A method for manufacturing a structure on a surface of a workpiece (1) is disclosed, the method having the following steps: applying a liquid base layer (2) onto the surface of the workpiece (1); spraying on at least one droplet (3) into the not yet congealed base layer (2), wherein the at least one droplet (3) at least partially, preferably completely, penetrates into the base layer (2); fixing the base layer (2); and at least partially removing the at least one droplet (3). Further, a second method having the following steps is disclosed: spraying on at least one droplet (3) onto the surface of the workpiece (1); applying a liquid base layer (2) onto the surface of the workpiece (1), wherein the base layer (2) flows around the at least one droplet (3) and preferably at least partially covers the at least one droplet (3); fixing the base layer (2); at least partially removing the at least one droplet (3). Finally, a device for performing the methods is disclosed.

An endoscope-cleaning device ensures effective cleaning of an endoscope. The endoscope-cleaning device includes a long flexible core member inserted into a twisted tubular body including a weft yarn including a microfiber yarn, wherein the microfiber yarn is made of polyester and the tubular body is twisted at 5 twists/5 cm to 15 twists/5 cm.

A brush-like device that adapts to tangles in hair and allows for easy removal of hair post-groom using uniquely shaped, anisotropic papillae not unlike those found on a feline tongue.

A brush belt including a base member having first side with a traction surface and a second side that is opposite the first side, the first side having a mounting surface having a longitudinal axis, a first edge, second edge, and a plurality of projections extending from the mounting surface between the first edge and the second edge, the first edge and second edge of the mounting surface being parallel to the longitudinal axis, and a plurality of bristle clusters coupled to the base member, each bristle cluster of the plurality of bristle clusters having a plurality of bristles and being positioned between two projections.

A mini-brush for use in cleaning and clearing obstacles from within a carryover tube in a furnace. The brush having a handle coupled to a first end of a flexible shaft, a guide point coupled to a second end of the flexible shaft, and a plurality of bristles coupled along a length of the flexible shaft, the plurality of bristles having a first side located adjacent to the guide point and extending along the flexible shaft towards the handle. The flexible shaft is a stranded cable wire permitting the guide point and the bristles to navigate a 90 degree corner through a tube

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.
