Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of intelligent cleaning technology, and in particular to a heating control method, heating system, and cleaning equipment for cleaning devices. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most mainstream cleaning equipment, such as floor scrubbers and mops, supports wet mopping to improve cleanliness. However, for stubborn stains such as solidified grease, heated cleaning is a more efficient solution. Heated cleaning typically involves a built-in hot water tank that periodically drips hot water onto the cleaning components through a system control, keeping them moist and achieving a heating effect.

[0003] However, due to the difficulty in ensuring that hot water is available for the entire 15 to 20 minutes of cleaning time, and the limited drip volume and rapid heat loss of the cleaning equipment, the cleaning components can usually only be heated and cleaned during the first drip cycle.

Detailed Implementation

[0032] The technical solution of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0033] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0034] In this invention, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "top," and "bottom" are generally used in relation to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or in relation to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction of the component itself; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not intended to limit this invention.

[0035] Existing cleaning equipment, when using heated cleaning, experiences a significant decrease in cleaning effectiveness as cleaning time increases, failing to effectively remove stubborn stains. Therefore, to address the problem of cleaning equipment's inability to continuously perform heated cleaning, this invention proposes a heating control method, a heating system, and the cleaning equipment itself.

[0036] To better illustrate this, we will first introduce the cleaning equipment provided in the embodiments of the present invention. This cleaning equipment can be a mobile device with cleaning functions, such as a sweeping robot, a floor scrubber, a sweeping and mopping robot, or a robotic vacuum cleaner.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of a cleaning device provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The cleaning device includes at least a body 110, a cleaning component 120, a heating system 130 for the cleaning device, and a controller (not shown in the figure).

[0038] The housing 110 typically has a cavity structure. The exterior of the housing 110 has mounting slots, holes, and other mounting structures for installing the cleaning component 120, allowing the cleaning component 120 to be mounted on the housing 110. Various sensors, such as temperature sensors, humidity sensors, vision sensors, and laser sensors, can also be installed as needed. The interior of the housing 110 is planned with multiple mounting areas for accommodating internal processing circuits, motor structures, water tanks, and other components.

[0039] The type and quantity of cleaning components 120 are not unique. Depending on the cleaning requirements, the cleaning equipment may include various types of cleaning components, which may be detachably or non-detachably mounted on the main body 110. Under the cleaning requirement of heated cleaning shown in the embodiment of the present invention, the cleaning components 120 may include side brush assemblies, roller brush assemblies, wiping cloth assemblies, etc., which may be detachably or non-detachably mounted on the main body 110.

[0040] The heating system 130 of the cleaning equipment includes an information acquisition module 131, a control module 132, and an electromagnetic induction execution module 133. The information acquisition module 131 acquires information related to the heating requirements of the cleaning component. The control module 132 is connected to the information acquisition module and generates a control signal based on the information. The electromagnetic induction execution module 133 is connected to the control module. The information acquisition module 131 and the control module 132 are implemented as circuits and can be integrated into the aforementioned internal processing circuit. The electromagnetic induction execution module 133 can be installed in multiple planned installation areas inside the body 110, or it can be installed outside the body 110 via an installation structure. The electromagnetic induction execution module 133, in response to the control signal, generates heat energy through electromagnetic induction and transfers it to the cleaning component 120. Therefore, Figure 2 The heating system 130 of the cleaning equipment shown is a heating system based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. Figure 1 The cleaning equipment shown is equipped with a heating system based on the principle of electromagnetic induction.

[0041] The controller is configured to execute the heating control method for the cleaning equipment. The controller can also be integrated into the internal processing circuitry to acquire various data from the cleaning equipment, process complex operating conditions and environmental information according to the heating control method, and ultimately generate information related to the heating requirements of the cleaning components.

[0042] It should be noted that the data from the cleaning equipment can be sensor information collected by various sensors, operating status information of other internal processing circuits, such as the driving circuit of the drive motor, the power management circuit of the overall power regulation and supply, and other functional circuits. Information related to the heating requirements of the cleaning components can be sent to the information acquisition module 131 of the heating system 130 of the aforementioned cleaning equipment. The control module 132 then generates a control signal based on this information. The control signal is used to control the electromagnetic induction execution module 133 to perform a heating operation on the cleaning components 120. The electromagnetic induction execution module generates heat energy through electromagnetic induction and transfers it to the cleaning components to complete the heating operation.

[0043] Optionally, the electromagnetic induction execution module includes a magnetic field generating device and a magnetic field sensing device. There is no physical electrical connection between the magnetic field sensing device and the magnetic field generating device, and the energy between the two is coupled and transferred through a spatial alternating magnetic field.

