The present invention comprises systems and methods for using a specialized styling device, such as a smart hairbrush, smart comb, or accessories, which allow for the collection of data from the devices, and for users to interact over a wireless network. The devices may including a wireless radio frequency modem connected to the internet and a battery to power components, including lights, speakers, cameras, microphones, and sensors. A smart brush may allow for computations through processors, memory, system-on-a-chip, applications, batteries, operating systems, and wired or wireless communication interfaces. It is also possible for the smart brush to connect with other electronic devices, including phones, tablets, and cameras in order to share electrical power and communicate over one or more interfaces. A smart brush may operate as an independent mobile device or within a smart home or other system with multiple computing devices, appliances, and sensors connected together within a network.

A cleaning device is provided that includes a handle, a cleaning implement, a flexible neck, and a collar. The cleaning implement depends from one end the handle. The flexible neck is positioned to allow flexion of the handle. The collar moves with respect to the flexible neck between a first position where movement of the flexible neck is unrestricted by the collar and a second position where movement of the flexible neck is restricted by the collar.

An apparatus for cleaning barbeque grills involves a new and improved barbeque cleaning brush apparatus that has a cover member which houses and protects the brush when not in use. The handle of the cleaning brush is adjustable in length. The cover member is configured to be attached to the side of a barbeque grill.

A tool for cleaning a structure is provided. The tool includes an extension pole having a length, the extension pole including three or more cylindrical segments having different respective diameters, the segments being arranged in a telescoping configuration to permit the length of the extension pole to be adjusted to a desired length; locking nuts structured to releasably lock adjacent ones of the segments to one another; a grip provided on a most proximal one of the segments; and an attachment member provided on a most distal one of the segments, the attachment member being structured to removably attach at least one cleaning accessory.

An ergonomic lateral sweeping device is described. In an embodiment, the device has a sweeping head such as a broom or rake head, and an elongated pole attached to the head. A paddle is rotatably attached to the elongated pole opposite the head, the paddle being wider than the elongated pole. The paddle has a front surface and a rear surface that extend horizontally and vertically so as to provide an area of contact between an arm and a torso. A handle is attached to the pole between the paddle and the sweeping head for rotation about a single axis with respect to the paddle. The handle has a hand grip to receive a rotational force to control a rotational position of the sweeping head with respect to the paddle, wherein the handle and the sweeping head rotate together with respect to the paddle about the single axis.

A cleaning tool including a holding rod and a first tool assembly, wherein the holding rod is curved to form an inner curve and an outer curve. The first tool assembly is rotatably connected to a first end of the holding rod. The first tool assembly includes a first side and a second side which face opposite directions, wherein the first side or the second side is controllably fixed relative to the holding rod to make either the first side or the second side faces a direction to the same as the inner curve. When a high surface of a subject has obstacles, the user could easily clean up the dead corners around the obstacles by using the cleaning tool with curving holding rod provided by the present invention.

The present invention is a snow/ice cleaning tool for removing snow or ice or a combination of such from a vehicle windshield for also rotating the wiper arms to a rest position for cleaning and returning the wiper arms to a working position in contact with the windshield. The cleaning tool has an elongated handle having one or more working ends incorporating snow/ice cleaning devices. Connected to the handle and slanting away from the handle axis is a grasping device with an opening therein for grasping the wiper arms. The present invention allows for the user to lift and lower the wiper arms from either side of the vehicle in a manner that is safe and ergonomic, regardless of the direction in which the wiper arms pivot.

A locking tool extension apparatus and painting tool assembly for preventing threaded tool handles from loosening on an extension pole includes a plurality of painting tools having a threaded female handle aperture. An extension pole has a threaded male pole end coupled to a pole top side. A locking tool extension apparatus comprises a sleeve body having a threaded female receiving. The female receiving aperture selectively receives the threaded male pole end of the extension pole. A threaded male extension end is coupled to the sleeve body. The male extension end is selectively engageable with the threaded female handle aperture of the tool handle. A first spring lock washer is coupled to the sleeve body. The first spring lock washer prevents the tool handle from unintentionally loosening on the male extension end.

A truss brush assembly is provided. The truss brush assembly pivotably and rotatably interconnects an elongated telescoping pole and an arrangement of spaced apart brushes that operatively engage the underside and sides of a beam or other member of a working truss. The interconnection includes a handle mount providing a swivel connection to a channel housing supporting the arrangement of spaced apart brushes.

A cleaning device is provided that includes a handle, a cleaning implement, a flexible neck, and a collar. The cleaning implement depends from one end the handle. The flexible neck is positioned to allow flexion of the handle. The collar moves with respect to the flexible neck between a first position where movement of the flexible neck is unrestricted by the collar and a second position where movement of the flexible neck is restricted by the collar.
