ROBOTISED CLEANING SYSTEM (VERSIONS) Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC A47L9/28 

FIELD: instrument making.

SUBSTANCE: robotised system is designed for surface cleaning and comprises robot vacuum cleaner designed for cleaning at automatic displacement on cleaned surface, and charging station arranged with the possibility of connection to robot vacuum cleaner for charging of accumulator by electric energy installed in robot vacuum cleaner and having setting switch for selective input of the first value of threshold height. Robot vacuum cleaner comprises control unit designed for reception of the first value of threshold height, preservation of this first value of threshold height in memorising device, comparison of the second value of threshold height detected by detector of robot vacuum cleaner height during its movement, to the first value of threshold height, control of robot vacuum cleaner with provision of its displacement during threshold overcoming, if the second value of threshold height is equal to the first value of threshold height or less than it, and control of robot vacuum cleaner with provision of its displacement after reverse movement and turn, if the second value of threshold height exceeds the first value of threshold height. In a version of robotised system realisation, robot vacuum cleaner comprises setting switch for selective input of the first value of threshold height and control unit intended for preservation of the first input value of threshold height, comparison of the second value of threshold height detected by detector of robot vacuum cleaner height in case of its displacement, to the first value of threshold height, control of robot vacuum cleaner with provision of its displacement during threshold overcoming, if the second value of threshold height is equal to the first value of threshold height or less, and control of robot vacuum cleaner with provision of its displacement after reverse motion and turn, if the second value of threshold height exceeds the first value of threshold height. Setting switch comprises switch in body with double-row location of leads or rotary switch.

EFFECT: provision of robotised system of unimpeded overcoming of thresholds independently on their height, which may vary because of different building designs.
