发明名称 Dual-Mode Contour-Following Mop
摘要 A scrubbing implement for cleaning a surface with contours is disclosed. The scrubbing implement includes a resilient base that includes a plurality of resilient fingers, each of which extend radially away from center of the base. A rigid cap comprises an inside upper end and a wider open lower end. The cap preferably includes a handle receiving means pivotally fixed to the cap for receiving a threaded end of an elongated handle. A flexible pad is included that comprises a cleaning surface on a lower side thereof. The pad has a peripheral lip forming an aperture in the pad for receiving the distal ends of each finger of the base. In use, the base is fixed to the cap with the attachment means. The flexible pad is fixed around the distal ends of the fingers such that the pad may be applied to the surface to scrub the surface. The fingers and flexible pad conform to the shape of the surface. An additional resilient base is provided such that with the fingers pressed firmly against the surface each of a plurality of central scrubbing nibs contacts the back side of the pad to reinforce the pad against the surface, thereby providing additional scrubbing force to the surface. An alternate embodiment having a rotational scrubbing surface driven by a motor is also disclosed.
