Definitions
- the present invention relates to a mop intended to be applied to the mop holder mops.
- the housewife dives the traditional mop in water to which we previously added a detergent, it spreads the traditional mop on the floor to be cleaned and eventually it fold it up appropriately. Then she applies over the mop a traditional broom and she can start cleaning.
- the party bottom of the traditional mop which is supported on the ground becomes dirty, once the brush broom removed, turn it upside down, manually, the mop traditional in order to prolong the cleaning action, without having to immediately rinse the swab. Then, after placing the broom again over the mop, we can resume cleaning.
- the board supporting the mop consists of a flat element (configured and articulated in different ways) having dimensions in plan allowing to keep the entire mop for mop in contact with the ground and in practice dimensions roughly corresponding to those of the mop to be maintained.
- these mops In these mops the surface which is opposite to the active surface is provided of the two fins. Therefore, due to their configuration, these mops are obligatorily applied to the board which supports them, by adhering to it, by their surfaces provided with fins. In fact, the fins are fixed in a position practically parallel to the surface, at the ends of this surface, and they are directed towards each other. When, as a result of wear and tear resulting from use, the active part of the fabric is consumed, such mops should be discarded because they are no longer suitable for the purpose, even if the tissue opposite the active surface and the fins themselves are still in fair condition.
- the way the fins are attached to the mop that is to say fixed over the surface opposite the active surface, parallel to the latter and one towards the other, allows the fixing of the mop only one way on the plane of the support board, without possibility of upside down inversion of the mop.
- Such a way of arranging the fins on the mop is imposed by the insertion of these fins, without having to fold them down, between the clips of the plan. Because the fins should not be bent and to facilitate their insertion under the clamps, it is advantageous to make them in a semi-rigid or much less flexible material by relative to the tissue plane to which they are attached. But the need to use such semi-rigid material, not very flexible or of a certain thickness causes the drawback to have to use, during the manufacture of the mop and in particular during the phase for attaching the fins to the flat piece of fabric, machines and more particularly sewing machines suitably sized for this purpose.
- This mop allows you to use the two surfaces of a single and same mop which have different structures adapted to two necessities which saves the user from having to go near the cart or the reserve for replacement mops.
- the mop according to the present invention makes it possible to obtain, in addition to a reduction in the number of operator trips, optimal use of materials because when one of the two active surfaces of the mop is worn out, can also use the opposite surface which can be made so as to be also active.
- the two active surfaces are in fact served by a unique pair of fins.
- the mop according to the present invention in which the fins are in the extension, with the same position, of the surface of the mop allows the use of traditional mops on the market by folding them over and sewing them to form a bundle.
- the mop according to the present invention thus obtained from of the traditional mop, allows to use its two surfaces, it no longer requires use of the broom and it no longer requires handling with the hands from the operator for replacement and for spinning.
- the mop as well obtained from traditional mops actually behaves like a real mop for broom to equip the support board with a broom. There is no question that in the latter case we obtain a considerable economic advantage from the fact that we realizes a mop for broom starting from traditional mops existing on the relatively low cost.
- the invention also avoids the significant drawbacks due to sewing difficult to attach the fins to the fabric surface of the mop for broom.
- the invention consists of a mop for broom intended to be applied to a board supporting the mops, comprising a pair of fins, a piece of fabric for cleaning floors, the edges of which are made integral with the fins in order to fix the mop to the support board, the fins being fixed, on this mop, symmetrically with respect to the two surfaces of the fabric, in the extension and in the same position as these surfaces. In this way, this mop can be used for cleaning using both surfaces of the piece of fabric.
- the fixing the fins of the mop to the structure supporting this mop allows, by following their particular attachment, in a symmetrical manner, in relation to the two surfaces, the use, at various times, of the two sides of the fabric and this simply by turning the mop over 180 °.
- the fins can be folded down on either side to engage with the clips carried by the board.
- the invention advantageously uses, for the production of the fins, a material reasonably flexible, can be folded on both sides and also facilitates sewing operations necessary for their attachment to the flat piece of fabric of the swab.
- Another advantage is due to the fact that it is possible to use, for the fins, a rather rigid material, by performing, in this case, the fold of the end directly on the mop.
- the invention makes it possible to use the mops according to the present invention also with support boards whose length is different from that which is generally standardized for above-mentioned flat pieces of fabric.
