[0080] Figure 9A hardware structure schematic diagram of an electronic device is provided for an embodiment of the present application.

[0081] The specific embodiments of the present application have been shown through the above drawings, and will be described in more detail hereinafter. These drawings and the written description are not intended to restrict the scope of the present application concept in any way, but to illustrate the present application concept for those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0082] The exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein below with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the same numbers refer to the same elements throughout the drawings. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all embodiments consistent with the present application.

[0083] The trimmer is used to clean the grass on the boundary. The trimmer cuts the grass by swinging the grass rope. The grass rope will be worn out during use, and a part of the grass rope needs to be released from the grass rope box to make up for the wear and tear.

[0084] In some technologies, the current length of the grass rope can be automatically detected, and if the current length is less than a certain value, the automatic rope releasing operation is triggered. However, the detected current length of the grass rope can not be accurate enough, so that the rope releasing operation can be performed when it is not needed. In addition, the above-mentioned rope releasing method has no user awareness, and if the user is near the mower, the swinging grass rope can injure the user. Therefore, the above-mentioned automatic rope releasing method has the problem of inaccurate rope releasing timing, which cannot meet the user's needs.

[0085] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a mower provided with a trimmer accessory is provided for an embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 The trimmer can be provided as an accessory on the mower. Based on the above-mentioned problems, considering that the trimmer is often provided as an accessory on the mower, and the user can usually manually control the mower to mow, or control the mower to mow through the application program on the terminal device. Therefore, during the mowing process of the mower, the user can determine whether the rope needs to be released, and when the rope needs to be released, the user can control the mower to release the rope based on the mower or the application program on the terminal device, so as to ensure the accuracy of the rope releasing timing and meet the user's needs.

[0086] Figure 2 A rope releasing control method is provided for an embodiment of the present application, the method is applied to a controller of a mower or a controller of a trimmer accessory, the trimmer accessory is detachably provided on the mower, and the trimmer accessory includes a trimmer motor, a trimmer head and a grass rope. The controller is connected with the trimmer motor. The method comprises:

[0087] Step S201, when the edge trimming accessory is arranged on the mower, upon receiving the rope releasing control instruction, the controller of the mower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory controls the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate, so as to control the release of the grass trimming rope.

[0088] The rope releasing control instruction is generated when the target button arranged on the mower is triggered by the user, or the rope releasing control instruction is generated when the terminal device identifies the target operation of the user.

[0089] In order to facilitate the control of the rope releasing timing of the grass trimming rope, the user can trigger the rope releasing action. In order to improve the user experience, two ways can be used to generate the rope releasing control instruction. One is to arrange a target button on the mower, and generate the rope releasing control instruction by triggering the target button. The other is that the user issues the rope releasing control instruction through the terminal device by identifying the target action of the user.

[0090] When the target button on the mower is used to generate the rope releasing control instruction, the controller can directly receive the rope releasing control instruction. When the terminal device is used to generate the rope releasing control instruction, the terminal device and the mower or the edge trimming accessory can communicate wirelessly, so that the controller in the mower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory can receive the rope releasing control instruction sent by the terminal device.

[0091] Optionally, the edge trimming accessory has two working modes. One is that a certain position of the grass trimming rope is fixed in the grass trimming line box, the edge trimming motor drives the edge trimming head to rotate, so that the edge trimming rope is swung to trim the grass. The other is that the grass trimming rope is not fixed in the grass trimming line box, the edge trimming motor drives the edge trimming head to rotate, so that the grass trimming rope in the grass trimming line box is released. Therefore, upon receiving the rope releasing control instruction, the controller in the mower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory can first arrange the grass trimming rope in the grass trimming line box in an unfixed manner, and then control the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate, so as to control the release of the grass trimming rope.

