Magnetic bottle brush
A magnetic bottle brush that has a handle with an upper portion and a lower portion and a brush head attached to the upper portion of the handle. A magnetic element is disposed in the lower portion of the handle that exerts a magnetic attraction force between the magnetic bottle brush and an accompanying magnetic base.
1. A magnetic bottle brush assembly, comprising:
a magnetic bottle brush having:
a handle with an upper portion and a lower portion;
a brush head attached to the upper portion of the handle; and
a magnetic element disposed in the lower portion of the handle that exerts a magnetic attraction force; and
a magnetic base formed as a tray with a tray cover that has a liquid run-off channel disposed thereon, and that attaches to the magnetic bottle brush through the magnetic attraction force.
2. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a magnet housing encasing the magnetic element.
3. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 2 , wherein the magnet housing has an alignment shaft that orients and secures the magnetic element contained therein.
4. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 1 , wherein the magnetic element is a magnet.
5. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 1 , wherein the magnetic element is a ferromagnetic material.
6. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 1 , wherein the liquid run-off channel comprises a flexible spout or gutter.
7. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 1 , wherein the handle has a grip depression on the handle to provide leverage.
8. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a detachable nipple brush that is stored in the handle and contains the magnetic element.
9. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 8 , wherein the magnetic element additionally attaches the detachable nipple brush to the handle.
10. A magnetic bottle brush assembly, comprising:
a bottle brush having:
a handle with an upper portion and a lower portion;
a brush head attached to the upper portion of the handle; and
a magnetic element disposed in the lower portion of the handle; and
a magnetic base formed as a tray with a tray cover that has a liquid run-off channel disposed thereon,
wherein a magnetic attraction force is generated to attract the first magnetic element of the bottle brush to the magnetic base.
11. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 10 , wherein the liquid run-off channel comprises a flexible spout or gutter.
12. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 11 , wherein the flexible spout is shaped as a funnel or trough.
13. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 10 , wherein the tray may be over-molded with the tray cover that covers the tray.
14. A magnetic bottle brush assembly, comprising:
a bottle brush having:
a handle with an upper portion and a lower portion;
a brush head attached to the upper portion of the handle; and
a magnetic element disposed in the lower portion of the handle;
a magnetic base formed as a tray having:
a tray cover;
a liquid run-off channel disposed thereon;
wherein a magnetic attraction force is generated to attract the magnetic element of the bottle brush to the magnetic base.
15. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 14 , further comprising a magnet housing that encases the first magnet element.
16. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 14 , wherein the magnetic attraction force generated by the magnetic element supports the bottle brush in a horizontal position when attached to the magnetic base.
17. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 14 , wherein the attachment between the brush head and handle is magnetic and a second point of attachment for securing the bottle brush magnetically.
18. The magnetic bottle brush assembly of claim 14 , wherein the liquid run-off channel comprises a spout or gutter.
