Abstract
An apparatus adapted to be coupled to a power source having a rotary drive shaft is provided. The apparatus comprises an adapter, an extension pole, and a tool head. The adapter has a drive shaft and a fluid passage. A first end of the adapter drive shaft is adapted to be coupled to the power source drive shaft. The adapter fluid passage is adapted to receive fluid flowing from a source of fluid and to permit flow of fluid there through. The extension pole has a drive shaft and a fluid passage. A first end of the extension pole drive shaft is adapted to be coupled to a second end of the adapter drive shaft. The extension pole fluid passage is adapted to receive fluid flowing from the adapter and to permit flow of fluid there through. The tool head is adapted to be coupled to the extension pole.

A multi-purpose apparatus adapted to be coupled to a power source having a motor-driven rotary drive shaft, the apparatus comprising:
- an adapter having an internal drive shaft and an internal fluid passage, wherein a first end of the adapter drive shaft is adapted to be coupled to the power source drive shaft, wherein the adapter fluid passage is adapted to receive fluid flowing from a source of fluid and to permit the flow of fluid there through;
- and
- an extension pole having an internal drive shaft and an internal fluid passage, wherein a first end of the extension pole drive shaft is adapted to be coupled to a second end of the adapter drive shaft, wherein the extension pole fluid passage is adapted to receive fluid flowing from the adapter fluid passage and to permit the flow of fluid there through;
- a tool head, adapted to be coupled to the extension pole;
- and
- a gear drive having an internal drive shaft and an internal fluid passage, wherein a first end of the gear drive drive shaft is adapted to be coupled to a second end of the extension pole drive shaft wherein the sear drive fluid passage is adapted to receive fluid flowing from the extension pole fluid passage and to permit the flow of fluid there through.
A multi-purpose apparatus adapted to be coupled to a power source having a motor-driven rotary drive shaft, the apparatus comprising:
- an adapter having an internal drive shaft and an internal fluid passage, wherein a first end of the adapter drive shaft is adapted to be coupled to the power source drive shaft, wherein the adapter fluid passage is adapted to receive fluid flowing from a source of fluid and to permit the flow of fluid there through;
- and
- an extension pole having an internal drive shaft and an internal fluid passage, wherein a first end of the extension pole drive shaft is adapted to be coupled to a second end of the adapter drive shaft, wherein the extension pole fluid passage is adapted to receive fluid flowing from the adapter fluid passage and to permit the flow of fluid there through;
- a tool head, adapted to be coupled to the extension pole;
- and
- a curved section having a flexible internal drive shaft and an internal fluid passage, wherein a first end of the curved section drive shaft is adapted to be coupled to a second end of the extension pole drive shaft, wherein the curved section drive shaft fluid passage is adapted to receive fluid flowing from the extension pole fluid passage and to permit the flow of fluid there through.
A multi-purpose apparatus adapted to be coupled to a power source having a motor-driven rotary drive shaft, the apparatus comprising:
- an adapter having an internal drive shaft and an internal fluid passage, wherein a first end of the adapter drive shaft is adapted to be coupled to the power source drive shaft, wherein the adapter fluid passage is adapted to receive fluid flowing from a source of fluid and to permit the flow of fluid there through, wherein the adapter fluid passage is adapted to receive fluid flowing from a garden hose;
- and
- an extension pole having an internal drive shaft and an internal fluid passage, wherein a first end of the extension pole drive shaft is adapted to be coupled to a second end of the adapter drive shaft, wherein the extension pole fluid passage is adapted to receive fluid flowing from the adapter fluid passage and to permit the flow of fluid there through;
- and
- a tool head, adapted to be coupled to the extension pole.