[0044] The cleaning device of this invention includes a heating system that generates heat energy through electromagnetic induction to heat the cleaning components. This system offers advantages such as high space utilization and low-power continuous heating. Functionally, a controller processes complex operating conditions and environmental information, extracts information related to the heating requirements of the cleaning components, and integrates this information into preset heating trigger conditions for precise control of the heating system's start and stop. This combination of hardware and software achieves an intelligent heating strategy focused on improving cleaning effectiveness.

[0045] The heating control method for the cleaning equipment provided in the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. Figure 3 This is a flowchart of a heating control method for a cleaning device provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The embodiment of the present invention uses this method for... Figure 1 The method will be illustrated using the controller of the cleaning equipment shown as an example. The method includes, but is not limited to, the following steps: S201. Based on the operating condition information and environmental information obtained by the cleaning equipment, determine whether the preset heating triggering conditions are met. S202. When the heating triggering condition is met, control the heating system based on the electromagnetic induction principle to perform a heating operation on the cleaning part.

[0046] In step S201 above, the cleaning equipment obtains operating condition information and environmental information in the following ways: acquiring sensor information collected by various sensors and / or operating status information of various internal processing circuits, and processing the sensor information and operating status information to obtain operating condition information and environmental information.

[0047] In one embodiment of the cleaning equipment of the present invention, the sensors include, but are not limited to, humidity sensors, temperature sensors, and vision sensors. Sensor information includes, but is not limited to, the humidity of the cleaning component, the surface temperature of the cleaning component, and environmental images. The internal processing circuit includes at least a power management circuit. Operating condition information includes whether the cleaning component is wet, the surface temperature of the cleaning component, and the operating status of the cleaning equipment. Specifically, the humidity of the cleaning component is processed, such as through threshold comparison, to obtain operating condition information regarding whether the cleaning component is wet; the surface temperature of the cleaning component is processed, such as through threshold comparison, to obtain operating condition information regarding the surface temperature of the cleaning component; and the operating status information of the power management circuit is processed, such as through electrical signal recognition, to obtain operating condition information regarding the operating status of the cleaning equipment. Environmental information includes the degree of dirtiness in the working area of ​​the cleaning equipment and the types of stains included in the working area. Environmental images are processed, such as through visual map construction, target detection, and recognition, to obtain the aforementioned environmental information.

[0048] Through the above steps S201 and S202, the controller and its heating control method for cleaning equipment provided in this embodiment of the invention can process complex working conditions and environmental information, extract information related to the heating requirements of the cleaning parts, and integrate it into preset heating trigger conditions for precise control of the start and stop of the heating system. This can ensure the cleaning effect of the cleaning equipment for long-term heating and cleaning, and significantly reduce ineffective energy consumption, thereby achieving fast and accurate on-demand heating.

[0049] In this embodiment of the invention, the preset heating triggering condition can be set according to one or more working condition information, according to one working condition information and one environmental information, or according to multiple working condition information and one environmental information. There is no limitation here, as long as it can represent the real-time heating requirements of the cleaning parts.

[0050] Considering that in practical applications, heating dry cleaning parts is unlikely to achieve the desired cleaning effect, the requirement that the cleaning parts be in a wet state can be a preset heating trigger condition based on this condition, or it can be a prerequisite for using the heating control method of the cleaning equipment in this embodiment of the invention. This avoids ineffective heating of dry surfaces, ensures the effectiveness of the heating operation, improves cleaning efficiency, optimizes energy utilization, and guarantees the rationality and safety of the heating system's operation.

[0051] Based on this, one embodiment of the heating control method for the cleaning equipment of the present invention further includes: S203. Before or during the heating operation, verify whether the cleaning component is wet, and decide whether to continue or adjust the heating operation based on the verification result.

[0052] In one feasible approach, the humidity of the cleaning component is used to verify whether it is wet. For example, the humidity sensor is mounted externally on the cleaning equipment, close to the cleaning component. Before or during the heating operation, a first value representing the humidity of the cleaning component is read from the humidity sensor. If the first value is greater than a preset humidity threshold, the cleaning component is considered wet. In practical applications, the humidity sensor reading is between 0 and 1023. When the first value is greater than 800, the verification result is that the cleaning component is wet.

[0053] In one embodiment, the operating condition information and environmental information include the working status of the cleaning equipment, and the preset heating trigger condition includes at least one of the cleaning equipment being in a cleaning state or a charging state, thereby setting the preset heating trigger condition based on the core operating condition information of the cleaning equipment's working status.

[0054] The system uses the cleaning equipment being in a cleaning state as a preset heating trigger condition, so that the cleaning equipment can continuously heat the cleaning parts during the cleaning process, ensuring that heating cleaning can be achieved within a 15 to 20 minute cleaning time, thus significantly improving the cleaning effect.

