An extraction head for a cleaning machine is disclosed for traveling along a cleaning path on a variable-height floor. The extraction head comprises a body including a floor-facing surface and an extraction aperture disposed in the floor-facing surface. The extraction head comprises a vacuum outlet in fluid communication with the extraction aperture. The extraction head comprises an adjustable-height brush positioned in front of the extraction head body along the cleaning path. The adjustable-height brush is configured to translocate upwardly and downwardly as the extraction head moves along the cleaning path on the variable-height floor. The adjustable-height brush may comprise a proximal end and a distal end opposite the proximal end. The proximal and distal ends may be configured to translocate upwardly and downwardly relative to each other as the extraction head moves along the cleaning path on the variable-height floor.

A cleaner includes a body, a left spin-mop module and a right spin-mop module configured to perform mopping, and a water supply module configured to supply water to the left spin-mop module and the right spin-mop module. The water supply module includes a water tank to store water therein, a pump to pressurize the water in the water tank to move the water to the left spin-mop module and the right spin-mop module, a first supply pipe connecting the water tank and the pump, a common pipe connected to the pump, the common pump configured to guide movement of the pressurized water from the pump, a first branch pipe configured to guide a first portion of the water in the common pipe to the left spin-mop module, and a second branch pipe configured to guide a second portion of the water in the common pipe to the right spin-mop module.

A surface cleaning apparatus, such as a carpet extractor, includes a base and a fluid recovery system for drawing dirty cleaning fluid from a surface to be cleaned. The fluid recovery system includes a suction nozzle in fluid communication with a recovery chamber. The suction nozzle is mounted to the base for vertical movement with respect to the base and is biased into contact with the surface to be cleaned.

The present invention relates to systems and methods for cleaning materials, such as flooring and upholstery. In some cases, the systems and methods use an electrolytic cell to electrolyze a solution comprising sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium acetate, sodium percarbonate, potassium carbonate, potassium bicarbonate, and/or any other suitable chemical to generate electrolyzed alkaline water and/or electrolyzed oxidizing water. In some cases, the cell comprises a recirculation loop that recirculates anolyte through an anode compartment of the cell. In some cases, the cell further comprises a senor and a processor, where the processor is configured to automatically change an operation of the cell, based on a reading from the sensor. In some cases, a fluid flows past a magnet before entering the cell. In some additional cases, fluid from the cell is conditioned by being split into multiple conduits that run in proximity to each other. Additional implementations are described.

Self-cleaning features for extraction cleaners and attachments for extraction cleaners, such as accessory tools, wands, and/or hoses, are provided. The self-cleaning features are configured redirect cleaning fluid from a fluid supply system of the extraction cleaner into a working air or fluid recovery path of the extraction cleaner, including, but not limited to into the working air or fluid recovery path of a tool, wand, and/or hose of the extraction cleaner.
