Abstract: A roller cover for a floor-cleaning machine with a housing, a cleaning roller, a drive, a dirt container, and a dirt strip. The housing having a rear wall and defining an opening that faces a floor surface during operation of the roller cover. The cleaning roller includes a cleaning element that extends through the opening. The drive rotationally powers the cleaning roller such that the cleaning roller rotates toward the rear wall. The dirt container is disposed in the housing and faces away from the rear wall. The dirt strip has a bottom edge that is arranged on that side of a longitudinal axis of the cleaning roller that faces the rear wall and configured to engage a surface of a floor. The dirt strip is movably coupled to the housing to permit changes in the distance between the bottom edge and the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A floor-cleaning robot having a chassis for moving the floor-cleaning robot in a direction of travel over a surface to be cleaned, a cleaning implement, a control unit and first and second measuring devices for three-dimensional distance measurement. Each of the first and second measuring devices is configured to sense distance between the measuring device and a plurality of surface elements within a respective solid angle that is spanned from the measuring device. The first and second measuring devices are aligned in such a manner that the direction of travel runs through the first solid angle. The second solid angle is offset in relation to the first solid angle. The control unit is designed to generate and/or update a representation of the surface to be cleaned, on the basis of the distances from surface elements sensed by first and second measuring devices.
