US Patent:

6446299, Sep 10, 2002
Filed:

Mar 20, 2001
Appl. No.:

09/812670
Inventors:

Bryan Kaleta - Darien IL 60561
International Classification:

A47L 1312
US Classification:

151192, 151162, 15118
Abstract:

A hand held cleaning device that has a self wringing mechanism for extracting liquids from a sponge mounted at the end of an elongated handle. A sleeve is mounted on the handle and slides from a first position to a second position. When moved to the second position, it operates a wringing assembly mounted on a lever mechanism. There is a second cleaning element mounted on a moveable frame member that pivots and wrings the liquid from the sponge and moves the second cleaning element over the first cleaning element. In this second position, the moveable frame is positioned between the sponge and the second cleaning element with the second cleaning element contacting the surface to be cleaned.

Filed:

Aug 10, 2001
Appl. No.:

09/925809
Inventors:

Bryan Kaleta - Darien IL 60561
International Classification:

A47L 1312
US Classification:

151191, 151161
Abstract:

A hand held cleaning device that has a self wringing mechanism for extracting liquids from a flexible cleaning element. A wringer mechanism is mounted at the end of an elongated handle. A slidable mop head base is mounted on the bottom of the handle and slides along the elongated handle. When the mop head is moved from its first cleaning position, the flexible cleaning element is drawn through the wringing assembly to remove absorbed liquids from the cleaning element. A pivotal gate opens, allowing the mop head and cleaning element to pass back through the wringing mechanism to assume its original cleaning position. In an alternate embodiment the mop head is attached to the elongated handle and the wringer mechanism is mounted for slidable movement with respect to the elongated handle.

US Patent:

7152267, Dec 26, 2006
Filed:

Jun 3, 2004
Appl. No.:

10/861705
Inventors:

Bryan Kaleta - Darien IL, US
International Classification:

A47L 11/24
US Classification:

15 42, 15 411, 15 521
Abstract:

A light weight floor sweeper having a very low profile sweeper head that uses glides rather than rollers to slide across the surface to be cleaned. The floor sweeper head is mounted to an elongated handle by a universal pivot or universal joint which allows the floor sweeper head to easily pivot about the handle in any direction to pick up debris under over hanging cabinets or under furniture. The floor sweeper has sweeping brushes mounted around all sides of the sweeper head to provide sweeping action in any direction. Furthermore there are corner brushes extending out from the sides of the sweeper head that reach into corners to sweep debris toward the main sweeping brushes. All of the brushes are powered by a small electric motor. The motor drives the brushes to direct the debris into a dust-receiving tray in the sweeper head.

US Classification:

15 42, 15 411, 15 521, 74606 R, 277637
Abstract:

A light weight floor sweeper has a sweeper head mounted to an elongated handle by means of a universal pivot or universal joint which allows the floor sweeper head to easily pivot about the handle in any direction to pick up debris under over hanging cabinets or under furniture. The floor sweeper has sweeping brushes mounted around all four sides of the sweeper head to provide sweeping action when the sweeper is moved in any direction. There are corner brushes extending out from the sides of the sweeper head that reach into corners to sweep debris toward the main sweeping brushes. All of the brushes are powered by a small electric motor that drives the brushes to direct the debris into a dust-receiving tray in the sweeper head. A gasket arrangement keeps dust and debris out of the gear housings located at each of the corners of the sweeper head regardless of the direction in which the sweeper head is moving.
