[0014] In the above embodiment, the controller adjusts the operating parameters of the power module based on the target dirty position with the highest dirt level so that the spraying range of the spray module covers the target dirty position, that is, the spray module can focus on spraying and cleaning the position with a higher degree of dirt, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device.

[0031] Figure 1 1 is a schematic diagram of a cooking device provided by an example of the present application, and the cooking device includes but is not limited to a steam oven, an oven or a steamer. Figure 1 As shown, the cooking device 100 includes a housing 101, a cleaning device 102 and a controller. Each part will be introduced one by one below.

[0032] The box body 101 is provided with a cavity 103 for placing dishes to be cooked.

[0033] The cleaning device 102 is disposed in the housing 101 and includes a spraying module 104 and a power module 105. The spraying module 104 is disposed in the housing 101 and is used to receive the cleaning liquid delivered by the power module 105 and spray the cleaning liquid into the cavity 103 of the housing 101.

[0034] The power module 105 is disposed in the box body 101. In order to achieve the purpose of the power module 105 to transport the cleaning liquid, the power module 105 can be used as shown in FIG. Figure 2As shown, the power module 105 includes a cleaning liquid pipeline 201 and a cleaning liquid pump 202. Among them, one end of the cleaning liquid pipeline 201 is connected to the spray module 104, and the other end is connected to a cleaning liquid box for storing cleaning liquid. The cleaning liquid pump 202 is arranged in the cleaning liquid pipeline 201, so that the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid box can be transported to the spray module 104 via the cleaning liquid pipeline 201 under the drive of the cleaning liquid pump 202. In addition, the cleaning liquid pump 202 can adopt a fluid conveying power device such as a positive displacement pump, an impeller pump or a jet pump, which is not limited here.

[0035] The controller is disposed in the housing 101 and is electrically connected to the power module 105. The controller is also configured to perform the following steps:

[0036] Determining a corresponding target cleaning mode according to the received cleaning instruction;

[0037] The operating parameters of the power module are adjusted based on the target cleaning mode.

[0038] The target cleaning mode is a cleaning mode for cleaning the pollutants remaining in the cavity of the box.

[0039] In the above process, the method of determining the corresponding target cleaning mode according to the received cleaning instruction can be achieved by pre-establishing an association relationship between different cleaning instructions and different cleaning modes, so that after receiving the cleaning instruction, the cleaning mode corresponding to the cleaning instruction is determined according to the association relationship, and the determined cleaning mode is used as the target cleaning mode.

[0040] The way in which the controller receives cleaning instructions can be flexibly set as needed. In one example, a touch panel electrically connected to the controller can be set on the housing of the cooking device, wherein the touch panel is used to generate corresponding cleaning instructions under the user's trigger operation, so that the controller can receive different cleaning instructions based on the electrical connection between the touch panel and the controller.

[0041] In another example, a contaminant identification module electrically connected to the controller can be provided in the housing of the cooking device, wherein the contaminant identification module is used to identify the type of dirt of the contaminant and generate corresponding cleaning instructions according to the type of dirt, so that the controller can receive different cleaning instructions based on the electrical connection between the contaminant identification module and the controller.

[0042] In another example, the controller may also obtain the current cooking dish information of the cooking equipment before determining the corresponding target cleaning mode according to the received cleaning instructions, and match the corresponding cleaning instructions according to the cooking dish information. That is to say, the controller pre-stores cleaning instructions corresponding to different cooking dish information, so as to clean the cavity of the cooking equipment box according to the cleaning instructions matched by the cooking dish information, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the contaminants expected to remain according to the cooking dish information.

[0043] Taking into account that after the cooking equipment cooks different dishes, the degree of dirtiness and coverage area of ​​the residual contaminants in the cavity of the cooking equipment box are also different, in an embodiment of the present application, after the controller determines the corresponding target cleaning mode, it can adjust the operating parameters of the power module based on the target cleaning mode to adjust the spraying range of the cleaning liquid sprayed by the spray module.

[0044] In order to adjust the operating parameters of the power module so that the spraying range of the cleaning liquid sprayed by the spray module changes, on the one hand, the cleaning liquid flow rate parameters in the operating parameters can be adjusted to change the flow rate of the cleaning liquid delivered by the power module, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the spraying range of the cleaning liquid sprayed by the spray module; on the other hand, the cleaning liquid flow rate parameters in the operating parameters can be adjusted to change the flow rate of the cleaning liquid delivered by the power module, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the spraying range of the cleaning liquid sprayed by the spray module.

