Abstract: The paintbrush-cleaning device includes a housing with an open top, a bottom drain and a central space, containing paintbrush-cleaning liquid therein. A pair of rotatable radial brushes brackets the paintbrushes in the central space and are powered by an electric motor connected to the housing. A number of spaced upwardly directed jet nozzles are disposed in the central space and direct streams of cleaning liquid under pressure upwards towards the paintbrushes. An impeller pump may be connected to a manifold in the central space, from which manifold the jet nozzles extend. Two radial brushes may be used, with the members disposed opposite each other adjacent the sides of the top opening. The radial brushes bear a bristle portion comprising cleaning bristles, which is configured in a spiral along the length of the radial wound brush.

Abstract: A camera lens shading device is disclosed having a flexible mounting band that attaches to a camera lens shroud and shade pieces, the shade pieces being made of opaque, flexible, plastic sheet material. A top shade piece attaches to the mounting band and extends outward from above the camera lens, adjustable over a range of angles. Two side shade pieces are attached to the top shade piece and are adjustable in angle to the top piece and in lateral distance therefrom for fitting a variety of camera lens shroud widths. A hinge section is formed in the top shade piece and side shade pieces for angle adjustment, whereby each piece can be adjusted independently to obtain a desired shading effect. A visor section extends forward from the top shade piece and rear screening sections extend rearward from the side shade pieces to further control the light entering the camera lens area.
