Claim:
A mat vacuum cleaning machine comprising: a vacuum suction device installed at a rear end of a mat transfer path so as to be parallel to mat transfer rollers, the mat transfer path being defined in a body of the machine for the transfer of a mat that is washed by water, the vacuum suction device including a plurality of suction holes perforated in an upper surface of a neck portion inside a vacuum chamber thereof, the length of the respective suction holes gradually increasing toward one side of the vacuum suction device to apply a uniform vacuum suction force to the washed mat coming into contact with the upper surface, so as to vacuum suction moisture, impurities and bacteria remained in the washed mat while allowing the mat to be smoothly transferred to a mat exit opening of the body; and a vacuum generating device connected to a tubular suction member of the vacuum suction device by use of a hose and adapted to create a vortex of the moisture, impurities, and bacteria introduced through the hose, so as to separate the moisture, impurities and bacteria from vacuum suctioned air and guide the air upward toward one or more vacuum pumps.
