A floor cleaner includes an electrically powered component and a switch. The switch includes a button including an actuator surface. A fluid channel is formed by a fluid collection surface disposed below the button and an outer channel wall extending upwardly from the fluid collection surface, the fluid channel having a fluid outlet. A projection of the button is received in an inner button aperture formed by an inner wall extending from the fluid collection surface forming a bushing around the projection. The inner wall inhibits flow of fluid from the fluid channel through the inner button aperture. The outer channel wall surrounds the aperture wall such that fluid entering the body between the perimeter of the button actuator surface and the aperture wall is collected by the fluid channel and directed to the fluid outlet.

A floor polishing machine for concrete includes a frame with an integrated hydraulic fluid tank, a hydraulic drive system, and a hydraulic pump vacuum system. Further, the machine provides a swivel polishing head that provides abutting contact with a floor and includes a floating ring and rubber skirts that seals the polishing head. The machine provides interchangeable wet and dry vacuum systems for collection of the slurry during wet operation and dust during dry operation. A support member inserts into a receiving sleeve for a choice of wet or dry option. A squeegee system attached to the rear of the apparatus collects slurry and operates to send the slurry to a collection tank. The squeegee lifts out of the way during dry operation.

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.

An automatic floor-disinfection robot for floors of hospital rooms, including a moving device, a alarm and a disinfection device. The moving device is a disc-shaped robot, and includes a chassis moving mechanism, a support plate and a top plate arranged successively from bottom to top. The disinfection device includes a disinfection assembly and a baffle. The disinfection assembly includes a liquid supply mechanism, a liquid spray mechanism and a fan.

The extent of the movement area of an autonomous mobile object is appropriately fed back for the extent of the movement area in the next operation at a low cost. An autonomous mobile object (1) includes an operation result map creation unit (21) that creates, on the basis of a log of the position of a cleaning brush (9), an operation result map in which a cleaned area is indicated, and a next-cleaning-area setting unit (22) that sets a next cleaning area on the basis of the operation result map displayed on an operation panel (13).

Embodiments include a surface maintenance machine, comprising a maintenance tool chamber comprising a first side, a second side, a third side and a fourth side. A rotary broom is housed in the maintenance tool chamber and substantially enclosed by the first, second, third and fourth sides thereof. The rotary broom sweeps particulate from the surface. A vacuum system generates vacuum for drawing particulate swept by the rotary broom. The vacuum system is positioned proximal to the first side. A skirt assembly extends substantially around the second, third and fourth sides of the maintenance tool chamber. The skirt assembly has a vacuum passage defined therein and in fluid communication with the vacuum system to direct air flow into the vacuum passage, thereby drawing particulate into the vacuum passage and preventing particulate accumulation at portions of the second, third and fourth sides that are distal to the vacuum system.

A cleaning apparatus for cleaning grout in tile floors and other surfaces has a proximal end (1) connected to a vacuum source (11) and a high pressure water source (12) activated by a trigger mechanism (13) connected by conduits (6, 8) to a distal end (2) having a cleaning head (7) with nozzle (18) and brush barriers (21, 22) to retain water for conveying by vacuum to the vacuum source.
