Abstract: A cleaning apparatus includes a base and an outer housing with a sidewall that is operably coupled with the base. The sidewall defines an interior of the outer housing and has an outer surface. A recess is formed in the outer surface of the sidewall and is defined at least in part by a recess top wall, a recess bottom wall, and a recess rear wall that extends between the recess top wall and the recess bottom wall. A vent is disposed in the recess and defines at least one port in the recess rear wall that provides fluid communication to the interior. A holder is coupled with the sidewall and has a portion disposed opposite the recess rear wall such that the holder covers a front of the at least one port. The holder is configured to secure a component for the cleaning apparatus with the outer housing.

Abstract: A suction nozzle for use with an extraction cleaner having a suction source includes a tool body and a front cover connected to the tool body. The tool body includes a rear wall. The tool body defines an exhaust port configured to connect to the suction source. The front cover and the rear wall together define an extraction nozzle volume having a suction inlet. The tool body defines a pair of air vents situated above the suction inlet. The front cover has a pair of side walls. In some embodiments, lateral edges of the side walls adjacent to the suction inlet define an arcuate notch for introducing a slipstream into the extraction nozzle volume.
