A rotary brush for a carwash comprised of a rotational hub, a plastic clip core, a plurality of longitudinal washing elements (“LWE”) and an equal plurality of plastic clips, for retaining the LWE to the plastic clip core. A plastic clip core is comprised of a plastic clip core, a plurality of longitudinal washing elements (“LWE”) and an equal plurality of plastic clips. The plastic clip core assembly is mated to a rotational hub, creating the rotary brush. The plastic clip core has a plurality of semi-cylindrical void cavities, each with an adjoining cylindrical void cavity. Each plastic clip has two parallel members, a first member and a second member. Each LWE has an upper edge, lower edge, free edge, and a cylindrical mount. A first member of a plastic clip fits into the cylindrical mount of the LWE and the semi-cylindrical void cavity. The second member of the plastic clip fits into the cylindrical void cavity, thus securing the LWE to the plastic clip core. The plastic clip core mates with the rotational hub in a no-slip condition.

A pet cleaning glove includes a glove body, a scrubbing arrangement, a water supply arrangement and a cleaning supply arrangement. The glove body, which is made of waterproof material, has at least a finger pocket, a thumb pocket, and a palm pocket, and defines a palmar side and a dorsal side. The scrubbing arrangement is provided at the palmar side of the finger pocket and the palmar side of the thumb pocket only. The water supply arrangement includes an inlet port adapted for connecting to a water source and at least an outlet port formed at the palmar side of the finger pocket for dispensing water from the water source. The cleaning supply arrangement is provided at the palmar side of the palm pocket for receiving a cleaning agent, wherein the glove body is folded at the palm pocket thereof for squeezing out the cleaning agent.

A scrubbing tool for cleaning a surface that has a handle for holding by a user in a cleaning operation. The handle has a first connector. The scrubbing tool also has a cleaning head having a second connector configured to mate with the first connector in order to attach the cleaning head to the handle in an engaged position. The cleaning head is comprised entirely of a material configured to dissolve in water and has a cleaning agent.

A bath scrubber includes an elongated handle, a scrubbing member, and a tightening member. The handle has a positioning structure at one end thereof, a first side and a second side opposite to the first side. The positioning structure includes a first position-limiting hole and a second position-limiting hole run through the first side and the second side, and a first anti-slip portion located between the first and second position-limiting holes. The first and second position-limiting holes and the first anti-slip portion are arranged on an axis. The tightening member is fastened to the scrubbing member and inserted through the first and second position-limiting holes to fix the scrubbing member on the handle and to make the scrubbing member engage in the first anti-slip portion.

A method of forming an oral care implement, a method of forming a head plate for an oral care implement, and an oral care implement or head plate formed therefrom. The head plate may have micro-sized or fine features. The method may include providing an amount of a first solid material upstream of a first mold cavity; prior to the first solid material entering the first mold cavity, applying ultrasonic energy to the first solid material to melt the first solid material into a first molten material; flowing the first molten material into the first mold cavity; allowing the first molten material to harden within the first mold cavity to form a head plate comprising micro-sized features; forming a body from a second material, the body including a handle portion and a head portion; and coupling the head plate to the head portion of the body.

A toothbrush having a cleaning column is provided. The toothbrush includes a handle portion, a neck portion, and a head portion. The cleaning column is attached to the head portion and extends away from an upper surface of the head portion. The cleaning column includes a cleaning surface for contacting a user's teeth. In one preferred embodiment, the cleaning surface can be made of foam that is formed via a reticulation process that exposes connected skeletal strands and the broken skeletal strands each having at least one free end of the foam. The connected skeletal strands and the broken skeletal strands of foam can facilitate the cleaning of the user's teeth, and the areas of the foam between the connected skeletal strands and the broken skeletal strands can facilitate holding of dentifrice therein.

A plastic clip core is disclosed for use in a rotary brush in a carwash. The plastic clip core is used in conjunction with a rotational hub, a plurality of plastic clips, and an equal plurality of longitudinal washing elements (“LWE”). The plastic clip core has a plurality of semi-cylindrical void cavities, each with an adjoining cylindrical void cavity. Each plastic clip has two parallel members, a first member and a second member. Each LWE has an upper edge, lower edge, free edge, and a cylindrical mount. A first member of a plastic clip fits into the cylindrical mount of the LWE and the semi-cylindrical void cavity. The second member of the plastic clip fits into the cylindrical void cavity, thus securing the LWE to the plastic clip core. The plastic clip core mates with the rotational hub in a no-slip condition.

An improved toothbrush structure includes a handle with a toothbrush head disposed at an upper end of the handle. A groove is formed on a side of the toothbrush head and the groove is provided with a cleaning device, and a glue for fixing and adhering the groove of the toothbrush head and the cleaning device with each other, and the cleaning device includes but not limited to a sponge cleaning device, a non-woven fiber cleaning device, a nylon fiber cleaning device, a plant fiber cleaning device, a functional fabric cleaning device or a plastic cleaning device. The cleaning device has an end surface in a shape including but not limited to a flat shape or a wavy shape.

A vacuum cleaner is disclosed. The vacuum cleaner comprises: a suction nozzle including a rotating cleaner located in front of a suction port; a cleaning main body provided with a first motor that generates a suction force; and a distance sensor coupled to the suction nozzle. The distance sensor detects a distance from a wall surface located in front of the suction nozzle, and when the distance (distance value) is less than or equal to a reference value, the rotation speed of the first motor is increased. Accordingly, when the suction nozzle touches the wall surface and cannot move forward, the suction force is momentarily increased such that foreign substances such as dust can be effectively sucked in from the edge of the wall surface, and effective use of a battery can be achieved.
