Abstract

A steam mop having a main body having a boiler with a water inlet and a steam outlet positioned therein, a pump having an inlet and an outlet with the pump outlet connected to the boiler inlet, a water container for storing water connected to the pump inlet, and a steam pocket frame connected to the steam outlet, where the activation of the pump pumps water from the water container to the boiler for generation of steam. In an embodiment of the invention, a steam mop having a main body with a boiler, a water container, a mechanical water pump between the boiler and container and at least one side arm connecting the boiler steam outlet to a fabric steam pocket frame. The water pump is actuated by movement of the mop when cleaning to send water to the boiler. The steam pad frame is substantially rectangular with a plurality of baffles in a square grid formation extending outwardly to distribute steam to distribute steam between the baffles. A replaceable fabric pad fits snugly on the frame to distribute cleaning steam to the surface to be cleaned.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to a steam mop, and more particularly to a steam mop comprising a water pump activated by user action to pump water from a water reservoir to a boiler for generating steam to be dispensed, which will be Dispense to steam nozzles coupled to the boiler and to pads for application to the surface to be cleaned. Background technique [0002] Conventional mops have been widely used for cleaning floors. However, conventional mops cannot effectively clean dirt in small crevices and floor gaps. Additionally, conventional mops require frequent lifting because mops are only effective at cleaning a small surface area at a time. [0003] Various steaming devices are known for applying steam to household objects. The uses of such devices are numerous and may include applying steam to drapes or other fabrics to loosen wrinkles, and applying steam to items to assist in cleaning the items. [0004] A typical steam appliance h...
