ratentea'aane is, 1915.
Application filed February 14, 1014. aerial No. 818,740.
To all whom itmay concern:
' Be it known that I, GIDEON ALVIN FRY, a citizen of theUnited States, residing at New Kensington, in the county of Westmoreland and State of Pennsylvania, have invented new and useful Improvements in Dust Mops, of which the following is a specifica tion.
This inventionrelates to mops and. particularly to mop holders.
The principal object of this invention is to I provide a noveltype of holder for fringe wire embedded or inserted in the fringe retaining band of the mop which rendered the cleaning or washing of the mop extremely difficult. Moreover in many of these types of devices the handle was permanently secured to the mop body, therefore, making the cleaning operation more difiicult. To avoid these difliculties I have devised a mop consisting essentially of a circular flexible band to which the fringe is attached and have provided a holder upon which such a mop can be conveniently stretched and held in operative position, the shape of the holder being important in that it permits of the use of the mopin corners and other places inaccessible to the ordinary type of mop.
Further objects of the invention will appear as the following description. is read in connection with-the accompanying drawing, which forms a part of this application, and in which I Figure 1 is a side elevation. Fig. 2 is a top plan view with the handle removed. Fig. '3 is a longitudinal sectional view. Fig. 4 is a transverse sectional view taken on the line 44 of Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the escutcheon plunger removed.
Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the mop removed from the holder.
Referring more articularly to the drawing, the mop consists essentially of a continuous band 'of fabric 1 substantially U-- shape in cross section between the walls of which is stitched the fringe 2. At diametrically opposite points in. the hand there are secured suitable eyelets or hollow rivets 3 and 4, the former extending through both walls of theband, while the latter is riveted or secured to the inner wall of the band only. The object of thus securing the eyelets will be made more plain hereinafter.
The holder is preferably constructed of some non-corrosive material and in outline is substantially heart-shaped and is generally indicated at 5, the side walls or arms 6 extending on diverging lines from the pointed end -7 as shown and curving inwardly toward-each other as at 8. A continuation of the sidewalls is shown at 9 in the form of slightly converging bars which extend from the portions 8 to the pointed end 7 and are integral with both.
Extending upwardly and toward each other from opposite bars 9 are arms 10 having ears 11 at their terminals which are adapted to receive the clamping screw 12. Pivotally mounted upon this clamping screw 12 is the head 13 of a handle attaching bolt 14 which is threaded into the handle 15, a section only of which is shown. By removing the screw 12 the entire handle may be disconnected from the mo holder and the mo used by grasping the bars 9. x xtending longitudinally through the pointed end 7 and secured therein in any suitable manner is a supporting bar 16 which lies intermediate the bars 9 and is threaded upon its rear end to receive a thumb nut 17. The forward end of the bar projects beyond the pointed end, as shown at 18, to enter the hollow rivet or eyelet 4.
slidablymounted upon the rod 16 so. that a portion of the band may be forced into the channel between the bars 9. For this purpose I provide a slightlywedge-shaped plunger 19 slidably mounted upon the bar 16 so as to wedget-he band into tight engagement with the bars and ushthe same toward the pointed end 7 t us stretching the band around the arms 6.
In order to prevent the band from becoming disengaged from the arm In practice by rising above the same the arms are provided with a flange .20 at their upper edges which extends outwardly beyond the arms and from a point midway of the length of the nose to a point midway of the portions 8. What is claimed is 1. In combination with endless mop material, a frame for receiving the material holding the inserted material therein and for stretching the mop'material around the frame and having a portion extending through the smaller end of the frame for engaging the mop.
3. In combination With endless mop material, a frame for receiving the material therearound and of heart formation, said frame having a channel therein opening into the large end thereof and adapted to receive a portion of the mop material, means operable Within the channel for holding the in serted material therein and for stretching the mop material around the frame, and
means on the frame for preventing the 11pward creeping of the mop material when positioned upon the frame.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence-of two Witnesses.
