First Claim
Patent Images
1. A cleaning apparatus comprising:
- an elongated housing having a chamber;
a motor at least partially disposed within the chamber of the housing;
a drive shaft at least partially disposed within the chamber of the housing, the drive shaft being coupled with the motor such that during selective operation of the motor, the drive shaft is rotated about a rotational axis of the drive shaft; and
a first brush head having a rotational axis about which the first brush head rotates, the first brush head having a first scrubbing element and being removably coupled with the drive shaft such that rotation of the drive shaft facilitates rotation of the first brush head.

Abstract
A cleaning apparatus includes an elongated housing bounding a chamber with a motor disposed therein. A drive shaft is at least partially disposed within the chamber of the housing, the drive shaft being coupled with the motor such that during selective operation of the motor the drive shaft is rotated continuously. A brush head having a scrubbing element is removably coupled with the drive shaft such that rotation of the drive shaft facilitates rotation of the brush head.

24. A cleaning apparatus comprising:
-
(i) a body assembly comprising; an elongated body housing having a chamber; a motor at least partially disposed within the chamber of the body housing; and a body drive shaft at least partially disposed within the chamber of the body housing, the body drive shaft being coupled with the motor such that during selective operation of the motor, the body drive shaft is rotated about a rotational axis thereof; (ii) a first partial head assembly removably coupled with the body assembly, the first partial head assembly comprising; a first head housing; a first head drive shaft disposed within the first head housing and having a rotational axis about which the first head drive shaft rotates; a first head plate having a rotational axis about which the first head plate rotates, the first head plate being coupled with the first head drive shaft such that rotation of the first head drive shaft facilitates rotation of the first head plate, the first partial head assembly being adapted to be selectively coupled with the body assembly so that the body drive shaft is coupled with the first head drive shaft; and (iii) a first brush head removably coupled with the first partial head assembly, the first brush head comprising; a first brush plate removably coupled with the first head plate so that rotation of the first head plate causes rotation of the first brush head; and a first scrubbing element secured to the first brush plate.

29. A replacement head assembly comprising:
a partial head assembly comprising a head housing; a head drive shaft disposed within the head housing and having a rotational axis about which the head drive shaft rotates; a head plate having a rotational axis about which the head plate rotates, the head plate being coupled with the head drive shaft such that rotation of the head drive shaft facilitates rotation of the head plate; and a first brush head adapted to be removably coupled with the partial head assembly, the first brush head comprising; a first brush plate removably coupled with the head plate so that rotation of the head plate causes rotation of the first brush head; and a first scrubbing element secured to the first brush plate. - View Dependent Claims (30)