[0092] The application provides a rope releasing control method, which is applied to a controller of a mower or a controller of an edge trimming accessory, the edge trimming accessory is detachably arranged on the mower, the mower is provided with the edge trimming accessory, the edge trimming accessory comprises an edge trimming motor, an edge trimming head and a grass trimming rope, the controller is connected with the edge trimming motor, and the method comprises the following steps: when the edge trimming accessory is arranged on the mower, the controller of the mower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory controls the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate to control the release of the grass trimming rope when a rope releasing control instruction is received; the rope releasing control instruction is generated when a target button arranged on the mower is triggered by a user, or the rope releasing control instruction is generated when a target operation of the user is identified by a terminal device, the rope releasing control instruction is triggered by the user through the target button arranged on the mower or the target operation of the user identified by the terminal device, the rope releasing operation is performed in the case that the user has a perception, the accuracy of the rope releasing timing is improved, and the user demand is met.

[0093] Optionally, the target button is a rope releasing function button.

[0094] When the mower is in an edge trimming mode, the grass trimming rope of the edge trimming accessory is used for mowing, and the rope releasing function button is used for generating the rope releasing control instruction.

[0095] Or, when the mower is not in the edge trimming mode, the grass trimming rope of the edge trimming accessory is not used for mowing, and the rope releasing function button is used for generating other control instructions except the rope releasing control instruction.

[0096] When the rope releasing control instruction is triggered through the target button on the mower, a rope releasing function button can be arranged on the mower, and the rope releasing control instruction is generated by triggering the rope releasing function button.

[0097] Optionally, the edge trimming accessory is arranged on the mower as a component of the mower, and a cutter head is further arranged on the mower, so that the mower can be in two modes for mowing, one is a mowing mode, that is, the cutter head is started to mow, and the other is an edge trimming mode, that is, the edge trimming accessory is started to mow. In order to improve the use rate of the rope releasing function button, the grass trimming rope of the edge trimming accessory can be used for mowing when the mower is in the edge trimming mode, and the rope releasing control instruction can be generated; when the mower is not in the edge trimming mode, the grass trimming rope of the edge trimming accessory does not mow, and other control instructions can be generated. For example, the rotation speed of the cutter head can be controlled in the mowing mode.

[0098] By arranging the rope releasing function button and setting different functions for the rope releasing function button in different modes of the mower, the rationality of the rope releasing function button is improved, so that more buttons do not need to be arranged to realize different functions, and the use experience of the user is improved.

[0099] Optionally, the target button is the power switch provided on the lawnmower;

[0100] When the lawnmower is in edge trimming mode, the on / off switch is used to generate the rope release control command;

[0101] Alternatively, when the lawnmower is in mowing mode, the on / off switch is used to control the start and stop of the lawnmower.

[0102] When triggering the rope release control command via the target button on the lawnmower, the on / off switch on the lawnmower can also be used to generate the rope release control command. This is because lawnmowers typically have an on / off switch that controls the start and stop of the lawnmower in mowing mode. Therefore, it is possible to consider using the on / off switch to control the rope release of the edge trimming accessory in edge trimming mode.

[0103] By reusing the power switch, there is no need to design a separate button for the rope release operation, which can reduce the hardware cost of the lawnmower, reduce the complexity of the internal wiring, and improve the user experience by reducing the number of buttons.

[0104] Optionally, the target button is a combination button; the combination button includes at least a first button and a second button; the combination button is used to generate the rope release control command when the first button and the second button are triggered simultaneously.

[0105] Lawn mowers may already have multiple buttons installed, each for a different function. When a rope release control command is needed, it's not necessary to create a new button; the command can be generated based on some of the existing buttons on the lawn mower.

[0106] Optionally, a combination button can be set, which can include at least two buttons, such as a first button and a second button. When the user triggers the first button and the second button at the same time, a rope release control command can be generated, thus realizing the generation of rope release control command in the edge-trimming mode without setting a new button.

[0107] Generating rope release control commands via button combinations can reduce the hardware cost of lawnmowers, simplify internal wiring, and improve user experience.

[0108] Optionally, the target button is used to control the lawnmower to start or stop edge trimming; or, the target operation is used to control the lawnmower to start or stop edge trimming.

[0109] To improve the user experience and eliminate the need for users to observe the length of the mowing rope to trigger the rope release operation, it is suggested that the rope be released after the lawnmower performs a certain fixed operation.

[0110] Generally, the grass cutting rope will be worn after a period of use, and the rope releasing operation can be performed after the grass cutting machine stops the edge cutting operation. Alternatively, in order to avoid that the grass cutting rope is too short to affect the edge cutting effect, the grass cutting machine performs the rope releasing operation before starting the edge cutting each time.

