Abstract
A side brush for a robotic vacuum cleaner includes a brush core, a plurality of bristle clusters having a first length, and a plurality of further bristle clusters having a shorter length than the first length. The plurality of bristle clusters and the plurality of further bristle clusters are regularly distributed over a circumferential surface of the brush core.

A side brush for a robotic vacuum cleaner, the side brush comprising:
- a brush core;
- a plurality of bristle clusters having a first length;
- and
- a plurality of further bristle clusters having a shorter length than the first length,
- wherein the plurality of bristle clusters and the plurality of further bristle clusters are regularly distributed over a circumferential surface of the brush core,
- wherein a group of further bristle clusters is attached in each case to the brush core between two bristle clusters having the first length, and
- wherein the bristle clusters and the further bristle clusters are arranged on the brush core in at least one plane, the at least one plane being parallel to a surface to be cleaned.
A side brush for a robotic vacuum cleaner, the side brush comprising:
- a brush core;
- a plurality of bristle clusters having a first length;
- and
- a plurality of further bristle clusters having a shorter length than the first length,
- wherein the plurality of bristle clusters and the plurality of further bristle clusters are regularly distributed over a circumferential surface of the brush core, and
- wherein the bristle clusters and the further bristle clusters are each fastened to the brush core in an orientation that is tangential to the circumferential surface of the brush core.
A robotic vacuum cleaner comprising at least one side brush, the at least one side brush comprising:
- a brush core;
- a plurality of bristle clusters having a first length;
- and
- a plurality of further bristle clusters having a shorter length than the first length,
- wherein the plurality of bristle clusters and the plurality of further bristle clusters are regularly distributed over a circumferential surface of the brush core.
