Abstract: In response to the challenges presented by the strong adhesion of tobacco dregs and the difficulties in cleaning, an intelligent self-cleaning robot has been devised and developed for the complex environment at the bottom of distribution vehicles. By integrating a scraping mechanism, a sweeping system, and a vacuuming device, an efficient and collaborative cleaning solution has been established to effectively meet the requirements for cleaning and absorbing tobacco residue. Kinematic and rigid body dynamics analyses have been carried out on the key tobacco scraper device to optimize its motion trajectory and evaluate its mechanical response, thereby guaranteeing high efficiency and stability during the cleaning process. Test results show that this mechanism can precisely scrape and collect the tobacco residue, avoiding excessive friction and cleaning blind spots. It can converge scattered tobacco dregs to cover more than 20% of the area. The intelligent self-cleaning robot proposed in this study demonstrates outstanding performance in handling tobacco residue cleaning issues, meeting the high demands for cleaning efficiency and quality within the tobacco industry, and has significant application value and development prospects.
