US 2026/0167156 A1 · APPARATUS FOR ADAPTIVE CLEANING OF A VEHICLE CABIN AND METHOD THEREOF

Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a system for cleaning and maintaining air quality of a cabin of a vehicle. The system comprises sensors configured to detect conditions related to quality of air and occupancy within the cabin. The system comprises a plurality of cleaning units placed at various positions within the cabin, comprising: one or more sonic wave generators, one or more cyclonic vacuum units, and electrostatic dust collectors. The system further comprises a control unit configured to receive, in real time, from the sensors, inputs pertaining to the detected conditions during an ON state of the vehicle, and adaptively operate the plurality of cleaning units based on the inputs received from the one or more sensors to clean and maintain the air quality of the cabin of the vehicle.

A system for cleaning and maintaining air quality of a cabin of a vehicle, the system comprising:

one or more sensors configured to detect conditions related to at least one of quality of air and occupancy within the cabin of the vehicle;
a plurality of cleaning units placed at various positions within the cabin, comprising:
one or more sonic wave generators configured to emit a high-frequency sonic wave to dislodge dirt and dust debris from surfaces and crevices;
one or more cyclonic vacuum units configured to ensure required suction to remove the dislodged debris within the cabin;
and
electrostatic dust collectors configured to attract and capture fine particulate matter and allergens from the cabin;
and
a control unit configured to:
receive, in real time, from the one or more sensors, inputs pertaining to the detected conditions during an ON state of the vehicle;
and
adaptively operate one or more of the plurality of cleaning units based on the inputs received from the one or more sensors to clean and maintain the air quality of the cabin of the vehicle.
