Abstract
A novel cleaning tool is provided. A net-like carrier is twined on an inner cylinder. Protrusions of the inner cylinder are butted again a cleaning unit. With the net-like carrier and the protrusions, a bond between the cleaning unit and the inner cylinder is enhanced to strengthen the whole structure. Thus, stability of high-speed rotation of the cleaning unit is further improved to avoid separating the cleaning unit and the inner cylinder.
Claims1
A cleaning cylinder apparatus, comprising:
- an inner cylinder of a first overall length, said inner cylinder having a plurality of protrusions only on at least a part of an outer surface of a medially arranged shorter second length portion of said inner cylinder such that the protrusions are located only within the medially arranged portion of the outer surface of the inner cylinder of the second shorter length and not extending to either end of the inner cylinder, wherein each to surface of each protrusion is a cambered surface or is shrunk;
- a net-like carrier made of flexible material and of substantially the shorter second length, said net-like carrier being covered around only on said medially arranged shorter second length portion of the outer surface of said inner cylinder, said net-like carrier being twined to said protrusions on said outer surface of said inner cylinder;
- and
- a cleaning unit made of sponge material and with a central hollow and a plurality of cleaning parts arranged on an outer surface of the cleaning unit and wherein the cleaning unit is of substantially the shorter second length, said cleaning unit being an outer cylinder around only on said medially arranged shorter second length portion of the outer surface of said inner cylinder, said cleaning unit being adhered around on said inner cylinder by closely binding said protrusions and said net-like carrier.
