Abstract :
This kind of wall cleaning robot has two wheels that can be driven respectively, two vacuum pumps, and one negative suction disc with one mechanic-servo air-sealed ring. Some key techniques on kinematics and hydrodynamics of the robot are proposed in this paper. Aimed at the actual situations for wall cleaning works, this paper presented a sort of physical cleaning method, and analyzes its advantages. In order to let the robot finish its work perfectly, we developed a sort of suitable operation device with cleaning, water-saving and environment protection functions
