Cleaner and pump system
- Cleaner system
The cleaner systems consist of two wiping disks and one
wiping bar which placed below the chassis. The wiping disks were made from hard
rubber with 14cm diameter of each disk. The rotating of the wiping disks was
controlled by the 24V-12W DC motor through the pulley systems which design in
Solidworks program (Figure 1). The task of wiping disks is taking dry foam
rubber for dry cleaning.

The wiping bar was made by aluminum. It was design for wet
cleaning. The foam rubber in the wiping bar will be moist by the water received
from pump system through the small pipe (Figure 2).

- Pump system
The pump system consists of water tank and small water pump
which place on the chassis of the FCR (shown in Figure 3). The water tank
was made from aluminum with the dimension 50mm ×
210mm × 125mm. It can
contain 1.3l water and detergent for cleaning task. This combination will be
transmitted from the water tank to a wiping bar through a small pipe by a
12V-6W water pump. The water pump was controlled by a microcontroller to
optimize the system.
