A vacuum cleaner includes a main body and a suction nozzle that suctions up dust on the floor. The suction nozzle includes a housing, a driver, and a rotating brush. The housing includes an entrance through which the dust travels to the main body, a first shaft member, and a first rib disposed along a circumference of the first shaft member. The rotating brush includes a cylindrical body rotated by the first shaft member. The rotating brush also includes a brush member attached to an outer surface of the cylindrical body. The brush member rubs against the floor to direct the dust on the floor towards the entrance. As the brush member rotates, it also comes into contact with the first rib. The brush member includes a plurality of filaments. Some of the filaments are elastically deformed in the direction of the rotation axis upon contacting the first rib.

A reconfigurable vacuum attachment may include a bell-shaped housing. The bell-shaped housing may have a bell-opening and a hose-interface. The hose-interface may be configured to hydraulically couple with a vacuum hose. A skimmer-plate may be attachable to the bell-opening and include a skimmer-aperture extending through the skimmer-plate. The reconfigurable vacuum attachment may further include a removable brush assembly. The brush assembly may host a rotatable brush coupled to a brush driver. The brush driver may be configured to hydraulically couple with the vacuum hose and convert water flow into a torque and spin the bristles. A buoy may be attached to the housing allowing the reconfigurable vacuum attachment to be used as a pool skimmer. The reconfigurable vacuum attachment is useful for skimming a pool surface and dislodging and vacuuming matter from a pool wall.

A surface cleaning device for removing debris from a surface is described. The surface cleaning device comprises a cleaning head comprising a housing, wherein the housing defines an inlet and comprises brush chambers; at least one vent coupled to a top portion of the housing; and a sweeper assembly coupled to the housing and comprising brushes having bristles, wherein the cleaning head is configured create a suction with a surface by directing air flow into the housing through the inlet and out of the housing through the at least one vent.

A cleaner includes a case having an opening formed in a lower side. The cleaner also includes a brush assembly disposed inside the case. The brush assembly includes a horizontally disposed brush bar and a brush coupled to the brush bar. The cleaner includes a suction port for suctioning dust collected by the brush assembly. The cleaner also includes a motor that provides power to the brush assembly. Further, the cleaner includes an operation assembly, connecting the motor and the brush assembly, and converting a rotational movement of the motor into a translational motion of the brush assembly. The operation assembly includes a rotating member coupled to a shaft of the motor, a link connected to the rotating member, a connecting member connecting the brush bar and the link, and a guide rail for guiding the connecting member in a longitudinal direction.

A sweeper head includes a cleaning device, a transmission shaft, and a shield. The cleaning device includes a rolling member rotatable about a first axis and a cleaning element. The transmission shaft is rotatable about a second axis. The shield includes a surrounding portion for surrounding at least a part of the cleaning element. The surrounding portion includes a front surrounding portion and a rear surrounding portion located on two sides of a first plane and the first plane passes through the second axis and is parallel to the first axis. The ratio of a maximum measurement of the front surrounding portion in a direction parallel to the first axis to a maximum measurement of the rear surrounding portion in the direction is greater than or equal to 2 and is less than or equal to 3.

A roller assembly for a mobile cleaning system for cleaning a work surface can include a drive shaft, a sheath, a bushing, and a bushing shroud. The drive shaft can be rotatable about a drive axis, and the drive shaft can include a driven end and an opposite bushing end. The sheath can be supported by the drive shaft and the sheath can be rotatable with the drive shaft. The sheath can include a shell engageable with the work surface. The bushing can be located about the bushing end of the drive shaft. The bushing shroud can be connected to the bushing. The sheath and the drive shaft can be together rotatable with respect to the bushing and the bushing shroud, the bushing shroud can include an outer portion defining a first radius of curvature and a recessed portion connected to the outer portion.

A substrate treatment apparatus includes a brush moving mechanism which moves a shaft to which a cleaning brush is attached. The brush body includes a substrate contact portion of a pillar-shaped portion. The substrate treatment apparatus further includes a correcting member and a relatively-positioning mechanism. When the correcting member is placed in a target position, a contact portion of the correcting member overlaps an object portion which is a combination of a design contact portion and a belt-shaped annular portion in an outer surface of a design pillar-shaped portion of a design body of a design brush. The contact portion is formed to have an inverted shape of the object portion of the design brush, and a portion of the contact portion, which corresponds to the belt-shaped annular portion, is a center-axis facing surface which faces a center axis of the shaft.

A housing has a rearward end with a handle. The housing has a forward end with a motor housing and a laterally spaced guard housing. The housing has a housing axis extending between the forward end and the rearward end. The guard housing is located to the left side of the forward end. A motor located within the motor housing has a drive shaft rotatable around a horizontal axis of rotation perpendicular with the housing axis and extending into the guard housing. A brush wheel mounted on the drive shaft rotates with the drive shaft for brushing and cleaning small bathroom grout, tub and shower walls and floors, kitchen and bathroom sinks, especially under-mounted, around windows and more.

A brush device includes a housing having an exit end, an entrance end, and a room defined in the housing. A propeller unit is located in the room and includes a shaft with multiple first blades on an outside thereof. The shaft includes a driving head extending through the exit end of the housing. The driving head is connected with a brush so that the brush is rotated by water entering from the entrance and exiting from the exit end.

A modular cleaning tool multiple cleaning tool sections to be interchangeably attached to the same handle section via a releasable fastener having the same tool portion on each of the tool sections that is complementary with a handle portion on the handle section. Different, interchangeable handle sections can also be provided. A caddy system is used to simultaneously hold a plurality of different tool sections and handle sections for storage and transport.
