Abstract:
A cleaning device may include a solution tank configured to store cleaning solution. The device delivers the cleaning solution from a pump discharge of the cleaning device to a flow meter. The device initiates a priming mode by opening a first valve associated with a bypass line of the device, closing a second valve associated with a cleaning head of the cleaning device, and delivering the cleaning solution from a discharge of the flow meter to the inlet of the solution tank through the bypass line. When the device is primed, it initiates cleaning by closing the first valve associated with the bypass line, opening the second valve associated with the cleaning head, and delivering the cleaning solution to the cleaning head.

Claim (Index 1):
A cleaning device comprising:\n a solution tank configured to store cleaning solution; a pump positioned to draw the cleaning solution from the solution tank; a cleaning head positioned to receive the cleaning solution from the pump; a bypass line configured to divert the cleaning solution away from the cleaning head and toward the solution tank; a flow meter configured to measure a flow rate of the cleaning solution when flowing through the cleaning device; and a pump controller that is configured to:\n by operating the pump at a voltage, cause the pump to draw the cleaning solution from the solution tank, \n identify a maximum threshold value and a minimum threshold value, \n if the flow rate measured by the flow meter exceeds the maximum threshold value, decrease the voltage, \n if the flow rate measured by the flow meter is less than the minimum threshold value, increase the voltage, and \n if the flow rate measured by the flow meter neither exceeds the maximum threshold value nor is less than the minimum threshold value, not change the voltage.
