BACKGROUND

1. Field of Invention

The present invention relates to a cleaning assembly. More particularly, the present invention relates to a ventilating cleaning assembly.

2. Description of Related Art

Portable touch reading devices, such as tablet PCs, mobile phones, iPads, iPhones, e-BOOKs, etc., all have touch screens to allow users to use by touch. These portable touch reading devices are usually carried by users so that users can access them at any time.

Because users carry the portable touch reading devices and the portable touch reading devices are ready to use at any time, dust and dirt in the air tend to accumulate on the touch panels whenever the portable touch reading devices are utilized outdoors or in environments not clean. In addition to that, the operations of the touch screens are performed by touching the touch screens with users fingers, fingerprints easily adhere to the touch screen. The dust and fingerprints will significantly affect acuity of touch screens and camera lenses. In order to achieve the visual clarity and reading clarity, it is necessary to remove contaminants such as dust and fingerprints on the touch screens at all time.

When cleaning the touch screens, it is not suitable to use items being hand-carried, such as tissues or handkerchiefs which are rough, since the touch screens will be severely scratched. Rather, dedicated cleaning cloths are utilized to wipe and clean the touch screens. In order to remove, for example, fingerprints or grease spots, sometimes a cleaning agent is needed to assist in the cleaning. That is done by spraying the cleaning agent onto the cleaning cloth first and then wiping the contaminants off the screen with the cleaning cloth so as to achieve a complete cleaning effect.

However, the cleaning agent bottles and the cleaning cloths in the currently commercially available cleaning assembly are separate items. Thus, the sizes are big and all parts are separate, which are not convenient to carry, Additionally, the prior art cleaning cloth is usually stored in a closed box. The cleaning cloth is still in a wet state after the cleaning cloth has been moistened with the cleaning agent and used to wipe the screen. Once the cleaning cloth is stored in the closed box, bacteria breed on the cleaning cloth so that the cleaning cloth becomes mouldy, thus being not sanitary and affecting the cleaning effect thereafter.

For the foregoing reasons, there is a need to solve the above-mentioned problems by providing a ventilating cleaning assembly.
