In view of the above, according to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a self-cleaning method of a floor cleaning machine, the method including: responding to a self-cleaning instruction, and controlling a motor of the mopping machine to be started; the motor is controlled to drive the roller brush of the mopping machine to alternately rotate forward and backward for a first time period.

The self-cleaning method of the mopping machine comprises the steps of responding to a self-cleaning instruction, controlling the motor of the mopping machine to be started, controlling the motor to drive the roller brush of the mopping machine to alternately rotate in the forward direction and the reverse direction for a first time, further enabling the roller brush and the water squeezing assembly of the mopping machine to mutually interfere and rub, realizing self-cleaning of the roller brush, avoiding the need of manually cleaning the roller brush by a user, saving the time and the physical strength of the user, avoiding the need of disassembling the roller brush by the user, and avoiding the problem of low connection reliability caused by frequent disassembly. Further, under the drive of motor, the round brush can be forward (anticlockwise) rotation earlier, and the sewage that the crowded water subassembly extruded this moment takes the surperficial tiny particle rubbish of round brush to flow, then makes the motor drive the round brush reverse (clockwise) rotation, and the surperficial rubbish of round brush will be squeezed the scraping by crowded water subassembly reverse this moment, and adhesive force between rubbish and the round brush descends, and when driving the round brush forward rotation once more along with the motor, then the surperficial rubbish of round brush will flow along with sewage easily. It is worth mentioning that when the motor drives the rolling brush to rotate reversely, the sewage generated by the interference of the water squeezing assembly and the rolling brush can wash the garbage accumulated on the back side of the water squeezing assembly along with the rotation of the rolling brush, namely effectively wash the sanitary dead angle on the back side of the water squeezing assembly, so that the accumulated garbage is scattered and attached to the rolling brush, and can be washed and discharged along with the forward rotation of the rolling brush again. That is to say, in the invention, the motor drives the rolling brush to alternately operate in the forward direction and the reverse direction, so that on one hand, the self-cleaning of the rolling brush can be realized, the manual cleaning of a user is not needed, the intelligent humanization of the mopping machine is improved, on the other hand, the rolling brush which alternately operates in the forward direction and the reverse direction can clean the water squeezing component of the mopping machine, the garbage is prevented from being accumulated on the back side of the water squeezing component, and the interior of the mop. It is worth mentioning that in the process of the motor driving the floor mopping machine roller brush to rotate in a positive and negative alternate mode, in one period, the roller brush rotates in a positive direction for a fixed number of turns, then the roller brush rotates in a negative direction for a fixed number of turns, and in a first time period, the motor can drive the roller brush to rotate for at least one period. The specific time length required by one period and the first time length can be set according to actual needs.

In one possible design, before the step of controlling the motor to drive the roller brush of the mopping machine to rotate forward and backward for the first time period, the method further comprises the following steps of: acquiring a self-cleaning grade according to the self-cleaning instruction; the first duration is determined according to the self-cleaning level.

In the design, before the step of controlling the motor to drive the roller brush of the mopping machine to rotate forward and backward alternately for the first time length, the method further comprises the steps of obtaining a self-cleaning grade according to the self-cleaning instruction, further determining the first time length according to the self-cleaning grade, and when the self-cleaning grade is higher, the first time length is longer, further carrying out high-intensity cleaning on the roller brush. It is noted that the self-cleaning level may be preset according to the usage habit of the user, and specifically, the self-cleaning level may include a low level, a middle level, and a high level.
