  • Patent number: 10905296
    Abstract: A floor cleaning tool including a housing, a reservoir coupled to the housing and adapted to hold a cleaning solution, and a floor-engaging roller coupled to the housing and rotatable with respect to the housing. The tool also includes a wheel by which the floor cleaning tool moves across a floor surface in a direction of travel at least partially defining a front, rear, and lateral sides of the floor cleaning tool. The tool further includes a squeegee laterally insertable between the roller and the wheel, and a squeegee mount located between the roller and the wheel by which the squeegee is releasably mounted to the floor cleaning tool by first and second laterally opposed protrusions rotatably secured within first and second apertures at opposite ends of the squeegee.

  • Publication number: 20130047353
    Abstract: A floor cleaning tool having a body, a cleaning solution reservoir, a brush or other rotating roll by which floor cleaning is performed, and at least one wheel enabling tool movement across a floor. In some embodiments, the tool has a rotatable handle that can be locked in two or more rotational positions, and that can be rotated about a laterally-extending axis of the handle. Some embodiments of the tool have a roll retained by a bracket having one or more axially-extending portions secured by a fastener for easy roll removal, service, and/or replacement. Some embodiment of the tool have a resiliently deformable fluid nozzle plate for easy cleaning. The tool can have a squeegee assembly that is laterally insertable (e.g., between the roll and wheels of the tool) for mounting, such as by rotatable projections insertable into a mount of the tool.
