Brushes for delivering glutinous substance to workpiece from end-effector and methods for making and using the same
11129467 · 2021-09-28 · ·

A method of delivering a glutinous substance to a workpiece from an end-effector comprises using the end-effector to rotate a brush relative to the workpiece about a rotational axis. The method also comprises, while rotating the brush relative to the workpiece about the rotational axis, urging the glutinous substance from the end-effector through a channel of a body of the brush from an axial inlet of the channel to an outlet of the channel, into contact with a thatch of bristles of the brush. Additionally, the method comprises using the end-effector to position the brush relative to the workpiece such that the glutinous substance in contact with the thatch is delivered onto at least a first surface and a third surface of the workpiece.

Hand attachable animal washing apparatus
11096474 · 2021-08-24 ·

A hand attachable animal washing apparatus, attachable upon the hand of a user, enables singlehanded control of waterflow and application of water into the coat of an animal. Control of waterflow though a molded body member is enabled by operation of a compressible portion disposed to control a valve assembly disposed interiorly within the molded body member. A proximal arced edge is disposed projected rearwardly from the molded body member and curved downward to direct waterflow away from a user operating the device, particularly when the device is elevated above a user, as when washing a large animal such as a horse, for example. A user may thereby control and apply water to an animal with one hand while securing and comforting the animal with the other hand.

Surface attachable washing apparatus
11096475 · 2021-08-24 ·

A surface attachable washing apparatus enables easy control of water flow through a molded body member. A valve assembly, disposed interiorly within the body member, is actuated by simple depression of an overlying portion of an obverse surface of the molded body member, to toggle a valve assembly between each of a closed position and an open position. Water flow is therefore controllable by manual pressure to alternately emit and prevent water flow sprayed through each of a plurality of outlets. At least one suction cup enables selective positioning of the molded body member upon a surface distally situated relative to an existing water outlet to which the apparatus is connected. A user may therefore position the apparatus at a desired height in the bath room, for example, to correspond with a child who can then easily control of the water flow during bath time.
