Sponge mop attachment

摘要

An attachment for a sponge mop, the attachment being in the form of an elongated clip which is U-shaped in transverse cross-section and whose legs are resilient, with the outer surface of the clip bight portion carrying a pad. The pad can be of a relatively abrasive material for scrubbing or can be of a buffer/polisher material. The legs of the clip releasably fasten onto opposite sides of the sponge. The attachment (when used as a scrubber) and sponge can both be squeezed by a hinged squeezing mechanism conventionally carried by such mops. The scrubber pad may carry a detergent composition, such detergent being wetted by liquid in the sponge by virtue of holes in the central portion of the clip. The attachment, as a scrubber, is clipped to a sponge mop whenever floor portions are encountered which require greater abrasion than that obtained from the sponge alone and is clipped to the sponge mop (with a different pad thereon) whenever floor buffing/polishing is desired. The pad may be releasably or permanently attached to the clip.
