[0036] 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.

[0037] Please see Figure 1-5 In this embodiment of the invention, a cleaning brush for a barbecue grill mainly consists of three parts: a cleaning brush head 1, a handle 2, and a connecting frame 6. The handle 2 has a first end 3 and a second end 4. The first end 3 is located away from the cleaning brush head 1 and has a grip 5 for easy handling. The second end 4 corresponds to the cleaning brush head 1 and is securely connected to it via the connecting frame 6. The connecting frame 6, as a core connecting component, not only connects the handle 2 to the cleaning brush head 1 but also extends into various cleaning structures with scraper functions, making it a key component for achieving efficient cleaning.

[0038] Specifically:

[0039] The cleaning brush head 1 is made of flame-retardant foam. This flame-retardant foam can withstand the residual high temperatures after using the grill, preventing deformation and combustion during cleaning and ensuring safety. Its internal structure features a dense and evenly distributed microporous structure. These micropores act like tiny adsorption units, quickly absorbing oil and small residues upon contact, enhancing cleaning effectiveness. Simultaneously, the foam itself has elasticity, adapting to the unevenness of the grill surface when the cleaning brush head 1 comes into contact with it, ensuring a tight fit and thorough cleaning without any blind spots, effectively removing dirt without scratching the grill surface.

[0040] The connecting frame 6 consists of the connecting frame body 13 and the front-end extended shovel head 14. Its surface extends with a variety of cleaning structures to clean the dirt on different parts of the barbecue grill and barbecue rack.

[0041] The first cleaning structure 8 is located on the spatula head 14 and is an open, arc-shaped hook. Its opening size is precisely designed to fit the spacing of common barbecue grill grills on the market. Due to its open design, it can reach the bottom of the grill grill through the grill's spacing. During cleaning, the user simply moves the cleaning brush slowly along the surface of the barbecue grill, and the arc-shaped hook-shaped first cleaning structure 8 hooks onto stubborn burnt residue and grease adhering to the bottom of the grill, scraping it off with appropriate force.

[0042] The second cleaning structure 9 is also located in the shovel head 14 and consists of the first substructure 10 and the second substructure 11.

[0043] The first substructure 10 is in the shape of a shallow, arc-shaped groove, recessed inward from the edge of the connecting frame 6, and its curvature matches the arc-shaped surface of the barbecue grill grates. When cleaning such arc-shaped grilles, the first substructure 10 can fit tightly against the grille surface, and as the cleaning brush moves, the shallow groove can scrape away oil and residue from the arc-shaped surface.

[0044] The second substructure 11 is a zigzag groove, composed of two straight lines forming an angle, and diagonally opens from the edge of the connecting frame 6. This unique zigzag design is specifically designed for grilles with triangular or roughly triangular surfaces. When cleaning such grilles, the zigzag groove-shaped second substructure 11 can precisely match the edges of the triangular grille, reaching deep into every corner to thoroughly remove dirt that is difficult to clean in the corners. Through the synergistic effect of the first substructure 10 and the second substructure 11, comprehensive cleaning of dirt on the surface of grilles of different shapes is achieved.

[0045] At the shovel head 14 adjacent to the first substructure 10 and the second substructure 11, a slender, conical protrusion 15 is formed. This conical protrusion 15 is designed primarily to address the cleaning needs of specific areas on the grill. For example, ordinary cleaning methods struggle to effectively reach and clean areas such as the grille's grid joints, corner crevices, or irregularly shaped recesses. The pointed tip of the conical protrusion 15 has a small size, allowing it to easily penetrate these narrow crevices and recesses to scrape away dirt. Its slender shape ensures sufficient rigidity when penetrating deep into crevices, preventing bending or breakage and maximizing its scraping effect. Simultaneously, the surface of the conical protrusion 15 is smoothed, preventing scratches on the grill surface during scraping, thus ensuring both effective cleaning and protecting the integrity of the grill.

