Embodiments of apparatus for reusable drinking straw cleaning include a flexible central brush and a plurality of external brushes supported by a hand-held handle. The flexible central brush is passed into one end of a drinking straw and the drinking straw is drawn down into concentrically disposed external brushes. The drinking straw is withdrawn, reversed and the process is repeated. A handle or central bore provides external brush pressure onto the straw when it has been drawn into contact with the external brushes. After both ends of the reusable drinking straw are cleaned, the reusable drinking straw is withdrawn from the assembly and placed in a sterilizing solution or dishwasher, and dried. The flexible central brush is replaced without disassembly of the apparatus. Embodiments provide a support stand to receive and hold the assembly in a vertical position from the bottom of a wash sink.

A holder for cleaning products is provided. The holder comprising: a body having a plurality of walls defining a recess area, the recess area having a bottom surface, one of the plurality of walls having a drain formed thereon, the drain being in fluid communication with the bottom surface; and an attachment member coupled to a bottom of the body, the attachment member having a cupped shape that is sized to form a perimeter seal when the holder is pressed onto a surface.

An illustrated view of an exemplary straw cleaning system for cleaning and sanitizing a straw as well as for providing a clean container to store the straw. The straw cleaning system has a straw with an expandable area. The straw is placed in a straw holder. The straw holder having a hole in the bottom to drain liquid of the straw. A straw brush is then placed into the straw and cap of the straw brush is coupled to the straw container. The cap fits around an outside of the straw holder to seal the straw in the straw holder. The straw brush has a brush with soft bristles for cleaning residue from inside of the straw.

Rotary devices and methods of use thereof are disclosed. The rotary devices may be configured as cleaning apparatuses. A cleaning apparatus may include an elongated tube member with an attachment end portion, a holding end portion, an internal cavity, and a helical slot. The cleaning apparatus may also include a handle with a following pin, the tube member extending through the handle with the following pin extending through helical slot. The cleaning apparatus may further include a guide element, a stop member, a first resilient biasing element of a first stiffness and a second resilient biasing element of a second stiffness positioned within the internal cavity. Longitudinal translation of the handle along the tube member from the holding end portion to the attachment end portion rotates the tube member about the longitudinal axis and resiliently deforms the first and second resiliently deforms the biasing elements.

A cleaning device includes a main body housing, a cleaning liquid tank, a pressure sensor and a flow controller. By arranging one or more pressure sensor on a gripping portion of the main body housing and movably fitting flow limiters of the flow controller with liquid outlets of the cleaning liquid tank, a control component of the flow controller drives the flow limiter according to a pressure signal transmitted by the pressure sensor, such that the flow limiting area of the flow limiter fitted with the liquid outlet is changed. As such, when gripping the cleaning device, a user can control the outflow of cleaning liquid by the pressure applied to the pressure sensor by hands during gripping, such that the liquid outflow meets the use requirement for each single squeeze. Accordingly, repeated squeezing and pouring can be avoided, and user convenience can be improved.

A brushing sprayer includes a pipe body, a diverter, a control assembly and a brushing head. A pipe body includes an inlet end and an outlet opening communicating with each other. A diverter is positioned in the pipe body, and includes a first flow way, a second flow way and a third flow way communicating with each other and communicating with the inlet end and the outlet end of the pipe body. A control assembly passes through the pipe body, and is connected to the diverter. The control assembly is adapted to plug two selected from the group consisting of the first flow way, the second flow way and the third flow way, whereby a water flow could be regulated by the control assembly to outlet from the first flow way, the second flow way or the third flow way. The brushing head is positioned on the outlet end of the pipe body.
