A street sweeper comprises a dirt container and a suction device. The suction device comprises a suction mouth, a suction channel and a suction fan. The suction fan generates a suction flow which leads into the dirt container. Furthermore, the street sweeper comprises a recycling system with a separating device. The separating device separates sucked-in dirty water from the dirt container into the recycling system. Furthermore, the street sweeper comprises a fresh-water tank in which fresh-water is stored. Furthermore, a cleaning device is provided by means of which at least a part of the recycling system can be cleaned. The fresh-water from the fresh-water tank is used for cleaning the recycling system.

A wet-dry vacuum device assembly comprises a housing and a motor-fan assembly mounted in the housing. The motor-fan assembly is arranged to generate an air flow along an airflow path between a dirty air inlet and a clean air exhaust. The wet-dry vacuum device comprises a tank positioned along the airflow path and arranged to capture liquid entrained in the dirty air flow. The wet-dry vacuum device further comprises a removable pump accessory mountable to the housing. The removable pump accessory comprises pump and a fluid inlet in fluid communication with the tank and the pump. A fluid outlet is in fluid communication with the pump and connectable to an exterior hose. The pump is arranged to move captured liquid in the tank from the fluid inlet to the fluid outlet.

A handheld window cleaning machine includes a shell assembly in which a water-air separation unit is accommodated; a water tank assembly at a bottom of the shell assembly, a wastewater separation unit in the water tank assembly, an outlet of the wastewater separation unit in communication with an inlet of the water-air separation unit; and a suction nozzle assembly pluggably connected to a front end of the shell assembly, an outlet of the suction nozzle assembly in communication with the wastewater separation unit; an air outlet of the water-air separation unit is open outward, and a wastewater backflow opening at a bottom of the water-air separation unit, and the wastewater backflow opening in communication with an inlet of the wastewater separation unit. The cleaning efficiency of the window cleaning machine is ensured, and wastewater is effectively separated from air.

The present disclosure provides a rod-type cleaning component and a dust collector with the same. The rod-type cleaning component includes a rod body, the rod body includes a suction pipe connected with a suction inlet of a floor brush, a recycling tank for recycling sewage and a solution tank for providing clean liquid, a main unit joint is arranged at an upper end of the rod body, a floor brush joint is arranged at a lower end, and more than one separation ribs are arranged in an inner cavity of the suction pipe to divide the inner cavity into more than two chamber air ducts.

A flange unit for a filter unit for positioning in a water treatment device, the water treatment device including a water reservoir and a suction head. The flange unit includes a base plate having a central recess for accommodating a filling piece of the suction head, a connecting unit for detachably connecting the flange unit to an inner side of the water reservoir, a closure element for closing the recess, and a handle unit for detaching the connecting unit from the flange holding device and for carrying the filter unit.

In one aspect, the invention is directed to a cleaning machine that includes a fresh liquid tank, a vacuum tank, and an electromechanical assemblywith the electromechanical assembly including an electromechanical housing, a pump, and a vacuum motor. In this particular aspect of the invention, the pump and the vacuum motor are mounted to the electromechanical housing; and the electromechanical assembly is releasably connected to the fresh liquid tank. In another aspect, the invention is directed to a method for rapid replacement of the electromechanical components of the cleaning machine described immediately above. The method includes disconnecting the electromechanical assembly from the fresh liquid tank, and connecting a replacement electromechanical assembly to the fresh liquid tank. The replacement electromechanical assembly includes a replacement electromechanical housing, a replacement pump, and a replacement vacuum motor, with the replacement pump and replacement vacuum motor being mounted to the replacement electromechanical housing. In a further aspect, the invention is directed to a cleaning machine that includes a vacuum tank comprising a suction inlet, a vacuum motor operable to vacuum a soil-containing liquid into the vacuum tank through the suction inlet, and a HEPA filtration assembly constructed and arranged to receive a HEPA filter. In this fashion, air drawn into the vacuum tank through the suction inlet may undergo high efficiency filtration before exiting the cleaning machine.

A floor cleaning device having an anti-bacterial treatment system includes a recovery tank configured to receive and retain waste cleaning liquid, a recovery hose in fluid communication with the recovery tank, and a vacuum system configured to draw waste cleaning liquid from a surface that is being cleaned through the recovery hose and into the recovery tank. An anti-bacterial material is located whereby at least some of the waste cleaning liquid discharged into the recovery tank passes over the anti-bacterial material. In a particular embodiment a debris trap assembly is positioned within the recovery tank such that waste cleaning liquid drawn through the recovery hose passes through the debris tray prior to discharging into the recovery tank, with the anti-bacterial material disposed at the debris tray.
