Aspects described herein generally relate to a cleaning system, such as a cleaning implement with a primary cleaning member and a removable secondary cleaning member, in particular a mop assembly with a primary cleaning member and a removable secondary cleaning member. The primary cleaning member may be a sponge based cleaning member and the secondary cleaning member may be a scrubbing brush or similar handheld scrubbing member. The scrubbing brush may have an attachment member that includes a pair of rails and a tab assembly that helps to releasably connect the scrubbing brush to a connecting member of the mop assembly.

A draining rack is configured including a fixed rack and a movable rack supported such that it can be tilted with respect to the fixed rack. The movable rack is supported by the fixed rack such that it can be tilted (rotated) between an upright position at which it stands upright on the front side of the fixed rack and a tilted position at which it is tilted from the upright position. By rotating the movable rack from the tilted position to the upright position in a state in which a cleaning sponge is held (interposed) between the fixed rack and the movable rack, this arrangement is capable of squeezing the cleaning sponge. This allows the draining time for the cleaning sponge to be reduced.

Flat mops and self-wringing flat mops can include a wringing configuration for applying a linear wringing motion to a mop head assembly, such as may occur along an axis coaxial with a handle. Four-point self wringing configurations may include four-point guide surfaces and/or four-point pressure points for wringing a mop head assembly.

A self-wringing flat mop includes a flat mop head, a mop handle and a holding sleeve. The mop handle includes a connection rod, a holding rod, and a transmission assembly. The holding rod is operated to rotate. The transmission assembly transmits rotation to the connection rod. The connection rod drives the flat mop head to collapse and wring out water. The transmission assembly includes a first engaging member and a second engaging member for undertaking engagement-disengagement actions. The holding rod includes a limiting rib. The holding sleeve sleeves the mop handle and includes a control lever. The control lever is turned pivotally with respect to the holding sleeve to separate the first engaging member from the second engaging member and restore the collapsed flat mop head to the flattened state. The holding sleeve includes a unidirectional limiting ring corresponding to the limiting rib.

A mop includes a handle rod, a mop head, and an actuator handle. The handle rod defines a central handle rod axis. The mop head connects with the handle rod and includes a cleaning element mounting structure, a cleaning element, and a standoff. The actuator handle connects with the handle rod and the cleaning element mounting structure. The actuator handle is movable with respect to the handle rod for moving the mop head with respect to the handle rod between a use position and a storage position.

In a spin-dryable mop, a handle includes upper and lower tubes. A spinning mechanism movably connects the upper tube to the lower tube. The spinning mechanism rotates the upper tube on the lower tube when the upper tube moves axially on the lower tube. A locking mechanism includes a sleeve and a quick-release. The sleeve is secured to the upper tube and located at a place where the upper tube is connected to the lower tube. The sleeve includes an opening. The quick-release is connected to the sleeve in the opening. The quick-release includes a cam extending through the opening to press the lower tube to keep the upper tube in position on the lower tube. A spin-drying mechanism includes a net for movably receiving the lower tube and a shelter for rotationally receiving the net. A mop head is connected to the lower tube.
