Abstract

Provided is an autonomous- travel cleaning robot with which a flat surface can be efficiently cleaned even if steps are formed therein. This robot, which autonomously travels upon a structure provided with a flat surface disposed outdoors, and cleans the flat surface of the structure , is provided with: a robot main body (2), having provided thereto, a movement means (4) for implementing autonomous travel; a cleaning unit (10) provided to a front part and/or a rear part of the robot main body (2); and a controller (30) for controlling operation of the movement means (4). The controller (30) is provided with an orientation controller (35) which detects the orientation of the robot main body (2). The orientation controller (35) is provided with a rise detection sensor (36) for detecting rising of the front part or the rear part of the robot main body (2). When the rise detection sensor detects rising of the front part or the rear part of the robot main body (2), the controller (30) controls operation of the movement means (4) such that the cleaning unit (10) passes over a place (NSA) where rising was detected, after the rising has subsided.
