主权项

1. A steam mop comprising:
a mop head including an housing attached to a support arm; a feed roller disposed within the housing attached at an internal lateral side of the housing; a cleaning pad removably attached to the feed roller; a take up roller for receiving the cleaning pad as it travels along a path orthogonal to a front of the mop head so that an edge of the cleaning pad faces forward relative to the housing wherein the cleaning pad travels from the feed roller to the take up roller so that a used cleaning section of the cleaning pad is transferred to the take up roller and an unused cleaning section of the cleaning pad is fed from the feed roller for contact with a cleaning area whereas the take roller is disposed in the housing attached at an opposite internal lateral side relative to the feed roller; a brush carried by the mop head, disposed adjacent to the take up roller and in contact with the cleaning pad so as to remove debris from the cleaning pad as the cleaning pad is transferred to the take up roller; a dirt collection tray disposed beneath the brush to receive debris removed from the take up roller by the brush; a water reservoir carried by the support arm and in fluid communication with a cleaning reservoir so that cleaning fluid contained in the cleaning reservoir can be mixed with water contained in the water reservoir and delivered to a spray nozzle attached to the mop head and in fluid communication with the water reservoir for spraying that water and cleaner mixture onto a cleaning area; a vacuum assembly carried by the support arm for drawing dirt removed from the cleaning pads by the brushes that is deposited in a dirt collection tray included in the mop head into a dirt storage bin carried by the support arm; and, an ultra violet light carried by the mop head for projecting ultraviolet light.
