AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

"The present invention provides a dust-collecting chalk and dry marker board eraser that is inexpensive, convenient, and easy to dispose of collected dust without creating a mess. The technical effects of the invention include improved efficiency in erasing and cleaning of boards, as well as convenient and efficient disposal of collected dust."

Problems solved by technology

This would undoubtedly still leave a significant amount of dust on the front face of the eraser.
This device would only work on boards equipped with the tracks, and erased everything top to bottom, thus not allowing spot erasing.
Obviously, these are somewhat expensive and noisy approaches to solving this problem.
Besides being rather small, these do not address the dust issue.

Abstract

A writing board eraser consisting of a trough-like main body with two substantially flat end panels, a hollow handle integral and perpendicular to a longitudinal side of the main body, a soft flexible erasing pad covering at least half of an oval cylinder surrounding an axel rod connected to a rotating lever, which enables rotating the erasing pad to contact a longitudinal scraping blade attached to the internal concave surface of the trough-like main body thus removing dust which then drops into the hollow handle, which includes a threaded distal end with a mating cap for removal of accumulated dust.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This patent application is related to and claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60 / 790,221 filed Apr. 7, 2006.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates, in general, to erasers for writing boards and, more particularly, this invention relates to dust-capturing erasers for chalk and dry-marker boards.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Prior to the conception and development of the present invention, typical chalk board erasers and the like would remove the writing from the board, but the particles and dust created thereby would just drop to a ledge or the floor, and some would invariably get on the writer's hands and clothing.[0004]This problem was addressed to some extent by Yeo in U.S. Pat. No. 618,759, wherein a dust collecting chamber was built into a rather conventional rectangular felt eraser. A sliding door allowed for removal of the dust. Collection of the dust relied on the rubbing action of...
