Abstract:
Cleaning robots may use floor-type-detection techniques as a trigger for autonomously altering various floor-cleaning characteristics. In some examples, a controller circuit of the robot is configured to determine a flooring type as a function of a signal from a motion sensor indicative of a change in pitch caused by the robot crossing a flooring discontinuity. In some examples, the controller circuit is configured to determine a flooring type based on a power draw signal corresponding to the cleaning head assembly of the robot.
Abstract:
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen autonom betreibbaren Bodenstaubsauger, der modular aufgebaut ist. Der Bodenstaubsauger umfasst dabei ein Reinigungskopfmodul, sowie ein separates Kanistermodul. Reinigungskopfmodul und Kanistermodul sind dabei über einen Schlauch miteinander verbunden, so dass über das Reinigungskopfmodul eingesaugter Staub in das Kanistermodul überführbar ist.
Abstract:
An autonomous cleaning robot (100) comprises a chassis (110), at least one motorized drive wheel (120a, 120b) mounted to the chassis (110) and arranged to propel the robot (100) across a surface, and a pair of cleaning rollers (310a, 310b) mounted to the chassis (110) and having outer surfaces (350) exposed on an underside of the chassis (110) and to each other (310a, 310b). The cleaning rollers (310a, 310b) are drivable to counter- rotate while the robot (100) is propelled, thereby cooperating to direct raised debris upward into the robot (100) between the rollers (310a, 310b). A side brush (140) is further mounted to the chassis (110) to rotate beneath the chassis (110) adjacent a lateral side (104a) of the chassis (110) about an upwardly extending side brush axis (Zc), and the outer surface (311a) of a first of the cleaning rollers of the pair (310b) extends laterally beyond the outer surface (312a) of a second of the cleaning rollers of the pair (310a) and laterally beyond the side brush axis (Zc), such that the first cleaning roller (310b) defines a cleaning width (W R , W R1 ) spanning the side brush axis (Zc).
Abstract:
A robot cleaner is provided that includes a driver configured to move the robot cleaner, and a suction unit configured to suck foreign objects from a surface below the robot cleaner. The robot cleaner also includes a detector configured to capture images of regions disposed in front of the robot cleaner. The robot cleaner further includes a controller configured to control the detector to capture a first image of a region before cleaning, control the detector to capture a second image of the region after cleaning, and generate cleaning result information using the first and second images.
Abstract:
Autonomous planar surface cleaning robots are disclosed. The robot includes a main body having a bottom portion defining an outer portion defining a surface area about a perimeter thereof and an inner portion defining a cavity formed within the outer portion. The main body supports a driving mechanism, a vacuum source, a vacuum sensor, and a control unit. The vacuum source, cavity, and vacuum sensor are in fluid communication. The control unit is electrically coupled to the driving mechanism, the vacuum source, and the vacuum sensor, and is configured to control the robot to turn direction when the control unit receives a signal from the vacuum sensor indicating that a degree of vacuum pressure within the cavity is below a predetermined vacuum pressure. Also disclosed is robot that includes multiple vacuum sources. Also disclosed is an apparatus that includes a connector pole.
