A floor cleaner including a vacuum source and a base movable over a surface to be cleaned. The base includes a suction inlet in fluid communication with the vacuum source, a brushroll chamber, a brushroll in the brushroll chamber, the brushroll rotatable about a brushroll axis, a brushroll cover releaseably attached to the base, the brushroll cover removable to access the brushroll chamber and the brushroll. The base further includes a first actuator movable in a first direction from a latched position and to an unlatched position and a second actuator movable in a second direction, opposite the first direction, from a latched position and an unlatched position. The brushroll cover is secured to the base when the first and second actuators are in the latched positions and the brushroll cover is removable from the base when the first and second actuators are in the unlatched positions.

The cleaning scraping strip includes a connecting portion, the connecting portion has a first end and a second end, and the first end of the connecting portion is installed on the bottom of the cleaning robot; and a working portion, wherein the working portion has a first end and a second end, the first end of the working portion is connected to the second end of the connecting portion, and the second end of the working portion is configured to contact the ground; a connection between the first end of the working portion and the second end of the connecting portion defines a notch, and the notch is arranged on the side of the connection away from the advancing direction of the cleaning robot, the working portion is bendable along the notch so that at least part of the working portion abuts against the connecting portion.

A cleaning robot includes a main body, a drive assembly and a cleaning assembly. The main body includes a bottom part. The cleaning assembly includes a mounting part, a wiping part and a release part. The mounting part is positioned on the bottom part. The mounting part includes a first rail, a second rail, and a first positioning part. The wiping part is positioned on the mounting part and includes a second positioning part, the wiping part is movable from first ends of the first rail and the second rail to second ends thereof until the second positioning part abuts against the first positioning part whereby the wiping part is fixed on the mounting part. The release part is positioned on the mounting part and configured to separate the second positioning part from the first positioning part whereby the wiping part is detached from the mounting part.

A mobile cleaner includes a dust housing, an agitator, and a dustpan. The dust housing has a collection opening facing a surface. The agitator is rotatably disposed within the dust housing and is exposed to the surface through the collection opening. The agitator is configured to move foreign material from the floor into the dust housing. The dustpan directs the foreign material moved by the agitator into the dust housing. The dustpan extends around a portion of an outer circumferential surface of the agitator and is configured to rotate independent of the agitator.

A robot configured to perceive a model of an environment, including: a chassis; a set of wheels; a plurality of sensors; a processor; and memory storing instructions that when executed by the processor effectuates operations including: capturing a plurality of data while the robot moves within the environment; perceiving the model of the environment based on at least a portion of the plurality of data, the model being a top view of the environment; storing the model of the environment in a memory accessible to the processor; and transmitting the model of the environment and a status of the robot to an application of a smartphone previously paired with the robot.

An autonomous floor cleaner or floor cleaning robot can include an autonomously moveable housing and a drive system for autonomously moving the autonomously moveable housing over a surface to be cleaned based on inputs from a controller. A brush chamber and a debris receptacle can be formed as a unitary assembly removable from the autonomously moveable housing.

An autonomous floor cleaner can include a housing, a drive system for autonomously moving the housing over the surface to be cleaned, a controller for controlling the operation of the autonomous floor cleaner, and warning system for issuing a warning based on the detection of moisture inside the robot. Methods for issuing a warning are disclosed.

A surface cleaning apparatus includes a recovery tank, a suction nozzle in fluid communication with the recovery tank, and a suction source in fluid communication with the suction nozzle and the recovery tank to generate a working air path to transport debris-containing fluid including air and liquid from the suction nozzle into the recovery tank. An air/liquid separator can be provided within the recovery tank for separating liquid from air in the debris-containing fluid.

An extraction cleaner for a floor surface includes an extraction nozzle. The extraction nozzle that defines a fluid flow path having an elongated nozzle opening, and includes one or more stiffening elements that stiffens the walls around the nozzle opening to prevent collapsing or deformation of the extraction nozzle during use.