[0055] By setting the cleaning device's charging state as a preset heating trigger condition, preheating of the cleaning components can be achieved, making them readily available and reducing the battery consumption of the heating system. Considering that cleaning devices are typically charged at a base station, and the base station's output power is higher than the device's battery, a preferred implementation involves the base station charging the cleaning device providing enhanced power to the electromagnetic induction-based heating system while the cleaning device is charging. This allows the electromagnetic induction-based heating system to operate at a higher power than when powered solely by the device's battery, achieving efficient heating and rapid preheating.

[0056] In one feasible approach, the operating status information of the power management circuit is processed to obtain the operating status information of the cleaning equipment. This processing includes electrical signal recognition. The operating status information includes status signals from the power management circuit, real-time voltage and current data, etc., which reflects the overall, real-time operating status of the power management circuit, and thus indicates whether the cleaning equipment is in a cleaning state, charging state, or standby state.

[0057] It should be noted that the power management circuit can switch the power supply path. When the cleaning equipment is in cleaning mode, the power management circuit draws power from the equipment battery to distribute power to each power-consuming unit of the cleaning equipment, including traditional functional components such as the drive circuit of the drive motor, as well as the heating system based on the electromagnetic induction principle in this embodiment of the invention. When the cleaning equipment is in charging mode, the power management circuit draws power from the base station and charges the equipment battery. At this time, some functional modules of the cleaning equipment can still draw power and operate normally. Under this condition, the power management circuit simultaneously realizes the power distribution of each power-consuming unit of the cleaning equipment, so that the heating system based on the electromagnetic induction principle can directly draw power from the base station and operate in high-power mode. In one feasible solution, the cleaning equipment is provided with a high-power charging and signal interaction contact on the equipment side, and the base station is provided with a corresponding high-power power supply and signal interaction contact on the base station side. When the cleaning equipment returns to the base station, the high-power charging and signal interaction contact on the equipment side and the high-power power supply and signal interaction contact on the base station side are physically connected. The system detects the connection status of the high-power charging and signal interaction contact on the equipment side. If it is detected that the two have been reliably connected and the cleaning equipment is in a charging state, a power supply path switching signal is generated. The power management circuit responds to the switching signal and completes the switching of the internal power supply path.

[0058] In one embodiment, when the cleaning device is in a cleaning state, the preset heating trigger condition further includes at least one of the following: (a) The work area was identified as a heavily polluted area; (b) Identify solidified or dried stains in the work area.

[0059] Based on this, the preset heating triggering conditions include the cleaning equipment being in a clean state and the work area being identified as a heavily contaminated area, and the cleaning equipment being in a clean state and the presence of solidified or dried stains in the work area. This approach simultaneously considers both operational and environmental information, leading to a more refined heating triggering strategy.

[0060] The preset heating triggering condition shown in (a) above corresponds to the environmental information of the degree of dirt in the working area of ​​the cleaning equipment, and the preset heating triggering condition shown in (b) above corresponds to the environmental information of the type of stains included in the working area.

[0061] In one feasible approach, determining the working area type of the cleaning equipment includes: extracting and tracking feature points in environmental images, such as corners, furniture edges, and floor textures; analyzing the changes of these feature points in consecutive frames to calculate the movement trajectory and current position of the cleaning equipment. Based on this, in the first approach, an offline map can be used to determine pre-stored map markers for the current position; the degree of dirtiness in the working area is judged based on these pre-stored map markers, which can be user-defined or extracted from historical cleaning data of the same working area. For example, the pre-stored map markers could be kitchen, bedroom, living room, etc., with the kitchen corresponding to a heavily polluted area. In the second approach, after obtaining the current position of the cleaning equipment, real-time image analysis can be performed based on the environmental images to identify dirt features, such as oil stains and dust, and by quantifying the density, area, and contrast of the dirt features, it can be determined whether it is a heavily polluted area.

[0062] In one feasible approach, determining the type of stains included in a work area can be achieved using two technical approaches: one is to capture and compare environmental images in real time, such as analyzing abrupt changes in color distribution and texture structure, to determine whether the stains are solidified stains, dried stains, or other stains; the other is to use infrared or spectral sensors to directly identify the material composition of the stains to determine whether the stains are solidified stains, dried stains, or other stains.

[0063] The aforementioned preset heating trigger conditions are based on the operating condition information that the cleaning equipment is in a clean state, to determine the necessity of heating cleaning, and then combined with heavily polluted areas and specific stain types, to increase the priority of heating cleaning under these two environmental conditions, so as to dynamically adjust the heating strategy according to the priority.

[0064] In this embodiment of the invention, the heating strategy is embodied in the heating operation shown in step S202 above.

