ABSTRACT:
An adapter for a rotating device such as a manually operated spinner or electric drill is disclosed for the cleaning and drying of paint rollers. In painting, small rollers known as "weenie rollers" or "slim jims" are employed to permit paint to be applied to hard to reach areas such as on top of doors or behind radiators. Currently these small rollers are single use and intended to be disposed. The adapter of the invention will permit these small rollers to be cleaned and reused. The adapter will be intermediate the small roller and the device imparting rotating motion. The small roller includes a centrally disposed aperture which receives a mating portion of the adapter. A roller scraping element is disposed on the body of the adapter. The adapter includes a portion for coacting with various devices which impart rotary motion. The adapter may be constructed of plastic or other suitable material. The adapter may be mass produced by plastic injection molding techniques.
