The existing swimming pool cleaning robot for the swimming pool has the problem of low cleaning efficiency of the swimming pool edge due to unreasonable turning operation after colliding with the wall. In view of the above, the present application provides an improved wall-impacting turning and swimming pool edge cleaning method, apparatus, electronic device and computer storage medium for a swimming pool cleaning robot, which can solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art.
Specific embodiments of each application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a method for generating a swimming pool cleaning path according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in the figure, the present embodiment mainly includes the following steps:
and S102, controlling the swimming pool cleaning robot to move towards the wall of the swimming pool until the swimming pool cleaning robot collides with the wall of the swimming pool for the first time.
In this embodiment, the first collision is the first collision of the pool cleaning robot performing a single wall-collision turn around operation.
Alternatively, the pool cleaning robot can be controlled to travel relative to the bottom of the pool in a direction approaching the walls of the pool based on the predetermined orientation until the pool cleaning robot first impacts the walls of the pool.
And step S104, controlling the swimming pool cleaning robot to retreat relative to the swimming pool wall and adjusting the orientation until the orientation of the swimming pool cleaning robot meets the preset orientation.
Alternatively, the swimming pool cleaning robot may be controlled to retreat relative to the swimming pool walls according to a predetermined arc until a retreat direction of the swimming pool cleaning robot performing the retreat movement coincides with a predetermined direction.
And S106, controlling the swimming pool cleaning robot to move towards the wall of the swimming pool again based on the preset orientation, and turning around after the swimming pool cleaning robot collides with the wall of the swimming pool for the second time.
Optionally, the pool cleaning robot may be controlled to perform a turn around relative to the pool wall after a secondary collision with the pool wall until a turn around direction of the pool cleaning robot after performing the turn around is opposite to the predetermined direction.
To sum up, the method for turning around the wall of the swimming pool cleaning robot in the embodiment of the present application, after the swimming pool cleaning robot first hits the wall, moves back and adjusts the orientation relative to the wall, and moves towards the wall again based on the adjusted orientation, and performs turning around after hitting the wall twice, thereby, the swimming pool cleaning robot can realize the operation of turning around the wall accurately, and the safety of the operation of turning around the wall can be improved.
Fig. 2 is a process flow diagram illustrating a method of performing a wall-impacting turn around for a pool cleaning robot in accordance with another exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in the figure, the present embodiment mainly includes the following processing steps:
step S202, the pool cleaning robot is controlled to move toward the pool wall based on the preset orientation until the first collision with the pool wall occurs.
For example, referring to fig. 3A, the pool cleaning robot may be controlled to travel along the first wash path S1 relative to the pool floor in a direction approaching the pool walls based on the direction F1 until the leading side of the pool cleaning robot first impacts the pool walls.
In this embodiment, the front side of the pool cleaning robot refers to a side located on the front side of the pool cleaning robot based on the advancing direction of the pool cleaning robot.
Step S203, determining whether the position of the swimming pool cleaning robot relative to the swimming pool wall meets a preset condition, if yes, performing step S206, and if not, performing step S204.
Optionally, the pool walls comprise planar walls or curved walls.
In this embodiment, when the front side of the pool cleaning robot is parallel or substantially parallel to the pool wall, or the left and right ends of the front side of the pool cleaning robot are abutted against the pool wall, the position of the pool cleaning robot relative to the pool wall satisfies the predetermined condition.
In this embodiment, when the front side of the pool cleaning robot is parallel or substantially parallel to a tangent line of the pool wall or both the left and right ends of the front side of the pool cleaning robot abut against the pool wall in the case of the arc-shaped pool wall, it indicates that the position of the pool cleaning robot relative to the pool wall satisfies the predetermined condition (refer to the state shown in fig. 3A).
And step S204, controlling the swimming pool cleaning robot to swing the tail relative to the wall of the swimming pool until the position of the swimming pool cleaning robot relative to the wall of the swimming pool meets the preset condition.
In this embodiment, the moving inertia of the pool cleaning robot itself can be used to swing the tail relative to the pool wall, or the driving force can be applied to the pool cleaning robot to control the pool cleaning robot to swing the tail relative to the pool wall.
For example, when the wall of the swimming pool is a plane wall or an arc wall with a small radian, if the wall collides with the wall of the swimming pool, the included angle between the swimming pool cleaning robot and the wall of the swimming pool is large, and the moving inertia of the swimming pool cleaning robot itself swings the tail relative to the wall of the swimming pool, which may not make the position of the swimming pool cleaning robot relative to the wall of the swimming pool meet the predetermined condition.
For another example, in a case that the wall of the swimming pool is an arc-shaped wall with a large arc, the swimming pool cleaning robot may swing the tail relative to the wall of the swimming pool only by using the movement inertia of the swimming pool cleaning robot itself, or the position of the swimming pool cleaning robot relative to the wall of the swimming pool may not satisfy the predetermined condition.
