SOLOMON H. SCHMUCK, OF CLEVELAND, OHIO.
MOP-WRINGER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 434,033, dated August 12, 1890.
Application filed March 5,1890. Serial No. 342,732. (No model.)
To all whom t 11a/ay concern.-
Be it known that I, SOLOMON H. SCHMUCK, of Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Mop-IVringei-s; and I do hereby declare the following to be afull, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same.
My 4invention relates to improvements in mop-wringers; and it consists in certain features of construction and in combination of parts hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claims. I
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a plan showing, respectively, in solid and in dotted lines dierent working positions of the movable roller and attachments. Fig. 2 is a side elevation. Fig. 3 is an elevation in seotion.
A represents a pail, and B B side bars, adapted to rest on the pail, these side bars comprising thin bars of metal set edgewise, as shown. The ends of these side bars are slitted for a short distance, dividing them into upper and lower sections b and h'. Member b is adapted to rest on the edges of the pail, while member b' may be bent inward and made to engage the inner side of pails of different sizes. Member b' may be cut off, for instance, at b2, as shown in dotted lines, Fig. 2, leaving square shoulders adapted to engage the inside of pails of standard size.
C and C are rollers, usually of wood, the tru'nnions of the former being journaled in lateral holes of the side bars.
D D are thin metal bars connected by means of yoke D', these three members constituting a tilting or swinging frame pivoted at b3 to the side bar B. Connected with the side bars are guides B', projecting inward or toward each other a short distance, to engage the mop and hold the latter on the face of the rollers. Yoke D extends some little distance below members D, so that the yoke at the lower eX- tremes thereof is bent inward, as shown at el, these feet d being adapted to rest on guards B', and thus limit the downward movement of the tilting frame. The top section of the yoke serves as a handle and as a treadle on which to place the foot, knee, or arm, as the case may be, for depressing the tilting frame in closing the rollers.
E E are roller-arms, consisting of flat bars of metal, bearing at the one end thereof the movable roller C. The other ends of these roller-arms E E are pivoted at e to members D D, these members E and D constituting, essentially, a toggle. In turning the swinging frame back from roller C the roller-arms E E rest on feet d of the yoke, and `in such position of parts the swinging frame may be thrown back, so as to carry roller C' ott from over the pail. The trunnions of rollers C C' have usually screws c screwed into the roller the shanks of these screws extending through the holes in the supporting-bars with the heads outside of these bars, and screwthreaded Shanks of rollers C' should extend outward far enough to engage the edges of the side bars B when the rollers C', by means of the depression of the tilting frame, shall have been brought approximately in a horizontal plane with roller C. With Athe tilting frame thrown back free access is had for inserting the mop in the pail.
IVhen it is desired to wring the mop, by turning the tilting frame forward roller C is made to engage the mop and press the latter against roller C, and in such position of parts by bearing down on the yoke the toggles are broughtinto action, whereby a sufficient pressure of the rollers is had by applying only a moderate pressure to the yoke.
Springs F may be provided for reversing the tilting frame, and if the pressure is quickly removed from the yoke the recoil of these springs would usually throw the tilting frame back out of the way.
The device is simple, effective, and can' be made at a small initial cost, and is of little weight and occupies but little space when removed from the pail.
What I claim isl. In a mop-wringer, the combination, with side bars bearing a roller, of 'a tilting frame pivoted to the side bars, a yoke secured to said pivoted frame, and arms pivoted to the sides of the tilting frame and carrying a roller, substantially as set forth.
2. In a mop-wringer, in combination, tilting frame and roller and side bars, substan- IOO tially as vindicated., the side barshaving inwardly-projecting guards, the tilting frame having a yoke with depending ends adapted to engage the guard to limit the downward movement of the tilting frame, substantially as set forth. v
3. In a mop-Wringer, in combination, side bars, tilting frame, and rollers, substantially as indicated, sueh side bars having split ends, the upper sections whereof are adapted to rest on the pail, the lower section thereof being adapted to be bent to Iit different-sized pails, substantially as set forth.
4. In a lnop-Wringer, in combination, side hars and tilting frame pivotally attached to the side bars, a stationary roller mounted on the si de bars, the tilting frame being provided with roller-arms bearing a movable roller,
tion, in the presence of two witnesses, this 25th day of February, 1890.
