Abstract
A cleaning tool has a stick or rod supporting a length of rope twisted material wound in a spiral pattern. A first embodiment includes a rope twisted spiral of material applied directly to a stick. In a second embodiment, the rope twisted spiral is applied over a wound layer of material wound in the standard manner and at right angles to the axis of the stick. This embodiment is in effect a padded spiral with the rope twisted material being padded underneath and cushioned by the standard material winding. In a third embodiment, a tightly spaced length of rope-wound material is attached to a stick. In a fourth embodiment, the tightly spaced length of rope-wound material is spiral cut to provide custom shaping to the ridges of the spiral shape. In a fifth embodiment, an extruded length of material with a 30° angle is wrapped onto a rod. In a sixth embodiment, the cleaning surface and the rod are integrally formed. In a seventh embodiment, a length of cut sponge is applied to the rod. In an eighth embodiment, a conically shaped under layer of wound cotton supports an over layer of rope cotton having constant cross section. In a ninth embodiment, an integrated structure has an overall sharply taperted shape but with a constant angled spiral ridge outer surface.
