A nozzle includes: a housing having a chamber formed in the housing and a front opening formed on a front side of the housing; a rotation cleaning part accommodated in the chamber and to clean a floor; a partition member provided in the chamber to partition the chamber into two areas and of which at least a portion is in contact with the rotation cleaning part; a driving unit to rotate the rotation cleaning part; and a connection tube connected to the housing and configured to transfer air introduced through the front opening to a dust container of the cleaner, wherein a lower passage formed below the rotation cleaning part and an upper passage formed above the rotation cleaning part are provided in the chamber, and a portion of the partition member is recessed to define the upper passages.

This document describes a mobile cleaning robot that includes a chassis that supports a drive system, a debris collection volume; and a cleaning head formed to complete a bottom of the robot. The cleaning head includes a frame for affixing the cleaning head to the chassis, a monolithic housing having an interior cavity, a suspension linkage movably suspending the monolithic housing from the frame, the suspension linkage being configured to lift the monolithic housing, a diaphragm formed of a flexible material and mated to the monolithic housing, a rigid duct mated the frame to form a pneumatic path between the monolithic housing and the rigid duct through the diaphragm, and cleaning extractors disposed in the interior cavity of the monolithic housing.

An autonomous surface cleaning apparatus includes a body, a drive system carried by the body, and a cleaning assembly disposed at a front of the body. The cleaning assembly includes a housing defining a suction chamber and a suction channel extending from the suction chamber to a suction channel opening provided in a first side surface of the cleaning assembly, and a side suction nozzle mounted to an extension and retraction assembly that is arranged to allow the side suction nozzle to be moved between an extended position. The side suction nozzle includes a first resilient blade and a second resilient blade, the first resilient blade being arranged such that a surface of the first resilient blade is substantially forward facing and the second resilient blade being arranged such that a surface of the second resilient blade is substantially downward facing.

A robotic vacuum cleaning apparatus comprises: a head; a suction element to facilitate suction cleaning of a ground surface via the head; and a cleaning element.

A cleaning accessory for a vacuum cleaner comprises a housing having a first air inlet on an underside of the housing and an air outlet and a first airflow path between the first air inlet and the air outlet. The cleaning accessory also comprises at least one cleaning brush having at least one flexible cleaning element projecting outwards from a side of the housing. The cleaning accessory also comprises at least one side air inlet on the side of the housing and a second airflow path between the at least one side inlet and the air outlet. The at least one flexible cleaning element is arranged to engage a surface to be cleaned adjacent to the at least one side air inlet.

A nozzle for a cleaner has a nozzle main body including an intake channel to suction air. The nozzle includes first and second rotary cleaning units spaced apart from each other in a lateral direction under the nozzle main body. Each of the first and second rotary cleaning units includes a rotary plate coupled to a dust cloth. The nozzle further includes a first driving device to drive the first rotary cleaning unit and a second driving device to drive the second rotary cleaning unit. The nozzle includes a water tank to store water. Further, the nozzle has a water supply channel to supply water in the water tank to the rotary cleaning units. The nozzle has a water pump and a pump motor to drive the water pump to pump the water to the dust cloth.

A nozzle for a cleaner has a nozzle housing including a suction flow path configured to allow air and dust to flow therethrough. A water tank is mounted on the nozzle housing to store water. The nozzle also has first and second rotation cleaning units arranged on a lower side of the nozzle housing. Each of the first and second rotation cleaning units include a rotation plate coupled to a mop. The nozzle includes a first driving device that has a first driving motor to drive the first rotation cleaning unit. The nozzle also includes a second driving device that has a second driving motor to drive the second rotation cleaning unit. Further, the nozzle has a water discharge port provided at a bottom of the nozzle housing to supply water in the water tank to each of the first and second rotation cleaning units.

The nozzle of a cleaner includes a nozzle main body which has a suction flow path for suctioning air. A plurality of rotation cleaning units are rotatably connected to the nozzle main body, and a plurality of driving devices drive the plurality of rotation cleaning units. A water tank is mounted on the nozzle main body and supplies water to each of the rotation cleaning units. A water supply flow path supplies water from the water tank to each of the rotation cleaning units.

A suction tool includes: a hollow cylindrical main pipe having: a rear end side connected to a vacuum cleaner main body; a front end portion in which a main suction port is formed; and a hollow cylindrical sub pipe having: a rear end side at which an inside of the hollow cylindrical sub pipe communicates with an inside of the main pipe; and a front end portion in which a sub suction port is formed. The sub pipe is movable between a retracted position in which the front end portion of the sub pipe is arranged so as to be retracted from the front end portion of the main pipe, and a use position in which the front end portion of the sub pipe is arranged so as to protrude from the front end portion of the main pipe along an axial direction of the main pipe.
