Abstract

A microfiber vacuum mop including a mop suction tube configured to receive a mop suction tube vacuum suction. A suction pad has a plurality of vacuum openings formed on an underside of the suction pad. The plurality of vacuum openings are in fluid communication with the mop suction tube. A microfiber fabric is mounted on the underside of the suction pad. The plurality of vacuum openings suck on the microfiber fabric when the vacuum suction is engaged. The microfiber fabric is dewatered during use. A follower brush is preferably mounted adjacent to the suction pad. The plurality of vacuum openings are arranged in a vacuum opening array that can number over three hundred openings.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A fabric vacuum mop comprising:
 a. a mop suction tube configured to receive a mop suction tube vacuum suction;   b. a suction pad having a plurality of vacuum openings formed on an underside of the suction pad, wherein the plurality of vacuum openings are in fluid communication with the mop suction tube; and   c. a fabric mounted on the underside of the suction pad, wherein the plurality of vacuum openings suck on the fabric when the vacuum suction is engaged, whereby the fabric can be dewatered during use.   
     
     
         2 . The fabric vacuum mop of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of vacuum openings are arranged in a vacuum opening array. 
     
     
         3 . The fabric vacuum mop of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of vacuum openings number over three hundred openings. 
     
     
         4 . The fabric vacuum mop of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of vacuum openings have a round shape. 
     
     
         5 . The fabric vacuum mop of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of vacuum openings are arranged in at least six rows. 
     
     
         6 . The fabric vacuum mop of  claim 1 , further comprising: a follower brush mounted adjacent to the suction pad. 
     
     
         7 . The fabric vacuum mop of  claim 1 , further comprising: a mop suction tube connection pair including a first suction tube connector and a second suction tube connector, wherein the mop suction tube connection pair is connected to the suction pad and in fluid communication with the plurality of vacuum openings, wherein the mop suction tube connection pair is connected to a pair of tubes, namely a left branch and a right branch, wherein the left branch is connected to a T connector, and wherein the right branch is connected to a T connector, wherein the T connector is connected to the mop suction tube. 
     
     
         8 . The fabric vacuum mop of  claim 1 , further comprising: a mop head arm member, wherein the suction pad is mounted to the mop head arm member, wherein the mop head arm member is swivel mounted to rotate between a raised disengaged position and a lowered engaged position. 
     
     
         9 . The fabric vacuum mop of  claim 1 , further comprising: a primary vacuum having a primary vacuum tube and a primary vacuum opening, wherein the primary vacuum tube has a primary vacuum suction of greater force than a mop suction tube vacuum suction. 
     
     
         10 . The fabric vacuum mop of  claim 1 , further comprising: a water spray nozzle configured to spray water when a valve handle is actuated. 
     
     
         11 . A microfiber vacuum mop comprising:
 a. a mop suction tube configured to receive a mop suction tube vacuum suction;   b. a suction pad having a plurality of vacuum openings formed on an underside of the suction pad, wherein the plurality of vacuum openings are in fluid communication with the mop suction tube; and   c. a microfiber fabric sheet mounted on the underside of the suction pad, wherein the plurality of vacuum openings suck on the microfiber fabric sheet when the vacuum suction is engaged, whereby the fabric can be dewatered during use.   
     
     
         12 . The microfiber vacuum mop of  claim 11 , wherein the plurality of vacuum openings are arranged in a vacuum opening array, wherein the plurality of vacuum openings number over three hundred openings. 
     
     
         13 . The microfiber vacuum mop of  claim 11 , wherein the plurality of vacuum openings have a round shape, wherein the plurality of vacuum openings are arranged in at least six rows. 
     
     
         14 . The microfiber vacuum mop of  claim 11 , further comprising: a follower brush mounted adjacent to the suction pad. 
     
     
         15 . The microfiber vacuum mop of  claim 11 , further comprising: a mop suction tube connection pair including a first suction tube connector and a second suction tube connector, wherein the mop suction tube connection pair is connected to the suction pad and in fluid communication with the plurality of vacuum openings, wherein the mop suction tube connection pair is connected to a pair of tubes, namely a left branch and a right branch, wherein the left branch is connected to a T connector, and wherein the right branch is connected to a T connector, wherein the T connector is connected to the mop suction tube. 
     
     
         16 . The microfiber vacuum mop of  claim 11 , further comprising: a mop head arm member, wherein the suction pad is mounted to the mop head arm member, wherein the mop head arm member is swivel mounted to rotate between a raised disengaged position and a lowered engaged position. 
     
     
         17 . The microfiber vacuum mop of  claim 11 , further comprising: a primary vacuum having a primary vacuum tube and a primary vacuum opening, wherein the primary vacuum tube has a primary vacuum suction of greater force than a mop suction tube vacuum suction.
