Scrubbing tool having a dissolvable cleaning head

1. A scrubbing tool for cleaning a surface, comprising:

a handle for holding by a user in a cleaning operation; and

a cleaning head configured to attach to the handle in an engaged position, wherein the cleaning head comprises a tablet comprised of a material configured to dissolve in water and wherein the material comprises a cleaning agent,

wherein the handle and the cleaning head are configured to move with respect to one another in the engaged position during the cleaning operation.

2. The scrubbing tool of claim 1 , wherein the movement between the handle and the cleaning head allows a cleaning surface of the cleaning head to maintain contact with the surface being cleaned.

3. The scrubbing tool of claim 1 , wherein the movement between the handle and the cleaning head comprises one of flexing, pivoting, or rotating.

4. The scrubbing tool of claim 1 , further comprising a connection mechanism comprising a ball joint connecting the cleaning head to the handle.

5. The scrubbing tool of claim 1 , wherein the cleaning head moves with respect to the handle.

6. The scrubbing tool of claim 1 , wherein a cleaning surface of the cleaning head is at an obtuse angle to a longitudinal axis of the handle in the engaged position.

7. The scrubbing tool of claim 1 ,

wherein the cleaning head further comprises a second connector comprising a cavity,

wherein the handle comprises a first connector configured to mate with the second connector in order to attach the cleaning head to the handle in the engaged position, and

wherein the first connector is further configured to be press fit into the cavity to attach the cleaning head to the handle and seal at least a portion of the cavity.

8. The scrubbing tool of claim 7 ,

wherein the first connector further comprises one or more flexible rings configured to fit within the cavity and provide a water-tight seal between the first connector and the second connector.

9. The scrubbing tool of claim 7 ,

wherein the first connector comprises a flange sized such that it is flush with a top surface of the cleaning head in the engaged position.

10. A scrubbing tool for cleaning a surface, comprising:

a handle for holding by a user in a cleaning operation;

a first connector connected to the handle to mate with a cavity of a cleaning head comprising a cleaning tablet to attach the cleaning head to the handle in an engaged position, wherein the cleaning head is comprised of a material configured to dissolve in water and wherein the material comprises a cleaning agent; and

a release mechanism configured to cause the cleaning head to be removed from the handle when activated, wherein the release mechanism comprises a rod comprising a button and a release element, wherein user-provided force from the button is transferred to the release element to apply force to the cleaning head to separate the cleaning head from the handle, wherein the release element travels towards a distal end of the first connector when activated.

11. The scrubbing tool of claim 10 , wherein the first connector is configured to engage a second connector on the cleaning head to attach the cleaning head to the handle, and wherein the first connector comprises:

a cylindrical projection, and

one or more flexible rings attached to the cylindrical projection and configured to fit within the cleaning heady.

12. The scrubbing tool of claim 10 , wherein the first connector is configured to engage a second connector on the cleaning head to attach the cleaning head to the handle, and wherein the first connector comprises:

a flange sized such that it is flush with a top surface of the cleaning head in the engaged position.

13. The scrubbing tool of claim 10 , wherein the first connector is configured to engage a second connector on the cleaning head to attach the cleaning head to the handle, and wherein the first connector comprises:

a cylindrical projection comprising the distal end and a proximal end opposite the distal end;

one or more flexible rings attached to the cylindrical projection; and

a non-flexible flange attached to the cylindrical projection at a location proximate the proximal end of the cylindrical projection.

14. The scrubbing tool of claim 13 ,

wherein each of the one or more flexible rings configured to fit within the cavity and provide a water-tight seal between the first connector and the second connector, and

wherein the non-flexible flange is sized such that it is flush with a top surface of the cleaning head in the engaged position.

15. The scrubbing tool of claim 10 ,

wherein the handle comprises a first section that is moveable with respect to a second section to affect an overall length of the handle, and

wherein the release mechanism is activated when the first section is moved with respect to the second section.

16. The scrubbing tool of claim 10 , wherein the rod is positioned at least partially inside the handle.

17. The scrubbing tool of claim 10 , wherein the handle comprises an upper portion at an obtuse angle to a lower portion.

18. The scrubbing tool of claim 10 , wherein the handle and the cleaning head are configured to move with respect to one another in the engaged position during the cleaning operation.

19. The scrubbing tool of claim 18 , wherein the movement of the handle with respect to the cleaning head is configured to allow a cleaning surface of the cleaning head to maintain contact with the surface being cleaned.

20. The scrubbing tool of claim 18 , wherein the movement of the handle with respect to the cleaning head comprises one of flexing, pivoting, or rotating.
