A mobile cleaning robot can include a body and a cleaning assembly. The body can include a suction duct. The cleaning assembly can be operable to ingest debris from a surface of an environment. The cleaning assembly can include a dustpan engageable with the surface to direct debris toward the suction duct. The dust pan can be movable with respect to the body.

A vacuum cleaner includes a housing having a suction nozzle opening, a source of suction in fluid communication with the suction nozzle opening for generating a working air stream through the housing, and a multiply-adjustable debris collecting blade coupled along the rear of the suction nozzle opening for collecting debris.

A vacuum cleaner is disclosed. The vacuum cleaner comprises a cleaner body, a suction nozzle, a connection pipe, a first tool assembly, a second tool assembly, and a pipe assembly. The first tool assembly is detachably fixed to a body suction port of the cleaner body and has a first suction port which communicates with the body suction port. The second tool assembly is detachably fixed to the first tool assembly and has a second suction port which communicates with the body suction port. The pipe assembly is fixed to the rear side of the connection pipe and detachably fixed to the second tool assembly. The first tool assembly, the second tool assembly, or the pipe assembly can be selectively detached from the cleaner body, and each tool (suction port) can be effectively used.

A cleaner for a cleaning robot cleaning a floor surface while traveling includes a support member, two parallel link mechanisms fixed to both right and left sides of the support member so as to be swingable in an upward-downward direction of the cleaning robot, a first connecting pin interconnecting joint portions of the two parallel link mechanisms, a second connecting pin disposed above the first connecting pin and interconnecting other joint portions of the two parallel link mechanisms, a brush unit attached to the first connecting pin and having a brush grounded to the floor surface, and a lifting and lowering unit lifting and lowering the brush unit by swinging the parallel link mechanism in the upward-downward direction.

A cleaner for a cleaning robot cleaning a floor surface while traveling includes a support member, a brush unit attached to the support member and having a brush grounded to the floor surface, and a flip-up mechanism flipping up the brush such that the brush is directed in a direction perpendicular to an upward-downward direction of the cleaning robot.

An autonomous surface cleaning apparatus includes a body, a drive system carried by the body, and a cleaning assembly disposed at a front of the body. The cleaning assembly includes a housing defining a suction chamber and a suction channel extending from the suction chamber to a suction channel opening provided in a first side surface of the cleaning assembly, and a side suction nozzle mounted to an extension and retraction assembly that is arranged to allow the side suction nozzle to be moved between an extended position. The side suction nozzle includes a first resilient blade and a second resilient blade, the first resilient blade being arranged such that a surface of the first resilient blade is substantially forward facing and the second resilient blade being arranged such that a surface of the second resilient blade is substantially downward facing.
