Cleaning tool

Abstract

Defined broadly, the present invention is a dust mop cleaning head that has an internal shock absorbing cushion that compensates for the void between conventional dust mop wire frames and the irregularities of floor surfaces allowing the cleaning surface to make full contact with the floor surface. Thus allowing an industrial standard annular wire frame support housing to house thin type synthetic microfiber type materials without using a flat surface adaptor plate or flat surface cleaning support frame.

1 . A mop head for cleaning a working surface, comprising:
 an annular frame; and   a mop head having a sleeve to receive said annular frame and to be retained thereon, a cleaning surface member connected to said sleeve in a manner to form a pocket between said sleeve and said cleaning surface member, and a cushioning member disposed in the pocket such that when said cleaning surface member is disposed against the working surface, said annular frame is displaced therefrom and imparts structure to said cleaning surface member to maintain substantial contact of the working surface with said cleaning surface member.   
   
   
       2 . A mop head for cleaning a working surface of  claim 1 , which further includes a quick release adaptor connected to said annular frame for securing a handle. 
   
   
       3 . A mop head for cleaning a working surface of  claim 1 , wherein said cushioning member comprises one of non-woven, woven and foam. 
   
   
       4 . A mop head for cleaning a working surface of  claim 1 , wherein said cleaning surface member comprises one of synthetic, microfiber or cotton material. 
   
   
       5 . A mop head for cleaning a working surface of  claim 1 , wherein said frame is generally disposed about a periphery of said cushioning member. 
   
   
       6 . A mop for cleaning a working surface, comprising:
 an elongated handle;   an annular frame connected to said handle; and   a mop head having a sleeve to receive said annular frame and to be retained thereon, cleaning surface member connected to said sleeve in a manner to form a pocket between said sleeve and said cleaning surface member, and a cushioning member disposed in the pocket such that when said cleaning surface member is disposed against the working surface, said annular frame is displaced therefrom and imparts structure to said cleaning surface member to maintain substantial contact of the working surface with said cleaning surface member.   
   
   
       7 . A mop for cleaning a working surface of  claim 6 , which further includes a quick release adaptor connected to said annular frame for securing said handle. 
   
   
       8 . A mop for cleaning a working surface of  claim 6 , wherein said cushioning member comprises one of non-woven, woven and foam. 
   
   
       9 . A mop for cleaning a working surface of  claim 6 , wherein said cleaning surface member comprises one of synthetic, microfiber or cotton material. 
   
   
       10 . A mop for cleaning a working surface of  claim 6 , wherein said frame is generally disposed about a periphery of said cushioning member.
