Description
H. HANSON MOP Filed Nov. 6, 1922 INVENTOR A1TORNEY Patented Dec. 23, 1924.
PATENT OFFICE.
HENRY A. HANSON, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
MOP.
Application filed November 6. 1922. Serial No. 599,342.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY A. HANSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Mops, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to mops, and an object of the invention is to provide a floor mop which is constructed to facilitate the wringing of the mop without touching the hands to the soiled or Wet mop head.
Another object of the invention is to provide a mop structure which is designed so that any rag or cloth may be attached to the handle structure and used as a mop head, if desired, and also to provide a mop as specified which is simple in construction and may be manufactured at a low cost.
Other objects of the invention will appear in the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying draw :ing wherein Fig. 1 is a side elevation of the improved mop.
Fig. 2 is a top plan of the mop.
Fig. 3 is a plan of the mop showing it in head wringing position.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged detail side elevation of the mop structure.
Fig. 5 is a section on the line 5-5 of Fig. 4.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, the improved mop structure comprises a handle 1 which has a transversely extending hand grip 2 at one end. A screw eye 3 is threaded into the opposite end of the handle 1, which end has a ferrule 4 mounted thereon. A cross bar 5 is slidably and rotatably mounted upon the handle 1 and has a pair of substantially U shaped bolts 6 carried thereby, one of which is positioned upon each side of the handle 1. The short legs 7 of the U shaped bolts 6 have their terminals seated in recesses 8 in the cross bar, while the long legs 9 of the bolts 6X- tend through the cross bar and have wing nuts 10 threaded thereon for securely clampmg the bolts to the cross bar.
The mop head 11 which is formed of any suitable fabric, is passed through the screw eye 3 and looped through the substantially U shaped bolts; 6, as clearly shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings, providing a plurality of loops of the fabric which form a liquid absorbing flexible head for use in mopping floors or the like. When the mop is used as a mop and as shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings, the cross bar 5 is moved downwardly towards the screw eye 3 permitting the flexible loops of the mop to extend beyond the screw eye.
When it is desired to wring the mop, the cross bar 5 is moved along the handle 1 towards the transverse grip 2 and the cross bar is gripped with one hand and the hand grip 2 by the other hand of the user, and the handle is rotated to twist the fabric mop head 11 about the handle between the cross bar 5 and eye 3, as shown in Fig. of the drawings for thoroughly wringing the mop fabric.
It is, of course, to be understood that the invention may be constructed in other manners and the parts associated in different relations and, therefore, I do not desire to be limited in any manner except as set forth in the claims hereunto appended.
Having thus described my invention what I claim is 1. In a mop, a handle, an eye carried at one end of the handle, a cross bar slidably and rotatably mounted upon said handle, a pair of substantially U shaped bolts carried by said cross bar, and a fabric mop head passed through said eye and said U shaped bolts.
2. A. mop including a handle, an eye carried by one end of the handle, a cross bar slidably and rotatably mounted upon said handle, detachable loops carried by the cross bar and arranged upon opposite sides of the eye and a fabric mop head passed through said eye and loops.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
HENRY A. HANSON.
