A utensil cleaning wipe includes a main body having a plurality of protrusions that extend upward from the top surface in a spaced apart orientation. A cleaning solution that is specifically formulated for use with metallic utensils is provided along the main body and the protrusions, and functions to clean and sanitize a utensil. Each of the protrusions are aligned parallel to each other and include a shape and size that is complementary to the shape and size of the slots between the tines of a fork. A plurality of scrubbers is positioned along the length of each of the plurality of protrusions. The scrubbers being constructed from a rough abrasive material that is configured to scrub and remove debris from a utensil. When positioned between the tines of a fork, the protrusions and scrubbers act to clean the entire inside surfaces of each tine.

A device for cleaning a handle, includes a handle including a gripping surface to be disinfected, an application member for applying a cleaning liquid to the gripping surface, and cleaning liquid supply including at least one reservoir for receiving cleaning liquid and distributing it to the application member. The application member includes at least one buffer reserve arranged in contact with the gripping surface. The device includes a unit for actuating the application member, including a driver configured to move the buffer reserve and/or the gripping surface relatively with respect to one another so as to apply cleaning liquid to substantially the entire gripping surface during this movement.

An automotive surface is cleaned by applying an effective amount of a cleaning composition comprising a) at least one hydrocarbon solvent in an amount from about 3 weight percent to about 20 weight percent of the composition, b) at least one thickener/rheology modifier in an amount from about 0.01 weight percent to about 3 weight percent, c) at least one silicone fluid has a viscosity ranging from about 500 to about 20,000 centistokes at 25° C., present in an amount from about 0.1 weight percent to about 3 weight percent, d) at least one wetting agent in an amount from about 0.001 to about 2%, e) at least one hydrophobic additive in an amount from about 0.1 to about 3%, and f) water in an amount from about 60 weight percent to about 85 weight percent to the automotive surface with an application implement.

Apparatuses, systems, and methods are disclosed for a cleaning/drying system. An apparatus includes an elongate member that includes a first portion extending linearly along a first axis from a proximal end to a distal end, a second portion extending linearly along a second axis from a proximal end to a distal end, and a joint member configured to couple the proximal end of the first portion and the proximal end of the second portion to one another. The joint member is configured to angle the second portion relative to the first portion such that the first and second axes intersect. The apparatus includes a towel that is selectively coupled to the second portion. The towel is configured for absorbing liquids from a surface in response to the towel being moved across the surface using the elongate member.

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a method for cleaning a wind turbine blade or a solar panel with a wind cinch device. The method includes applying a cleaning solution to a surface of a wind turbine blade or solar panel; affixing a wind cinch device around a high point of the wind turbine blade or solar panel; applying tension to one or more lines attached to the wind cinch device to control the pressure the wind cinch device applies to the surface of the wind turbine blade or solar panel; and applying tension to the one or more lines attached to the wind cinch device to pull the wind cinch device from the high point on the wind turbine blade or solar panel to a low point on the wind turbine blade or solar panel. Other embodiments of the present invention are directed to a Wind Cinch device. The Wind Cinch device includes a main body, the main body being an elongated member having a cleaning surface sufficient in length to form a loop around a wind turbine blade when wrapped around a wind turbine blade. The Wind Cinch device also includes a plurality of rigging points, each rigging point adapted to receive a line. Applying tension to one or more of the lines attached to the rigging points changes the circumference of the loop formed by wrapping the wind cinch device around the wind turbine blade.

A wet wipe that exhibits a novel combination of properties and methods for making such wet wipes are provided.

The technology relates to a system for clearing a sensor cover. The system may comprise a wiper comprising a wiper support, a wiper blade, and a sensor cover. The wiper blade may be configured to clear the sensor cover of debris, and the sensor cover may be configured to house one or more sensors. A wiper motor may rotate the wiper and a sensor motor may rotate the sensor cover. The system wiper blade may comprise a first edge attached to the wiper support and a second edge which may be configured to be in contact with the sensor cover. The wiper blade may extend in a corkscrew shape around the wiper support. The wiper motor may be configured to rotate the wiper in a first direction and the sensor motor may be configured to rotate the sensor cover in a second direction opposite the first direction.

A cleaning tool configured to be inserted into a lithography apparatus in a first configuration, configured to be engaged by a handler of the lithography apparatus, and used for cleaning a portion of the lithography apparatus. The cleaning tool is configured to move from the first configuration to a second, expanded configuration, after engagement by the handler such that the cleaning tool is in the second configuration when used for cleaning the portion of the lithography apparatus. There may also be a container configured to hold the cleaning tool in the first configuration and fit into the lithography apparatus. In that case, the cleaning tool is configured to be inserted into the lithography apparatus in the container, moved from the container by the handler for the cleaning, and returned to the container by the handler after the cleaning.

A pig cleaning and transportation system is disclosed. Exemplary implementations include a platform with a plurality of apertures; a plurality of securing mechanisms, each mechanism within each aperture and configured to hold a pig and allow it to rotate around its longitudinal axis; a base underneath the platform; and a cleaning element connected to the base and positioned on each longitudinal side of the platform in pressure contact with the pigs on the plurality of securing mechanisms, each cleaning element including at least one cleaning material surface.

One or more microfiber sheets (1701,1802,2003,2004) are joined together at a spine (1702) to define a microfiber booklet (1700). The microfiber sheets can join together at the spine by stitching. The microfiber sheets can be manufactured from microfiber textile materials. The microfiber sheets can each be selectively movable about the spine like the pages of a book. The microfiber sheets can include alphanumeric indicia or indicators and graphical illustrations depicting objects to be cleaned by each microfiber sheet.
