Scrubbing cloth attachment with U-shaped retaining wire 0. The like.

Patented in the German Empire on May 26, 1923.

According to the Union Treaty of June 2, 1911, priority is due to this application of the application in England on October 24, 1922.

The invention relates to a swab attachment. Fastenings of this type are per se and in particular with a U-shaped which is also used in the subject matter of the invention Retaining strap or retaining wire known. So far the holding wire was on the front

However, firmly attached to the end of the stem. Between the legs of this U-shaped A sliding bracket was provided for the wire, which clamps the scrubbing cloth should. The disadvantage of such an embodiment is in particular that

Claims (3)

the scrubbing cloth was held too far away from the end of the handle and there was therefore the possibility of bending the retaining wire if the pressure was too strong. The subject matter of the invention is characterized by a retaining wire that can be clamped to the end of the handle with a sleeve or the like. A special bracket that can be moved between the legs of the U-shaped retaining wire is now no longer necessary. The ίο swab is clamped between the handle end and the U-shaped retaining wire in a much more advantageous manner. Around the holding wire with reference to the end of the handle. move to! can, a sleeve is attached to the end of the handle, which receives the U-shaped bent ends of the retaining wire in two diametrically opposed grooves. The ends of the retaining wire are bent so that a helical spring pushed over the latter and at the same time over the above-mentioned sleeve can be supported on the one hand against a flange of the sleeve of the retaining wire and, when turned in one direction or the other, causes either a tightening or loosening of the metal band . Instead of the spring, a screw nut can also be used. The sleeve and also the legs of the U-shaped bent wire would have to be threaded for this case. The subject of the invention is shown in the drawing. Fig. I, 2, 3 show it in front view, side view and in cross section. 1 Fig. 4 shows the attachment partially seen in section from above. The front end of the handle 5 carries a metal sleeve 6, which in turn has an annular flange 7. In this flange there are openings 8 through which the U-shaped bent legs 11 of the metal strip 12 are passed. On the inside of the sleeve there are ribs 9 with a V-shaped cross-section, pointed upwards, which cut into the handle when the sleeve is driven onto the handle and are intended to prevent the sleeve from rotating relative to the handle. In addition, the sleeve is also fastened by means of the screws 10. The legs 11 of the metal strip 12 lie in longitudinal grooves 13 of the sleeve 6 and cut smoothly with their outer surfaces. They are bent at right angles at their free ends 14 in order to be able to grip over the turns of a strong helical spring 15, which sits over the sleeve 6 and is supported on the flange 7. By rotating the spring 15, the metal band 12 can be connected or loosened, i. E. H. the loop formed by the metal band and receiving the scrubbing cloth can be enlarged or reduced in relation to the front end of the handle 5. Instead of the spring 15, an ordinary screw nut can also be used, for which purpose threads are to be cut on the outside of the sleeve 6 and also on the legs 11 of the metal band 12. Patent-A ν Proverbs: 1. Scrubbing cloth attachment with U-shaped retaining wire, characterized in that that the legs of the U-shaped metal band by means of a sleeve (6) or the like clamped to the end of the handle (5). 2. A rag fastening according to claim i, characterized in that the Sleeve (6) is provided at the outer end with an annular flange (7), which is used to push through the one holding the scrubbing cloth Metal band (11, 12) with openings (8) is provided, while üher the sleeve (6) both as over the legs (11) of the metal band a helical spring (15) is striped, which is bent against the Leg ends (14) of the metal strip on the one hand and against the on the Sleeve (6) seated flange (7) on the other hand for the purpose of clamping the parts (11 and 6) lays. 3. scouring cloth attachment according to claim i, 2 and 3, characterized in that that the legs (11) of the metal band in grooves (13) of the sleeve (6) and with Cut off their outer surface smoothly, using an ordinary screw nut when applying the legs (11) must also be provided with threads. 1 sheet of drawings.