[0065] In one embodiment, dynamically adjusting the heating strategy for heavily polluted areas includes: When the work area is identified as a heavily contaminated area, the heating operation includes controlling the heating system to work continuously or intermittently until the cleaning task for the area is completed.

[0066] Continuous operation of the heating system indicates that the cleaning equipment continuously operates the heating system in heavily polluted areas, without interrupting the heating of the cleaning components during the cleaning process. This ensures that the surface temperature of the cleaning components approaches the upper limit of the preset temperature range, guaranteeing effective heating and cleaning within a cleaning duration of 15 to 20 minutes. Intermittent operation of the heating system indicates that the heating system may stop during the cleaning process after being turned on. Intermittent operation can be achieved by setting a fixed cycle or responding to external control signals. External control signals refer to physical or logical signals that can carry or represent various operating condition and environmental information related to the heating needs of the cleaning components.

[0067] In practical applications, the current location of the cleaning equipment is constantly being monitored. Therefore, whether the cleaning task for the area has been completed can be determined by checking whether the current location of the cleaning equipment has left the heavily polluted area using an offline map; or by checking changes in pre-stored map markers to determine whether the cleaning equipment has left the heavily polluted area, and thus whether the cleaning task for the area has been completed.

[0068] In one embodiment, dynamically adjusting the heating strategy for specific stain types, such as hardened stains and dried stains, includes: When solidified or dried stains are detected in the work area, the heating operation includes: controlling the heating system to start and turning it off after cleaning the stains.

[0069] The heating system operates continuously or intermittently after startup, aiming to remove stains effectively. When operating continuously, the cleaning equipment repeatedly wipes identified solidified or dried stains, acquiring environmental images of the same locations. The heating system shuts off once the number of wiping actions reaches a preset value or after a wiping action is completed and the acquired environmental image shows stain removal. Alternatively, the heating system can operate intermittently: it activates when solidified or dried stains are detected in the work area and shuts off after heating is complete. This short-term heating of the cleaning components allows for rapid, localized cleaning, achieving both improved cleaning efficiency and reduced long-term power consumption.

[0070] The embodiments of the present invention also explain how to perform heating operations based on other preset heating triggering conditions, such as preset heating triggering conditions set according to working condition information of whether the cleaning part is in a wet state, and preset heating triggering conditions set according to working condition information of the surface temperature of the cleaning part, as not shown in the above embodiments.

[0071] In one embodiment, performing the heating operation includes controlling the heating system to operate in an intermittent mode. The intermittent mode refers to the heating system starting and stopping regularly or irregularly when heating trigger conditions are met. Regular starting and stopping can be achieved by setting a fixed cycle, where the heating system starts during certain periods and stops during the remaining periods within that cycle. Irregular starting and stopping typically relies on external control signals, which are physical or logical signals that can carry or represent various operating condition and environmental information related to the heating requirements of the cleaning components, such as user commands, sensor readings from temperature and humidity sensors, and scene recognition signals from visual sensors. The intermittent mode prevents problems such as excessively high hardware temperatures and overly dry cleaning components caused by continuous heating, thus reducing cleaning effectiveness and effectively lowering energy consumption.

[0072] In a preferred implementation, the intermittent operating mode is achieved by responding to an external control signal, including: continuously monitoring the surface temperature of the cleaning component, and starting or stopping the heating system to maintain the surface temperature within the preset temperature range based on a comparison of the surface temperature with a preset temperature range.

[0073] For example, a temperature sensor is installed on the exterior of the cleaning device, close to the item being cleaned. During the heating operation, the start / stop function based on the comparison result includes: turning off the heating system when the surface temperature is higher than the upper limit of the preset temperature range; and starting the heating system when the surface temperature is lower than the lower limit of the preset temperature range. In practical applications, the temperature sensor reading is between 0 and 100, the upper limit of the preset temperature range can be 50°C, and the lower limit of the preset temperature range can be 40°C. Thus, heating the washing machine can maintain the surface temperature of the item being cleaned within the preset temperature range of 40°C to 50°C.

[0074] Considering that the intermittent working mode will frequently start and stop the heating system, making it difficult to maintain the surface temperature of the cleaned parts at a high temperature, the following heating strategy is proposed.

[0075] In one embodiment, performing the heating operation includes: controlling the heating system to operate at a first power in the initial stage of heating, and switching to a second power lower than the first power after a preset condition is reached.

[0076] The preset condition can be the surface temperature of the cleaning part. In the initial stage of heating, the heating system operates at a higher first power to quickly heat the cleaning part. When the surface temperature of the cleaning part rises to a certain temperature value, such as the upper limit of the preset temperature range mentioned above, the heating system switches to a second power lower than the first power. Thus, the surface temperature of the cleaning part is always higher than the lower limit of the preset temperature range, and finally the surface temperature of the cleaning part is maintained within the preset temperature range and close to the upper limit of the preset temperature range.

