VEHICLE WASHING SYSTEM AND METHOD
Washing devices comprise an integrally formed brush component including a hub having a central axis and a plurality of bristles. Each bristle includes a shaft extending from the hub and having outwardly extending cleaning structures. The bristles extend radially from the central axis of the hub. A cylindrical support comprises a webbing having an array of holes positioned to receive the bristles of the brush component, each of the bristles being received within and extending outwardly from respective holes in the webbing. Alternate embodiments comprise an integrally-formed, linear brush component including a plurality of connected hub elements, each hub element carrying a bristle. Each bristle includes an elongated shaft having multiple cleaning structures extending outwardly. A webbing comprises an array of holes positioned to receive the bristles of the linear brush component, each of the bristles being received within and extending outwardly from respective holes in the webbing.
PAINT BRUSH CLEANING SYSTEM
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 HEAD FOR A CLEANING APPLIANCE
A cleaner head for a cleaning appliance including a housing having a front side, a rear side, and first and second sides which extend between the front side and the rear side, the housing further including a floor facing surface which extends between the front side, rear side and first and second sides which, in use, faces a surface to be cleaned. A floor engaging device is connected to the floor facing surface of the housing and which extends laterally between the first and second sides of the housing, said floor engaging device including a first portion for absorbing liquid from a surface to be cleaned; and a second portion positioned closer to either a front side or a rear side of the housing, said second portion being relatively stiff compared to the first portion.
Wooden Hairbrush
The wooden hairbrush is an apparatus intended to prevent breaking down of the hair particles or strands of hair when users brush their hair. According to a preferred embodiment, the apparatus is a hairbrush which includes all-wooden components and/or partially wooden components. This is because, wood is not a conduit to electricity and hence using a brush with wooden bristles helps with not breaking down hair properties and damaging hair particles while brushing. For the partially wooden embodiment, only the hairbrush components which are in contact with the scalp and hair are made wooden. Thus, the wooden hairbrush is a simple device that helps in maintaining the integrity of user's hair and improving scalp health while using a hairbrush.
Smart Comb/Smart Brush
A combined all brush all comb tool that can be used interchangeably. Said embodiment having a containment chamber located at the top that can be used to dispense liquid solutions such as shampoos, liquid relaxers and other hair treatment solutions for both male and female hair care treatment.
FINGERPRINT FORENSICS
The invention relates a powder brush, which includes a body having mounting means for mounting a powder cartridge thereon and a brush head assembly attachable to an operative front end of the body. The brush head assembly defines a bristle mounting means capable of retaining a plurality of circumferentially arranged bristles therein. Furthermore, the powder brush includes a powder dispensing arrangement, in use, operable selectively to dispense powder from the powder cartridge onto the plurality of bristles. The dispensing arrangement includes an agitator disposed inside the powder cartridge, which cartridge includes a biasing means operable to bias the agitator towards a closed and open position. The bristles comprise of features, in particular, ostrich feathers of which a stem portion is secured to the brush head assembly.
T- Shaped Brush Head Assembly
A T-shaped brush head assembly for cleaning hard to reach surfaces includes a brush head, which in turn comprises a housing and a plurality of bristles. The bristles are attached to and extend from the housing. A first set of the bristles and a second set of the bristles are positioned proximate to a first end and a second end of the housing, respectively. The first set of the bristles is volumetrically larger than the second set of the bristles so that the brush head is substantially T-shaped. A user can grasp a handle, which is attached to and which extends from the second end of the housing, to manipulate the brush head to clean a surface.
Wire-core applicator having multi-material bristles
A mascara brush having a centre made of at least two wire sections twisted together along a longitudinal axis of the wire core, and having a bristle covering made of plastic bristles formed by filaments, each of which bristles is held in a clamping manner between the two wire sections, and which bristles are formed with a wedge-shaped bristle tip or without a wedge-shaped bristle tip on their free ends. At least one portion of the bristles has a bristle coating made of a first softer material, and a bristle core that is joined to the bristle coating and made of a second harder material, and at least these bristles have a transverse cut, in the form of a simple wedge, on one side or on two sides, at least partially on their radially outward free ends, and comprise a wedge-shaped bristle tip having at least one cut surface forming a wedge.
MASCARA
The objective of the present invention is to provide a mascara that can be easily fine-adjusted during makeup while securing the mascara liquid retention. The mascara according to one aspect of the present invention comprises a first brush extending in one direction and a second brush extending in the other direction. The first brush and the second brush are formed from different materials. A plurality of second strands constituting the second brush are coupled by means of a line seal. The plurality of second strands coupled by means of the line seal are additionally fixed by means of a fixing clip.
CLEANER HEAD FOR A VACUUM CLEANING APPLIANCE
A cleaner head for a vacuum cleaning appliance, the cleaner head including a main body supporting an agitator. The agitator includes a rotatable cylindrical body that bears an elongate agitator formation for engaging a floor surface as the cylindrical body rotates. The elongate agitator formation includes a first agitator row extending around the cylindrical body from a respective first edge L of the cylindrical body towards its centre C in a first helical direction and a second agitator row extending around the cylindrical body from a respective second edge R of the cylindrical body towards its centre C in a second helical direction that is counter to the first helical direction, wherein the first agitator row includes agitators of a first material and wherein the second agitator row includes agitators of a second material that is different to the first material.