[0045] Specifically, the method of adjusting the cleaning liquid flow parameter and / or the cleaning liquid flow rate parameter in the operating parameters can be flexibly set as needed. In one example, the controller can be electrically connected to the cleaning liquid pump, and the controller can control the cleaning liquid flow and / or the cleaning liquid flow rate by adjusting the operating power of the cleaning liquid pump.

[0046] In another example, see Figure 3 As shown, the power module 105 includes a solenoid valve 301 disposed in the cleaning liquid pipeline 201 , and the solenoid valve 301 is electrically connected to the controller. The controller can control the cleaning liquid flow rate and / or the cleaning liquid flow rate by adjusting the valve opening of the solenoid valve 301 .

[0047] Through the above-mentioned embodiment, the controller determines the corresponding target cleaning mode according to the received cleaning instructions. Since the cleaning instructions corresponding to the determined target cleaning mode are generated by the user's own selection or automatically generated for the pollutants, that is to say, the target cleaning mode is the optimal cleaning mode for cleaning the pollutants remaining in the cavity of the current box. Therefore, when the target cleaning mode is used to clean the cavity of the cooking device box, that is, when the operating parameters of the power module are adjusted based on the target cleaning mode, the spraying range of the cleaning liquid sprayed by the spray module is adjusted, which can achieve the purpose of reducing the consumption of resources and energy while ensuring the cleaning effect, thereby improving the user's satisfaction with the use of the cooking equipment.

[0048] In another exemplary embodiment, the cooking device further comprises a turbidity monitoring device disposed in the box. The turbidity monitoring device is used to identify the overall dirtiness in the cavity, and the turbidity monitoring device is electrically connected to the controller. The turbidity monitoring device may be a turbidity sensor or a camera module.

[0049] In addition, in the process of adjusting the operating parameters of the power module based on the target cleaning mode, the controller is further configured to perform the following steps:

[0050] In response to a first execution instruction of the target cleaning mode, obtaining an overall dirtiness in the cavity;

[0051] The operating parameters of the power module are adjusted according to the overall dirtiness.

[0052] In the above process, the controller obtains the overall dirtiness of the cavity in response to the first execution instruction of the target cleaning mode, wherein the overall dirtiness represents the dirtiness of the cavity after being contaminated by the pollutants. In addition, the overall dirtiness of the cavity can be obtained by controlling the turbidity monitoring device to monitor the turbidity monitoring device based on the electrical connection between the turbidity monitoring device and the controller, so as to determine the overall dirtiness of the cavity according to the monitored dirtiness.

[0053] In the implementation of the present application, after the controller obtains the overall dirtiness in the cavity, it can adjust the operating parameters of the power module according to the overall dirtiness, that is, the operating parameters of the power module can be adjusted following the change of the overall dirtiness in the cavity, so that the cleaning liquid can make the spraying range of the spray module match the overall dirtiness in the current cavity under the delivery of the power module. For example, the higher the overall dirtiness in the cavity, the larger the spraying range of the spray module after the operating parameters of the power module are adjusted; correspondingly, the lower the overall dirtiness in the cavity, the smaller the spraying range of the spray module after the operating parameters of the power module are adjusted, thereby further reducing the consumption of resources and energy while ensuring the cleaning effect.

[0054] Among them, the method of adjusting the operating parameters of the power module according to the overall dirtiness can also be flexibly set as needed. In one example, in the process of adjusting the operating parameters of the power module according to the overall dirtiness, the controller can first determine whether the overall dirtiness exceeds the preset overall dirtiness threshold. If the overall dirtiness exceeds the preset overall dirtiness threshold, it indicates that the degree of dirtiness of the current cavity contaminated by pollutants is high, and the first adjustment strategy is adopted to adjust the operating parameters of the power module. In other words, the first adjustment strategy is an adjustment strategy adopted when the overall dirtiness in the cavity is high, so as to obtain a better cleaning effect. The specific implementation of the first adjustment strategy includes controlling the operating voltage of the cleaning liquid pump to increase the operating power of the cleaning liquid pump and / or controlling the valve opening of the solenoid valve to increase the flow rate of the cleaning liquid and / or the flow rate of the cleaning liquid, so as to expand the spraying range of the spraying device, thereby obtaining a better cleaning effect.

