Description
3LZ:S79S5 The present invention relates to a squeegee device for cleaning purposes and particularly to a flexible squeegee device suitable Lor use in cleaning flat as well as curved surfaces.
Common squeegee type cleaning devices consist of an elongated rubber-like strip member mounted on a frame and a hand]e is, in turn, mounted perpendicu:Lar to the centre of the frame to form a T-shaped structure. Such squeegee devices are efEective for cleaning a flat surface, for example, a window pane. Llowever, it is not su:itable for cleaning curved surfaces such as modern automobile windows and/or automobile body. Furthermore, such cleaning devices can only operate in the direction along the axis of the handle. In use, the operator grips the handle and presses the strip member on the flat surface to be cleaned and slides the strip member over the surface towards the end of the handle. Thus, the cleaning operation is achieved in each single pulling action only.
Some squeegee devices provide a pressure joint such as a ball joint between the handle and the strip frame so that the strip member can be rotated to a position in any angle relative to the handle. Such squeegee devices can be operated in the pull--in direction as described above as well as in a side-by-side sweeping motion over the surface to be cleaned. However, such known squeegee devices suffer the main drawback that the joint between the strip member mounting frame and the handle is not rugged. After using them for a relatively short period of time, the joint would become loosen beyond repair and become freely rotatable or merely become broken due to the high twisting force exerted at the joint during use.
5~55 The principal object of the present i.nvention is to provide a squeegee device having a strong rugged joi.nt between the blade assembly frame and the handle and yet provides the flexibility to vary the:ir relative position for cleaning in a pull-in action as well as a side-by-side sweeping action.
Another object of the present i.nvention is to provide a squeegee device whi.ch has a flexib:Le blade assembly operative for clean:ing :Elat as wel:L as curved sur:Eaces.
It :is another object oE the present inventioll to provide a squeegee device in which the position of the mounting coupling between the handle and the blade assem-bly can be selectively adjustable to any position along the blade assembly.
It is yet another object of the present invention to : provi.de a squeegee device which can be disassembled readily for parts displacement or storage.
The squeegee device comprises a handle, a coupling member and a blade assembly slidably mounted together. The coupling member has a coupl.ing housing having an opened end and a square mounting head is provided at the free end of the handle. The mounting head can be slidably engaged with the coupling housing in any one of :Eour selective positions to provide a rugged joint.
Other objects of the invention will appear in the following description and appended claims, reference being made to the accompanying drawings in which:

Figure 12 is a,bottom elevation view of the alternative handle thereof.
Referring now to the drawings wherein like reference numerals designate corresponding parts in the several views, the squeegee device according to the present invention con-sists generally of a handle 10, a flexible blade assembly 11 and a coupling bracket 12 for mounting the handle 10 and the blade assembly 11 together. The handle 10 includes a rear hand grip 13 and an extension front portion 14 extending forwardly and downwardly from the front end of the hand grip 13 to a substantially rectangular Eront free end 15. A
square mounting head 16 is provided at the front free end 15. The mounting head 16 is spaced from the front free end 15 by a neck l7 which has a smaller cross sectional dimen-sion than the mount:ing head 16.
The handle 10 may be made of moulded plastic material or extruded metal or metal alloy and is generally I-shaped :in cross sect:ion and has raised edge portions 18 on both sides to provide rigidity ancl reinforcement therein. An opening 19 is prov:ided adjacent to the rear end of the handle 10 for hanging the squeegee dev:ice or the handle in storage.
