A method of cleaning a surface includes steps of (1) positioning a brush in contact with the surface; (2) rotating the brush relative to a drum about a second axis; and (3) rotating the drum relative to a bracket, supporting the drum, about a first axis, parallel to the second axis, such that the brush orbitally revolves about the first axis.

Implementations of a floor cleaning machine are provided. The floor cleaning machine is adapted to mop floors (e.g., tile, linoleum, concrete, and like floors) and comprises: a wheeled carriage assembly having a push handle; and a mop assembly that includes an endless mop belt, moistened with a cleaning solution, that can be driven through a cleaning circuit during which the underlying floor is mopped. The floor cleaning machine is configured so that rotation of at least one wheel of the wheeled carriage assembly drives the endless mop belt through the cleaning circuit. In some implementations, the mop assembly is configured to wring out the endless mop belt as it is driven through its cleaning circuit and the floor cleaning machine further comprises a filtration and recirculation system configured to moisten the endless mop belt and collect cleaning solution wrung from the endless mop belt by the mop assembly.

An apparatus for cleaning a surface comprises a bracket and a drum, coupled to the bracket and rotatable relative to the bracket about a first axis. The apparatus further comprises a brush motor, mounted to the drum, and a brush, rotatable by the brush motor relative to the drum about a second axis, parallel to the first axis.

A floor mopping machine includes a casing and a motor. A partition plate is arranged at a middle of the casing, and a battery is arranged at a side of the partition plate. A first support roller is provided at an end of the battery away from the motor, and a second support roller is provided at an end of the first support roller away from the battery. A set of second pressure rollers are arranged between the first support roller and the second support roller, and a set of third pressure rollers are arranged between the first support roller and a driving roller.

An apparatus (100), for cleaning a surface (102), comprises a handle (126) and a bracket (104), connected to the handle (126). The apparatus (100) further comprises a drum (108), rotatably coupled to the bracket (104), and an anti-rotation fixture (124), configured to prevent rotation of the drum (108) about a first axis (110) relative to the bracket (104). The apparatus (100) also comprises a brush motor (114), mounted to the drum (108), and a brush (112), rotatable by the brush motor (114) relative to the drum (108) about a second axis (116), which is parallel to the first axis (110).

A remote access duster with a body, a flexible duster cord loop that is configured to be propelled such that part of the loop moves outward from the body while another part moves inward toward the body, and a vacuum source that is configured to draw air over the cord.

A grout cleaning tool includes a grout cleaning tape. The grout cleaning tape can be provided as a replaceable grout cleaning cartridge containing a supply reel of grout cleaning tape that can be rolled across grout line grooves with an applicator roller. The grout cleaning tape can include a composition therein that is configured to be activated or enhanced by steam and transferred into the grout line to be cleaned when steam is applied to the tape.

The present disclosure discloses an automated floor cleaning apparatus, has an automatic cleaning robot and a washing base; the rear end of the robot body of the automatic cleaning robot is provided with a mop mechanism, the mop mechanism comprises a rotation component rotatably connected to the robot body and a crawler-type wiping cloth sleeving outside and rotating along with the rotation component. The invention provides can automatically and effectively removes dirt attached to the crawler-type wiping cloth, avoiding artificial detaching and then cleaning the wiping cloth stained with dirt, automatically performing washing operation, greatly alleviating operation burden of a user, and having a good floor sweeping effect.
