An autonomous cleaning robot (e.g., an autonomous vacuum) may clean an environment using a cleaning head that is self-actuated. The cleaning head includes an actuator assembly comprising an actuator configured to control rotation and vertical movement of a cleaning roller, a controller, and a cleaning roller having an elongated cylindrical length connected to the actuator assembly. The cleaning head also includes a computer processor connected to the actuator assembly and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that causes the computer processor to map the environment based on sensor data captured by the autonomous vacuum. The computer processor may determine an optimal height for the cleaning head based on the map and instruct the actuator assembly to adjust the height of the cleaning head.

A vacuum cleaner bag assembly is adapted to be removably disposed within a tank of a vacuum cleaner, and the bag assembly includes a panel assembly made from a first material and forming an enclosure having an interior volume, and an aperture extends through the panel assembly. A shield member may be disposed within the interior volume and secured to one or more portions of the panel assembly, and the shield member may comprise a second material that is different than the first material. The first material may have a wicking barrier that inhibits wicking when the bag assembly becomes wet. The shield member is adapted to protect a portion of the panel assembly when the vacuum cleaner bag assembly is disposed within the tank and, together with the wicking barrier and a properly chosen first material, enhances performance of the vacuum bag assembly when wet.

A surface cleaning apparatus includes a housing including an upright handle assembly and a base mounted to the upright handle assembly and adapted for movement across a surface to be cleaned. The surface cleaning apparatus is further provided with a fluid delivery system comprising a fluid dispenser configured to dispense fluid to a brushroll and at least one fluid delivery channel forming a portion of a fluid delivery pathway. The fluid delivery channel can extend adjacent to a portion of the suction nozzle assembly. An interference wiper interfaces with a portion of the brushroll to remove excess liquid from the brushroll.

A surface cleaning apparatus has a cyclone and a dirt collection chamber wherein the dirt collection chamber has a dirt collection chamber portion which is located axially spaced from the cyclone chamber and the dirt collection chamber portion has a transverse section in a plane transverse to the longitudinal axis of the cyclone that is annular.

The present disclosure provides a surface cleaning apparatus that includes a housing including a base adapted for movement across a surface to be cleaned, a fluid delivery system, and a recovery system. The surface cleaning apparatus can be configured to clean multiple surfaces, including hard and soft surfaces, and apparatus is provided with a base adapted for movement across a surface to be cleaned, a brushroll removably mounted within the base, and a brushroll latch for securing the brushroll to the base. The brushroll latch can be captured by a portion of a nozzle assembly to prevent unintended release of the brushroll.

A vacuum that couples to storage units is provided. The vacuum includes a motor, an internal compartment, and an inlet and outlet that provide fluid communication between the internal compartment and an exterior of the vacuum. The vacuum includes one or more mechanisms to protect internal components from water damage and to prevent debris from escaping the internal compartment when the vacuum is being transported.

Disclosed is a dust collector that includes a filter frame, a cartridge filter, an end cap, and a cover. The filter frame is provided with a center column. The end cap is provided with a bottom plate, a plurality of sliding slots, a plurality of first side walls, a plurality of baffles extending from the first side walls, and a plurality of clamping members. The cover is provided with a plurality of protruding members and a plurality of extending members. The protruding members are operative to rotate along with the cover along the sliding slots. The filter frame includes an accommodating space configured for accommodating the filter frame. The bottom plate is provided with a plurality of through openings that run through the bottom plate. The through openings are disposed opposite to the baffles and are configured to communicate between the sliding slots and the accommodating space. The extending members extend into the through openings. The bottom plate and baffles are spaced apart. The first side walls are connected between the bottom plate and the baffles. The clamping members respectively extend out from the corresponding first side walls and are provided with ribs. An outer peripheral surface of the center column is provided with a thread. As the cover rotates along a rotating direction relative to the end cap, the cover is operative to push the plurality of clamping members to move towards the center column, allowing the clamping members to clamp the center column and the ribs to be embedded into the thread of the center column.
