Systems, methods, and devices for cleaning a surface and sub-surface or flooring, such as a carpeted flooring and/or fabrics including carpet backing, padding, upholstery, mattress, etc., using a sub-surface fluid injector, such as a pulsation fluid injector are disclosed. The systems, methods, and devices enable spot cleaning a surface or flooring, such as a carpet and cleaning underneath the carpet surface, thereby eliminating reoccurring spots from spills and embedded odors, such as pet urine, using a sub-surface pulsation fluid injector to flush-clean through the sub-surfaces of the flooring thoroughly. The device of the disclosure safely provides a continuous free-flowing stream of fluid through all areas above and below the surface or flooring, for example the carpet face fibers, carpet backing and padding or underlay, in order to chemically treat, break down, carry out and/or remove certain contaminants embedded in the carpeted flooring.

System, method and device for cleaning using a sub-surface fluid injector

An apparatus for cleaning surfaces, particularly solid surfaces, includes an outer housing and an inner housing configured to substantially encapsulate a surface being cleaned, a vacuum source traversing the outer housing, a rotating coupler, an impeller, at least one fluid jet coupled to the impeller, and at least one air induction port. The vacuum source is configured to induce air through the air induction ports past the impeller blades causing the impeller to rotate, which causes the rotating coupler and the fluid jets to rotate. Because the rotation of the fluid jets is due to induced air, the fluid jets can be positioned at any angle desired, including a negative angle.

Air induction hard surface cleaning tools with an internal baffle

A vacuum nozzle for removing liquid from surfaces includes a nozzle body defining an internal enclosed vacuum chamber wherein the chamber is of a size and shallow depth so as to enhance water flow therethrough, the nozzle body also having a vacuum source connector in fluid communication with the chamber and adapted to receive a vacuum source conduit, and the nozzle body also having a hard outer bottom surface and defining a plurality of vacuum suction ports opening between the chamber and the bottom surface. The vacuum nozzle also includes at least one injection member, wherein the at least one injection member is configured to inject a fluid below the nozzle body, whereby the nozzle, when connected to a suction source is placed on a saturated surface effects removal of water therefrom through the ports and chamber to the vacuum source.
