  • Patent number: 6728990
    Abstract: A mop receptacle for use with dish mops and floor mops which allows the user to strain the excess cleaning solution from the mop head without contacting the mop head or actuating any levers or other mechanicals. The receptacle is substantially cylindrical in shape with a tapered wall section which compresses the mop head as it passes through straining any excess cleaning solution from the mop head. The smooth inside walls leading to the tapered wall section can also be used to drain cleaning solution from the mop head by pressing the head against the walls via the mop handle forcing the mop head to compress further.

  • Patent number: 6101635
    Abstract: This invention relates to an improved women's stocking and stocking support that utilizes a stocking support belt encircling the hip area of the wearer having only one affixing point on each side and a pair of normally cut (elongated to the wearer's crotch) individual stockings, each of which is made of a stretchable nylon material, wherein each stocking is affixed, via stitching, to the outside hip area so that the stockings may be held in place comfortably for long, extended wear while remaining, because of the stretchability of the material, firmly and attractively in place between the crotch area of the wearer, the leg portions, and the hip areas. Other articles of clothing such as tank tops or bodysuits can also be used as support members for the stretchable hose.
