MOP.
Applicationled September 4,` 1925.?-Seria1 No. 54,495. f
My invention relates to improvements in mops and has for its principal object a construction of mop of simple design and by which old rags may be used for the mop material. l
In the drawings:-
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of my improvement partly supplied with mop Lnia-terial in the form of rags;
Fig. 2 is a fragmental bottom plan view of the central portion of the mop head; and
Fig. 3 is an end elevation.
Referring to the drawings, A indicates the mop head which is preferably formed from a single piece of Wooden material. The head is provided with rounded ends 5, to the upper surface of which are secured reinforcing plates 6, and through each end is a reinforcing pin or bolt 7. The head is provided with elongated corrugated slots 8, Which are arranged in alignment longitudinally of the mop head and are spaced apart by an uncutaway or solid portion 9. lThe mop head is provided centrally with cutaway portions 10.
Secured to the upper face of the mop head is a handle socket 11 and formed integral with this handle socket is a securing plate or flange 12. The handle socket 11 and plate or flange 12 are formed integral and are stamped out of a single piece of material, or it may be cast as preferred. Formed integral with the flange or plate 12 are parallel projections 13 through which openings 14 are formed and through which nails or screws 15 may be inserted for securing the same to the upper surface of the mop head. The projections 13 are spaced apart about the same distance as the Width of the corrugated slots or. openings 8.
1 6 indicates a series of rag strips which are inserted through the slots or openings 8 and when tied in position by means of knots 17. In place of using waste rag strips, such as 16, I may use other mop material and secure it to the mop head in the same manner, that is, by tying. The slots 8 are provided with corrugations 18 in which the rag strips are located when they have been applied to the mop head. These corrugations will prevent the ragsv when applied from slipping longitudinally of the mop head.
In the construction of the mop, the head and handle support are made as previouslyv described, and the rags, or other mop mav ferial, are applied in position as illustrated to the right of Fig. 1 and the free ends l19 thereof are employed for mop purposes. Passing centrally through the mop head at the cut away portions 10 is a pin or bolt 2O 60 for the purpose of reinforcing the head. It will be noticed from Fig. 1 that the flange 12 of the handle socket 11 straddles, as it were, the openings or slots 8 and also acts as a reinforcement for the mop head, and G5 from the construction as previously pointed' out, the mop head is prevented from Warp'- ingor cracking either in thel centralor end portions.
From the foregoing it will be seen that I have constructed a mop of simple,jinexpen sive and durable construction and to which mop material may be easilyl applied by means of tying, and when' the mop material has been applied to the head, it is practically covered thereby so as to prevent. it from scarring .or marring the furniture when in use; the cut away portions 9l being also for the purpose to prevent these portions from coming in contact and marring the furni-v S0 ture as it will be seen that these portions are not completely covered by the mop material on account of the central portion of the mop head being not cutaway at the handle socket ange 12. 85
Having fully described my invention, what I cla-im is f 1. A mop comprising an elongatedbody of wood provided-near each end 'with' an elongated corrugated slot, said slots being separated by central web forming a frame, a reinforcement for each end of the body, a handle socket including a plate provided with projections having openings therethrough, headed means co-operating `with said openings and body for securing the socket to the upper face of the body, and a series of'rag strips passed through said slots and tied around the frame. y
2. A mop couprising a head formed from a single piece of material and formed with elongated spaced apart and aligned corrugated slots, metal reinforcements for the ends and central portions of said head, a handle socket, including a base provided with lateral projections spaced apart substantially a distance corresponding to the width of the slots formed in the head, means passing through said, projections `into the heady for. securing the socket to the mop W) head. v
3. A mop comprising a head formed from a single body of Wooden material provided near each end With an elongated corrugated slot, said slots being separated by a central web forming a frame, a reinforcement 'for each end of the body, a handle socket including a plate provided With projections having openings therethrough, headed means (5o-operating with said openings and.k body mesma for securing the socket to the top surface of the head, and a series of individual strips 10 of mop material passed through the elongated slots and tied together to the frame.
In testimony whereof I have affixed my signature.
EDWARD PRENDERGAST.
