Automatic cleaning system
First Claim
1. An automatic cleaning system comprising:
- a self-propelled cleaner; and
a radio wave generating device for generating a radio wave of a predetermined wavelength;
said radio wave generating device being adapted to be able to change strength of the radio wave to be generated, according to a predetermined operation;
said self-propelled cleaner comprising;
a body;
a cleaner mechanism provided at said body;
said cleaner mechanism including a main brush, a main brush motor for causing said main brush to be rotationally driven, side brushes, and a side brush motor for causing said side brushes to be rotationally driven;
a drive mechanism for realizing steering and driving of said body;
said driven mechanism including drive motors for causing said body to be travel-driven;
a radio wave receiver circuit for receiving the radio wave generated from said radio wave generating device;
a radio wave-strength measuring circuit for measuring strength of the radio wave received by said radio wave receiver circuit; and
a noise suppressing control processor for reducing noise generated from said body in use of said self-propelled cleaner, by causing the number of revolutions of said drive motors, main brush motor and side brush motor to be reduced or for causing said body to be moved to an area in which radio wave-strength measured by said radio wave-strength measuring circuit does not exceeds a predetermined threshold level, when the radio wave-strength measured by said radio wave-strength measuring circuit exceeds the predetermined threshold level.

Abstract
The automatic cleaning system according to the present invention comprises a radio wave generating device 70, a radio wave receiver antenna 61 for receiving a radio wave transmitted from the radio wave generating device 70, and a radio wave-strength measuring circuit 62 for measuring strength of the radio wave received by the radio wave receiver antenna 61. When radio wave-strength measured by the radio wave-strength measuring circuit 62 exceeds a predetermined threshold level, the number of revolutions of drive wheel motors 42R, 42L, a main brush motor 52, a side brush motor 58 and a suction motor 55 which are provided at a body BD of the self-propelled cleaner 10 are reduced, and loudness of a speaker 29b is reduced.
