Detailed Implementation
[0022] The technical solutions in this application will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this application. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.
[0023] The automatic pool cleaning device has multiple cleaning modes, such as pool bottom cleaning mode, pool wall cleaning mode, and water surface cleaning mode. In order to efficiently and specifically remove contaminants from different locations, the robot needs to flexibly switch between multiple cleaning modes.
[0024] To ensure that the automatic pool cleaning device can switch between different states efficiently and stably, this application provides an automatic pool cleaning device capable of cleaning a pool. The automatic pool cleaning device can be an automatic cleaning device, a pool cleaning robot, or similar device. The pool is, for example, a pool-shaped structure. The pool-shaped structure can be a swimming pool, a water storage tank, a spa pool, a water storage tank, a water storage trough, etc. This application does not limit the specific presentation of the automatic pool cleaning device or the pool-shaped structure, as long as it achieves the principles of this application. In the following description, unless otherwise specified, a robot will be used as an example of the automatic pool cleaning device, and a swimming pool will be used as an example of a pool or pool-shaped structure.
[0025] The following is combined Figures 1 to 5 The automatic water tank cleaning device 100 of this application will be described in detail. Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the overall structure of an automatic water tank cleaning device according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the internal structure of an automatic water tank cleaning device according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 3 A partially enlarged internal schematic diagram of an automatic water tank cleaning device according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the structure of a surface garbage basket according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the structure of an underwater garbage basket according to an embodiment of this application is shown. (Refer to...) Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 The automatic pool cleaning device 100 includes: a housing 110, a buoyancy component 120, a sensing component, and a controller. The housing 110 houses the buoyancy component 120, the sensing component, and the controller. The buoyancy component 120 is configured to receive manual operation from a user to change the buoyancy of the automatic pool cleaning device according to the manual operation. The sensing component is configured to output a corresponding sensing signal in response to the user's manual operation. The controller is configured to switch the cleaning mode of the automatic pool cleaning device according to the sensing signal.
[0026] The housing 110 is used to house the buoyancy component 120, the sensing component, and the controller, and the housing 110 also protects the internal components.
[0027] The buoyancy component 120 receives manual operation from the user and changes the robot's buoyancy accordingly. The user's manual operation of the buoyancy component 120 alters the robot's buoyancy. Specifically, when the robot performs cleaning tasks in water, it experiences a downward gravitational force and an upward buoyant force. When the buoyant force equals the robot's total weight—in other words, when buoyancy and gravity are balanced—the robot remains stationary in the water, i.e., it is in a relatively stable state. When the buoyant force is greater than the robot's total weight, the robot floats; and when the buoyant force is less than the robot's total weight, the robot sinks. The buoyancy component 120 can adjust the magnitude of the buoyancy force acting on the robot in the vertical direction. For example, the buoyancy component 120 can adjust the volume of water inside the robot (e.g., within the buoyancy chamber 121), thereby changing the buoyancy force and / or the weight acting on the robot. The buoyancy component 120 will be described in detail below.
[0028] Furthermore, the buoyancy assembly 120 may include a buoyancy cavity 121 and an operating element 122, the operating element 122 being configured to receive the manual operation from the user to seal or open the buoyancy cavity 121.
[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the buoyancy assembly 120 includes a buoyancy cavity 121 and an operating component 122. The buoyancy cavity 121 is hollow or substantially hollow. The operating component 122 receives manual operation from the user and applies force to the buoyancy cavity 121, thereby sealing or opening the buoyancy cavity 121. If the buoyancy cavity 121 is filled with air and is sealed, the buoyancy force experienced by the robot in water is greater than its overall weight, and the robot can float on the water surface. Conversely, if the buoyancy cavity 121 is open in a pool, it will gradually fill with water (i.e., water from the pool will gradually enter the buoyancy cavity 121), making the buoyancy force experienced by the robot less than its overall weight, and the robot can sink to the bottom of the pool.
[0030] It is understood that the above description of the buoyancy component 120 and its composition is merely exemplary. Those skilled in the art can configure the buoyancy component 120 and its composition according to actual needs, as long as the technical principles of this application can be achieved.