[0055] In another example, if the controller determines that the overall dirtiness exceeds a preset overall dirtiness threshold, a first adjustment strategy is used to adjust the operating parameters of the power module and start timing. When the timing reaches the first duration threshold, a second adjustment strategy is used to adjust the operating parameters of the power module.

[0056] Among them, the power module under the second adjustment strategy makes the spraying range of the spray module smaller than the spraying range of the spray module under the first adjustment strategy. That is to say, when the current cavity is contaminated by pollutants and the degree of dirtiness is high, the controller can first use the first adjustment strategy to adjust the operating parameters of the power module to expand the spraying range of the spray module and improve the cleaning effect of the cleaning device. After executing the time corresponding to the first time threshold, the operating parameters of the power module are adjusted to the operating parameters corresponding to the second adjustment strategy. Since the cavity of the cooking device box has been preliminarily cleaned by the cleaning device under the first adjustment strategy, that is, the degree of dirtiness of the cavity of the cooking device box has decreased, the spraying range of the spray module is reduced to continuously clean the cavity, ensure that the pollutants in the cavity of the cooking device box are cleaned, and further reduce the consumption of resources and energy.

[0057] In addition, the specific implementation of the second adjustment strategy includes controlling the operating voltage of the cleaning liquid pump to reduce the operating power of the cleaning liquid pump and / or controlling the valve opening of the solenoid valve to reduce the flow rate of the cleaning liquid and / or the flow rate of the cleaning liquid, thereby reducing the spraying range of the spraying device, thereby reducing the consumption of the cleaning liquid and reducing energy loss.

[0058] Correspondingly, in the process of adjusting the operating parameters of the power module according to the overall dirtiness, if the controller determines that the overall dirtiness does not exceed the preset overall dirtiness threshold, it indicates that the degree of contamination by pollutants in the current cavity is low. In one example, the second adjustment strategy can be directly used to adjust the operating parameters of the power module to reduce the consumption of resources and energy.

[0059] In another example, if the controller determines that the overall dirtiness does not exceed the preset overall dirtiness threshold, it adopts the first adjustment strategy to adjust the operating parameters of the power module and starts timing. When the timing reaches the second time threshold, the second adjustment strategy is adopted to adjust the operating parameters of the power module.

[0060] The second duration threshold is smaller than the first duration threshold, and both the first duration threshold and the second duration threshold can be flexibly set according to actual needs, and are not limited here.

[0061] In the above example, when the controller determines that the overall dirtiness does not exceed the preset overall dirtiness threshold, the controller can first adopt the first adjustment strategy to adjust the operating parameters of the power module, so that the spray module performs preliminary cleaning of the cavity of the cooking device box with a larger spray range, and then adopt the second adjustment strategy to adjust the operating parameters of the power module, so that the spray module performs subsequent cleaning of the cavity of the cooking device box with a smaller spray range, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device while reducing the consumption of resources and energy.

[0062] In another exemplary embodiment, the turbidity monitoring device in the box is also used to identify the local dirtiness corresponding to different positions in the cavity. In addition, in the process of adjusting the operating parameters of the power module based on the target cleaning mode, the controller is also configured to perform the following steps:

[0063] In response to a second execution instruction of the target cleaning mode, obtaining local dirtiness at different positions in the cavity;

[0064] The operating parameters of the power module are adjusted according to the local dirtiness corresponding to different positions in the cavity.

[0065] In the above process, the controller obtains the local dirtiness of different positions in the cavity in response to the second execution instruction of the target cleaning mode, wherein the local dirtiness represents the degree of dirtiness of a single position in the cavity after being contaminated by pollutants. The method of obtaining the local dirtiness of different positions in the cavity can also be obtained based on the electrical connection between the turbidity monitoring device and the controller. Specifically, the controller controls the turbidity monitoring device to implement point-to-point monitoring, so as to determine the local dirtiness corresponding to different positions in the cavity according to the dirtiness degree monitored at the point.

[0066] In addition, the second execution instruction may be executed as a single execution instruction of a cleaning mode, or may be combined with the first execution instruction into a cleaning mode and executed according to a preset sequence.

