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 method for controlling display of a user interface for optimizing performance in using a personal care appliance is provided including: receiving a user info or regimen; receiving a protocol or routine to use the appliance; receiving an appliance status related to a user's usage of the appliance; comparing the appliance status to a target usage of the appliance in the protocol or routine; and controlling display of an indicator of the user's performance based on the comparison.

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.

An automated building washing device generally includes one or more rotational brushes having a vertical rotational axis coupled to a window washing swing stage. The brushes are horizontally movable from end-to-end along the longitudinal direction of a window washing swing stage while rotating about their vertical axis so that a relatively large portion of building surface can be quickly cleaned.

A roller assembly for a mobile cleaning system for cleaning a work surface can include a drive shaft, a sheath, a bushing, and a bushing shroud. The drive shaft can be rotatable about a drive axis, and the drive shaft can include a driven end and an opposite bushing end. The sheath can be supported by the drive shaft and the sheath can be rotatable with the drive shaft. The sheath can include a shell engageable with the work surface. The bushing can be located about the bushing end of the drive shaft. The bushing shroud can be connected to the bushing. The sheath and the drive shaft can be together rotatable with respect to the bushing and the bushing shroud, the bushing shroud can include an outer portion defining a first radius of curvature and a recessed portion connected to the outer portion.

A cleaning accessory for a vacuum cleaner comprises a housing. A rotatable cleaning brush is rotatably mounted to the housing. The rotatable cleaning brush has at least one flexible cleaning element projecting outwards from a side of the housing. The at least one flexible cleaning element is configured to rotate and engage with a surface to be cleaned. A rotatable cleaning bar rotatably is mounted within the housing and the rotatable cleaning brush is rotatably coupled to the rotatable cleaning bar. At least a portion of the rotatable cleaning brush is seated within the rotatable cleaning bar or a drive mechanism coupled to the rotatable cleaning bar.

Disclosed is a cleaning unit comprising a variable brush portion. The cleaning unit according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a shaft capable of reciprocating along an axial direction, wherein a first cam protrudes from the outer circumferential surface of the shaft. In addition, the brush portion is arranged on the outer circumferential surface of a body member surrounding the shaft, and the brush portion includes a second cam engaged with the first cam. When the shaft is moved in the axial direction, the first cam pushes the second cam in a radial direction, whereby the brush portion may protrude in the radial direction. That is, as the shaft reciprocates in the axial direction, the length of the brush portion protruding from the outer circumferential surface of the body member may vary.

A toothbrush is provided. The toothbrush may include a brush head having a first brush and a second brush. Each of the first brush and second brush may include bristles extending radially from first ends of the first brush and second brush. The first brush and second brush may rotate in opposite directions along rotational axes parallel to a longitudinal axis of the toothbrush to brush away from the gums of a user and assist with implementing a rolling brushing method.

A handheld cleaning device includes a surface-moving portion and an upright portion. The surface-moving portion is in contact with a surface to be cleaned and is connected with the upright portion. The upright portion is configured to move the surface-moving portion in a case in which the surface-moving portion is in operation. The handheld cleaning device further includes a power battery configured to supply power to the handheld cleaning device. The surface-moving portion further includes at least two non-coaxial brushrolls configured to clean stains on the surface to be cleaned. The rotation speed of each brushroll is less than 3000 r/min.