[0111] Optionally, the grass cutting machine can be controlled to start or stop the edge cutting through a target button on the grass cutting machine, so that the rope releasing control instruction can be generated when the target button is triggered.

[0112] Optionally, the grass cutting machine can also be controlled to start or stop the edge cutting through a target operation of a user on a terminal device, so that the rope releasing control instruction can be generated when the terminal device identifies the target operation of the user.

[0113] By performing the rope releasing operation when starting or stopping the edge cutting, the user does not need to observe whether the grass cutting rope needs to be released, which can improve the user experience, and the user can perceive that the rope releasing operation will be performed when the user triggers the starting or stopping operation, so that the rope releasing operation will not be performed without the user's perception.

[0114] Optionally, the terminal device is provided with a rope releasing function control;

[0115] The target operation is at least one of the following: the rope releasing function control is triggered, a target gesture, a target action or a target voice; and the terminal device is connected with the grass cutting machine or the edge cutting accessory.

[0116] When the rope releasing control instruction is issued through the terminal device, the rope releasing function control can be set on the terminal device, and the rope releasing control instruction can be generated when the user triggers the rope releasing function control.

[0117] Alternatively, a target gesture, a target action or a target language can also be set in advance and stored, and the rope releasing control instruction can be generated when the user issues the corresponding gesture, action or voice. For example, whether it is a target gesture can be identified through a camera on the terminal device.

[0118] Optionally, the target action can be a certain pattern drawn by the user on the terminal device.

[0119] By setting multiple target operations for triggering the rope releasing control instruction, the user can use any of the target operations to issue the rope releasing control instruction based on the terminal device, which improves the convenience of issuing the rope releasing control instruction.

[0120] Optionally, the grass cutting machine is also provided with an infrared device, and the method further comprises:

[0121] When the mower is working, the current length of the grass cutting rope is identified by at least one of the following ways: the infrared device, force feedback information when the beater rotates, and grass cutting effect information of a grass cutting area.

[0122] If the current length is less than a first preset length, notification information is generated and sent to the terminal device, so as to enable the user to determine whether to trigger generation of the rope release control instruction.

[0123] For the way of issuing the rope release control instruction, the mower can also automatically identify the current length of the grass cutting rope. If the current length is less than the first preset length, it indicates that the grass cutting rope needs to be released. However, the current length of the grass cutting rope identified by the mower may not be accurate. Therefore, when the mower detects that the current length is less than the first preset length, the user can be notified to observe the actual current length of the grass cutting rope to determine whether the generation of the rope release control instruction needs to be triggered.

[0124] Optionally, the notification information can be sent to the terminal device to notify the user, or a set sound can also be emitted by the mower to notify the user.

[0125] Optionally, the first preset length can be set according to actual conditions, and no specific numerical value is limited here.

[0126] Optionally, there can be multiple methods to identify the current length of the grass cutting rope. One method is to provide an infrared device on the mower. The current length of the grass cutting rope can be detected by the infrared device and sent to the controller. Another method is that when the beater rotates, there is force feedback (resistance). The force feedback is related to the current length of the grass cutting rope. The greater the current length, the greater the force feedback. The smaller the current length, the smaller the force feedback. The force feedback information of the beater can be transmitted to the controller, so that the controller can determine the current length based on the force feedback information. Another method is to provide an image recognition device on the mower. Based on the device, the grass cutting effect of the grass cutting area can be determined. The grass cutting effect is sent to the controller, so that the controller can determine the current length based on the grass cutting effect. Exemplarily, the image recognition device can collect pictures of the grass cutting area. In addition, a target picture, that is, a picture with good grass cutting effect, can be set in advance. The collected picture and the target picture are compared to determine the grass cutting effect.

[0127] By automatically detecting the current length of the grass cutting rope and notifying the user, the user can avoid frequently paying attention to whether the grass cutting rope needs to be released. In addition, the problem that the grass cutting effect is poor when the grass cutting rope needs to be released but the user does not discover it can also be avoided, so that the grass cutting rope can be released in time.

