Self draining mop system
The mop has a hollow pole ( 1 ) the center of which has a piston ( 3 ) which is activated from the outside with a movable grip ( 6 ), so that said piston ( 3 ) may reduce the elevation of a pressure chamber ( 4 ) established in the lower area of the pole ( 1 ), which communicates directly with a push cylinder ( 10 ) with a larger diameter, which reinforces said pole at the bottom and in the center of which works a push plunger ( 13 ) which supports the head ( 24 ) the mop cloth ( 25 ), also actuating said push plunger ( 13 ) on a pair of side cams ( 16 ) which when resting adjust on the exterior to the push cylinder ( 12 ) but that in the initial downward movement phase of the plunger ( 13 ) they tilt outward locking into a perimeter tab ( 18 ) of the wringer opening ( 19 ) also part of the opening of the bucket that holds the water, so that the tendency of the pole ( 1 ) reversing during the wringing phase is eliminated by locking said pole ( 1 ) to the wringer ( 19 ) using the mentioned tab ( 18 ) of the latter. The manual effort needed to wring the mop cloth ( 25 ) is therefore drastically reduced.
1. A Device comprising:
a wringer attached to an opening of a water bucket, and a pole reinforced on its lower end with a cloth mop or squeegee, where said pole ( 1 ) is hollow and its interior has a piston ( 3 ) that is activated with an exterior movable grip ( 6 ), axially movable on the pole itself ( 1 ), setting itself under the mentioned piston ( 3 ) an upper pressure chamber ( 4 ) that connects directly with a lower chamber ( 12 ) established in a push cylinder ( 11 ), with a larger diameter reinforcing a lower extremity of the pole ( 1 ), also impacting a center of the lower chamber ( 12 ) and with a larger diameter a push plunger ( 13 ) and where the lower chamber ( 12 ) remains confined by a tight joint ( 14 ) set between the push plunger ( 13 ) and a chamber wall, where the joint under which a pair of window ( 15 ) are established, diametrally opposed, where a pair of cams ( 16 ) tilt forward and back, which when resting on an exterior adjust to the push cylinder ( 11 ) are activated by the push plunger ( 13 ) tilting outward to lock into a perimeter tab ( 18 ) added to an opening of the wringer ( 19 ).
2. A device, according to claim 1 , further comprising having the piston ( 3 ) which confines the upper pressure chamber ( 4 ) at the top and supports an ascending rod ( 5 ), which is reinforced on its free and top extremity with a cross pin ( 7 ), which emerges on the outside of the pole ( 1 ) through a longitudinal groove ( 8 ) and is supported by the movable grip ( 6 ).
3. A device, according to claim 1 , comprising where the piston ( 3 ) in the upper pressure chamber ( 4 ) are activated by a pump.
4. A device, according to claim 1 , further comprising having a head ( 24 ) being attached to the push plunger ( 13 ) with an interior or exterior groove system.
5. A device, according to claim 4 , further comprising having the head ( 24 ) having at the top and in ascending from a pair of pins ( 33 ) that are diametrally opposed, operationally facing the cams ( 16 ) and that act on the latter in the initial ascending movement of the pole ( 1 ), releasing said cams ( 16 ) from the perimeter tab ( 18 ) of the wringer opening ( 19 ).
6. A device, according to claim 4 , further comprising having the head ( 24 ) of a mop cloth ( 25 ) coupled to a lower, axial and blind hole ( 22 ) of the push plunger ( 13 ), with a flare at the bottom ( 23 ), using a top and axial rod ( 26 ), with a diameter cut ( 27 ) and where said rod has a perimetral shoulder ( 28 ) to attach to the flare ( 23 ) on the bottom of the blind hole ( 22 ), and said head ( 24 ) has another axial and lower rod ( 29 ), to attach the mop cloth ( 25 ) in the center of an inverted bucket ( 31 ), equipped at its free end with a perimetral shoulder ( 30 ) to pressure couple a support washer ( 32 ).
7. A device, according to claim 1 , further comprising having in the upper pressure chamber ( 4 ) a second piston ( 20 )) with a spring ( 21 ) that is part of the push plunger ( 13 ) where the spring ( 21 ) acts when compressed.
8. A device, according to claim 1 , further comprising having the upper pressure chamber ( 4 ) and the lower chamber ( 12 ) may be filled with a liquid or a gas.
