#vacuum cleaner robots

[thehmn]

One of the offices where I clean got robot vacuums. The first time I showed up and saw them buzzing around the people working there looked all apologetic but I could not have been more thrilled about it!

People who have never worked as cleaners are always really focused on the cleaning toilet part when in reality that’s the least of it. It would be like being focused on nurses having to clean bums. When I think of my job it’s 70% cleaning floors in my head. It takes up so much time that could be way better spent. Those little robot angels mean I can get straight to washing floors and suddenly the whole place is so much cleaner because even if they got the robots that wash the floors too I wouldn’t have less work, I’d just have more time to clean coffee splatter off the fucking doors and window frames! More robot vacuums in workplaces please!

Unrelated, but I always inform the owners if I find signs of mice in a business. I kept telling this one business that a mouse was chewing up the trash bag in the kitchen and they were like “yeah yeah we’ll take care of it” but they never did and today a huge mumba of a yellow-necked mouse fell out of the bag as I pulled it out of the trash can and it’s been a while since I laughed that hard. I’m not afraid of mice or rats other than I don’t want them to bite me so I got out of the way and let it run off and I’m like “I’ve told them a million times that you and your family is here so fuck it. Godspeed little buddy” There’s your start to that children’s book about a magical relationship between a mouse and a human I know you always wanted to write.

Just cleaner things ya know?

You’d never know that Ryuji of all people would be excited to receive a 🧹 vacuum cleaner as a gift 🤣 These are all reactions from Ryuji Sakamoto for all the gifts you can give to him (of course, some gifts may lead to more hilarious scenes than others lol) Unfortunately, even in a relationship thanks to the Gay Joker Mod, Ryuji is still not impressed about getting a 💍 Heart Ring as a gift 😂

Imagine Lokitty riding a robot vacuum cleaner through the house.

Alternatively, imagine Loki in either his Aesir or Jötun form riding a robot vacuum cleaner through the house. Just… sitting cross-legged, pretending to ride into battle…

"What if we call it Akina?"

My parents bought a robotic vacuum cleaner. They're getting on in age, so it's a good addition to the household. It and I met last week, so I asked what its name was. Turned out they'd just named it after our family name. Boring. "It needs a name," I said.

Today my dad says unprompted, "I think we need to give it a different name. Our last name is a bit stupid." My mum says it's fine, but I agree. I'm drawing a blank, though, until my dad suggests the perfect name.

"What if we call it Akina?"

I like to think he's been pondering on this for two weeks.

In the early 2000s, my parents bought a GPS system for the car. I dubbed her 'Akina'. She was named for an AI system in a space ship in the Yoko Tsuno comic album series that I'm still obsessed with twenty years later.

It stuck. When my parents were going anywhere new, we'd say, "Don't forget Akina." "Akina will guide you." "Where is Akina?" I was sad when new cars with built-in GPS systems replaced the old ones. I always kind of felt like she was my baby.

I've missed Akina. I'm glad she's back.

VERO: Vacuum-cleaner-Equipped Quadruped RObot for Efficient Litter Removal

18 July 2024

IIT' Dynamic Legged Systems lab developed VERO (Vacuum-cleaner Equipped RObot) that can assist people to clean beaches, small alleys and parks, particularly for removing cigarette butts, in terrains that are hard to reach for wheeled and tracked robots.

The onboard vacuum cleaner is connected with hoses to the four legs.

Vacuum cleaner nozzles are attached to each foot, allowing the robot to collect the cigarettes efficiently while walking, by simply stepping close to the detected object and activating the vacuum.

The character M-O from the movie WALL-E hates dirty floors, just like IRL robot vacuum cleaners such as the iRobot Roomba.

How to Clean Cartridge and Sand Pool Filters In Perth?

Keeping your pool's water clean is mandatory and your ethical responsibility as well. This can be assured quickly by using high-quality pool filters in Perth. Another responsibility is keeping the pool filter clean because only a clean pool filter will generate crystal clear and clean water. This blog post focuses on the importance of keeping pool filters clean, and then we will also learn some steps to clean a pool filter.

Why It Is Necessary To Keep The Pool Filter Clean?

