A cleaning device having a handle extending along a longitudinal axis and a cleaning head. The cleaning head is in connection with the handle and is configured such that a cleaning pad is detachably fastenable to the cleaning head. The cleaning device further has a detaching device that is movably mounted to the handle and is configured to be moved along the longitudinal axis with respect to the handle from a cleaning position, in which a cleaning pad being fastened to the cleaning head remains fastened to the cleaning head, into a detaching position, in which a cleaning pad being fastened to the cleaning head is detached from the cleaning head.

A cleaning pad includes a mounting surface disposed on a top side of the cleaning pad. The mounting surface is configured to provide a mechanical connection to an autonomous cleaning robot. The cleaning pad includes a first outer layer disposed on a bottom side of the cleaning pad, the first outer layer having a first coefficient of friction; and a second outer layer disposed on the bottom side of the cleaning pad, the second outer layer having a second coefficient of friction less than the first coefficient of friction.

A dusting tool having a flexible skeletal element including a base, from which four elongated arms extend. The elongated arms have a base end and a distal end. The base ends extend from the base and being spaced apart from one another at the base. The arms being flexible and resilient. A plurality of cross-members extend between the elongated arms, a plurality of living hinges being disposed between the plurality of cross-members and the elongated arms. A force applied to at least one of the elongated arms is transmitted to the other of the elongated arm by the plurality of cross-members and the plurality of living hinges.

A cleaning implement includes: a handle; and a mop-head plate with a central element which is connected in an articulated manner to the handle, and with a first pivot wing and a second pivot wing, the first pivot wing and the second pivot wing being attached in an articulated manner to the central element, the first pivot wing and the second pivot wing being pivotable between a mopping position, in which the first pivot wing bears against a first main side of the central element and the second pivot wing bears against a second main side of the central element, and a receiving position in which the first pivot wing and the second pivot wing hang down from the central element. The central element includes locking means configured to lock the first pivot wing and the second pivot wing in the mopping position.

A bowling-ball cleaning pad that removes residue from a bowling ball includes a first debris-collecting layer, a second debris-collecting layer, and at least one liquid-absorbing layer. The at least one liquid-absorbing layer is sandwiched in between the first debris-collecting layer and the second debris-collecting layer. The first debris-collecting layer, the second debris-collecting layer, and the at least one liquid-absorbing layer are coextensive with each other. The first debris-collecting layer and the second debris-collecting layer are perimetrically connected to each other. Depending upon different embodiment of the bowling-ball cleaning pad, the at least one liquid-absorbing layer can absorb only oil, only water, or water and oil.

The present invention relates to a ceiling fan cleaning device primarily comprised of an outer housing, a first end, further comprised of a handle, and a second end preferably comprised of a first planar member and a second planar member. Both planar members are comprised of a fastener that can be used to secure a dusting pad to/around each planar member and are further angled to better contact the top surface and a bottom surface of a ceiling fan blade. The device can be manipulated such that the blade of a ceiling fan is placed between both planar members, wherein the device can be moved back and forth to easily clean the fan blade.
