Surface mountable cleaning apparatus for water tubs

Abstract

Apparatus for cleaning water tubs is disclosed. The apparatus comprises an elongated handle with a first end and a second end, a frame attached to the first end of the elongated handle, a suction cup attached to the second end of the elongated handle, and a replaceable net having a fine-mesh structure releasably attached to the frame. The frame maybe provided with a fine mesh net having a plurality of small holes. The suction cup provided on the handle may allow the apparatus to be easily docked onto the surface of the tub. The user may dock the apparatus onto the surface of the tub when the apparatus is not in use.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An apparatus for clearing debris from water tubs, comprising:
 an elongated handle with a first end and a second end;   a frame attached to the first end of the elongated handle;   a suction cup attached to the second end of the elongated handle; and   a net having a fine-mesh structure attached to the frame.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the suction cup allows the apparatus to be releasably mounted onto surfaces of tubs. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the elongated handle of the apparatus is extendable. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the frame of the apparatus is non-flexible and has a rectangular or square shape. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the apparatus is waterproof. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the apparatus is resistant to change temperature within the water tubs. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the fine-mesh structure of the replaceable net allows removal of fine debris from water stored in the water tubs. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the frame of the apparatus is flexible. 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein the flexible frame allows removal of fine debris from compact areas of the water tub by altering the shape of the frame. 
     
     
         10 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the net is replaceable. 
     
     
         11 . The apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein the net is releasably attached to the frame.
