Abstract (en)

A floor cleaning head (13) for a vacuum cleaner (10) comprises a housing (22) having an elongate suction mouth on its underside (15), a rotatable agitator roller (16) mounted in the suction mouth (15) and a detachable elongate floor cleaning roller (30) mounted axially in a cavity (56) which extends parallel with the suction mouth (15). The floor cleaning roller (30) comprises a tubular core (34) forming a dispensing container and a surrounding sleeve (33) of an absorbent material configured to wipe the floor surface during cleaning. A clip (32) is provided for rotatably engaging one end of the floor cleaning roller (30) and for detachably securing it to the housing (22). In use, the head (13) conveniently enables floors to be swept by the agitator (16) and simultaneous washed, wiped or dried by the floor cleaning roller (30).
