Patent number: 5776215Abstract: An improved machine for household cleaning which has, in a box-like body, a vacuum-cleaner section composed of a fan that is coupled to an electric motor, the intake of the fan being connected to a dirt suction duct. In the vacuum-cleaner section, upstream of the fan, the discharge of the fan generates a secondary air stream, separate from a main stream that contains dirt, in at least one Venturi duct that draws water from a water container and ends in a region where the main air stream passes, so as to wet and remove the dirt contained in the main stream.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 1996Date of Patent: July 7, 1998Assignee: T.P.A.
