ABSTRACT:
The tool includes a hollow housing, a cleaning element removably mounted in the housing and a handle threadably attached to the housing. The cleaning element is formed of a deformably resilient sponge material and has a centrally disposed passageway aligned to frictionally engage outer surfaces of a fan blade. The passageway extends from an inlet end to an exit end with the inlet end being vertically and horizontally tapered from a wide open front to an interior portion in which the vertical tapering is terminated and thence tapered only in the horizontal direction to its exit end. The surfaces defining the passageway are covered by a material having fiber protruding therefrom for gently cleaning and capturing the debris when the blade is passed through the passageway. The handle on the device is angled to compensate for the angle of the blade to allow the user to clean a fan blade with the handle pointing generally vertically from an overhead fan.
