Abstract

Addressing low efficiency, high energy consumption, and labor costs in stair cleaning, this study develops "Tijieshi", an intelligent robot featuring a multi-stage lifting mechanism and omnidirectional cleaning system with telescopic brushes for adaptive stair sanitation. Integrated path-planning algorithms and posture control enhance operational stability in complex environments, reducing cleaning oversights and achieving significant energy savings. The design incorporates anti-slip wear-resistant materials, human-machine interaction, and autonomous charging to ensure safety and durability. Compared to traditional methods, it significantly improves cleaning efficiency while supporting modular design for scalable lications.
