Description:BACKGROUND
Field of Invention
[001] Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to a cleaning apparatus and particularly to a dual-sided magnetic window glass cleaning device.
Description of Related Art
[002] Window cleaning, especially in residential and commercial settings, has long been a labor-intensive task, requiring significant time and effort to achieve satisfactory results. Traditionally, cleaning windows involves wiping down one side at a time, often using cloths, sponges, or squeegees. This manual process can be both physically demanding and inefficient, particularly when cleaning large or hard-to-reach windows such as those on upper floors. Furthermore, the repetitive wrist and arm motions required for scrubbing and wiping can lead to strain, discomfort, or even injury over time.
[003] Moreover, several tools have been developed to address these challenges. Magnetic window cleaners, for instance, allow users to clean both sides of a window simultaneously. However, these tools are highly dependent on the thickness of the glass and may struggle with proper alignment, leading to uneven cleaning results. Additionally, squeegees, while effective for surface cleaning, can only address one side of the window at a time and require significant manual effort. Another popular option, robotic window cleaners, offer an automated approach but are often expensive, less accessible to the average consumer, and ineffective at cleaning window edges and corners.
[004] Additionally, despite these innovations, the need remains for a solution that combines efficiency, ease of use, and thorough cleaning capabilities for both sides of a window simultaneously. There is also a growing demand for products that are lightweight, easy to store, and ergonomically designed to minimize physical strain on the user.
[005] There is thus a need for an improved and advanced dual-sided magnetic window glass cleaning device that can administer the aforementioned limitations in a more efficient manner.

[0046] In an embodiment of the present invention, the second magnet 108b may be installed inside the hollow structure of the second brush 102b. The second magnet 108b may be paired with the first magnet 108a. The pairing of the second magnet 108b with the first magnet 108a may be conducted by a placement of opposite polarities of the second magnet 108b and the first magnet 108a in a similar phase.
[0047] In an exemplary scenario, if the first magnet 108a may be placed, in the first brush 102a, with a north pole facing the first set of bristles 104a, then the second magnet 108b may be placed, in the second brush 102b, with a south pole facing the second set of bristles 104b. The opposite polarity arrangement of the first magnet 108a and the second may develop a force of attraction between the first brush 102a and the second brush 102b.

[0050] In an embodiment of the present invention, the thread 110 may be adapted to provide a connectivity between the first brush 102a and the second brush 102b. The connectivity provided by the thread 110 may prevent falling off of the first brush 102a from the outer side, in cases of magnetic separation. Further, the thread 110 may provide an easy retrieval of the first brush 102a from the outer side, in cases of magnetic separation.
[0051] In an embodiment of the present invention, the driving mechanism 112 may be installed on the second brush 102b. The driving mechanism 112 may be adapted to locally drive the second brush 102b leading to a magnetic-remote drive of the first brush 102a. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the driving mechanism 112 may comprise the pair of telescopic rods 114a-114b, the pair of holes 116a-116b, the spring 118, and the retractable rod 120.
[0052] In an embodiment of the present invention, the pair of telescopic rods 114a-114b may be configured to adjust a height of the second brush 102b. Further, the adjustment in the height of the second brush 102b may in turn adjust the height of the first brush 102a. The pair of telescopic rods 114a-114b may be designed in a cascading fashion. The cascading fashion of the pair of telescopic rods 114a-114b may feature a plurality of internally residing rods, that may further tend to extend or contract based upon a required height that may be adjusted using the pair of telescopic rods 114a-114b, in an embodiment of the present invention. In another embodiment of the present invention, the pair of telescopic rods 114a-114b may be adapted to enable the user to hold the device 100 while in operation. According to embodiments of the present invention, the pair of telescopic rods 114a-114b may be constructed of rigid and sturdy material such as, but not limited to, a metallic material, a wooden material, a carbon fiber material, a plastic material, and so forth. Embodiments of the present invention are intended to include or otherwise cover any material for construction of the pair of telescopic rods 114a-114b, including known, related art, and/or later developed technologies.
[0053] In an embodiment of the present invention, the pair of holes 116a-116b may be arranged on a back side of the second brush 102b. The pair of holes 116a-116b may be adapted to provide a passage and accommodation to the pair of holes 116a-116b. In an embodiment of the present invention, the pair of holes 116a-116b may further maintain and restrict a uniform equidistance between the pair of telescopic rods 114a-114b.
[0054] In an embodiment of the present invention, the spring 118 may be installed above the pair of holes 116a-116b and in between the pair of telescopic rods 114a-114b. The spring 118 may be adapted to compress and expand. The compression and expansion of the spring 118 may be controlled using the retractable rod 120. The compression and expansion in the spring 118 may generate an oscillatory motion in the spring 118. The oscillatory motion may further be transmitted to the second brush 102b and may be translated in a scrubbing pattern of the second brush 102b. The scrubbing pattern inculcated in the second brush 102b via actuation of the spring 118, using the retractable rod 120, may clean the window glass from the inner side. Moreover, the second brush 102b may be magnetically adhered with the first brush 102a, therefore, the scrubbing pattern carried out in the second brush 102b may be transmitted to the first brush 102a and may in turn create the scrubbing pattern on the first brush 102a. The scrubbing pattern inculcated in the first brush 102a from the second brush 102b, via the magnetic adherence, may clean the window glass from the outer side.
[0055] According to embodiments of the present invention, the spring 118 may be, but not limited to, a compression spring, a torsion spring, a garter spring, and so forth. Embodiments of the present invention are intended to include or otherwise cover any type of the spring 118, including known, related art, and/or later developed technologies.
[0056] In an embodiment of the present invention, the retractable rod 120 may be adapted to control the compression and expansion of the spring 118. Further, the retractable rod 120 may be maneuvered by the user for the compression and expansion of the spring 118 leading to a corresponding control over the scrubbing pattern of the second brush 102b. According to embodiments of the present invention, the retractable rod 120 may be constructed of rigid and sturdy material such as, but not limited to, a metallic material, a wooden material, a carbon fiber material, a plastic material, and so forth. Embodiments of the present invention are intended to include or otherwise cover any material for construction of the retractable rod 120, including known, related art, and/or later developed technologies.
