A collector used to collect bone includes: a container body defining an interior containment space for receiving and retaining collected bone, and having at least one open end for access and removal of collected bone from the interior containment space; and a cap in covering relation to the open end of the container body such that access to the interior containment space for removal of collected bone is inhibited. The collector includes an intake port defining an opening for receiving therein a distal end of a kerrison rongeur for collecting cut bone from a cutting area thereof, and the cap includes at least one scraper for engaging and dislodging cut bone from the cutting area of a distal end of a kerrison rongeur when received within the intake port. The collector preferably is used with a kerrison-type rongeur for collecting cut bone therefrom.

A bottle brush cleaning implement that uses a crochet scrubber component and an integrated handle and its method of assembly. The preferred embodiment of the crochet component has four brushes that are constructed out of one piece of crochet material that is attached and is held in place with a pronged holder with resistance barbs. The crochet component is additionally held in place by extra yarn that is attached to the bottom of the crochet scrubber and tied to the handle. The preferred embodiment's handle has a grip area with a series of round protrusions to improve handling. The bottle brush may be produced on a wide variety of shapes, colors, sizes and configurations to meet specific needs or individual preferences.

A plastic clip core assembly is disclosed for use in a rotary brush in a carwash. The 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 a 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.

The present invention describes a cleaning device used for cleaning an implant or for the debridement of an implant surface 1 comprising two combined main parts 2, 3, the first main part 2 being a handle shaft 2 which is stiff, plastic deformable or elastic deformable, the second main part 3 being at least one cleaning element 4 comprising a base part 5 and several bristles 6, bristle loops 7 or a cam 8 of spikes 9, wherein the base part 5 is joined together with the handle shaft 2 so as to form a cleaning device 1 with a handle.

A grip cleaning device for cleaning handle grips comprising an outer support housing having a tubular configuration, a mount having securing opening configured to receive a securing device to the outer support housing wall, and a substantially tubular cleaning material fitted inside the outer support housing wherein the handle grip is inserted into the tubular cleaning material and moved therethrough to clean the handle grip.

An application element and an applicator comprising pluralities of said application elements on a molded support is provided for applying a product such as a cosmetic, a medicinal or a care product. At least one application element of the applicator includes a base portion and at least one thin projection. The thin projection includes at least one surface and wherein the at least one outer surface flushes with at least a portion of an outer surface of the base portion.

One or more techniques or systems for cleaning wafers during semiconductor fabrication or an associated brush are provided herein. In some embodiments, the brush includes a brush body and one or more inner hole supports within the brush body. For example, a first inner hole support and a second inner hole support define a first inner hole associated with a first size. For another example, a third inner hole support and a fourth inner hole support define a second inner hole associated with a second size different than the first size. In some embodiments, a cleaning solution is applied to a wafer based on a first flow rate at a first brush position and based on a second flow rate at a second brush position. In this manner, a flow field associated with wafer cleaning is provided, thus enhancing cleaning efficiency, for example.

A surface cleaning implement for use with an elongated handle is provided. The implement includes a largely rectangular and asymmetric body region with rounded outer edges, largely planar upper and lower surfaces, and upstanding contact material coextensively disposed thereon. The body region is a largely flattened structure having a first and second leading edge corner, the corners comprising where the leading edge of the body region transitions to the side edges. The first corner comprises a large, sweeping radius for cleaning curving and open surfaces. The second corner comprises a sharp corner having a small radius, chamfered, protuberant, or largely square corner wherein overly elongated and stiffened contact material extends therefrom for contacting surfaces within corners or within confined areas. The head region includes a back end having a handle receiving sheath and suitable support therefor, wherein an elongated handle is attached thereto for use away from the user's person.
