Universal handheld grip for cleaning

Abstract

A hand held cleaning tool having a multi-functional, generally planar, lower surface for attaching a variety of cleaning fabrics and absorbent sheets, including fabric towels and paper towels. In one embodiment, the hand held grip has an upper portion that is molded and contoured to fit a hand, where the upper portion may be comprised of a soft foam for easy gripping. The lower portion may be comprised of a hard, rectangular plate, having sharp corners for cleaning hard to reach areas. The lower surface of the plastic block may include both a hook portion of a hook and loop fastener and an adhesive paper sheet or adhesive gel portion. The adhesive may be a reusable adhesive configured to bind and release a paper towel repeatedly. The hook fastener portion may bind a cleaning material such as a sponge, cloth or microfiber that will not bind the adhesive.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A system for cleaning, comprising:
 a cleaning tool having a hand grip;   a lower portion affixed to the hand grip, wherein the lower portion is a flat surface;   an adhesive portion affixed to the lower portion, whereby the adhesive portion forms a flat surface:   wherein a reusable dry adhesive is exposed on the adhesive portion; and   a cleaning sheet removably bound to the adhesive portion.   
     
     
         2 . The system for cleaning of  claim 1 , wherein the adhesive portion is bordered on at least two sides by a hook fastening portion. 
     
     
         3 . The system for cleaning of  claim 2 , wherein the hook fastening portion extends further in a distal direction from the hand grip than the adhesive portion. 
     
     
         4 . The system of  claim 3 , wherein the hook fastening portion is comprised of a set of four strips forming a perimeter around and enclosing the adhesive portion. 
     
     
         5 . The system for cleaning of  claim 1 , wherein the lower portion is a rectangular plate, wherein the rectangular plate has a greater width and a greater length than the hand grip, such that each corner of the rectangular plate is exposed. 
     
     
         6 . The system for cleaning of  claim 1 , wherein the lower portion contains a recess for fitting an adhesive stack. 
     
     
         7 . The system for cleaning of  claim 6 , wherein the adhesive portion is a stack of adhesive sheets, wherein each adhesive sheet in a stack of adhesive sheets is removably bound to other adhesive sheets. 
     
     
         8 . The system for cleaning of  claim 1 , wherein the hand grip includes a storage port for a removal tool. 
     
     
         9 . The system for cleaning of  claim 1 , wherein the hand grip is curved to facilitate gripping by a palm of a hand and wherein the hand grip is extendable. 
     
     
         10 . A method for cleaning, comprising:
 providing a cleaning tool having a hand grip, wherein the hand grip is curved to facilitate a palm of a hand and has a lower portion affixed to the hand grip, wherein the lower portion is a flat surface;   affixing an adhesive portion to the lower portion, whereby the adhesive portion forms a flat surface and wherein a reusable dry adhesive is exposed on the adhesive portion;   affixing a hook fastening portion to the lower portion;   removably binding a first cleaning sheet to the adhesive portion;   removing the cleaning sheet from the adhesive portion;   attaching a cleaning material to the hook fastening portion and removing the cleaning material from the hook fastening portion.   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , further comprising removably binding a second cleaning sheet to the adhesive portion. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 10 , further comprising separating a first adhesive sheet from a second adhesive sheet in the adhesive portion. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 10 , further comprising removing a removal tool from a storage port and separating the first cleaning sheet from the adhesive portion. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 10 , further comprising binding the adhesive portion to a dry cleaning sheet to enhance stability of a bond between the adhesive portion and the dry cleaning sheet. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 10 , further comprising cleaning a corner area of a surface with a corner of the lower portion. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 10 , further comprising removing an adhesive sheet stack from a stack recess. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 10 , further comprising attaching a polyester sponge to the hook fastening portion. 
     
     
         18 . A system for cleaning, comprising:
 a cleaning tool having a hand grip with a width lesser than a length, wherein the hand grip is curved to facilitate a palm of a hand;   a lower portion affixed to the hand grip, wherein the lower portion is a flat surface;   an adhesive portion affixed to the lower portion, whereby the adhesive portion forms a flat surface;   wherein a reusable dry adhesive is exposed on the adhesive portion;   wherein the adhesive portion is bordered on at least two sides by a hook fastening portion;   at least one section of paper towel; and   at least one of a polyester sponge, a cleaning cloth, and a microfiber sheet.   
     
     
         19 . The system for cleaning of  claim 18 , wherein the hand grip includes a storage port for a removal tool. 
     
     
         20 . The system for cleaning of  claim 18 , further comprising a wall mount adapted to hold the cleaning tool.
