US Patent:

44792794, Oct 30, 1984

Filed:

Aug 19, 1983

Appl. No.:

6/524858

Inventors:

Robert W. Schroeder - Bensenville IL

Assignee:

RoMark Technology, Inc. - Itasca IL

International Classification:

A46B 1500
A46B 1700

US Classification:

15159R

Abstract:

A brush for use in an automatic brush cleaning apparatus having a carrier member adapted to releasably receive, support, and transport the brush through sequential cleaning stations. The brush includes a rigid back, a plurality of bristles projecting outwardly from one side of the back, and an elongated support block rigidly fixed to the other side of the back. The support block is formed with a longitudinal aperture having a non-circular cross sectional shape for receiving a generally complimentary shaped carrier member of the automatic apparatus such that upon positioning of the carrier member through the aperture the brush is supported in predetermined relation thereto and can be transported without relative rotational slippage.

Appl. No.:

6/341272

Inventors:

Robert W. Schroeder - Bensenville IL

Assignee:

RoMark Technology, Inc. - Itasca IL

International Classification:

A46B 1304

US Classification:

15 4

Abstract:

An apparatus for automatically cleaning and sanitizing brushes such as hair brushes including a carrier which supports and carries a brush to be cleaned along a predetermined path and disposed alongside this path are a plurality of cleaning and sanitizing devices. The latter include one or more rotary cleaning members with fingers which engage and clean the bristles of the devices and nozzles disposed both before and after the rotary members. Liquid soap or plain hot water is selectively sprayed through the nozzles and onto the bristles with at least the last effective nozzle spraying a rinse of hot water. A cam co-acts with a follower on the carrier to turn the brush so that the bristles face the cleaning devices and thereafter the cam is effective to oscillate the brush as the latter passes the cleaning devices so that all the bristles are presented to each of these devices. As the brush nears the end of its path of travel, the cam and follower oscillate the brush vigorously to shake excess water from the bristles. As disclosed, the apparatus also includes a chamber for drying and sanitizing cleaned brushes and another chamber for storing the brushes after they have been dried.
