A cleaning apparatus suitable for wiping and sterilizing bathtubs and showers is presented. The cleaning apparatus contains a pole, a handle, a lanyard, a cleaning head, and a fastening element. The pole contains a first end and a second end. The first end and the second end are terminally positioned opposite to each other along the pole. The handle is connected adjacent to the first end. The cleaning head is connected adjacent to the second end, opposite to the handle through the fastening element. The lanyard is connected to the handle, opposite to the second end.

The present invention relates to an applicator (10) of cosmetic product (P) for keratinous substances, particularly keratinous fibres, notably the eyelashes, the eyebrows, and/or the capillary fibres, comprising: —a core (40) that extends along a longitudinal axis (X), —at least one block (46) of porous material (47), —projecting elements (48) extending from the core (40) and at least partially passing through the porous material (47).

A bath scrubber includes an elongated handle, a scrubbing member, and a tightening member. The handle has a positioning structure at one end thereof, a first side and a second side opposite to the first side. The positioning structure includes a first position-limiting hole and a second position-limiting hole run through the first side and the second side, and a first anti-slip portion located between the first and second position-limiting holes. The first and second position-limiting holes and the first anti-slip portion are arranged on an axis. The tightening member is fastened to the scrubbing member and inserted through the first and second position-limiting holes to fix the scrubbing member on the handle and to make the scrubbing member engage in the first anti-slip portion.

A cosmetic applicator is capable of reliably scooping an appropriate amount of a cosmetic, coming into firm contact with an application area such as a lip, and evenly spreading the cosmetic over the application area. A cosmetic applicator 1 includes a substantially flat application member 3 extending from a tip of a rod-like support member 2 at an angle θ.sub.1 of 0 to 45 degrees with respect to an axial center of the support member, wherein the application member 3 is formed in a spiral shape in a direction in which the application member 3 extends, and a flat surface of a front end portion of the application member 3 is at an angle θ.sub.2 of 10 to 120 degrees with respect to a flat surface of a rear end portion of the application member.

A surface cleaning apparatus can include a housing adapted to move across a surface to be cleaned, an edge brush, and a brushroll driven by a brush motor. The edge brush is connectable with a drive coupling for rotating the edge brush, and is indirectly driven by the brush motor via the brushroll. In one aspect, the edge brush and drive coupling comprise a modular unit removably coupled to the housing. In another aspect, the drive coupling can include a worm and a belt.

An oral care implement including a handle and a head. The oral care implement may be formed entirely out of a resilient or flexible material. The head may include a base structure and a monolithic cleaning unit. The monolithic cleaning unit may include a block portion extending from a front surface of the base structure and a plurality of protuberances extending from a distal end of the block portion. The block portion may have a greater height than the protuberances. The protuberances may include central protuberances that extend from a distal surface of the block portion and peripheral protuberances that surround the block portion and extend from the front surface of the base structure. The monolithic cleaning unit may include ribs extending between adjacently positioned protuberances. The oral care implement may be suitable for babies.

An oral care implement having a head and a handle. A plurality of tooth cleaning elements extend from an exposed front surface of the head. The handle has an open thumb gripping passageway extending between an exposed first surface of the handle and an exposed second surface of the handle opposite the exposed first surface. The handle also has a plurality of slots defining open slot passageways from the exposed first surface of the handle to the exposed second surface of the handle. The open thumb gripping passageway may be defined by a ring component that is fitted into an aperture in a body component. The open thumb gripping passageway may be a void space in the handle. The open slot passageways may be elongated along the handle and may serve to reduce a total amount of virgin material needed to manufacture the oral care implement.

Described herein are electronic dual-head tooth cleaning appliances that facilitates simultaneous front and rear surface cleaning of individual teeth. The tooth cleaning appliances or devices can be rechargeable, portable, lightweight and electronic.

A transverse cleaner head carried from a handle element and having spacer studs on the opposite ends.

An animal grooming and conditioning appliance for rotation by a hand held power drill. The appliance includes a drum secured to a rigid arbor. The drum defines an axis of rotation and has an array of flexible and resilient fingers that extend radially outward from the axis of rotation. The arbor extends coaxially away from a proximal end of the drum. The arbor is configured and arranged for operable engagement to the power drill for rotation of the drum about the axis of rotation.
