ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for cleaning work pieces is disclosed, having a tub structure wherein cleaning liquid is introduced and a predetermined number of play balls are placed. A motor is coupled to the supporting frame. The motor generates the power to a brush mechanism which comprises an arm and a pair of brushes, with the arm's first end coupled to the first brush and the second end coupled to the second brush. The link between the motor and the brush mechanism is provided by a drive shaft structure. The drive shaft structure is substantially vertical, meeting the arm of the brush mechanism at a right angle. When the motor is functioning, the brush mechanism is activated and the brushes will clean the work pieces for a predetermined time. Once cleaning is complete, the supporting frame is rolled to one side of the tub structure and the work pieces may be removed.
