**Summary Related To Our Product Releated Patent:-

1. A Survey on Techniques and Applications of Window-Cleaning Robots:-

A)Introduction:- Nowadays, more and more robots have been developed to assist or replace
humans in various dangerous and difficult tasks, such as construction, manufacturing, security
inspection, and so on. The robots are expected to adapt to different environments and situations. As
clean windows represent an important aspect of human’s life quality, window-cleaning work has
been conducted to facilitate a better living and working environment. The traditional cleaning work
is carried out by human workers. For example, the worker carries a water-soaked scraper to clean
the exterior windows of highrise buildings from top to bottom. Such window-cleaning work is a
heavy-duty and dangerous job.

B)Diagram for a control system for a window cleaing robot:-

C)Summary:- This paper provides a state-of-the-art survey of recent development on window-
cleaning robots. It illustrates the feasibility of the robot solution from the aspects of safety, cleaning
efficiency, and economic benefits. First, the application environments of the window-cleaning robot
are classified into domestic use and high-rise building use. According to different application
environments, the performance characteristics of the robots are analyzed. Second, the popular
locomotion and mechanisms of the robots are classified. Their advantages and disadvantages, as
well as their applications, are discussed. Next, as an end-effector of the window-cleaning robot, the
cleaning mechanism is dictated. The cleaning mechanism should not only have sufficient degrees of
freedom and water recovery, but also ensure large enough contact force.

D)Claim:- To enable the application of the window-cleaning robot at home, small offices, and shops,
we claimed some chracterstics about the robot :-

1) The robot should be compact in structure, light in weight, and easy to carry.

2) To ensure the safety, there should be no slipping and falling during work.

3) It provides high efficiency and quality of cleaning.

4) It allows autonomous cleaning and easy manipulation.

2)Design of a Window Cleaning Device and Its Operating Mechanism:-

A) Introduction :-An increased interest in building aesthetics has led to a rise in building
maintenance for cleaning purposes [1], and to cope with this trend, diverse types of cleaning devices
have been developed. The devices developed to maintain a clean façade thus far target the entire
façade of a building. As such, they do not provide a satisfactory solution for clients on lower floors
who want to clean their windows on a regular basis to keep a higher level of cleanliness. In addition,
large, expensive equipment is used in most cases, and it is almost impossible to apply it to
conventional buildings. For this reason, it is necessary to develop a cleaning device that can be
attached on a specific window on a specific floor [2]. The cleaning tool attached to this cleaning
device (wiper, roller brush) must avoid obstacles such as a profile; for this reason, it is very
important to design a cleaning device and tool that can be operated effectively.

B)Mechanism Diagram:-
C)Summary:- The objective of this study is to design the concept of a cleaning device and its
operating mechanism to ensure that it performs effective cleaning. To accomplish this, the
limitations of the conventional cleaning devices are examined, and the target windows are set. In
addition, the functions demanded by potential clients are researched, and the technical elements
are defined to implement these. Next, a conceptual design of a cleaning tool is drawn, and the
operating mechanism is defined depending on the method.

D)Claim:- Finally, a comparative analysis to claim our desired product is conducted to identify the
advantages and disadvantages of the two methods:-

i) Conventionally, window cleaning devices were developed to clean the entire façade. For this to
work, the motions of a cleaning device must be taken into account from the building façade design
phase. For example, to ensure a cleaning device can be applied, the windowsills must have no
protruding parts.

ii) In addition, as a cleaning device must move to another floor after finishing cleaning the windows
on one floor, a device that enables the device to move vertically must be embedded at the design
phase.

3. Portable Autonomous Window Cleaning Robot:-

A)Introduction:- Basically cleaning of wide windows on tall and multi-story buildings is quite
tedious and very dangerous procedure. It can be done outside either using hoisting machines with
manual cleaning or very rare by sophisticated, complex, large, heavy and very expensive automatic
cleaning machines operated manually from the ground floor. These large machines, besides, have to
carry a bunch of umbilical pneumatic and electrical cables while cleaning the windows. As a result,
they are not popular in housekeeping operations. Therefore, the use of autonomous window
climbing and cleaning robots attracted the attention of many designers.

