- Each of the fastening members 85 is fixedly secured to the respective abutment surfaces 66 and 67 as by adhesive material 80 or an equivalent thereof.
- Each of the fastening members is positioned against both the abutment surfaces 66 and 67 and extends substantially entirely across the mop head 60 to fill substantially the entire recessed area 65.
- each of the fastening members 95 is in the form of a strip and mounted and held on the cloth 9% by means of stitching 96 extending substantially around the periphery of each of the fastening members 95. The distance between the fastening members 95 is sufficient so that each of the fastening members 95 will mate with a corresponding one of the fastening members 85 fixedly adhered to the mop head 60.
- the fastening member 85 may consist of a large number of closely spaced interengageable hooking elements in the form of hooks and the fastening member 95 may consist of a large number of closely spaced interengageable hooking elements in the form of loops.
- the VELCRO fastening device is such that when the hooking elements are pressed together, they become firmly secured one to the other and require substantial pressure to pull them apart.
- the VELCRO material is easily disengaged if one member is peeled from the other.
- the fastening members 95 fixedly adhered to the cloth 90 are of substantially the same longitudinal dimension as the fastening members 85 fixedly adhered to the mop head 60 and are positioned with their longitudinal dimensions parallel, as are the members 85.
- the fastening members 85 fixedly secured to the mop head 60 are wider than the corresponding fastening members 95 on the cloth 90, for a purpose hereinafter explained.
- the longitudinal and transverse extents of the fastening members 85 and 95 illustrated herein are the preferred embodiments; however, other sizes and shapes of fastening devices are well within the intended scope of the present invention.
- the cloth 90 may be used alone as a dust cloth or in combination with the mop head 60 to pro-. vide a dust mop construction 50.
- the cloth 90 When the cloth 90 is detached it may be used to dust furniture and the like as any other dust cloth, the shag or nap 93 providing a very good dusting surface.
- the cloth 90 When it is desired to convert the cloth 90 into a dust mop 50, the cloth 90 is positioned on a surface such as the floor with the shag or nap 93 positioned downwardly and the fastening members 95 facing upwardlyl
- the mop head 60 is positioned over the cloth 90 so that the fastening members 85 in the recesses 65 are aligned with the fastening members 95 on the top or back surface 91 of the cloth 90.
- the mop head 60 is.
- the cloth 90 extends beyond the mop head 60, it is the area under the mop head which providesthe cleaning action as it is the comparitively large mop head 60 which transmits the force applied through the mop handle 75 to the cloth 90.
- the advantage of having the fastening members 85 wider than the fastening members 95 is that there is less difficulty in aligning the mop head 60 with the cloth 90 when the cloth is positioned on the floor or other support surface prior to being mounted on the mop head 60.
- Removal of the cloth 90 is easily performed by holding the'cloth 90 against the floor such as by standing on the marginal portion of the cloth extending beyond the periphery of the mop head 60 and peeling or pulling the mop head 60 away from the dust cloth 90 in an upward motion.
- a fastening device such as VELCRO
- the above described peeling action will easily disengage the cloth 90 from the mop head 60, whereas applying a force to the mop head 60 away from the cloth 90 and normal thereto will make separation of the cloth 90 from the mop head 60 more difficult.
- the cloth 90 may be removed from the mop head without the user touching the dusting surface in the manner hereinbefore set out and thereafter placed into a container for cleaning purposes.
- the above-described construction has particular applicability for hospital use but is clearly applicable for home or industrial uses as well.
