Abstract: The present invention relates to a multi-mode cleaning apparatus with threaded drive shaft and spring-biased locking mechanism comprises an internally threaded portion, a plurality of spring-loaded alignment pegs, and detachable interchangeable functional heads. The functional heads include a flat agitator configured to wash clothes by generating turbulent water flow, a vertical brush configured to scrub shoes, and a perforated bucket configured to centrifugally remove moisture from garments or footwear. During operation, a selected head is threaded onto the central axle and automatically secured by the spring-biased pegs engaging corresponding alignment openings, thereby providing a positive mechanical connection resistant to loosening during operation. Upon activation of the motor, rotational motion is transmitted through the central axle to the selected head to perform the corresponding washing, scrubbing, or drying function. The invention provides a compact, portable, versatile, and space-efficient alternative to multiple dedicated cleaning appliances
