The cleaning member includes a mounting section which is molded integrally from a soft and flexible material and which is for mounting the cleaning member onto the main body casing, and at least one downwardly extending plate.

Cleaning members for cleaning areas near walls used in floor cleaner

A wiping instrument can clean places which previously have been difficult to clean is arranged such that a ground contact pressure of a wiping cloth per unit area is allowed to increase, and further a wiping cloth on the instrument can scrub the surface to be cleaned so as to follow irregularities existing on the surface to be cleaned. Accordingly, the wiping instrument provides a wiping cloth which is attached to the bottom of a base plate portion provided with a handle. The wiping operation is performed by moving the wiping cloth over a surface to be cleaned. The base plate portion is made of a rigid material and a plurality of elastic projections are erected on substantially all of the surface of the bottom of the base plate portion. The wiping cloth is attached to the bottom of the base plate portion so as to cover a plurality of the elastic projections.
