Abstract

A paint brush cleaning system includes a housing and a paint brush cleaner attached to the housing. The housing contains solvent that helps clean a paint brush. The paint brush cleaner rotates a wire brush against the bristles of the paint brush and actuates a pump to eject solvent drawn from the housing as the paint brush is moved in translation. The wire brush is coupled to a retractable cord, which rotates the wire brush. A holder is simultaneously coupled to the retractable cord and the pump. When force is exerted on the holder, the retractable cord rotates the wire brush and the pump ejects solvent. A user can insert a paint brush handle through the holder, thus actuating the pump and rotating the wire brush by applying force to the handle. The housing attaches to a user's belt, providing easy access to the paint brush cleaning system.

Abstract

Introduced here is a soap dispenser that uses gravitational force to dispense soap from a liquid soap bottle into a tray. The soap dispenser includes the tray and a socket. The socket is attached to the soap bottle socket, which is then securely held by an interlocking mechanism of the socket. The interlocking mechanism can be, for example, a threaded locking system. Once the soap bottle is secured by the socket, the soap dispenser and bottle are inverted together, such that the bottom surface of the tray is resting on a flat surface and the soap bottle is upside-down. The socket also includes an outlet that opens towards the tray. When inverted, the soap from the soap bottle is dispensed from the outlet into the tray.
