Debris Bin Assembly, Cleaning Robot and Cleaning Robot System
The disclosure provides a debris bin assembly, a cleaning robot and a cleaning robot system, the debris bin assembly includes a debris bin housing, a filter assembly, and a flow guide plate, the debris bin housing includes a top portion and a bottom portion disposed opposite to the top portion, and a side housing surrounding the top portion and the bottom portion, the top portion, the bottom portion and the side housing are enclosed to form an inner cavity, the top portion of the debris bin housing is provided with an air exhaust channel communicating with the inner cavity and an air outlet communicating with the air exhaust channel, the side housing is provided with an air inlet communicating with the inner cavity, the air inlet inclines towards a side where the top portion is located, the filter assembly is disposed in the air exhaust channel of the top portion, the flow guide plate is located in the inner cavity and is disposed opposite to the air inlet, the flow guide plate extends from the top portion to the bottom portion and is configured for intercepting, decelerating and laterally guiding air flow entering from the air inlet, so as to decelerate and laterally guide air flow carrying debris, which avoids debris directly impacting a filter screen at a high speed and attaching to it, and consequently, a problem that the filter screen is easily blocked is solved.
Cleaner Hanger Assembly
A cleaner hanger assembly, comprising a hanger (30), a charging bottom plate (20), an accessory frame (40), a hanger column (50) and a base (60). The charging bottom plate (20) can be used in cooperation with the hanger (30), so that a charging operation can be performed while the cleaner is hung on the hanger (30) whether when the cleaner is in a hanging state or in a floor-standing state, and the charging bottom plate (20) can also be detached for separate use. The hanger (30) can be connected to the accessory frame (40) to form a wall hanger assembly; or the hanger (30) can be connected to the base (60) by means of the hanger column (50), and the accessory frame (40) is fixed in the middle of the hanger column (50) to form a floor-standing hanger assembly.
Cleaner holder and cleaner unit
A cleaner holder comprises a base, a stand coupled to the base and extending upward from the base, a support body coupled to an upper portion of the stand and configured to support a cleaner, and a cleaning module support coupled to the stand and configured to support a cleaning module of the cleaner. The cleaning module may be detachably coupled to an extension tube of the cleaner.
TROLLEY AND METHOD FOR LOADING AND UNLOADING CLEANING ROBOTS INTO AND OUT OF A TROLLEY
A trolley and method for loading and unloading cleaning robots into a trolley, including for storing, emptying and supplying energy to cleaning robots. The trolley includes an energy supply unit, storage compartments, each storage compartment having a charging contact which is designed to be contacted with a cleaning robot arranged in the corresponding storage compartment to supply the cleaning robot with energy, transport wheels configured to move the trolley over a substrate, a suction system having a foldable suction platform configured to empty one of the cleaning robots arranged on the suction platform, a lift system with a foldable receiving element configured to transport the cleaning robots individually by way of the receiving element in its unfolded state to the storage compartments and away from the storage compartments, and at least one door element configured to close or expose the foldable receiving element and the foldable suction platform.
METHOD FOR BRINGING CLEANING ROBOTS INTO AND OUT OF A TROLLEY, AND CLEANING SYSTEM
A method for bringing cleaning robots into and out of a trolley, and cleaning system, in which each cleaning robot is automatically brought into the trolley individually and the cleaning robots are automatically brought out of the trolley in an order depending on the cleaning effort assigned to them or in a sequence specified by a user of the trolley. A cleaning system comprises a trolley and a multiplicity of cleaning robots configured to carry out the method.
METHOD FOR EMPTYING CLEANING ROBOTS AND CLEANING SYSTEM
A method for emptying cleaning robots and cleaning system, having a dirt collection unit and a suction interface using a trolley, configured to store the plurality of cleaning robots outside their cleaning phase in which they carry out cleaning tasks, and which has a suction system with a foldable suction platform, a suction opening, a dirt container, and a blower. The method includes the steps of unfolding the suction platform of the trolley, if it is folded, so that it is arranged on a substrate on which the trolley stands in an operational set-up position, arranging one of the cleaning robots on the unfolded suction platform, aligning the suction interface to the suction opening, and activating the blower in order to empty the cleaning robot arranged and aligned on the suction platform so that dirt is transported from the dirt collection unit into the dirt container.
Wet dry appliance
A cleaning device and methods for cleaning are provided. In one embodiment, the cleaning device includes a head assembly, a body assembly, and a handle assembly. The cleaning device also includes components that enable the cleaning device to operate in dry cleaning modes and wet cleaning modes. Dry cleaning modes can employ a vacuum assembly, including a motor, tubing, and a fluid recovery tank in order to draw in debris and waste into a fluid recovery tank. Wet cleaning modes can further employ a fluid supply tank, a pump, and tubing in order to supply fluid to a brushroll to aid in a cleaning process.
Cleaning System
A cleaning system includes a cleaning vehicle that cleans a predetermined travel route, a maintenance facility provided at a specified position on the travel route and performs maintenance on the cleaning vehicle, and a control device that controls them. The control device executes interruption and maintenance control in response to a state of the cleaning vehicle satisfying a predetermined maintenance condition during execution of the cleaning by the cleaning vehicle. The interruption and maintenance control includes first control for interrupting the cleaning performed by the cleaning vehicle, causing the cleaning vehicle to move to the specified position, and causing the maintenance facility to perform the maintenance on the cleaning vehicle, and second control for causing, after the first control, the cleaning vehicle to move to an interruption position at which the cleaning was interrupted, and causing the cleaning vehicle to resume the cleaning from the interruption position.
VACUUM CLEANER STATION, VACUUM CLEANER SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING VACUUM CLEANER STATION
The present disclosure relates to a cleaner system including: a cleaner; a cleaner station; and an imaginary plane including an imaginary suction flow path through line penetrating a suction flow path in a longitudinal direction and an imaginary suction motor axis defined by extending a rotation axis of a suction motor, in which when the cleaner is coupled to the cleaner station, the plane penetrates at least a part of the cleaner station, such that a center of gravity of the cleaner is disposed to pass through a space for maintaining balance of the station, and as a result, it is possible to stably support the cleaner and the station while preventing the cleaner and the station from falling down.
CLEANING DEVICE AND CONTROLLING METHOD THEREOF
A cleaning device including a cleaner and a station on which the cleaner is mounted is provided. The cleaner includes a suction head, a dust container to collect dust contained in air vacuumed through the suction head, and an extension tube connecting the suction head with the dust container. The station includes a main body configured to suck dust of the dust container of the cleaner and contain the dust, a support configured to support the main body and guide rotation of the main body, and a rotation driving device disposed in the support and configured to transmit a rotational force to the support.
