G. F. BEVERLEY MOP WRINGER Filed Jan. 25. 1926 61km, nega- Patented May 8, 1928 UNITED STATES GEORGE F. BEVERLEY, OF CANTONyOHIO; a,
Mo wnmonn.
Application flied Jams 23, 1926 Serial n f'sas'zo.
The invention relates to improven'ients in devices for wringing mops and more par-- tlcularly to a simple mop wringer arranged to be mounted upon a scrub pail and so eon-v structed that it may be entirely operated by the foot, making it unnecessary for the operator to use either hand to manipulate the wringer permitting the mop handle to be grasped firmly in both hands as the wringing action is performed.
The objects of the invention are to provide a simple and inexpensive niop wringer having a fixed frame portion carrying one roll and arranged to be detachably connected to the top of a scrubbing pail or the like, a movable frame portion being pivotally c0nnected thereto and provided with a roller adapted to cooperate with the roller in the fixed frame to wring or squeeze the water from a mop; the movable frame is arranged to be operated to either position by the foot of the operator and has a foot plate and guard by means of which pressure is applied by foot to the roller; the pivoted frame so arranged that it will remain in either position in which it is placed. l
An embodiment of the inventionis illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a vertical sectional View through the improved mop wringer applied to a scrubbing pail, showing the same in operative position in full lines and in the inoperative position in dotted lines, and
Fig. 2, a top plan view of the same.
Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts throughout the drawing.
The normally fixed frame 1, is formed of a metal bar of suitable cross sectional area bent into substantially U-shape and is provided at its closed end with a spring clip 2 arranged to clamp over the head 3 at the open upper end of a scrub pail i or the like, this frame being arranged to rest across the top of the pail in horizontal position as indicated in the drawing. 7
A roller 5, which may be formed of wood or the like, is journaled upon an axle 6 carried in the fixed frame 1, and preferably near the closed endthereof as shown.
The pivoted frame 7 is also formed of a metal bar bent into substantial U-shape and of slightly greater width than the fixed frame 1. V This pivoted frame 18 pivoted, at
a point near its closed outer end, to the free ends of the fixed frame 1, as by the bolts 8,.
a pluralityof'openings 9 being'provided' in the two frames to provide for an adjustment of the pivotal points.
A roller l0,similar to the roller 5, is journaled upon anax'lell carried nearthe open end portion of the pivoted frame 7. The roller 10 may be slightly longer than the roller 5, as best shown in F 2, the end portions of the roller '10 thus being arranged to engage the side arms of the fixed frame when the mop is withdrawn to cover the entire mop cloth while itis being wrung.
A foot platelQ, which may be formed of heavy sheet metal or the like, is mounted upon the arms of the pivoted frame, in position toassume a substantially horizontal position when the frame is in operative position, as shown in Figure 1. This foot plate may be provided with a guard flange 13 adjacont tothe roller 10, to protect the foot of the operator from coming into: contact with the wet roller or having water splashed therefrom when the wringer is being operated In operating the mop wringer to wring or squeeze the water from a mop, the pivoted v fra me 7 is first movedinto the position shown in dotted lines in Figure 1 by pressing upon the closed outer end of the frame with the toot. After this frame 18 thus thrown over the pivotalcenter, with the lower closed end contacting with the outside of the pail, it
will remain in this position.
The mop shown at it is then placed against the roller 5 and the pivoted frame is moved into the position shown in Figure l, by the foot of the operator, the roller 10 thereon engaging the 1110p.
The operator then presses down upon the plate 12with one foot, swinging the pivoted frame downward upon its pivot and urging the roller 10 therein toward the roller 5, com
pressing the mop which is then slowly withdrawn from between the rolls by an upward pull upon the mop handle-l5, thus wringing or squeezing the water therefrom.
I claim: 1
l. A mop wringer including a relatively stationary, U-shaped frame adapted to be connected upon the top of a pail, aroller journaled in said frame, arelatively movable,
oppositely disposed U-shaped frame and adapted to bemoved to lowered or raised position pivotally connected intermediate its ends to the stationary frame whereby the n'iovable frame will r main in either pos1- tion to which it is moved a roller carried ranged to cooperate With the first named roller when the movable frame is in lowered position, the free outer end of the movable frame being arranged to contact with the outside of the pail and the roller thereon being positioned beyond the pivotal center when the movable frame is moved to the raised position whereby said movable frame will remain in the raised position.
In testimony that I claim the above, I have hereunto subscribed my name.
