Flow-Modulating Toothbrush Device and Relative Processes for Conserving Potable Water
A flow-modulating toothbrush device and relative processes for conserving potable water are introduced. It comprises a brush-head member and neck portion, connecting with a body-handle member for maneuvering the device in the process of brushing the teeth. An insertable reservoir facility provides a water source. An ancillary conduction tube facility having alternative means for channeling water directly from a sink faucet into the device. Water in the reservoir facility is pressurized for means of subsequent flows through conduction tube members. A flow activation technique urges the water from the containment facility to the brush-head member. Due to flow modulation, and known, predetermined, water-volume requirements in brushing one's teeth, only a modicum of potable water is withdrawn in the process; this is the minus withdrawal allotment factor of the device. Being generally employed, the device would conserve vast volumes of potable water globally, affecting electrical energy, drought conditions, hydrology, and climate.
Dispensing paintbrush
A dispensing paintbrush includes a handle, a brush head connected to the handle, and bristles attached to the brush head to apply a fluid to a surface. A coupler is attached to the handle and is configured to connect to a fluid source. A nozzle is attached to the coupler and is configured to dispense the fluid to the bristles. The nozzle extends within the bristles and terminates at a position from the brush head that is less than one half the length of the bristles.
FLUID FLOW ACTUATED TOOL
A fluid flow actuated tool including a housing, a tool and an actuating mechanism. The housing includes a housing interior. The housing interior receives a flow of fluid. The actuating mechanism includes a fluid wheel structure. The fluid wheel structure is connected to the tool. At least a portion of the fluid wheel structure is arranged in the flow of fluid for rotating the fluid wheel structure. The tool is actuated based on rotation of the fluid wheel structure.
Cleaning devices
A cleaning device comprises a housing. The cleaning device also comprises a drive gear that rotates about a drive-gear rotational axis. The cleaning device further comprises driven gears, driven by a drive gear and rotatable about corresponding driven-gear rotational axes inside the housing. The cleaning device further comprises brushes, located outside the housing and each rotatable together with a corresponding one of the driven gears. The cleaning device also comprises a vacuum tube, passing through the drive gear. The cleaning device additionally comprises a solvent supply, passing through the housing.
Convenient spot remover for dirty carpet spots
A leg-driven cleaning system embodying cleaning footwear device fluidly connected to cleaning solution is provided. The cleaning footwear includes cleaning bristles along an underside thereof, as well as a nozzle adjacent to the underside for selectively applying the cleaning solution while a wearer of the cleaning footwear device utilizes their leg strength to wipe their feet to scrub their carpet clean. The leg-driven cleaning system does not take up much room, is easy to store, is very cost effective, and anyone from the ages seven to ninety can operate.
Oral cavity washing device
An oral cavity washing device includes: a device body including a pump configured to discharge washing liquid, and a body unit including a tank provided at the device body; a tube connected to the body unit and configured to allow the discharged washing liquid to flow through the tube; and a washing unit connected to the tube and configured to discharge the washing liquid. The body unit has a two-dimensional shape like an ellipse or an approximate ellipse in a planar view.
Toothbrush and oral cleaner with suctioning and cleaning functions
A toothbrush with suctioning and cleaning functions according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a toothbrush rod including a head portion and a handle portion, a brush disposed at the head portion, a through-hole portion formed at the head portion to supply cleaning water to an oral cavity or suction in dirty water from the oral cavity, a guide tube disposed within the toothbrush rod and connected to the through-hole portion to deliver the cleaning water to the through-hole portion or deliver the dirty water suctioned in through the through-hole portion to the outside, and an external main body to supply the cleaning water to the guide tube and to receive the dirty water from the guide tube.
Cleaning Attachment Assembly
A cleaning attachment assembly for a kitchen sprayer and a shower head includes a ring, which has a first end that is configured for insertion of a spray head so that the ring is selectively couplable to the spray head with a second end of the ring extending from the spray head. A cleaning tool is coupled to and extends from the second end of the ring. The cleaning tool is configured for at least one of scrubbing and scraping a soiled article to enhance a degree of cleaning of the soiled article relative to a degree of cleaning of the soiled article achieved solely utilizing water that is sprayed from the spray head.
Method and Apparatus for Cleaning Chimneys
The present invention pertains to a method and apparatus for cleaning soot, creosote, and other materials adhered to the interior walls of a chimney using a mobile cleaning and vacuuming unit. The apparatus is comprised of a pressurized water delivery system, a vacuum system, a chimney cleaning attachment having a plurality of spray nozzles arranged radially about a central axis, and one or more extensions. The required length and corresponding number of extensions are attached to a pressurized water delivery system as needed to access the chimney interior. The chimney cleaning attachment is mechanically affixed to the free end of the extensions and the device is lowered into a chimney. The water delivery system delivers high pressured water to the nozzle abrade the undesirable material within the chimney. A vacuum system positioned near the base of the chimney removes the water and substances that are dislodged during the washing process.
