Abstract: A brush cleaning unit for a heater fixture of a smoking device includes a tube having a first end and a second end, the tube including a portion of a key for cooperating with a corresponding portion of the key on a heater fixture for attaching and orienting the heater fixture relative to the tube. The brush cleaning unit also includes a brush attached to the tube. The brush is axially movable relative to the tube and the heater fixture attached thereto. The brush is non-rotatable relative to the tube. A method for cleaning a heater fixture is also disclosed.

Abstract: A woven papermaking belt having a paper contacting top surface plane and an opposed backside. The belt comprises a fabric having yarns disposed, in part, in the top surface plane to form knuckles. The belt further comprises reinforcing piles extending from a proximal end to a distal end. The distal ends of the reinforcing piles are disposed between the top surface plane of the papermaking belt and the backside of the papermaking belt. The reinforcing piles resist applied loads and may prevent deflection of the knuckles during the papermaking process. The applied loads may either be normal to the belt, as occurs during imprinting, within the plane of the belt, which causes sleaziness of the belt, or both. The belt according to the present invention may have piles with proximal ends disposed at two or more different elevations, as well as distal ends, which are disposed at two or more elevations.
