INVENTOR I l I l ATTORNEY rn sans s THOMAS E. GAVIN, 0F MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA.
Meenemen.
f To all whom t may concern.'
vBe it known that I, THOMAS E.' GAVIN,
a citizen of the United States, residing atv Minne'apolisfin the county of Hennepin and ers, of which the following is a specification. My invention relates broadly to that class of inventions lmown as brushing and scrubbing', andv more particularly has reference to a mop holder.
As the particular object,A this invention contemplates the provision of amop ,holder embodying novel means t,whereby the.'mop cloth can bevquickly and expeditiously ap-..
plied to and removed from position.
It is a more specific object of this invena tion to pivotally connect, a cross bar, which serves to support the mop cloth, to one of the main side barsr and removably associate the said cross bar with the other side bar so that in effect the side bars and cross bar' to constitute aframe with which coperates a follower slidablyt mounted thereinl and adapted to removably bear against the cross bar so as uto removably hold the mop cloth therebetween'. V A still further object of my invention resides in the provision of-a device of the character described that is simple in construction, eiicient in operation and one -that can be manufactured and placed on ,the-market at a minimum cost. f e A Other objects as well -as the nature,y charactei-istie features and scope of my invention will be more readily understood from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and pointed lout in the claim forming a part of this speciicatiom In; the drawings: Y t Figure 1 is a front elevation of my invention, the dotted lines indicating the cross.
bar when disengaged to permit` of the remental side bars 2. rI`he bars have their y inner ends anchored in the. reduced ends of t-he handle preferably as indicated by the numeral 3 and are held in position through Specification of Iietters Patent. Patented May 28, 19h30 Application led May 24, 1916. Serial No.99,630. 1"
the medium of a sleeve 4. The bars are desirably arranged in divergent -relation with each other and have portions 5 adjacent their outer terminals and arranged in spaced parallel relation with each other. EEyes 6 lare formed on .the terminals of the bars 2 and are arranged desirably atright angles thereto;
1n order to facilitate the expeditious removaland application of a mop, I have provided my improved cross bar 7. A loop 8 is formed upon one end of the bar l7',fthrough the medium of which pivotal connection is maintained with one of the loops 6. 'A hook 9 is formed on the free end of the cross bar and is removably engaged in the eye 6 on the other bar. As is readily apparent when this bar 7 is in position as indicated in Fig.
1, a substantial frame is provided.
A threaded rod `10 is anchored on one end from thevhandle, being positioned between the` side bars 2. A winged nut 11 is ad;
justably mounted -on this jrod. A ollower of the vhandle and extends longitudinally4 indicated by the numeral 13, and has the respective ends thereof slidably mounted between the parallel arranged' portions 5 of the side bars. rllhe end surface of the follower is provided with a groove 14 which eX-l tends longitudinally thereof and which groove is adapted to receive a mop arranged' on the cross bar 7 when the latter is'in posi-- tion yas illustrated in Eig.` 1. 1t is thought to be readily apparent that by actuating the winged nut 11 the/follower 12 will coperv ate with'the bar 7 and clamp the mop therebetween.- When it is desired to remove the vmop, it is only\ necessary .'to unscrew the nut 11 lift the follower a suiicient extent to permit of the removal of the hook 9 from` engagementV with the eye 6 to consequently permit of the removal of the mop. g
WOne of the principal advantagesincident to the use of this device is the manner in which stringy mops, which diave become twisted together, can be removed from position by merely 'disengaging the hook 9 and sliding the ymop longitudinally along the bar 7 a new mop can be applied in any desirable manner and the bar 7 can be again engaged, whereupon the vfollower 12 can be subsequently adjusted to rigidly maintain` the mop in position.
Although l have shown and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, ll
i no
desire it to be understood that I am not to be ylimited to the eXact detail shown, however, I desire that great stress be laid upon the arrangement of the movably mounted cross bar which serves tosupport the mop and which facilitates the removal and application of the mop in position.
From the above description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, it
can easily be seen that 4.I have provided a device that is simple in construction, containing but a few simple parts that can be cheaply manufactured andv assembled and when Iassembled can be placed upon the market and sold, at a minimum cost.
It will be understood that the above de scri tion and accompanying drawings compre end only the general embodiment of my invention and that various minor changes in detail of construction, proportion and arrangement of the parts may be made within the scope of the appended claim and Without sacrificing any of the advanserving as guides, the other and free ends of the bars being bent inwardly toward each other and provided with eyes, 'a cross-bar having an eye at one end and a"`hook at theL other end, said eye being rotatably connected with a, side bar eye and the hook being adapted to removably engage with the eye of the opposite side bar, said cross bar being adapted to detachably carry the mop, an
approximately T-shaped movable clamping frame having grooved ends adapted to slid- 'ably engage the side bars and be guided thereby, a stationary screwstud having one end anchored in the handle and projecting therefrom between the side bars, the clamping frame being provided with a through hole so that said frame is adapted to receive- 'l and be slidably engaged on the stud, and a nut on the stud serving to force the frame downwardly for causing the transverse portion of the fra-nie to clamp the mop on 'the cross-bar, said stud passing through the frame and serving to guide and coperate with the frame independently of the position ofthenut. 4
In testimony whereof I aHiX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
