Abstract

A floor cleaning device with a flexible floor wiping blade secured to a retaining arm or frame of elongated width. The wiper is a semi-rigid, semi-pliable material that is removable and replaceable via a retaining slot in the bottom of a frame. A vacuum cleaner hose or tube is secured to a fitting at the top of the frame, leading to a suction channel in the frame that terminates in a suction opening near the floor, facing toward the operator, or away from the operator, as operation dictates, and near the edge of the left or right side of the arm. The device cleans the floor by dragging a blade across the floor one to a plurality times to create a line of debris, which is subsequently vacuumed up by lining up the suction opening with the debris line and dragging the device the length of the debris line.
