Patent ID: 8882562

Claim:
A scratch removal tool, comprising: (a) a motor; (b) a housing; (c) a rotatable shaft operably coupled to the motor and movable in an axial direction along a length of the shaft, wherein the shaft is hollow and configured to pass a fluid therethrough; and (d) a head assembly, including: i. a shroud member having an open end; ii. a pad member positioned within the shroud and mounted to the shaft, wherein rotation of the shaft rotates the pad member and axial movement of the shaft moves the pad member relative to the open end of the shroud; iii. a slurry input in fluid communication with the pad member; iv. a slurry output in fluid communication with the pad member; and v. a seal member positioned at the open end of the shroud; (e) wherein the slurry input is positioned on the housing at an end of the tool opposite the open end of the shroud, the slurry output is positioned on the shroud, and a vacuum release member is positioned at the slurry input, wherein the rotatable shaft is housed in a shaft housing and the motor is positioned in a housing positioned parallel to the shaft housing, and further comprising an actuation lever parallel to the shaft housing, wherein the slurry input and the vacuum release member are positioned at the top surface of the housing.
