Window-cleaning robot and method for controlling the same

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a window-cleaning robot and a method for controlling the same. The robot includes: a body; a vacuum suction port disposed on the body; a suction detector configured to detect a vacuum suction value generated at the vacuum suction port; a light-emitting assembly disposed on the body, a light-emitting area of the light-emitting assembly being configured corresponding to the vacuum suction value; and a controller, connected with the suction detector and the light-emitting assembly respectively and configured to light all or a part of light-emitting area of the light-emitting assembly according to the vacuum suction value, for reminding the user.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A window-cleaning robot, comprising:
 a body;   a vacuum suction port disposed on the body;   a suction detector configured to detect a vacuum suction value generated at the vacuum suction port;   a light-emitting assembly disposed on the body, wherein a light-emitting area of the light-emitting assembly is configured corresponding to the vacuum suction value; and   a controller, connected with the suction detector and the light-emitting assembly respectively and configured to light all or a part of the light-emitting area of the light-emitting assembly according to the vacuum suction value.   
     
     
         2 . The window-cleaning robot according to  claim 1 , wherein the light-emitting assembly comprises a plurality of indicator lamps and the plurality of indicator lamps are arranged in a ring shape, in a rectangular shape or in a triangular shape. 
     
     
         3 . The window-cleaning robot according to  claim 2 , wherein the body comprises an upper cover and a transparent display frame disposed on the upper cover, and the light-emitting assembly is disposed below the transparent display frame. 
     
     
         4 . The window-cleaning robot according to  claim 2 , wherein the body comprises an upper cover, the upper cover is made of transparent material, and the light-emitting assembly is disposed below the upper cover. 
     
     
         5 . The window-cleaning robot according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a voice reminding device, configured to issue a voice reminder if the vacuum suction value is less than a preset threshold.   
     
     
         6 . The window-cleaning robot according to  claim 1 , wherein, a lighted part of the light-emitting area is in direct proportion to the vacuum suction value. 
     
     
         7 . The window-cleaning robot according to  claim 3 , wherein indication signs are set on the upper cover and configured to indicate a level of the vacuum suction value. 
     
     
         8 . A method for controlling a window-cleaning robot, wherein, a light-emitting assembly is disposed on the window-cleaning robot and the method comprises:
 detecting a vacuum suction value generated at a vacuum suction port of the window-cleaning robot; and   lighting all or a part of a light-emitting area of the light-emitting assembly according to the vacuum suction value.   
     
     
         9 . The method according to  claim 8 , wherein the light-emitting assembly comprises a plurality of indicator lamps and the plurality of indicator lamps are arranged in a ring shape, in a rectangular shape or in a triangular shape. 
     
     
         10 . The method according to  claim 8 , wherein the window-cleaning robot comprises an upper cover and a transparent display frame disposed on the upper cover, and the light-emitting assembly is disposed below the transparent display frame. 
     
     
         11 . The method according to  claim 8 , wherein the window-cleaning robot comprises an upper cover, the upper cover is made of transparent material, and the light-emitting assembly is disposed below the upper cover. 
     
     
         12 . The method according to  claim 8 , further comprising:
 issuing a voice reminder if the vacuum suction value is less than a preset threshold.   
     
     
         13 . The method according to  claim 8 , wherein a lighted part of the light-emitting area of the light-emitting assembly is in direct proportion to the vacuum suction value.
