Problems solved by technology

[0006] Cleaning may not be done correctly when the duration set by the user is not long enough to clean a previously set cleaning area
When the duration set by the user is too much for cleaning the previously set cleaning area, the cleaning robot may clean the already cleaned area again, resulting in lower operational efficiency
[0007] When a conventional cleaning robot encounters an obstacle in front of or around it during its cleaning process, the cleaning robot is not programmed to avoid such an obstacle, leaving the area around the obstacle after cleaning is complete. Uncleaned

Embodiment Construction

[0025] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] The present invention basically relates to a cleaning robot capable of cleaning reliably and unambiguously, allowing the cleaning robot to know the cleaning area reference point and the restricted access area of ​​the cleaning robot and avoiding any damage to furniture etc. Escape from the set clean area.

[0027] Such as figure 1 As shown, the system according to the present invention includes: a cleaning robot 10, which automatically walks around obstacles and sucks and cleans dust and foreign objects; at least one external device 20, which has an indication and a virtual wall setting function for allowing the cleaning robot 10 to recognize a cleaning reference point and a walking restricted area; and a charging part 30 for electrically charging the cleaning robot 10.

[0028] Such as figure 2 As shown, the cleaning robot 10 includes a clean...

Abstract

Disclosed are a cleaning robot system and its method for controlling which make it possible to reliably and quickly clean with the aid of the cleaning robot. The cleaning robot system comprises at least one external device each formed of an indicator and a virtual wall setting function, with the aid of which cleaning work can be performed by the unit of blocks about a cleaning area reference point, not leaving non-cleaned area behind. Since the access of the cleaning robot can be restricted by means of a virtual wall set by an external device, any damages of furniture due to a collision of the cleaning robot can be prevented, and the cleaning robot can be barred from escaping from the set cleaning area.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a cleaning robot system and a control method thereof, and more particularly to a cleaning robot system and a control method thereof so that cleaning can be performed more efficiently with the cleaning robot in such a manner that it can be easily Cognitively recognizes cleaning reference points and traveling restriction areas, and the external device has indicator and virtual wall setting functions. Background technique [0002] While moving around along a programmed cleaning way, a cleaning robot typically cleans dust or foreign objects within a set cleaning area. [0003] The cleaning robot is inherently programmed to suck in and sweep away dust or foreign objects within the set cleaning area, while recognizing obstacles with the help of sensors. [0004] The cleaning robot generally performs a cleaning operation while walking on the basis of a set cleaning pattern relative to the entire cleaning area for a duration s...
