Abstract:
1. A carpet washing device comprising: a washing head comprising at least four fluid connected hollow members, said hollow members enclosing a roughly rectangular cleaning space; a vacuum hose attached to the washing head providing suction to the cleaning space; a liquid line attached to the washing head to deliver liquid to the hollow members; the hollow members having jet holes for directing water in controlled streams onto the surface to be cleaned, the jet holes arranged such that the streams of water are angled inward towards the inside of the cleaning space; the jet holes producing a largely uni-directional stream of water; wherein the jet holes are positioned such that the streams of water from at least one set of hollow members on opposing sides of the cleaning space from each other intersect at a distance X from a bottom of the cleaning head, the distance X being the depth of a carpet pile to be cleaned; and the two opposing streams of water combining to provide a scrubbing action to a carpet to be washed.
