“…Vacuum can be produced by using an electrical vacuum generator or by external hydraulic vacuum generator (Venturi effect) connected to the robot by flexible tubes, vacuum pump is installed on the robot that keeps the negative pressure in each cup at constant level if significant leakage occurs (See Figure 3). Examples for such robots are V-ROBO [29, 40], RIMINI [41, 42], ROMA II [43], Vacuum Lizard [30], Sky Cleaner 3 [44], RAMR1 [45], crawling robot for cleaning [46, 47].…”

Underwater robots are being developed for various applications ranging from inspection to maintenance and cleaning of submerged surfaces and constructions. These platforms should be able to travel on these surfaces. Furthermore, these platforms should adapt and reconfigure for underwater environment conditions and should be autonomous. Regarding the adhesion to the surface, they should produce a proper attaching force using a lightweight technics. Taking these facts into consideration, this paper presents a survey of different technologies used for underwater cleaning and the available underwater robotics solutions for the locomotion and the adhesion to surfaces.

Autonomous mobile robots for vertical surface cleaning have to support their own weight, fixing elements most frequently used being vacuum cups. An original construction of a cleaning robot with displacements in a vertical plane and vacuum attachment system was developed by the authors. The paper presents the most important results of the research performed in order to establish the behavior of vacuum cups used for coupling to the supporting surface in the presence of external loads.
