the clean water tank to cycle the rag and sends the temperature of the water in the clean water tank (assuming it is 20°C) to the robot vacuum cleaner.

[0110] If it is determined that the rag is not being washed for the first time, the sweeping robot sends a first cleaning component cleaning instruction to the base station according to the temperature of the water in the clean water tank and the target temperature value (assuming it is 50°C), and returns to the base station to perform a backwash operation. Specifically, after the sweeping robot returns to the base station, the base station will control the water discharge from the clean water tank to wash the rag. During this process, the heating component is turned on to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe. After the cleaning is completed, the sewage obtained from the cleaning is sucked into the sewage bucket.

[0111] When the sweeping robot leaves the base station to perform cleaning tasks, it will determine the temperature based on the difference between the sending time of the rag cleaning instruction and the planned return time to the base station. For example, assuming that the sending time of the rag cleaning instruction is 5:00 and the planned return time to the base station is 5:03, then the sweeping robot will determine the first heating parameter based on the difference of 3 minutes between the two. Assume that the first heating parameter at this time is: start heating the element for 3 minutes. Then, starting from 5:00 when the rag cleaning instruction is sent, the base station will control the heating element to preheat the clean water flowing through the pipe according to the first heating parameter, that is, preheat the clean water for 3 minutes. If it is detected that the sweeping robot returns to the base station, the heating element is controlled according to the second heating parameter to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe to the target temperature value of 50°C, and then the rag is cleaned with clean water at the target temperature value of 50°C.

[0112] After this cleaning is completed, the sweeping robot leaves the base station again to perform the cleaning task. After backwashing the rag three times, it determines whether to continue backwashing the rag. If not, the sweeping robot sends a second cleaning component cleaning instruction to the base station, and returns to the base station to perform the task and end the cleaning operation. After receiving the second cleaning component cleaning instruction, the base station starts the heating component to perform heating work for 30 seconds according to the second cleaning component cleaning instruction, heats the clean water flowing through the pipe to the target temperature of 50°C, and then uses the clean water with the target temperature value of 50°C to clean the rag. To summarize, the present application receives a cleaning instruction for a cleaning component sent by a cleaning device during the execution of a cleaning task, determines the current number of times the cleaning component has been cleaned according to the cleaning instruction, and obtains the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank. Based on the current number of times the cleaning component has been cleaned and the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank, the water outlet of the clean water tank can be controlled and the heating component can be turned on or off. That is, the present application can control whether to heat the clean water flowing through the pipe in combination with the current number of times the cleaning component has been cleaned and the actual temperature of the water in the clean water tank. If the clean water flowing through the pipe is heated, the clean water flowing through the pipe is kept at a target temperature value. The cleaning component is cleaned with water at the target temperature value. Even if a cleaning component with oil or other substances that are difficult to clean is encountered, it can be cleaned quickly, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning component and reducing the time spent on cleaning the cleaning component.

[0113] In addition, the present application can shorten the time of cyclic cleaning of cleaning parts while ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning parts. Moreover, by controlling the heating time of the heating parts by the cleaning device sending heating and preheating instructions according to the set interactive protocol with the base station, overheating and poor heating effect can be avoided, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning parts. Furthermore, under the specified number of cyclic cleaning times, the switching time of the heating parts during the cleaning process can be flexibly controlled to increase or decrease, so as to deeply clean the cleaning parts and significantly improve the cleaning effect of the cleaning parts.