[0128] Optionally, the control of the beater motor to drive the beater to rotate to control the release of the grass cutting rope comprises:

[0129] controlling the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate according to preset rotation information, so as to control the release of the grass trimming rope; the preset rotation information is related to a preset release length;

[0130] Alternatively, while controlling the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate, force feedback information of the edge trimming head when rotating is determined; when the force feedback information is greater than or equal to a preset resistance, the edge trimming motor is controlled to stop driving the edge trimming head to rotate, so as to control the release of the grass trimming rope; the preset resistance is related to a maximum allowable length of the grass trimming rope.

[0131] When the release of the grass trimming rope is controlled, a certain length of the grass trimming rope can be released each time, which is the preset release length. For example, if the preset release length is 30 cm, 30 cm of the grass trimming rope is released each time when the release control instruction is received. If the grass trimming rope itself has 10 cm left before the release control instruction is received, the length of the grass trimming rope after the release is 40 cm.

[0132] Optionally, the preset release length can be stored in the controller. When the release control instruction is received, the preset rotation information such as the rotation time and the rotation speed can be calculated according to the preset release length, and the corresponding length of the rope can be released according to the preset rotation information.

[0133] Optionally, the preset rotation information can also be directly stored in the controller.

[0134] In addition, the maximum allowable length of the grass trimming rope can also be set in the controller. According to the maximum allowable length, a preset resistance can be calculated, that is, when the length of the grass trimming rope is the maximum allowable length, the corresponding resistance of the edge trimming head when rotating. Therefore, while controlling the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate, the force feedback information of the edge trimming head when rotating on the edge trimming accessory can also be obtained. When the force feedback information is equal to or greater than the preset resistance, it indicates that the current length of the grass trimming rope is equal to or exceeds the maximum allowable length, and the driving of the edge trimming head to rotate is stopped, that is, the continuous release of the grass trimming rope is stopped. For example, if the maximum allowable length is 50 cm, the preset resistance N is calculated, and when the obtained force feedback information is equal to or greater than N, the release of the grass trimming rope is stopped.

[0135] Optionally, the preset resistance can also be directly stored in the controller.

[0136] By setting the information representing the preset release length or the maximum allowable length, the control of the length of the grass trimming rope during the release of the grass trimming rope can be realized, and the influence of the release length of the grass trimming rope on the grass trimming effect or the surrounding objects can be avoided.

[0137] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0138] receiving a target length sent by the terminal device; the target length is set by a user;

[0139] Correspondingly, the target length is a target release length; the edge trimming motor is controlled to drive the edge trimming head to rotate to control the release of the grass trimming rope, including:

[0140] The edge trimming motor is controlled to drive the edge trimming head to rotate according to the first target rotation information to control the release of the grass trimming rope; the first target rotation information is related to the target release length;

[0141] Alternatively, correspondingly, the target length is a target total length at the end of the release of the grass trimming rope; the edge trimming motor is controlled to drive the edge trimming head to rotate to control the release of the grass trimming rope, including:

[0142] The edge trimming motor is controlled to drive the edge trimming head to rotate, and force feedback information when the edge trimming head rotates is determined at the same time; when the force feedback information is greater than or equal to a target resistance, the edge trimming motor is controlled to stop driving the edge trimming head to rotate; the target resistance is related to the target total length.

[0143] In order to further improve the user experience, the user can also set a target length through the terminal device, so as to release the rope based on the target length. The user can customize the target length according to the demand, so that the user sets different target lengths according to different scenes.

[0144] After the terminal device receives the target length set by the user, the target length can be sent to the controller of the lawn mower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory. The controller of the lawn mower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory can control the release of the grass trimming rope based on the target length.

[0145] Optionally, the target length can be a target release length, that is, the length of the rope to be released each time. When the controller receives the target release length, the corresponding first target rotation information including the rotation speed and the rotation time can be determined, and the edge trimming motor can be controlled to drive the edge trimming head to rotate based on the first target rotation information to stop when the target release length is released.

[0146] Optionally, the target length can also be a target total length at the end of the release of the grass trimming rope. When the controller receives the target total length, a target resistance can be determined, which is positively related to the target total length. While the edge trimming motor is controlled to drive the edge trimming head to rotate, force feedback information uploaded by the edge trimming accessory, that is, force feedback information when the edge trimming head rotates, can be received. When the force feedback information is greater than or equal to the target resistance, the edge trimming motor can be controlled to stop driving the edge trimming head to rotate.

