A paint roller is provided having a substantially linear profile and form factor facilitating access to spaces that would be difficult or impossible to paint using traditional paint rollers. A container is provided for use with the paint roller. A set comprising a paint roller having a substantially linear profile and container configured to accept the paint roller is provided.

A multi-head wraparound tool including three working heads includes an elongate handle section, an upper section at one end of the handle including two arms extending away from the upper section in a substantially U shape, a central working head receiving means mounted directly above the upper section between the two arms, two peripheral working head receiving means attached to each arm by a spring loaded hinge; and an actuator mechanism for manipulating the position of the peripheral working heads. The peripheral working head receiving means are spring biased inwardly so that the peripheral working heads form a substantially planar closed triangular configuration with the central working head, with the three working heads wrapped around the item to be cleaned and/or painted.

A paint roller includes a paint roller handle coupled to a proximal end of a paint roller frame and a paint applicator positioned on a distal end of the paint roller frame. The paint roller handle includes a first contact member positioned on a distal end of at least one distal frame member, a second contact member positioned on a proximal end of the at least one distal frame member, and a third contact member positioned on a proximal end of at least one proximal frame member. The proximal end of the at least one distal frame member is positioned on a distal end of the at least one proximal frame member.

The paint roller drill attachment is a device that enables a paint roller to be secured thereon. Moreover, the paint roller drill attachment includes a hexagonal drill bit that is adapted to be secured to a drill chuck of a drill in order to rotate both the paint roller drill attachment as well as the paint roller. Moreover, high-speed rotation of the paint roller drill attachment via the drill enables wet paint to be spun off of the paint roller. The paint roller drill attachment includes a paint roller portion that is affixed to the hexagonal drill bit. The paint roller portion includes a plurality of rib members that span between a first member and a second member.

Hand tools having a hand guard for protecting a user's working hand are provided. In one embodiment, the hand tool may be a hand rake that includes a rake body having a proximal end and an opposite distal end and including a handle portion and a rake portion. The handle portion may extend from the proximal end of the rake body and include a finger opening configured to receive a user's fingers therethrough. The rake portion may extend from the distal end of the rake body to the handle portion and include a plurality of tines. A hand guard may be attached to the rake body and positioned over a top surface of the handle portion and may include a plurality of walls defining an interior space configured to receive the user's hand therein. In other embodiments, the hand tool may be a grabber or a paint roller.

The disclosure herein relates to a tool for applying a corrosion-protection substance to a rail for securing seats in an aircraft. The tool comprises a component of elongate overall shape comprising a base configured to slide along the rail, and a rollers support connected to the base and comprising an axle forming a rollers support, The axle extends transversally with respect to the longitudinal direction of the component, on each side thereof, and a plurality of rollers for applying the substance being mounted on the transverse axle, one on each side of the component. The tool allows the substance to be applied effectively to the flange parts of the rail that is to be protected.

A paint roller retention and release assembly includes a cylinder has a first end and a second end. A perimeter wall extends between the first and second ends. A handle is attached to the first end of the cylinder such that the cylinder is rotatable with respect to the handle. A plurality of couplers is mounted in the perimeter wall. The couplers are each movable from a deployed position extending outwardly of the perimeter wall to a stored position is substantially flush with the perimeter wall. A roller brush is formed in a sleeve that is removably positioned on the cylinder. The couplers each have an outer surface that frictionally engages an interior of the roller brush when the couplers are in the deployed position.

Apparatus for applying rub-on and roll-on topical products such as medications, pain relievers, deodorants, cosmetics, and any other product having a built in applicator to the user's skin surface in hard-to-reach locations without undo strain or injury. The apparatus comprises a chamber assembly and an elongated handle. The chamber assembly comprises a rounded hollow T-shaped body having a protrusion on one side with a threaded inner surface to receive the elongated handle. The elongated handle has a threaded end that is deeper than the protrusion of the chamber assembly. When a container is placed into the chamber assembly from the top section and the elongated handle is hand-tightened, the threaded end comes in contact with the container and holds it securely in place, allowing the user to apply rub-on and roll-on medications and other products to hard-to-reach places of the body without undo strain or injury.

This cleaning tool has a shape that includes an angle, a flat bottom surface and rounded front protuberances, and can be attached to any pole, either directly at the cleaning tool's receiving opening, or using the provided adaptor between the cleaning tool and pole. The cleaning tool is covered with a washable and removable microfiber sock, or a sanding or scrubbing pad is attached to hook material on the flat side of the tool. When the cleaning tool is attached to the opposite end of a painter's pole from the paint roller, a painter can seamlessly paint and clean errant drips without switching tools, by reversing the assembly.

This device is comprised of a washer with one or two hooks on either side of the washer. The washer may also have serrated surfaces to prevent an extension pole and a handle of a paint roller frame from untightening during normal painting operation. The hook(s) allow the paint roller and extension pole to be hung on the lip of a paint bucket or other container so that the roller does not dry out during the painting operation.
