STAND DER TECHNIKSTATE OF TECHNOLOGY
Grundsätzlich reinigt ein Reinigungsroboter, während er sich selbständig ohne Anwenderunterstützung bewegt. Ist die Kraft des Reinigers aufgebraucht, bewegt sich der Reiniger zu einem Ladegerät und lädt sich selbstständig auf. Nach dem Ladevorgang kehrt er zum Reinigungsbereich zurück und setzt den Reinigungsvorgang fort.Basically cleans a cleaning robot while he is self-employed without user support emotional. When the power of the cleaner is used up, it moves Cleaner to a charger and loads self-employed on. After charging, he returns to the cleaning area and sets continue the cleaning process.

Mit dem Reiniger nach dem Stand der Technik lassen sich große Schmutzmengen schwer aufnehmen und aufsaugen, weil er den Schmutz mit einer Bürste aufnehmen muss. Darüber hinaus lassen sich große Schmutzmengen schwer vollständig aufnehmen, so dass die Reinigungsleistung dadurch herabgesetzt sein kann.With The cleaner of the prior art can be large amounts of dirt difficult to pick up and absorb because it absorbs the dirt with a brush got to. About that In addition, you can get big ones Dirt heavy complete absorb, so that the cleaning performance be reduced can.
Wird die Leistung eines Saugmotors zur Verstärkung der Saugkraft erhöht, führt das zu einem Anstieg der Leistungsaufnahme und der Herstellungskosten sowie zu einer erhöhten Geräuschentwicklung.Becomes Increases the power of a suction motor to increase the suction, this leads an increase in power consumption and manufacturing costs as well as to an increased Noise.

ZUSAMMENFASSUNG DER ERFINDUNGSUMMARY THE INVENTION
Ausgehend von dem zuvor beschriebenen Stand der Technik ist es die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einen Reinigungsroboter zur vollautomatischen Reinigung von Böden dahingehend weiterzuentwickeln, dass der Schmutz leichter aufgenommen werden kann und damit die Reinigungsleistung erhöht werden kann.outgoing It is the object of the prior art described above the present invention, a cleaning robot for fully automatic Cleaning of floors to further develop so that the dirt is more easily absorbed can be and thus the cleaning performance can be increased.
Die zuvor hergeleitete und aufgezeigte Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass das Saugsystem versehen ist mit mindestens zwei Bürsten, die an einer bestimmten Seite des Sauglochs eingerichtet sind, um den auf dem Boden haftenden Schmutz aufzunehmen und in das Saugloch zu bürsten, und Antriebseinheiten, die an einer bestimmten Seite des Reinigerkörpers eingerichtet sind, um die Bürsten unabhängig voneinander anzutreiben, wobei die Antriebseinheiten durch die Steuereinheit unabhängig voneinander regelbar sind, derart, dass die Drehrichtung der Bürsten automatisch zwischen gleichläufiger Drehrichtung und gegenläufiger Drehrichtung umschaltbar ist.The previously derived and indicated object according to the invention solved, that the suction system is provided with at least two brushes, the on a particular side of the suction hole are set to the to absorb dirt sticking to the floor and into the suction hole to brush, and drive units arranged on a certain side of the cleaner body, around the brushes independently to drive each other, wherein the drive units by the control unit independently are controllable from each other, such that the direction of rotation of the brushes automatically between corotating Direction of rotation and opposite Direction of rotation is switchable.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen des erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsroboters sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.advantageous Embodiments of the cleaning robot according to the invention are Subject of the dependent claims.

In einer anderen Ausführungsform besteht die Kraftübertragungseinheit aus Antriebsrädern, die jeweils an den Drehwellen des ersten und des zweiten Antriebsmotors befestigt sind, und aus getriebenen Rädern, die jeweils mit den Antriebsrädern in Eingriff stehen und an der ersten und der zweiten Gelenkwelle befestigt sind.In another embodiment consists of the power transmission unit from drive wheels, in each case on the rotary shafts of the first and the second drive motor are fixed, and made of driven wheels, each engaging with the drive wheels stand and are attached to the first and second propeller shaft.
Das beschriebene Saugsystem des Reinigers beschränkt sich nicht auf den Reinigungsroboter, sondern kann als allgemeiner Reiniger gemäß dem Gedanken und Umfang der folgenden Ansprüche eingesetzt werden.The described suction system of the cleaner is not limited to the cleaning robot, but can be considered general cleaner according to the thought and scope of following claims be used.
Bei dem Saugsystem des Reinigers gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung sind eine erste und eine zweite Bürste so an einem Saugloch angeordnet, dass sie sich einander gegenüberstehen und jeweils durch eine erste und eine zweite Antriebseinheit betrieben werden. Auch wenn die Schmutzteile groß sind oder wenn viele Schmutzstellen vorhanden sind, ist eine vollständige Reinigung möglich und die Reinigungsleistung damit verbesserbar.at the suction system of the cleaner according to the present Invention, a first and a second brush are arranged on a suction hole, that they face each other and each operated by a first and a second drive unit become. Even if the dirt particles are large or if many dirt spots are present, is a complete Cleaning possible and the cleaning performance can be improved.
Darüber hinaus ist die Drehrichtung der ersten und der zweiten Bürste entsprechend den gegebenen Reinigungsbedingungen durch Antreiben der ersten und der zweiten Bürste unabhängig voneinander durch die erste und die zweite Antriebseinheit einzeln regelbar. Das ermöglicht eine Anpassung an die gegebenen Reinigungsbedingungen und erleichtert das Reinigen.Furthermore is the direction of rotation of the first and the second brush accordingly the given cleaning conditions by driving the first and the second brush independently from each other by the first and the second drive unit individually adjustable. This allows an adaptation to the given cleaning conditions and facilitates the cleaning.
