  • Patent number: 11369241
    Abstract: A sweeper/vacuum ride-on cleaning system includes a vacuum and sweeping mechanism using a sweeper brush and vacuum brush in one cleaning head. A caster leveling system is used for setting the level of the head above the floor. A single motor drive system using a two-sided belt is used for driving the sweeper brush and vacuum brush. A dust management system using holes adjacent to a debris try for holding debris in the tray. A pivoting door access assembly is used for allowing the sweeper brush and vacuum brush to be accessed and removed from the side of the cleaning head. Finally, a bag cage with holes throughout each of its supporting surfaces is used for holding the vacuum bag and allowing air to escape from all sides of the bag to increase vacuum efficiency.

  • Patent number: 11304387
    Abstract: A landscaping blower nozzle assembly includes an inlet section for allowing air into the assembly, an elbow section and a motor. A nozzle is insertable into the elbow section such that the motor moves the elbow section in a moveable motion back and forth though at least 180 degree of motion for aiding the operator in the movement and removal of leaves and other debris. A breakaway coupler prevents damage to the blower nozzle when coming into contact with a rigid surface or structure. A tensioner assembly prevents distortion of the nozzle tip when subjected to high velocity air from the blower motor.

  • Publication number: 20220088626
    Abstract: An electrostatic spraying wand includes a housing and a power source for operating an electrostatic generator. The electrostatic generator supplies a substantially high voltage to an electrode where a fluid is supplied to the electrode though a solution supply line. Thereafter, the charged solution is directed through a nozzle assembly. Since the electrostatic spraying wand supplies a charge to the cleaning fluid within the wand it can be used with a variety of devices enabling the charged solution to kill pathogens and other germs.

  • Patent number: 11149746
    Abstract: A landscaping blower mounting accessory for use with a utility vehicle includes a blade connecter mounted to the utility vehicle. A receiving coupler is attached to the landscaping blower and shaped to receive the blade. A landscaping blower is oriented so that a housing covering a blower impeller is positioned between the utility vehicle and the blower motor. The mounting assembly allows the blade to frictionally engage within the coupler for holding the landscaping blower in a fixed positon above the ground on the front of the utility vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20190075992
    Abstract: A mobile floor scrubber includes an orbital scrub head attached to a forward portion of its chassis. The scrubber head includes a rotary motor, an eccentric drive assembly and a floor engaging scrubbing pad which engages and cleans the floor. The eccentric drive mechanism introduces vibration in the orbital scrub head which is transferred to the chassis which reduces the energy used to perform the scrubbing task and reduces the operating efficiency of the floor scrubber. The floor scrubber further includes a cleaning fluid delivery system for providing a cleaning fluid to the scrubbing pad for application to the floor during the cleaning operation. The scrub head includes a first upper plate and a second lower plate arranged in vertically spaced relation, with both plates being generally planar and rectangular in shape.
