H. M. STURGIS MOP HEAD Filed May 1, 1929 Patented Nov. 11, 1930 um'rao STATES NT OFFICE HERBERT M. STURGIS, OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, ASSIGNOR, BY MESNE ASSIGN- MENTS, T LEIGH HUNT, OFKANSAS CITY, MISSOURI MO]? HEAD Application filed May 1,
This invention relates to mop heads and particularly to that class in which the handle is mounted for oscillation to either side of the mop so that both sides of themop may be selectively used.
The principal object of this invention is the provision of a mop head comprising a substantially flat frame having an inner member and an outer member, the outer member being adapted to securely hold the mop material and having a three-point attachment to said inner member.
Another object of the present invention is the provision of a mop head comprising an inner frame and an outer frame, the outer frame being formed of a plurality of strands of wire twisted around each other and having mop material secured between said strands by the twisting thereof, said outer frame being connected adjacent its ends to said inner frame, and having a bar attached to one strand of saidtwisted outer frame and to said inner frame. 1
Other objects are simplicity, cheapness,
'* and rigidit of construction.
Fig. l,is a. fragmentary cross-sectional view taken on line IVIV of Fig. 2;
Fig. 5, is a detached view of a portion of the inner frame.
Like reference characters designate like parts throughout the several views and the numeral designates an inner frame formed of a single piece of sheet metal or of separate parts as shown, to which the handle receiving member 11 is hingedly mounted at 12. Handle receiving member 11 as shown, comprises a formed sheet metal hinged portion 13 which is folded back upon itself and onto a cylindrical knurled sleeve 14. When 1929. Serial No. 359,436.
so positioned, a tapered socket member 15 1S securely pressed over member 13 thus binding all parts of the handle receiving member in fixed relation. Handle 16 is adapted to frictionally engage in socket 15 and is removable therefrom.
with spaced apart inwardly extending arms 23 adapted to be secured adjacent their extremities in sockets 19 by pressing said open sockets tightly against the twisted wires. It will be noted that the mop material does not extend to the inner ends of arms 23 but is spaced apart therefrom thus permitting the insertion of frame 21 in the sockets. Bar 20 extends forwardly and is secured at its outer end to the inner strand of the twisted wire frame 21, thus maintaining a smooth outer surface of the frame 21 and supporting the parts in a fixed relation. I
The inner frame 10 may be made of a single piece of material and changed considerably in form without departing from the invention.
The mop head is constructed with its parts disposed substantially in the same plane and when the mop material is in position, is effectively covered with no parts protruding that might damage the furniture, etc.
I do not wish to limit this invention to the structure. shown and described since many modifications may be made within the scope of the appended claims without departing from the spirit thereof. What I claim is:
1. A mop head comprising inner frame withits front. portion spaced apart from said inner i framejand having spaced apart inwardly extending parallel 7 arms secured to sald inner frame, and an out wardly extending bar carriedloy said inner frame and secured at its'outer end to said looped wire frame. v
2. Amop head comprising a loop'ed'outer frame adapted to receive mopmaterialand iaving spaced apart, inwardly extending arn1s,aninner frame having sockets through which'said arms extend, a bar connecting said inner frame to said outer frame adjacent its forward portion, and a handle pivotally 7 and having mop material secured between said strands loy the twisting thereof, said outer frame having inwardly extending arms secured to said inner frame, and a bar se-v cured at one of its ends adjacent the forward portion of sa d outer frame to one strand of wire thereof and at its other end to said in:
ner frame;
4. AlIiop a' looped wire outer frame having spaced apart inwardly and forwardly extending arms secured to said, inner frame,- a handle pivotably connected to said inner frame, and
a bar positioned on a line extending between parallel tosaid arms to secure said innerframe to the "forward portion" of said outer frame.
