A cleaning robot system (5) includes a robot (10) and a robot maintenance station (100,1100,1200,1300,1400). The robot (10) includes a chassis (31), a drive system (45) configured to maneuver the robot (10) as directed by a controller (49), and a cleaning assembly (43) including a cleaning assembly housing (40) and a driven cleaning roller (60,65). The robot maintenance station (100,1100,1200,1300,1400) includes a station housing (120) and a docking platform (122) configured to support the robot (10) when docked. A mechanical agitator (510,520) engages the roller (60,65) of the robot (10) with the robot (10) docked. The agitator (510,520) includes an agitator comb (511) having multiple teeth (512) configured to remove accumulated debris from the roller (60,65) as the agitator comb (511) and roller (60,65) are moved relative to one another.; The robot maintenance station (100,1100,1200,1300,1400) includes a collection bin (150) arranged to receive and hold debris removed by the mechanical agitator (510,520). |
