Abstract
An implement head cleaning system which includes apparatuses and methods of cleaning an implement head. An implement head cleaner including an implement head cleaning base having a base bottom configured for placement on a support surface and having an air flow chamber disposed in a base top covered by an air flow inlet plate which directs an air flow through one or more air inlet aperture elements to egress through an air outlet toward an air flow generator. Materials entrained in material entrainment elements carried by the implement head can be removed by moving the material entrainment elements over the air flow inlet plate through the air flow.
Claims18
An apparatus, comprising:
- a base having a base top and a base bottom;
- an air flow chamber disposed in said base top, said air flow chamber including an air flow chamber side wall connected between an air flow chamber bottom and said base top, said air flow chamber side wall defining a periphery of an air flow chamber opening in said base top;
- one or more air flow barrier walls disposed inside of said air flow chamber, said air flow barrier walls dividing said air flow chamber into two or more air flow chamber compartments;
- an air flow inlet plate removably engagable with said base top to cover said air flow chamber;
- a plurality of air flow inlet aperture elements disposed in said air flow inlet plate and fluidicly coupled to said air flow chamber;
- wherein said air flow inlet aperture elements have a location in said air flow inlet plate to provide (i) a first air flow orientation having an air flow inlet plate bottom engaged with said base top, and (ii) a second air flow orientation having an air flow inlet plate top engaged with said base top;
- and
- an air flow outlet element having an internal surface which defines an air flow outlet passage fluidicly coupled to said air flow chamber.
