Abstract:
A window cleaning apparatus, comprising:an elongated support member having a handle receiver and a plurality of spaced apart mesh receiving projections positioned opposite said handle receiver, said elongated support member being equipped with opposing washing and wiping elements;a predetermined length of mesh having a width approximately the length of said washing element;a rotatable reel having a rotational axis and axially extending hubs spaced along said rotational axis, one end of said length of mesh being wrapped about said rotatable reel so as to form a reeled supply of mesh, said mesh being advancable therefrom;a pair of reel supports depending from said elongated support member to capture respective hubs of said reel and thereby rotatably support said reel adjacent said washing element with said rotational axis of said reel substantially parallel to said length of said washing element; andmeans for holding said reel against rotation relative to said reel supports to thereby permit tensioned deployment of said mesh about said washing element when said mesh is hooked upon said receiving projections.