[0031] The sensing component is configured to output a corresponding sensing signal in response to the user's manual operation, and the controller is configured to switch the cleaning mode of the automatic pool cleaning device according to the sensing signal.
[0032] As the user manually operates the control component 122, its position changes. The sensing component outputs a corresponding sensing signal based on this position change. The controller receives the signal and switches the cleaning mode of the automatic pool cleaning device. The sensing signal can include underwater operation signals and surface operation signals, and the cleaning mode can include a surface mode and a bottom mode. In surface mode, the robot floats on the water; in bottom mode, the robot can be located at the bottom or on the pool wall. A detailed description will follow with specific embodiments.
[0033] Furthermore, the controller is used to switch the cleaning mode of the automatic pool cleaning device between the water surface mode and the pool bottom mode based on the sensing signal.
[0034] The controller controls the robot to switch between surface mode and bottom mode based on corresponding sensing signals (underwater operation signal or surface operation signal). For example, if the robot is currently in surface mode and bottom cleaning is required, the controller will switch the robot from surface mode to bottom mode. The user manually operates the actuator 122 to open the buoyancy chamber 121. As water gradually enters the buoyancy chamber 121, the robot's overall weight increases, causing it to sink to the bottom. Furthermore, the user's operation of the actuator 122 causes a change in its position (e.g., the actuator 122 rotates). Based on the current position of the actuator 122, the sensing component detects this and sends an underwater operation signal to the controller. The controller receives the underwater operation signal and controls the robot to switch to bottom mode (e.g., activating the bottom drive component 150 and deactivating the surface drive component 140), thus achieving the switch from surface mode to bottom mode.
[0035] For example, if the robot is currently in bottom mode and surface cleaning is required, the robot is switched from bottom mode to surface mode. The water in the buoyancy chamber 121 is emptied, and the user can manually operate the control component 122 to seal the buoyancy chamber 121. This reduces the robot's weight, allowing it to float on the surface. Furthermore, the change in the position of the control component 122 is detected by the sensing component, which sends a surface movement signal to the controller. The controller receives the signal and controls the robot to switch to surface mode (e.g., turning off the bottom drive component 150 and turning on the surface drive component 140), thus switching the robot from bottom mode to surface mode.
[0036] The sensing component includes a sensing element and a follower 130. The follower 130 is capable of displacement following the user's manual operation, and the sensing element outputs a corresponding sensing signal based on the displacement of the follower 130.
[0037] For example, the sensing assembly includes a sensing element and a follower 130 (such as...). Figure 3 As shown, when the user manually operates the operating element 122, the position of the operating element 122 changes, and the driven element 130 will follow the displacement of the operating element 122. For example, the user changes the state of the buoyancy cavity 121 (open or sealed) by rotating the operating element 122. At this time, the driven element 130 will also be displaced. The sensing element detects the displacement of the driven element 130 and outputs the corresponding sensing signal.
[0038] Furthermore, the follower 130 is mounted on the operating member 122 and is able to move in accordance with the operating member 122.
[0039] Continue to refer to Figure 3 The driven member 130 is, for example, a bracket, which is mounted on the operating member 122. One end of the driven member 130 is connected to the operating member 122, for example, by means of screws, clips, or other mechanical structures, to ensure that the driven member 130 closely follows the movement of the operating member 122. In other words, when the user manually operates the operating member 122, the driven member 130 will move with the operating member 122. The movement of the operating member 122 is transmitted to the driven member 130 through a mechanical connection, causing the driven member 130 to move.
[0040] Understandably, to eliminate the need for wiring and improve sealing, the sensing elements can be a Hall sensor and a magnet. The Hall sensor is installed inside the robot's sealed compartment, and the magnet is located at the other end of the driven component. When the driven component 130 moves, the magnet can move closer to or further away from the Hall sensor inside the sealed compartment. The Hall sensor outputs a corresponding sensing signal to the controller, which is also located inside the sealed compartment, based on the magnet's position, thereby enabling the robot to switch modes. By placing both the Hall sensor and the controller inside the sealed compartment, and the magnet at the other end of the driven component, the need for internal wiring is eliminated, further improving the sealing effect of the underwater robot.
