The improved wire wheel brush is of the type having a plurality of bristles extending radially from a hub to a periphery, the bristles defining a brush head. The improvement comprises: a ring of polymeric material through which the bristles extend from the hub, the ring having an outer perimeter smaller in circumference than the periphery of the wire wheel brush such that the bristles protrude therefrom.

A cleaning brush for cleaning containers of complex design, wherein the cleaning brush can reach hard-to-reach areas of the container. The cleaning brush includes a twisted wire and a cleaning head coupled to the twisted wire. Portions of the twisted wire and the cleaning head have bristles. The cleaning head can flex sidewards relative to the twisted wire.

An apparatus and method for using an endoscope pre-cleaning and cleaning device. The device includes an elongated and flexible substrate and an abrasive element running along the length of the substrate. The abrasive element extends in an outward direction from the substrate and can have bristles in a continuous line along the substrate. The bristles can be various lengths, thicknesses, materials, and grouped in various densities along the substrate.

A device for cleaning a top of a beverage can. The device includes a main-body and a cleaning-member. The cleaning-member is saturated with a cleaning composition. The cleaning composition includes an amount of sanitizer or disinfectant such as alcohol, sufficient to at least reduce, if not kill or inactivate, pathogenic matter located on the top of the beverage can.

A brush assembly has a brush holder rotatable about a rotation axis, a ring brush carried on the holder and having an annular array of radially outwardly projecting bristles, and a stop element fixed adjacent the ring brush, of noncircular section. This stop element extends along and is rotatable about a longitudinal axis generally parallel to the rotation axis and projects into the array of bristles.

Devices, systems, and methods for real-time peeling are disclosed. Peeling can include including evaluating and controlling one or more peelers to remove peel from organic materials. Evaluation can be performed by an evaluation system including a convolutional neural network to determine a peel value. Control can be performed by a machine learning model on the basis of the peel value. Control can include determination of real-time settings for peeler tool speed and/or gate position.

A method for wire bristle tuft attachment. The method includes clamping a brush head of a grill brush using a fixture, arranging a plurality of bristles to form a bristle grouping using a terminal, inserting the plurality of bristles in a recess in the brush head, and forming an irregular bend in the terminal by pressing the terminal into the recess by a press machine.

Various grill brushes and corresponding methods of use are disclosed. These grill brushes improve the effectiveness of use compared to existing designs. In certain variations, a wire brush is disclosed that includes a brush wire frame, multiple brush bristles coupled to the brush wire frame, and one or more donut brushes that are mounted on the brush bristles.

A rotary brush configured to isolate vibration during use reducing vibration at a hand-held power tool to which the brush is coupled. The brush has wires arrangeable in tufts extending from a hub sandwiched between two plates assembled to a tool coupling having an isolator therebetween. The isolator and coupling are part of a vibration-isolating assembly having a radial isolator carried by a coupling shaft located between the (i) shaft, and (ii) hub and plates preventing brush vibration from being transmitted to the tool through a coupling end of the shaft mounting the brush to the tool. The isolating assembly preferably includes an axial isolator between (i) each flange and (ii) the hubs and plates. Isolators are made of vibration dampening material and can be formed into a single isolator of one-piece unitary construction. A preferred brush is a cup brush having plates contoured to define wire supporting cups.

A device for cleaning a top of a beverage can. The device includes a main-body and a cleaning-member. The cleaning-member is saturated with a cleaning composition. The cleaning composition includes an amount of sanitizer or disinfectant such as alcohol, sufficient to at least reduce, if not kill or inactivate, pathogenic matter located on the top of the beverage can.
