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.

A push broom head comprising a base with a leading edge and a trailing edge separated by a width of the base; and tufts of bristles extending from a surface of the base; the tufts of bristles being arranged in rows of bristles of decreasing stiffness from the leading edge to the trailing edge of the base, with a leading row of very stiff bristles and a trailing row of bendable bristles, thereby combining increased ease of handling by a user for an efficient sweeping action, the leading rows loosening and moving heavier particles and the trailing rows loosening and moving finer particles not acted upon by the stiff leading rows.

A modular cleaning set includes one or more separable components magnetically attached to each other, and including a broom, dustpan, mini-brooms, and one or more brushes. The handles and rods of the cleaning set may be reversibly attached to any of the individually separable components.

Foot broom devices are releasably attachable to footwear such as a shoe or boot. In some examples, such a foot broom device enables a user to quickly, conveniently, and frequently sweep debris from an area to keep it clean.

A tool for cleaning a surface is provided. The tool includes a pole and a head member coupled to an end of the pole. A first plurality of bristles extend from a side of the head member opposite the pole. An extension member is separately coupled to an end of the head member. A second plurality of bristles extends from a side of the first extension member and positioned adjacent the first plurality of bristles, the second plurality of bristles including a first portion of bristles that extend on a first angle relative to an end surface of the extension member in a direction away from the pole.

The double action cleaning tool of the present invention includes a dynamic double action dual brush head and a handle. The dynamic double action dual brush head includes two brush heads rotatably attached to a brush head base, allowing the brush heads to independently rotate about the axis in which it is rotatably attached to the brush head base. A mechanical device capable of storing and releasing energy is connected between the two brush heads, which is rigidly attached to the brush head base. The double action cleaning tool stores energy in the form of potential energy in the mechanical energy storage device of the dynamic double action dual brush head during the sweeping stroke of the double action push broom. At the end of the sweeping stroke, the stored potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and rotates the dual brush, thereby providing an additional sweeping motion.

A broom with a brush section and a brush cap into which the upper ends of a plurality of bristles are mounted, a plurality of white-light LEDs, a shaft, a rechargeable battery, an on/off switch, and a printed circuit board. The plurality of white-light LEDs are arranged in two rows around a perimeter of a bottom of the brush cap. The bristles are arranged in clusters, and each cluster is inserted into a hole in the bottom of the brush cap. The ten white-light LEDs are mounted into the bottom of the brush cap at preset, individual orientations so that a central axis of a light beam from each LED is oriented in a direction that is parallel to the bristles that are closest to that particular LED.

A handle-storable sponge mop for use at the end of a broom handle. The handle-storable sponge mop includes a sponge mop body shaped as a truncated square right prism having a leading face and a longest rectangular side which together form a leading beveled cleaning edge. A closed-end cylindrical channel extends partially into the sponge mop body perpendicularly through the square base face. The closed-end cylindrical channel receives and securely holds the handle end of the broom handle when the broom handle is fully inserted into the closed-end cylindrical channel. An open cylindrical channel extends completely through the sponge mop body, and can receive the broom handle such that the broom handle can pass through the open cylindrical channel so that the handle-storable sponge mop can be so stored on the broom handle. In some embodiments, the open cylindrical channel is in substantially perpendicular relationship with the closed-end cylindrical channel.
