A nozzle for a cleaner includes a nozzle housing that has a suction flow path that allows air containing dust to flow therethrough. The nozzle also includes a driving device including a driving motor. Further the nozzle includes a rotation cleaning unit including a rotation plate which is connected to the driving device at a lower side of the nozzle housing. The nozzle also includes a mop attached to a lower side of the rotation plate. In addition, the nozzle includes a water tank mounted on an upper side of the nozzle housing and configured to store water. The water tank is separable from the nozzle housing. An upper side wall of the water tank forms an upper surface of the nozzle when the water tank is mounted on the nozzle housing, and a portion of a bottom wall of the water tank is configured to surround the driving device.

A floor cleaner including a recovery tank. The recovery tank includes a tank body having a lower end wall, an open upper end, and a sidewall that extend upwardly from the lower end wall. A cover that includes a suction air outlet in fluid communication with a vacuum source. An inlet duct extends upwardly from the lower end wall. The recover tank includes a shutoff float including a float body and a closure. The float body is configured to float on a surface of cleaning fluid and the closure is received in the suction air outlet to close the suction air outlet. The float body moves along the inlet duct as the float body floats on the surface of the cleaning fluid. The float body includes an aperture extending through the float body and the inlet duct extends through the aperture of the float body.

A washing unit, planar washing machine and method for washing planar textile products. The washing unit (WU) comprises at least two rotating suction heads (13) and at least one washing nozzle (14), which is located between the suction heads. The washing unit is moved (A) in a reciprocating manner in a transverse direction (x) relative to a feed direction (y) of textile product (23) during washing process.

A nozzle for a cleaner has a nozzle housing, which has a nozzle base and a drain hole for discharging water from the nozzle housing. The nozzle also has a rotary cleaning unit disposed below the nozzle housing. The rotary cleaning unit has a rotation plate that can be attached to a mop. The nozzle has a driving unit that includes a driving motor for driving the rotary cleaning unit. The nozzle also has a control board for controlling the drive motor. In addition, the nozzle has a water tank detachably mounted on an upper side of the nozzle housing. The water tank stores water and supplies the water to the rotary cleaning unit.

A combination of a floor cleaner and a cleaning tray. At least a portion of a base of the floor cleaner is received by a reservoir of the cleaning tray. The floor cleaner further including an upright portion movable between an inclined use position and an upright storage position. The brushroll is powered by a brushroll motor. The brushroll motor includes a control circuit that controls the brushroll. The control circuit has a first switch that is open when the floor cleaner is in the upright position and closed when the floor cleaner is in the inclined use position. The second switch is in parallel with the first switch. The second switch is opened in response to the portion of the base being removed from the cleaning tray and the second switch is closed when the portion of the base is in the cleaning tray.

A scrubber-dryer device for cleaning walkable surfaces, as for example floors, pavements, asphalted roads, etc., adapted to move forward automatically and to be steered manually by an operator, and including a cleaning lower base body connected on its upper part by a movable jointing element to a steering means lengthened upward the lower base body including a frame to which one or more lower brushing means are fixed to, at least a wetting system fixed to the frame, and at least a dirt collection system fixed to the frame, the jointing element formed by a lengthened elastic and internally hollow push element, constrained with its lower end portion to the frame, in the barycenter point of the lower body and with its upper end portion to the steering element.

A spot cleaner apparatus may have a clean fluid tank configured for holding a cleaning fluid. A dirty fluid tank may include an integrated liquid/air separator. A cleaning head may be fluidly coupled to the clean fluid tank, the cleaning head including one or more vacuum inlets and a fluid-nebulizing orifice configured to dispense the cleaning fluid in a mist-like fashion. A pump assembly may fluidly couple the clean fluid tank to the cleaning head. A fluid heater heats the cleaning fluid at or between the clean fluid tank and the fluid-nebulizing orifice. A vacuum assembly configured for drawing a vacuum airflow from one or more vacuum inlets in the cleaning head through the integrated liquid/air separator in the dirty fluid tank.

A portable surface treatment tool is provided, which is configured for attachment to a suction controller. The portable surface treatment tool is configured for use with vertical, overhead, inclined and horizontal surfaces and includes a head and a handle coupled to the head. The head includes: a rotatable surface treatment unit configured to engage a surface to be treated; a motor configured to drive the rotatable surface treatment unit; and a shroud substantially encasing at least a portion of the rotatable surface treatment unit, the shroud defining a suction region proximal the rotatable surface treatment unit. The suction region is configured to suck fluid from a surface to be treated. The shroud defines a suction connection formation configured to be coupled to a source of suction supplied by a suction controller, the suction connection formation being in fluid communication with the suction region to remove fluid from a surface to be treated.

Disclosed are a robot cleaner and a maintenance device for the same. The robot cleaner includes a body, a traveling module for moving the body, a bottom portion disposed in front of the traveling module for sliding along a floor when the body is moved, and a collection portion disposed in front of the bottom portion, the collection portion having therein a space for collecting foreign matter on the floor. The maintenance device includes a suction port configured to be inserted into the collection portion and a suction channel for guiding the movement of the air suctioned through the suction port.

Disclosed is a robot cleaner including a body having a module location portion, a traveling module for moving the body, and a sliding module having a body location portion detachably coupled to the module location portion, the sliding module being configured to slide along a floor when the body is moved. A mop fixing unit for fixing a replaceable mop is provided between the module location portion and the body location portion.