[0067] In an embodiment of the present application, after the controller obtains the local dirtiness of different positions in the cavity, it can adjust the operating parameters of the power module according to the local dirtiness corresponding to different positions in the cavity, so that the spraying range of the spray module can be adjusted according to the local dirtiness corresponding to different positions in the cavity, thereby improving the cleaning ability of the cleaning device.

[0068] Among them, the method of adjusting the operating parameters of the power module according to the local dirtiness corresponding to different positions in the cavity can be flexibly set according to actual needs. In one example, the controller can sort the positions in the cavity according to the local dirtiness corresponding to different positions, determine the position with the highest local dirtiness in the cavity, and then adjust the operating parameters of the power module based on the position with the highest local dirtiness, so that the spraying module focuses on spraying the position with the highest local dirtiness in the cavity.

[0069] In another example, the controller can arrange different positions in the cavity from high to low according to their corresponding local dirtiness, and adjust the operating parameters of the power module in sequence based on the positions corresponding to the arrangement order, so that the spraying module sprays different positions in the cavity in sequence, and gives priority to spraying the positions with the highest local dirtiness to obtain better cleaning effects.

[0070] In another exemplary embodiment, in the process of adjusting the operating parameters of the power module according to the local dirtiness at different positions in the cavity, the controller is further configured to perform the following steps:

[0071] Determine the dirtiness level corresponding to each position according to the local dirtiness of different positions in the cavity;

[0072] Determine the highest dirtiness level from the dirtiness levels corresponding to the different positions, and use the position corresponding to the highest dirtiness level as the target dirtiness position;

[0073] An operating parameter of the power module is adjusted based on the target contamination location.

[0074] In the above process, after the controller obtains the local dirtiness corresponding to different positions in the cavity, it can determine the dirtiness level corresponding to each position according to the local dirtiness of different positions in the cavity. The dirtiness level represents the dirtiness of the current position. The higher the dirtiness level, the higher the dirtiness of the position.

[0075] The method of determining the dirtiness level corresponding to each position according to the local dirtiness of different positions in the cavity can be flexibly set as needed. In one example, the controller can determine the dirtiness interval corresponding to the local dirtiness of different positions, and use the dirtiness level corresponding to the dirtiness interval of each position as the dirtiness level corresponding to each position. That is to say, multiple dirtiness intervals are preset in the controller, and each dirtiness interval is set with a corresponding dirtiness level.

[0076] For example, the dirtiness interval corresponding to grade A is 60 degrees of dirtiness-100 degrees of dirtiness, the dirtiness interval corresponding to grade B is 30 degrees of dirtiness-59 degrees of dirtiness, and the dirtiness interval corresponding to grade C is 1 degree of dirtiness-29 degrees of dirtiness. If the controller obtains the local dirtiness of three positions, namely position a with a dirtiness of 89, position b with a dirtiness of 58, and position c with a dirtiness of 20, then the dirtiness level corresponding to the dirtiness interval where position a is located is grade A, the dirtiness level corresponding to the dirtiness interval where position b is located is grade B, and the dirtiness level corresponding to the dirtiness interval where position c is located is grade C. Among them, the position with the highest dirtiness level is position a, followed by position b, and finally position c.

[0077] In another example, after the cooking device has cooked the food to be cooked, the cleaning difficulty of the contaminated locations in the cavity of the cooking device box is different. For example, it is more difficult to clean the top of the cavity than the bottom of the cavity. Therefore, the controller can also obtain the weight values ​​corresponding to different locations in the cavity, and then determine the corresponding dirtiness level according to the weight values ​​and local dirtiness of the different locations, thereby improving the accuracy of determining the dirtiness level corresponding to different locations in the cavity.

[0078] Referring to the above example, if the weight value corresponding to position a is 0.6, the weight value corresponding to position b is 1.3, and the weight value corresponding to position c is 0.4, in the process of determining the corresponding dirtiness level according to the weight values ​​and local dirtiness levels corresponding to different positions, the local dirtiness levels corresponding to different positions are multiplied by their corresponding weight values ​​to determine the updated dirtiness levels of different positions, i.e., the updated dirtiness level of position a is 53.4, the updated dirtiness level of position b is 75.4, and the updated dirtiness level of position c is 8. Correspondingly, after the dirtiness levels of various positions are updated, the dirtiness level determined at position a is corrected to level B, the dirtiness level determined at position b is corrected to level A, and the dirtiness level determined at position c is still level C.

