Abstract

A windshield wiper blade cleaning device that includes a body for holding in the hand of a user and bristles extending from the body for cleaning the windshield wiper blade. The body is substantially channel-shaped, slender, elongated, and has a web with an inner face and a pair of terminal ends, and a pair of flanges that extend from the web, each of which has an inner face, an outer face, and a pair of terminal ends. The inner face of the web has a length that axially tapers inwardly and upwardly at the pair of terminal ends of the web for facilitating insertion of the windshield wiper blade. The inner face of each flange axially diverges outwardly at the pair of terminal end thereof and convexly upwardly along the length thereof for further facilitating insertion of the windshield wiper blade. The outer face of each flange axially diverges outwardly at the pair of terminal ends thereof and convexly upwardly along the length thereof for maximizing resiliency.
