[0036] In this embodiment, an automatic cleaning device for high-rise building glass curtain walls based on a drone is provided. The operation of the drone body 1 is not restricted by the building height and can easily complete high-altitude cleaning tasks, greatly improving the flexibility and efficiency of the cleaning operation. The spray ring 7 and the atomizing nozzle 8 designed in the device are combined to evenly spray the cleaning liquid mist onto the curtain wall surface. In conjunction with the rotating cleaning ring 9 and the cleaning sheet 10, the curtain wall can be fully scrubbed, stains and dust can be effectively removed, the cleaning quality can be significantly improved, and the curtain wall can be kept as bright and clean as new. The use of the drone body 1 for operation avoids the safety hazards of manual high-altitude operations and reduces accidents. Risk, at the same time, the electric suction cup 17 equipped in the device can stably adsorb the curtain wall during the cleaning process, preventing the drone body 1 from shaking due to the cleaning reaction force, further improving the safety of the operation, the liquid level sensor 13, the ranging sensor 18, the wireless data transmission module 24 and the microprocessor 25 and other intelligent components can monitor the liquid level of the water tank 3 and the distance between the cleaning piece 10 and the curtain wall in real time, and perform intelligent control through the microprocessor 25 to ensure the safety and accuracy of the cleaning operation. The wireless data transmission module 24 also supports remote data transmission and monitoring, which is convenient for the operator to grasp the operation status in real time and realize remote control and monitoring.
[0037] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows: first, sufficient cleaning liquid is added to the water tank 3 through the replenishing pipe 12 to ensure the needs of the cleaning operation. At the same time, the drone body 1 is placed near the glass curtain wall to be cleaned, and the drone body 1 is started and flies to the designated position through its flight control system. The distance between the cleaning piece 10 and the curtain wall is measured by the distance measuring sensor 18 to ensure that the cleaning device can accurately fit and start the cleaning operation. The pump body 22 starts to work, draws cleaning liquid from the water tank 3, and transports it to the docking pipe 21 through the bellows 23. Due to the design of the bellows 23, it can effectively adapt to the length change of the cleaning ring 9 during the movement to avoid tearing. The cleaning liquid enters the stop pipe 20 through the docking pipe 21, and then enters the spray ring 7 through the input groove 19 on the connecting pipe 6. The atomizing nozzle 8 on the spray ring 7 atomizes the cleaning liquid into The water mist is evenly sprayed on the surface of the curtain wall. At the same time, the motor 5 drives the connecting pipe 6 and the spray ring 7 to rotate, driving the cleaning ring 9 and the cleaning sheet 10 to rotate together. The through groove 11 design on the cleaning sheet 10 ensures that the atomizing nozzle 8 will not be blocked, and the rotation of the cleaning sheet 10 realizes the comprehensive scrubbing of the curtain wall. During the cleaning process, the electric suction cup 17 is close to the surface of the curtain wall, providing additional adsorption force to ensure that the drone body 1 remains stable under the reaction force generated by cleaning to avoid shaking. The liquid level sensor 13 monitors the liquid level in the water tank 3 in real time to ensure that there is sufficient cleaning fluid. The wireless data transmission module 24 transmits various monitoring data such as liquid level and distance to the microprocessor 25. The microprocessor 25 accurately controls the motor 5, electric push rod 4, pump body 22 and other components according to the preset program and algorithm to realize intelligent management of the cleaning operation.
