A cleaning cloth has a microfiber composite fleece material in which a first and a second fiber component are arranged in the form of alternating layers, wherein at least one first layer A has the first fiber component in the form of composite filaments which are melt-spun and deposited into a fleece and which are at least partially split into elementary filaments having an average titer of less than 0.1 dtex, preferably between 0.03 dtex and 0.06 dtex, and solidified, and wherein at least one layer B is arranged on the first layer A, wherein the layer B has the second fiber component in the form of fibers deposited into a fleece and solidified and having an average titer of 0.1 to 3 dtex, at least one second layer A is arranged on the layer B.

A cleanroom cleaning device includes a multi-compartment container having two or more compartments and one or more breakable seals with at least one compartment containing a cleaning implement and at least another compartment containing a liquid capable of saturating the cleaning implement when the seals are broken. Another cleanroom cleaning device includes a nonbreakable/nonburstable outer pouch, a breakable/burstable inner pouch containing a liquid, and a cleaning implement where the inner pouch containing liquid and the cleaning implement are both contained within the outer pouch.

A system, apparatus, and methods are configured for cleaning and conditioning handrails. A cleaning pad is curved to approximate the shape of a handrail, and is disposed on an arm. The arm may be mounted on a support structure, allowing it to be rolled up to an escalator handrail and left to do the cleaning while the escalator runs. When mounted, the arm may include a spring or piston to keep the arm in a particular position. A second cleaning pad may be included to dry or polish the handrail, the handrail going first through the cleaning pad and second through the drying pad. The arm may be hand-held, allowing a user to reach up or down steps or an incline. The cleaning pad may be mounted such that it rotates about the arm for storage, maintenance or better reach, such as around bends or corners.

A system (10) for cleaning an object (12) includes a roll cleaner (14) having a rotatable elastomeric roll (20) with a cylindrical outer surface configured to contact the first surface of the object (12), a rotatable adhesive roll (22) with a cylindrical outer surface contacting a portion of the outer surface of the elastomeric roll (20), and a support (24). The object (12) passes between the elastomeric roll (20) and the support (24), which contacts a second, opposing object surface. An atmospheric plasma cleaner (16) includes a sealed chamber (32) and at least one electrode (34) disposed in the chamber (32) and receiving a high voltage to generate a plasma applied to the first object surface. At least a portion of an inlet of the plasma cleaner (16) is formed by the elastomeric roll (20) and the support (24), and the contacting of the first and second surfaces of the object (12) by the elastomeric roll (20) and the support (24) seals the inlet of the plasma cleaner (16).

A packet includes a front panel and a back panel defining an internal volume therebetween. The front panel and the back panel include a first edge having a plurality of first recesses formed therein. A nozzle provides a path of fluid communication from the internal volume, through the first edge, to an exterior of the packet. A consumer product is disposed within the internal volume. A cap is configured to prevent the consumer product from flowing from the internal volume, through the nozzle, and to the exterior of the packet.

The disclosed preferred embodiment of the handrail cleaning device comprises a flexible bar which uses spring resilience force to press one or more reusable or disposable cleaning pads against the moving handrail of an escalator. The apparatus provides a lightweight, low cost apparatus that is simple to set-up and use and requires no external power. Additionally, the device is capable of cleaning and treating the handrails of common escalators during operation of the escalator. The device utilizes the motion of the escalator to perform the cleaning action. The simplicity of the device allows for multiple devices to be used simultaneously by a single operator.

Provided is a self-propelled robot that can prevent damage due to dropping of the self-propelled robot and efficiently perform the operation on a flat surface. A self-propelled robot 1 that self-travels on a structure SP having a flat surface SF to perform operation on the flat surface SF of the structure SP, the self-propelled robot includes: a robot main body 2 in which a moving unit 4 for the self-travel is provided; and a controller 30 that controls movement of the robot main body 2. At this point, the controller 30 includes an edge detector 31 that detects an end edge of the flat surface SF, and the controller 30 has a function of controlling activation of the moving unit 4 such that a distance between the end edge of the flat surface SF and the moving unit 4 is maintained to a given extent or more based on a signal from the edge detector 31.

Alkaline sprayable aqueous compositions for cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting are disclosed. In particular, the sprayable compositions include an inverse emulsion polymer for modifying the viscosity of the composition and provide numerous benefits over dispersion polymer compositions used for rheology modification to reduce misting and respiratory inhalation of cleaning compositions. Compositions and methods of cleaning using the compositions having reduced amounts of airborne particulates of the composition during spray applications are provided.

A deployable flag bracelet is provided herein. The deployable flag bracelet includes a medial longitudinal flap member, a first longitudinal flap member, and a deployable flag portion. The medial longitudinal flap member includes a first longitudinal edge and an opposing longitudinal edge where the deployable flag portion is coextensive with the first longitudinal edge and the first longitudinal flap member is coextensive with the opposing longitudinal edge. The deployable flap portion is rollable for storage into contact overlying the medial longitudinal flap member and thereat concealable beneath the first longitudinal flap member. A first transverse edge and an opposing transverse edge of the medial longitudinal flap member further includes a first end flap and a second end flap, respectively, for endwise attachment therebetween to form a bracelet. The bracelet is to be worn about a user's wrist for convenient transport of the deployable flag portion for cleaning optical surfaces.
