Patent

CA 2286368

A mop is provided which has an elongate handle (3), a mop head (5), for carrying a squeezable sponge-like pad mop material (13). The mop has arm means (27, 29, 37, 39) which can be moved to effect squeezing of the mop material (13). The mop has a two axis swivel connector (7) which has two mutually perpendicular axis (57 and 59). The arrangement is such that the mop head (5) can be swung to various angular orientations relative to the handle (3) and at the same time, the mop permits a two axis swivel connection and means to effect squeezing of the mop material (13). The mop also has the head provided with strengthening webs which resist torsional movement of the mop head as a consequence of squeezing of the mop material. The swivel connector (7) has a plate like part (73) with an axle (77) which defines axis (57). It also has a central opening (75) which defines an axis (59). Axis (59) is, in turn, provided by an axle (101) on another part (99). Part (99) can mate with another part (85). Parts (85 and 99) form a tubular body with an internal screw thread. A collar (89) can be fitted over the external surfaces of the tubular body containing the screw thread (87). When the handle (3) is screw threaded into the screw thread of the body it radially expands the body tending to force it into tight engagement with the collar (89) and this, in turn, holds the assembly together.

L'invention concerne un balai à laver comprenant un manche allongé (3) et une tête (5), qui porte un matériau pour laver comportant une garniture de type éponge que l'on peut presser (13). Le balai comporte un système de bras (27, 29, 37, 39), que l'on peut déplacer afin de presser le matériau pour laver (13), et un raccord pivotant (7) avec deux axes perpendiculaires (57, 59). Selon la structure, la tête (5) du balai peut pivoter de façon à prendre diverses orientations angulaires par rapport au manche (3), et le balai comporte un raccord pivotant à deux axes et un système permettant de presser le matériau pour laver (13). La tête comporte des bandes de renforcement qui résistent au mouvement de torsion quand on presse le matériau pour laver. Le raccord pivotant (7) comprend une partie plane (73) qui comporte une tige pivot (77) définissant un axe (57), ainsi qu'un orifice central (75) définissant un autre axe (59). L'axe (59) est lui-même représenté par une tige pivot (101) disposée sur une autre partie (99). La partie (99) peut s'apparier avec une autre partie (85). Les parties (85) et (99) forment un corps tubulaire présentant un filetage interne. Un collier (89) peut être placé sur les surfaces externes du corps tubulaire présentant le filetage (87). Quand le manche (3) est vissé dans le filetage du corps, il écarte radialement ce dernier et tend à le pousser en contact serré avec le collier (89), ce qui maintient l'ensemble.
