Abstract: A pool cleaning system is provided. The pool cleaning system includes a base station and a pool cleaning robot. The pool cleaning robot is provided with a filtering device and is separable from the base station. In a case where the pool cleaning robot is separated from the base station, a liquid in a pool is filtered by the filtering device.

Abstract: A pool cleaning robot and a control method therefor are disclosed. The pool cleaning robot includes a robot body, a buoyancy adjustment unit, and a first driving unit. The buoyancy adjustment unit and the first driving unit are arranged on the robot body or connected to the robot body. The buoyancy adjustment unit is provided to enable the pool cleaning robot to move back and forth between a water surface and a liquid-submerged surface. When the pool cleaning robot floats up to the water surface under the action of the buoyancy adjustment unit, the first driving unit is configured to drive the pool cleaning robot to move on the water surface. The pool cleaning robot of the present disclosure is provided with the buoyancy adjustment unit, which can increase or decrease the weight of the pool cleaning robot, such that the pool cleaning robot automatically floats up or dives down.

Abstract: A wall climbing method for an underwater cleaning device and an underwater cleaning device are disclosed. When the underwater cleaning device is about to start or has started wall climbing, a forward end of the device is caused to be slightly lifted or tend to be slightly lifted.

Abstract: A method for obtaining waterline information is disclosed. The method includes: obtaining waterline information by means of a detection unit of a pool cleaning robot, the pool cleaning robot moving on a pool wall or pool bottom of a pool, and the waterline information being used for representing a relative position between the pool cleaning robot and the waterline; determining a distance between the pool cleaning robot and the waterline on the basis of the waterline information; and controlling the pool cleaning robot on the basis of the distance between the pool cleaning robot and the waterline.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for reactively processing single nylon 6 composites. The processing method forms nylon 6 matrix over nylon 6 reinforcement by using anionic ring-opening polymerization of caprolactam.

Abstract: Processes and compounds are described herein for single polymer composites based on a process for making the single polymer composites that includes the steps of heating a matrix material to create polymer melt, cooling the polymer melt to below its Tm to create an undercooled polymer melt, or quasi-melt, and combining the melt with an enhancing or reinforcing material to produce a single polymer composite. The process can produce materials that do not have any degradation of the polymer characteristic of the enhancing material due to melting of the polymer in the enhancing material.

Abstract: Integrated multiaxial articles are formed of yarns arranged in multiaxial direction in a plurality of layers bound together by a set of through-the-layers yarns. Methods and apparatus of making same are presented. Hollow integrated multiaxial fabric and its variants are introduced.

Abstract: In one aspect of the invention, an integrated hollow fabric structure includes a body having an axis and a thickness along a direction perpendicular to the axis, at least first and second groups of yarns, the yarns of each group space-regularly disposed in layers, where the yarn layers of the at least two groups of yarns are alternately stacked and interlocked together, and embedded in the body, and a third group of yarns through the thickness of the body to interlock the layers together, where the positions and the pattern of interlocking vary according to the need.

Abstract: Integrated multiaxial articles have a prescribed integration pattern formed of winding yarns arranged in multiaxial direction at prescribed angles in a plurality of layers bound together by a set of through-the-layers binding yarns with yarns of non-crimp. Methods and apparatus of making same are presented. Hollow integrated multiaxial fabric and its variants are introduced.

Abstract: A method for fabricating multilayer fabrics having a prescribed integration pattern and an apparatus of implementing same. In one embodiment, the method include the steps of providing a plurality of winding yarn carriers arranged in a multilayer structure along a first direction and configured such that each winding yarn carrier is operably movable with respect to one another along a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction, forming a plurality of crossover points of the winding yarns by moving at least one winding yarn carrier along the second direction according to the integration pattern, transporting the binder yarns through the plurality of winding yarn layers at predetermined locations along the first direction, and locking the binder yarns in place, pushing the binder yarns toward the fell of the multilayer fabrics, and taking up the formed multilayer fabrics.
