The present invention relates to a duster cloth for a cleaning robot and a cleaning robot using the duster cloth. The duster cloth comprises a detachable connection part (21) close to a base of the robot, a wiping cloth (22) close to a surface to be cleaned, and an elastic sealing layer located between the detachable connection part (21) and the wiping cloth (22).

The elastic sealing layer is attached to both the detachable connection part (21) and the wiping cloth (22). The elastic sealing layer is made from a foamed EPDM material (23), an integral skin sponge (33) or a common sponge (43), wherein a sealing film (24) is arranged on at least one side of the common sponge (43). The detachable connection part (21) may be a Velcro. With the structure of the elastic sealing layer between the detachable connection part and the wiping cloth, the duster cloth has good elasticity, and the air-tightness of the negative pressure chamber of the cleaning robot is greatly improved.

A frame body may be parallel to and proximate with an external surface of a structure and extend substantially horizontally from a first side to a second side. A connecting portion may be provided to be attached to a cable to provide for vertical movement of the frame body. A robotic arm may be affixed proximate to a bottom of the frame body and be able to move horizontally during treatment of the external surface. Moreover, the robotic arm may extend to an end proximate with the external surface, and a cleaning portion may be attached to the robotic arm near the end proximate with the external surface. The robotic arm may rotate, vertically moving the cleaning portion during treatment of the external surface. In addition, the cleaning portion may be separately rotated to remain substantially parallel to and proximate with the external surface during rotation of the robotic arm.

A cleaning method includes controlling an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to fly to a region of a wall body according to a path to be cleaned, and, in response to detecting a cleaning prohibition identifier associated with the region, recognizing the region as a cleaning prohibition region and controlling the UAV to fly over the cleaning prohibition region without cleaning the cleaning prohibition region.

A vertical surface cleaning device comprising a main body, a cleaning arm, a cleaning head, and leg mechanisms with grippers. The cleaning head applies a cleaning fluid on a surface to carry out a cleaning operation. A waste collector is provided to collect a waste material arising from the cleaning operation. The grippers may remain in a grip or in a release state. The segments of the leg mechanisms are articulatable to configure a first group of the leg mechanisms to stably hold the main body at a first place with the grippers remaining in the grip state. A second group of the leg mechanisms move in a desired direction with their grippers in release state while the first group stably holds the main body. The first group of the leg mechanisms then moves in the same direction while the second group holds the main body at a second place.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a cleaning method, a window wiping robot, and a storage medium. According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, when a window wiping task needs to be performed, the window wiping robot firstly spins to detect a boundary of a glass window to be cleaned. If the boundary of the glass window to be cleaned is detected during spinning, the window wiping robot performs the window wiping task directly along the boundary. The cleaning mode may save the boundary detection time and help to improve the cleaning efficiency when starting to perform the window wiping task without detecting the boundary up, down, left, and right.
