Abstract
Disclosed is a method of imparting a wobbling motion to a planar surface. In one embodiment the wobbling motion is imparted to a brush which can be used to clean uneven surfaces efficiently and easily. In another embodiment the wobbling motion is imparted to a brush which can be used to clean surfaces in confined spaces and reducing the risk of scratching or marring areas in the confined spaces. In another embodiment a method of cleaning a surface using a wobbling apparatus is disclosed.
Claims17
A method of cleaning a surface using a wobbling apparatus, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) contacting a surface to be cleaned with a wobbling apparatus, the wobbling apparatus having a brush and an input for a rotational movement of the brush;
- (b) applying rotational force to the input for the wobbling apparatus;
- (c) the rotational force causing a wobbling movement of the brush;
- and
- (d) cleaning the surface with the wobbling movement of the brush.
A method of cleaning a surface comprising the steps of
- (a) contacting the surface with a wobbling apparatus, the wobbling apparatus comprising:
- (i) a base;
- (ii) a shaft rotatably engaged with the base, the shaft having a longitudinal axis;
- (iii) a float elastically connected to the base and a brush connected to the float;
- (iv) a finger positioned between the base and the float and having first and second ends, wherein the first end is operably connected to the shaft and the second end engages the float;
- and
- (v) the second end being at a distinct relative position in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the shaft;
- and
- (b) causing rotational movement of the finger across the float thereby causing at least partial elastic offsetting of the float and brush from the base, the partial elastic offsetting of the brush cleaning the surface.
A method of cleaning a surface using a wobbling apparatus, said method comprising the steps of:
- (a) contacting the surface to be cleaned with a wobbling apparatus, the wobbling apparatus having an input and an output;
- (b) applying a force to the input;
- and
- (c) the force causing a wobbling motion of the output, the wobbling motion of the output cleaning the surface.
