Paintbrush cleaning device with two rotatable brushes

A paintbrush cleaning device, comprising:

• a container arranged to hold a cleaning liquid;
• a first twisted-in-wire brush, rotatably arranged in the container;
• a second twisted-in-wire brush, rotatably arranged in the container;
• and
• a drivetrain arranged to rotate the brushes in contra-rotational sync;
• wherein each of the first and second brushes comprises:
• twisted stem wires defining a central longitudinal axis of rotation of the brush;
• and
• a plurality of bristles of equal length held by the twisted stem wires the bristle ends defining a diameter of the brush;
• wherein the first and second brushes are arranged such that the axes of rotation are fixed in relation to the container and parallel to each other such that a paintbrush can be moved through an opening at a top of the container and in between the axes of rotation to be cleaned by the brushes when rotating;
• and
• wherein the brushes overlap halfway between the axes of rotation, wherein the overlap is without the bristles of the first brush contacting the bristles of the second brush.
