Magnetic rotating cleaning apparatuses for cleaning of aquarium walls are shown and described. Each of the cleaning apparatuses includes a first magnetic assembly disposed on an outer surface of the aquarium wall, the first magnetic assembly having an anti-friction pad fixedly attached to a first end of the first magnetic assembly, and a second magnetic assembly disposed on an inner surface of the aquarium wall, the second magnetic assembly magnetically paired to the first magnetic assembly, the second magnetic assembly having a scouring pad fixedly attached to a surface of the second magnetic assembly, the scouring pad making surface-to-surface contact with the inner surface of the aquarium wall. Rotation of a rotation mechanism drives rotation of the first magnetic assembly, rotation of the first magnetic assembly causing synchronistic rotation of the second magnetic assembly. In some examples, the scouring pad has at least one opening configured to reduce surface-to-surface contact between the scouring pad and the inner surface of the aquarium wall, and to collect debris from the inner surface of the aquarium wall and reduce friction during rotation. |

1. A magnetic rotating cleaning apparatus for cleaning an aquarium wall, comprising:
a first magnetic assembly configured to be disposed on an outer surface of the aquarium wall, the first magnetic assembly having:
a first assembly main body,one or more first assembly magnetically attractable elements fixedly housed in the first assembly main body,an anti-friction pad fixedly attached to a first end of the first magnetic assembly, the anti-friction pad configured to make surface-to-surface contact with the outer surface of the aquarium wall, anda first coupling partner disposed on a second end of the first magnetic assembly, the second end on an opposite side of the first magnetic assembly relative to the first end; a second magnetic assembly disposed on an inner surface of the aquarium wall, the second magnetic assembly configured to be magnetically paired to the first magnetic assembly, the aquarium wall disposed between the first magnetic assembly and the second magnetic assembly when engaged with the aquarium wall, the second magnetic assembly having:
a second assembly main body,one or more second assembly magnetically attractable elements fixedly housed in the second assembly main body, anda scouring pad fixedly attached to a surface of the second magnetic assembly, the scouring pad configure to make surface-to-surface contact with the inner surface of the aquarium wall; and a rotation mechanism, the rotation mechanism including a second coupling partner selectively matable to the first coupling partner, wherein the first coupling partner and the second coupling partner are selectively mated to form a coupling mechanism and the rotation mechanism is configured to drive rotation of the first magnetic assembly, rotation of the first magnetic assembly causing synchronistic rotation of the second magnetic assembly. |