[0079] In an embodiment of the present application, after determining the dirt level corresponding to each position, the controller can determine the highest dirt level from the dirt levels corresponding to each position, and use the position corresponding to the highest dirt level as the target dirty position, and then adjust the operating parameters of the power module based on the target dirty position so that the spraying range of the spray module covers the target dirty position, that is, the spray module can focus on spraying and cleaning the positions with higher dirt levels, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device.

[0080] Among them, the method of determining the highest dirt level from the dirt levels corresponding to different positions can be by sorting the different dirt levels in alphabetical order or in Arabic numerals, that is, the closer the letters or Arabic numerals corresponding to the dirt levels corresponding to different positions are, the higher the dirt level corresponding to the position is. Referring to the above example, level A is the highest dirt level, that is, the controller adjusts the operating parameters of the power module based on position b, so that the spraying range of the spray module covers position b, so as to focus on spraying and cleaning at position b to obtain a better cleaning effect.

[0081] In another exemplary embodiment, in the process of adjusting the operating parameters of the power module based on the target cleaning mode, the controller is further configured to perform the following steps:

[0082] In response to a third execution instruction of the target cleaning mode, a plurality of preset areas corresponding to the cavity are acquired;

[0083] The operating parameters of the power module are adjusted for each preset area in turn.

[0084] It should be noted that the third execution instruction is similar to the second execution instruction and can also be executed as a single execution instruction of a cleaning mode, or can be combined with the first execution instruction and / or the second execution instruction into a cleaning mode and executed in a preset order.

[0085] In the above process, the controller obtains multiple preset areas corresponding to the cavity in response to the third execution instruction of the target cleaning mode, that is, the controller includes a memory for storing multiple preset areas corresponding to the cavity. The total area of ​​the multiple preset areas is the total surface area of ​​the box.

[0086] The setting method of the multiple preset areas corresponding to the cavity can be flexibly set as needed. In one example, it can be set according to the top, side and bottom of the cavity, that is, the top, side and bottom of the cavity are the multiple preset areas corresponding to the cavity respectively.

[0087] In another example, the setting can be made according to the regional dirtiness of different areas in the cavity, for example, the different areas in the cavity are divided according to the regional dirtiness intervals corresponding to a plurality of preset areas, that is, the regional dirtiness intervals corresponding to the regional dirtiness of the different areas are divided. The regional dirtiness intervals corresponding to each preset area can be set according to actual conditions, and are not limited here.

[0088] In an embodiment of the present application, after the controller obtains multiple preset areas corresponding to the cavity, it can adjust the operating parameters of the power module for each preset area in turn, so that the spraying range of the spray module can be adjusted for different preset areas in the cavity, thereby further improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device and reducing the consumption of resources and energy.

[0089] The method of adjusting the operating parameters of the power module for each preset area in turn can be flexibly set as needed. In one example, the controller can obtain the cleaning time of the target cleaning mode, and then calculate the average execution time according to the cleaning time and the number of preset areas, so as to adjust the operating parameters of the power module for each preset area in turn according to the average execution time, so as to ensure that each preset area can be sprayed and cleaned intensively by the spray module. The average execution time represents the time for adjusting the operating parameters of the power module for each preset area.

[0090] In addition, in the process of adjusting the operating parameters of the power module for each preset area in turn, the controller can also obtain the priority level corresponding to each preset area, and determine the adjustment order according to the priority level corresponding to each preset area, so as to adjust the operating parameters of the power module for each preset area in turn based on the adjustment order, thereby ensuring that the priority cleaning device cleans the areas that are extremely susceptible to contamination and / or difficult-to-clean areas, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the cooking equipment.

[0091] In another example, the controller may first obtain the regional dirtiness corresponding to each of the multiple preset areas in the process of adjusting the operating parameters of the power module for each preset area in sequence, and then determine the corresponding execution time according to the regional dirtiness of each preset area, wherein the execution time represents the time for adjusting the operating parameters of the power module for the current preset area. Finally, the operating parameters of the power module are adjusted for each preset area in sequence according to the execution time corresponding to each preset area, thereby extending the spraying and cleaning time of the spraying module for the preset area with a higher regional dirtiness, and shortening the spraying and cleaning time of the spraying module for the preset area with a lower regional dirtiness, further reducing the consumption of resources and energy, and improving the user's satisfaction.

