Abstract

Provided is a self -propelled cleaning robot that is capable of efficiently cleaning even a flat surface comprising a gap or a step. The robot (1) travels on a structure comprising a flat surface (SF) in which a groove (G) is formed and cleans the flat surface (SF) of the structure. The robot (1) is provided with a robot main body (2) comprising a movement means (4) for self- propulsion and a guidance unit (40) that guides the movement of the robot main body (2). The guidance unit (40) is provided with a shaft member (43) that is removably inserted in the groove (G) and a shaft member movement mechanism (45) that controls the insertion and removal of the shaft member (43) with respect to the groove (G). The robot main body (2) is arranged so as to be rotatable around the shaft member in a state in which the shaft member (43) of the guidance unit (40) is inserted in the groove.