[0077] The preset condition can also be the start-up time of the heating system. In the initial stage of heating, the heating system runs at a higher first power to quickly heat the cleaning part. After the start-up time reaches the preset time, the heating system switches to a second power lower than the first power. This can also maintain the surface temperature of the cleaning part within the preset temperature range and close to the upper limit of the preset temperature range.

[0078] In one embodiment, performing the heating operation includes: monitoring the real-time temperature of the cleaning component during heating; Based on the comparison between the real-time temperature and the preset temperature threshold, the heating system is controlled to start and stop, so as to maintain the temperature of the cleaning component within the target range.

[0079] The preset temperature threshold can be the upper limit of the preset temperature range, the lower limit of the preset temperature range, or both. When the preset temperature threshold includes only one value, the above steps, controlling the start / stop based on the comparison result, include: starting the heating system when the real-time temperature is lower than the preset temperature threshold; and turning off the heating system when the real-time temperature is higher than the preset temperature threshold, thereby maintaining the temperature of the cleaning component near the preset temperature threshold. When the preset temperature threshold includes multiple values, the above steps, through which the temperature of the cleaning component can be maintained within the target range corresponding to the preset temperature threshold, taking the first temperature threshold and the second temperature threshold as examples, controlling the start / stop based on the comparison result includes: starting the heating system when the real-time temperature is lower than the first temperature threshold; and turning off the heating system when the real-time temperature is higher than the second temperature threshold; wherein the second temperature threshold is higher than the first temperature threshold.

Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the composition of the heating system of the cleaning equipment provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the implementation structure of the electromagnetic induction execution module provided in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0081] like Figure 2As shown, the heating system 130 of the cleaning equipment includes an information acquisition module 131, a control module 132, and an electromagnetic induction execution module 133. The information acquisition module 131 acquires information related to the heating requirements of the cleaning component and may include various sensors such as temperature sensors, humidity sensors, vision sensors, and laser sensors, or it may be a data acquisition device that directly retrieves sensor information from the aforementioned sensors. The control module 132 is connected to the information acquisition module and generates control signals based on the information. Its core is a computing unit that implements the control logic, typically implemented by programmable embedded hardware, such as a microcontroller, microprocessor, or digital signal processor. The electromagnetic induction execution module 133 is connected to the control module 132 and, in response to the control signal, generates heat energy through electromagnetic induction and transfers it to the cleaning component 120.

[0082] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the electromagnetic induction execution module 133 includes a magnetic field generating device 1331 and a magnetic field induction device 1332. The magnetic field generating device 1331, when an alternating current, such as I, is applied... AC When an alternating magnetic field is generated, a magnetic field induction device 1332 is placed within the range of the alternating magnetic field. Under the induction of the alternating magnetic field, eddy currents are generated, causing heat to be produced. The magnetic field generating device 1331 and the magnetic field induction device 1332 are arranged spatially opposite to each other, so that the heat generated by the magnetic field induction device 1332 can be used to heat a cleaning component.

[0083] It should be noted that, due to the presence of alternating current in the magnetic field generating device 1331, the charge distribution along the path of the alternating current changes rapidly, causing the electric field in space to change with time. According to the Ampere-Maxwell law, this changing electric field contributes to and maintains the aforementioned alternating magnetic field.

[0084] It should be noted that since the magnetic field induction device 1332 is located within the range of the alternating magnetic field, at least a portion of the alternating magnetic field passes through the magnetic field induction device 1332, thereby causing free electrons inside the magnetic field induction device 1332 to move, forming vortex-shaped currents, i.e., eddy currents. Since the magnetic field induction device 1332 itself has resistance, the eddy currents in the conductor generate energy loss in the form of heat; that is, the magnetic field induction device 1332 generates eddy currents and heats up under the induction of the alternating magnetic field.

[0085] The heating system 130 of the cleaning equipment provided in this embodiment of the invention achieves dual optimization of space occupancy and cleaning effect. On the one hand, a heating system for the cleaning component is established based on the electromagnetic coupling relationship between a magnetic field generating device and a magnetic field induction device. The magnetic field induction device generates eddy currents in an alternating magnetic field and generates heat, thereby heating a cleaning component. Furthermore, the magnetic field generating device and the magnetic field induction device are spatially opposite each other, and the heating of the magnetic field induction device will not dry the cleaning component, allowing the cleaning component to be continuously heated and cleaned. On the other hand, the magnetic field generating device and the magnetic field induction device can usually be designed as highly integrated and ultra-thin, occupying almost no internal space of the equipment.

