. moved from upholstery, clothingand the like;
Another object of the invention is to provide a cleaning implement consisting of two layers of flexible rubber-like material, preferably sponge rubber, having their contiguous faces secured to one another, and a rigid handle ext-ending from the said material.
A further object of the invention is to provide a cleaning implement consisting of a piece of rubher-like material, preferably sponge rubber, fold ed upon itself, having its 'contiguous faces se cured to' one another andarough exposed face, and a rigid handle secured between the folded portion of the material and projecting there- .from.
I Having thus briefly statedsome' of, the objects I and advantages of the invention, I will riowproceed to describe a preferred embodimentthereof with the aid of the accompanying drawing, in
which: I
Figure 1 illustrates a side elevation of the cleaning implement, and
Figure 2 is aside view thereof, and
Figure 3 is a similar side view showing the extremity of the cleaning implement flexed.
Figure 4 is a section "on the line 4-4 of Fi ure 1.
Figure 5 is a plan view of a piece'of flexible rubber-like piece of material of which my cleaning implement is made, and
Figure 6 is a partial sectional-view of the material.
Referring to the drawing, I designates a piece of flexible rubber-like material, bywhich I mean ent instance is provided with a plurality of lon-v sponge-rubber, rubber composition, or a synthetic substitute therefor. Through the flexible rubberlike material I a transverse slot 2 is formed int-ermediately of its width and centrally of its 'lengthalon'g a line A uponwhich the material 1. is to be folded upon itself. The rubber-like ma-] terial l has a rough side 3, whichin thepres- 'gitudinally concave recesses 3c andis also some;
. what porous as indicated 3b. Its opposite side 4 v is smooth and is preferably provided with an integral skin 4a. The material is folded along the line A to form two layers 5 and 6 having their smooth sides 4 contiguous.
1 denotes a handle, preferably consisting'of wire and having an outwardly projecting loop dle through the apertured extremity.
which extends through the slot 2., Inwardly or lb have inturned extremities To which are soldered' or otherwise-secured ,to one another to.
afford rigidity, at M. The inturned extremities 70 should be sufficiently spaced fromthe ,ex-, tremity of the cleaning implement to permit the end of the latter tobe flexed, as shown in Figure 3, 1 against the work.
After the'handle has been placed in position the two layers 5 and 6 of the rubber-like material are adhesively secured to one another, and the opposite intermediate portions of the slot sides 2 are also similarly secured to one another.
From the foregoing it will be readily seen that I have devised asimple, effective and convenient form of cleaning implement; 'it'is-also under-, stood that the invention is subject to such altera tions and modification'sas fall within the scope of the appended claims.
What I claim asmy invention secure by Letters Patent is:
and desire to 1. A cleaning implement comprising a sheet of rubber-dike material folded upon itself'centrally of its length whereby a shoulder is formed within the folded extremity ofthe sheet, means holding the adjacent faces ofthe folded sides of the sheet incontact with one another, the folded extremity. of the sheet being apertured, a handle extending through said folded apertured the folded sides of the sheet and bearing against said shoulder to prevent detachment of the han- 2. A cleaning implement comprising a trally of its length whereby a shoulder is formed within the folded extremity of the sheet, the -.said folded extremity being apertured, the ad- -jacent faces of the folded sheet being adhesively secured to one another, and a handle extending through said folded apertured extremity, said "handle extending laterally between the folded sides of'the sheet and bearing against the shoulder formed therebetween.
