A handle jock which may be easily released by a natural movement 0? thef hand of an operator when., he hand e l an l to r ve jfrom its parked to. an operating position.
Other objects and advantages of the ;invention will beapparent from a consideration of the following specifigation tal en in co njunctionwith; the acco np anying drawings, of which there are two sheets and wherein:

rear wheels I2 and axle 22. lying next to the link 50 and having its lower take place.
The link 56 is free to pivot on the axle 22. With the parts arranged as illustrated in Fig. 2, the keeper ea cooperates with the pin 46 under the influence of' spring 24 to lock the handle against pivotal movement relative to the cleaner in order to permit the cleaner to be picked up by 4 means of the handle 18 with the parts arranged as illustratedin Fig. 1. I
By depressing the rear end of the cleaner, for example by pushin downwardly on the handle l8, the spring leaves or members 24 will yield sufiiciently so as to permit the pin or latch 46, to move downwardly relative to the keeper 48 sufficient to clear the end 66 thereof, whereupon the handle may be pivoted backwardly to its operating position.
A stop 58 formed on the link 56' cooperates with a stop formed by the under surface of a locking plate 66 to limit the downward movement of the rear end of the cleaner 26 relative to the Another link 62 end pivoted on the axle 22 is provided with a latch'64 which is adapted to engage a stop formed by the upper surface of the locking plate 66 when the rear end 26- of the cleaner is depressed for locking the rear 'end 26 of the cleaner against 7 vertical movement relative to the rear wheels l2 and the axle 22. r r
The link 62 is biased by a spring 66 into the position illustrated in Fi 3 so that as soon as the latch 64 clears the upper surface of the looking plate 66 the spring 66 will move the link 62 to the position illustrated in Fig. 2, provided that thepin 36 moves due to the pivotal movement of the handle sufiiciently to permit this action to The upper end of the link 62 is bifurcated to form a fork '68 which is adapted to accommodate the pin 46 afterdisengagement thereof from the keeper 48 and duringthe initial pivotal movement of the handle 16 in a clockwise direction from the'position illustrated in Fig. '2. In fact, the arms of the fork 66 are so positioned relative to the pin 46 and the'keeper 48 that the handle l8 cannot be moved to its operating position without engaging the latch 64 with the locking plate 66 asillustrated in Fig; 3. As the fork 68 is open at the top, further pivotal movement of the handle is provided. for, and when the handle is restored to its parkednposition the pin 46 will enter the fork 68 and shift the same so as 'to disengage the latch 64 from the locking plate 66.
mouth l6 of the nozzle will be properly-positioned relative to the surface covering on which the cleanerissupported. r
