Abstract

L'invention concerne un robot nettoyeur. Le robot nettoyeur comprend : une unité d'entraînement pour la fourniture de puissance ; des premier et second éléments rotatifs qui tournent respectivement autour de premier et second arbres rotatifs grâce à la puissance de l'unité d'entraînement et auxquels un appareil de nettoyage pour un nettoyage par voie humide peut être fixé ; une unité de commande permettant de commander l'unité d'entraînement de manière à faire tourner au moins l'un des premier et second éléments rotatifs afin d'entraîner le robot nettoyeur dans une direction prédéterminée ; et une unité de nettoyage à sec comprenant un orifice d'aspiration destiné à aspirer des particules libres collectées à partir d'une surface à nettoyer pendant l'entraînement du robot nettoyeur selon le mouvement de rotation des premier et second éléments rotatifs.
