Abstract

A cleaning system is provided. The cleaning system comprises a robot cleaner (10) including: a pad fixing part (140) to which a cleaning pad (30) is detachably coupled by a magnetic force, and a pad detacher (120) configured to automatically detach the cleaning pad (30) coupled to the pad fixing part (140); and a station (20, 60) including: a pad storage box (202) configured to store a plurality of cleaning pads (30) in a stack, a pad separating member (215, 615) configured to support at least one remaining cleaning pad (30b), which includes all of the plurality of cleaning pads except for a lowermost cleaning pad (30a) of the plurality of cleaning pads (30), such that the at least one remaining cleaning pad (30b) is prevented from moving in a downward direction when the lowermost cleaning pad (30a) moves in the downward direction away from the at least one remaining cleaning pad (30b), and a pad supplier (220, 620) configured to move the lowermost cleaning pad (30a) to a position at which the lowermost cleaning pad (30a) is to be automatically coupled to the pad fixing part (140) of the robot cleaner (10).
