Abstract: An apparatus and process for impinging a fluid upon an object to be treated. A generally conical shaped flow of fluid is directed from a body which has an opening at the base of the cone against an object to be treated, and located so that fluid impinging on the object reflects upwardly therefrom in the direction of the opening and has a lifting effect on filamentary material, such as hair, located on the object.

Abstract: An apparatus and process for impinging a fluid upon an object to be treated including creating a focused flow in a predetermined direction and placing an object between the focal point of the focused flow and the source of flow for treatment by the fluid therein.
Abstract: A cleaning device for paint brushes and rollers which employs a scrubbing action for lifting and separating bristles or mat for optimal cleaning and which allows the progress of the cleaning process to be continuously and conveniently monitored. The device comprises an annular spray ring having an exterior radially directed flange and a plurality of spray ports on the inside surface of the ring. The ports are aimed so that the individual water streams converge at a point exterior to the plane of the ring.