[0147] Optionally, when the terminal device controls the release of the grass cutting rope, the target length can be sent to the controller of the grass cutting machine or the controller of the edge trimming accessory after the user sets the target length on the terminal device, and the target length can also be sent to the controller of the grass cutting machine or the controller of the edge trimming accessory together with the release control instruction and the target length when the user triggers the target operation.

[0148] By setting the target length on the terminal device, the user can control the grass cutting machine to release the grass cutting rope according to the specified length, and the user can set or modify the target length according to actual needs, thereby improving the user experience.

[0149] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0150] receiving second target rotation information sent by the terminal device through a polling interface;

[0151] Correspondingly, the control of the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate to control the release of the grass cutting rope comprises:

[0152] controlling the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate according to the second target rotation information to control the release of the grass cutting rope; the second target rotation information is a rotation speed corresponding to different time points respectively determined according to release information; the release information includes the target release length and the trigger time point of the target operation.

[0153] After the user sets the target length through the terminal device, the user can also not need to send the target length or information representing the target length to the controller, but can continuously send second target rotation information to the controller through the terminal device, so that the controller of the grass cutting machine controls the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate according to the second target rotation information.

[0154] Optionally, the terminal device can send the second target rotation information through a polling interface (an interface provided by an application program set on the terminal device for the grass cutting machine). In the polling interface, the rotation speed, that is, the release speed, is always transmitted. When the release is not needed, the rotation speed is 0, and when the user triggers the target operation, the rotation speed changes from 0 to a specified release speed. Optionally, the rotation speed and rotation time of the edge trimming head for different target release lengths are preset in the memory of the application program, so that the second target rotation information is transmitted according to the preset values.

[0155] Exemplarily, when the target pay-out length is 30 cm, the corresponding rotation speed is 3000, and the rotation duration is 10 seconds, when the user does not trigger the target operation, the rotation speed transmitted in the polling interface is 0, when the user triggers the target operation, the rotation speed is 3000, and 3000 is transmitted for a duration of 10 seconds, 0 is transmitted in the time period after 10 seconds. Correspondingly, the controller can directly control the edge beating motor to drive the edge beating head to rotate according to the rotation speed received at different times.

[0156] By calculating the rotation speed and the rotation duration on the side of the terminal device, and transmitting the corresponding rotation speed at different times to the controller, the controller can avoid performing the calculation of the rotation speed and the rotation duration, so that the execution logic of the controller is simplified, and the response speed of the lawn mower is improved.

[0157] Optionally, when the rope pay-out control instruction is generated when the target button on the lawn mower is triggered for a long time, or the terminal device generates the rope pay-out control instruction when the target operation is identified for a long time, the edge beating motor is controlled to drive the edge beating head to rotate to control the release of the grass beating rope, including:

[0158] The edge beating motor is controlled to drive the edge beating head to rotate to control the release of the grass beating rope until the target button on the lawn mower stops being triggered, or the terminal device no longer identifies the target operation.

[0159] Or, the edge beating motor is controlled to drive the edge beating head to rotate to control the release of the grass beating rope until the rope pay-out duration is greater than a preset duration, or the rope pay-out length is greater than a maximum pay-out length.

[0160] The user can press the target button on the lawn mower for a long time to continuously pay out the rope, and a corresponding length can be paid out according to the pressing duration. Alternatively, the terminal device can identify the target operation for a long time to continuously pay out the rope, and a corresponding length can be paid out according to the continuous duration.

[0161] Exemplarily, when the target button on the lawn mower is pressed, the controller controls the edge beating head to start rotating to fling out the grass beating rope, achieving the effect of extending the rope pay-out, and the rotation duration is synchronized with the time when the user presses the target button, and when the user releases the target button, the controller controls the edge beating head to stop rotating.

[0162] Exemplarily, the user can also press the rope pay-out function control on the terminal device for a long time to pay out a corresponding length according to the pressing duration.

