CLOTH OR MOP HOLDER Fi led Dec. 28, 1954 Inventor (Zr/$7 M'm 'r Attomey Patented Sept. 17, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2 Claims.
This invention relates to a device for holding a cloth or mop when washing dishes, floors, and the like, the general object of the invention being to provide a handle having a head and a slidable yoke member carried by the head for gripping a cloth between its might and an end of the head.
This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing and specifically pointed out in the appended claims.
In describing the invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawing wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which:
Fig. 1 is a side view of the invention.
Fig. 2 is an edge view thereof.
Fig. 3 is a section on line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is an end view of the head.
Fig. 5 is a section on line 5--5 of Fig. 2.
In this drawing, the numeral I indicates the handle and the numeral 2 indicates a head formed on the handle but of substantially rectangular shape. The head has a longitudinally extending slot 3 therein which extends from one side edge to the other side edge and said head is formed with a groove 4 which passes through the free end and along the side edges where its ends communicate with the slot. A yoke or U-shaped member 5 has its limbs engaging the side portions of the groove and extending into the side portions of the slot, and said member is slidably supported on the head by the staples 6 which are driven into the side edges of the head. Each limb has an eye I at its free end through which a bolt 8 passes, the bolt also passing through the slot 3 with a wing nut 9 placed on the threaded end of the bolt and washers ID are placed between the side edges of the head and the eyes I.
Thus, it will be seen that by loosening the nut,
the yoke or U-shaped member can be adjusted towards and away from the head when sliding the bolt in the slot 3 and when in adjusted position the nut is tightened to hold the yoke in adjusted position.
As will be understood, a cloth has a portion placed between the bight of the yoke and the free end of the head. Then, the yoke is adjusted to clamp the cloth in place. This device can be used for washing dishes or by making it larger, it can be used as a floor or other mop.
It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of the invention will be readily apparent.
It is to be understood that changes may be made in the construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claims.
' I claim:
1. A device of the class described comprising a handle, a head formed at one end of the handle and having a slot therein extending from one side edge through the other, a yoke having its limbs slidably supported from the side edges of the head, a bolt passing through the slot and the portions of the ends of the limbs of the yoke, and a nut on the bolt.
2. A device of the class described comprising a handle, a head formed at one end of the handle and having a longitudinally extending slot therein passing from one side edge through the other, the end edge and portions of the side edges being grooved, a yoke having its limbs fitting in the side grooves, eye members carried by the side edges of the head and through which the limbs of the yoke pass, said limbs having eyes at the free ends, and a bolt passing through the eyes and. through the slot and having a nut on its outer end to fasten the yoke in position.
CHRIST WIEMER.
