摘要： A robotic surface treating device that can perform carpet sweeping, hard-surface dry sweeping/wiping, and hard-surface sweeping/mopping is disclosed. The robotic surface treating device includes a sweeper brush, a dust bin for collecting debris from the brush, a reel-to-reel sheet of cleaning material, and a fluid delivery system for delivering fluid from a fluid reservoir onto the sheet of cleaning material and/or onto the surface to be treated. The dust bin, reel-to-reel sheet of cleaning material, and the fluid reservoir are separately installed from the top of the device, and may be separately removed for replacement.

摘要： Tread structures, wave motion navigational controls, and ramp up recovery controls are provided to an autonomous floor cleaner to reduce wheel slippage. The floor cleaner delivers liquid to the floor as part of the cleaning process. Wheels on the device are provided with relatively deep peripheral grooves to minimize the contact surfaces of a sprocket wheel and to accommodate the layer of liquid on the floor. In the event of wheel slippage, or to prevent wheel slippage, the device is designed to move forward with a slight side-to-side wave action caused by periodically altering the relative speeds of two drive wheels. There is also provided a slippage recovery mode where the drive wheels shut down or greatly slow when severe slippage is sensed, followed by a slow ramp up of speed.

摘要翻译： 轮胎结构，波浪运动导航控制和升降恢复控制提供给自动地板清洁器，以减少车轮打滑。 作为清洁过程的一部分，地板清洁剂将液体输送到地板。 装置上的轮子设置有相对较深的周边凹槽，以使链轮的接触表面最小化并且将液体层容纳在地板上。 在车轮打滑的情况下，或者为了防止车轮打滑，该装置被设计成由周期性地改变两个驱动轮的相对速度引起的轻微的侧向波动作向前移动。 还提供了一种滑动恢复模式，其中当感测到严重的滑动时，驱动轮关闭或大大减慢，随后缓慢升高速度。
