[0030] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below.

[0031] The following is for reference. Figures 1-5 This invention describes an automatic floor cleaning method, apparatus, and floor cleaning system according to embodiments of the present invention.

[0032] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of an automatic floor cleaning method according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, this automatic floor cleaning method includes the following steps:

[0033] Step S1: Receive the target recipe and determine the working mode corresponding to the target recipe.

[0034] In a specific embodiment, a target recipe is received, and the corresponding working mode is determined. Specifically, the target recipe and its corresponding working mode are pre-set and stored in the storage device of the range hood. When the target recipe is received, the range hood activates the corresponding working mode. Target recipes include, but are not limited to, Sichuan stir-fry dishes, Cantonese steamed dishes, and noodle dishes. For example, the working mode of the range hood for Sichuan stir-fry recipes is stir-fry mode. The working parameters of the range hood in stir-fry mode include, but are not limited to, high heat, high airflow, and short working time. The smoke characteristics of this mode are high concentration of oil fumes and a lot of smoke residue. The working mode for Cantonese steamed dishes is steaming mode. The working parameters of the range hood in steaming mode include, but are not limited to, low heat, medium airflow, and long working time. The smoke characteristics of this mode are low concentration of steam and little smoke residue. The working mode for noodle dishes is cooking mode. The working parameters of the range hood in cooking mode include, but are not limited to, medium heat, low airflow, and medium working time. The smoke characteristics of this mode are no obvious smoke.

[0035] Specifically, the automatic floor cleaning method provided in the embodiments of the present invention can realize the linkage between the range hood and the sweeping robot. First, it receives the target recipe and determines the working mode corresponding to the target recipe as the basic condition for cleaning control of the floor.

[0036] Step S2: Determine the level of pollution on the ground where the range hood and stove are located based on the working mode.

[0037] In a specific embodiment, the degree of contamination of the ground where the stove is located is determined according to the working mode. Specifically, the degree of contamination of the ground where the stove is located corresponding to a preset working mode and a degree of contamination (such as a correspondence table) can be used to determine the degree of contamination of the ground corresponding to the working mode. For example, the stir-fry mode corresponding to Sichuan stir-fry recipes corresponds to a higher degree of contamination, the steaming mode corresponding to Cantonese steamed recipes corresponds to a medium degree of contamination, and the cooking mode corresponding to noodle-cooking recipes corresponds to a lower degree of contamination.

[0038] Specifically, according to the automatic floor cleaning method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, the degree of pollution of the floor where the range hood and stove are located is determined according to the working mode, which serves as the basis for cleaning control of the floor. In other words, the automatic floor cleaning method provided in the embodiments of the present invention is controlled based on the working mode corresponding to the target recipe.

[0039] Step S3: Determine the cleaning strategy based on the degree of pollution, and control the robot vacuum cleaner to clean the floor according to the cleaning strategy.

[0040] In a specific embodiment, before determining the cleaning strategy based on the degree of contamination and controlling the robot vacuum to clean the floor according to the cleaning strategy, the robot vacuum and the range hood / stove are first linked. Specifically, this can be achieved through manual linkage control via a user terminal or through automatic linkage control based on the status of the range hood / stove.

[0041] In specific embodiments, different levels of contamination can correspond to different cleaning strategies. For example, a comprehensive and simple cleaning strategy can be adopted when the level of contamination is low, while a targeted cleaning strategy can be adopted when the level of contamination is high.

[0042] Specifically, according to the automatic floor cleaning method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, a cleaning strategy is determined based on the degree of contamination, and a sweeping robot is controlled to clean the floor using the cleaning strategy. In this way, based on the working mode corresponding to the received target recipe, the degree of contamination of the floor where the range hood and stove are located is determined, and then different cleaning strategies are determined based on different degrees of contamination, and the sweeping robot is controlled to clean the floor using the cleaning strategy. This ensures that the sweeping robot can accurately clean the floor, while also ensuring the efficiency and intelligence of the sweeping robot's cleaning.

[0043] Therefore, the automatic floor cleaning method according to embodiments of the present invention can realize the linkage between the range hood / stove and the sweeping robot. First, it receives a target recipe and determines the corresponding working mode as the basic condition for cleaning control of the floor. Then, based on the working mode, it determines the degree of pollution of the floor where the range hood / stove is located, as the basis for cleaning control of the floor. Finally, it determines a cleaning strategy based on the degree of pollution and controls the sweeping robot to clean the floor according to the cleaning strategy. In this way, based on the working mode corresponding to the received target recipe, the degree of pollution of the floor where the range hood / stove is located is determined, and then different cleaning strategies are determined according to different degrees of pollution, and the sweeping robot is controlled to clean the floor according to the cleaning strategies, thereby ensuring the precise cleaning of the floor by the sweeping robot, while ensuring the cleaning efficiency and intelligence of the sweeping robot.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, step S1 determines the working mode corresponding to the target recipe, including: different target recipes correspond to different working modes, wherein at least one of the stove firepower, fan air volume and range hood working time is different in different working modes.