[0046] The third cleaning structure 12 is located on the left and right sides of the connecting frame body 13, and is plate-shaped, bent at a specific angle relative to the plane of the connecting frame 6. The inner baffles on both sides of the barbecue grill typically have a certain curvature and tilt angle; the bending design of the third cleaning structure 12 is precisely to conform to this special structure of the baffles. During cleaning, the plate-shaped third cleaning structure 12 can adhere tightly to the surface of the baffle, and by moving the cleaning brush back and forth or up and down, it can effectively scrape away accumulated grease and carbon deposits on the baffle. Alternatively, when the inner baffles on both sides of the barbecue grill have a flat structure, the third cleaning structure 12 can also play a certain scraping and cleaning role.

[0047] The shovel head 14 is plate-shaped, which makes it easy to use the front end of the shovel head 14 to perform large-area scraping operations. The plate-shaped structure makes it more durable and ensures a certain structural strength.

[0048] A connecting component 7 is provided between the cleaning brush head 1 and the connecting frame 6. This connecting component 7 consists of a first connecting member 16, a second connecting member 17, and a connecting cover 18. The first connecting member 16 is embedded inside the cleaning brush head 1 and is securely fixed within it during manufacturing to ensure stability. The second connecting member 17 is located on the surface of the cleaning brush head 1 and connects to the first connecting member 16, serving as a connecting link. The connection between the first connecting member 16 and the second connecting member 17 can be achieved using screws or other fastening methods. The second connecting member 17 has a connecting boss 19 with a mating groove 20. The connecting frame 6 is fitted inside the connecting boss 19, and a mating protrusion 21 extends from the inside of the connecting frame 6 to fit the mating groove 20. When the connecting frame 6 is assembled with the cleaning brush head 1, the mating protrusion 21 can accurately insert into the mating groove 20, achieving initial positioning and connection. Finally, the connecting cover 18 secures the connecting frame 6 between the cleaning brush head 1 and the connecting cover 18. The connecting boss 19 is provided with a first locking part 22, and the connecting cover 18 is provided with a second locking part 23 that mates with the first locking part 22. The two are tightly engaged by threaded connection, snap-fit ​​connection or other suitable locking methods to ensure a firm connection between the connecting frame 6 and the cleaning brush head 1. Even under prolonged use and strong force, it will not loosen or fall off. This replaceable connection method allows for convenient and quick replacement of the cleaning brush head 1 when it becomes worn or damaged after a period of use, without the need to replace the entire cleaning brush, reducing usage costs and improving the practicality of the cleaning brush.

[0049] The handle 2 features a grip-friendly groove structure located at the upper and lower parts of the grip portion 5, namely a first groove 24 and a second groove 25, both extending axially along the grip portion 5. The shapes of these grooves are based on ergonomic principles; for example, the first groove 24 corresponds to the thumb, and the second groove 25 corresponds to the index finger, or other remaining fingers. When using the cleaning brush, the user's fingers naturally embed into the grooves, increasing the friction between the hand and the handle 2, effectively preventing the cleaning brush from slipping in the hand and improving operational stability. Simultaneously, during prolonged use, the first groove 24 and the second groove 25 distribute hand pressure, reducing hand muscle fatigue and allowing the user to complete cleaning tasks more easily and efficiently. Furthermore, the handle 2 is made of a material with anti-slip properties, further enhancing grip comfort and stability.

[0050] In actual use, when cleaning the grill, the user holds the grip 5 of the handle 2 and flexibly uses different cleaning structures according to the shape of the grill grill and the distribution of dirt. For dirt at the bottom of the grill, the open arc hook of the first cleaning structure 8 is used to scrape it deep into the bottom of the grill; for grill surfaces of different shapes, the first substructure 10 and the second substructure 11 of the second cleaning structure 9 are used for targeted cleaning. When cleaning the inner baffles on both sides of the grill, the third cleaning structure 12 is attached to the baffle surface for scraping and cleaning. The cleaning head is used for wiping and brushing the large areas of the grill, and the flame-retardant foam material of the cleaning brush head 1 continuously absorbs dirt during the cleaning process, further improving the cleaning effect. The connecting component 7 ensures a stable connection between the cleaning brush head 1 and the connecting frame 6, allowing the cleaning brush to withstand the force required for normal cleaning operations. The groove structure of the handle 2 ensures the user's comfort and stability during long-term operation.

[0051] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
