Electric dusters

1 . An electric duster with an elongate profile defining a longitudinal axis, comprising a utility portion arranged at a distal end of the electric duster, a grip portion arranged at a proximal end of the electric duster and a connecting portion arranged between the utility portion and the grip portion, wherein:

the utility portion is rotatable about the longitudinal axis,

the electric duster is further provided with a chamber containing a drive mechanism providing rotational drive to the utility portion,

the drive mechanism includes a motor, a gear box and, an axle head extending from the gear box and directly driving the utility portion,

the chamber is positioned behind the utility portion and arranged between the utility portion and the connecting portion and the electric duster is free of a connecting axle, for directly driving the utility portion, thereby allowing the actuation of the utility portion in a more responsive manner,

a switch for controlling operation of the drive mechanism is mounted on the chamber, and

the utility portion is rotatable, reciprocatingly, about the longitudinal axis.

2 . An electric duster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the utility portion includes a core member and brushing filaments enveloping the core member whereby in use rotation of the core member causes corresponding rotation of the brushing filaments.

3 . An electric duster as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the utility portion has a width or diameter from 1-4 cm and the core member has a length of at least 12 cm.

4 . An electric duster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the brushing filaments assume the form of a sock enveloping the core member and are removably securable to the core member.

5 . An electric duster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting portion includes one or more circular tubes telescopically extendible along the longitudinal axis.

6 . An electric duster as claimed in claim 1 , comprising a battery compartment positioned adjacent and behind the chamber, and within the distal end of the connecting portion.

7 . An electric duster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the switch is protruded from the chamber.

8 . An electric duster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting portion includes at least a first circular tube, a second circular tube and the chamber.

9 . An electric duster as claimed in claim 8 , comprising a battery compartment positioned adjacent and behind the chamber, and within the distal end of the second circular tube.

10 . An electric duster as claimed in claim 1 , comprising a compartment for batteries housed in the grip portion providing power to the motor.

11 . An electric duster as claimed in claim 1 , comprising electric wires connecting and extending from the switch, batteries and the drive mechanism.
