Conversion member and electric cleaner including the same

Disclosed are a conversion member and an electric cleaner. The conversion member according to embodiments disclosed herein may be detachably coupled to a handle included in a main body and a pipe. Then, the main body may be connected to an intake port located at the lowest position, and the pipe may be connected to an extension handle, allowing the main body to be located at a lower position facing the intake port. Thus, the electric cleaner may have a low center of gravity. Further, when the conversion member is detached, the pipe may be located between the main body and the intake port to be connected to the main body and the intake port, respectively. Accordingly, the main body may be located at an upper position directed away from the intake port, allowing the electric cleaner to have a high center of gravity.

Filtering devices for evacuation stations

A bag-based filtering device for collecting debris from a cleaning robot via a debris evacuation station includes a filter bag configured to separate at least the portion of the evacuated debris from a flow of air generated by the evacuation station. The filtering device includes a conduit extending inward from an opening of the filter bag into the receptacle. The conduit is configured to pneumatically connect a receptacle of the filtering device with an inlet of the filtering device to direct the flow of air generated by the evacuation station through the filter bag to separate at least the portion of the evacuated debris from the flow of air.

An evacuation station for a surface cleaning apparatus comprises a stationary base portion and an removable portion comprising an air treatment assembly that is moveably mounted to the stationary base portion. A pre-motor filter is exposed when the removably portion is removed from the stationary portion.

CLEANING DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

A cleaning device including a suction motor; a suction head including a suction port; a rotatable brush inside the suction head; a brush motor; a pressure sensor; a memory storing coefficient tables including coefficients of a hyperplane equation for determining a type of surface to be cleaned; and a controller. The controller is configured to, in a first state with the suction head separated from the surface, select a reference coefficient table corresponding to a first suction pressure and a first load of the brush motor, in a second state with the suction head in contact with the surface, identify a type of the surface based on a second suction pressure, a second load of the brush motor, and the reference coefficient table, and adjust an output of the suction motor and/or the brush motor based on the identified type of the surface to be cleaned.

A cleaning device, a storage apparatus for the cleaning device, and a cleaning system are provided. The cleaning device includes a body and a connecting portion, the body or the connecting portion is provided with an attraction member, and the attraction member is configured to attract a surface to be attracted.

SELF-CLEANING VACUUM CLEANER

A docking station is provided for allowing decontaminating parts of a floor care device. The floor care device includes at least one part that is susceptible to contamination when the floor care device is used in a floor care mode. The method may include detecting a transition of the floor care device to a park mode, and in response thereto, executing a decontamination program, the decontamination program including emitting light in a violet portion of the visual spectrum and thereby illuminating the at least one part for the decontamination thereof.

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.

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.