[0163] The user can control the continuous release of the grass cutting rope by long pressing a target button on the grass cutter or continuously identifying a target operation, so as to improve the user's control ability of the grass cutting rope release, facilitate timely stopping of the release after a proper length is released, and meet the user's demand for the length of the grass cutting rope; if a target button is triggered to release a fixed length of the grass cutting rope, the released grass cutting rope may not meet the user's demand.

[0164] Optionally, the target button is arranged on the edge trimming accessory.

[0165] When the edge trimming accessory is detachably arranged on the grass cutter, the target button can also be arranged on the edge trimming accessory.

[0166] By arranging the target button on the edge trimming accessory, the user can generate a rope release control instruction by triggering the target button when installing, dismounting or checking the edge trimming accessory, and the user's experience is improved.

[0167] Optionally, the target button is arranged at a target position on the upper surface of the grass cutter; the target position is a position close to the side edge or the rear of the grass cutter.

[0168] The target button can be arranged at any position of the grass cutter. In order to facilitate the user's operation, the target button can be arranged at a target position on the upper surface of the grass cutter. When the grass cutter is working, a person will stand at a position behind the grass cutter. In order to facilitate the user's operation of bending over the grass cutter, the target position can be a position close to the side edge of the grass cutter, or a position close to the rear of the grass cutter.

[0169] As shown in Figure 1 the target button is arranged at a position close to the side edge and the rear on the upper surface of the grass cutter.

[0170] By limiting the position of the target button on the grass cutter, the user can operate the target button to facilitate the user to issue a rope release control instruction.

[0171] Figure 3 A flowchart of a setting method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in Figure 3 The method is applied to a terminal device, and the method comprises the following steps:

[0172] In step S301, a first interaction interface is displayed, and the first interaction interface is used for a user to perform a target operation.

[0173] In step S302, when it is detected that the user performs the target operation, a rope release control instruction is generated, and the rope release control instruction is sent to a controller of a grass cutter or a controller of an edge trimming accessory.

[0174] The edge trimming accessory is detachably arranged in the lawn mower; the edge trimming accessory is arranged in the lawn mower and includes an edge trimming motor, an edge trimming head and a grass trimming rope; the controller is connected with the edge trimming motor; the rope releasing control instruction is used to control the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate, so as to control the release of the grass trimming rope.

[0175] When the terminal device controls the lawn mower to release the grass trimming rope, a first interactive interface can be displayed to the user, on which the user can perform a target operation, and the terminal device can identify the target operation performed on the first interactive interface. The target operation is used to generate a rope releasing control instruction.

[0176] Optionally, an application program can be arranged on the terminal device, and the first interactive interface can be displayed based on the application program.

[0177] When the terminal device generates the rope releasing control instruction, the terminal device can send the rope releasing control instruction to the controller of the lawn mower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory. The controller of the lawn mower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory can control the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate based on the rope releasing control instruction, so as to release the grass trimming rope.

[0178] Optionally, the terminal device can perform wireless communication with the lawn mower, for example, Bluetooth communication, 4G communication, 5G communication or WIFI (WIreless Fidelity, wireless fidelity) communication, so as to transmit the rope releasing control instruction to the controller or receive information sent by the controller.

[0179] The application provides a setting method applied to a terminal device, which includes the following steps: displaying a first interactive interface, the first interactive interface being used for a user to perform a target operation; when it is detected that the user performs the target operation, generating a rope releasing control instruction and sending the rope releasing control instruction to a controller of a lawn mower or a controller of an edge trimming accessory; the edge trimming accessory is detachably arranged in the lawn mower; the edge trimming accessory is arranged in the lawn mower and includes an edge trimming motor, an edge trimming head and a grass trimming rope; the controller is connected with the edge trimming motor; the rope releasing control instruction is used to control the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate, so as to control the release of the grass trimming rope. The target operation of the user is identified by the terminal device to generate the rope releasing control instruction, so that the rope releasing control instruction is triggered by the user, the rope releasing operation is performed in a case where the user has a perception, the accuracy of a rope releasing opportunity is improved, and the demand of the user is met.

[0180] Optionally, when the lawn mower is in an edge trimming mode, a rope releasing function control is displayed on the first interactive interface, and the method further includes the following steps: detecting whether the rope releasing function control is triggered.

