Cleaning device
A cleaning device having a cleaning head assembly and a handle assembly is provided. The assemblies are removably attached to one another by a locking mechanism that includes a female attachment portion having a receptacle and being affixed to a cleaning head, and a male attachment portion having a locking projection and being affixed to a handle and adapted for removable engagement with the female attachment portion. The locking projection on the male attachment portion is biased to engage the receptacle in the female attachment portion so as to releaseably lock the cleaning head and the handle together.
Universal Gutter Guard Cleaning Brush
A brush with bristles attached to multiple sides is designed to clean any gutter guard type that is manufactured today, including reverse curve type gutter guards. The brush has a main body of reverse-oriented bristles and accommodates an extension pole on the reverse side. When placed on top of the gutter guard, the brush can be pushed/pulled back and forth using the pole to dislodge any unwanted debris attached to the gutter guard's working surface. The use of the pole removes the need for a person to be on the roof when attempting to clean the gutter and/or gutter guard. With multiple bristle orientations, the brush cart be used for other outdoor cleaning uses, such as house fixtures, structures, windows and so forth.

Selectively adjustable cleaning device
A multi-purpose cleaning device is provided that can be used with multiple different types of cleaning attachments. The cleaning device includes a handle that is attachable to a socket device that includes several claw members. The claw members have interior portions that are contoured so that the space between the claw members forms a sphere-shaped socket. The cleaning attachments preferably include a ball portion that can be securely mated within the sphere-shaped socket. When the user prefers three degrees of freedom for the attachment, the ball has impeded rotation within the socket. When the user prefers one degree of freedom for the attachment, the ball also includes a rod or post that can releasably lock the ball to the socket.

Log Lifting Device
A log lifting device for raising a log into a cutting position includes a cylinder, a handle, and a wedge. The handle is coupled to and extends from the cylinder equally distant from opposing ends of the cylinder. The wedge is coupled to and extends from the cylinder proximate to the handle. The wedge is substantially perpendicular to the handle. The wedge is configured to be positioned beneath a felled log, positioning a user to grasp and pull on the handle to rotate the cylinder to apply a lifting force to the log so that the log is supported upon the handle above a surface. The log thus is positioned to be safely cut by the user using a chain saw, or other log cutting implement.

Handle for Oral Hygiene Tool
Disclosed herein are embodiments for a handle for securing a patient's mouth in place while an oral procedure is performed. A handle includes a handle head extending from a handle body, the handle head comprising exterior border bumpers to the sides. An indented portion lies in between the border bumpers, the indented portion having grooves oriented substantially perpendicular to a length of the border bumpers. The indented region is configured to receive a patient's teeth and lock the patient's mouth open by preventing the teeth from sliding off the surface of the handle head. With the patient's mouth securely open, a caregiver may then use a second tool (e.g., a toothbrush, flosser, tongue cleaner, etc.) for cleaning the patient's mouth or performing any other oral procedure.
