Definitions
- My invention relates to receptacles especially tins for liquid or semi-liquid floor-pol ishing substances of waxy or oily nature, and more particularly to a tin, for use in working connection with a stick or handle'provided with a mop or brush as usually employed for floor polishing purposes.
- the chief object of the present invention is to remedy the defects of the receptacles hitherto used in supporting connection with a mop stick, and with this object in view so construct the receptacle or tin as to en? sure momentary discharges of polishing subdischarged from the re- I ing upon Consecan be utilized for causing small portions of the polishing substance to be automatically discharged from the receptacle at will, provided that suitable means are provided in connection with the latter for the purpose 1n view.
- the amount of polishing liquid to be discharged at a time may be very small dependthe construction and adjustment of the means provided for the discharging purpose, but by simply repeating the usual manipulation of raising the mop from the floor and subsequently dropping the same onto the floor with a certain vehemence and shock, the
- quantity of polishing liquid to be discharged to the floor can be increased at will to any desirable amount, just as required by the condition of the floor.
- a receptacle or tin constructed in accord- 'ance with the present invention and adapted for use in connection with the handle or stick of a mop or the like comprises a spring con trolled valve and a valve seat or opening provided preferably in the bottom of the receptacle or tin. If required or preferred, even a plurality of valves, springs and valve seats or openings may be provided in or near the bottom of the tin or at any other suitable place of the walls of the latter.
- the discharging valve is mounted in the tin in a manner that on sudden lifting the mop from the floor and subsequently lowering or dropping the same with a sudden push, as usually done in handlinga mop with a stick for floor-pol ishing purposes, the valve provided in the tin I firmly attached to the mop-stick, will open lot the polishing liquid to flow out, whereupon the spring controlling the valve, will immediately act to return the valve to its seat so that liquid can never be discharged at once in g excess of what the valve is adjusted to allow to flow out, whereas by repeated manipulations any desirable larger amount of liquid can be discharged.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a floor polishing implement and Figure 2 is a view in vertical section of a tin provided with means herein referred to in accordance with the present invention.
- the floor polishing implement shown in Figure 1 comprises, as usually, a mop a, a handle or stick b firmly attached to the mop by means of a tubular extension or sleeve of the latter and a wing screw 0, and a recep- 25 taclc or tin d containing the polishing liquid and also rigidly connected to the-handle b by means of a sleeve or clip e and a pair of wing screws f and 7.
- the implement shown and so far described may be supposed to be of 313 known construction.
- the receptacle or tin d is provided with a cover 9 as usually. lln the bottom of the tin an aperture h is provided and circumferentially reinforced by means of a washer or ring it soldered to the outer surface of the bottom and constituting the seat of the valve i of globular form. Obviously the reinforcing ring or annular plate k may be dispensed with, if the bottom of the tin is of adequate thickness or strength to afl'ord in itself a reliable means forthe provision of the valve seat.
- a bracket l is firmly attached either by soldering or in any other appropriate way, and a coiled spring is is provided in the tin to connect, with a moderate tension, the bracket Z with the ball valve i, a hook or the like being provided in the valve for the connecting purpose.
- a reinforcing plate may be inserted between the bracket and thewall of the tin, as shown, and the same may be firmly connected to the contiguous parts by soldering or in any other suitable manner.
- valve aperture a plurality of similar valves and apertures may be provided, as already mentioned herein.
- a handle adapted to manipulate a floor-polishing element, a closed receptacle attached to the handle for containing a liquid or floor polishing substance and the like the bottom of the receptacle being provided with an aperture forming a valve seat on the outer surface of the body, a valve body associated with the valve seat. and a coil sprm connected to the valve body and arrange through the aperture and having its inner end connected to the inner surface of the receptacle near the top of the latter and acting to yieldingly connect the valve body to the receptacle.