[0181] Alternatively, the method further comprises: determining whether a target gesture, a target action or a target voice is detected when the mower is in the edging mode.

[0182] Since the edging accessory is detachably mounted on the mower, when the edging accessory is mounted on the mower, the mower can be in the edging mode, so that the controller can control whether the edging accessory performs the edging operation.

[0183] When the mower is in the edging mode, the rope releasing function control can be displayed on the first interactive interface of the terminal device, so that it can be detected whether the rope releasing function control is triggered by the user to determine whether to generate a rope releasing control instruction. Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a first interactive interface provided by an embodiment of the application is shown in Figure 4 The rope releasing function control can be arranged on the first display interface.

[0184] In addition, when the mower is in the edging mode, the terminal device can also determine whether a target gesture, a target action or a target voice is detected, so as to generate a rope releasing control instruction in a timely manner when the above information is detected.

[0185] Alternatively, the mode in which the mower is located, such as the edging mode or the mowing mode, can be issued by the terminal device, and can also be issued by the user based on the keys on the mower. When issued based on the keys on the mower, the controller can transmit the information to the terminal device when the mode in which the mower is located is the edging mode, so that the terminal device determines that the mower is currently in the edging mode.

[0186] By displaying the rope releasing function control in the edging mode, it can be avoided that the user triggers the rope releasing function control in the mowing mode. In addition, in the edging mode, it is determined whether a target gesture, a target action or a target voice is detected, which can avoid performing the above operations in the mowing mode.

[0187] Alternatively, the method further comprises:

[0188] The notification information sent by the controller of the mower or the controller of the edging accessory is received and displayed, so that the user determines whether to trigger the generation of the rope releasing control instruction. The notification information is generated when the current length of the grass cutting rope is less than the first preset length.

[0189] The controller of the mower or the controller of the edging accessory can determine the current length of the grass cutting rope. When the current length is less than the first preset length, the notification information can be generated and sent to the terminal device. The terminal device can receive and display the notification information, so that the user can obtain the notification message, so that the user can view the actual current length of the grass cutting rope, and determine whether to issue the rope releasing control instruction.

[0190] Optionally, the notification information can be displayed on the interactive interface or by voice broadcast, etc. This application does not limit the specific method of displaying the notification information.

[0191] By sending a notification to the terminal device indicating that the current length of the trimming rope is less than a first preset length, users can avoid frequently checking whether the trimming rope needs to be released, and the problem of poor trimming effect caused by users not noticing when the rope needs to be released can be avoided, thus enabling timely release of the trimming rope.

[0192] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0193] A second interactive interface is displayed, which allows the user to set the target length.

[0194] After obtaining the target length set by the user, the target length is sent to the controller of the lawnmower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory, so that the controller of the lawnmower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory controls the release of the trimming rope according to the target length;

[0195] Alternatively, after obtaining the target length set by the user, the second target rotation information is determined based on the rope release information. The second target rotation information is then sent to the controller of the lawnmower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory through a polling interface, so that the controller of the lawnmower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory controls the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate according to the second target rotation information, thereby controlling the release of the trimming rope.

[0196] The second target rotation information represents the rotation speed at different times; the rope release information includes the target release length and the trigger time of the target operation.

[0197] The terminal device not only allows for issuing rope control commands but also enables setting target lengths, thus allowing for flexible release of the straw-cutting rope according to the user's needs.

[0198] A second interactive interface is displayed, allowing users to set the target length. Optionally, the target length can be set by user inputting a numerical value. Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of a second interactive interface provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 5 As shown, a selectable target length can also be displayed on the second interactive interface, which can be set by the user clicking.

[0199] After acquiring the target length, the terminal device can send the target length to the controller of the lawnmower or the controller of the trimming accessory. The controller of the lawnmower or the controller of the trimming accessory can then control the release of the trimming rope based on the target length. Optionally, the target length here can be the target release length, or the target total length at the end of the trimming rope release. The controller of the lawnmower or the controller of the trimming accessory can execute different control logics to achieve either releasing the target length or releasing to the target length.