- the folding of the ends for the application of the mop on the broom support board can be made either on the fins or directly on the active piece of flat fabric in case the support board is more short than expected.
- the fins are advantageously fixed in the extension of the piece of flat fabric and in the same position. This allows, if the flat piece of fabric is made in all in an active material, to be able to use both surfaces.
- the fins are arranged in the extension of the flat piece of fabric and that it has its two active surfaces made in different materials.
- each of the two active surfaces can be used for one of two different cleaning requirements. This translates into more employment convenient and more economical compared to current mops. In fact it is enough turn the mop upside down to have an active surface suitable for a specific task depending on the material of which it is made. We save in in this case one of the two mops that would be used if the mops were made of materials different.
- Another advantage obtained is the saving of time during manufacturing which requires fewer side seams if a piece of single fabric folded longitudinally.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a support board for brushes cotton existing on the market, provided at its ends with clamping devices fins connected to the mop to be maintained.
- Figure 2 is a plan view of a portion of a floor cloth existing on the market and whose fins are sewn on the end of the upper surface (carrier) of the mop.
- the flexible material fin is in a position parallel to the surface of the mop and its liftable part is turned towards the central area of this surface.
- the fin is provided with two eyelets which help to improve the grip of the fin by the clamping devices provided on the cotton broom board.
- Figure 3 is a view corresponding to that of Figure 2 with the only difference that the fin is devoid of eyelets.
- Figure 4 is a perspective view of a portion of an existing cotton broom on the market where you can see the mop mounted on the support board with its associated fin inserted below the fin clamping device against the board carried by the brush, the clamping device being in the open position.
- Figure 5 is a view corresponding to that of Figure 4 but with the clamping device placed in an intermediate position between the open position and the closed position, this view revealing practically all of the fin connected to the swab.
- the fin is provided with eyelets.
- Figure 6 is a view corresponding to that of Figure 5 with the only difference that the fin is devoid of eyelets.
- Figure 7 is a plan view of a portion of a mop according to the present invention in which the fin connected to the end of the mop is not located above the surface of the mop but outside, in line with it, in the same position as the mop.
- the fin is not predisposed so to be foldable in a predetermined direction and it can be folded in one any of the two possible meanings.
- the fin in question is provided with eyelets.
- Figure 8 is a plan view corresponding to that of Figure 7 only difference that the fin is devoid of eyelets.
- Figure 9 is a perspective view of a portion of a cotton broom showing the mop according to the present invention mounted on the support board with its associated fin inserted below the clamping device, this clamping device being in the open position. Before its insertion, that is to say in the resting state, the fin is located in the extension of the surface of the mop and in the same position as this surface.
- Figure 10 is a plan view corresponding to that of Figure 9 but with the clamping device placed in an intermediate position between the open position and the closed position, this view revealing practically all of the fin connected to the mop.
- the fin is provided with eyelets.
- Figure 11 is a plan view corresponding to that of Figure 10 only difference that the fin is devoid of eyelets.
- Figure 12 is a schematic plan view of a mop along the present invention.
- the fins connected to the ends of the mop are not at inside, above the mop, and they occupy the same position as this one.
- the fins are provided with eyelets.
- Figure 13 is a schematic side view of the mop shown in the figure 12. It should be noted that in this case the mop includes two planes separate so as to thus present two different useful surfaces and in such a way that the fins arranged at the ends are between the two planes.
- the subjects of the two planes can be of various natures and they can also be carried out with various warnings.
- Figure 14 is a view of a portion of the mop shown in Figure 13 mounted on a portion of a support board.
- the mop is applied against the support board by the surface of one of the two planes and the fin turned over on the support board is folded down.
- Figure 15 is a view of a portion of the mop corresponding to that shown in Figure 13, mounted on a portion of a support board. It suits note that the mop is applied to the support board by the surface of the plan opposite to that shown in Figure 14 and that the fin turned over on the board support is folded up and therefore opposite to the folding shown in figure 14.
- Figure 16 is a plan view of a traditional mop existing on the market and provided with a peripheral hem.
- Figure 17 is a side view of the traditional mop shown on Figure 16, while Figure 18 is a view corresponding to that of Figure 17 but in the case where the traditional mop has an initial fold in the center.
- Figure 19 is a plan view of a mop according to the present invention using a traditional market mop folded in half.
