The opening of the brush roller opening has at least one side surface, a bottom surface, a width, a depth and a borehole positioned at the bottom surface of the opening. A magnet having an opening is positioned within the brush roller opening and a connector is received within the magnet opening to fasten the magnet to the brush roller. The position of the magnet inserted within the brush roller opening is adjustable through various means disclosed herein.

The in-water boat-washing system is an automated system for washing a boat while said boat remains in a body of water. The in-water boat-washing system is configured to receive a boat, and propel said boat through a series of brushes that clean the hull of the boat while said boat remains in a body of water. The series of brushes are further defined with a plurality of bottom brushes, a plurality of left side brushes and a plurality of right side brushes. The in-water boat-washing system includes a plurality of rollers that are configured to rotate in order to propel the boat across the series of brushes. The in-water boat-washing system includes a frame that supports all of the componentry required. A control panel is included and automates all of the series of brushes as well as the plurality of rollers.

A garbage disposal cleaning system includes a garbage disposal that may be fluidly coupled to a drain on a sink. A scrubbing unit is removably positioned within the garbage disposal. The scrubbing unit frictionally engages the garbage disposal. The scrubbing unit contains and releases a detergent. The scrubbing unit cleans the garbage disposal when the garbage disposal is turned on. Thus, the scrubbing unit may reduce an odor relating to bacterial decay in the garbage disposal.

The present invention relates to a method for removing a coating from a defined area of a high pressure turbine part comprising the steps of: securing a guide to said turbine part, said guide both exposing said defined area while protecting adjacent areas; repeatedly inserting and withdrawing a brush through an opening in said guide which directs said brush to impinge said defined area and remove said coating. The invention also relates to a guide used in the aforementioned method.

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.

The present invention provides a cleaning unit, comprising: a columnar body part having a rotation guide opening formed on the outer circumferential surface thereof; a shaft installed to reciprocate a predetermined distance in the longitudinal direction thereof in a hollow formed in the body part; a drive part that protrudes from the shaft in the radial direction thereof; a brush part that has one side installed on the outer circumferential surface of the body part along the longitudinal direction thereof and rotates on the basis of the one side as a rotation axis; and a driven part that extends from the brush part toward the drive part, passes through the rotation guide opening, and is inserted into a rotation guide groove formed in the drive part. The rotation guide groove extends at a predetermined angle with respect to the longitudinal direction of the shaft, and as the shaft reciprocates, the driven part is guided to rotate by means of the rotation guide groove, and the brush is rotated by means of the rotation of the driven part. The cleaning unit may include a robot cleaner or a cleaner operated by means of a user's operation.

A cleaning brush assembly includes a housing, a cylindrical brush received in the housing, and a fixing member for fixing the cylindrical brush in the housing. By providing the above structure, the cleaning brush assembly can rapidly clean rusts on a battery cathode terminal, a battery anode terminal, or a bolt on a vehicle wheel disc while permitting easy replacement of the cylindrical brush.

The present invention relates to a body care system (100a-j) including a cooling device (10a-j) for a body care system (100a-j) comprising a brush unit (12) including a plurality of airflow generating structures, a connecting unit (16) for connecting the brush unit (12) to a driving unit (14), the driving unit (14) being configured to drive the brush unit (12) to rotate about a rotational axis (18) to generate an airflow by the rotation of the airflow generating structures, wherein the rotational axis (18) is substantially parallel to the surface of the body part, and a supplying unit arranged inside the brush unit (12) for supplying a cooling medium to the plurality of airflow generating structures of the brush unit (12) to evaporate the cooling medium by the generated airflow.

Disclosed is a vacuum cleaner. The vacuum cleaner includes a suction nozzle housing, an agitator provided within the suction nozzle housing, and a suction channel guiding air sucked into the suction nozzle housing to a dust collector, the agitator includes a body rotatably installed in the suction nozzle housing, brush members disposed on the body in parallel with the center of rotation of the body and combined with the body so as to be fixed, and auxiliary members disposed on the body in parallel with the center of rotation of the body and combined with the body so as to be movable when the body is rotated, and a protrusion overlapping with parts of the brush members and contacting the brush members when the body is rotated is provided in the suction channel.
