A portable device for receiving a liquid from a floor via a squeegee or another scraping implement includes a container having a bottom and an opening that is distanced from the bottom, a ramp that extends from the opening of the container to a position generally levelled with the bottom, the ramp being adapted to receive the squeegee in a scraping movement thereon, and a handle portion that is more distanced from the bottom of the container than the opening thereof. The handle portion is adapted to receive a blade portion of the squeegee in order to move the device therewith.

A cleaning machine may include: a first brush comprising a first brush shaft extending in a left-right direction and a first brush body held by the first brush shaft; a second brush comprising a second brush shaft extending in the left-right direction and a second brush body held on the second brush shaft; a brush supporting member supporting each of the first brush and the second brush such that the first brush and the second brush are rotatable; a body supporting the brush supporting member such that the brush supporting member is pivotable; and a pivot mechanism configured to pivot the brush supporting member with respect to the body. At least the first brush may move with respect to the body in an up-down direction when the brush supporting member pivots with respect to the body.

A scrubbing tool for cleaning a surface that has a handle for holding by a user in a cleaning operation. The handle has a first connector. The scrubbing tool also has a cleaning head having a second connector configured to mate with the first connector in order to attach the cleaning head to the handle in an engaged position. The cleaning head is comprised entirely of a material configured to dissolve in water and has a cleaning agent.

A combination of a floor cleaner and a cleaning tray. At least a portion of a base of the floor cleaner is received by a reservoir of the cleaning tray. The floor cleaner further including an upright portion movable between an inclined use position and an upright storage position. The brushroll is powered by a brushroll motor. The brushroll motor includes a control circuit that controls the brushroll. The control circuit has a first switch that is open when the floor cleaner is in the upright position and closed when the floor cleaner is in the inclined use position. The second switch is in parallel with the first switch. The second switch is opened in response to the portion of the base being removed from the cleaning tray and the second switch is closed when the portion of the base is in the cleaning tray.

A handheld cleaning device includes a surface-moving portion and an upright portion. The surface-moving portion is in contact with a surface to be cleaned and is connected with the upright portion. The upright portion is configured to move the surface-moving portion in a case in which the surface-moving portion is in operation. The handheld cleaning device further includes a power battery configured to supply power to the handheld cleaning device. The surface-moving portion further includes at least two non-coaxial brushrolls configured to clean stains on the surface to be cleaned. The rotation speed of each brushroll is less than 3000 r/min.

A vacuum cleaner is disclosed. The vacuum cleaner comprises: a suction nozzle including a rotating cleaner located in front of a suction port; a cleaning main body provided with a first motor that generates a suction force; and a distance sensor coupled to the suction nozzle. The distance sensor detects a distance from a wall surface located in front of the suction nozzle, and when the distance (distance value) is less than or equal to a reference value, the rotation speed of the first motor is increased. Accordingly, when the suction nozzle touches the wall surface and cannot move forward, the suction force is momentarily increased such that foreign substances such as dust can be effectively sucked in from the edge of the wall surface, and effective use of a battery can be achieved.

Disclosed is a cleaner. A cleaner according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a brush; and a removal member that is positioned adjacent to the brush. The brush is rotated to collect garbage, such as hair, located on a floor surface. The collected garbage, such as hair, may be pushed by the removal member and separated from the brush. The garbage, such as hair, separated from the brush may pass through a nozzle housing and may then be collected in a dust bin. Therefore, the garbage, such as hair, attached to the brush can be easily separated and collected without a separate removal process. Accordingly, user convenience can be improved.

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 cleaning implement which utilizes a low-power motor coupled to a plurality of angle gears and drive lines for creating a mechanical action adapted to clean hair and fur. The device includes a housing, which may be bifurcated, and a plurality of bristled protrusions positioned in staggered form along elongated shafts connected to drive lines using angle gears.

A floor brush assembly and cleaning equipment with the floor brush assembly for cleaning surfaces to be cleaned. The forward direction of the floor brush assembly is the front and the opposite direction is the back. The floor brush assembly comprises a floor brush base, a roller brush with a roller being arranged on the floor brush base, and a second scraping piece which is arranged on the bottom of the floor brush base and in front of the roller brush and is provided with at least two second bumps distributed at intervals along its length direction. At least the roller brush abuts on the surface to be cleaned when the roller brush abuts on the surface to be cleaned, with a second channel for dirt passing through being formed between the adjacent second bumps to make dirt reach the suction inlet of the floor brush base.