[0045] Specifically, the target recipes and their corresponding operating modes are pre-set and stored in the range hood and cooktop. When a target recipe is received, the range hood and cooktop activate the corresponding operating mode. Target recipes include, but are not limited to, Sichuan stir-fry dishes, Cantonese steamed dishes, and noodle dishes. For example, the operating mode for Sichuan stir-fry recipes is the stir-fry mode, with operating parameters including, but not limited to, high heat, high airflow, and short operating time. The smoke characteristics of this mode are high concentration of oil fumes and a lot of residue. The operating mode for Cantonese steamed dishes is the steaming mode, with operating parameters including, but not limited to, low heat, medium airflow, and long operating time. The smoke characteristics of this mode are low concentration of steam and little residue. The operating mode for noodle dishes is the cooking mode, with operating parameters including, but not limited to, medium heat, low airflow, and medium operating time. The smoke characteristics of this mode are no obvious smoke.

[0046] Specifically, according to the automatic floor cleaning method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, different target recipes correspond to different working modes, wherein at least one of the stove firepower, fan air volume and range hood working time is different in different working modes; thereby, the working mode corresponding to the target recipe can be accurately determined, which facilitates the determination of the degree of pollution on the floor where the range hood is located based on the working mode, and the determination of the cleaning strategy based on the degree of pollution.

[0047] In one embodiment of the present invention, step S2 determines the degree of pollution of the ground where the stove is located according to the working mode, including: determining the degree of pollution corresponding to the working mode based on a preset correspondence between the preset working mode and the degree of pollution.

[0048] In a specific embodiment, the pollution level corresponding to a given working mode is determined based on a preset correspondence between the working mode and the pollution level. Specifically, the preset correspondence can be, for example, a relationship table, which can be pre-written into a storage device such as the register of the range hood and read when needed.

[0049] Specifically, according to the automatic floor cleaning method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, the degree of pollution corresponding to the working mode is determined based on the preset correspondence between the preset working mode and the degree of pollution; thus, the degree of pollution of the floor where the stove and range hood are located can be accurately reflected according to the working mode, thereby facilitating the determination of cleaning strategies based on the degree of pollution.

[0050] In one embodiment of the present invention, step S3 determines a cleaning strategy based on the degree of contamination, including: different degrees of contamination correspond to different cleaning strategies, wherein the higher the degree of contamination, the greater the cleaning power, the slower the movement speed, the wider the cleaning path range, and the more cleaning times in the corresponding cleaning strategy.

[0051] In specific embodiments, the cleaning strategy includes cleaning power, moving speed, cleaning path range, and cleaning frequency. Specifically, the higher the degree of contamination, the greater the cleaning power, the slower the moving speed, the wider the cleaning path range, and the more cleaning frequency in the corresponding cleaning strategy. For example, the cleaning strategy for light contamination has a cleaning power of 50%-70%, a moving speed of 20-25 cm / s, a cleaning path range of spiral cleaning along the edge of the contaminated area, and one cleaning frequency. The cleaning strategy for moderate contamination has a cleaning power of 70%-90%, a moving speed of 15-20 cm / s, a cleaning path range of grid-like coverage of the contaminated area, with a denser path in key areas (in front of the stove), and two cleaning frequency. The cleaning strategy for heavy contamination has a cleaning power of 90%-100%, a moving speed of 10-15 cm / s, a cleaning path range of first cleaning the boundaries, then covering layer by layer from the inside out, combined with strong sweeping by the side brush, and three cleaning frequency.

[0052] Specifically, according to the automatic floor cleaning method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, different cleaning strategies correspond to different levels of pollution. The higher the level of pollution, the greater the cleaning power, the slower the movement speed, the wider the cleaning path range, and the more cleaning times in the corresponding cleaning strategy. Thus, a reasonable cleaning strategy can be determined according to the level of pollution to ensure the quality and intelligence of cleaning.

[0053] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of an automatic floor cleaning method according to another embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, step S3, which involves controlling the sweeping robot to clean the floor using a cleaning strategy, further includes step S4: detecting oil stain data on the floor, combining the oil stain data and the cleaning strategy to determine an optimized cleaning strategy, and controlling the sweeping robot to clean the floor using the optimized cleaning strategy.

[0054] In a specific embodiment, oil stain data on the ground can be detected using relevant sensors. Specifically, for example, the oil stain sensor built into a robotic vacuum cleaner can be used to detect oil stain data on the ground.

