  • the axis of rotation of the roller 30 is located perpendicular to a first notional line which bisects an angle subtended on the one hand by a second notional line (which is disposed substantially horizontally relative to the ground when the material 28 is ground engaging) and on the other hand by a third notional line (which is perpendicular to the ground) .
  • the axis of rotation of the roller 30, having regard to the diameter of the roller 30, is located relative to the axis of rotation of the drum 20 such that the external surface of the roller 30 compresses the material 28 so as to cause liquid in the material 28 to be squeezed therefrom, thereby forcing the liquid over the top of the pressure roller 30 and into a trough 40.
  • the trough 40 is disposed below the roller 30 and extends substantially the length of the roller 30.
  • the trough 40 which is substantially u-shaped in cross- section, is closed at each end.
  • the trough 40 may be supported between the plates 12, 13 in a conventional manner. Near the plate 13, the trough 40 has an opening m the base to which is fitted the opposite end 132 of the tube 130.

  • the element 50 is positioned such that the tip 51 of the element 50 is in touching engagement with the material 28 so as to scrape off any solid matter attached to the surface of the material 28 before it reaches the pressure roller 30 when the drum 20 is in rotation in a forward direction of the device 10.
  • a tray 52 which is mounted between the plates 12, 13 in a conventional manner so that the solid matter thus removed falls into the tray 52. If desired, the tray 52 may be removable for emptying of such matter.
  • Means 53 for enabling the device 10 to be moved manually to and fro over a floor comprises a handle 54 fixed to a plate 55 mounted on the support structure 11 between the side plates 12, 13. Forwardly of the plate 55 and extending fully between the plates 12, 13 is a hinge 56.
  • the hinge 56 supports a lid or cover 57 which serves to cover the top and forward portion of the device 10. Thus, lifting the lid or cover 57 reveals the pressure roller 30 thereunder as well as providing access to the other components of the device 10, for example, for servicing.
  • a support member 59 is mounted between the plates 12, 13 forwardly of the drum 20 and carries at its free edge a squeegee blade 60 which is substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the drum 20.
  • the squeegee blade 60 extends substantially the full distance between the side plates 12, 13 and projects downwardly towards the ground. -The combined length of the element 59 and the squeegee blade 60 is such that with the drum 20 contacting the-- ground either the blade 60 or the wheels 45, 46 can be brought into contact with the ground, by tipping the device 10 forwardly or rearwardly respectively, but the blade 60 and wheels 45, 46 cannot both be brought into ground contact at the same time.

  • Liquid 110 is present on the ground 100 and it is desired to remove it.
  • Pushing the device 10 forwardly (in the direction in the arrow 80, Figure 7) using the handle 54 causes the drum 20 to rotate anticlockwise (arrow 81, Figure 7) and the pressure roller 30 to rotate clockwise (arrow 82 as viewed in Figure 7) .

  • This squeezed out liquid 11-0 will flow over the top of the roller 30 and into the trough 40 which liquid will now be referred to as the liquid 70.
  • the liquid 70 in the trough 40 then flows under gravity into the tube 130 and through the hollow axle 23 into the interior 22 of the drum 20 where it is stored.
  • the device 10 may be pulled rearwardly. So as to avoid the material 28 from being ground engaging, the handle 54 is pushed downwards by the user so that the device 10 now rests on the wheels 45, 46 with the material 28 being free of the ground ( Figure 6) .
  • the device 10 may be now pulled rearwardly subsequent to which the device 10 may function again in the manner described above by moving the handle 54 forwardly so that the material 28 is again engaging the ground.
  • the liquid 70 which has collected in the drum 20 will not affect the performance of the device 10.
  • the drum 20 should preferably have a capacity to hold about 750ml-1000ml of liquid for relatively smaller devices increasing up to a number of litres in relatively larger device. Such capacity would be determined by the size of the drum 20.
  • the volume of liquid 70 in the drum 20 may be determined by observing the meniscus of the liquid 70 in the tube 26.
  • the cap 25 is removed and the device 10 is tilted sideways so that the liquid 70 drains from the drum into, for example, a container 80 or into a drain or sink (not shown) .
  • the tray 52 should first be inspected and emptied of material (if present) to avoid the material falling to the ground in the act of emptying the drum.
  • the tube 26 could be used to empty the liquid from the core 22 via the opening 27.
  • the tube 26 could, if desired, terminate in a spout (not shown) for ease of emptying.
  • a further alternative is to provide a second cap (not shown) on the outer surface of one of the end plates 79 of the drum 20. This would make it easier to empty relative larger devices by having to lift only one end of the device if emptying into a drain etc.
  • the handle 54 is moved to tip the device 10 forwardly to the extent that the blade 60 engages the ground and the wheels 45, 46 are lifted from the ground.
  • the device 10 is now pulled rearwardly thereby causing the scraper 60 to move the liquid 110 in the same direction and away from the corner 120. If the device 10 is now used in the manner previously described, Fig. 4, the user may now collect the thus displaced liquid 110 by moving the device forwardly over that liquid 110.
  • the device 10 may be provided with a mechanism to prevent rotation of the drum 20 when the device 10 is moved forwardly and/or rearwardly.
  • a mechanism to prevent rotation of the drum 20 when the drum 20 is prevented from rotating and the device 10 is moved forwardly or rearwardly, the material 28 remains in a stationary condition relative to the device 10 and there is thus provided a scrubbing or cleaning action on the ground 100 in the manner of a conventional so-called squeeze mop.
  • squeeze mop There are a variety of mechanisms which could be employed to selectively prevent rotation of the drum 20. An example is shown in Figures 1 and 8 of the drawings.
  • the end of the drum 20 opposite to the tube 130 may be provided with a plurality of indentations 75 located circumferentially around the end plate 79.
  • a knob 76 having an element 77 which projects through the plate 12 and extends a distance in the direction of the drum 20.
  • a spring may be used to bias the element 77 in the direction of the drum 20 so that the free end of the element 77 can engage with one of the indentations 75 thereby preventing the drum 20 from rotating.
  • the interengagement of the element 77 relative to the plate 12 should be such that, upon pulling the knob 76 in a direction away from the plate 12 and rotating it slightly, the bias of the spring may be overcome thus ensuring that the free end of the element 77 is no longer in engagement with the drum 20 which is thus free to rotate as previously described.
  • the act of slightly rotating the knob 76 in the opposite direction will cause the spring to move the knob 76 and the element 77 in the direction of the drum 20 thereby again resulting in interengagement of the tip of the element 77 with an indentation again preventing rotation of the drum 20.

  • the ground engaging wheels 45, 46 are absent as are the scraper element 50 and the tray 52.
  • the device 150 also has a supporting element 53 which is mounted between the plates 12, 13 and a handle 54 mounted thereon, the position and inclination of the handle 54 of the device 150 is such that the forward direction of the device 150 is to the right as seen in Fig. 12 (arrow 180).
  • the pressure roller 30, trough 40 and squeegee blade 60 are all disposed at the rear of the drum 20, as compared to the device of Figs. 1-11 where they are disposed at the front of the drum 20. Accordingly, when the device 150 is in use pushed forwardly, the drum 20 rotates clockwise (arrow 181) thereby causing the roller 30 to rotate anticlockwise (arrow 182). Whereas, in operation of the device of Figs. 1-11, liquid 110 flows over the top of the roller 30 and subsequently into the trough 40, in the case of the device 150, the liquid 110 will flow essentially from the bottom of the roller 30 and into the trough 40.
