Abstract
A robotic pool cleaner includes a housing having an inlet and a discharge port, and an interior chamber with a filter therein. Rotatably-mounted supports guide the cleaner along a pool surface. A water pump includes a drive shaft having a first end coupled to a propeller. The water pump draws water and debris from beneath the cleaner through the inlet, such that debris is retained by the filter and filtered water exits through the discharge port. A power-wash assembly includes a transmission for transferring rotational movement from the pump drive shaft to a drive shaft of a centrifugal pump. The centrifugal pump has an inlet in fluid communication with filtered water from the interior chamber and an outlet in fluid communication with a nozzle positioned beneath the housing to discharge filtered water in a water jet to dislodge and lift debris from the surface of the pool.