[0055] In a specific embodiment, an optimized cleaning strategy is determined by combining oil stain data and cleaning strategies, and the robot vacuum cleaner is controlled to clean the floor using the optimized strategy. Specifically, for example, when oil stains are detected on the floor, the optimized cleaning strategy may include increasing cleaning intensity, such as increasing cleaning power and reducing moving speed.

[0056] Specifically, according to the automatic floor cleaning method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, by detecting oil stain data on the floor, combining the oil stain data with the cleaning strategy to determine an optimized cleaning strategy, and controlling a sweeping robot to clean the floor using the optimized cleaning strategy; that is, in addition to determining the degree of pollution on the floor where the stove is located based on the working mode corresponding to the received target recipe, and then determining different cleaning strategies based on different degrees of pollution, the cleaning strategy is also optimized based on the detected oil stain data on the floor to obtain an optimized cleaning strategy, and the sweeping robot is controlled to clean the floor using the optimized cleaning strategy, thereby ensuring the targeting and precision of cleaning and further improving the cleaning quality.

[0057] Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating the determination of an optimized cleaning strategy according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, step S4 combines oil stain data and cleaning strategy to determine an optimized cleaning strategy, including: step S41: when it is determined that there is oil stain on the ground, the optimized cleaning strategy is determined to include increasing cleaning power and reducing moving speed based on the cleaning strategy.

[0058] Specifically, according to the automatic floor cleaning method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, when it is determined that there is oil on the floor, an optimized cleaning strategy is determined, which includes increasing the cleaning power and reducing the moving speed based on the cleaning strategy; that is, when oil is detected on the floor, the cleaning power is increased and the moving speed is reduced based on the cleaning strategy determined according to the working mode, thereby ensuring the targeted and high-quality cleaning.

[0059] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, step S4, which combines oil stain data and cleaning strategies to determine an optimized cleaning strategy, includes:

[0060] Step S42: When it is determined that there is oil on the ground and there are obstacles within a preset range of the location of the oil, determine the optimized cleaning strategy, including recording the preset range and pausing the cleaning of the ground within the preset range.

[0061] Step S43: When there are no obstacles within the preset range, determine the optimized cleaning strategy, which includes continuing to clean the ground within the preset range.

[0062] In a specific embodiment, when it is determined that there is oil on the ground and there are obstacles within a preset range of the oil stain's location, the preset range is first recorded, and cleaning of the ground within the preset range is paused. When there are no obstacles within the preset range, cleaning of the ground within the preset range resumes. Specifically, the preset range is set as needed, for example, 10 centimeters outside the oil stain's location. Obstacles include, but are not limited to, people and objects that obstruct cleaning.

[0063] Specifically, according to the automatic floor cleaning method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, when it is determined that there is oil on the ground and there are obstacles within a preset range of the location of the oil, the optimized cleaning strategy includes recording the preset range and pausing the cleaning of the ground within the preset range; when there are no obstacles within the preset range, the optimized cleaning strategy includes continuing to clean the ground within the preset range; that is, when it is determined that there is oil on the ground and there are obstacles within a preset range of the location of the oil, the preset range is first recorded and the cleaning of the ground within the preset range is paused; when there are no obstacles within the preset range, the cleaning of the ground within the preset range continues, thereby taking into account both the safety and continuity of cleaning.

[0064] In one embodiment of the present invention, before controlling the sweeping robot to clean the floor with a cleaning strategy, step S3 further includes: detecting the concentration of air particulate matter in the area where the range hood is located; when the concentration of air particulate matter is within a preset range, controlling the sweeping robot to clean the floor with a cleaning strategy.

[0065] In a specific embodiment, the concentration of airborne particulate matter in the area where the range hood and stove are located is first detected. When the concentration of airborne particulate matter is within a preset range, the robot vacuum cleaner is controlled to clean the floor using a cleaning strategy. Specifically, the concentration of airborne particulate matter (such as PM2.5 concentration) in the area where the range hood and stove are located can be detected by relevant sensors such as an airborne particulate matter concentration sensor. The preset range can be set as needed, such as 50 μg / m³. 3 .

[0066] Specifically, according to the automatic floor cleaning method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, the concentration of air particulate matter in the area where the range hood and stove are located is first detected. When the concentration of air particulate matter is within a preset range, the robot vacuum cleaner is controlled to clean the floor with a cleaning strategy. That is, cleaning only begins when the concentration of air particulate matter reaches a stable range, so as to accurately grasp the cleaning timing, and only turn on when cleaning is needed, and not turn on when cleaning is not needed, so as to avoid the problems of wasting energy and shortening the life of the robot vacuum cleaner caused by frequent turning on.

