  • Patent number: 11725298
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an electrolytic brush assembly comprising a handle assembly; a shroud extending from the handle assembly, the shroud having an aperture at a distal end thereof; a brush connecting assembly for releasably connecting a brush to the handle assembly whereby the brush extends through the aperture of the shroud and a fluid delivery assembly. The handle assembly comprises an adjustment sub-assembly for selectively moving the brush connecting assembly and a brush connected thereto relative to the handle assembly and the aperture of the shroud. The fluid delivery assembly delivers electrolytic fluid to the proximity of the brush, optionally under closed loop control.
