Disclosed herein are a driving unit and a robot cleaner having the same. The robot cleaner has a configuration in which an elastic member is supported so that an angle formed between the elastic member and a rotation shaft of the driving unit is provided in a predetermined range to offset a decrease in an elastic force generated while the robot cleaner is driving on a surface having steps and a driving wheel protrudes downward from the robot cleaner. Accordingly, there is the effect where a traction force is maintained at a predetermined level for maintaining the driving performance of the robot cleaner even while the robot cleaner is driving and the driving wheel is lowered to decrease the elastic force of the elastic member.
