Abstract: Dual bonnet clips, preferably of integral plastic molded construction, are secured to the top surface of the head of a dust type mop. Each clip has two resilient upstanding arms which, when pushed down at their respective ends, causes the side sections of the clip to pivot up from the top surface of the mop at the clips' midpoint. In this raised position, the side surfaces of the mop's bonnet can be placed under the side sections. When the downward pressure on the ends of the arms is released, the side sections of the clips pivot down and lower onto the bonnet, securing the bonnet to the mop head.
Abstract: A dustpan with a shovel section is configured in substantially the same shape as the broom head and is adapted, during non-use or storage, to overlay the head. The dustpan consists of a lower, open resilient tubular section which surrounds the handle of the broom. Shoulder members protruding from this section maintain the dustpan in position over the broom head. When the broom is to be used, the dustpan is simply slid up the handle towards the user, to a point where an outwardly extending rim at the lowermost end of the dustpan engages detents extending from a collar secured to the handle. The dustpan rim and collar detents interconnect, positioning and securing the dustpan on the handle to expose the bristles of the broom to allow sweeping. After sweeping is completed, the dustpan can be disengaged from the collar by sliding it down the handle, away from the user. It can then be removed from the broom to pick up dirt and debris.
Abstract: A water bottle holder for a bicycle which employs a flexible spring-operated cage with tension, that allows for the easy removal and replacement of the bottle by the rider, as well as in holding the bottle securely while retained in the cage during a ride. The mechanism is designed to remain safely operable even after multiple usages. The holder itself comprises a cage element with main and front support members. The cage element is mounted on the frame of a bicycle such that it is rotatable right and left, in a horizontal plane over and parallel to the frame. In this manner, the bottle retained in the holder may be easily removed for use during the ride, without loss of concentration or duress to the rider.