[0041] It is understood that the above description of the composition and installation location of the sensing components is merely exemplary. Those skilled in the art can select the composition and installation location of the sensing components according to actual needs, as long as the technical principles of this application can be achieved.
[0042] In this application, the automatic pool cleaning device 100 may further include: a surface drive assembly 140 and a bottom drive assembly 150 (the top spray nozzle in the figure also needs to be used as a bottom drive assembly), wherein, in the surface mode, the surface drive assembly 140 is used to drive the automatic pool cleaning device 100 to move on the surface of the water; and in the bottom mode, the bottom drive assembly 150 is used to drive the automatic pool cleaning device to move underwater.
[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the robot may include a surface drive assembly 140 and a bottom drive assembly 150. The surface drive assembly 140 mainly drives the robot to move on the water surface. The surface drive assembly 140 may include a water spray device or a propeller. The water spray device or propeller is located at the tail of the robot. For example, in water surface mode, taking the water spray device as an example, the spray device may include components such as a water pump and a nozzle. The spray device draws water from the pool into the robot through the water pump, and then sprays it backward from the nozzle at a certain pressure and speed. When the water is sprayed out at high speed, a reaction force opposite to the direction of the spray is generated. This reaction force can propel the robot to move, thereby realizing the robot's movement on the water surface.
[0044] The bottom drive assembly 150 drives the robot to move underwater (in bottom mode or wall mode). The bottom drive assembly 150 may include a motor and drive wheels (or tracks). For example, in bottom mode, the drive wheels (or tracks) rotate under the drive of the motor, thereby propelling the robot to move.
[0045] The pool bottom drive assembly may also include an underwater water spray device, which is preferably located on the top of the robot. The water spray device draws water from the pool into the robot through a water pump and then sprays it out from the nozzle at a certain pressure and speed, thereby giving the robot a downward pressure so that the robot can better fit the pool bottom or pool wall during underwater movement.
[0046] Furthermore, the controller receives the sensing signal output by the sensing element. If the received sensing signal is an underwater operation signal, it controls the bottom drive component 150 of the robot to operate. If the received sensing signal is a surface operation signal, it controls the surface drive component 140 of the robot to operate.
[0047] In this application, the automatic pool cleaning device 100 may further include: a surface trash basket 170 and an underwater trash basket 180, wherein the surface trash basket 170 is suitable for the surface mode and the underwater trash basket 180 is suitable for the bottom mode.
[0048] For example, the robot may also include a surface trash can 170 and an underwater trash can 180. (See reference) Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 4 A trash can was shown on the water's surface. Figure 5An underwater trash basket is shown. The surface trash basket 170 is for surface mode and has a trash inlet at a position corresponding to the robot's direction of travel. When the robot is cleaning on the surface, trash and water flow enter the surface trash basket 170 through the trash inlet. The underwater trash basket 180 is for bottom mode (bottom cleaning mode and wall cleaning mode). The bottom of the underwater trash basket 180 has a movable water inlet baffle. When the robot is in underwater mode (bottom cleaning mode or wall cleaning mode), water flow will force open the water inlet baffle from the water inlet at the bottom of the robot, allowing trash and water to pass through the water inlet baffle and enter the underwater trash basket 180.
[0049] Furthermore, at least one of the surface trash basket 170 and the underwater trash basket 180 is configured to interfere with the automatic pool cleaning device in an inapplicable mode, thereby achieving a "foolproof" effect. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, at least a portion of the sides of both the surface trash basket 170 and / or the underwater trash basket 180 are provided with grooves, which ensures that at least one of the surface trash basket 170 and the underwater trash basket 180 will interfere with the robot when the current cleaning mode is not applicable, thereby preventing accidental operation. For example, the groove width of the surface trash basket 170 can be set to be smaller than the groove width of the underwater trash basket 180. In underwater mode, the surface trash basket 170 will interfere with the robot, preventing the surface trash basket 170 from being installed in underwater mode.
