发明名称 Deck Gap Cleaning Tool
摘要 One embodiment of a tool for cleaning the gaps between boards (48) that includes a handle (42) attached to a handle adapter (36) that is fastened to an elongated tube (20) at a midpoint. A plurality of independently adjustable blades (22) are slid onto the tube (20), and secured with pressure by fasteners. Height-adjustment glides (30) are fastened to the tube (20) so that the blades (22) are positioned at a depth for both the most effective cleaning of gaps (48), and also to avoid the blades (22) having excessive contact with supporting joists (46) during tool operation. The glides (30) are made so they will slide over the deck surface without causing damage to boards (44) or surface treatments. To remove accumulated debris, the blades (22) are moved back and forth in the gaps (48) by pulling and pushing the handle (42).

主权项 1. A deck gap cleaning tool comprising: an elongated handle; an elongated member such as a tube, rod or bar attached perpendicularly at an intermediate point, either directly or with a handle adapter, to one end of said handle; a plurality of blades adjustable along and fastened to said member; two glides or wheels, with vertical height adjustability, fastened perpendicularly to the bottom of said member and at predetermined points along said member;whereby said blades are each independently adjusted and fastened along said member based on width of deck boards so said blades can be received into a plurality of gaps between said boards simultaneously, and said glides or wheels are adjusted vertically and rest on top of said boards so the depth of said blades into said gaps closely matches the height of said boards, thereby keeping the tips of said blades slightly above the supporting deck structure, commonly known as joists in the art, so that operation of said tool will be unimpeded by said joists, and said joists will not be damaged by said blades during a normal back and forth cleaning motion of said tool by pushing and pulling said handle, thereby efficiently cleaning debris out of said plurality of said gaps simultaneously of decks or similar architectural structures.
