Abstract: An intelligent cleaning robot includes a housing, and a floor brush assembly and a dust suction apparatus mounted therein. The floor brush assembly has a first and second accommodating cavities, a partition plate separating the cavities, and a first and second rotatable brushes exposed from the bottom of the housing and accommodated in the cavities. A gap exists between a bottom of the partition plate and the floor. A slit is formed between the first rotatable brush and the partition plate. The dust suction apparatus includes a dust suction conduit and a dust collecting box. Two ends of the conduit are in communication with the first accommodating cavity and the box respectively. The two brushes rotate in opposite directions, the rotation of the first rotatable brush makes dirt enter the conduit through the slit, and the rotation of the second rotatable brush makes dirt enter the slit through the gap.
