Abstract: A distance measuring device is applicable to a sweeping robot and includes a signal source disposed near a front end edge of a bottom surface of the sweeping robot and configured to transmit a cone-shaped detection signal at a preset angle; a first signal receiver disposed at a first position near the signal source and configured to receive a reflected signal of the cone-shaped detection signal reflected by the ground, wherein the first position is a corresponding position when a projected area of the cone-shaped detection signal on the ground is maximum; and a second signal receiver disposed at a second position near the first signal receiver and configured to receive a reflected signal of the cone-shaped detection signal reflected by a cliff surface, wherein the second position is a corresponding position when a projected area of the cone-shaped detection signal on the cliff surface is maximum.
Abstract: A method of controlling a cleaning robot includes: acquiring a marked position of a charging station in a map; controlling the cleaning robot to travel to a front position of the marked position and identifying the charging station; when the charging station is not identified, generating a finding path based on the marked position; and controlling the cleaning robot to travel in accordance with the finding path and identifying the charging station in a traveling process.
Abstract: A robot includes a controller configured to: detect a virtual wall signal; identify a virtual wall according to a signal threshold and the virtual wall signal; and when the virtual wall is identified, adjust the signal threshold, and control the robot to travel along an outer side of the virtual wall according to an adjusted signal threshold and the virtual wall signal, such that a driving wheel of the robot is located at the outer side of the virtual wall when the robot is traveling along the outer side of the virtual wall; wherein the outer side of the virtual wall is a side of the virtual wall within an active region of the robot.
Abstract: A debris cleaning mechanism and a cleaning device, comprising a driving mechanism, a transmission mechanism, and a debris scraping mechanism. The transmission mechanism comprises a gear box, and the gear box is connected to the driving mechanism by means of an input shaft and connected to the debris scraping mechanism by means of an output shaft; the debris scraping mechanism comprises a debris scraping body, and the output shaft is in transmission connection with the debris scraping body to drive the debris scraping body to move; the debris scraping body is provided with a first and/or a second debris scraping strip. The cleaning device comprises a debris barrel, a debris barrel cover, the debris cleaning mechanism, and a cover opening mechanism; when a rack of the transmission mechanism moves to a preset position along the axial direction of the debris barrel, the cover opening mechanism is pushed to move.
Abstract: 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.