Experts of pool filters services say that the average life of a filter is around two years, depending on how it is used and how much maintenance is offered. Several factors contribute to decreasing the lifespan of these pool filters, and some can trim this life to almost half. Keeping pool filters clean means cutting the amount of debris and dirt in a swimming pool and making it more pleasurable and ideal for swimming.

How To Clean Pool Filters In Perth?

Cleaning pool filters involve different steps used for different types of pools. Let us understand the method of cleaning cartridge pool filters.

How To Clean Your Cartridge Pool Filter?

Vendors of pool service in Perth say that cartridge-based pool filters are the easiest to clean and maintain. The reason is they require deep cleaning just once or twice every year. However, if the pool is large and the pool filter is used more than usual, more maintenance would be required.

Experts perform this by turning 'off' the pool pumps in Perth and the air relief valve. This will remove all the trapped air, and then they release the mechanism holding everything together. They remove the top filter and set the cartridge aside to clean easily using a garden hose or a cleaner. Alternatively, let it soak overnight using a cleaning mixture and then rinse properly before fitting it back.

How To Clean Your Sand Filter?

Experts of pool filter services consider cleaning sand filters as the most formidable challenge, as they require backwashing or cleaning using very light chemicals. The first warning sign of your sand filter requiring cleaning is the increasing PSI of your pool. Similarly, if the water has started looking a bit cloudy, you must understand that your pool filters in Perth require some cleaning.

Experts of pool filter services will need a hose and a cleaning agent to start backwashing to remove all the debris. Before starting, they will turn the pump off and the valve towards the filter. They then turn the pump back 'on' for a few seconds to ensure that the cleaner reaches the filter area. Once the cleaner has achieved its destination, the pump is turned 'off' and left overnight.

This is followed by repeating backwashing again to remove all the debris and dirt. Once it is confirmed that the sand-based pool filters in Perth are completely cleaned, they will turn the system back 'on' and make it clean your pool again.

Knock out Dust and Allergens from Floors and Indoor Air

Vacuum cleaners are a convenience that many of us have come to rely on. From corded and cordless vacuums to upright and canister vacuums, Sears has much to offer in terms of appliances that help maintain living spaces in tip-top condition.

Choose from a Wide Collection

Shark, Bissell, iRobot and other trusted brands offer their latest in vacuum cleaners. Cordless vacuum cleaners offer the convenience of mobility, which is limited with corded vacuums since you’ll have to switch power points around the house, restaurant or office to clean different rooms. However, corded vacuums have a higher dust collecting capacity when compared to cordless ones. In addition, the canister doesn't need to be emptied frequently, which limits your exposure to allergy-causing particles. Try the Shark Navigator Lift-Away Speed Upright Vacuum with Self-Cleaning Brush Roll for unbelievable maneuverability on bare floors, carpets and furniture. The self-cleaning brush roll removes hair nonstop, while Anti-Allergen Complete Seal technology and a HEPA filter zap dust and indoor allergens.

A portable vacuum is a smart choice since you it lets you clean a mess wherever it’s made. The Bissell 2033 Featherweight Lightweight Stick Vacuum is one such appliance that converts into a hand vacuum in a single step, letting you store or transport it easily. Weighing as little as 3lb, this machine has a dirt cup that’s easy to empty and a versatile crevice tool for corners and narrow spots.

Clean with Next-Gen Technology

Robotic vacuums go a step further to simplify housekeeping and give you more time to do other chores or enjoy some downtime. If you suffer from joint or mobility issues, using a robot makes sense. Powered with wi-fi, these vacuum cleaners like the iRobot ROOMBA675 R675020 Roomba 675 Robot Vacuum with Patented Dirt Detect sensors, are compatible with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and other Smart devices, and can do almost all the work of cleaning on their own. This self-charging machine can sense differences in surfaces and adjust accordingly. Irrespective of hardwood or carpet floors, the robot can comfortably suck in any debris, small or large. You can track the vacuum even when you're not home using the iRobot HOME app on your smartphone and come back later to see thoroughly cleaned floors.

Filters are essential for the proper functioning of any vacuum cleaner. HEPA filter kits are high performing and trap microbes and even the finest particles as small as 0.3 microns. Other attachments like brush rolls, motor belts, hoses, crevice tools, cleaning pads and replacement bags are always available on Sears. You can find the exact part needed for any of the popular vacuum cleaners.
