Abstract:

A residential wood floor cleaning machine provides an easily attachable and removable cleaning cloth to a rotating orbiting head mounted in a lightweight structure for use in cleaning wood floors in residences. The cleaning machine includes LED's for illuminating an area of the wood floor adjacent to the head. A mechanical spray pump with a removable reservoir controllably sprays a controlled amount of cleaning solution on the illuminated area. An electrical control requires that the light is on whenever the power is on. A mechanical sprayer operating means is mounted within a tubular structure which supports the sprayer. The tubular structure is preferably interconnected with a pivoting handle with a truss like structure which reduces the overall weight of the machine. The handle bracket is provided with a stop to prevent pivoting by more than 90 degrees.