The blade assembly 11 consists of an elongated flexible channel frame member 20 having a U-shaped cross section as ; best shown in Figure 10. It includes two flanges 21 and 22 extending outwards along the upper edges of the upstanding lateral sides 23 and 24 respectively. A cross brace 25 extends between the upstanding sides 23 and 24 and along the full length of the channel frame member 20 to provide reinforcement for the sides 23 and 24. A slot 26 is formed in the base 27 of the channel frame member 20 for sliding engagement with a rubber blade 28 similar to that in common automobile windshield wiper blades. Such blade is more flexible than the stiff wide rubber blade used in common non-flexible squeegee devices and it can readily conform to the curvature of the surface to be cleaned by pressing it over such surface. The flexible blade has an I-shaped cross section at its upper portion as best shown in Figure 10 having an upper cross web portion 29 and a middle flange 30 both extending the full length of the blade 28. The blade is secured to the channel frame member 20 by slidingly engaging the neck portion between the upper cross web ~L2S~
portion 29 and the middle flange 30 with the slot 27 in the channel frame member 20. The middle flange 29 also serves to transmit to the blade 28 the force exerted on the channel frame member 20 during use. The frame 20 may be also made of moulded plasti.c material or extruded metal or metal alloy having a slight :ElexibLe characteristic, and the frame 20 :is normal:Ly curved downwards towards the two entls therein so that it can conform to curved surfaces for cLeaning.
Slots 31 may be formed at regular intervals along the flanges 21 and 22 and the upper edges of the sides 23 and 24 to provide more flexibility to the blade assembly.
The coupling bracket 12 is generally inverted U-shaped;
it has two skirting sides 32 and 33 and a top platform 34.
The distance between the inside surface of the skirting sides 32 and 33 is slightly less than the distance between the lateral outside edges oE the flanges 21 and 22 of the flexible channel frame member 20. Four horizontal ridges 35, 36, 37 and 38 are formed in the inside edge portions of the : skirti.ng sides 32 and 33 as best shown in Figures 7 and 8.
Also, four downwardly extending spaced vertical ridges 39, 40, 41 and 42 are farmed in the underside of the platform 34.
For reason which will become apparent in the following descrip-tion the horizon-tal ridges 35, 36 and 37, 38 may be formed in a pair of ridges extending the full length of the skirting sides 32 and 33. Similarly, the vertical ridges 39, : 40 and 41, 42 may be in the form of a pair of spaced ridges extending the entire length of the platform 34. A rectangu-lar housing 43 is formed on the top platform 34. The housing 43 has an opened side 44 and its interior length 45 is sli-gtly longer than the square mounting head 16 of the handle 10 while its interior width is equal to that of the mounting head 16. A slot 46 -is provided in the top panel 47 of the housing 43. The slot 46 :is opened at the opened side 44 of the housing 43 and its width is equal to the width of the neck 17 on the handle 10. Two small rounded project;,ons 48 and 49 are provided on the inside surface of the two side portlons of the housing 43 adjacent to the opened side 44 such that the remai.ning interior s~pace inside the housing 43 forms a square compartment equal in si~e to the sguare head 16 on the handle 10.
The coupling bracket 12 can be slidably rrlounted to the blade assembly 11 by sliding the bracket 12 through the end of the blade assembly 11 such that the flanges 21 and 22 engage snugly with the ridges 35, 36 and 37, 38 respecively while thee vertical ridges 39, 40 and 41, 42 slidably engage wi,th the inside surface of the sides 23 and 24 of the flex-ible frame 20. The bracket 12 may be thus selectively fixed at any position along the length of the flexible frame 20.
The handle may then be mounted to the coupling bracket 12 by slidably engage the mounting head 16 of the handle through the opened side 44 and slot 46 of the housing 43 until it passes -the projecti,ons 48 and 49 which provide a locking action to fixedly secure the mounting head in place in the housing. It can be appreciated that due to the positive engagement between the mounting head 16 and the housing 43, a rugged and rigid joint is thus formed which is not subject to distortion or rotational movement even under the strong pressure exerted at the joint during use.
The handle 10 may be mounted to the coupling bracket 12 in one of four selected positions namely, two pOSitiOIIS
with the two parts parallel to each other such that the handle 10 points -to either end of the blade assembly, and ~L2S~5S
the other two positions with the two parts perpendicular to each other such that the handle 10 extends on either side of the blade assembly 11~ ~urthermore, the coupling bracket 12 may be located in any position a]ong the flexible Erame 20 to provide various selected configurations between the handle 10 and the blade assembly 11 to accommodate various situations encountered in use. ~'or example, as best shown :in Figure
