SCRUB-BBUSH AND WINDOW- CLEANER.
. Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 12, 1M8.
Applicationfiled May 23, 1912, Serial no; 699.290. Renewed. January 18, 1917'. serial No. 143,188.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, PETER J. KnssLER, Jns'rron V Coornn, and Josnrrr P. Knssnnn, citizens of the United States, residing at Toledo, in the county of Lucas and State of Ohio, have invented new and useful 11nprovements in Scrub-Brushes and Window- Cleaners, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to scrub brushes and more particularly to the class of scrub brushes which are provided with mop attachments.
An object of this invention is to provide a scrub brush which has a mop cooperating therewith and which is provided with meanS for wringing said mop when occasion requires.
Another object of this invention is to provide a brush of the above character which has positioned thereon 'means'for drying windows, the said means comprising an elongated strip of felt, rubber or leather secured to the upper side of the brush and projecting over the edge quite a distance whereby it may be easily manipulated.
This invention also contemplates the use of a window washing device which can be substituted, in place of the brush. and mop when occasion requires;
With the foregoing and other objects in view, our invention relates to such details of construction and in the arrangement and combination of the several parts as will be hereinafter fullydescribed and specifically pointed out in the appended claims.
In describing our invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views and in which,
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the device showing the mop removed therefrom.
Fi 2 is a detail view in ers oective of the carrier for the cleaning elements.
Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the device showing the mop in position.
Fig. l is a perspective view of the window washing device.
Fig. 5 is a perspective view of a mop holder. 1
In the accompanying drawings which fully illustrate the preferred and modified form of our invention, numeral 1 is applied to a cleaning element such as a scrub brush which has projecting therefrom bunches of bristles 2. The base of the brush is shown in the drawings as substantially elongated and the long sides are provided with recesses which receive the inturned ends of the metallic carrier a It is readily obvious that the brush can be easily removed from the carrier, it being simply held in slidable engagement therewith.
Positioned upon the carrier a and preferably near the center thereof is a bracket 5 which is substantially V shaped in cross section, it having one side secured to the carrier as shown at 6,'while the other is provided with the eccentric slot 7. The handle 8 has pivotal connection with the upstanding portion of the bracket 5 as shown at 9 and is provided intermediate its ends with a s *rew threaded pin 10 which operates in the eccentric slot 7 and which has operable thereon a thumb nut 11 whereby the handle may be held in different positions in relation to the brush.
For the purpose of supporting a substantially elongated strip 12 we provide upon the carrier at a plate 13, extending beyond one margin of the carrier which hasin engagement therewith a second plate 14: through the medium of thumb nuts 15. The strip 12 is preferably leather, rubber or the like and protrudes beyond plates 13 and Li laterally of the carrier for the purpose of drying the windows. It is apparent that,
termediate'its ends to form loops 25 and has its extremities bent back upon the body portion as shown at 26. The loops are adapted to engage the hooks while the bent ends grip the swab as clearly shown in Fig. 3. By this arrangement it is obvious that the swab can be easily attached or detached to or from the brush when occasion requires. The hook 18 has connection with a handle 19 which handle is revolubly supported in relation to the handle 8 through the medium of the suspension brackets 20. Simultaneous with the rotation of the handle 19, the mop or swab 17 will be twisted so that it will be relieved from the majority of the water held therein. It is to be noted that the hooks 16 for supporting the map structure and securing one end thereof in connection with carrier 4: are disposed under resilient strip 12. When this device is used as a mop, the strip 12 serves as a buffer and prevents the hook from marring base boards or other trim in close proximity to the floor, inasmuch as they are disposed at the side of the plane of the working face of strip 12, next adjacent the carrier 4.
The fact that the brush can be used alone or that it may be provided at any time with a mop or swab will be readily appreciated from the drawings. By running the swab or mop over the bristles of the brush instead of over a hard structure, it is thought that the Wear upon the same will be obviated to a certain extent. I
In Fig. 4- we have illustrated another form of cleaning dev ce such as a window washer which can be inserted in the carrier a after the brush has been removed. This device comprises a body portion 21 which as shown in the drawings is substantially whereby they may be used for the purpose of drying the windows. This insert or wlndow washer device shown 1n Fig. 4L may be substituted for the insert or brush shown in Fig. 3 when .a mop is to be used, if a more rigid backing for the mop is desired than would be provided for by the bristles 2.
Also, either insert may be removed and re-' placed by the other, by merely placing sufficient slack in the mop 17 as to permit the withdrawal of one insert laterally of the carrier and the replacing of the other in sert. Thereafter, by manipulation of handle 19, the mop may be drawn into contact with the insert at various degrees of pressure.
Gopiesoi. this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patenta ciated.
From the foregoing disclosure it is thought that the advantages and novel features of theinvention will be fully appre- WVe desire it to be understood that we may make slight changes in the construction and: in the arrangement and combinationrof the several parts, provided such changes fall within the scope of the subjoined claims.
We claim 1. In a cleaning device of the character.
ter, said last mentioned means lyingbeneath said drying strip and in a plane inside of the plane of. the working face of said strip and of the outer edge of the support for said strip whereby said mop connecting means is protected to prevent its contact with adjacent objects during the operation of the mop. 7
2.111 a, cleaning device of the character descrlbed, the combination of a carrier, a
drying strip of resilient material, means for supporting said drying strip from said carrier to project laterally therefrom, a mop, and hooks secured to and projecting laterally from one edge of said carrier for con necting said mop therewith, said hooks lying beneath said drying strip and in a plane inside of the plane of the working face of said strip and of the outer edge of its support next adjacent said carrier, whereby said mop conecting hooks are protected to prevent their contacting with adjacent objects.
