Adjustable squeegee with scrubber bar

Abstract

A cleaning device is provided. The cleaning device includes a handle and a channel member operably coupled to the handle. A blade is replaceably coupled to the channel member. A lock assembly that includes an end cap, a lock switch member and a support member. The end cap is coupled to the channel member. The lock switch member is slidably coupled to the end cap, the lock switch member being movable between an unlocked, a locked and an extended position. The support member is moveably coupled to the end cap and having a support surface adjacent a surface of the blade, the support member having a ramp portion that is engagable by the lock switch member to translate the support surface into contact with the surface of the blade.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A cleaning device comprising:
 a handle;   a channel member operably coupled to the handle;   a blade replaceably coupled to the channel member;   a lock assembly that includes:
 an end cap coupled to the channel member; 
 a lock switch member slidably coupled to the end cap, the lock switch member being movable between an unlocked position, a locked position and an extended position; and 
 a support member moveably coupled to the end cap and having a support surface adjacent a surface of the blade, the support member having a ramp portion that is engagable by the lock switch member to translate the support surface into contact with the surface of the blade. 
   
     
     
         2 . The cleaning device of  claim 1 , wherein the lock switch member further includes an angled surface that engages the ramp portion when the lock switch member is moved from the locked position to the extended position. 
     
     
         3 . The cleaning device of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the support member includes a pair of pins extending on opposite sides of the ramp portion; and   the lock switch member further includes a pair of ribs, the pair of ribs each having a slot sized to receive one of the pair of pins.   
     
     
         4 . The cleaning device of  claim 3 , wherein the slot includes an angled surface, the angled surface engaging the pair of pins and translating the support member away from the blade in response to the lock switch member moving from the extended position to the locked position. 
     
     
         5 . The cleaning device of  claim 1 , wherein the support member includes a support arm that extends laterally in a direction of a wiping edge of the blade. 
     
     
         6 . The cleaning device of  claim 5 , further comprising a clip spring coupled between the end cap and the lock switch member. 
     
     
         7 . The cleaning device of  claim 6 , wherein:
 the lock switch member further includes a relief area on a side facing the end cap; and   the clip spring is shaped to receive the relief area when the lock switch member is in the unlocked position.   
     
     
         8 . The cleaning device of  claim 1 , further comprising a pad post coupled to the end cap. 
     
     
         9 . The cleaning device of  claim 1 , further comprising a rotational assembly comprising:
 a frame coupled to the blade, the frame having a first slot and at least one cantilevered arm with a tooth disposed on one end; and   a support body rotationally coupled to the first slot, the support body having a flange with a plurality of second slots, the plurality of second slots sized to receive the tooth.   
     
     
         10 . The cleaning device of  claim 9 , further comprising a handle lever pivotally coupled to the frame, the handle lever having a cam surface positioned and shaped to engage at least one cantilever arm in response to the handle lever being moved from an open positioned to a closed position. 
     
     
         11 . The cleaning device of  claim 9 , wherein the support body includes at least one feature extending parallel with a longitudinal axis of the blade. 
     
     
         12 . The cleaning device of  claim 11 , wherein the at least one feature has a contrasting color to a remaining portion of the support body. 
     
     
         13 . The cleaning device of  claim 9 , further comprising a button slidably coupled to an aperture in the handle, the button being movable between a first position and a second position. 
     
     
         14 . The cleaning device of  claim 13 , wherein:
 the frame includes a portion extending towards the handle, the portion having a third slot; and   the button includes a projection sized and positioned to be disposed in the third slot when the button is in the first position and spaced apart from the third slot when the button is in the second position.   
     
     
         15 . The cleaning device of  claim 14 , wherein:
 the blade is in a fixed position relative to the handle when the button is in the first position; and   the blade freely rotates about an axis when the button is in the second position.
