[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-3A replaceable sponge brush includes a brush body 1, a base, a connector, and a handle 2. One end of the brush body 1 is provided with a connecting groove. The base includes a mounting plate 3, a support plate 4, and fishbone barbs 5. The support plate 4 is provided on one end of the mounting plate 3 near the brush body 1. Several sets of fishbone barbs 5 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the support plate 4. The other end of the mounting plate 3 is provided with a connector that connects to the handle 2.

[0023] The brush body 1 has a connecting groove at one end. Several sets of fishbone-shaped barbs 5 are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the support plate 4 near the end of the base mounting plate 3, close to the brush body 1. When installing the brush body 1, align the connecting groove of the brush body 1 with the fishbone-shaped barbs 5 on the support plate 4, and then press the brush body 1 firmly onto the base. Due to the special shape of the fishbone-shaped barbs 5 (similar to a fishbone, possibly with a certain angle of inclination and barb structure), they can embed into the connecting groove, forming a tight fit, thus firmly fixing the brush body 1 to the base. This prevents the brush body 1 from easily falling off the base during cleaning operations, ensuring the normal progress of cleaning work. When it is necessary to replace the brush body 1, apply a certain external force to the brush body 1, causing the fishbone-shaped barbs 5 to be subjected to outward pulling force. Since the connection between the fishbone-shaped barbs 5 and the connecting groove is not completely rigid, under appropriate external force, the fishbone-shaped barbs 5 can detach from the connecting groove. This allows for easy removal of the old brush body 1, or destruction of the old sponge, and replacement with a new brush body 1.

[0024] In this embodiment, the connector consists of a plug 8 and fins 9. The plug 8 is fixed to the mounting plate 3, and fins 9 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the plug 8 away from the mounting plate 3. The handle 2 is provided with a slot, and two sets of baffles 12 are provided at the opening of the slot. The baffles 12 and the opening of the slot form an insertion hole adapted to the connector. When installing the handle 2, the plug 8 and fins 9 are aligned with the insertion hole on the handle 2, and then the plug 8 is inserted into the slot. Since the fins 9 are adapted to the insertion hole, the plug 8 can be smoothly inserted into the slot. The fins 9 are arc-shaped, and a guide block 10 is also provided in the slot. The fins 9 are provided with grooves adapted to the guide block 10. After the plug 8 is inserted into the slot, it is rotated 90 degrees, and the arc-shaped fins 9 will cooperate with the guide block 10 in the slot, and the guide block 10 is embedded in the groove of the fin 9. This structural design makes the connection between the handle 2 and the base tighter and more stable. When using the sponge brush for cleaning, the handle 2 will not easily loosen or fall off the base, ensuring the stability and reliability of the operation.

[0025] Two sets of symmetrically arranged bevels 6 are provided at the end of the brush body 1 furthest from the base. During cleaning operations, when it is necessary to clean corners, edges, or irregularly shaped object surfaces, these bevels 6 can better conform to the object surface. Compared to the flat end of the brush body 1, the bevels 6 can reach deeper into crevices and corners, allowing the sponge to more effectively absorb dirt and moisture, improving cleaning effect and efficiency, and enhancing the adaptability of the sponge brush to different cleaning scenarios.

[0026] The support plate 4 has several sets of perforated holes 7. On one hand, these perforated holes 7 reduce the weight of the support plate 4, making the entire sponge brush lighter and easier for the operator to handle, reducing hand fatigue. On the other hand, the perforated holes 7 increase airflow. After use, air can more easily enter the area between the brush body 1 and the base through the perforated holes 7, accelerating the drying process of the brush body 1. This helps reduce the possibility of bacterial growth on the damp sponge and base, keeping the sponge brush clean and hygienic, and extending its service life.

[0027] The connector includes a plug 8 and fins 9. The plug 8 is fixed on the mounting plate 3. The fins 9 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the plug 8 away from the mounting plate 3. The handle 2 is provided with a slot. Two sets of baffles 12 are provided at the opening of the slot. The baffles 12 and the opening of the slot form an insertion hole that is compatible with the connector.

[0028] The hanging hole 11 located at the end of the handle 2 furthest from the brush body 1 is primarily for convenient storage and organization of the sponge brush. Users can hang the sponge brush via the hanging hole 11 on a wall hook or other suitable location, saving space and preventing the brush from being lost or damaged due to careless placement. Simultaneously, hanging the brush allows users to quickly find and retrieve it when needed, improving the tool's usability.