[0086] The heating system 130 of the cleaning equipment provided in this embodiment of the invention allows for the spatial relationship between the magnetic field induction device 1332 and the magnetic field generating device 1331 to be set as needed. The aim is for the magnetic field induction device 1332 to be within the range of the alternating magnetic field, generating eddy currents and thus heating, preferably capable of heating a cleaning component. In specific applications, the magnetic field induction device 1332 can be moved while spatially positioned relative to the magnetic field generating device 1331, thereby changing the overlap between the orthographic projection of the magnetic field induction device 1332 onto the magnetic field generating device 1331 and the magnetic field generating device 1331. This overlap can be non-overlapping, partially overlapping, or completely overlapping. However, if there is no overlap, almost no alternating magnetic field passes through the magnetic field induction device 1332, making it difficult for the magnetic field induction device 1332 to generate eddy currents and thus heat. Therefore, as... Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of the electromagnetic induction execution module 133 of the present invention, the orthographic projections of the magnetic field induction device 1332 onto the magnetic field generating device 1331 at least partially overlap, thereby allowing at least a portion of the alternating magnetic field to pass through the magnetic field induction device 1332, satisfying the necessary conditions for eddy current generation and ensuring the normal operation of the cleaning component heating system. Furthermore, in order for the heat to heat the cleaning component, such as... Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment of the electromagnetic induction execution module 133 of the present invention, the orthographic projection of the magnetic field induction device 1332 falls completely within the range of the magnetic field generating device 1331, so that the alternating magnetic field generated by the magnetic field generating device 1331 passes through the magnetic field induction device 1332 in a large amount and effectively, thereby enabling the cleaning component heating system to achieve the highest heating efficiency.

[0087] In practical applications, the magnetic field generating device 1331 can be implemented using a magnetic induction coil. The planar shape of the magnetic induction coil can be circular or square, and its form can be selected according to the type of cleaning component. For example, when the cleaning component is a roller brush assembly, the magnetic field sensing device 1332 uses a three-dimensional induction coil; when the cleaning component is a wiping cloth assembly, the magnetic field sensing device 1332 uses a planar spiral coil. The shape of the magnetic field sensing device 1332 can be the same as or different from that of the magnetic field generating device 1331; this is not limited here. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment of the electromagnetic induction execution module 133 of the present invention, both the magnetic field generating device 1331 and the magnetic field induction device 1332 have a flat structure. The magnetic field generating device 1331 includes a magnetic induction coil, and the magnetic field induction device 1332 includes a metal conductor plate. On the one hand, the magnetic induction coil is easy to generate a locally concentrated magnetic field; on the other hand, the structure of the magnetic induction coil and the metal conductor plate is simple and can be integrated into a small device, reducing the space occupied by the heating system of the cleaning equipment inside the cleaning equipment. The working principle of the cleaning part heating system is as follows: the magnetic induction coil is connected to alternating current to generate an alternating magnetic field; when the metal conductor plate is close to the magnetic induction coil, it is within the range of action of the alternating magnetic field and generates eddy currents under the induction of the alternating magnetic field, thereby generating heat. The heat generated by the metal conductor plate can be used to heat a cleaning part.

[0088] In practical applications, a straight conductor carrying alternating current will also generate an alternating magnetic field around it. When a metal conductor plate is within this field, eddy currents will also be generated, but this effect is extremely weak. Therefore, the aforementioned magnetic induction coil can be any structure capable of strengthening and concentrating the alternating magnetic field, causing the metal conductor plate to generate eddy currents and heat up. In a preferred implementation, the magnetic induction coil is made of multi-turn wire. The aforementioned magnetic induction coil structure, through the synergistic enhancement of the magnetic field using high-turn winding and multi-winding combinations, achieves high space utilization efficiency and significantly improves electromagnetic conversion efficiency. It is an optimized solution for achieving high efficiency and a small-volume design in the heating system of the cleaning equipment of this invention.

[0089] In practical applications, the resistivity and conductivity of the metal conductor plate determine the intensity of the eddy currents. High resistivity materials can more efficiently convert eddy current energy into heat, indicating that high conductivity materials have lower requirements for external magnetic fields. When the alternating magnetic field is weak, the high resistivity material can respond internally and form an enhanced internal magnetic field. The rate of change of magnetic flux in this internal magnetic field increases sharply, resulting in a multiple increase in the intensity of the induced eddy currents. Therefore, in one embodiment of the magnetic field induction device 1332 of this invention, the metal conductor plate is made of a ferromagnetic material. The excellent electromagnetic coupling characteristics of ferromagnetic materials significantly improve the electromagnetic conversion efficiency.

