Patent number: 10953985Abstract: A sensor module is assigned to a vehicle that can be displaced in a terrain or designed for being positioned in the terrain. The sensor module has a sensor system with sensors that acquire sensor data in a contactless fashion. The sensors are designed for detecting the spatial extent of the plant at a location in the terrain. The sensor data makes it possible to determine whether the plant should be pruned. To this end, the sensor data is evaluated by utilizing a knowledge database.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2018Date of Patent: March 23, 2021Assignee: Vorwerk & Co. Interholding GmbHInventors: Georg Hackert, Martin Helmich, Lorenz Hillen, Christian Holz, Gerhard Isenberg, Hendrik Koetz, Andrej Mosebach, Roman Ortmann, Robin Dulinski

Patent number: 10883838Abstract: A system has at least two self-traveling floor treatment apparatuses, wherein each of the floor treatment apparatuses features a navigation and self-localization device that is designed for generating an environment map based on environment data of the environment of the floor treatment apparatus, which is recorded by means of a detection device. In order to realize an advantageous cooperation between the floor treatment apparatuses, it is proposed that a common memory unit for storing environment maps and a computing unit are assigned to the floor treatment apparatuses, wherein the computing unit is designed for comparing an environment map of a first floor treatment apparatus with an environment map of a second floor treatment apparatus and/or with an environment map stored in the common memory unit and for specifying which of the environment maps is stored in the common memory unit and/or in a local memory of a floor treatment apparatus based on a defined selection criterion.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2018Date of Patent: January 5, 2021Assignee: Vorwerk & Co. Interholding GmbHInventors: Georg Hackert, Martin Helmich, Lorenz Hillen, Christian Holz, Gerhard Isenberg, Hendrik Koetz, Andrej Mosebach, Roman Ortmann, Robin Dulinski

Patent number: 10694912Abstract: A system has at least two floor treatment apparatuses for treating a surface in an automatically controlled fashion based on defined adjustment parameters of the floor treatment apparatus, wherein each of the floor treatment apparatuses features at least one detection device for detecting at least one detection parameter of the floor treatment apparatus and/or of an environment of the floor treatment apparatus. In order to enhance a system of this type in such a way that the floor treatment apparatuses advantageously cooperate and support one another, the system features a common database that is assigned to the floor treatment apparatuses. Detection parameters of at least two floor treatment apparatuses are stored in the database in association with the adjustment parameters of the respective floor treatment apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2018Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: VORWERK & CO.

Patent number: 10585408Abstract: A household appliance in the form of a food processor has a controller that controls the preparation of a meal according to a sequence of prescribed steps that includes comminuting, mixing or heating the meal or ingredients. The controller is designed and set up to output a control command for controlling an external cleaning device depending on a progress of the sequence of steps. The control command to the external device includes a cleaning instruction for the external device to effect cleaning in an area where the household appliance is located.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2018Date of Patent: March 10, 2020Assignee: Vorwerk & Co.

Patent number: 10562177Abstract: A system has at least two floor processing fixtures of one or several automatically moving floor processing devices for the automatically controlled processing of a surface. In order to further develop such a system in particular with the aim of having the floor processing fixtures advantageously interact and support each other, the system has a shared database allocated to the floor processing fixtures, which is stored in an external memory designed separately from the floor processing device, and in which operational activities for the floor processing fixtures are planned according to defined rules, as well as a central computing device allocated to the database, which plans operational activities according to defined rules.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2018Date of Patent: February 18, 2020Assignee: Vorwerk & Co. Interholding GmbHInventors: Georg Hackert, Martin Helmich, Lorenz Hillen, Christian Holz, Gerhard Isenberg, Hendrik Koetz, Andrej Mosebach, Roman Ortmann, Robin Dulinski

Publication number: 20190022854Abstract: A working device that can move self-sufficiently over terrain, which carries task-specific tools. The tools are allocated to different working modules. The different working modules can optionally be used by the working device. The working modules can be a watering tool, a cutting tool, a mowing tool, a sweeping tool, a fertilizer distributing tool or a soil treating tool. The plants are processed with the help of a planning aid which has a database. The planning aid is used to transmit task data to the working device.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 23, 2018Publication date: January 24, 2019Applicant: Vorwerk & Co.
