Abstract
A cleaning device for use with a wheeled apparatus, the device utilizing the rotational motion of at least one of the wheels to clean a portion of an implement, such as a golf club. The device is removably attachable to at least one of the wheels of a golf cart and rotates therewith when the golf cart is in motion. The device may include bristles that rotate with the wheel of the golf cart to remove at least some amount of debris from the golf club when the golf club is held in contact with the rotating bristles. The device, or subcomponents thereof, may be removed from the wheel for storage, security, maintenance, replacement, cleaning, or other purposes.
Claims17
An assembly positioned on an apparatus having wheels to remove at least some amount of debris from an implement while the wheeled apparatus is in motion, the assembly comprising:
- a debris removal device having a first member and a second member coupled to the first member and configured to remove debris from the implement;
- a mounting device detachably coupled to at least one wheel of the wheeled apparatus and configured to couple the first member of the debris removal device to the wheel, wherein the first and second members of the debris removal device rotate as the wheel rotates.
A debris removal device for use with a wheel of a golf cart, comprising:
- means for removing debris from a golf club;
- and
- means for mounting the debris removal means to the wheel of the golf cart, wherein the debris removal means rotates with the wheel of the golf cart to utilize an amount of kinetic energy from the golf cart to remove debris from the golf club while the golf cart is in motion.
A cleaning device, comprising:
- a debris removal device for removing debris from a golf club, golf shoe, or other golf equipment;
- and
- a mounting device for mounting the debris removal means to a golf cart, wherein at least a portion of the debris removal device is actuated by the golf cart to remove debris from the golf club while the golf cart is in motion.
A cleaning device, comprising:
- a base having a front and a rear side;
- a plurality of bristles extending from the front side of the base, the plurality of bristles extending transverse from at least one surface of the front side of the base;
- at least one fastener coupled to the base and protruding from the rear of the base to couple the base to a wheel.
A golf cart, comprising:
- at least one wheel;
- and
- a cleaning device having a base, a plurality of bristles extending from the base, and at least one fastener coupled to the base and protruding from the base to couple the cleaning device to the wheel.
