Abstract
A magnetic tool that has a handle with an upper portion and a lower portion and a brush head attached to the upper portion of the handle. A magnetic element is disposed in the lower portion of the handle that exerts a magnetic attraction force between the magnetic tool and an accompanying magnetic base. Various drip trays allow for the drainage or collection of fluid from the brush.
Claims20
A magnetic tool assembly, comprising:
- a magnetic tool having:
- a handle with an upper portion and a lower portion;
- a functional tool head attached to the upper portion of the handle;
- and
- a magnetic element disposed in the lower portion of the handle that exerts a magnetic attraction force;
- and
- a magnetic base having a recessed central portion and a raised outer portion surrounding the recessed central portion, and that attaches to the magnetic tool through the magnetic attraction force.
A magnetic tool assembly, comprising:
- a tool having:
- a handle with an upper portion and a lower portion;
- a functional tool head attached to the upper portion of the handle;
- and
- a first magnetic element disposed in the lower portion of the handle;
- and
- a magnetic base that has a liquid run-off channel disposed thereon, and a second magnetic element disposed therein,
- wherein a magnetic attraction force is generated to attract the first magnetic element of the tool to the magnetic base.
A magnetic tool assembly, comprising:
- a frame comprising:
- a base portion;
- a pair of vertical side walls projecting perpendicularly from the base portion;
- a top portion connecting the pair of vertical side walls;
- and
- a first magnetic element disposed within the top portion;
- a tool having a handle and a functional tool head, wherein the handle contains a second magnetic element;
- wherein a magnetic attraction force is generated to attract the first magnetic element to the second magnetic element such that the tool is suspended upside down with the handle attached to the top portion of the frame.
