Abstract: A robot bumper assembly (108) includes a bumper body (107), a first sensor array (120a) and a second sensor array (120b). The first sensor array is disposed along and contoured to the periphery of a forward facing portion (110) of the bumper body and senses contact with an external environment at positions along the contour of the periphery forward facing portion of the bumper body. The second sensor array is disposed along and contoured to the periphery of a top portion (109) of the forward facing portion of the robot body. The top portion is angled, ramping up. The second sensor array senses contact with an external environment at positions along the periphery of the angled top portion of the bumper body.

Abstract: This document describes a mobile cleaning robot including a chassis having a forward portion and an aft portion; a blower affixed to the chassis; a bin supported by the chassis and configured to receive airflow from the blower, the chassis enabling evacuation of the bin through a bottom of the robot. The bin includes a top, a bottom, a sidewall, and an internal barrier. The bin includes a first volume and a second volume separated by the internal barrier and a filter unit supported by the internal barrier and removably disposed in an airflow path between the first volume that includes an intake port in the bin and the second volume that includes an exhaust port in the bin.

Abstract: Eine Roboterstoßfängeranordnung (108) beinhaltet einen Stoßfängerkörper (107), ein erstes Sensorarray (120a) und ein zweites Sensorarray (120b). Das erste Sensorarray ist entlang eines vorderen Abschnitts (110) des Stoßfängerkörpers angeordnet und in seiner Form an dessen äußeren Rand angepasst und erkennt Kontakt mit einer Außenumgebung an Positionen entlang des Umrisses des äußeren Rands des vorderen Abschnitts des Stoßfängerkörpers. Das zweite Sensorarray ist entlang eines oberen Abschnitts (109) des vorderen Abschnitts des Roboterkörpers angeordnet und in seiner Form an dessen äußeren Rand angepasst. Der obere Abschnitt ist wie eine Rampe nach oben gewinkelt. Das zweite Sensorarray erkennt Kontakt mit einer Außenumgebung an Positionen entlang des äußeren Rands des gewinkelten oberen Abschnitts des Stoßfängerkörpers.
