Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/125489
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A robot cleaner (1) and a control method therefor, and a floor treating system. The floor treating system comprises the robot cleaner (1) and a docking station (2). The docking station (2) comprises a bottom plate (207), a support plate (206) and an upper plate (205), wherein the upper plate (205) is connected to the bottom plate (207) by means of the support plate (206). The robot cleaner (1) comprises: a robot body (11); a moving apparatus (40), for supporting the robot body (11) and driving the robot cleaner (1) to move; a cleaning apparatus (50), installed on the robot body (11) and comprising a mopping module (14); a control apparatus (30), for controlling the moving apparatus (40) to drive the robot cleaner (1) to move; a power apparatus (70), for powering the moving apparatus (40). The robot cleaner further comprises an elevating apparatus including an elevating mechanism and a support member. The control apparatus (30) can control the elevating mechanism to elevate the mopping module (14) from a first position to a second position with respect to an operating surface. The support member is configured to provide, when the mopping module (14) is elevated, a supporting point with respect to the operating surface different from that of the moving apparatus (40). The control apparatus (30) controls, according to a detection result of a detecting apparatus (10), the robot cleaner (1) to return to the docking station (2) and change a mopping cloth thereat, thus not requiring manual intervention, having high intelligence and reducing the burden of a user. The control apparatus (30) controls the elevating apparatus to elevate the mopping module (14) timely, such that even if the floor condition changes or an obstacle is encountered and the like, the movement can be smooth, and when the robot cleaner (1) returns to the docking station (2) or switches an operating region, a secondary pollution or cross contamination can be prevented and a better cleaning effect can be achieved.
