Abstract: A mobile hard surface cleaner includes a motorized scrub head, a fluid recovery device, a primary cleaning liquid component container, a cleaning agent container, a flow control device and a fluid flow path. The flow control device is configured to supply a flow of cleaning agent from the cleaning agent container at a predetermined volume flow rate of greater than 0 cubic centimeters per minute and less than 10 cubic centimeters per minute to a flow of primary cleaning liquid component from the primary cleaning liquid component container. The fluid flow path is configured to receive a flow of cleaning liquid, which comprises the cleaning agent and the primary cleaning liquid component.

Abstract: A hard surface cleaner includes a motorized scrub head, a fluid recovery device, a primary cleaning liquid component container, a cleaning agent container, a flow control device and a fluid flow path. The flow control device is configured to supply a flow of cleaning agent from the cleaning agent container at a flow rate of less than approximately cubic centimeters per minute to a flow of primary cleaning liquid component from the primary cleaning liquid component container. The fluid flow path is configured to receive a flow of cleaning liquid, which comprises the cleaning agent and the primary cleaning liquid component.

Abstract: A surface cleaner includes a liquid dispensing system comprising a fluid flow path configured to receive a flow of liquid, a pump, an air purging component, and a valve actuator. The pump is in line with the fluid flow path and is configured to drive the flow of liquid through the fluid flow path. The air purging component includes an inlet in line with the fluid flow path, an outlet, an airflow path connecting the inlet and the outlet, and a valve in line with the airflow path. The valve includes an open position in which the airflow path is open between the inlet and the outlet and a closed position in which the airflow path is closed between the inlet and the outlet. The valve actuator is connected to the valve and is configured to bias the valve in the open position when air is detected in the fluid flow path.

Abstract: A sanitation device includes a mobile body, a surface cleaning component, and a source of UV radiation. The surface cleaning component and the source of UV radiation are mounted to the mobile body, which is configured to travel over a surface. The surface cleaning component is configured to engage the surface and the source of UV radiation is configured to direct UV radiation to the surface.
