Abstract
A rotary brush cleaning device including a wheel configured to rotate in a direction based on a direction the rotary brush cleaning device is propelled, a brush element configured to rotate in an opposite direction of the wheel when the rotary brush cleaning device is propelled, a cover configured to enclose a top part of the wheel and the brush element, and a handle that is configured to provide a location for a user to propel the rotary brush cleaning device. A rotary brush cleaning system is also disclosed.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A rotary brush cleaning device comprising:
a wheel configured to rotate in a direction based on a direction the rotary brush cleaning device is propelled; a brush element configured to rotate in an opposite direction of the wheel when the rotary brush cleaning device is propelled; a cover configured to enclose a top part of the wheel and the brush element; and a handle that is configured to provide a location for a user to propel the rotary brush cleaning device.
2 . The rotary brush cleaning device according to claim 1 , further comprising a vacuum connection element formed therethrough the cover configured to provide a connection for a vacuum device.
3 . The rotary brush cleaning device according to claim 1 , further comprises a gear system configured to rotate the brush element in an opposite direction of the wheel when the rotary brush cleaning device is propelled.
4 . The rotary brush cleaning device according to claim 1 , wherein the handle is detachable from the rotary brush cleaning device and is attachable to another cleaning device.
5 . The rotary brush cleaning device according to claim 1 , wherein the handle attached to the rotary brush cleaning device on opposite sides of the rotary brush cleaning device at an attachment location.
6 . The rotary brush cleaning device according to claim 5 , wherein the handle is rotatable about the attachment location.
7 . The rotary brush cleaning device according to claim 6 , further comprising a stopper element configured to prevent the handle from rotating beyond a predetermined location.
8 . The rotary brush cleaning device according to claim 3 , wherein the gear system is at least one of a mechanical gear system and an electrical gear system.
9 . The rotary brush cleaning device according to claim 1 , further comprising a pole configured to at least one of attach to and extend from the handle.
10 . The rotary brush cleaning device according to claim 1 , wherein the cover is further configured to provide an opening between the cover and at least one of the brush element and wheel so that debris may pass therebetween.
11 . The rotary brush cleaning device according to claim 1 , wherein the cover is further configured to direct the rotary brush cleaning device to remain in contact with a surface when the rotary brush cleaning device is submerged in a liquid and is propelled.
12 . A rotary brush cleaning system, the system comprising:
a rotary brush device including a wheel configured to rotate in a direction based on a direction the rotary brush device is propelled, a brush element configured to rotate in an opposite direction of the wheel when the rotary brush device is propelled, a cover that encloses a top part of the wheel and the brush element, a vacuum connection element formed therethrough the cover, and a handle that is configured to provide a location for a user to propel the rotary brush device; a vacuum generating device configured to connect to the vacuum connection element; a pole configured to connect to the handle; and wherein the vacuum generating device is connected to the vacuum connection element through at least one of the pole and through a vacuum hose.
13 . The system according to claim 12 , further comprises a mini-vacuum hose configured to extend between the handle and the vacuum connection element.
14 . The system according to claim 12 , wherein the cover is further configured to provide an opening between the cover and at least one of the brush element and wheel so that debris may pass therebetween.
15 . The system according to claim 12 , wherein the cover is further configured to direct the rotary brush device to remain in contact with a surface when the rotary brush device is submerged in a liquid and is propelled.
16 . The system according to claim 12 , further comprises a gear system configured to rotate the brush element in an opposite direction of the wheel when the rotary brush device is propelled.
17 . The system according to claim 16 , wherein the gear system is at least one of a mechanical gear system and an electrical gear system.
18 . The system according to claim 17 , wherein the electrical gear system is located within a water-proof enclosure.
19 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein the handle is rotatable about an attachment location on the rotary brush device.
20 . The system according to claim 1 , further comprising a stopper element on the rotary brush device configured to prevent the handle from rotating beyond a predefined position.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
