A mobile disinfection cart contains: a body, a drive system, a water absorption rake, a brush disc, a lid, an air inlet defined on a rear end of the lid, a sterilization structure accommodated in the cover, located above the chassis, facing the drive system, and communicating with the air inlet, an air outlet defined on the lid, an air conduit communicating with the sterilization structure and the air outlet. The mobile disinfection cart further contains a filter fixed in an air conduit, a storage tank secured on the body and communicating with the brush disc, an accommodation box disposed on the body and being in communication with the sterilization structure, and a power supply fixed on the body and electrically connected with the drive system and the sterilization structure.

Embodiments include a surface maintenance machine, comprising a maintenance tool chamber comprising a first side, a second side, a third side and a fourth side. A rotary broom is housed in the maintenance tool chamber and substantially enclosed by the first, second, third and fourth sides thereof. The rotary broom sweeps particulate from the surface. A vacuum system generates vacuum for drawing particulate swept by the rotary broom. The vacuum system is positioned proximal to the first side. A skirt assembly extends substantially around the second, third and fourth sides of the maintenance tool chamber. The skirt assembly has a vacuum passage defined therein and in fluid communication with the vacuum system to direct air flow into the vacuum passage, thereby drawing particulate into the vacuum passage and preventing particulate accumulation at portions of the second, third and fourth sides that are distal to the vacuum system.

A device in a floor processing machine, which is drivable along a floor and has a number of floor processing tools rotatably driven by an engine with a coupling between a shaft of the engine and a shaft of a disc carrying the floor processing tools. The coupling is formed of an elastic, hole-shaped coupling ring which is slotted transversely to its circumferential direction and is connectable by its edge portions to the engine shaft and to a shaft of the coupling, respectively, the coupling ring being openable at its slotted portion for application and removal of the coupling ring to and from connection portions of the engine shaft and coupling shaft.

A system and method can be provided for detecting the status of one or more components and/or systems of, for example, a manual, semi-autonomous, or fully autonomous cleaning device or the like. Embodiments described herein relate to a system that provides semi-autonomous cleaning of surfaces by a semi-autonomous cleaning device. The system provides for improved reliable obstacle detection and avoidance, improved sensing, improved design, improved failure detection, advanced diagnostics and expandability capabilities.

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 side brush for a vacuum cleaner includes a brush core and at least ten bristle clusters regularly distributed over a circumferential surface of the brush core.

A robotic mop includes one or more mop assemblies that may be used for support, mobility, and/or scrubbing. The mop assemblies may be operated to both scrub and move the robotic mop along the intended path. For example, the robotic mop may operate the mop assemblies in this way by rotating the mop assemblies in one or more directions at various different speeds, by tilting the mop assemblies (whether or not while rotating the mop assemblies at the time), and so on. In this way, the robotic mop may be able to move while scrubbing with various amounts of force without disrupting navigation.

A nozzle for a cleaner includes a nozzle housing including a suction flow path through which air including dust flows and at least a portion of which extends in a front and rear direction. First and second rotation cleaning units are arranged on the lower side of the nozzle housing to be spaced apart from each other in a lateral direction. Each of the first and second rotation cleaning units includes a rotation plate adapted for attachment of a mop. A first driving device including a first driving motor drives the first rotation cleaning unit and a second driving device including a second driving motor drives the second rotation cleaning unit. A water tank mounted on the nozzle stores water to be supplied to the mop.

The present disclosure provides a movable electric device. The movable electric device includes a movable device body and a contact detection electrode. The movable device body has an electric drive means. The contact detection electrode is mounted on the movable device body. When the contact detection electrode _contacts diffusible dirt, a resistance, capacitance or impedance of the contact detection electrode varies.

A cleaner includes a body forming an external appearance, and a spin-mop cleaning module configured to support the body and including at least one spin-mop provided so as to come into contact with a floor while rotating in a clockwise direction or in a counterclockwise direction when viewed from an upper side. The inclination angle of a lower surface of the spin mop is changeable relative to a horizontal plane.