Specifically, the swimming pool cleaning robot may be driven to swing relative to the swimming pool wall based on a fulcrum that is a front side angle of the swimming pool wall that the swimming pool cleaning robot collides with (the front side angle is a side angle of the front side surface of the swimming pool cleaning robot) as the fulcrum until the position of the front side surface of the swimming pool cleaning robot relative to the swimming pool wall satisfies a predetermined condition (refer to the state shown in fig. 3A).
And step S206, controlling the swimming pool cleaning robot to retreat relative to the swimming pool wall and adjusting the orientation until the orientation of the swimming pool cleaning robot meets the preset orientation.
In this embodiment, the pool cleaning robot can be controlled to perform a differential backward movement (refer to the states shown in fig. 3A to 3B) with respect to the pool wall until the backward direction of the backward movement performed by the pool cleaning robot coincides with a predetermined direction (e.g., the direction of F1 shown in fig. 3B).
And step S208, controlling the swimming pool cleaning robot to move towards the swimming pool wall again based on the preset orientation until the swimming pool wall is collided secondarily.
For example, referring to fig. 3B-3C, the pool cleaning robot can be controlled to travel again in a direction approaching the walls of the pool with respect to the bottom of the pool based on the direction F1 along the second wash path S2 until the front side of the pool cleaning robot impacts the walls of the pool a second time.
In this embodiment, the second cleaning path is parallel or substantially parallel to the first cleaning path.
Alternatively, the second cleaning path may be contiguous or partially overlapping with the first cleaning path.
For example, in the embodiment shown in fig. 3B-3C, there is partial overlap between the second wash path S2 and the first wash path S1, and thus, there is partial overlap between the portion of the pool wall that the pool cleaning robot first encounters when it first encounters the wall and the portion of the pool wall that the pool cleaning robot second encounters when it encounters the wall.
Step S210, the swimming pool cleaning robot is controlled to perform turning with respect to the swimming pool wall until the turning direction after the turning is performed by the swimming pool cleaning robot is opposite to the preset direction.
Alternatively, the pool cleaning robot may be controlled to perform the in-situ turn based on the collision location when the pool cleaning robot secondarily collides with the wall of the pool until the turn direction after the in-situ turn is performed by the pool cleaning robot is opposite to the predetermined direction (e.g., direction F2 shown in fig. 3E).
Alternatively, the pool cleaning robot may be controlled to perform a non-in-place turning (refer to the states shown in fig. 3C to 3E) by performing a differential forward movement along the pool wall after a secondary collision with the pool wall until the turning direction after the non-in-place turning of the pool cleaning robot is opposite to the predetermined direction (e.g., the direction F2 shown in fig. 3E).
Alternatively, a third cleaning path (e.g., the third cleaning path S3 shown in FIG. 3E) followed by the turning operation of the pool cleaning robot can be adjacent to the first cleaning path (e.g., the first cleaning path S1 shown in FIG. 3A) to ensure that the pool cleaning robot contacts every part of the pool edge.
In step S212, the turning direction of the pool cleaning robot is updated to the preset direction, and the process returns to step S202.
For example, the preset orientation of the pool cleaning robot may be updated from the direction F1 shown in fig. 3A to 3C to the direction F2 shown in fig. 3E and 3F, and the pool cleaning robot is controlled to travel along the third cleaning path S3 based on the direction F2 to perform the next wall-impacting turn-around operation (refer to the state shown in fig. 3F).
To sum up, the swimming pool cleaning robot's that this application embodiment provided bumps to wall turn round method is through increasing the pendulum tail operation after the swimming pool cleaning robot bumps to carry out to retreat with the adjustment orientation based on the gesture behind the pendulum tail, can supply swimming pool cleaning robot can accomplish more accurately and bump to turn round, and make the execution of bumping to wall turn round operation more smooth and easy.
Fig. 4 shows a process flow diagram of a pool edge cleaning method in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in the figure, the present embodiment mainly includes the following steps:
step S402, controlling the swimming pool cleaning robot to perform wall-touching turning relative to the swimming pool wall corresponding to the edge position to be cleaned according to the edge position to be cleaned.
In this embodiment, based on the wall-touching turning method of the pool cleaning robot described in the above embodiments, the pool cleaning robot is controlled to perform the wall-touching turning with respect to the pool wall corresponding to the edge position to be cleaned.
Step S404, controlling the swimming pool cleaning robot to clean the edge position to be cleaned in the wall-touching turning process.
In summary, the embodiment of the present application can improve the cleaning efficiency of the swimming pool edge by controlling the swimming pool cleaning robot to perform the task of cleaning the swimming pool edge based on the wall-touching turning scheme described in the foregoing embodiments.
Specifically, by controlling the pool cleaning robot to collide with the pool wall twice before and after, the number of times of cleaning the edge of the pool can be increased, and the area of the edge which is not cleaned can be reduced.
Furthermore, through controlling swimming pool cleaning robot to carry out the pendulum tail after the first collision to through carrying out the differential motion in order turning round for the swimming pool wall, can provide each part full contact at swimming pool cleaning robot and swimming pool edge, be particularly useful for the washing task at arc swimming pool edge, can greatly improve the coverage that cleans at arc swimming pool edge.
