GLASS CLEANING DEVICE
At least one embodiment of the invention relates to a glass cleaning device which comprises at least one handle, at least one cleaner device which can comprise at least one bar or at least one disc. The handle has at least one magnet disposed inside while the bar or the disc has at least one magnet disposed inside. In this way the cleaning device can operate through glass so that the movement of the handle moves the corresponding bar or the corresponding disc through electromagnetic attraction created by electromagnetic waves through the glass. At least one of the bar or the disc can have a cleaning surface such as a bristle surface which when moved can be used to clean a surface.

This application is a non-provisional application that claims priority from U.S. Provisional application Ser. No. 63/162,127 filed on Mar. 17, 2021, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
BACKGROUNDAt least one embodiment of the invention relates to a glass cleaning device. Glass cleaning devices can take many forms. Some glasses can be of an unusual shape and can be hard to clean because a person's hands cannot reach inside of a glass container to clean the inside surface of the glass container. Therefore, there is a need for a glass cleaning device which is configured to clean the inside surface of a glass.
SUMMARYAt least one embodiment of the invention relates to a glass cleaning device which comprises at least one handle, at least one cleaner device which can comprise at least one bar or at least one disc. The handle has at least one magnet disposed inside while the bar or the disc has at least one magnet disposed inside. In this way the cleaning device can operate through glass so that the movement of the handle moves the corresponding bar or the corresponding disc through electromagnetic attraction created by electromagnetic waves through the glass. At least one of the bar or the disc can have a cleaning surface such as a bristle surface, non-woven, or woven fibers which when moved can be used to clean a surface.
Other objects and features of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description considered in connection with the accompanying drawings which disclose at least one embodiment of the present invention. It should be understood, however, that the drawings are designed for the purpose of illustration only and not as a definition of the limits of the invention.
In the drawings, wherein similar reference characters denote similar elements throughout the several views:
Referring to the drawings,
In addition, cap 30 comprises a body section 32, and at least one cleaning surface 34. As described above, the cleaning surface 34 of cap 30 comprises any suitable cleaning surface but in this embodiment comprises at least one non-woven polymer mesh.
In addition, there is a cap 60 having a base section 61 and a rounded end 62 having a magnet 64 disposed therein. There is a stem 63 connecting the cap base section 61 to the rounded end 62. (See
Thus, with these designs, each of the bracket, the cap and the bar having outer housings, and bottom brackets which form a housing for an inner stored magnet. Coupled to the bottom bracket and to the outer housing can be a non-woven material which can be used to scrub a glass surface when acted upon. The magnetic attraction between the handle and either of the cap or the bar allows for the non-woven surfaces to be facing each other on opposite sides of a glass surface to allow for the movement of the handle, thereby driving the movement of either the cap or the bar inside of a glass enclosure to allow for interior scrubbing of a glass enclosure.
Accordingly, while at least one embodiment of the present invention have been shown and described, it is to be understood that many changes and modifications may be made thereunto without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
Claims
1. A glass cleaning kit comprising:
