A robotic floor cleaning device that features a controlled liquid releasing mechanism. A rotatable cylinder with at least one aperture for storing a limited quantity of liquid is connected to a non-propelling wheel of the robotic floor cleaning device. There is a passage below the cylinder and between the cylinder and a drainage mechanism. The cylinder is within or adjacent to a liquid reservoir. Each time an aperture is exposed to the liquid within the reservoir it fills with liquid. As the wheel turns the connected cylinder is rotated until the aperture is adjacent to the passage. The liquid in the aperture will flow through the passage and enter the drainage mechanism which disperses the liquid to the working surface. The release of liquid is halted when the connected wheel stops turning.

Robotic floor cleaning device with controlled liquid release mechanism

Provided is a robot, including: a main brush; a peripheral brush; a first actuator; a first sensor; one or more processors; and memory storing instructions that when executed by at least some of the one or more processors effectuate operations including: determining a first location of the robot; obtaining first data indicative of an environmental characteristic of the first location; adjusting a first operational parameter of the first actuator based on the sensed first data; and forming or updating a debris map of the working environment based on data output by the first sensor or another sensor configured to collect data indicative of an existence of debris on a floor, wherein the debris map at least indicates areas covered by the robot and with a high level of debris accumulation; and an application of a communication device paired with the robot and configured to at least display the debris map.

Method for autonomously controlling speed of components and functions of a robot

Provided is a robot including main and peripheral brushes; a first actuator; a first sensor; one or more processors; and memory storing instructions that when executed by the one or more processors effectuate operations including: determining a first location of the robot in a working environment; obtaining, with the first sensor or another sensor, first data indicative of an environmental characteristic of the first location; adjusting a first operational parameter of the first actuator based on the sensed first data to cause the first operational parameter to be in a first adjusted state while the robot is at the first location; and forming or updating a debris map of the working environment based on data output by the first sensor or the another sensor configured to collect data indicative of an existence of debris on a floor of the working environment over at least one cleaning session.

A front suspension wheel for mobile robotic devices that can be compressed into or decompressed out of a main body of a mobile robotic device to facilitate driving the mobile robotic device over obstacles, thresholds and the like. The wheel will provide the mobile robotic device with information such as how fast the wheel is traveling. The wheel is easily removable by hand by the user.

Front suspension wheel for mobile robotic devices

Provided is a robotic device including: a body; an electronic computing device housed within the body; and at least two wheel suspension systems coupled with the body including: a first suspension system including: a frame; a rotating arm pivotally coupled to the frame on a first end and coupled to a wheel on a second end; and an extension spring coupled with the rotating arm on a third end and the frame on a fourth end, wherein the extension spring is extended when the wheel is retracted; and a second suspension system including: a base slidingly coupled with the frame; a plurality of vertically positioned extension springs coupled with the frame on a fifth end and the base on a sixth end; at least one set of paired magnets, with at least one magnet affixed to the frame and paired to at least one magnet affixed to the base.
