Specification of Letters Patent.
To all wiom t may concern Be it known that LJOSEPH FARensoN, a` citizen of the United. States, residing` at 3116 Cottage -Grove avenue, in the city of Chicago, Cook county, Illinois, f have in-j vented new and useful Improvements in Mop-lVringers, of which the following is a specification. l c
This invention relates to mop wringers of, the kind comprising afs'uitablesupporting device in which is mounted rollers or other wringing devices, the whole being secured within a bucket orl tubl ofsimple form for containing the water which is used inthe mopping operation. In the ordinary operation of cleaning with a mop as for example in mopping a floor the water `is supplied from a mop bucket into which the mop cloth or mop rag is dipped, and it is also necessary to occasionally wring out'the rag to expel the excessv water from it. For this purpose the invention is designed to provide a suitable device for attachment tothe inside of the mop bucket above the surface 'of the water therein, `such device including rollers between ywhich the mop vcloth may be passed, and simple and conveniently operated means for bringing the rollers together in order to squeeze the mop rag between them. n
A device embodying the principles of the present invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which: l
Figure l is a view in axial section through the mop bucket and the wringing device, such section being taken on the line 1 of Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the mop bucket with the wringing device in place. Fig. 3 is a vertical section on the line 3 of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a view in elevation showing one of the coiled springs for separating the rollers when pressure is removed from the operating handle.
As shown in said drawings, 1 indicates a mop bucket or pail of ordinary form which may preferably be of wood and of suitable size and proportions to contain the scrubbing water which is used to wet the mop rag or cloth. Within the pail l and at the upper edge thereof are secured a pairof horizontal and parallel cross frame members 2 and 3, each of which is offset at its ends to coincide with the curvature of the pail and attached at such ends to the sides of the pail l, as by means of screws 5, 5.
A horizontal roller 8, is journaled on a stasecuredto them at itsendsg'and ldirectly abovecthe roller 8 is a second roller 12 Patented Sept. 15,1914. Application filed August 26, 1912,l Serial No. 716,989.,
.tionary shaft 9 and such shaft extends from t -one cross frame member to the other and is similarly journale'd on a stationary shaft 13 f which 'is supported by upward extensions -lnfroms the twocross` framel members E2 and 3. The said frame members also support a third,`movable, roller 20 which is rotativelymounted .on afshaft 22 having its ends.,
guided inhorizontal slots in the frame members, one of which slots is shown in Fig. 1`
at 23, Bythis means it will be seen that the ,movable roller 2O may be caused to approach or recede from the other two rollers, and the parts are so arranged that the movable rollermoves in a horizontal plane half way p between the planes of the two fixed rollers, whereby it is always equi-distant from them.
At each endof the shaft 22 is fixed a gear segment 80, the shaft being preferably tapered and squared at its ends and the hubs of the gear segments being provided with corresponding openings and fixed at the ends of the shafts by nuts 32, as best shown in Fig. 3. Each of the side members 2 and 3 is outwardly widened or flanged along its lower edge andin such widened part of each side member is formed an upwardly facing fixed rack, 35 and 36 respectively, meshing with the two gear segments. It will be seen therefore that by rotating the shaft 22 the two gear segments at its ends will 'travel along the fixed racks and will cause the movable roller 20 to approach or recede from the two fixed rollers 8 and l2; andfor the purpose of such operation one of the gear segments is provided with an integral radial extension in the form of a lever 40 by means of which the device is operated.
Bent springs 44 are provided at'each end of the shaft 22, each spring having a loop 45 at one end which encircles the shaft and being similarly shaped at the other end and fixed to a stud 48 in the yadjacent frame member; and the expansion of the two springs 44 acts normally to separate the movable roller 2O from the other two, while yieldingly permitting such roller to be `brought toward the other two by the operation of the lever 40.
ln the use of the device the wringing operation is effected by allowing thev rollers to separate and placing the mop cloth between the movable and the two fixed rollers; then .fixed in such frame members, a roller j our` such slots, horizontal flanges on such frame I5 `such racks, and a lever fixed to one end of n 2. In a mop Wringer, `the combination i applying pressure to such cloth by means of pail.
