AIR/LIQUID SEPARATION SYSTEM FOR AN EXTRACTION CLEANER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240023782 titled 'AIR/LIQUID SEPARATION SYSTEM FOR AN EXTRACTION CLEANER

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an air/liquid separation system for an extraction cleaner. The system includes a recovery tank assembly with a recovery tank, an inlet stack for receiving the working air stream with extracted liquid and debris, an outlet stack for expelling separated air, and a lid assembly. A float is positioned next to the curved exterior side wall of the recovery tank, and the inlet stack and outlet stack are arranged side-by-side in a tank chamber with the outlet stack between the float and the inlet stack. The bottom of the lid assembly forms an open bottom cavity within the tank chamber, above the outlet of the inlet stack. The lower surface of the lid assembly slopes upward and outward from above the outlet of the inlet stack to the outermost side wall of the lid assembly.

  • The system is designed to separate air and liquid in an extraction cleaner.
  • The recovery tank assembly includes a recovery tank, inlet stack, outlet stack, and lid assembly.
  • A float is positioned next to the curved side wall of the recovery tank.
  • The inlet stack and outlet stack are arranged side-by-side in a tank chamber.
  • The lid assembly has a sloping lower surface that directs separated air towards the outermost side wall.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Extraction cleaners used in industries such as carpet cleaning, upholstery cleaning, and floor cleaning.
  • Industrial cleaning equipment that requires efficient air/liquid separation.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient separation of air and liquid in extraction cleaners.
  • Prevention of liquid and debris from entering the outlet stack.
  • Improved performance and functionality of extraction cleaners.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced cleaning efficiency and effectiveness.
  • Reduced maintenance and cleaning of extraction cleaner components.
  • Improved durability and lifespan of extraction cleaner systems.


Original Abstract Submitted

an air/liquid separation system for an extraction cleaner has a recovery tank assembly that includes a recovery tank, an inlet stack for receiving the working air stream with extracted liquid and debris entrained therein, an outlet stack for expelling air separated from the working air stream, and a lid assembly. a float is disposed adjacent to a curvilinear exterior side wall of a recovery tank, and the inlet stack and outlet stack are disposed transversely side-by-side in a tank chamber with the outlet stack between the float and the inlet stack. a bottom of the lid assembly defines an open bottom cavity within the tank chamber and above an outlet of the inlet stack. a lower surface of the lid assembly at the open bottom cavity inclines upward and outward from above the outlet of the inlet stack to an outermost side wall of the lid assembly.
