| Abstract |
Toilet brushes are tools designed specifically for cleaning toilet bowls. They consist of a series of nylon bristles or another abrasive fabric, such as yarn, attached to a long handle. An individual usually use this tool to clean the toilet bowl. Once the bowl has been cleaned, the individual cleaning the bowl will oftentimes simply carry the cleaning tool, together with any germs which may be on the tool when the dirty water drips out. It is believed that this process inherently leads to the transportation of germs, via the drip water when the brush is shifted from one place to another. Therefore, the idea of a mechanical toilet brush is to overcome this problem. The mechanical toilet brush was invented by adopting the concept of a mechanical pen but with a closure at the bottom of the brush. The closure with plastic lid will prevent the dirty water drip out from the brush when it is brought from one place to another. |
