Floor Check

Abstract

The Floor Check is a scraping tool with special features that allow it to be quickly attached to the ends of broom handles, so it doubles the effectiveness of brooms as cleaning tools. Brooms are some of the most common cleaning tools in the world. They are highly effective at removing loose debris from surfaces; but when wet food and dirt dry and become stuck to the floor, it's necessary to get down and scrape them loose. When using the Floor Check however, it's not necessary to find another tool and get down on the floor; simply turn the broom around, remain standing, scrape off whatever is stuck, and then sweep it away. The Floor Check can be quickly removed from broom handles for use on raised surfaces also. Because of its usefulness, the Floor Check should become as common as the broom itself.

1 . Whether the Floor Check is put together from separate parts (as described in this patent application) or made from a single piece of material that has been cut or molded, the device's features and their functions remain the same. The features that make up the Tubular Body of the Floor Check, and how they function, are what make The Floor Check unique among cleaning accessories; and in particular, among tools that can be attached to broom handles. Other cleaning tools may exist that can be attached to broom handles, but they cannot remain securely attached while in use without being fastened on; so they cannot be quickly removed from a broom handle, without the use of other tools. The Floor Check is designed in a way that allows it to be quickly, easily, and securely attached to the ends of broom handles of varying sizes; yet it can still be easily and quickly removed by the user, without the use of any tools.
