SCRUB BUCKET ATTACHMENT Filed Aug. 17, 1953 Fig. 3 r 22 Elizabeth 6. Edwards 1 I INVENTOR. 2/; I
i l 23 BY A 406;.
United States Patent Office 2,757,405 Patented Aug. 7, 1956 SCRUB BUCKET ATTACHMENT Elizabeth G. Edwards, Philadelphia, Pa. Application August 17, 1953, Serial No. 374,651 2 Claims. (Cl. IS -264) The present invention relates generally to scrub buckets and has for its primary object to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, an attachment comprising a novel construction and arrangement whereby a multiplicity of the usual cleaning supplies and accessories such, for instance, as soap, powder, brushes, rags, etc, may be readily mounted on a scrub bucket f 1r convenient use.
Another very important object of the invention is to provide an attachment of the aforementioned character which comprises means for protecting the floor on which the scrub bucket may be placed.
Still another important object of the invention is to provide an attachment of the character described which may be readily adjusted for mounting 011 scrub buckets of various sizes.
Other objects of the invention are to provide a pocket attachment for scrub buckets which will be comparatively simple in construction, strong, durable, compact, light in weight, and which may be manufactured at low cost.
All of the foregoing and still further objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from a study of the following specification, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing wherein like characters of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, and wherein:
Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a scrub bucket having mounted thereon an attachment embodying the present invention;
Figure 2 is a fragmentary view in vertical section therethrough;
Figure 3 is a bottom plan View of the device with a portion of the base or pad broken away;
Figure 4 is a fragmentary view in horizontal section, taken substantially on the line 44 of Figure 1; and
Figure 5 is a detail view in perspective of one of the extensible rod connections.
Referring now to the drawing in detail, it Will be seen that the embodiment of the invention which has been illustrated comprises a circular base or pad which is designated generally by reference character 10. The pad may be of any appropriate thickness and diameter. In the construction which has been shown, the pad or base 10 comprises a disc 11 of sponge rubber having molded therein a peripheral wire ring 12. Mounted in the ring 12 and also molded in the sponge rubber disc 11 is a wire mesh reinforcing disc 13.
Mounted at spaced points on the peripheral portion of the pad or base 10 are pairs of wire rods 14. As shown to advantage in Figure 5 of the drawing, the rods 14 are longitudinally extensible and comprise inner and outer sections 15 and 16 respectively, which are slidably connected, as at 17. The sections 15 of the rods 14 have one end pivotally connected at 18 to the ring 12 of the pad or base 11. At their outer ends the sections 16 of the rods 14 terminate in hooks 19 which are engageable over the top of a conventional scrub bucket or pail Ztl. Incidentally, it may be well to here state that the pad or base 10 is to receive the bucket 20 thereon.
Each of the pairs of rods 14 has mounted thereon an open pocket 21 of fabric or other suitable material. The pockets 21 are vertically elongated and each comprises a front 22 and a relatively high inner or back wall 23. The vertical marginal portions of the front and rear Walls 22 and 23 of the pockets 21 are stitched as at 24 to provide hems or loops 25 which accommodate the rods 14 for mounting said pockets thereon.
It is thought that the manner in which the attachment is used will be readily apparent from a consideration of the foregoing. Briefly, the scrub bucket 29 is positioned on the pad or base lit. The pairs of longitudinally adjustable rods 14, with the pockets 21 thereon, are then swung upwardly and extended or contracted as may be necessary to engage the books 19 over the top of the bucket for firmly mounting the device thereon. It will thus be seen that a multiplicity of pockets 21 have been provided at circumferentially spaced points around the bucket 29 for the reception of scrubbing supplies and accessories. Further, the pad or base 1% functions as a protector for the floor or other surface on which the bucket may be placed.
It is believed that the many advantages of a scrub bucket attachment in accordance with the present invention will be readily understood and although a preferred embodiment of the device is as illustrated and described, it is to be understood that changes in the details of construction may be resorted to which will fall within the scope of the invention as claimed.
What is claimed is:
l. A scrub bucket attachment of the character described comprising a circular base adapted to receive a bucket thereon, pairs of longitudinally extensible rods having one end pivotally connected to the peripheral portion of the base, each of said rods including a pair of slidably connected sections, books on the free ends of the rods engageable over the top of the bucket for mounting the attachment thereon, and flexible pockets mounted on the pairs of rods, said pockets including loops on the vertical marginal portions thereof slidably accommodating the rods for mounting said pockets thereon.
2. A scrub bucket attachment of the character described comprising a resilient circular base for receiving a bucket thereon, said base including a sponge rubber disc and a wire ring embedded in the peripheral portion of said disc, said base further including a wire mesh mounted in the ring and embedded in the disc, pairs of rods having one end pivotally connected to the ring, books on the free ends of said rods engageable over the top of the bucket for mounting the attachment thereon, and a pocket mounted on each of the pairs of rods.