[0200] When the target length is the target release length, the terminal device does not need to transmit this information to the controller. The terminal device can determine the second target rotation information and continuously send the second target rotation information to the controller through a polling interface, so that the controller can control the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate based on the second target rotation information. The second target rotation information is the rotation speed corresponding to different times. For details, please refer to the execution process of this part on the controller side of the lawnmower, which will not be elaborated here.

[0201] By sending the target length to the lawnmower's controller or the edge trimming accessory's controller via the terminal device, users can set the length information for the release of the trimming rope, improving the user experience. By sending the second target rotation information directly to the lawnmower's controller or the edge trimming accessory's controller, the controller can avoid performing calculations of rotation speed and rotation duration, simplifying the controller's execution logic and improving the lawnmower's response speed.

[0202] Optionally, if the target operation is when the rope release function control is triggered for an extended period of time, the method further includes:

[0203] The system receives a prompt message from the controller of the lawnmower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory; the prompt message indicates that the rope release time is longer than a preset time, or that the rope release length is greater than the maximum release length.

[0204] The prompt message is displayed on the third interactive interface.

[0205] When continuously releasing the rope by pressing and holding the rope release function control on the terminal device, the release length corresponds to the length of time the button is held down. If the user presses and holds the rope release function control for too long, the controller will stop releasing the rope to prevent it from becoming too long.

[0206] Optionally, the controller can detect the rope release time or rope release length. If the rope release time exceeds the preset time or the rope release length exceeds the maximum release length, the controller can stop releasing the rope and send a prompt message to the terminal device. The terminal device can then display the prompt message on the third interactive interface, allowing the user to know the reason for stopping the rope release.

[0207] Optionally, the terminal device can also detect the duration for which the user presses the rope release function control. If the duration exceeds the preset duration, it can send a stop rope release command to the controller, which will then stop releasing the rope based on the command. It can also display a prompt message on the third interactive interface.

[0208] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of a third interactive interface provided in an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the third interactive interface can display a prompt message that "the rope length has reached the maximum length released in a single operation".

[0209] By displaying prompts on the terminal device indicating that the rope release time is longer than the preset time or that the rope release length is greater than the maximum release length, users can determine the current rope release status, thus improving the user experience.

[0226] The first sending module is used to generate and send a notification message to the terminal device if the current length is less than a first preset length, so that the user can determine whether to trigger the generation of the rope release control command.

[0227] Optionally, when the control module 701 controls the edge-trimming motor to drive the edge-trimming head to rotate in order to control the release of the straw-trimming rope, it is specifically used for:

[0228] The edge-trimming motor is controlled to rotate the edge-trimming head according to preset rotation information, thereby controlling the release of the straw rope; the preset rotation information is related to the preset release length.

[0229] Alternatively, while controlling the edge-trimming motor to drive the edge-trimming head to rotate, the force feedback information of the edge-trimming head during rotation is determined; when the force feedback information is greater than or equal to a preset resistance, the edge-trimming motor is controlled to stop driving the edge-trimming head to rotate, so as to control the release of the straw rope; the preset resistance is related to the maximum allowable length of the straw rope.

[0230] Optionally, the device further includes:

[0231] The first receiving module is used to receive the target length sent by the terminal device; the target length is set by the user.

[0232] Accordingly, the target length is the target release length; when the control module 701 controls the edge-trimming motor to drive the edge-trimming head to rotate in order to control the release of the straw rope, it is specifically used for:

[0233] The edge-trimming motor is controlled to rotate the edge-trimming head according to the first target rotation information, so as to control the release of the straw rope; the first target rotation information is related to the target release length;

[0246] Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of a setting device provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The device is applied to a terminal device and includes:

[0247] The first display module 801 is used to display the first interactive interface, which is used for the user to perform the target operation.

[0248] The generation module 802 is used to generate a rope release control command when the user performs the target operation, and send the rope release control command to the controller of the lawnmower or the controller of the edge trimming accessory.

[0249] The edge trimming accessory is detachably mounted on the lawnmower and includes an edge trimming motor, an edge trimming head, and a trimming rope. The controller is connected to the edge trimming motor. The rope release control command is used to control the edge trimming motor to drive the edge trimming head to rotate, thereby controlling the release of the trimming rope.

[0254] Optionally, the device further includes:
