Provided are a cleaning robot and a cleaning cloth bracket for the cleaning robot, including a cleaning cloth bracket, where the cleaning cloth bracket includes a main body, a soft member and a raised portion, a cleaning cloth is provided under the cleaning cloth bracket, the cleaning cloth bracket is floatingly disposed at a bottom of a base of the cleaning robot, the raised portion is provided at a front end of the main body through the soft member, and the raised portion is in contact with the bottom of the base. According to the present disclosure, by increasing the height of the raised portion and providing the soft member between the raised portion and the main body of the cleaning cloth bracket, the range of application of the cleaning robot is improved, the cleaning robot is allowed to overcome higher obstacles, and the cleaning efficiency is improved.

Provided is a self-moving cleaning device, including a shell, a water tank, a groove, and a roller assembly. A mounting part is arranged at the bottom of the shell; the water tank is detachably mounted on the mounting part; the groove is provided in the mounting part and/or the groove is provided in the water tank at a position cooperating with the mounting part; and the roller assembly is mounted on the mounting part and can extend and retract. When the water tank is mounted on the shell, the roller assembly retracts into the groove and is in a retracted state, and when the water tank is removed from the shell, the roller assembly is in an extended state.

A cleaning robot is configured to clean a predetermined floor area. A method for controlling the cleaning robot includes determining a section of the floor area, the treatment of which by the cleaning robot is intended to differ from that of the remaining floor area, deactivating a cleaning facility of the cleaning robot, controlling the cleaning robot to travel along a boundary of the section, detecting a user-controlled confirmation of the boundary traveled along, and enabling the cleaning facility. A control apparatus and a system including a cleaning robot are also provided.

A floor cleaning system includes a mobile, self-driving apparatus and a portable additional apparatus for a user. The self-driving apparatus, in particular, is a cleaning apparatus for autonomous treatment of floor areas, such as a vacuuming robot and/or sweeping robot and/or wiping robot. The user apparatus has an operating unit, a communication unit, and a position detection unit. Using the position detection unit, the user defines the floor area to be cleaned in that the user walks, with the additional apparatus, along a cleaning path or delimiting path that can be transmitted to the mobile, self-driving apparatus in order for the mobile, self-driving apparatus to clean along the cleaning path or to clean the floor area included within the delimiting path in accordance with a cleaning request. There is also described a method for the automatic treatment of floor areas with the aid of the floor cleaning system.
