Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of cleaning implements, and, more particularly, to the field of floor mops having structures for retaining a sheet thereabout
- a cleaning implement such as a floor mop
- the cleaning implement includes a handle and a cleaning head attached to the handle
- the cleaning head has at least one attachment structure for receiving and retaining a sheet about the cleaning head
- the attachment structure includes a base triangle and a plurality of substantially pie-shaped sections whose apexes meet at a substantially common point adjacent the base triangle Two sides of the base triangle and two sides of each of the pie-shaped sections are defined by slits passing through the flexible material forming the attachment structure such that the base triangle and each of the pie- shaped sections can be deflected to receive the sheet
- Fig 1 is a perspective view of a preferred floor mop made in accordance with the present invention.
- Fig 2 is a perspective view of the floor mop of Fig 1 , wherein a sheet is attached to the mop head,
- Fig 3a is a schematic perspective view of a preferred sheet suitable for use with the floor mop of Fig 1 ,
- Fig 3b is schematic plan view of the preferred sheet of Fig 3a illustrating the basis weight differences of the sheet
- Fig 3c is a photomicrograph of the preferred sheet of Fig 3a showing a textured three- dimensional surface
- Fig 4 is top view of the mop head of Fig 1 .
- Fig 5 is an enlarged partial top view of the mop head of Fig 4,
- Fig 6 is a top view of another preferred mop head made in accordance with the present invention.
- Fig 7 is a cross-sectional side view of the mop head of Fig 4 taken along line 6-6 thereof, wherein the universal joint and mop handle have been deleted for clarity, and
- Fig 8 is a perspective view of a hand duster made in accordance with the present invention.
- the present invention is, in its most preferred form, directed to a mop having a mop head with attachment structures for securing a sheet about the mop head
- the present invention is discussed herein with respect to a floor mop for purposes of simplicity and clarity, it will be understood that the present invention can be used with other types of cleaning implements having other types of cleaning heads with attachment structures for securing a sheet about the cleaning head
- the present invention can be used with other floor mops, wall and other smaller hand-held dusters, wet mops which utilize a cleaning solution, and other cleaning implements
- Figs 1 and 2 a particularly preferred floor mop 20 made in accordance with the present invention is illustrated
- the floor mop 20 comprises a mop
- the sheets described in these applications preferably comprise two components a polymeric net or scrim 27 and a fibrous material 29 which is laid upon the scrim 29, as shown schematically in Fig 3a, by lamination via heat or chemical means such as adhesives or by hydrogentanglement Scrim materials useful herein are described in detail in U S Patent No 4,636,419, which is incorporated by reference herein
- the scrims may be formed directly at the extrusion die or can be derived from extruded films by fibrillation or by embossment, followed by stretching and splitting
- the scrim may be derived from a polyolefin such as polyethylene or polypropylene, copolymers thereof, poly(butylene
- the sheets also preferably have a continuous high and discrete low basis weight regions 31 and 33, respectively, such as shown schematically in Fig 3b, and/or a three-dimensional surface, such as shown in Fig 3c, both features being more fully described in US patent application serial nos 09/082,349 and 09/082,396 While the low basis weight regions are depicted as being of essentially the same size and of a single well defined shape, these regions may be of differing sizes to facilitate entrapment of particles of varying size and shape
- the high and low basis weight regions and the three dimensionality of the surface of the sheet shown in Figs 3b and 3c assist in receiving and trapping material, such as dust and dirt, in the sheet
- the sheets can be made using either a woven or nonwoven process, or by forming operations using melted materials laid down on forms, especially in belts, and/or by forming operations involving mechanical actions/modifications carried out on films
- the structures are made by any number of methods (e g , spunbonded, meltblown, resin bonded, air-through bonded, etc ), once the essential three dimensional and basis weight requirements are known
- the preferred structures are nonwoven, and especially those formed by hydroentanglement as is well known in the art, since they provide highly desirable open structures
- heat-bonded nonwoven structures which utilize continuous filaments bonded to a base sheet via heat-sealed lines
- Materials particularly suitable for forming the fibrous material 29 of sheet 28 include, for example, natural cellulosics as well as synthetics such as polyolefins (e g , polyethylene and polypropylene), polyesters, polyamides, synthetic cellulosics (e g , RAYON®), and blends thereof Also useful are natural fibers, such as cotton or blends thereof and those derived from various cellulosic sources
- Preferred starting materials for making the hydroentangled fibrous sheets of the present invention are synthetic materials, which may be in the form of carded, spunbonded, meltblown, airlaid, or other structures
- Particularly preferred are polyesters, especially carded polyester fibers
- the degree of hydrophobicity or hydrophihcity of the fibers is optimized depending upon the desired goal of the sheet, either in terms of type of soil to be removed, the type of additive that is provided, when an additive is present, biodegradabi ty, availability, and combinations of such considerations
- the more biodegradable materials are hydrophilic
- the universal joint 26 includes a first rotational joint 30 having a shaft with an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis L of the mop head 22 and a second coplanar rotational joint 32 having a shaft with an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis L of the mop head 22 so that the handle 24 can rotate in the directions 34 and 36 as shown
- the mop head 22 also comprises an elastic member 38 which is disposed about the periphery of the mop head 22
- the elastic member 38 has a substantially flat bottom surface 40 During use, the elastic member 38 supports and tensions the sheet 28 about the mop head 22
- the handle 24 comprises three sections 24a, 24b and 24c which are threadedly interconnected with each other so that the floor mop 20 can be shipped within a carton of convenient size and later assembled for use
- the section 24a can be provided with an elastic and resilient section suitable for gripping by a user of the floor mop 20
- the mop head 22 and universal joint 26 are preferably formed from ABS type- polymers (e g
- the mop head 22 also comprises a plurality of attachment structures 42
- the attachment structures 42 are configured to receive and retain the sheet 28 about the mop head 22, as shown in Fig 2, during use
- the attachment structures 42 are preferably disposed at the corners of the mop head 22, although these locations can be varied depending upon the size and shape of the mop head 22
- the attachment structures 42 each comprise a base triangle 44 which is defined along two sides thereof by slits 46 which extend through the flexible material
- the plurality of pie-shaped sections 50 arranged about a substantially common point 54 assist in retaining the sheet 28 even when the mop 20 is moved in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the mop head 22
- the pie shaped sections 50 are adapted to retain the sheet about the mop head 22 when the mop 20 is moved in virtually any direction
- placement of the individually deflecting pie-shaped sections adjacent to one another so that their apexes 52 meet at a substantially common point 54 provides an attachment structure 42 through which it is easier for a user to insert a sheet, thereby providing better engagement of the sheet 28 with the attachment structure 42 because the sheet 28 is able to more fully engulf or surround the pie-shaped sections 50 and the base triangle 44
- a sheet 28 comprising a scrim and/or low basis weight regions as described in previously incorporated US application serial nos 09/082,349 and 09/082,396 are believed to
- FIG 8 illustrates a hand duster 120 which is suitable for dusting walls, furniture and the like
- the hand duster 120 includes an attachment structure 42 on each of the faces 60 and 62 (the attachment structure 42 is not shown for face 62) of the mop head 122 so that a sheet 28 can be retained about the mop head 122 during use
