ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to cleaning compounds for cleaning insect splatters from a windshield and more particularly pertains to a new cleaning compound additive for adding to water or windshield wiper fluid to aid removal of insect splatters from a windshield.
2. Description of the Prior Art
The use of cleaning compounds for cleaning insect splatters from a windshield is known in the prior art. More specifically, cleaning compounds for cleaning insect splatters from a windshield heretofore devised and utilized are known to consist basically of familiar, expected and obvious configurations, notwithstanding the myriad of designs encompassed by the crowded prior art which have been developed for the fulfillment of countless objectives and requirements.
Known prior art includes U.S. Pat. No. 4,507,155; U.S. Pat. No. 5,711,956; U.S. Pat. No. 3,607,759; U.S. Pat. No. 3,337,466; U.S. Pat. No. 2,931,776; and U.S. Pat. No. Des. 301,637.
While these compositions fulfill their respective, particular objectives, and requirements, the aforementioned patents do not disclose a new cleaning compound additive. The inventive compound includes the combination of effective amounts of anhydrous ammonia, alkoxylated linear alcohols sold under the trade name SURFONIC, dry particulate sodium bicarbonate, dry particulate polyvinyl pyrrolidone, dry particulate orange dye, and dry particulate citrus orange scent.
In these respects, the cleaning compound additive according to the present invention substantially departs from the conventional concepts and designs of the prior art, and in so doing provides an compound primarily developed for the purpose of adding to water or windshield wiper fluid to aid removal of insect splatters from a windshield.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known types of cleaning compounds for cleaning insect splatters from a windshield now present in the prior art, the present invention provides a new cleaning compound additive construction wherein the same can be utilized for adding to water or windshield wiper fluid to aid removal of insect splatters from a windshield.
The general purpose of the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a new cleaning compound additive composition and method which has many of the advantages of the cleaning compounds for cleaning insect splatters from a windshield mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a new cleaning compound additive which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by any of the prior art cleaning compounds for cleaning insect splatters from a windshield, either alone or in any combination thereof.
To attain this, the present invention generally comprises the combination of effective amounts of anhydrous ammonia, alkoxylated linear alcohols sold tinder the trade name SURFONIC, dry particulate sodium bicarbonate, dry particulate polyvinyl pyrrolidone, dry particulate orange dye, and dry particulate citrus orange scent.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the invention that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
It is to be understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein are for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting.
As such, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception, upon which this disclosure is based, may readily be utilized as a basis for the designing of other compositions, methods and systems for carrying out the several purposes of the present invention. It is important, therefore, that the claims be regarded as including such equivalent compositions insofar as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
Further, the purpose of the foregoing abstract is to enable the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the public generally, and especially the scientists, engineers and practitioners in the art who are not familiar with patent or legal terms or phraseology, to determine quickly from a cursory inspection the nature and essence of the technical disclosure of the application. The abstract is neither intended to define the invention of the application, which is measured by the claims, nor is it intended to be limiting as to the scope of the invention in any way.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a new cleaning compound additive compounds and method which has many of the advantages of the cleaning compounds for cleaning insect splatters from a windshield mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a new cleaning compound additive which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by any of the prior art cleaning compounds for cleaning insect splatters from a windshield, either alone or in any combination thereof.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a new cleaning compound additive which may be easily and efficiently manufactured and marketed.
An even further object of the present invention is to provide a new cleaning compound additive which is susceptible of a low cost of manufacture with regard to both materials and labor, and which accordingly is then susceptible of low prices of sale to the consuming public, thereby making such cleaning compound additive economically available to the buying public.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide a new cleaning compound additive for adding to water or windshield wiper fluid to aid removal of insect splatters from a windshield.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a new cleaning compound additive which includes the combination of effective amounts of anhydrous ammonia, alkoxylated linear alcohols sold under the trade name SURFONIC, dry particulate sodium bicarbonate, dry particulate polyvinyl pyrrolidone, dry particulate orange dye, and dry particulate citrus orange scent.
Still yet another object of the present invention is to provide a new cleaning compound additive that enhances the ability for windshield wiper fluid to remove insect spatters from a windshield.