[0067] The automatic floor cleaning method of the present invention described above in conjunction with specific embodiments is described below. In this specific embodiment, an intelligent cleaning system is used to execute the automatic floor cleaning method of the present invention above, so as to control the sweeping robot to intelligently and efficiently complete the kitchen floor cleaning work according to the received recipe.

[0068] In this specific embodiment, the intelligent cleaning system includes a range hood, a control unit, and a robotic vacuum cleaner.

[0069] Specifically, the range hood and cooktop system includes: a control module, a status detection module, and a first communication module. The control module invokes a preset operating mode based on the target recipe, driving the range hood and cooktop to perform corresponding actions (such as adjusting airflow and heat). The status detection module includes an airflow sensor (detecting range hood airflow), a heat sensor (detecting cooktop heat), a timer (recording operating time), a PM2.5 sensor, a smoke sensor, and a recipe input module (receiving the user-selected target recipe). The status detection module collects the operating status parameters of the range hood and cooktop. The first communication module interacts with the control unit, sending operating status parameters and receiving control commands.

[0070] Specifically, the control unit includes: a data processing module, a strategy generation module, and a second communication module. The data processing module receives the status parameters of the range hood and stove, and calculates the pollution coefficient and pollution range; the strategy generation module generates a cleaning control strategy for the robot vacuum cleaner based on the pollution assessment results; the second communication module communicates bidirectionally with the range hood, stove, and robot vacuum cleaner.

[0071] Specifically, a robotic vacuum cleaner includes: a cleaning execution module, a movement module, a path planning module, and a third communication module. The cleaning execution module can adjust the working power (brush speed, fan suction); the movement module can adjust the movement speed; the path planning module can plan a cleaning path according to the area of ​​pollution; and the third communication module receives the cleaning strategy from the control unit and provides feedback on the execution status.

[0072] In this specific embodiment, after the user selects a target recipe via the range hood display screen or the associated APP, the range hood control module automatically matches the preset working mode, as shown in the following example:

[0073]

[0074] In this specific embodiment, the pollution coefficient (P) is used to quantify the degree of ground pollution. It is calculated based on a weighted average of the stove and chimney status parameters, as shown in the following formula: Among them: W i The weight of the i-th parameter (summed to 1, set based on experimental data); S i is the standardized value of the i-th parameter (0-1, mapped according to the parameter range); T is the time correction factor (T = 1 + 0.01 times t, where t is the working time of the stove (min), with an upper limit of 1.5).

[0075] Specifically, examples of parameters and weights are as follows:

[0076]

[0077]

[0078] In this specific embodiment, the specific working process of the range hood and stove after determining the pollution range includes:

[0079] S1: The status detection module collects status parameters in real time and sends data to the control unit every 30s.

[0080] S2: The control unit calculates the pollution coefficient P and the pollution range (for example, when P≤0.5, it is light pollution, and the range is 1m around the range hood and stove; when 0.5<P≤1.0, it is medium pollution, and the range is 2m; when P>1.0, it is heavy pollution, and the range is 3m), and feeds it back to the range hood and stove.

[0081] S3: After the range hood and stove receive the pollution range information, the following operations are performed:

[0082] If it is medium or above pollution, the range hood display shows "Ground pollution warning: It is recommended to clean". ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

[0094] 5. Adaptive cleaning: The robot performs cleaning according to the strategy and provides real-time progress feedback.

[0095] 6. End: After cleaning is completed, the robot returns to the base station, the control unit sends a "cleaning complete" signal to the range hood and stove, and the range hood and stove record the data for optimizing the weight parameters.

[0096] As can be seen from this specific embodiment, the intelligent cleaning system has the following beneficial effects:

[0097] First, establish a correlation model between the multi-dimensional working status of the range hood and the ground pollution, and quantify the pollution coefficient through parameters such as firepower and air volume to achieve accurate pollution assessment.

[0098] Secondly, it enables intelligent binding of recipes with the working modes of the range hood and stove, making pollution assessments more consistent with actual cooking scenarios.

[0099] Next, a graded cleaning strategy for the robot vacuum cleaner based on the pollution coefficient was designed, dynamically adjusting power, speed, and path to improve cleaning efficiency.

[0100] Finally, a closed-loop linkage system of "range hood, stove, control unit, and robot vacuum cleaner" is constructed, with the range hood and stove participating in pollution monitoring and cleaning triggering to form a full-scene collaboration.

[0101] In summary, the automatic floor cleaning method according to embodiments of the present invention enables the linkage between the range hood / stove and the robotic vacuum cleaner. First, it receives a target recipe and determines the corresponding working mode as the basis for floor cleaning control.
