A fluid directing grooming glove apparatus for vacuuming and washing pets includes a glove body having a glove opening configured to receive a user's hand. A fluid diverter is coupled to the glove body and has a hose aperture and a plurality of tube apertures. Each tube aperture is in fluid communication with the hose aperture. A plurality of finger tubes is coupled to the glove body and attached to, and in fluid communication with, the tube apertures of the fluid diverter. A feed hose is coupled to the fluid diverter. The feed hose has a hose distal end attached to, and in fluid communication with, the hose aperture and a hose connector coupled to a hose proximal end. The hose connector attaches to a vacuum hose or a water hose to either suck air or spray water through the finger tubes.

A vacuuming faucet assembly includes a faucet that is integrated into a counter top. A pair of vacuum units is each integrated into the faucet and each of the vacuum units includes a suction port that is in fluid communication with a vacuum source. The suction port on each of the vacuum units is extendable away from a respective vacuum unit for suctionally removing water from the counter top to dry the counter top. A plurality of motion sensors is each integrated into a respective one of the faucet and a respective one of the pair of vacuum units to sense motion proximate the respective faucet and the respective pair of vacuum units. Additionally, respective ones of the motion sensors turns on the respective faucet of the respective vacuum unit when the respective motion sensor senses motion.

A vacuum assembly includes a vacuum portion having a vacuum source with an inlet and an outlet and a tank portion. A three-way inlet valve fluidly connects the inlet to the vacuum source with the tank portion when in a first position and fluidly connects the inlet to the vacuum source with an inlet to a surrounding environment when in a second position. A three-way outlet valve fluidly connects the outlet of the vacuum source with an outlet to the surrounding environment when in a first position and the outlet of the vacuum source with the tank portion when in a second position.

A floor nozzle for a vacuum cleaner has a housing, and a base on the housing constructed for sliding in a working direction on a floor and formed with a downwardly open slot-shaped port delimited relative to the direction between a transversely extending front port edge and a transversely extending rear port edge. The base has, extending forward from the front port edge, a part-cylindrical and downwardly convex front surface with a front radius of curvature and centered on a transversely extending symmetry axis and, extending rearward from the rear port edge, a part-cylindrical and downwardly convex rear surface having a rear radius of curvature also centered on the symmetry axis. The housing is constructed for movement of air upward through the port.

A nozzle for a cleaner includes a nozzle housing including a suction flow path through which air including dust flows and at least a portion of which extends in a front and rear direction. First and second rotation cleaning units are arranged on the lower side of the nozzle housing to be spaced apart from each other in a lateral direction. Each of the first and second rotation cleaning units includes a rotation plate adapted for attachment of a mop. A first driving device including a first driving motor drives the first rotation cleaning unit and a second driving device including a second driving motor drives the second rotation cleaning unit. A water tank mounted on the nozzle stores water to be supplied to the mop.

A vacuum attachment for collecting running liquid in tight spaces may include a tray having a bottom surface, sidewalls extending upward from the bottom surface, and a top surface spaced from the bottom surface; at least one drainage orifice extending through the top surface; a liquid containment area positioned between the top surface and the bottom surface; and a nozzle extending from the tray. The nozzle may be in fluid communication with the liquid containment area, and it may be designed to removably engage with an existing vacuum hose. The tray may be a thin tray and, thus, the sidewalls may have a height of less than about 2 inches.
