Description
NOV. 7, H, HERTZBERG WET MOP Filed Oct. 8. 1931 INVENTOR M4/'WVV- ATTORNEY Patented Nov. 7, 1933 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE Application October 8,
2 Claims.
'Ihis invention relates to mops and particularly to the construction of wet mops, and it is the object of this invention to provide most simple means to unite the mop-forming cords into a mop head and to fasten said head securely to a handle or mop stick.
It is another object of this invention to provide a mop of this type without any metallic supporting members.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear more clearly as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the novel combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and finally pointed out in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawing which forms a material part of this disclosure:
Fig. 1 is a side elevation of a wet mop embodying the invention.
Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation on line 2-2 of Fig. 1 showing the interior construction.
Fig. 3 is a sectional plan on line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Referring to the drawing, a complete mop which embodies the present invention consists of five elements, a mop handle 10, an annular collar 12, a plurality of mop cords 20-21, a nail 22 and a tie 23. The mop handle 10 is provided at its lower end with a taper portion 11 which is encircled by the rigid annular collar 12 which has a central aperture of the same taper-angle as the mop handle at 11. The mop material consists preferably of a plurality of cotton mop cords 20-21 which are cut to equal length, a bunch of these cords is then threaded into the aperture 1'? of collar 12 and folded over the upper end 14 of this collar at their middle portion. The mop material is then spread uniformly* around the circumference of aperture 17 and the outer face of collar 12, so that an annular layer 20 covers the outer face and a similar layer 21 covers the interior of collar 12 and both layers extend downward from said collar forming a tuft. Mop handle 10 is then driven into aperture 17 so that the taper portion 11 presses the mop cords 21 tightly against the wall of 17 whereupon the nail 22 is driven through collar 12, handle portion 11 and mop cords 21 to prevent the separation of the mop handle 10 from collar 12. The lower part of the central aperture of collar 12 is tapered outwardly and rounded at 16 to permit outward spreading of mop cords 21 and inward movement of cords 20. The upper face 14 of collar 12 is preferably flat so that a sharp edge is formed at 13 to grip the mop cords at that place. A beveled circular groove 19 is provided in collar 12 near its lower end. After stretching the mop cords 20 tightly and uniformly over the outside of collar 12 a tie wire or cord 23 is placed over mop cords 20 within groove 19 and securely tied around these cords 1931. Serial No. 567,657
and collar 12 which completes the whole mop. When the mop material is worn it is easily possible to renew the saine by removing tie wire 23 and nail 22 and replacing these elements after new mop cords are inserted.
In the above manner a very rigid and efcient wet mop is produced from only ve very simple elements which by reason of its simplicity and the small amount of labor entering into its construction can be sold for a very reasonable price.
While I have thus described this mop in its preferred form it is of course possible to vary its construction and arrangement of parts as come within the scope of the invention dened in the appended claims without departure from the spirit of the invention and the principle involved.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. In a mop, a handle having a tapered end portion, a collar having an inwardly flaring opening from its top portion to a point beyond its middle point for accommodating said tapered end portion of the handle and an outwardly naring opening forming a continuation of the inwardly aring opening, mop cords passing through said openings and between the tapered end portion of the handle and the inner wall of the inwardly flaring opening and extending and stretched over the outer surface of the collar and tied, said tapered handle portion being adapted to clamp said mop cords within said collar and the tie comprising tieing means around the lower end of said collar for holding the mop cords in tight orderly arrangement on the exterior of the collar thereabove to form a rigid knob portion,said cords being disposed in a loose orderly arrangement therebelow to form a loose tuft portion.
2. In a mop, a handle having a tapered end, a substantially cylindrical collar having an aperture inwardly tapered from its top end for accommodating the tapered end of the handle, mop cords interposed between said tapered handle end and the walls of said inwardly tapered aperture of the collar and folded over theV top end of said collar and downwardly over the exterior thereof beyond its lower end, said collar being formed with an outwardly iiaring opening forming a continuation of said inwardly haring opening and being formed with a groove around the outer periphery thereof adjacent its lower end and tieing means around said cords at a point in alignment with said peripheral groove whereby said cords are held tightly on the exterior of said collar above said groove to form a rigid knob portion, said cords depending loosely from the lower end of the collar in orderly relationship to form a tuft portion.
