Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A multipurpose mop, comprising:
 a mop head;   wherein said mop head comprises a plurality of bristles on a first side of said mop head, and one or more fabric attachment portions on a bottom face of said mop head.   
     
     
         2 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 1 , wherein said mop head further comprises an attachment portion.
 wherein said attachment portion is located substantially at a center of a top surface of said mop head.   
     
     
         3 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 2 , wherein said attachment portion comprises a variable angle connector and a locking mechanism. 
     
     
         4 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 3 , wherein said mop head further comprises a restraining mechanism configured to restrain said variable angle connector relative to said mop head. 
     
     
         5 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 4 , wherein said first side and a second side are located opposite to one another on said mop head;
 wherein said variable angle connector allows said multipurpose mop to have a plurality of utility configurations;   wherein said plurality of utility configurations comprise a bristles down configuration and a mopping configuration.   
     
     
         6 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 5 , wherein when in said bristles down configuration, a distal end of said variable angle connector faces in the direction of said second side of said mop head. 
     
     
         7 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 6 , wherein when in said bristles down configuration, said variable angle connector is releaseably restrained by said restraining mechanism. 
     
     
         8 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 5 , wherein when in said mopping configuration, said variable angle connector faces between the direction of said second side of said mop head and said first side of said mop head. 
     
     
         9 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 5 , wherein said mop head comprises a squeegee on said second side of said mop head. 
     
     
         10 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 9 , wherein said plurality of utility configurations further comprise a squeegee down configuration;
 wherein when in said squeegee down configuration, a distal end of said variable angle connector faces in the direction of said first side of said mop head.   
     
     
         11 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 10 , wherein when in said squeegee down configuration, said variable angle connector is releaseably restrained by said restraining mechanism. 
     
     
         12 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 11 , wherein said plurality of bristles and said squeegee are made from rubber. 
     
     
         13 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 12 , wherein said plurality of bristles are substantially flat, parallel, and staggered with respect to one another. 
     
     
         14 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 3 , further comprising a handle;
 wherein said mop head is configured to be removeably attachable to said handle via said attachment portion.   
     
     
         15 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 14 , wherein said handle comprises a locking mechanism receiver. 
     
     
         16 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 15 , wherein said locking mechanism comprises a stopper biased outward. 
     
     
         17 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 16 , wherein said stopper and said locking mechanism receiver are shaped such that said stopper biased outward is receivable by said locking mechanism receiver. 
     
     
         18 . The multipurpose mop of  claim 14 , further comprising a dustpan;
 wherein said dustpan is contoured such that said dustpan is configured to grip onto said handle for storage.   
     
     
         19 . A multipurpose mop, comprising:
 a mop head;   a dustpan; and   a handle;   wherein said mop head comprises a plurality of bristles on a first side of said mop head, a squeegee on a second side of said mop head, and a fabric attachment portion on a bottom face of said mop head;   wherein said first side and said second side are located opposite to one another on said mop head;   wherein said mop head further comprises an attachment portion;   wherein said attachment portion is located substantially towards a center of a top surface of said mop head;   wherein said attachment portion comprises a variable angle connector and a locking mechanism;   wherein said mop head further comprises a restraining mechanism configured to restrain said variable angle connector relative to said mop head;   wherein said variable angle connector allows for a plurality of utility configurations;
 wherein said plurality of utility configurations comprises a bristles down configuration, a mopping configuration, and a squeegee down configuration; 
   wherein when in said bristles down configuration, a distal end of said variable angle connector faces in the direction of said second side of said mop head;   wherein when in said bristles down configuration, said variable angle connector is releaseably restrained by said restraining mechanism;   wherein when in said mopping configuration, said variable angle connector faces between the direction of said second side of said mop head and said first side of said mop head;   wherein when in said squeegee down configuration, a distal end of said variable angle connector faces in the direction of said first side of said mop head;   wherein when in said squeegee down configuration, said variable angle connector is releaseably restrained by said restraining mechanism;   wherein said mop head is configured to be removeably attachable to said handle via said attachment portion;   wherein said handle comprises a locking mechanism receiver;   wherein said locking mechanism comprises a stopper biased outward;   wherein said stopper and said locking mechanism receiver are shaped such that said stopper biased outward is receivable by said locking mechanism receiver;   wherein said dustpan is contoured such that said dustpan is configured to grip said handle for storage.
