Abstract: A supply device for supplying a device that can be moved on a driving surface with a material supplied through a supply line. The supply device has a plug with an electric plug contact element that extends along a plug axis and is coupled to a plug receptacle of the mobile device by a linear joining movement, and a supply line with a valve, and detects a coupled state of the plug with the plug receptacle by an electric plug contact element. In the coupled state the valve is actuated. The supply device has a nozzle arranged on the supply line and is coupled to an inlet port of the mobile device. A feeding holder keeps the nozzle and the plug in a defined position and orientation relative to each other so that when coupling the plug to the plug receptacle the nozzle couples to the inlet port. The movement device makes the feeding holder with the plug and nozzle at least height adjustable and movable in the direction of the joining movement along a joining axis.

Abstract: Disclosed is control of a floor treatment machine and treating floor surfaces, including a planning mode, allowing at least two zones to be defined on a floor surface to be treated, a first node to be defined in each zone and a connection path from at least one zone to a first node of another zone to be defined. At least one region of the zone edge can be input as a virtual obstacle, a direct connection between the first node of the defined zone and the first node of another zone being interrupted by the input region on the basis of real and virtual obstacles. After the complete treatment of a zone, the virtual obstacle on the zone edge is canceled and a switch to another zone is performed. Thus, zones distributed in any way can be treated in succession without the intervention of an operating person.
