Abstract
A unitary molded plastic bottle cleaning device, particularly adapted to cleaning catsup bottles but also usable for jelly jars and other small bottles, comprises an elongated shaft having a thin, relatively flat primary scraper blade of generally triangular peripheral configuration mounted on and extending transversely of one end of the shaft at an angle of about 40.degree., the primary blade having a linear edge for scraping flat interior bottle surfaces and a rounded edge for scraping curved interior bottle surfaces and corners; a smaller transverse flat blade on the other end of the shaft is used to clean the neck of a bottle.

A bottle cleaning device, formed of durable, flexible, resilient molded resin material, comprising:
- an elongated shaft;
- and a thin, relatively flat primary scraper blade mounted on one end of the shaft,
- the blade extending transversely of the end of the shaft at an acute angle to the longitudinal axis of the shaft,
- the scraper blade having an external peripheral configuration affording an elongated essentially linear edge effective for scraping flat interior side surfaces in a bottle, and further having a curved edge effective for scraping curved interior side surfaces and corners in a bottle,
- the juncture between the blade and the shaft being located centrally of the blade.
