SURFACE CLEANING APPARATUS WITH DRYING CYCLE

The present disclosure provides a surface cleaning apparatus that includes a recovery system that extracts liquid and debris with a drying cycle in which forced air flows through a recovery pathway of the recovery system to dry out components that remain wet and/or retain moisture after normal operation of the apparatus. The post-operation drying cycle can dry out components such as an agitator or brushroll, a brush chamber, a suction nozzle, a recovery tank, a filter, and any of the various conduits, ducts, and/or hoses fluidly coupling components of the recovery system together.

Removable cover for a robotic cleaning device

A device for covering a plurality of different sized robotic systems. The device can include a cover sized to at least partially fit over the robotic system; one or more sidewalls extended from the cover, wherein the one or more sidewalls is configured to removably engage with each of the plurality of different sized robotic systems; and one or more apertures in the cover and/or the one or more sidewalls. The one or more apertures are selectively positioned and sized so as to prevent obstructing the one or more onboard sensors of the respective robotic system when the device is in an assembled state with the respective robotic system.

A hand vacuum cleaner has a cyclone, a suction motor and fan assembly downstream of the cyclone and a post motor filter downstream of the suction motor and fan assembly. The post-motor filter housing has an openable bottom panel provided in the lower end of the hand vacuum cleaner.

COMBINATION VACUUM AND AIR PURIFIER SYSTEM AND METHOD
20200353402 · 2020-11-12 · ·

A system for environmental maintenance includes a vacuum unit, an air purifier unit, a controller communicatively connected to the vacuum unit and the air purifier unit, a sweep sensor communicatively connected to the controller, and a movement sensor communicatively connected to the controller. The sweep sensor detects debris and sweeper in detectable vicinity of the sweep sensor and the controller turns on the vacuum unit upon detection by the sweep sensor. The controller turns on the air purifier unit upon the vacuum unit being turned on, and the air purifier unit cycles on for period as programmed in the controller. The movement sensor detects movement in detectable vicinity of the movement sensor and the controller turns on the air purifier unit upon detection by the sweep sensor, if the air purifier is not already turned on.

Hand carryable surface cleaning apparatus

A hand vacuum cleaner has a suction motor and fan assembly, an air treatment member and a pre-motor filter. The front end of the air treatment member is forward of the pre-motor filter media and the front end of the suction motor is forward of the pre-motor filter media.

Hand carryable surface cleaning apparatus

A hand vacuum cleaner may have an air treatment member and a pre-motor filter downstream from the air treatment member. A suction motor and fan assembly may be is positioned downstream of and below the pre-motor filter, a post motor filter may be positioned downstream of the suction motor and fan assembly and in the lower end of the hand vacuum cleaner. A clean air outlet may be positioned below the suction motor and fan assembly whereby air travels downwardly from the suction motor and fan assembly and through the post motor filter to the clean air outlet.

AIR PURIFIER AND AIR PURIFYING SYSTEM

A handheld air purifier may include a suction body provided with a suction surface having a first and second frame, a fan to suction air, and a filter to filter suctioned air, a bending portion extending rearward from the suction body to bend upward, and a handle extending further from the bending portion and held by the user. The second frame may be provided behind the first frame and may include a protrusion that penetrates through the first frame to create a gap between the suction surface and a garment being treated to promote a free airflow through the handheld air purifier.

Evacuation Station

An evacuation station includes a base and a canister removably attached to the base. The base includes a ramp having an inclined surface for receiving a robotic cleaner having a debris bin. The ramp defines an evacuation intake opening arranged to pneumatically interface with the debris bin. The base also includes a first conduit portion pneumatically connected to the evacuation intake opening, an air mover having an inlet and an exhaust, and a particle filter pneumatically the exhaust of the air mover. The canister includes a second conduit portion arranged to pneumatically interface with the first conduit portion to form a pneumatic debris intake conduit, an exhaust conduit arranged to pneumatically connect to the inlet of the air mover when the canister is attached to the base, and a separator in pneumatic communication with the second conduit portion.
