ABSTRACT:
A device/apparatus and a method of cleaning small parts such as for example, jewelry pieces. The jewelry pieces which are to be cleaned are securely positioned or positionable within the main cavity of the apparatus and the walls of the apparatus are made of material and have a form which will permit the cleaning solution, preferably water with a detergent added, to pass through the walls and to impinge onto substantially all of the surfaces of the pieces to be cleaned and impinge with sufficient velocity and in sufficient volume, when used within any of the well known types or brands of automatic dishwashers, so as to be effective in the cleaning of the pieces. The apparatus comprises a main cavity for containing jewelry pieces and the walls defining the cavity are adapted to permit the turbulent and high velocity cleaning fluid of an operating automatic dishwasher to impinge onto the jewelry pieces contained within the main cavity. There is an access or opening to the main cavity for inserting the jewelry pieces into the main cavity. A cover for the access is provided which is adapted to permit the turbulent and high velocity cleaning fluid to impinge onto the jewelry pieces and the small parts contained within the main cavity. The cover is securely attachable to the walls of the main cavity. There is also provided various devices, such as hooks, posts, and compartments into which and onto which various types and sizes of jewelry pieces may be securely and effectively placed and which permits the turbulent and high velocity cleaning fluid to impinge onto each of the jewelry pieces and small parts contained within the main cavity.
