Carpet Cleaning Machines
Peter Vermeeren
With the invention of Carpet, the invention of a Carpet
cleaning machine was not far away. The first hand held Carpet
cleaning machine was designed and tested in the 1860’s in
Chicago, while the first power operated vacuum machine was
invented in the early 1900’s by an English man named H. Cecil
Booth.
At around the same time as H. Cecil Booth’s invention, a man by
the name of James Murray Spangler came up with his own vacuum
cleaner invention, which he later sold to his cousin Hoover. As
you well know, Hoover has become one of the most prominent names
in the vacuum cleaning machine business and is certain one of
the most popular household names in the western world.
The vacuum cleaner was heralded as a blessing in disguise for
many housewives, whose weekly task it was to keep the house
clean. Initially, vacuum cleaners were only capable of sucking
up dust and dirt, but with modern technology inventors were
soon capable of designing a wet-cleaner that can steam carpets
and kill germs.
Carpet was capable of covering the floor of a house, flat, or
bungalow and keeping peoples feet warm in winter. Initially,
people needed to sweep their floors, or carpets, but with the
invention of the vacuum cleaner, people could easily detract
the dirt and dust from their carpets with less effort. It was
also realized that businesses, apartments and corporations
would need someone to clean their carpets too, so the invention
of the commercial carpet cleaners was next.
Essentially, the vacuum cleaner operates using a pump system.
The pumping device sucks up air from a house, which in turn
sucks up the dust and dirt from anything in front of the house
opening. Inside the vacuum cleaner is a filtering system that
collects the dust and dirt that can later be placed in the
garbage outside.
Currently there are seven main types of vacuum cleaners; the
upright vacuum cleaner, the Canister vacuum cleaner, the
back-pack style vacuum cleaner, the built-in vacuum cleaner,
the robotic vacuum cleaner, the hand held vacuum cleaner and
the wet/dry vacuum cleaners. These different types of vacuum
cleaners are available in different styles, sizes and have
various voltage/power potentials.
One of the most significant developments in carpet cleaning
machines has been the invention of the cyclone carpet cleaner.
Unlike previous carpet cleaning machines, the cyclone carpet
cleaner collects dust and dirt in a large cylinder type
container. The cyclone carpet cleaner operates using a central
air force and a number of filters. These filters filter the
dust and dirt into stages, so that the air being sucked up into
the cylinder container can then be cleaned and re-released into
the air through a central outlet.
Robotic vacuum cleaners are also a relatively new invention,
enabling the carpet to be cleaned by a carpet cleaning machine
without the need of people power. Using a simple control
mechanisms, the robotic vacuum cleaner can navigate its way
around the floor of an apartment, or home, cleaning dust and
particles from the floor and then return to its docking station
for re-charging.
