Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a cleaner and a base station. A driving unit is utilized to drive a feeder to move to a pick-up position, and then to a working position from the pick-up position, so that tangles on a roller brush are pulled down. When the tangles are pulled down, a cutter cuts the tangles such that the roller brush is effectively cleared. Therefore, a cutting mode of the cleaner is to pull the tangles first and then cut the tangles, which can ensure the tangles that adhere to the roller brush in clusters to leave the roller brush in time after the tangles are cut off such that the tangles can be effectively cleared away.

Abstract: A cleaning robot system, including a cleaning robot with a cleaning module connected to the cleaning robot. The cleaning module includes a main body, connectable with a cleaning medium to wipe a working surface. The main body is provided with a connection region for connection of the cleaning medium and a demounting region for demounting of the cleaning medium, and no interconnection action occurs between the demounting region and the cleaning medium. The cleaning module of the cleaning robot effectively fixes the cleaning medium to the main body through the connection region. When the cleaning medium needs to be removed from the main body, the cleaning medium can be more easily and conveniently be demounted from the main body by means of the demounting region because no interconnection action occurs between the demounting region and the cleaning medium.

Abstract: An autonomous coverage robot includes a cleaning assembly having forward roller and rearward rollers counter-rotating with respect to each other. The rollers are arranged to substantially maintain a cross sectional area between the two rollers yet permitting collapsing therebetween as large debris is passed. Each roller includes a resilient elastomer outer tube and a partially air-occupied inner resilient core configured to bias the outer tube to rebound. The core includes a hub and resilient spokes extending between the inner surface of the outer tube and the hub. The spokes suspend the outer tube to float about the hub and transfer torque from the hub to the outer tube while allowing the outer tube to momentarily deform or move offset from the hub during impact with debris larger than the cross sectional area between the two rollers.
