Abstract: A floor cleaning apparatus. The apparatus has a cleaning head portion for engaging a floor surface during cleaning, an upstanding portion for maneuvering movement of the cleaning head portion, a liquid delivery assembly, a handle portion extending from the upstanding portion and a sealed liquid storage container. The assembly includes a single needle defining a first passageway for allowing cleaning detergent from the sealed storage container to travel to the cleaning head portion therethrough and a second passageway for allowing as or air to travel from the surrounding to the sealed storage container for pressure equalization, and wherein the needle has a non-cylindrical configuration and a flattened configuration.

Abstract: A noise-reduced and quietly operable electrically driven toothbrush with a technically simple basic structure includes a handle portion at a first end of the toothbrush and a head portion at a second end of the toothbrush. The head portion is detachably connectable to the handle portion. A rotatable drive shaft extends at least in the head portion and defines a first longitudinal axis. An electric drive unit directly or indirectly rotates the drive shaft. A bristle holder is pivotally mounted to the head portion and is drivingly engaged by an end of the drive shaft.

Abstract: There is disclosed a floor cleaning apparatus. The apparatus has a cleaning head portion for engaging a floor surface during cleaning, an upstanding portion for maneuvering movement of said cleaning head portion, a liquid delivery assembly, a handle portion extending from said upstanding portion and a sealed liquid storage container. The cleaning head portion includes a first nozzle and a second nozzle arranged on lateral opposite ends for forward discharging of cleaning detergent therefrom. The liquid delivery assembly is configured to prevent, or at least minimize, undesirable leaking from the nozzles regardless of the orientation of the apparatus or the assembly.

Abstract: An applicator head for selectively dispensing product includes a base structure and a support structure. The base structure includes a top face inclined relative to a bottom face, and a first side wall. The top face includes a base flange, and defines a first orifice in fluid communication with a fastener of the bottom face. The support structure includes a lower face inclined relative to an upper face, and a second side wall. The upper face includes a top surface and defines a second orifice. The lower face includes a support flange engaged with the base flange such that the support structure is pivotable relative to the base structure between first and second positions. Fluid communication is facilitated from the fastener through the second orifice in only one of the first and second positions. A dispenser is also provided.
