    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a traveling cleaning appliance or a floor care or floor treatment appliance enabling favorable adaptation to a surface to be traveled on.SOLUTION: A self-traveling floor cleaning appliance 1 is provided with a photographing unit for taking a photographic picture of a surface to be traveled on and an evaluation unit 10. When a photographic picture of a floor 1 is taken, the picture can be evaluated with regard to the type of a floor covering so as to differentiate between, for example, a hard floor and a carpeted floor. Then a traveling plan and a cleaning parameter such as floor interval or the number of brush rotations are set on the basis of the detected type of the floor covering. That is, the cleaning parameters such as the number of brush rotations and suction ability can be set according to the type of the floor covering, thereby implementing a traveling cleaning appliance or a floor care or floor treatment appliance that can perform favorable cleaning.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an autonomous traveling robot cleaner capable of finely cleaning an area where there are a lot of debris densely.
    SOLUTION: The robot cleaner 1 performs a standard cleaning action of cleaning while traveling according to a predetermined traveling rule, and when an area where a contaminated degree exceeds the standard value is found out during the standard cleaning action, further performs a local cleaning action of locally traveling after having traveled the area according to the standard cleaning action. For example, the robot cleaner 1 travels in zigzags along a route Z1 according to the standard cleaning action, and stops the standard cleaning action when reaching a P2 point passing through a crowded area of debris 70 through a P1 point. Then, the robot cleaner starts a local cleaning action, and helically travels from a P3 point to a P4 point along a route Z2 within a local cleaning area G1 inside a circle F1 whose radius is equal to generally a half of a distance from the P1 point to the P2 point and whose center rests on a P3 point which rest on the mid point of the P1 point and the P2 point. Thereafter, restarts the standard cleaning action to travel in zigzags from the P2 point along a route Z3.
