CLEANER AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240130592 titled 'CLEANER AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a cleaner with a wet cloth brush that has a pad installed below its bottom surface. The wet cloth brush includes a pad motor to rotate the pad, a water supplier to spray water, a light source to illuminate the pad, and a processor to control the rotation speed of the pad motor and the amount of water sprayed based on the intensity of light reflected from the pad.
- Wet cloth brush with installable pad below bottom surface
- Pad motor to rotate the pad
- Water supplier to spray water
- Light source to illuminate the pad
- Processor to control rotation speed and water amount based on light intensity
Potential Applications
The technology can be used in household cleaning appliances, commercial cleaning equipment, and industrial cleaning machines.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the issue of inefficient cleaning by optimizing the rotation speed of the pad motor and the amount of water sprayed based on the cleanliness of the surface.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved cleaning efficiency, reduced water consumption, and better cleaning results due to the intelligent control system.
Potential Commercial Applications
The technology can be applied in robotic floor cleaners, automatic car wash systems, and industrial scrubbing machines for large surface areas.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be traditional cleaning machines with fixed rotation speeds and water spraying systems that do not adjust based on surface cleanliness.
Unanswered Questions
How does the processor determine the intensity of light reflected from the pad?
The processor likely uses sensors to measure the intensity of light reflected from the pad, which is then used to adjust the cleaning parameters.
What materials are used to manufacture the wet cloth brush and pad?
The wet cloth brush and pad are likely made from durable and water-resistant materials such as plastic, rubber, and microfiber fabric to withstand repeated use and exposure to water.
Original Abstract Submitted
a cleaner including a wet cloth brush to which a pad is installable so as to be below a bottom surface of the wet cloth brush, the wet cloth brush including a pad motor configured to rotate a pad installed to the wet cloth brush, a water supplier configured to spray water to a surface to be cleaned, a light source configured to irradiate light to the pad installed to the wet cloth brush, and a processor configured to, based on an intensity of the light reflected from the pad, control a rotation speed of the pad motor, and/or control an amount of water sprayed by the water supplier to the surface to be cleaned.