[0050] Furthermore, the automatic pool cleaning device 100 also includes a limiting member 160, which interferes with at least one of the surface trash basket 170 and the underwater trash basket 180 in response to the user's manual operation.
[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, the robot may also include a limiting member 160, which moves in response to manual operation by the user. After displacement, the limiting member 160 interferes with at least one of the surface trash basket 170 or the underwater trash basket 180.
[0052] For example, assuming the robot is currently in surface mode (i.e., the robot is floating on the water), the robot needs to use the surface trash basket 170 (instead of the underwater trash basket 180) to clean the water surface. Therefore, in surface mode, to prevent accidental installation of the underwater trash basket 180 inside the robot, a limiting member 160 is provided. Because the groove width of the surface trash basket 170 is smaller than that of the underwater trash basket 180, in surface mode, the position of the limiting member 160 matches the groove of the surface trash basket 170, so the surface trash basket 170 can be successfully installed into the robot by the user. However, in surface mode, the position of the limiting member 160 does not match the groove of the underwater trash basket 180, so the user cannot install the underwater trash basket 180 into the robot in surface mode.
[0053] Assuming the robot is currently in surface mode (i.e., floating on the water), but the user wants to switch the robot from surface mode to bottom mode (i.e., wants the robot to sink to the bottom and use the underwater trash basket 180 for cleaning), the surface trash basket 170 needs to be removed beforehand and the underwater trash basket 180 needs to be pre-installed into the robot. As mentioned above, the user manually operates the operating component 122 to switch the robot from surface mode to bottom mode. Due to the change in the position of the operating component 122, the limiting component 160 is displaced. At the same time, water in the pool slowly flows into the buoyancy chamber 121. During this period, the user can install the underwater trash basket 180 (instead of the surface trash basket 170) into the robot. In this case, because the limiting component 160 has been displaced, the surface trash basket 170 is restricted by the limiting component 160, preventing the surface trash basket 170 from being installed in place, thus preventing the user from mistakenly installing the surface trash basket 170 inside the robot.
[0054] Furthermore, the limiting member 160 is mounted on the operating member 122, and the limiting member 160 is configured to move with the operating member 122 toward or away from the installation position of the surface garbage basket 170 or the underwater garbage basket 180.
[0055] like Figure 3 As shown, the limiting member 160 is installed on the operating member 122. When the user manually operates the operating member 122, the limiting member 160 will move towards or away from the installation position of the surface trash basket 170 or the underwater trash basket 180 depending on the direction and amplitude of the operation. Taking the surface trash basket 170 as an example, when the limiting member 160 moves towards the installation position of the surface trash basket 170, the limiting member 160 will interfere with the surface trash basket 170, preventing the surface trash basket 170 from being installed in place. Conversely, when the limiting member 160 moves away from the installation position of the surface trash basket 170, the limiting member 160 will not interfere with the surface trash basket 170, and the surface trash basket 170 can be installed in place.
[0056] Understandably, the limiting component can interfere with one of the trash cans to remind the user, or it can interfere with both trash cans separately to remind the user to replace them. For example, there are two limiting components 160 in different positions, and each trash can is provided with a groove corresponding to the limiting component. The user can manually operate the operating component 122 to make different limiting components interfere with the incompatible trash cans, so that only the corresponding trash cans can be installed.
[0057] It is understood that the above description of the surface trash basket and the underwater trash basket is merely exemplary. Those skilled in the art can configure the surface trash basket and the underwater trash basket according to actual needs, as long as they can achieve the technical principles of this application.
[0058] The automatic pool cleaning device 100 provided in this application allows for manual adjustment of the buoyancy component, thereby changing the buoyancy of the automatic pool cleaning device; the sensing component responds to the manual operation and outputs a corresponding sensing signal, and the controller switches the cleaning mode (i.e., surface mode and bottom mode) of the automatic pool cleaning device according to the sensing signal. This application avoids accidental switching through the joint cooperation of the buoyancy component and the sensing component.
