Abstract
The present invention relates to a robot cleaner having a cable sensor, and more particularly, to an obstacle detecting sensor of a robot cleaner, the robot cleaner main body of which is continuously moved and cleaned by a setting automatically set by a user; A cable sensor installed at an outer circumference of the main body of the robot cleaner and generating a signal by external pressure to sense an object around the robot cleaner; A sensor connector installed between the cable sensor and the robot cleaner main body to transmit a voltage generated from the cable sensor to a controller configured in the robot cleaner main body, and to connect the cable sensor to the robot cleaner main body; And a bumper installed between the outer periphery of the robot cleaner body and the cable sensor to protect the robot cleaner body from impact of collision when the robot cleaner body hits a wall or an obstacle. It's about a robot cleaner.
Description
The present invention relates to a robot cleaner having a cable sensor, and more particularly, to an obstacle detecting sensor of a robot cleaner, the robot cleaner main body of which is continuously moved and cleaned by a setting automatically set by a user; A cable sensor installed at an outer circumference of the main body of the robot cleaner and generating a voltage by an external pressure to sense an object around the robot cleaner; A sensor connector installed between the cable sensor and the robot cleaner main body to transmit a signal generated from a cable sensor to a controller configured in the robot cleaner main body, and to connect the cable sensor to the robot cleaner main body; And a bumper installed between the outer periphery of the robot cleaner body and the cable sensor to protect the robot cleaner body from impact of collision when the robot cleaner body hits a wall or an obstacle. It's about a robot cleaner.
In general, a robot cleaner detects a cleaning area and an obstacle by using a sensor by a command of a control unit, automatically cleans by driving the cleaning area, and the battery power inside the device is exhausted. When the charging unit is moved to a charging station provided separately at a predetermined position, and after the charging is completed, the cleaning device returns to the original position where the cleaning was performed again.
In addition, the robot cleaner detects an obstacle in the cleaning area and cleans the obstacle before driving the cleaning area. However, in some cases, the robot cleaner may encounter an obstacle not detected in advance while driving. In this case, the bumper is installed on the front surface of the main body and the driving information is generated at the same time as the controller detects the bumper and runs to avoid obstacles.
A general robot cleaner detects and avoids obstacles and walls around it as a sensor, and it does not detect any obstacles or people around it and the cleaner is broken. Because of the use of sensors, signal processing is complicated and the sensors are very expensive.
The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, and install a bumper surrounding the outer peripheral edge of the robot cleaner, the cable sensor is installed on the inside of the bumper to detect an external obstacle in all directions The purpose is to provide a robot cleaner equipped with.
The present invention is to install a bumper surrounding the outer periphery of the robot cleaner, a cable sensor is installed inside the bumper to detect the external obstacles in all directions, so that the bumper absorbs external shocks It protects the robot cleaner and detects the collision with obstacles located around the cleaner by the cable sensor installed inside the bumper, thereby avoiding the robot cleaner from being damaged and improving the cleaning efficiency.
The present invention provides an obstacle detecting sensor of a robot cleaner, the robot cleaner main body (10) of cleaning and continuously moving by a setting automatically set by a user; A
