ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method and a device of cleaning a soldering iron having melted solder attached thereto in which the method includes sticking the soldering iron into irregularly entangled strip elements which may be continuous, heatproof and elastic, and axially reciprocating the soldering iron in the entangled strip elements to scrape the melted solder off the soldering iron by means of the edges of the strip elements, whereby the scraped-off melted solder drops from the soldering iron as these are cooled and hardened by the strip elements. On the other hand, the device includes irregularly entangled strip elements which may be continuous, heatproof and elastic, and a case for accommodating therein the entangled strip elements, said case having a bottom and being open at the top thereof so that the strip elements may be operatively accessible thereat, and said irregularly entangled strip elements being so formed as to cooperate with the soldering iron to scrape the melted solder off the soldering iron.
