CARL H. xoExEa, or DAYTON, 01110.
Mor HOLDER.`
Application led June 23, 1927. Serial No. 200,989.
This invention relates to improvements in mop holders.
It is among the objects of the present invention to provide a mop holder of simple structure and design which may be commercially produced at a minimum costof labor and material.
Further objects and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the following description, reference being had to the accompanying drawing wherein a preferred embodiment of on-e form of the present invention is clearly shown.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a side view, partly in section, illustrating the improved mop holder; and
Fig. 2 is a transverse section taken along the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Referring to the drawing, the numeral 2O designates the handle of the mop holder, at the end of which are provided two U-shaped slots or grooves 21 and 22, longitudinal of the handle and diametrically opposite each other. These slots or grooves terminate in a transverse passage 23 formed near the end of the handle 20.
The holder comprises a holder bar 24 and a brace bar 25 both of which have portions anchored in the handle. The holder bar portion 26 fits into the groove 21 while the brace bar portion 27 fits into groove 22. Both of these portions 26 and 27 have bent ends which extend into the transverse passage 23 when the holder bar and brace bar are placed on the handle. A sleeve 28 which fits snugly about the handle 20 is slid over the bar containing grooves 21 and 22 so that the inner' surface of said sleeve will engage said bars in the grooves and rigidly7 hold them in position therein thus `securely anchoring the holder and brace bars to the handle. Initially the ends of said bars extending into the grooves are so formed that at the end of the handle they will fit into both grooves, but as they approach the. transverse passage they will extend outwardly slightly so that it is necessary to iiex them into position in the grooves. This causes them to exert an outward pressure upon the sleeve when it surrounds them thus aiding in maintaining the sleeve upon the handle.
The holder bar and the brace bar diverge outwardly from the handle inopposite vdirections and at a proper distance from the handle both are bent to provide substantially parallel portions. The parallel portion 30 of the holder' bar 24 is provided with a bend forming a hump 31.
The .parallel portions of both bars are again bent to provide inwardly extending arms 32 and 33 on the holder bar and brace bar respectively. These are in spaced relation and parallel to each other. The end ot' the brace bar arm is bent tightly about the humped portion of the holder bar thereby bracing and stiffening the holder bar. The hump revents the brace bar end from longitudina movement on the holder bar.`
A locking clip 34 is carried loosely on the brace bar and is adapted to be placed over the free end of the holder bar arm when it is sprung toward the brace bar arm, the clip fitting into an indent provided adjacent the end of the holder bar arm so that the mop, when placed on the holder arm, is prevented from slipping off. I
From the foregoing it may be seen that the present mop holder is constructed from two bars bent into shape, which are removably held securely in a handle by means .ot a metallic tube or sleeve.y The bars may be replaced easily and the mop is simply slipped upon the holder bar arm and locked there by a clip carried by the brace bar. Rust proof metal may be used in constructing this device.
While the form of embodiment of the present invention as herein disclosed, constitutes a preferred form, it is to be understood that other forms might be adopted, all coming Within the scope of the claims which follow.
What is claimed is as follows:
1. A device of the character described comprising, a handle in which are anchored a pair of clamping members having portions diverging from the handle in diametrically opposite directions said members being bent inwardly at a. properly spaced distance from the end of the handle toward each other to provide parallel, spaced branches, the one clamping member having a hump bent therein at a point in axial alignment with the branch of the other clamping member, the end of the last mentioned branch being bent about the hump of the other clamping member to anchor it to said member so that thev former cannot move longitudinally of the latter; and a clip carried on the anchored branch of the one member, adapted to be latched over the free end of the branch of the other clamping member for securing this free end of the said member to the anchored branch at a point remote from its anchorage at the hump of the one clamping member. v
2. A device of the character described,
com risinfr a handle su ortinor a air of clamping members diverging angularly outwardly from said handle, each member `having a right-angled bend providing inwardly extending, spaced, parallel branches, the one clamping member having a hump formation between its right angled bend and the handle about which the branch of the other member is bent, immovably to secure the end of the one member on the other member.
3. A device of the character described,
,merece comprising a handle Vsupporting a pan-.of clamping members diverging angularly outwardly from said handle, each member having a right angled bend providing inwardly extending, spaced, parallel branches, the one clamping member having a hump formation between its right angled bend and the handle and in direct alignment with the branch of the other member, the free end of said branch being bent tightly about said hump to secure the end of the one member' immovably upon the other member.
In testimony whereof I hereto affix my signature.
CARL H. v KOEKER.
