A floor cleaning device, in particular a scrub vacuum floor cleaning device, comprising: - a floor unit which is assigned a direction of advance parallel to a floor surface to be cleaned, - a tool (18, 20) which is assigned to the floor unit and which, in an operating state, contacts the floor surface, the tool (18, 20) being movable relative to the floor surface by means of a drive; - a guide member for guiding the floor cleaning device; and - a joint assembly connecting the floor unit and the guide member in an articulate manner; wherein the floor cleaning device is configured to produce an advance effect with respect to the floor surface in the direction of advance, wherein the joint assembly is configured with a first pivot joint having a first pivot range with a defined or virtual first pivot axis and allowing a pivot movement of the guide member relative to the floor unit about the first pivot range, in particular about the first pivot axis, wherein the first pivot axis is in a first pivot axis plane which is perpendicular to the floor surface and contains a direction vector defining the direction of advance, characterized in that in a maneuvering operating state, the guide member can be pivoted about the first pivot axis relative to the floor unit, wherein the guide member can be fixed or temporarily supported in the first pivot axis plane relative to the floor unit or to the floor, wherein, as a result of the pivoting movement of the guide member about the first pivot axis, with the support of the guide member in the pivot axis plane being conveyed, the advance effect brings about a moment of rotation of the floor unit on the floor surface that benefits the maneuvering of the floor cleaning device. - a floor unit which is assigned a direction of advance parallel to a floor surface to be cleaned, - a tool (18, 20) which is assigned to the floor unit and which, in an operating state, contacts the floor surface, the tool (18, 20) being movable relative to the floor surface by means of a drive; - a guide member for guiding the floor cleaning device; and - a joint assembly connecting the floor unit and the guide member in an articulate manner; wherein the floor cleaning device is configured to produce an advance effect with respect to the floor surface in the direction of advance, wherein the joint assembly is configured with a first pivot joint having a first pivot range with a defined or virtual first pivot axis and allowing a pivot movement of the guide member relative to the floor unit about the first pivot range, in particular about the first pivot axis, wherein the first pivot axis is in a first pivot axis plane which is perpendicular to the floor surface and contains a direction vector defining the direction of advance, characterized in that in a maneuvering operating state, the guide member can be pivoted about the first pivot axis relative to the floor unit, wherein the guide member can be fixed or temporarily supported in the first pivot axis plane relative to the floor unit or to the floor, wherein, as a result of the pivoting movement of the guide member about the first pivot axis, with the support of the guide member in the pivot axis plane being conveyed, the advance effect brings about a moment of rotation of the floor unit on the floor surface that benefits the maneuvering of the floor cleaning device. wherein the floor cleaning device is configured to produce an advance effect with respect to the floor surface in the direction of advance, wherein the joint assembly is configured with a first pivot joint having a first pivot range with a defined or virtual first pivot axis and allowing a pivot movement of the guide member relative to the floor unit about the first pivot range, in particular about the first pivot axis, wherein the first pivot axis is in a first pivot axis plane which is perpendicular to the floor surface and contains a direction vector defining the direction of advance, characterized in that in a maneuvering operating state, the guide member can be pivoted about the first pivot axis relative to the floor unit, wherein the guide member can be fixed or temporarily supported in the first pivot axis plane relative to the floor unit or to the floor, wherein, as a result of the pivoting movement of the guide member about the first pivot axis, with the support of the guide member in the pivot axis plane being conveyed, the advance effect brings about a moment of rotation of the floor unit on the floor surface that benefits the maneuvering of the floor cleaning device.
