Today’s Patent – Moving Devices Used In Liquid And Pool Cleaning Robots

The said invention (US11946282B1) was invented by Shilei ZHANG and patented by USPTO on April 27th, 2023. Currently, it stands assigned to the Xingmai Innovation Technology Suzhou Co Ltd.

The disclosed invention is a multifunctional pool cleaning robot equipped with a versatile moving device capable of operating both above and below the water surface. It features a mode-switching mechanism that allows seamless transition between submerged and surface-level positions. The robot includes a dust box with an inlet for filtering and cleaning incoming water, and a control unit that orchestrates cleaning operations. Depending on the task—whether surface skimming or underwater debris removal—the control system determines the robot’s position and movement by adjusting the moving device accordingly. This innovative design enables efficient and automated pool maintenance, adapting dynamically to different cleaning needs.
