发明名称 Hi/Lo volume spray adjustment for mop handle
摘要 A cleaning device includes a shaft, a cleaning element mounted at a distal end of the shaft, a spray device mounted near the distal end of the shaft, a handle assembly mounted at a proximal end of the shaft, and a rod. The spray device includes a liquid reservoir, a pump and a nozzle. The handle assembly includes a lever rotatable about a pivot point with first and second engagement surfaces of different distances from the pivot point, and a knob having a cam surface and rotatable between first and second positions. The rod extends between the pump and the lever. The knob cam surface is engaged with the rod for aligning a first end of the rod to the first engagement surface with the knob in the first position and aligning the first end of the rod to the second engagement surface with the knob in the second position.
