WHITE WOLF M. HICKEY, OF SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA.
MOP-WRINGER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. '7I4,374, dated November 25, 1902.
Application filed July 28,1902- fierial No. 117,241- (No model.)
a To aZZ whom it may concern: I
Be it known that LWHITE WOLF M.HIKEY,
v a citizen of the United States, residing in the city and county of San Francisco, State of a California, have invented an Improvement in Mop -Wringers; and I hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
My invention relates to improvements in mops; and its object is to provide a simple labor-saving device for wringing the mop-cloth.
It consists ofa handle having suitable clamp means to engage theends of the folded mopcloth, a sleeve slidable on the handle, means for locking the sleeve thereon, a bevel-gear loosely turnable on said sleeve, a rectangular frame carried by said bevel-gear and having its end inclosed by the cloth, and means upon the sleeve by which the said gear and frame may be rotated about the handle as an axis.
Having reference to the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 shows a front View of wringer, partially broken away. Fig. 2 shows t t a side View of Wringer, partially broken away. 5
Fig. 3 shows a section through sleeve and bevel-gear.
A represents a mop-handle having suitable clamp means 2 at one end for the engagement of the ends of a centrally-folded mop-cloth 3.
A sleeve 4 is slidable onthe handle and is adapted to be locked at any desired point thereon by means of a cam-lever 5.
A bevel-gear 6 is loosely turnable on the sleeve and carries a rectangular frame '7,
whose outer end passes through the fold of the mop-cloth.
The sides of the frame are slidable in a i guide or cross-head 8, turnable on the mop- I head.
9 is a bevel-gear journaled on the sleeve and meshing with gear 6 and having a crank 10,
by which it may be turned.
In operation the mop-cloth is extended, as shown in Fig. 1, by sliding the sleeve carrying the frame toward the mop-head,-and the sleeve is locked rigid on the handle by means of thelever-clamp 5. By turning crank 10 I i the frame is revolved, andas the mop-head end of the cloth remains stationary the cloth is twisted'to wring out the water. The crank is then turned in the opposite direction to bring the frame and cloth into the same plane,
the lever 5 released, the sleeve slid upward on the handle to bring the end of the frame against the, clamp 2, and the lever 5 again locked, whereupon the cloth is loosened and placed in condition to be used as a mop.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A mop-wringer including a non-rotating handle; clamping means at one end thereof adapted to engage one end of the mop-cloth; a sleeve slidable upon the handle; a gear loosely turnable upon and carried by the sleeve; means carried upon the sleeve by Which the gear-is rotated; a rectangular frame fixed to said gear and adapted tobe projected beyond the head end of the handle and to engage the other end of the mop-cloth; a camlever carried by and operating through the sleeve for locking the latter to the handle, said lever serving to release the sleeve from its locked position to allow the sleeve and the frame to be rotated relative to the handle and mop-head.
2. A mop-wringer consisting of a non-rotatable handle; a clamp fixed to one end thereof; a centrally-fold ed mop-cloth the ends of which are brought together and held by said clamp; a cross-head turnable on the mop-head, a sleeve slidable on the handle, provided with a loosely-mounted gear, an engaging gear and a cam-lever said lever operating through the sleeve to engage the handle and lock the sleeve thereto, and to release the sleeve from its locked position; a rectangular frame fiixed to the loose gear and having its sides slidable through the ends of the cross-head, and extending along each edge of the mop-cloth, said frame to be projected beyond the end of the handle and mop-head, and means for rotating the frame and cross-head relative to the handle.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand.
