Abstract

A rotary mop with a mop fabric capable of preventing a handle from emerging therefrom. The rotary mop includes a handle, a slide sleeve fitted on the handle and a mop fabric. The slide sleeve is movable along the handle and rotatable about the handle. One end of the mop fabric is connected with a bottom end of the handle, while another end of the mop fabric is connected with a bottom end of the slide sleeve. The mop fabric has such a structure that the bottom end of the handle cannot emerge from the mop fabric. Therefore, when mopping the ground with the rotary mop, the mop fabric can evenly spread around the handle without gathering or tangling. Accordingly, the contact area of the mop fabric with the ground can be enlarged to enhance the cleaning effect and water-wringing effect.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A rotary mop with a mop fabric capable of preventing a handle from emerging therefrom, the rotary mop comprising:
 a handle;   a slide sleeve fitted on the handle, the slide sleeve being movable along the handle and rotatable about the handle; and   a mop fabric having a cylindrical shape, one end of the mop fabric being connected with a bottom end of the slide sleeve, while another end of the mop fabric being connected with a bottom end of the handle, whereby the handle and the slide sleeve are rotatable relative to each other to wring the mop fabric;   said rotary mop being characterized in that the mop fabric is a piece of fabric that is not cut into fabric strips so that the bottom end of the handle is prevented from emerging from the mop fabric.   
   
   
       2 . The rotary mop as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the mop fabric is free from any hollow section. 
   
   
       3 . The rotary mop as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the mop fabric is formed with several ventilation sections each having such a dimension that the bottom end of the handle cannot pass through any ventilation section to emerge from the mop fabric. 
   
   
       4 . The rotary mop as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the ventilation sections are slots arranged at intervals. 
   
   
       5 . The rotary mop as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the ventilation sections are holes arranged at intervals. 
   
   
       6 . The rotary mop as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the mop fabric is made of a piece of fabric having two lateral sides, the lateral sides being connected with each other to form the mop fabric with a cylindrical shape. 
   
   
       7 . The rotary mop as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the mop fabric is made by knitting and formed with a cylindrical shape. 
   
   
       8 . The rotary mop as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a cap member disposed at the bottom end of the handle, one end of the mop fabric being connected with the cap member. 
   
   
       9 . The rotary mop as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein at least one rib is disposed on an outer circumference of the bottom end of the handle; an insertion hole being formed through the bottom end of the handle; the cap member having a hub section disposed at a top end of the cap member; at least one insertion channel being formed on an inner circumference of the hub section; a through hole being formed through the hub section, the bottom end of the handle being inserted in the hub section of the cap member with the rib inserted in the insertion channel; an insertion pin being inserted in the through hole of the cap member and the insertion hole of the handle. 
   
   
       10 . The rotary mop as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the bottom end of the handle is formed with a small-diameter section, the rib and the insertion hole being disposed on the small-diameter section, the small-diameter section of the handle being inserted in the hub section.
