Mop with wide and narrow modes via main and sub-hinge switching
This technology relates to a mop that switches between wide and narrow modes by connecting the main and sub-poles to the left and right mop heads using hinges.
Conventional mops have a fixed cleaning width, making it inconvenient to clean both large surfaces and narrow gaps.
To address this, this technology uses the articulation of the main and sub-hinges along with a locking mechanism to change the shape of the pole, allowing for efficient cleaning of both wide areas and narrow spaces.
Key Features:
- A sub-pole coupled to the main pole via a main hinge, and mop heads coupled to the left and right sides of the sub-pole via sub-hinges
- The main hinge allows for articulation up to an angle where the sub-pole lies parallel to the main pole
- The sub-hinges allow for articulation in both lateral and longitudinal directions
- Includes a locking mechanism that secures the sub-pole in a parallel position to the main pole to switch between wide and narrow modes
