Abstract: A self-moving robot system is provided, including a dust collection base station and a self-moving robot, where the self-moving robot includes a main machine and a dust containing box; the dust collection base station includes a power mechanism and a transfer, where the transfer can assist separation of the dust containing box from the main machine or mounting of the dust containing box on the main machine; and the power mechanism drives the transfer to move the dust containing box to a dust collection opening of a dust collector, so as to transfer debris to the dust collector. The dust containing box is transferred by the transfer with relatively low working noise. During dust collection, there is no need to move the entire self-moving robot with a relatively small system load and relatively high use comfort of a user.

Abstract: A robot cleaner of the present disclosure includes: a robot cleaner including: a main body forming an outer shape; a water tank configured to contain water; a pair of rotary mops configured to rotate in contact with a floor to move the main body; a drive motor configured to rotate the pair of rotary mops; a pump connected to the water tank for injecting the water to the rotary mop; and a controller configured to determine whether the water in the water tank is insufficient based on an output current of the drive motor indicating a water content of the rotary mops. Accordingly, the robot cleaner may be effective in terms of cost and space utilization because it does not have a separate water quantity sensor and can measure the water quantity of the rotary mop of the robot cleaner.

Abstract: An autonomous floor cleaning system includes an interlock for physically interlocking an autonomous floor cleaner with a docking station. The interlock selectively engages when the robot is docked at the docking station, and can automatically engage as when a predefined locking criterion is met. The interlock can remain engaged until a predefined unlocking criterion is met. Methods for docking an autonomous floor cleaner with a docking station are disclosed.
