    Abstract: A robot cleaning system is capable of performing automatic cleaning and manual cleaning with a minimal number of devices. The robot cleaning system includes a first cleaning unit (100) to perform automatic cleaning while moving by itself in an area to be cleaned, and a second cleaning unit (200) to perform manual cleaning while being coupled to the first cleaning unit (100) as it is moved by a user in an area to be cleaned. Each of the first and second cleaning units contains a blower (120,220) and dust collector (130,230) to vacuum. The first cleaning unit has a dust outlet (115) to deliver dust to the second cleaning unit (300) when the first cleaning unit (100) is coupled to the second cleaning unit (200) via the dust outlet (115) of the first cleaning unit (100), a connector (240), and the connection port (212) of the second cleaning unit.

    Abstract: A robot cleaner comprises a suction unit installed within a cleaner body, for sucking dirt on a floor; a driving unit for moving the cleaner body; a detecting unit mounted at the cleaner body, for detecting a height between a bottom of the cleaner body and a floor; and a control unit controlling the suction unit in response to signal from the detecting unit, for adjusting a suction force of the suction unit. Accordingly, cleaning efficiency of the robot cleaner can be improved by controlling the suction force for sucking dirt in accordance with unevenness of the floor.

    Abstract: The invention concerns a system for guiding and positioning relative to a fixed recharging station an autonomous mobile robot comprising a rechargeable battery. The system operates by means of at least one directional infrared beam emitted by the fixed station, the mobile robot being equipped with a directional system for detecting infrared emission connected to a microcomputer incorporated in said robot. The robot moves on working surface in an essentially random manner, the microcomputer comprising an algorithm for controlling the return to the fixed station by moving the robot towards the direction of said infrared beam. The microcomputer algorithm initiates the return towards the fixed recharging station after a minimum working time, independently of the state of the battery charge, and when the mobile robot detects an intensity greater than a certain threshold, said threshold decreasing with the increase of the working time interval and/or when the state of the battery charge is below a certain level. Several infrared beams operating in different directions can be emitted to cause the robot to return to the recharge station.
