A cleaning article. The cleaning article has a laminate construction. The cleaning article comprises a sheet and a hydrophilic gather strip element joined together at plural bonds. The gather strip element has plural layers superimposed upon one another, providing strips extending outwardly from the bonds. Different layers are differentially bonded, to provide a construction which allows the strips to advantageously present a dynamically changing area to the target surface during cleaning, under normal usage conditions. By changing the surface area, more liquids, and associated debris, can be cleaned from the target surface.

A tool for cleaning a structure is provided. The tool includes an extension pole having a length, the extension pole including three or more cylindrical segments having different respective diameters, the segments being arranged in a telescoping configuration to permit the length of the extension pole to be adjusted to a desired length; locking nuts structured to releasably lock adjacent ones of the segments to one another; a grip provided on a most proximal one of the segments; and an attachment member provided on a most distal one of the segments, the attachment member being structured to removably attach at least one cleaning accessory.

A nonwoven sheet, having a first outwardly facing surface and a second outwardly facing surface. Wax is disposed in a wax pattern on the first surface; and oil is disposed in an oil pattern on the second surface. The oil pattern is not coincident the wax pattern so that wax blocks the oil from permeating through to the first surface. The first surface may be textured with peaks and valleys, having wax disposed on the peaks. This arrangement keeps the oil from contacting the target surface and leaving residue, while allowing the oil to collect and retain debris. The sheet may be executed as a dry sheet for cleaning surfaces such as floors or as a duster.

Methods of moving and operating a tool are provided. The methods include positioning an upper hand on an upper handle of a pole so that a first portion of the upper hand grasps a stationary portion of the upper handle and a second portion of the upper hand grasps a rotational portion of the upper handle, positioning a lower hand on a lower handle of the pole so that a first portion of the lower hand grasps a stationary portion of the lower handle and a second portion of the lower hand grasps a rotational portion of the lower handle, and switching between grasping the stationary and/or rotational portions of the upper and/or lower handles by adjusting which of the first and second portions of the upper and/or lower hands applies pressure to the upper and/or lower handles, respectively.

A cleaning device includes a housing having a first end and a second end opposite the first end. A handle adapter can be coupled to the first end of the housing. A motor enclosed within the housing is coupled with a cleaning head adapter that is configured to couple a cleaning head to the motor such that the cleaning head extends from the second end of the housing. A controller is configured to operate the motor to rotate the cleaning head adapter based on operation of a user control component. A user can use the cleaning device by holding onto an end of a cleaning head and operating the user control component to cause the cleaning head to rotate and wring out a portion of the cleaning head.

Disclosed is a cleaning robot. The cleaning robot includes a body, a traveling assembly, a rolling brush assembly and a dust suction assembly. The traveling assembly, the rolling brush assembly and the dust suction assembly are arranged on the body. The dust suction assembly includes a dust box arranged in front of the rolling brush assembly in the advancing direction of the cleaning robot. The rolling brush assembly is configured for sweeping garbage on a ground. The dust box is configured for receiving garbage swept by the rolling brush assembly. The present application is beneficial to increasing the volume and storage space of the dust box, reducing the number of times of cleaning the dust box by the user, and improving the user experience.
