A powered scrubbing wand assembly for scrubbing a surface includes a handle that can be gripped during cleaning activities. A cleaning head is coupled to the handle and a drive unit is integrated into the handle. The drive unit rotates in a first direction when the drive unit is turned on. A spray unit is integrated into the handle for spraying a fluid soap when the spray unit is turned on. A plurality of scrubbers is each removably attachable to the cleaning head. The drive unit rotates the scrubber on the cleaning head when the drive unit is turned on thereby facilitating the scrubber to scrub a surface.

Novel cleaning implements and novel components of cleaning implements are provided. Aspects relate to a cleaning implement that includes a wringer structure that is slidable along an elongate shaft member. The wringer structure further includes a removably coupled scrubbing brush structure.

A grout cleaning attachment configured for removably attaching to a shoe enables a user to scrub a grout line with their foot. The grout cleaning attachment includes a brush that extends out and away from a toe section of the shoe so that a person using the attachment can see where the brush bristles are and locate the brush over the grout line. The grout cleaning attachment includes a cup section that slides over the front section of the shoe and a strap on the aft section that wraps around the person's shoe and ankle to secure the grout cleaning attachment to the shoe. The grout cleaning attachment is light in weight and easy to install and remove from a shoe being worn by a person. The brush is narrow in width and long in length so that most of the bristles will be used to brush over the grout line. Also, the brush can be curved upward in order to improve the brushing performance for cleaning a grout line.

A cleaning robot, a control method, and a storage medium, the cleaning robot comprising a roller brush assembly, a roller brush switching assembly, a detection assembly, and a control assembly, the roller brush assembly comprising at least two roller brushes; the detection assembly is used for detecting the medium type of the surface to be cleaned and generating a signal on the basis of the detection result; and the control assembly is used for controlling the roller brush switching assembly on the basis of the signal of the detection assembly to switch to at least one of the roller brushes amongst the at least two roller brushes for executing a cleaning operation.

A vacuum cleaner comprising: a cleaner main body configured to generate suction power; and a suction unit configured to suck dust using the suction power. The suction unit comprising: a drum brush comprising a cylindrical drum rotatable to brush away dust from a floor, and conductive bristles provided on an outer circumferential surface of the drum; and a conductive dust guide unit comprising a guide portion connectable to the cleaner main body and configured to guide the sucked dust to be transferred to the cleaner main body, and a contact portion formed to extend from the guide portion, provided to be in contact with the bristles of the drum brush, and configured to transfer static electricity, which is charged as the vacuum cleaner is operated, from the cleaner main body to the conductive bristles of the drum brush.

A cleaning brush comprises a removable handle and a brush. The removable handle includes a connector portion having a backing plate with means for connecting the handle to a brush, and means for releasing the handle to detach the handle from the brush. The brush includes a brush plate having means configured to receive the means for connecting and detaching the handle from the brush plate. The brush plate has a rigid portion and a flexible portion. The flexible portion may include segments defined by channels in the flexible portion.

A cleaning apparatus holder assembly is described herein comprising in one example: a mounting pad configured to be attached to a work surface of a sink; the mounting pad comprising a first pivot component having a first axis of rotation; a swivel removably mounted to the mounting pad at the first pivot component and configured to rotate relative to the mounting pad about the first axis of rotation; the swivel comprising a second pivot component having a second axis of rotation not parallel to the first axis of rotation; and a resting arm mounted to the swivel at the second pivot component, configured to rotate relative to the swivel about the second axis of rotation; the second axis of rotation defining a lifting plane orthogonal to the second axis of rotation.

A fluid flow actuated tool including a housing, a tool and an actuating mechanism. The housing includes a housing interior. The housing interior receives a flow of fluid. The actuating mechanism includes a fluid wheel structure. The fluid wheel structure is connected to the tool. At least a portion of the fluid wheel structure is arranged in the flow of fluid for rotating the fluid wheel structure. The tool is actuated based on rotation of the fluid wheel structure.

A surface cleaning apparatus can include a housing adapted to move across a surface to be cleaned, and an edge cleaning brush provided on the housing. The edge cleaning brush can include an attachment hub connectable with a drive coupling for rotating the brush, a cleaning implement configured to contact the surface to be cleaned, and a tensioner hub applying downward force onto the cleaning implement. Drive couplings for the edge cleaning brush are also disclosed, such as drive couplings including a worm and belt that are indirectly drive via a brushroll.

Cleaning tools are mounted directly to rotary spindles of conventional string trimmers. The cleaning tools have brush channels which extend through one or more sides thereof, with each brush channel having an edge channel and a bristle channel. The edge channels are disposed interiorly within the body of respective ones of the bristle channels. Channel brush inserts are secured in respective ones of the brush channels, and each includes a mounting base and a bristle body. The mounting bases are inserted into respective ones of the edge channels and the bristle bodies extend from a respective one of the mounting bases through the bristle channels, from the one or more sides and exteriorly of the cleaning tool. One cleaning tool has three brush channels formed to extend into a laterally extending sidewall. In another cleaning tool the brush channels are formed to extend into the bottom end surface thereof.
