A robot cleaner enables a wet cleaning, has a replaceable cleaning unit, and ensures a sufficient friction force for doing a wet cleaning of a floor. The robot cleaner includes a frame including a wheel for driving, a replaceable cleaning unit formed at a lower part of the frame to clean a bottom surface and disposed in front of the wheel, a tank disposed at an upper part of the wheel and configured to supply fluid to the cleaning unit, a pump configured to pump the fluid contained in the tank such that the fluid contained in the tank is supplied to the cleaning unit, a hose configured to extend to the pump and the upper part of the cleaning unit and through which the fluid pumped by the pump flows, and a bumper formed on a side of the frame.

A cleaning system is provided. The cleaning system includes a robot cleaner and a station. The robot cleaner includes a pad fixing part on which a cleaning pad is detachably mounted, a lifter to lift a part of the robot cleaner at which the pad fixing part is positioned, and a pad detacher to detach the cleaning pad mounted on the pad fixing part. The station includes a pad storage box in which a cleaning pad that is to be provided to the robot cleaner is stored, a pad coupling part on which a cleaning pad that is to be coupled to the robot cleaner is rested, and a pad supplier to supply the cleaning pad stored in the pad storage box to the pad coupling part.

A cleaning tool includes: an adhesive portion that adsorbs an object to be adsorbed and a film portion that includes the adhesive portion. The film portion includes a hole portion which expands in accordance with an external force applied to the film portion. The adhesive portion is exposed to the outside of the film portion via the hole portion in a case where the external force equal to or greater than a predetermined magnitude is applied to the film portion.

The disclosure relates to a cleaning robot and a control method. The cleaning robot may include: a body; a moving mechanism; a power module; a mopping module; and a control module; and further includes a liquid supply device, where the control module can control, based on a current mopping condition, the liquid supply device to convey a liquid to the mopping module. The beneficial effects of the present disclosure are that the cleaning robot can complete mopping work more efficiently, to reduce burden of a user and improve the degree of automation and the user experience of the cleaning robot. The cleaning robot can intelligently and autonomously control, based on the current mopping condition, the liquid supply device to convey a liquid to a mop, thereby prolonging the service life of a ground material such as a floor in home of the user.

An autonomous floor cleaner includes a base that is movable over a surface to be cleaned, a collection chamber associated with the base, and a rotating top mounted coupled with the base for rotation relative to the base, where the top carries at least one sweeping element for sweeping dirt on the surface to be cleaned toward the collection chamber.

A method for cleaning the mop of a cleaning robot includes: obtaining mop usage information after the cleaning robot carries the mop to clean the floor, and selecting a target mop cleaning mode to clean the mop according to the mop usage information.

A robotic cleaner includes a cleaning assembly for cleaning a surface and a main robot body. The main robot body houses a drive system to cause movement of the robotic cleaner and a microcontroller to control the movement of the robotic cleaner. The cleaning assembly is located in front of the drive system and a width of the cleaning assembly is greater than a width of the main robot body. A robotic cleaning system includes a main robot body and a plurality of cleaning assemblies for cleaning a surface. The main robot body houses a drive system to cause movement of the robotic cleaner and a microcontroller to control the movement of the robotic cleaner. The cleaning assembly is located in front of the drive system and each of the cleaning assemblies is detachable from the main robot body and each of the cleaning assemblies has a unique cleaning function.

A drone for cleaning an outer wall of a high-rise building is configured to float and move in the air. The drone includes a drone main body and a floating transfer unit for floating and moving the drone main body in the art. The drone main body has a camera unit provided to photograph the exterior of a building and driving wheels on one surface thereof to be guide to the exterior of the building. The drone main body further has a buffer angle member to cushion an impact with the building and a washing nozzle unit which sprays water onto and washes the exterior of the building. Accordingly, by cleaning the exterior or a window of a skyscraper using the drone, there are the effects of reducing the costs of cleaning a skyscraper, simplifying a cleaning operation, preventing human accidents due to falls, and reducing cleaning time.

A pad changer capable of automatically replacing a pad used to wipe out dust on a floor, a cleaner and a cleaner system having the pad changer are provided. The pad changer to replace a pad mounted to a cleaner includes a replacement unit. The replacement unit includes a separation cartridge to separate the pad from the cleaner and receive the separated pad therein, and a mounting cartridge to receive a pad therein and mount the pad to the cleaner.

A replacement head for a vacuum device includes a plastic tray, a filter and a pad. The plastic tray includes a dust chamber, a first connector lip and a second connector lip. An opening is provided that allows air, dust and debris to be drawn into the dust chamber during use. The connector lips are provided for attachment to a vacuum device. The pad is attached to the lower side of the plastic tray and is in contact with the floor during cleaning. The filter is connected to the plastic tray such that the filter substantially covers a top opening in the dust chamber.