[0092] Figure 4 A control method for a cleaning device in a cooking device provided in an embodiment of the present application is combined with Figure 1The structural diagram of the cooking device in the cooking device, the control method of the cleaning device in the cooking device includes the following steps S01-step S14:

[0093] Step S01, determining a corresponding target cleaning mode according to a received cleaning instruction.

[0094] Among them, the method of receiving the cleaning instruction has been recorded in the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.

[0095] Step S02: adjusting the operating parameters of the power module based on the target cleaning mode.

[0096] The process of executing step S02 includes steps S03 to S06.

[0097] Step S03, obtaining the overall dirtiness of the cavity in response to the first execution instruction of the target cleaning mode.

[0098] The overall dirtiness of the cavity can be obtained by a turbidity monitoring device provided in the cooking device.

[0099] Step S04, determining whether the overall dirtiness in the cavity exceeds a preset overall dirtiness threshold.

[0100] In step S04, if the judgment is yes, it indicates that the dirt level in the cavity is high, and step S05 is executed to adjust the operating parameters of the power module using the first adjustment strategy, that is, to increase the operating power of the cleaning liquid pump in the power module and / or increase the valve opening of the solenoid valve. If the judgment is no, it indicates that the dirt level in the light body is low, and step S06 is executed to adjust the operating parameters of the power module using the second adjustment strategy, that is, to reduce the operating power of the cleaning liquid pump in the power module and / or reduce the valve opening of the solenoid valve.

[0101] In addition, in step S04, after determining whether the overall dirtiness in the cavity exceeds the preset overall dirtiness threshold, the operating parameters in the power module can be adjusted in sequence using the first adjustment strategy and the second adjustment strategy as described in the above embodiment.

[0102] The process of executing step S02 also includes steps S07 to S10.

[0103] Step S07 , obtaining local dirtiness at different positions in the cavity in response to the second execution instruction of the target cleaning mode.

[0104] Among them, the local dirtiness of different positions in the cavity can also be obtained through the turbidity monitoring device.

[0105] Step S08, determining the dirt level corresponding to each position according to the local dirtiness of different positions in the cavity.

[0106] In step S08, the dirtiness interval of the local dirtiness of the current position can be determined, and the dirtiness level corresponding to the dirtiness interval of each position can be used as the dirtiness level corresponding to each position. Alternatively, the weight values ​​corresponding to different positions can be determined, and then a dirtiness level with higher accuracy can be determined based on the weight values ​​corresponding to different positions and the local dirtiness.

[0107] Step S09, determining the highest dirt level from the dirt levels corresponding to each position, and taking the position corresponding to the highest dirt level as the target dirt position.

[0108] Step S10, adjusting the operating parameters of the power module based on the target dirt position.

[0109] Through step S10, the spraying module can focus on spraying and cleaning the position with the highest degree of dirt in the cavity, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device.

[0110] The process of executing step S02 also includes steps S11 to S14.

[0111] Step S11 , acquiring a plurality of preset areas corresponding to the cavity in response to a third execution instruction of the target cleaning mode.

[0112] Among them, the first execution instruction, the second execution instruction and the third execution instruction in the target cleaning mode can all be used as execution instructions in a cleaning mode, that is, a cleaning mode only executes one execution instruction; they can also be arbitrarily combined as execution instructions in a cleaning mode, that is, a cleaning mode can execute two or three execution instructions in a preset order.

[0113] Step S12, obtaining the area dirtiness corresponding to each of the plurality of preset areas.

[0114] Among them, the regional dirtiness corresponding to each of the multiple preset areas in the cavity can also be obtained through the turbidity monitoring device.

[0115] Step S13, determining the corresponding execution time according to the regional dirtiness of each preset area.

[0116] Step S14, adjusting the operating parameters of the power module for each preset area in turn according to the execution time corresponding to each preset area.

[0117] Through step S14, the spraying module can extend the spraying cleaning of the area with the highest degree of dirt in the cavity, further improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning device.
