A rotary cutting tool cleaning system, device, and method for cleaning debris and shavings from a rotary cutting tool such as a drill bit or reamer. The system includes at least one roller rotatably mounted in a cartridge, wherein the cartridge includes a rotary cutting tool opening in a top thereof for insertion of the rotary cutting tool into the cartridge. The rollers that remove the debris may be brushed rollers configured for axial rotational engagement with the rotary cutting tool. The system can be non-electric or, alternatively include a power supply that rotate the at least one roller.

A brushing accessory, including a first member, including a hole and a brush fixed thereto, and a second member, including a motor for rotating a first elliptic gear, a second elliptic gear interlaced with the first elliptic gear, and a pin extending from the second elliptic gear into the hole of the first member, thereby moving the brush on a user's body as a function of changing locations of the pin, the locations changing as a function of the interlacing of the elliptic gears.

A double-stringer rotary brush assembly formed of a pair of brush wire mounting hubs having sets of alternating radially staggered radially innermost and outermost brush wire tuft mounting holes having different hole sizes with brush wire tufts extending radially outwardly therefrom having at least one of (a) different lengths, (b) an offset trim, and/or (c) differently sized knots anchoring the tufts thereto. One hub can be angularly offset relative to the other hub angularly offsetting the holes of one hub relative to the other hub from being concentric. The tufts extending from one of the radially innermost and outermost holes are stiffer than the tufts extending from the other one of the radially innermost and outermost holes imparting to the brush assembly tufts having different surface finishing and abrasive removal characteristics.

A system for treating wash waste liquid is described, configured for coupling to a wash module of a continuous Tunnel washing machine for the field of Preclinical Pharmaceutical Research, said wash module (12) comprising a wash chamber (25), characterized in that it comprises: a wash tub (22) with a side wall (31) substantially cylindrical in shape, with a tangential liquid suction outlet (33) and a substantially conical bottom, with a wash waste drain point (35) at the vertex of the cone, said tangential suction being adapted to generate a rotational motion of the liquid in said tub, said tub being positioned under said wash chamber (25), so as to receive said wash liquid by gravity; a centrifugal wash pump (21) with an open impeller, adapted to take in liquid from said tangential liquid suction outlet (33); an in-line filter (26) with an internal filter cartridge of the “wedge-wire” type, adapted to filter the liquid coming from said centrifugal pump (21) and deliver it back, filtered, into said wash chamber (25), and comprising a flush valve (27) for discharging the filtering waste.

A substrate-cleaning apparatus may include a tilting arm to which a roll brush and a motor are coupled, a support arm positioned on the tilting arm, a first spring and a second spring coupling the tilting arm to the support arm, a first air bag and a second air bag mounted between the tilting arm and the support arm, and a controller configured to adjust an internal pressure of each of the first air bag and the second air bag. The controller may adjust a difference in internal pressure between the first air bag and the second air bag to control the inclination of the roll brush, and may adjust the internal pressure of each of the first air bag and the second air bag to move the roll brush vertically.

A brushing system, including: a brush; and a hydraulic motor, for rotating the brush. The hydraulic motor is operable by pressurized water, and the pressurized water is administrable by outlets of the brush, thereby brushing of the brush is accompanied by the administrable water.

A material treatment device intended for use for human or animal hair includes a plurality of rods arranged circumferentially as part of a rod barrel and a handle attached to the rod barrel for rotatable support thereof. A mechanism is provided to rotate the rod barrel in a first direction and a second mechanism is provided to rotate each of the rods separately from the rod barrel in a second direction opposite the first direction. The material being contacted by the rods during use of the hair treatment device rolls away from the contacted rod in the second direction or permitting each of the rods to freely spin during rod barrel rotation. The device can also include bristles that move with respect to the rod barrel or are fixed thereto, the bristles moving with the rod barrel rotation.

A brushroll for a surface cleaning apparatus includes a brush dowel defining a central rotational axis which extends longitudinally through the brush dowel. The brush dowel includes bristle supports, sweeper supports, and a shroud surface extending between the bristle supports and the sweeper supports. A plurality of bristles protrude from the bristle supports.

A paint brush cleaning system includes a housing and a paint brush cleaner attached to the housing. The housing contains solvent that helps clean a paint brush. The paint brush cleaner rotates a wire brush against the bristles of the paint brush and actuates a pump to eject solvent drawn from the housing as the paint brush is moved in translation. The wire brush is coupled to a retractable cord, which rotates the wire brush. A holder is simultaneously coupled to the retractable cord and the pump. When force is exerted on the holder, the retractable cord rotates the wire brush and the pump ejects solvent. A user can insert a paint brush handle through the holder, thus actuating the pump and rotating the wire brush by applying force to the handle. The housing attaches to a user's belt, providing easy access to the paint brush cleaning system.

A cleaner assembly includes a main body having a first end with a handle portion and a second end with a removable cleaner head; a pneumatic motor contained within said main body; an actuator operatively associated with said motor; a rotational shaft operatively associated with said motor and with a rotational cleaner head support; and a cleaner head removably attached to said rotational shaft.
