SELF-PROPELLED ROBOT APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a self-propelled robot apparatus preventing a robot body from getting obstructive or visually annoying even in charging. SOLUTION: This robot apparatus is provided with a lifting means 3 for moving the robot body 1 from a floor face installation state to an erected state in the charging state where the robot body 1 and an external charging apparatus 2 are electrically connected to each other. In the charging, the robot body 3 is thus moved from the floor face installation state to the erected state by the lifting means 3 to minimize its occupation area in a room and prevent the robot body 1 from getting obstructive or visually annoying even in the charging.
