[0046] When the rotating body 132a rotates, the blades 132b and 132c shake the foreign matter accumulated on the ground or stick to the ground, and at the same time, they sweep up the suction port (131a).
[0047] The blades 132b and 132c may be linear in the length direction of the rotating body 132a, or the middle part of the rotating body 132a may be inclined at a certain angle in opposite directions to extend to both sides to form a bilaterally symmetrical structure, or it may be rotated like this embodiment The outer peripheral surface of the body 132a forms a spiral shape.
[0048] The blades 132b and 132c are divided in the longitudinal direction, and are composed of a plurality of small blades (not shown). The inner ends of the blades 132b and 132c are fixed to the outer peripheral surface of the rotating body 132a, and the blades 132b and 132c are detachably coupled to the rotating body 132a for replacement and repair.

For example, when an automatic vacuum cleaner is cleaning a carpet, if there are foreign substances such as a sponge on the carpet, the serrated part 135 bites the sponge and introduces it to the suction port 131a.
[0051] The serration 135a constituting the serration portion 135 may be formed on the entire outer end of the blade, but it is preferably formed only on a part of the outer end of the blade 132b. In more detail, the serrations 135a are formed only at the center of the outer end of the blade, or may be formed on both sides or one side of the outer end of the blade.
[0052] The serrations 135a can also be spaced apart from each other in the length direction of the blade 132b. If the plurality of blades 132b and 132c include at least two blades each having a serrated portion 135, the serrated portion 135 is preferably formed at different positions on the outer end of each blade.
[0053] For example, if the plurality of blades 132b and 132c include three blades each having a serrated portion 135, it is preferable that the serrated portion 135 on one blade is formed on the central part of the outer end, and the serrated portion 135 on the other blade Formed on one side of the outer end, the serration 135 on the remaining one blade is formed on the other side of the outer end.
[0054] The plurality of blades 132b and 132c include at least one flat blade 132c with a flat outer end. In this case, it is best that the blades 132b and the flat blades 132c having the serrated portion 135 are alternately arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the rotating body 132a. A brush (not shown) may also be provided on the rotating body 132a.

The first connecting portion and the second connecting portion 220 are each provided with a pin hole 230a into which a pin (not shown) is inserted.
[0062] When the automatic cleaner 100 moves on the ground and cleans at the same time, the auxiliary wheels of the suction device 130 contact the ground of the pit under the action of gravity, and the suction port 131a sucks foreign matter in a state close to the ground.
[0063] In order to make the suction device 130 more closely contact the cleaning floor, an elastic member (not shown) may be provided between the cleaner body 110 and the suction device. The elastic member is preferably arranged on the upper part of the inhalation device 130.
[0064] Of course, a certain weight can also be added to the inhalation device 130 to replace the elastic component. In the present invention, the weight of the motor 136 for the agitator can function as a part of the weight object.
[0065] On the other side of the inhalation device 130, that is, at the rear end, a detachment preventing part is provided which is hung on the bottom surface of the cleaner body 110 to prevent the inhalation device from escaping downward. The detachment preventing portion includes a hanging protrusion 240 formed on the inhalation device 130 to hang around the rear periphery of the opening.
[0066] The functions of the automatic vacuum cleaner of the present invention are as follows:
[0067] First, an operation signal is input to the automatic vacuum cleaner 100 through the power switch or the remote control on the vacuum cleaner body 110, and the automatic vacuum cleaner 100 slowly moves along the indoor floor while sucking in dust and other foreign objects on the floor through the suction device 130.
[0068] The suction device 130 sucks in foreign substances while moving downward along the surface of the recess. The suction device 130 uses the air suction assembly 120 connected with the air outlet of the dust collector 140 to drive the foreign substances on the indoor floor together with the air. Inhale through the mouth 131a.
[0069] In order to more smoothly suck the foreign substances accumulated on the ground and the foreign substances adhering to the ground into the suction port 131a, the blades of the agitator 132 provided on the suction device 130 shake the foreign substances accumulated on the ground and the foreign substances adhering to the ground. The foreign matter on the ground is swept up to the suction port 131a.
[0070] Particularly, the serrations 135 formed on at least one or more blades 132b bite into the suction port 131a after biting into the foreign material with soft surface and light weight such as sponge.
[0071] The foreign matter flowing into the automatic cleaner through the suction device 130 flows into the dust collecting device 140 through the communication pipe 133a. The air separated from the foreign matter by the dust collecting device 140 is discharged to the outside of the cleaner body 110 through the fan.
[0072] The vacuum cleaner suction device of the present invention is very easy to remove foreign substances with light weight and soft surface, such as sponges deposited on the floor, which is the object of cleaning. The cleaning performance is improved, the cleaning time is shortened, and the battery life can be extended.
