| 20100017993 | Rotational scratch-off card surface remover - A rotational remover including a body assembly and a tip drive assembly. The body assembly includes a body front containing a convoluted bearing race, a body back which fastens to the body front and a main spring housed within. The tip drive assembly includes a bearing guide having a threaded barrel at the front end which receives a tip, a center section which receives at least three ball bearings and a spring pivot. The ball bearings are housed in the tip drive assembly rolling in the bearing guide and within the convoluted race formed in the body front assembly. The spring pivot is housed in the body assembly between the main spring and the bearing guide. The depression of the body assembly in a vertical movement actuates the ball bearings within the convoluted bearing race, thereby rotating a tip with a serrated, abrasive surface received in the bearing guide in a rotational movement. The main spring provides resistance for and returns the tip drive assembly to a starting position after the body assembly is vertically depressed. | 01-28-2010 |
| 20110162160 | ROLLERS AND DISKS FOR CARPET CLEANING - The claimed carpet cleaning apparatus incorporates recesses in a rigid surface of a roller, a hand-operated cleaning device, or a rigid disk.
