An animal care or cleaning device has a brush (2) mounted on a brush shaft (16), drivable by an electric motor drive (36) to rotate the brush (2). The brush shaft is rotatably mounted in a bearing (14) provided on a support (4, 6), and has an actuator by which the drive (36) can be actuated as a function of contact of the brush (2) with an animal body. The bearing (14) has at least one shaft bearing (14) that holds the axis of rotation of the brush (2) in a fixed positional relationship to the support (4, 6). The drive (36) is driven by torque acting on the brush shaft (16) in one or other direction of rotation, caused by an impact motion of the animal body on the brush (2), and is carried along at most to a predeterminable dead stop on the support (4, 6). The drive triggers the actuator (42) for actuating the drive (36) during this motion.

A skin cleaner includes a case configured to form an accommodation space therein; a bracket configured to be accommodated in the accommodation space; a rotor configured to be rotatably disposed on the bracket; a rotation mechanism configured to be accommodated in the accommodation space and to rotate the rotor; an ultrasonic head configured to be disposed on the bracket and having a built-in ultrasonic vibrator therein; a vibration motor configured to be accommodated in the accommodation space and to vibrate the bracket; a plurality of brush units having magnets disposed on a surface facing the case and configured to be selectively disposed on the rotor; and a sensor configured to be accommodated in the accommodation space and to detect the magnet.

An autonomous cleaning robot includes a drive system to move the autonomous cleaning robot about a floor surface, a cleaning head on a bottom portion of the autonomous cleaning robot, a side brush on the bottom portion of the autonomous cleaning robot, and a vacuum system in pneumatic communication with the opening. The cleaning head is configured to direct debris from the floor surface into the autonomous cleaning robot as the autonomous cleaning robot moves about the floor surface. The side brush is rotatable about a rotational axis forming a non-zero angle with a floor surface, and the side brush comprising an opening.

A brush head including a central portion centered respective to a rotation axis, an attachment feature configured to secure the brush head for rotation about the rotation axis, and a plurality of lobes. The plurality of lobes extend radially outwardly from the central portion and the rotation axis. At least one lobe extends along a curvilinear path, the curvilinear path extending through the central portion. The lobe has varying widths along the curvilinear path, the varying widths being perpendicular to the curvilinear path.

An industrial robotic vacuum system for cleaning agricultural facility ventilation ductwork. The industrial robotic vacuum system generally includes a robotic vacuum head.

A fluid dispensing scrubber includes a shaft having a first end and a second end; a fluid inlet configured to receive a first fluid from an external source; a reservoir configured to store a second fluid; a valve assembly configured to selectively mix the first fluid and the second fluid; a scrubbing head supported adjacent the first end of the shaft, the scrubbing head including a brush and a motor operable to rotate the brush; a battery pack supported adjacent the second end, the battery pack operable to provide power to the motor; and a dispensing nozzle configured to selectively dispense one or both of the first fluid and the second fluid, the nozzle supported on an exterior surface of the scrubbing head.

A rotary wire brush, such as a wheel brush, e.g., double-stringer or dually brush, cup brush, bevel brush, or knotted end brush, composed of knotted brush wire tufts of multistrand construction each having at least a plurality of brush wire strands, preferably at least a plurality of pairs of, i.e., at least three, strands each formed of at least a plurality, preferably at least a plurality of pairs of, i.e., at least three, wires. The wires forming strands are twisted, braided, or twisted and braided, and the strands that form tufts are twisted, braided, or twisted and braided. A preferred brush employs a center disc, e.g., hub, with radially offset tuft anchor holes, which can have different sizes, from which twist knot tufts, which also can have different sizes, can outwardly extend from the disc different distances by being configured with an offset trim preferably having different trim lengths.

A customizable cleaning brush, including a main body, a plurality of head members removably connected to at least a portion of the main body to brush, scrub, and massage a body of a user, a plurality of operation controls disposed on at least a portion of a first side of the main body to perform at least one of a rotation, oscillation, and vibration of the plurality of head members, and a plurality of pressure controls disposed on at least a portion of a second side of the main body to perform at least one of a speed control and a pressure control of the plurality of head members.

A segment for detachably arranging on a carrier, which can be rotatably mounted relative to an axis of rotation, for forming a disc brush or for forming a cleaning, grinding or polishing disc, includes a segment body, wherein multiple bristles protrude from the underside thereof or an abrasive grit and/or a fiber structure is arranged on the underside thereof, wherein the segment body has a segment guide extending in the radial direction in relation to the axis of rotation of the carrier on a radially internal edge and spaced apart from an external—in relation to a circumferential direction—lateral edge of the segment body, which segment guide is designed to cooperate with a corresponding carrier guide formed or arranged on the carrier for arranging the segment on the carrier.

An interchangeable-tool machine interface for a cleaning brush, includes a drive interface and output interface that are separable and connectable without tools and are separable or connectable in several discrete angular positions by axial displacement along a common axis of rotation. The output interface has centering walls and resiliently displaceable latching-means walls, the centering walls and the resiliently displaceable latching means walls are arranged so as to be angularly offset from one another in the circumferential direction about the axis of rotation. The drive interface has centering and mating latching-means walls that are arranged so as to be angularly offset from one another in the circumferential direction about the axis of rotation and, per wall, are designed to correspond both to the centering walls and to the latching means walls of the output interface.
