Bathtub cleaning machine

Abstract

A hand held tool for cleaning surfaces of a bathtub or other basin type fixtures is a portable unit that has a rotatable brush portion, a rechargeable battery system for operating a motor for rotating the brush portion, and a hose connected to a water source.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A cleaning machine comprising:
 a body having a handle portion and a wand portion opposite said handle portion, said wand portion configured extendable;   a brush coupled to said body proximate said wand portion, said brush configured to rotate and swivel relative to said wand portion;   a pipe nested in said body and configured to fluidly couple a supply of liquid and discharge said liquid out of said brush; and   a trigger coupled to said brush, said trigger configured to actuate motion of said brush.   
     
     
         2 . The machine according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a water regulator fluidly coupled to said pipe, said water regulator configured to control flow of said fluid.   
     
     
         3 . The machine according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a motor coupled to said brush and configured to rotate said brush.   
     
     
         4 . The machine according to  claim 2 , further comprising:
 a battery system coupled to said body, said battery system electrically coupled to said motor.   
     
     
         5 . The machine according to  claim 1 , wherein said wand portion is configured retractable and extendable relative to said handle portion. 
     
     
         6 . The machine according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a trigger guard configured to protect said trigger from impact.   
     
     
         7 . The machine according to  claim 1 , wherein said brush is detachable, wherein a least one of an abrasive, a sponge, a scouring pad and a soft fabric can be interchanged with said brush. 
     
     
         8 . A device for cleaning a bathtub comprising:
 an L-shaped body having a handle portion and a wand portion, said wand portion configured to adjust in length;   a brush rotatably coupled to a swivel, said swivel coupled to said L-shaped body proximate said wand portion opposite said handle portion;   an electric motor nested in said L-shaped body coupled to said brush and configured to rotate said brush;   a pipe nested in said L-shaped body, said pipe fluidly coupled to said brush and a supply of fluid; and   a trigger coupled to said handle portion, said trigger configured to control rotary motion of said brush.   
     
     
         9 . The device according to  claim 8 , wherein said wand portion is telescopic. 
     
     
         10 . The device according to  claim 8 , further comprising a switch coupled to said electric motor and configured to control a speed of said electric motor. 
     
     
         11 . The device according to  claim 8 , wherein said pipe is fluidly coupled to a fluid supply between said handle portion and said wand portion. 
     
     
         12 . The device according to  claim 8 , wherein said brush is interchangeable with at least one of an abrasive, a sponge, a scouring pad and a soft fabric can be interchanged with said brush. 
     
     
         13 . The device according to  claim 8 , further comprising:
 a battery system coupled to said body, said battery system electrically coupled to said electric motor.   
     
     
         14 . A process for using a cleaning machine comprising:
 a body having a handle portion and a wand portion opposite said handle portion, said wand portion configured extendable; a motor operated brush coupled to said body proximate said wand portion; a pipe nested in said body; a trigger coupled to said brush, said process comprising:
 coupling a source of fluid to said pipe; 
 actuating said brush with said trigger; 
 discharging said fluid out of said brush; 
 rotating and swiveling said brush; and 
 scrubbing a surface with said brush. 
   
     
     
         15 . The process of  claim 14 , further comprising:
 extending and retracting said wand portion relative to said handle portion.   
     
     
         16 . The process of  claim 14 , further comprising:
 controlling a speed of rotation of said brush, by adjusting the wand portion.   
     
     
         17 . The process of  claim 14 , further comprising:
 replacing said brush with at least one of an abrasive, a sponge, a scouring pad and a soft fabric.   
     
     
         18 . The process of  claim 14 , further comprising:
 recharging a battery coupled to said motor.
