A self-moving cleaning device includes: a base; a mobile module adjacent to the base and configured to contact a surface when the self-moving cleaning device moves on the surface; a vacuum module arranged over the base; a dust box arranged over the base and connected to the vacuum module, the dust box including a first opening and a second opening; a first suction port arranged on the base and including a first suction inlet connected to the first opening; a second suction port arranged on the base and including a second suction inlet connected to the second opening, the first suction port disposed between a front side of the base and the second suction port; a roller brush device arranged on the base and within the second suction port; and an air duct, wherein the first suction port is connected to the dust box through the air duct to thereby connect the first suction inlet to the first opening.

A method of controlling a moving robot is provided. The method of controlling a moving robot includes the steps of: (a) performing a basic motion of the moving robot which moves on a rotating mop; (b) measuring the slip rate of the moving robot; and (c) controlling the travel of the moving robot.

A mobile cleaning robot can include a body, a drive wheel, and a wheel stop. The drive wheel can be connected to the body and can be operable to move the mobile cleaning robot about an environment. The wheel stop can be movable with respect to the body and the drive wheel between a stop position and a release position. The wheel stop can be engageable with the drive wheel in the stop position to limit vertical travel of the drive wheel with respect to the body.

A cleaning assembly for a cleaning robot is provided. The cleaning assembly includes a motor, a transmission mechanism coupled with the motor, and a cleaning device comprising a shaft having a first gear coupled with the transmission mechanism and a cleaning module mounted to an end of the shaft. The transmission mechanism is configured to drive the shaft to rotate through the first gear. The shaft is configured to move axially. The cleaning module is configured to clean a surface area.

An autonomous cleaning device, includes: a mobile platform, configured to move autonomously on a cleaning surface; and a cleaning module, disposed on the mobile platform and including: a wet cleaning module, configured to clean at least part of the cleaning surface in a wet cleaning mode; and a lifting structure, connected to the wet cleaning module and configured to enable the wet cleaning module to move upward or downward with respect to the mobile platform; wherein the wet cleaning module includes: a cleaning head configured to clean the cleaning surface; and a driving unit configured to drive the cleaning head to conduct reciprocating movement on a target surface which indicates a part of the cleaning surface.

An automatic cleaning device includes a mobile platform, a lifting station, a cleaning module, a liquid supplying module, and a collecting module. The mobile platform is configured to automatically move in a target direction on a surface to be cleaned. The lifting station is connected to the mobile platform and configured to move upwards or downwards with respect to the mobile platform. The cleaning module is connected to the lifting station and configured to clean the surface to be cleaned; the liquid supplying module is configured to provide cleaning liquid to the surface to be cleaned; and the collecting module is configured to collect the cleaning liquid. A height of the cleaning module of the automatic cleaning device is adjustable, and the automatic cleaning device has a great cleaning strength and is capable of collecting dirty cleaning liquid, thus, the automatic cleaning device can be applied broadly.

A cleaning assembly includes a cleaning device, a mounting base, and a swing arm. The cleaning device is movable in a vertical direction, and a positioning part is provided on the cleaning device. The mounting base is located at one side of the cleaning device. The swing arm has one end pivotally connected to the mounting base and another end connected to the positioning part. The swing arm is configured to swing with a vertical movement of the positioning part.

A mobile disinfection device (200) includes a disinfection chamber (203) coupled to a propulsion system (228) configured for moving along a surface (236) to be disinfected. The disinfection chamber defines a closed distal end (205), an open proximal end (206) and a surrounding wall (207) impervious to the radiation and having opposing front and rear portions and opposing side portions, respective proximal front, rear and side edges of which are propelled by the propulsion system close to the surface to be disinfected. A radiation source (260) is mounted inside the disinfection chamber for irradiating the surface through the open proximal end. The propulsion system includes a peripheral seal (304) surrounding a proximal edge of the wall and configured to obstruct radiation that might otherwise escape from inside the disinfection chamber.

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 designed to clean a surface includes a cleaner nozzle to face the surface to be cleaned and to perform a cleaning action on the surface, where the cleaner nozzle accommodates at least one rotatably arranged brush including flexible brush elements having tip portions which are intended to contact the surface. The cleaning device includes a force-actuable mechanism that is responsive to a change of a user force on the cleaning device acting to press the cleaner nozzle against the surface when the cleaner nozzle is in an operational position on the surface, and that is functional to cause a change of a value of at least one parameter of operation of the cleaning device, thereby enabling more intuitive handling of the cleaning device by a user.
