An upright liquid filtration vacuum cleaner, comprising:
- a housing;
- a liquid tank that is removably insertable in to the housing and further comprises:
- an interior volume;
- an inlet placing the interior volume in fluid communication with an intake tube;
- a outlet placing the interior volume in fluid communication with a motor assembly;
- a basin intake channel within the internal volume, the basin intake channel having a first end in fluid communication with the tank inlet port and a second end below a liquid level of a liquid contained in the internal volume, wherein the tank inlet port is above the liquid level and the first end of the basin intake channel is in fluid communication with the second end;
- and,
- a tank inlet port seal having a biasing mechanism, the tank inlet port seal configured to close the tank inlet port under the force of the biasing mechanism and open the tank inlet port when the force of the biasing mechanism is overcome,
- wherein the intake tube forms an airflow path from an exterior of the housing to the tank inlet port when the liquid tank is inserted in to the housing;
- and,
- a separator is connected to the motor and extends from the motor, through the tank outlet, in to the interior volume when the liquid tank is inserted in to the housing.
