The present invention relates to a multifunctional scrubbing device for easily and comfortably scrubbing difficult to reach areas. The device includes an extensible handle having locking pins for retracting and extending the handle, a scrub head having scouring element or pad in the form of bristles or sponge and of different textures for scrubbing. The handle is pivotally coupled to the scrub head using a pivot lock to allow the handle to pivotally move relative to the scrub head. The handle has an ergonomic grip for easy handling and a ring hook for hanging the device on a wall-mounted hook when the device is not use. In one embodiment, the device has one or more cleaning solution storage reservoirs disposed in the scrub head for dispensing cleaning or other solutions on the scouring element or pad.

A vacuum cleaner is disclosed. The vacuum cleaner according to embodiments of the present disclosure includes a main body and a suction nozzle. The suction nozzle includes a housing, a button, a rotating brush, and a detachable cover. The housing includes an insertion hole. The button includes a first protrusion. The detachable cover includes a cover body and a slider. The cover body includes an insertion member, a second protrusion, and a rail. The rotating brush is rotatably mounted to the slider. The slider is mounted on the rail so as to be movable in a first direction. The insertion member is inserted into the insertion hole in the first direction. As the button is moved, the first protrusion is selectively positioned in a movement path in the first direction of the second protrusion.

A bathtub cleaner assembly includes a cleaner that has a handle portion extending upwardly from a reservoir portion that contains a fluid cleaning solution. A first scrubbing unit is coupled to the reservoir portion of the cleaner to engage a basal wall of the bathtub when the cleaner is positioned in the bathtub. The first scrubbing unit rotates when the first scrubbing unit is turned on to scrub the basal wall of the bathtub. A pair of second scrubbing units is each movably integrated into the reservoir portion of the cleaner to scrub a respective lateral wall of the bathtub when the cleaner is positioned in the bathtub. A spray unit is integrated into the cleaner to spray the fluid cleaning solution onto the first scrubbing unit and the second scrubbing units.

A handheld cleaning device includes a surface-moving portion and an upright portion. The surface-moving portion is in contact with a surface to be cleaned and is connected with the upright portion. The upright portion is configured to move the surface-moving portion in a case in which the surface-moving portion is in operation. The handheld cleaning device further includes a power battery configured to supply power to the handheld cleaning device. The surface-moving portion further includes at least two non-coaxial brushrolls configured to clean stains on the surface to be cleaned. The rotation speed of each brushroll is less than 3000 r/min.

A mobile cleaning robot can include a body, a drive wheel, and a plurality of skids. The drive wheel can be connected to the body and can be engageable with a floor surface of an environment. The drive wheel can be operable to move the mobile cleaning robot about an environment. The skids can be separate skids that can be connected to the body and can be engageable with the floor surface to support, together with the drive wheel, the mobile cleaning robot with respect to the floor surface.

A cleaner includes a main body and a suction head connected to the main body to suck foreign objects into the main body therethrough, the suction head including a housing including a suction port, and a drum module disposed in the housing, and to be rotated to scatter the foreign objects to be sucked through the suction port so that the scattered foreign objects are drawn into the housing through the suction port, and the drum module including a drum body, a first blade coupled to outer circumference of the drum body, a second blade separated from the first blade in a circumferential direction of the drum body and having a mass greater than a mass of the first blade, and a mass compensation member arranged on the outer circumference of the drum body to compensate for a difference in mass between the first blade and the second blade.

Provided is a robot including a chassis; a set of wheels coupled to the chassis; a plurality of sensors; a processor; and a tangible, non-transitory, machine readable medium storing instructions that when executed by the processor effectuates operations. The operations include capturing, with an image sensor disposed on the robot, a plurality of images of an environment of the robot as the robot navigates within the environment; identifying, with the processor, an obstacle type of an obstacle captured in an image based on a comparison between features of the obstacle and features of obstacles with different obstacles types stored in a database; and determining, with the processor, an action of the robot based on the obstacle type of the obstacle.

A cleaning machine may include: a first brush comprising a first brush shaft extending in a left-right direction and a first brush body held by the first brush shaft; a second brush comprising a second brush shaft extending in the left-right direction and a second brush body held on the second brush shaft; a brush supporting member supporting each of the first brush and the second brush such that the first brush and the second brush are rotatable; a body supporting the brush supporting member such that the brush supporting member is pivotable; and a pivot mechanism configured to pivot the brush supporting member with respect to the body. At least the first brush may move with respect to the body in an up-down direction when the brush supporting member pivots with respect to the body.

A cleaning device includes a rolling brush mounted on a housing and can be in rolling contact with the ground. A waste collection region is integrally or separately provided in the housing, and the waste collection region is provided with a collection inlet provided corresponding to the rolling brush. Waste brought up by the rolling contact is collected into the waste collection region under the rotation action of the rolling brush. The housing is provided with one or more scraping guiders connected to the collection inlet, and each of the scraping guiders is in flexible pressure contact with the rolling brush or the ground, and is configured to scrape off residual waste absorbed by the rolling brush or residual waste on the ground and transfer the residual waste into the waste collection region.