B)Schematic Diagram:-
C)Summary:- From this we introduces a new small size, light, and inexpensive window cleaning
robot. As compared to other available window cleaning robot, it has the advantage of being
operated by a single electrical motor and system of suctions cups. The single motor is able to
advance the robot body in a preprogrammed swinging pattern on the 2D plane of the window pane
and simultaneously clean the window with the sponges attached to the swinging robot body. It can
be operated in automatic and manual mode. It will provide a safe cleaning of the office or home
windows, especially for high-rise buildings. The test run of the robot has demonstrated the efficiency
of the robot.

D)Claim:-From this we are claiming some features or learing about our product similarisation-

i) This small window climbing robot with pneumatic suction cups should be able to move
autonomously along an outside surface of high-rise building office window with a relatively large
area and meantime clean and wash it.

ii)Being manually attached to the outside surface of the room window the robot will execute and
accomplish the task of window cleaning automatically in a predefined pattern. The sensory system
will help to navigate the robot. It is noted that window cleaning robots are commercially available
but pricey .

iii)The designed robot is lightweight, small size and cheap because it is driven only by one rotary
actuator and system of properly arranged .

4. Winrobo Window-Washing Robot:-

A)Introduction:- The first step of our design process was to research already-existing designs with
similar functions. First we looked at the commercial market. Using the internet we found companies
that dealt with cleaning windows on skyscrapers. Klearview Systems’ window washer works by
installing fixed frames on each side of a window, which spray large amounts of water onto the
window in order to clean it.

B)Diagram:-
C)Summary:- The Winrobo window washing robot is an innovative design geared toward helping
the disabled, but also attractive as a method of reducing physical strain for its consumers. The design
is a proof of concept and therefore the actual cleanliness of the window is less of a concern than the
ease of use, and controllability of the final product. On the basis of proving this concept, it is
apparent that Page 48 this design was a complete success and is obviously applicable for the desired
functionality. This design incorporates traditional items and systems (magnets, motors and wheels)
and transforms them into a product unlike anything else available, creating a final product that is
reliable, innovative, and practical.

D)Claim:- i)Firstly, after building the prototype, the device was attached to the window to verify
that it would remain on the window without slipping. When it held, they moved on to more
strenuous tests. Their cleaning material had been previously selected due to its low coefficient of
friction and seeming ease of wiping off dry erase dots.

ii)After a certain tests,they attached several different cleaning surfaces to their prototype to
examine its ease of motion versus ease of cleaning. After testing their original cleaning materials,
various sponges, and paper towels, we settled on the original cleaning material, again due to the
ease with which the robot navigated the window while it was attached , and yet it easily cleaned the
dots off of a glass window.

5)Window Cleaing Tool:-

A)Introduction:- The present topic relates to a window cleaning tool including an internal unit or an
internal unit and an external unit. In more detail, the present disclosure relates to a window cleaning
tool that may be conveniently used, may prevent an external unit from separating and falling, and may
enable smooth movement of a cleaner during washing because when an internal unit moves up, the
front end of an internal unit blade rotates away from an inner surface of glass and the front end of an
external unit blade rotates away from an outer surface of the glass, and when the internal unit moves
down, the front ends of the internal unit blade and the external unit blade rotate toward the surfaces of
the glass to be pressed.
D)Diagram:-

C)Summary:- i)The present disclosure has been made in an effort to solve the problems and an
objective of the present disclosure is to provide a window cleaning tool that may be conveniently used
by a user and enables smooth movement of a cleaner without an external unit separating and falling
during washing.

ii)Another objective of the present disclosure is to provide a window cleaning tool that enable
reduction of the number of parts and the weight of an entire external unit.
