The present concept a cleaning device comprises; a pole assembly adapted to be detachably connected to a pole end; a head assembly adapted to be detachably connected to a pad; a resilient joint connected at a pole portion to the pole assembly and at a head end to the head assembly, wherein the resilient joint includes a flexible neck disposed between the pole end and the head end. The cleaning device is moveable between a normally retracted position and an extended position, wherein the retracted position the pole assembly pivots about the flexible neck relative the head assembly. The resilient joint further includes a pin channel which extends through the flexible neck, and the pole assembly includes an actuator attached to a plunger pin, whereby selectively urging the actuator longitudinally downward urges the plunger pin downward to extend through the flexible neck into the extended position, such that the plunger pin prevents pivoting of the flexible neck and thereby locks the position of the pole assembly relative to the head assembly in an upright position.

A cleaning device is removably attachable to a replacement head. The replacement head includes pad that is attached to the lower side of an attachment member and is in contact with the floor during cleaning. The cleaning device is removably attached to the attachment member of the replacement head by lowering the cleaning device body downward vertically onto the replacement head until a mechanical connection is achieved.

A mop pad, a flat headed mop, and a surface cleaning system is provided. The mop pad comprising a cleaning layer configured to remove contaminants from a surface being cleaned. A backing layer is coupled to the cleaning layer, the backing layer having a fastener configured to couple the backing layer to a mop head. At least one insert member coupled between at least one of the backing layer and the cleaning layer, the at least one insert being arranged adjacent an end of the mop pad.

A cleaning apparatus having a handle and a cleaning head. The cleaning head may include a base pivotably connected to the handle, a body affixed to the base and opposite the handle; and a cleaning material removably secured via clinging to the body opposite of the base and free of direct attachment to the base. The cleaning apparatus may find particular use in cleaning one or more surfaces which may include wiping, sweeping, dusting (e.g., dry, damp, or both), mopping (e.g., dry, damp, wet, or a combination), scrubbing, polishing, the like, or any combination thereof.

A kit for cleaning a room or region that includes a mop device having a mop device fastening member and at least one flexible elongated cleaning pad and a method for performing cleaning operations using the same. The flexible elongated cleaning pad has a first cleaning pad face and a second cleaning pad face opposed to the first cleaning pad face. The first cleaning pad face has microfiber content and the second cleaning pad face is configured to releasably contact either the mop device hook and loop fastening member or the high duster device hook and loop fastener member.

The present invention provides an improved cleaning mechanism of automatic cleaning machine mainly comprising a base, a cleaning cloth and a plurality of protruding portions. The base is connected to the cleaning cloth, and the protruding portions are disposed on one side surface of the base facing the cleaning cloth, or on one side surface of the cleaning cloth facing the base, or simultaneously on the side surfaces of the base and the cleaning cloth facing each other, so that gaps are further provided between the base and the cleaning cloth to avoid a vacuum state formed by air being discharged by moisture.

A cleaning device and method of cleaning are provided. The cleaning device includes a power source and a pump in selective electrical communication with the power source. A storage container is provided. A valve assembly is disposed in the storage container and in fluid communication with the pump, the valve assembly being configured to selectively flow cleaning fluid from a first portion and a second portion of the storage container. A cleaning element having a spray nozzle is in fluid communication with the pump.
