    摘要: The invention relates to a cleaning robot and a material identification method thereof, which is suitable for cleaning robots. The cleaning robot is pre-set with a threshold comparison table and comprises a plurality of comparison thresholds, wherein each comparison threshold defines an interval of accumulated energy information accumulated by the moving plane of different materials within a predetermined period of time. The cleaning robot generates accumulated energy information during the movement, so that the cleaning robot can find the comparison threshold corresponding to the accumulated energy information from the threshold comparison table, and then determines the material of the moving plane contacted by the cleaning robot.

    摘要: A fully floating contact redirecting device for a cleaning robot, wherein a contact unit is floatingly disposed on a surface of a robot body in a forward direction, and at least one sensing unit is respectively disposed on opposite sides of the contact unit in a direction opposite to the forward direction. An angle at which the robot body is retracted and turned to avoid a wall or an obstacle is determined by a position where the contact unit goes into contact with the sensing unit after the contact unit touches the wall or the obstacle, thereby solving the problem of going through multiple turns to move in an obstacle-free direction and improving the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning robot.

    摘要: A thin-type automatic cleaning device includes a main body, a fan module and a dust collecting box. The main body includes a placing chamber for receiving the fan module. The structural shape of the dust collecting box substantially assorts with that of the placing chamber in order to be received within the placing chamber. The lower casing is provided with a receiving cavity from the bottom side toward the interior of the dust collecting box to receive the fan module. The dust collecting box forms a nested structure with the fan module thereby to reduce the thickness of the device.

    摘要: A robotic vacuum cleaner includes a casing with a motor-driven wheel unit mounted on a lower major wall thereof, and a tactile sensor unit yieldable radially relative to the casing. An electrical control unit is operable to control the wheel unit to operate in a starting mode in which the casing is moved along a spiral path, and, upon receipt of a switching signal generated by the sensor unit in response to a contact of the sensor unit with an obstacle, controls the wheel unit to operate in an edge-cleaning mode in which the wheel unit is initially turned to a normal angle, is then driven to move forward a predetermined distance, is subsequently turned to an activating angle, and is moved towards the obstacle to permit contact of the sensor unit with the obstacle so as to result in generation of switch signal enabling the wheel unit to continue to operate in the edge-cleaning mode.
