Definitions
- FIG. 1 An exemplary embodiment of an apparatus made according to the invention is illustrated in FIG. 1 and is seen to comprise a base, generally designated 10, which pivotally mounts at 12 a yoke 14.
- a cable drum 16 Rotatably mounted in turn on the yoke 14 is a cable drum 16 of known type which contains a supply of an elongated cable 18 which may be typically in the form of a tightly coiled spring several feet in length and which has a helical groove 19 between convolutions of the spring.
- One end of the cable 18 is connected to a cleaning tool 20 of known construction.
- a second roller 48 is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 28 in such a manner that the cable 18 may be located between the nip formed by the rollers 44 and 48.
- the roller 48 is located about the periphery of the cable 18 about 180 from the roller 44.
- the roller 48 is mounted for rotation on the mounting plate 28 by means of a boss arrangement, generally designated 50 secured to the plate 28 and which is similar to the boss arrangement 32 mounting the handle 36 except that the roller 48 is mounted directly on the boss 50.
- both of the rollers 44 and 48 have a generally smooth cable engaging surface for engaging the periphery of the cable and which do not have abrupt edges or ridges capable of drivingly engaging the helical groove 19 of the cable 18.
