Abstract
An implement head cleaning system which includes apparatuses and methods of cleaning an implement head. An implement head cleaner including an implement head cleaning base having a base bottom configured for placement on a support surface and having an air flow chamber disposed in a base top covered by an air flow inlet plate which directs an air flow through one or more air inlet aperture elements to egress through an air outlet toward an air flow generator. Materials entrained in material entrainment elements carried by the implement head can be removed by moving the material entrainment elements over the air flow inlet plate through the air flow.
Claims21
An apparatus, comprising:
- a base having a base top and a base bottom;
- an air flow chamber disposed in said base top;
- one or more air flow barrier walls disposed inside of said air flow chamber;
- an air flow inlet plate engagable with said base top to cover said air flow chamber;
- and
- a plurality of air flow inlet aperture elements disposed in said air flow inlet plate and fluidicly coupled to said air flow chamber;
- wherein said air flow inlet plate engages with said base top to provide (i) a first air flow orientation and (ii) a second air flow orientation which differs from said first air flow orientation;
- wherein in said second air flow orientation, an air flow inlet open area is decreased in comparison to said first air flow orientation.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a base having a base top and a base bottom;
- an air flow chamber disposed in said base top;
- one or more air flow barrier walls disposed inside of said air flow chamber;
- an air flow inlet plate engagable with said base top to cover said air flow chamber;
- and
- a plurality of air flow inlet aperture elements disposed in said air flow inlet plate and fluidicly coupled to said air flow chamber;
- wherein said air flow inlet plate engages with said base top to provide (i) a first air flow orientation and (ii) a second air flow orientation which differs from said first air flow orientation;
- wherein said air flow barrier walls divide said air flow chamber into two or more air flow chamber compartments;
- wherein said air flow inlet aperture elements have a location in said air flow inlet plate in said first air flow orientation to correspondingly align with said air flow chamber compartments when said air flow inlet plate engages with said base top;
- and
- wherein said air flow inlet aperture elements have a location in said air flow inlet plate in said second air flow orientation to align at least one of said air flow inlet aperture elements with at least one of said air flow barrier walls when said air flow inlet plate engages with said base top.