[0090] According to the above embodiments, the electromagnetic induction execution module 133 can be disposed in multiple installation areas planned inside the housing 110, or it can be disposed outside the housing 110 via an installation structure. Figure 4 and Figure 5The electromagnetic induction execution module 133 shown has a magnetic field generator 1331 installed in multiple designated areas within the body 110. Considering the space utilization within the body 110, when the magnetic field generator 1331 has a flat structure like a magnetic coil, it is preferable that it be fixed to the inner wall of the body 110. Regarding the installation of the magnetic field sensor 1332, considering that the cleaning component 120 typically needs to be in close contact with the ground to complete the cleaning operation, the magnetic field sensor 1332 is nested within the cleaning component 120. This ensures that when the cleaning component 120 is in contact with the ground, the magnetic field sensor 1332 remains relatively stationary with respect to the cleaning component 120, making the position of the magnetic field sensor 1332 controllable. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, taking the cleaning component 120 as an example of a mop assembly, the cleaning component 120 includes a mop 121 and an annular bracket 122 for supporting the mop 121. The magnetic field sensing device 1332 is embedded in the annular bracket 122 and covered by the mop 121. Figure 7 As shown, the magnetic field sensing device 1332 may include a metal conductor plate made of a ferromagnetic material, and the shape of the metal conductor plate is adapted to the cleaning component 120, therefore, in Figure 7 In this context, the metal conductor plate has a shape and size that can be embedded within the annular support 122.

[0091] In the cleaning device of the present invention embodiment, in order to achieve heated cleaning, the cleaning device continuously or intermittently drips hot water or cleaning liquid onto the cleaning component 120, thereby providing a liquid flow channel on the cleaning component 120 caused by the dripping hot water. If the magnetic induction unit coincides with this liquid flow channel, it will hinder the dripping hot water or cleaning liquid from acting on the cleaning component 120. Therefore, in one embodiment of the magnetic field induction device 1332 of the present invention, the shape and size of the magnetic field induction device 1332 are configured to avoid the liquid flow channel on the annular support 122, preventing the magnetic field induction device 1332 (metal ring) from blocking the water supply channel on the annular support 122, ensuring that the cleaning liquid or water can drip smoothly onto the mop 121, and achieving that heating and water supply do not interfere with each other.

[0092] for Figure 7 The circular bracket 122 shown is preferably shaped as a circular ring concentric with the circular bracket 122. This is the most reasonable and material-saving shape. Therefore, given that the magnetic field sensing device 1332 is set to be embedded in the circular bracket 122, its size can also be configured to avoid the water supply area of ​​the circular bracket 122.

[0093] According to the above embodiments, the heating system of the cleaning equipment performs heating operations under the instruction of the controller. The controller implements the heating control method for the cleaning equipment, setting heating trigger conditions based on complex operating and environmental information. Therefore, the heating operation under different heating trigger conditions involves adjustments in heating timing, heating duration, and heating power. To achieve the aforementioned complex heating operations, adapt to the heating needs of different cleaning scenarios, and improve the cleaning effect of heated cleaning, such as... Figure 8 As shown, in one embodiment of the heating system 130 of the cleaning equipment of the present invention, a power adjustment module 134 is further included, which is used to adjust the operating parameters of the magnetic field generating device 1331 according to the instructions of the control module 132, so as to change the heating power of the magnetic field sensing device 1332.

[0094] In practical applications, the heating power of a magnetic field induction device is affected by various factors, mainly including alternating current parameters, the relative positional relationship between the magnetic field generator and the induction device, and the electromagnetic properties of the magnetic field generator itself. Accordingly, the operating parameters of the magnetic field generator can be categorized into two main types: electrical parameters and mechanical parameters.

[0095] In a preferred implementation, the power adjustment module adjusts the operating parameters of the magnetic field generator in at least one of the following ways: (a) Change the relative position between the magnetic field generating device and the magnetic field sensing device; (b) Adjust the alternating current parameters input to the magnetic field generator; (c) Switching between multiple magnetic field generating devices with different electromagnetic parameters.

[0096] Method (a) involves adjusting the operating parameters of the magnetic field generator through mechanical adjustment. This mechanical adjustment method enables continuous, smooth, stepless power regulation and offers advantages such as simple structure and low cost. In practical applications, the magnetic field generator can be installed on a liftable mechanism at the bottom of the machine body, while the magnetic field induction device is fixed inside the cleaning component. During cleaning, the magnetic field generator descends, approaching or pressing against the ferromagnetic heating element on the rotating mop disc for efficient coupling heating. When not heating or in the retracted state, the device rises and separates from the heating element, thus avoiding structural interference. This design ensures that the cleaning component maintains normal contact with the ground during heating, and the cleaning operation is unaffected.

