Problems solved by technology

Although many window cleaning tools are available, there is still a need to find a window cleaning tool to solve problems that can not be effectively solved by existing products.
If a window has been exposed to outdoor for a long period of time without cleaning, an accumulation of dirt and grime would cover on the window and make the window difficult to dislodge by normal soft-washing

Embodiment Construction

[0012]The invention is based on the realization that the metal wool in sheet format can be used to substitute steel wool bundles in a window cleaning tool. The invention is further based on the recognition that the metal wool in sheet format can be fixed to a handle or an extension pole so that a window washer can wash areas beyond his hand can reach so to increase the productivity of each pass of moving.

[0013]FIG. 1 shows a preferred embodiment of a window cleaning tool of the present invention. In FIG. 1, the window cleaning tool 10 is constructed by a metal wool sleeve 20 and a handle 90 preferable a T-bar. A cutting line 70 separates the sleeves 20 into two parts: the front-right piece 27 and the front-left piece 28. The sleeve 20 is preferable a folded tailored sheet of metal wool with the front-right piece 27 been sewed to a back piece 32 on stitching lines 26 and 36. The bottom edge 24 of the front-right piece 27 and the bottom edge 22 of the back piece 32 are aligned. The fr...

Abstract

This new window cleaning tool involves the usage of a metal wool in sheet format which can be folded and sewed and fitted onto a handle or an extendable pole. This new window cleaning tool has the performance characteristics of cleaning without scratching the window and it can be used at distance. The sheet material lasts longer and actually does a better job than plain metal wool bundles.
