Abstract
A station suctioning dust from the robot cleaner includes a docking suction port connectable to a robot cleaner, a dust container to store dust from the robot cleaner, a duct connected to the docking suction port and the dust container, a holder disposed in the dust container, and to which a dust bag is mountable, and a lever configured to hinder a connection of the holder and the duct while the dust bag is in a separated state from the holder, and the lever allows the connection of the holder and the duct while the dust bag is in a mounted state to the holder.
Claims13
A station for suctioning dust from a robot cleaner, comprising:
- a docking suction port to which a robot cleaner is connectable;
- a dust container to store dust from the robot cleaner when the robot cleaner is connected to the docking suction port;
- a duct connected to the docking suction port and the dust container;
- a cover member to open or close the dust container;
- a holder disposed in the dust container, and to which a dust bag is mountable;
- and
- a lever configured to separate a connection of the holder and the duct and thereby preventing the cover member from closing the dust container when the dust bag is not mounted to the holder, and to allow the connection of the holder and the duct thereby allowing the cover member to close the dust container when the dust bag is mounted to the holder.
A station for suctioning dust from a robot cleaner, comprising:
- a docking suction port to which a robot cleaner is connectable;
- a dust container to store dust from the robot cleaner when the robot cleaner is connected to the docking suction port;
- a duct connected to the docking suction port and the dust container;
- a cover member to open or close the dust container, the cover member including an interacting member protruded from an inner surface of the dust container;
- a holder disposed in the dust container, and to which a dust bag is mountable, the holder comprising a cover interacting part protruded on an upper part of the holder;
- and
- a lever configured to separate a connection of the holder and the duct and thereby preventing the cover member from closing the dust container based on an interaction between the interacting member and the cover interacting part when the dust bag is not mounted to the holder, and to allow the connection of the holder and the duct thereby allowing the cover member to close the dust container based on a non-interaction between the interacting member and the cover interacting part when the dust bag is mounted to the holder.