[0097] like Figure 7As shown in the schematic diagram of the heating system installation of the cleaning equipment, the specific structure is further revealed: the cleaning component 120 is connected to the body 110 via a retractable central shaft 140. Specifically, one end of the central shaft 140 is fixed to the annular bracket 122 in the cleaning component 120, and the other end is rotatably connected to the bottom of the body 110. When the central shaft 140 rotates, the annular bracket 122 drives the mop 121 to rotate synchronously at high speed. The cleaning operation is completed by relying on the close contact and rotational friction between the mop 121 and the ground. Meanwhile, the diagram clearly shows that the magnetic field induction device 1332 is nested inside the cleaning component 120. Therefore, Figure 7 The structure shown uses the original structure on the fuselage 110, the central shaft 140, as a lifting mechanism, making method (a) more direct in engineering implementation and reducing complexity and cost.

[0098] In method (b), the alternating current parameters are easily adjustable in the circuit implementation. These parameters include, but are not limited to, waveform, phase, amplitude, frequency, and duty cycle. Among these, amplitude, frequency, and duty cycle have the most significant impact on the strength of the alternating magnetic field generated by the magnetic field generator, and thus directly affect the heating power of the magnetic field induction device. Therefore, in a better implementation, the power adjustment module can be configured with an adjustable drive circuit, such as a circuit based on pulse width modulation (PWM), frequency modulation, or amplitude modulation. The heating system of the cleaning equipment starts after receiving the control command from the controller. During startup, the control module dynamically adjusts the amplitude, frequency, or duty cycle of the alternating current output to the magnetic field generator through the adjustable drive circuit. According to the principle of electromagnetic induction, increasing the current amplitude or increasing the current frequency can enhance the eddy current intensity in the magnetic field induction device, thereby increasing the heating power; conversely, it reduces the heating power. Using the pure circuit control method shown in method (b) to adjust the operating parameters of the magnetic field generator to regulate the heating power of the magnetic field induction device has high control accuracy and fast response speed. It is suitable for the scenario of maintaining the temperature of the cleaning component within the target range in the above-mentioned embodiments of the heating control method for cleaning equipment.

[0099] The relationship between the heating power of the magnetic field induction device and the alternating current parameters can be described by a formula based on electromagnetic induction and Joule's law. For example, the formula is as follows: P=k·B 2 ·f·ρ Where P is the heating power of the magnetic field induction device, B is the magnetic induction intensity, B is proportional to I, i.e. B∝I, I is the effective value (amplitude) of the alternating current input to the magnetic field generator, f is the current frequency of the alternating current, ρ is the resistivity of the magnetic field induction device, and k is a comprehensive proportionality coefficient related to the coil structure, coupling coefficient, material permeability and geometric dimensions.

[0100] Based on the above formula, the heating power can be steadily increased by gradually adjusting either the current amplitude or the operating frequency until the optimal heating effect required for the cleaning operation is achieved.

[0101] For method (c), based on the flexible configuration of the number of magnetic field generating devices and magnetic field sensing devices, different magnetic field generating devices can be switched according to requirements. In one embodiment, the heating system of the cleaning equipment includes two or more magnetic field generating devices with different electromagnetic parameters, such as magnetic field generating devices with different coil turns or different magnetic core materials. The power adjustment module can be configured with a multi-channel selection switch circuit, which can be implemented as a relay array or a solid-state switch. According to the required power level, the control module controls the switch circuit to connect the corresponding magnetic field generating device. For example, switching to a high-turns coil to obtain a high power level, and switching to a low-turns coil to obtain a low power level. The above method (c) can provide multiple fixed power levels, and can realize power level switching with a large range. It is suitable for the actual application scenarios of controlling the heating system to operate at a first power or a second power in the above embodiments of the heating control method for cleaning equipment.

[0102] The quantitative relationship between the number of turns of the magnetic field generating device (magnetic coil) and the heating power of the magnetic field induction device can be described by the following formula based on the law of electromagnetic induction: P∝(N·I) 2 ·f Where P is the heating power of the magnetic field induction device, N is the number of turns of the magnetic field generator (magnetic coil), I is the effective value (amplitude) of the alternating current input to the magnetic field generator, and f is the current frequency of the alternating current.

[0103] Based on the above formula, the system can preset multiple fixed heating power levels. To achieve these levels, a magnetic field generating coil with a specific number of turns can be configured for each level; alternatively, multiple coils can be combined, i.e., connected in parallel, in series, or in a spatial array, so that a group of coils work together to achieve the target power output for that level.

[0104] In one embodiment, the heating system of the cleaning equipment further includes a power interface module for receiving enhanced power from a base station when the cleaning equipment is connected to a base station. This enhanced power supply enables the electromagnetic induction execution module to operate at a higher power than when powered solely by the device's battery, achieving efficient heating and rapid preheating. The power interface module can be the power management circuit mentioned in the above embodiments; the principle of power management circuit switching power supply paths will not be elaborated here.
