    Abstract: A cleaning device is provided. The cleaning device includes a vacuum cleaner which includes a dust collecting bin and a docking station to which the vacuum cleaner is coupled, wherein the docking station includes a charger configured to be electrically connected to a charging terminal of the vacuum cleaner in response to the vacuum cleaner being coupled to the docking station, a door driver configured to open or close a dust collecting bin door disposed at a lower portion of the dust collecting bin, a suction device configured to move air from the dust collecting bin into the docking station, a collector configured to collect foreign matter that moves together with the air due to driving the suction device, and a controller configured to control the door driver to open the dust collecting bin door in response to the charging terminal of the vacuum cleaner being electrically connected to the charger, configured to control the suction device to supply a suctioning air flow to the dust collecting bin and perform a discharge operation in response to the dust collecting bin door being opened, and configured to control the door driver to close the dust collecting bin door in response to an end of the discharge operation.

    Abstract: A cordless vacuum cleaner includes a cleaner main body and a station. The cleaner main body includes a battery and a first processor controlling performing a cleaning function using power of the battery. The station includes a power conversion device to generate a voltage to charge the battery of the cleaner main body, a second charge terminal to charge the battery of the cleaner main body with the voltage generated by the power conversion device, a temperature sensor installed within a distance from the second charge terminal and to detect a temperature of the second charge terminal, a divider resistor to provide a voltage by dividing of an input voltage with the temperature sensor, and a second processor controlling performing an overheating prevention operation based on a voltage level of the voltage provided by the divider resistor and the temperature sensor being greater than a threshold voltage level.
