Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates generally to brushes, and more particularly, to a brush system having a storable hose and multiple brushes of different design which can be interchangeably attached to the hose depending on the desired spray characteristics.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The advent of flatware has necessitated a simple and efficient way for cleaning. Early techniques for cleaning flatware included the use of dish towels, sponges, rags, brushes, steel wool and the like. The automatic dishwasher has eliminated many of the problems encountered in cleaning dishes.

Automatic dishwashers may have drawbacks for some applications. For example, automatic dishwashers are expensive and cannot easily be installed in many older homes or apartments without major structural modification of the kitchen area. Some types of food preparation and serving items such as electric frying devices, for example, cannot be cleaned using an automatic dishwasher.

Sponges and handheld cleaning brushes are commonly used to clean flatware and other food preparation items. Conventional sponges and cleaning brushes, however, typically require that a user hold the item which is being cleaned with one hand and the sponge or brush with the other. While a water spraying nozzle may be used in conjunction with the sponge or brush, however, it may be difficult or impossible for the cleaner to simultaneously hold both the sponge or brush and the water spraying nozzle in an effective manner.

In some applications, a conventional water spraying nozzle may be attached to a hose connected to a water supply on one side of a sink. The user may grasp the nozzle with one hand while grasping a sponge or cleaning brush with the other hand to clean the item. This arrangement, however, may be cumbersome since the nozzle and the sponge or cleaning brush may need to be juggled from hand to hand.

Accordingly, there is need for a brush system having a storable hose and multiple brushes of different design which can be interchangeably attached to the hose depending on the desired spray characteristics.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is directed to a brush system having a storable hose and multiple brushes of different design which can be interchangeably attached to the hose depending on the desired spray characteristics. An illustrative embodiment of the brush system may include a hose housing. A hose spool may be disposed for rotation in the hose housing. A spray hose may be wound on the hose spool. A source of pressurized water may be disposed in fluid communication with the spray hose. A brush coupling assembly may terminate the extending distal end of the spray hose. Various brushes of different design may be interchangeably attached to the brush coupling assembly. Accordingly, pressurized water may be supplied to the brush through the spray hose and brush coupling assembly, respectively. A water spray may be discharged from the brush against an item to be cleaned. In alternative embodiments, the hose housing may be omitted and the spray hose may be dispensed from a counter or other enclosure or support.

As illustrated in FIG. 5, in some embodiments, the bottle brush 210 may include a brush handle 212. A brush coupling 222 may extend from the proximal end of the brush handle 212. In some embodiments, the brush coupling 222 may include a quick release connector. Accordingly, the brush coupling 222 may be sized and configured for insertion into and connection with the coupling socket 168 of the brush coupling assembly 166.

A bulbous brush head 214 may terminate on the extending or distal end of the brush handle 212. The brush head 214 may be configured for insertion into a bottle for washing of the bottle interior. A brush opening 216 may be provided in the brush head 214. The brush opening 216 may be disposed in fluid communication with the spray hose 154 through the distal hose coupling 164, the shutoff valve 174, the coupling socket 168 and the brush coupling 222, respectively. Accordingly, the bottle brush 210 may be configured to discharge a conical water spray 218 from the brush head 214 through the brush opening 216 in at least one application of the brush system 100, described hereinafter.

In a typical application of the brush system 100, the source hose 198 may be coupled to the hose fitting 196 of the flow control valve 192 via the source hose coupling 200. The supply hose 160 may be coupled to the hose coupling 196 of the flow control valve 192 via the proximal hose coupling 162, as shown in FIG. 1, and to the hose connecting conduit 142 via the distal hose coupling 164, as shown in FIG. 2.

The selected length of the spray hose 154 may be extended from the hose spool 132 typically by pulling the spray hose 154 through the home station arm 150. The scrub brush 178 or the bottle brush 210 may be attached to the brush coupling assembly 166, as was heretofore described with respect to FIG. 4A.

The flow control valve 192 may be opened, typically by rotating the valve handle 194, to distribute water from the source of pressurized water through the open flow control valve 192, the supply hose 160, the hose connecting conduit 142 and the spray hose 154, respectively. The shutoff valve 174 of the brush coupling assembly 166 may be opened to facilitate flow of the pressurized water from the spray hose 154 through the brush coupling assembly 164 and the brush handle 180 of the brush 184, respectively. As illustrated in FIGS. 7 and 7A, water may be discharged as a water spray 176 through the spray openings in the spray head 184 of the scrub brush 178. The brush bristles 186 of the scrub brush 178 may be applied against the surface to be cleaned as the water spray 176 is discharged from the spray head 184.

It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the spray characteristics of the scrub brush 178 can be selectively adjusted to achieve a flaccid discharge of the water spray 176 from the spray head 184, once again, as shown in FIG. 7, or a forceful discharge of the water spray 176 from the spray head 184, as best shown in FIG. 7A. The shutoff valve 174 can be selectively adjusted between the open and closed valve positions to additionally control the force of the water spray 176. In some applications, the spray concentrator 188 may be deployed in place on the spray head 184 to concentrate the water spray 176 into a narrower stream. The scrub brush 178 may be selectively detached and removed from the coupling socket 168 of the brush coupling assembly 166. The spray hose 154 may be recoiled back onto the hose spool 132 as the hose spool 132 rotates in the housing interior 116.

As illustrated in FIG. 5, in some applications, the bottle brush 210 may be attached to the brush coupling assembly 166 via coupling socket 168. The pressurized water may be discharged from the brush head 214 of the bottle brush 210 through the brush opening 216 as a conical water spray 218. After use, the bottle brush 210 may be detached and removed from the brush coupling assembly 166.

Referring again to FIGS. 4 and 5, in some embodiments, a shutoff valve may be provided in the brush handle 180 of the scrub brush 178. The shutoff valve may be configured to block discharge of the water spray 176 from the spray head 184 when actuated. The shutoff valve may be selectively actuatable by manipulation of a button, switch or other control feature 204 on the brush handle 180. The brush handle 212 of the bottle brush 210 may in like manner be provided with the shutoff valve, with a shutoff valve button 220.

In some embodiments, the shutoff valve in the brush handle 180, 212 may be pressure actuated. Upon applying pressure of the brush head 184, 214 to the item being cleaned, the shutoff valve may open to permit flow of the water through the brush handle 180, 212 and discharge of the water spray 176, 218 from the brush head 184, 214, respectively. Conversely, upon release of the brush head 184, 214 from the item, the shutoff valve may close to prevent flow of the water through the brush handle 180, 212 and discharge of the water spray 176, 218 through the brush head 184, 214, respectively.

In some embodiments, the brush handle 180 of the scrub brush 178 or the brush handle 212 of the bottle brush 210 may include an opening or port which facilitates introduction of a cleaning solution into the flow of the water through the brush handle 180, 212. This feature may facilitate mixture of the cleaning solution with the water and discharge of the water and cleaning solution in the water spray 176, 218 in the cleaning of dishes or other flatware or silverware, for example and without limitation.
