Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif nettoyeur aspirant qui permet de distribuer un liquide, frotter, racler, et sécher par aspiration au moyen d'un seul dispositif compact autonome. Le dispositif nettoyeur aspirant comprend un corps de dispositif nettoyeur, un manche relié au corps, un élément nettoyeur absorbant qui est monté sur le corps et qui peut être déplacé entre une position étendue et une position rétractée, et deux lames de raclette. Le dispositif de la présente invention comprend un système aspirant qui aspire l'eau depuis la surface du sol nettoyé jusque dans un réservoir monté sur le corps, qui est destiné à recueillir le liquide provenant de la surface du sol. Une bouteille d'eau propre placée sur le corps est utilisée pour distribuer le liquide de nettoyage sur le sol et le moteur du dispositif aspirant est alimenté par une batterie rechargeable. Ce dispositif nettoyeur léger et compact laisse le sol pratiquement sec.
