A floor cleaning machine with a base, which has a driven cleaning element, and an operating bar that is pivotably attached to the base via a joint and extends between a proximal end and an actuating end. The joint includes a bellows, which is coupled at its opposite ends to the base and the operating bar, a first supporting element, which is arranged inside the bellows and is attached to and points away from the base, and a second supporting element, which is arranged inside the bellows and is attached to and points away from the proximal end of the operating bar. A free end of one of the first and second supporting elements has a projection, while a free end of the other of the first and second supporting elements has a receiving recess that receives the projection and guides it for pivoting movement.

A floor cleaning machine having a cleaning element arrangement with inner and outer cleaning elements that include inner and outer cleaning bodies, respectively, that extend jointly in the cleaning body plane and have first and second receiving openings, respectively. The inner and outer cleaning elements extend from the inner and outer cleaning bodies, respectively, away from the cleaning body plane to one side thereof. The inner cleaning body is arranged in the second receiving opening. The output shaft extends with an output shaft section into both the first and second receiving openings. First and second eccentric elements are attached to the output shaft section and to the inner and outer cleaning bodies, respectively, so that when the output shaft is rotated, the inner and outer cleaning bodies perform eccentric movements that are phase-shifted with respect to one another.

A turntable structure includes a cleaning turntable having one side connected with a cleaning piece; an adjusting component slidably connected with the cleaning turntable along a target direction, and located on another side of the cleaning turntable opposite to the cleaning piece, the adjusting component having a side far away from the cleaning turntable and connected with a driving mechanism of a robot to rotate the cleaning turntable, the target direction being parallel to a rotating shaft of the cleaning turntable; a pressure unit provided between the cleaning turntable and the adjusting component and for pressing against the cleaning turntable; and a first limiting structure configured to limit a sliding distance of the cleaning turntable relative to the adjusting component along the target direction.

The disclosure relates to a cleaning robot and a control method. The cleaning robot may include: a body; a moving mechanism; a power module; a mopping module; and a control module; and further includes a liquid supply device, where the control module can control, based on a current mopping condition, the liquid supply device to convey a liquid to the mopping module. The beneficial effects of the present disclosure are that the cleaning robot can complete mopping work more efficiently, to reduce burden of a user and improve the degree of automation and the user experience of the cleaning robot. The cleaning robot can intelligently and autonomously control, based on the current mopping condition, the liquid supply device to convey a liquid to a mop, thereby prolonging the service life of a ground material such as a floor in home of the user.

The cleaning device includes a water injection member and a mopping cloth cleaning member. The water injection member is configured to wet the mopping cloth of a cleaning robot. The mopping cloth cleaning member which reciprocates up and down to flap the mopping cloth of the cleaning robot, in order to clean the mopping cloth of the cleaning robot.

A mobile floor cleaning robot includes a body defining a forward drive direction, a drive system, a cleaning system, and a controller. The cleaning system includes a pad holder, a reservoir, a sprayer, and a cleaning system. The pad holder has a bottom surface for receiving a cleaning pad. The reservoir holds a volume of fluid, and the sprayer sprays the fluid forward the pad holder. The controller is in communication with the drive and cleaning systems. The controller executes a cleaning routine that includes driving in the forward direction a first distance to a first location, then driving in a reverse drive direction a second distance to a second location. From the second location, the robot sprays fluid in the forward drive direction but rearward the first location. The robot then drives in alternating forward and reverse drive directions while smearing the cleaning pad along the floor surface.
