An onboard washing system provides the ability to wash specific areas at the rear of a concrete truck, without requiring an operator to climb a ladder or climb on the truck. Certain specified areas which are traditionally difficult to wash, including the inside of the charge hopper, the interior portions of the discharge chute, and rear portions of the mixing drum structure, can now be washed in an automated and efficient manner. The truck-mounted washing system has components which are specifically positioned to cause washing fluid (water) to be sprayed or directed toward predetermined areas in an efficient and effective manner. The system also includes hand-held washing wands or washing mechanisms, which allow an operator to easily reach additional zones or additional areas at the rear of the truck, which are lower. Most significantly, the truck-mounted wash systems and the hand-held nozzle systems (wand) are all operable while an operator remains on the ground.

The present disclosure generally relates to a portable, daily-use cleaning product. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to an apparatus, device, or structural system that is adapted to clean or disinfect a restraining member, such as a seatbelt in a car or a restraining belt of an airplane seat or train, or a supporting member, such as a support bar in a subway car or metro bus, and other suitable examples.

There is provided a system and method of cleaning surfaces of an enclosable environment of a contamination comprising a microbial and viral load. The method includes the steps of sealing the enclosable environment and placing water, and a solid or gel pack, into a container and generating a vortex the container by rotating an impeller. The agitation causes the solid or gel pack to release a gaseous cleaning agent. An air-borne spray exiting from the container spreads throughout the enclosable environment to contact the surfaces to be cleaned within the enclosable environment. The enclosable environment is maintained closed for an effective time period while the air-borne spray dwells on the surfaces to eliminate or substantially reduce the load of the contamination.

A thermal shield system with wireless control capabilities including a multi-layer shield, a housing containing a power source and processor, and a programmable control mechanism, wherein the control mechanism is in communication with the processor to facilitate direct or remote manual programming of time and temperature of the shield system. The multi-layer shield includes a perimeter having a first layer comprised of reflective material, a second layer comprised of a plurality of conductive pads arranged in a plurality of rows within a structural support sheet, a third layer comprised of thermal material, an electrical wire running through and connecting said conductive pads of the second layer, and a surround spanning the perimeter of the shield. The surround of the shield has flexibility to allow folding or rolling for compact storage of said shield and having rigidity to provide structural integrity of said shield. The electrical wire connects each of the plurality of conductive pads in a series to generate consistent and uniform heat while minimizing depletion of the power source.

A vehicle cleaning system for cleaning a vehicle including a processor and a memory including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations. The operations include determining that a passenger compartment of the vehicle requires cleaning and identifying a type of cleaning required. The operations also include that at least one of a fragrance system, a dry particulate removal system, and a wet particulate removal system is activated in response to the type of cleaning required.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a steam ironing system for a vehicle seat cover, which comprises a steam tank for heating water to generate steam; a steam injection assembly for receiving the steam generated from the steam tank and injecting the steam to the vehicle seat at a predetermined interval from the vehicle seat; an automated robot for guiding a movement of the steam injection assembly; a steam ironing assembly, coupled to a robot mounting unit provided in the automated robot with the steam injection assembly, for receiving the steam generated from the steam tank and ironing the vehicle seat; a steam supplying unit for supplying the steam to the steam injection assembly or the steam ironing assembly, one end thereof being connected to the steam tank; a water recovery unit detachably connected to the steam supplying unit, for recovering water generated in the steam supplying unit during a steam supplying process; a steam supply controlling unit for selectively supplying the steam via the water recovery unit to the steam injection assembly or the steam ironing assembly; and a recovery tank for storing water recovered from the water recovery unit.

A washing machine for washing vehicle floor mats that are made of rubber includes a housing with an interior washing chamber having an arrangement of rotating water nozzles that direct a pressurized spray of water onto the top side of the rubber floor mat that is held in opposing relation to the water nozzles. An electric motor operates a water pump to direct pressurized waterflow to the water nozzles. At the end of a washing cycle, the electric motor and pump are disabled and an air blower is activated to direct a flow of air onto the rubber floor mat during a drying cycle. A drain on the floor of the washing chamber directs the dirty water out of the housing of the machine which may be directed to a collection reservoir or the surrounding environment.

The invention relates to a suction cleaning attachment (1) of a cleaning device (2) for use for the interior cleaning of motor vehicles by means of a suction air flow and provided for insertion and for holding in a quiver (3) when not in use, with a housing (5) having an internal suction channel (4) for guiding the suction air flow and a grip region (6) provided on the outside of the housing (5), wherein the suction channel (4) leads into a suction opening (8) at its outer end (7). According to the invention it is proposed that on the outside of the housing (5) between the suction opening (8) and the grip region (6), a stop (9) constructed as a step or a stop (9) projecting beyond the grip region (6) is provided for interaction with the outer edge (10) of the quiver (3).
