Cleaning Pad

Abstract

A reusable cleaning sheet for removing debris from a surface comprises a main body having a top surface and a bottom surface and scrubbing elements affixed on the top surface. The scrubbing elements are defined as protruded dots spaced closely apart and disposed uniformly throughout the top surface of the main body. The protruded dots are adaptable for scrubbing the debris due to friction created by the protruded dots and the main body is capable of absorbing the debris released by protruded dots without scratching the surface. The protruded dots provide lubrication to permit greater movement through the hard surface when the main body is wet. The bottom surface is free of scrubbing elements and is used to remove dust from dry surfaces and moisture from damp surfaces. The cleaning sheet can be removably attached to a cleaning device. The cleaning sheet can be used in both wet and dry surfaces.

         9 . The cleaning sheet of  claim 1  wherein the main body is made from a non-woven layer. 
     
     
         10 . The cleaning sheet of  claim 9  wherein the non-woven layer is made from a group consisting of: absorbent rayon fibers, viscose rayon fibers, man-made fibers, a combination of rayon with other natural fibers, a combination of rayon with man-made fibers, and pulp with man-made fibers. 
     
     
         11 . A reusable cleaning sheet for removing dirt, sticky stuff and grime from a surface comprising:
 a main body made from a non-woven layer having a top surface and a bottom surface, and a plurality of scrubbing elements being defined as a plurality of protruded dots spaced closely apart and disposed uniformly throughout the top surface of the main body, wherein the protruded dots are made of plasticized, rubberize, such as, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), poly lactic acid (PLA), polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic, or polyvinyl chloride plastic material, and the bottom surface being free of scrubbing elements;   whereby the plurality of protruded dots is adaptable for scrubbing the dirt, sticky stuff and grime due to friction created by the plurality of protruded dots on the main body and the main body is capable of absorbing the dirt, sticky stuff and grime released by the plurality of protruded dots from the surface without scratching the surface.   
     
     
         12 . The reusable cleaning sheet of  claim 11  wherein the main body affixed with the plurality of protruded dots provides lubrication to permit greater movement through the hard surface when the main body is wet. 
     
     
         13 . The reusable cleaning sheet of  claim 11  wherein the protruding dots are further made of mineral base materials or a combination of mineral base and plastic materials. 
     
     
         14 . The reusable cleaning sheet of  claim 11  wherein the bottom surface is used to remove dust from dry surfaces and wipe moisture from damp surfaces. 
     
     
         15 . The reusable cleaning sheet of  claim 11  wherein the non-woven layer is made from a group consisting of: absorbent rayon fibers, viscose rayon fibers, man-made fibers, a combination of rayon with other natural fibers, a combination of rayon with man-made fibers, and pulp with man-made fibers. 
     
     
         16 . A method for cleaning a surface utilizing a cleaning sheet, the method comprising the steps of:
 (a) providing the cleaning sheet comprising a main body having a top surface and a bottom surface, wherein the top surface being affixed with a plurality of scrubbing elements and the bottom surface being free of scrubbing elements;   (b) moistening the main body with a cleaning solution;   (c) placing the top surface of the main body upon the surface to be cleaned;   (d) scrubbing dirt, sticky stuff and grime stuck on the surface with the plurality of scrubbing elements; and   (e) wiping the dirt, sticky stuff and grime with the main body;   whereby the main body is adaptable to absorb the dirt, sticky stuff or grime released by the plurality of scrubbing elements from the surface without scratching the surface.   
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 16  wherein the step (c) further comprising:
 (c1) attaching the main body on a cleaning head of a cleaning device.
