Abstract
A wine-glass polisher includes a base unit having a frustoconical cleaning chamber removably fastened thereto. A steam generator, an air heater and a vacuum pump are each in fluid communication with the cleaning chamber. A portion of the steam and hot air is directed to a channel formed in the chamber outer wall. An annular, U-shaped baffle surrounding the open top is in fluid communication with the channel for projecting the steam and hot air downwardly toward a wine glass below. A remaining portion of the heated air and steam is delivered directly to the upper surface of the base unit to clean and dry the interior surface of the glass. A controller first initiates a polishing cycle by activating the vacuum pump and steam generator. Upon expiration of the predetermined duration, the controller activates the blower to dry the exterior and interior surfaces of the glass.
