Abstract: A floor cleaning machine constructed as a carriage equipped with a pole and having at least one motor-driven cleaning implement or tool rotating about a vertical axis and for wet cleaning the floor or the like. From a fresh water supply per unit of time there flows-out a regulatable quantity of fresh water to which there is added a cleaning agent, this mixture flowing-out at the region of the cleaning implement or tool. The machine works the floor or the like with the fresh water-cleaning agent mixture by means of the cleaning implement and the thus resulting soiled water is sucked-up from the floor and collected in a separate soiled water container. The fresh water container which supplies the fresh water is formed by part of the machine housing body, whereas the soiled water container is constituted by a separate, portable container which when assuming its working position is enclosed in the machine housing. This soiled water container is connected via a seal to the suction compartment of a suction blower and is protected from over filling by means of an automatically operating level limiting device. Further, means are provided to ensure that the water of the mixture of air and soiled water which enters the machine does not contact the suction blower and also prevent the splashing water of the soiled water container which may splash around during movement of the machine from entering the suction blower.
