SUCTION HEAD WITH IMPROVED ADHERENCE TO THE SURFACE TO BE VACUUMED
A suction head for a vacuum cleaner or the like is described, said suction head comprising: a base plate with a base plate channel open towards a surface to be vacuumed, a suction channel in fluid communication with the base plate channel, main wheels for moving said suction head on the surface to be vacuumed, and a bracket for connecting said main wheels to said base plate, wherein said bracket is connected to said base plate in a rotatable manner so that said base plate is tiltable with respect to the main wheels.
Cleaner
A cleaner includes a body forming an external appearance, and a spin-mop cleaning module configured to support the body and including at least one spin-mop provided so as to come into contact with a floor while rotating in a clockwise direction or in a counterclockwise direction when viewed from an upper side. The inclination angle of a lower surface of the spin mop is changeable relative to a horizontal plane.
Fan Blade Cleaning Assembly
A fan blade cleaning assembly for cleaning a ceiling fan blade includes a sleeve that is elongated for sliding onto a ceiling fan blade. A plurality of brushes is each coupled to the sleeve and each of the brushes is positioned within the sleeve. In this way each of the brushes can clean the ceiling fan blade when the sleeve is slid thereon. Moreover, the plurality of brushes is strategically positioned to clean a top surface and a bottom surface of the ceiling fan blade. A hose is fluidly coupled to the sleeve and the hose can be fluidly coupled to a vacuum source to facilitate the vacuum source to remove the dust and debris from the sleeve.
Ceiling fan blade cleaning vacuum attachment
The ceiling fan blade cleaning vacuum attachment may comprise a housing, an upper brush, a lower brush, and a pneumatic brush motor. The ceiling fan blade cleaning vacuum attachment may clean an individual blade selected from a plurality of blades of a ceiling fan. A vacuum hose coupled to a vacuum cleaner may be separably couple to a neck of the housing. The individual blade may be inserted into a blade slot of the housing. Suction generated by the vacuum cleaner may draw air through the blade slot and through the neck of the housing. The air may turn a turbine rotor of the pneumatic brush motor, which may drive the upper brush and the lower brush 256 to sweep the individual blade.
SUCTION ACCESSORY DEVICE FOR VACUUMING AND CLEANING HARD-TO-REACH AND/OR DELICATE PLACES AND OBJECTS
A suction accessory device is provided, for the connection with a suction apparatus or vacuum cleaner, for the collection of waste in places of difficult access and/or in delicate objects. The suction accessory device comprises a flexible and lightweight hose. At one end, the hose includes a reducing coupling adapter terminal for connecting to a vacuum cleaner or suction device. At the opposite end, the hose includes a nozzle connection terminal that is coupled to a first end of a flexible or rigid, handle or brush tube. At a second end of the brush tube, the brush tube includes a head connection terminal which connects to interchangeable suction heads or nozzles.
LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE SYSTEMS AND METHODS
Systems and methods for maintaining landscape features. Exemplary landscape maintenance systems include an air flow generation mechanism such as a vacuum and/or blower, a wand assembly having a forearm cuff assembly and a joystick handle assembly, and a nozzle assembly having an agitator assembly. The agitator assembly may include one or more spines or leaflets. The air flow generation mechanism may include a port in fluid communication with the wand assembly. The air flow generation mechanism may also include a port in fluid communication with an exhaust conduit, the exhaust conduit may be attached with a receptacle bag, and the receptacle bag may have a bag frame disposed therein.
Debris collection device for autonomous cleaning robots
The present disclosure provides, in one aspect, a debris collection device for an autonomous cleaning robot includes a cleaning pad portion configured to contact a floor surface. The cleaning pad portion includes a backing and at least one cleaning pad connected to a bottom surface of the backing. The autonomous cleaning robot includes a vacuum bag portion configured to collect at least a portion of debris removed from the floor surface by a vacuum assembly of the autonomous cleaning robot. A volume of the vacuum bag portion is positioned vertically above the cleaning pad portion.

SURFACE CLEANING APPARATUS
A hand vacuum cleaner with a finger grip area that is provided between a forward side of the handle and a rear side of the main body, and wherein the suction motor is positioned between the cyclone and the finger grip area and an axis that extends between the front of the cyclone and the handle extends through the suction motor.
Surface cleaning head with leading roller
A surface cleaning head with a leading roller may be used to facilitate capturing of debris in the air flow into a suction conduit on the underside of the surface cleaning head. The leading roller is generally positioned adjacent to and in advance of the opening of the suction conduit. The surface cleaning head may have dual agitators—a leading roller and a rotating brush roll—with the leading roller being located in front of the brush roll. The leading roller may have a smaller diameter than the brush roll and may provide a softer cleaning element. The leading roller may also have a bottom portion exposed to the flow path to the suction conduit and at least a top half that is not exposed to that flow path. The leading roller may also float relative to the surface cleaning head and/or may be adjustable relative to the brush roll.
