Abstract: Various illustrative handheld surface cleaners and methods of using handheld surface cleaners are provided. In an exemplary implementation, the handheld surface cleaner is configured to use suction to draw debris into the handheld surface cleaner. The suction also causes air to be drawn into the handheld surface cleaner. The handheld surface cleaner is configured to separate the air and the debris on board the handheld surface cleaner to allow the air to exit the handheld surface cleaner and to allow the debris to be collected in the handheld surface cleaner for later disposal.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a debris container for a surface cleaning device, where the surface cleaning device includes an upright section, a surface cleaning head, a fluid distributor configured to distribute a cleaning fluid, and an agitator configured to absorb at least a portion of the distributed cleaning fluid and to agitate debris on a surface to be cleaned, the debris container comprising a solid debris chamber configured to collect at least a portion of the debris agitated from the surface to be cleaned; and a fluid debris chamber configured to collect at least a portion of fluid removed from the agitator.

Abstract: A nozzle assembly for a cleaning apparatus can include a brushroll, a motor disposed within the brushroll and configured to rotate the brushroll, a debris receptacle comprising a debris inlet. A scraper may be disposed above the debris inlet such that the scraper projects into the brushroll. A ramp can be formed on the scraper. The ramp may extend between an outer edge of the scraper above the debris inlet and into an interior region of the debris receptacle. The ramp can include a runoff surface configured to direct debris and liquid removed from the brushroll by the scraper as the brushroll rotates into the debris receptacle at a negative angle relative to a surface being cleaned. A squeegee assembly may be disposed across a full width of the nozzle assembly.
