Abstract:
A wiper system for flat or nearly flat surfaces utilizing a track system whereby a substantially vertical blade is disposed across a primarily planar surface to remove obstructing matter in a non stop horizontal reciprocation that may be set to do so in a plurality of differentiating track configurations. Additionally the present invention may be utilized and best suited for windshields, residential windows, metal paneling or headlights.
Abstract:
A toilet plunger cleaning system wherein a toilet plunger is provided having a handle with an inner chamber and a plunger head. The handle chamber has a reciprocating cylinder filled with a cleaning fluid. A plurality of circumferentially spaced normally closed holes are provided in the handle communicating with holes in the cylinder. A lever on the exterior of the handle is activated to align the holes in the cylinder with the holes in the handle to release fluid about the lower portion of the handle and the plunger head to clean and/or sanitize the same.
Abstract:
A paint edging apparatus includes a body having front and rear ends defining a longitudinal axis therebetween, the body receiving a paint reservoir for supplying paint to an applicator portion of the apparatus, the body including a handle extending rearwardly at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis. An urging mechanism selectively engages the paint reservoir to discharge paint therefrom. A vibrator mounted to the body and operatively connected to the paint applicator portion of the apparatus imparts an oscillatory motion to the paint applicator. A trigger is pivotally mounted to the handle for activating the vibrator, wherein a user can move the apparatus over a work surface to apply paint to the work surface and also pivot the trigger at the same time by grasping the handle with a single hand.
Abstract:
A brush, or mop, or like tool (1) has a handle (5) and a head (7). The handle (5) is able to carry a liquid that can be dispensed therefrom during use of the tool (1). The handle (5) has a liquid dispensing passage (51) through which the liquid can pass to an outlet (17). The passage (51) has a valve (19) to control the passage of the liquid and the valve (19) has a sliding gate part (65) and a stationary gate part (49). The sliding gate part (65) can be positionable to block the flow of liquid in one position, and to permit the flow of liquid in another position. The sliding gate part (65) effects a sliding wiping cleaning of the valve (19), and therefore minimize clogging of the valve (19).
Abstract:
An assembly structured to clean the head portion of a stethoscope comprising a housing including a path of travel along which the head portion passes during cleaning. A supply of cleaning fluid is associated with a dispenser assembly which is cooperatively disposed relative to an activating assembly. The activating assembly is manually operated due to moveable engagement with the head portion as it travels along the path of travel. The activating assembly is thereby operatively positioned to activate the dispenser assembly when engaged by the head portion as it passes along the path of travel. The dispenser assembly delivers the cleaning fluid to an applicator assembly which distributes the cleaning fluid to the head portion and facilitates the cleaning thereof and removal of excess cleaning fluid there from.
Abstract:
A cleaning device includes a support shaft; a retaining plate connected to a distal end of the support shaft by pivot elements; a cleaning pad detachably secured to a lower surface of the retaining plate; a fluid reservoir attached to the support shaft; and a flat jet spray assembly secured upon the upper surface of the retaining plate within its perimeter. The flat jet spray assembly includes a spray head having a securing flange with an inclined base at the rear portion; and a front portion having a slot-shaped spray jet outlet being open at side edges and a channel around a center of, and in perpendicular to, the slot-shaped spray jet outlet; a spray nozzle disposed within the channel, which has a horizontal emission slit; and a fluid feed tubing connected between the fluid reservoir and the spray nozzle.
Abstract:
A defect marking device includes a flaw inspection device which has a plurality of light-receiving parts that identify reflected lights coming from an inspection plane of a metal strip under two or more of optical conditions different from each other; a signal processing section that judges the presence/absence of surface flaw on the inspection plane based on a combination of reflected light components identified under these optical conditions different from each other; and a marking device which applies marking that indicates information relating to the flaw on the surface of the metal strip.
Abstract:
A cleaning apparatus providing a user with the ability to perform two cleaning functions with the same apparatus is disclosed. According to one aspect of the present disclosure the cleaning apparatus includes an elongated body portion having first and second ends, a first tip integral with the first operative end, the first tip including a first solution for performing a first cleaning function on the electronic equipment, and a second tip integral with the second operative end, the second tip including a second solution to the second operative end for performing a second cleaning function on the electronic equipment.
Abstract:
An apparatus for applying a fluid, such as paint, to a surface. The apparatus includes an adjustable spray nozzle which can be adjusted both in position and in direction, allowing the fluid to be sprayed either onto a roller or directly onto another surface or both.
Abstract:
A device for packaging and applying a substance may include a receptacle including a body defining a first space and an opening. The first space may be configured to receive a supply of the substance. The receptacle may include a second space and a partition. The partition may have at least one orifice formed therein configured to provide flow communication between the first space and the second space. The device may include a first closure member configured to close the opening of the body, the first closure member being mounted on the body, an applicator at least partially disposed in the second space, and a second closure member configured to be removably mounted on the receptacle such that the second space is closed except for the orifice in the partition.
