The tank assembly also includes left and right latch assemblies receivable by the left and right receptacles, respectively. Each latch assembly includes a moveable assembly configured to lock the tank assembly in position when the handle is in the second position.

A robot cleaner includes a main body forming an exterior and having a water tank housing formed at a rear side thereof. The water tank housing may form a space in which a water tank is mounted. At least one spin mop is rotatably provided at a lower side of the main body, moving the main body by rotating, and configured to clean a floor using water in the water tank. A supply nozzle is provided at one side of the water tank housing, and when connected to a discharge nozzle of the water tank, communicates with the discharge nozzle to supply water stored in the water tank to each of the spin mops. The robot cleaner further includes a locking device rotatably provided at a position spaced apart from a circumferential surface of the water tank housing, and configured to secure the water tank in the water tank housing when mounted or to release the water tank by pushing backward on the water tank.

A floor cleaning tool including a housing, a reservoir coupled to the housing and adapted to hold a cleaning solution, and a floor-engaging roller coupled to the housing and rotatable with respect to the housing. The tool also includes a wheel by which the floor cleaning tool moves across a floor surface in a direction of travel at least partially defining a front, rear, and lateral sides of the floor cleaning tool. The tool further includes a squeegee laterally insertable between the roller and the wheel, and a squeegee mount located between the roller and the wheel by which the squeegee is releasably mounted to the floor cleaning tool by first and second laterally opposed protrusions rotatably secured within first and second apertures at opposite ends of the squeegee.

A portable extractor includes a supply tank, a recovery tank, a pump in fluid communication with the supply tank, a suction source in fluid communication with the recovery tank, a base configured to support the suction source and the pump, and a main housing mounted on the base and housing the suction source and the pump. The main housing is configured to removably support the recovery tank and the supply tank. The recovery tank is arranged at a front side of the portable extractor and the supply tank is arranged at a lateral side of the portable extractor between the front side and the rear side.

A management device simultaneously clamps both the power cord and the vacuum tube of a floor preparation machine to appropriately direct the power cord and vacuum tube and protect from damage the power cord, vacuum tube cord plug and machine socket associated with the power cord and fitting associated with the vacuum tube.

An awning cleaning tool for cleaning awnings and other structures employing awning-like material. In one implementation, the awning cleaning tool includes a cleaning head unit having a squeegee-like leak guard, one or more powered brushes, a row of water-detergent applicator nozzles, and an elongated extraction port. The awning cleaning tool also includes an elongated extension and a control handle. During cleaning, a water-detergent mixture is sprayed via the nozzles onto the top surface of the awning and the powered brushes work the water-detergent mixture into the material of the awning to dislodge the dirt and debris. The used water-detergent mixture, dirt and debris are extracted via the extraction port. Any excess water-detergent mixture is captured by the leak guard so that it does not run down and off the awning.

A surface cleaning device comprises a cleaning head having a housing, a fluid tank configured to store fluid and be in fluid communication with the cleaning head, a cleaning pad coupled to the cleaning head and configured to remove debris from a surface, and a plurality of nozzles distributed along the cleaning pad, wherein the fluid tank is configured to release at least some of the fluid such that the released fluid flows through the plurality of nozzles onto the cleaning pad.

Disclosed is an automatic cleaning storage base for an electric mop. The electric mop has a rotatable cleaning roller; the automatic cleaning storage base comprises a casing member, a cleaning tank is formed in an upper surface of the casing member, and a decontamination assembly for scrubbing the cleaning roller is disposed in the cleaning tank; the roller is cleaned by using the decontamination assembly of the present invention, thereby avoiding the cumbersome manual operation in the prior art, avoiding staining human hands, and achieving a good effect.

Disclosed is a drainage system for an automatic cleaning storage base of an electric mop. The automatic cleaning storage base of the electric mop comprises a casing member having a cleaning tank. The drainage system comprises a drain valve; an outlet end of the drain valve is connected to the outside of the casing member, and an inlet end of the drain valve is connected to the cleaning tank; the drain valve has a switch, and the switch is provided with a first rack; the drain valve is further provided with a duplex gear and a second rack; the duplex gear has a gear portion with a larger outer diameter to mesh with the first rack, and the duplex gear has a gear portion with a smaller outer diameter to mesh with the second rack.
