Abstract: A hand held mop, broom or scrubber device in which the cleaning head has two cleaning elements. In one embodiment, a self-wringing mop having an elongated handle with a rigid base frame assembly is attached to the bottom end. The base frame has opposite planar surfaces with a sponge element on one of the surfaces and a scrubbing element on the opposite surface. The base frame is pivotally connected to the bottom of the elongated handle such that it pivots between two positions; a first position with the sponge oriented on the floor and a second position in which the scrubbing element is positioned on the floor. An actuator mounted on the lower half of the handle has a roller mechanism and a spaced force opposing member mounted on an end thereof. When the sponge element is saturated, the user slides the actuator towards the bottom of the elongated handle. This causes the base frame assembly to pivot to an intermediary sponge wringing position and the sponge element is drawn past the roller mechanism.

Abstract: A broom for cleaning a surface having a bristle cleaning mechanism. The broom has a handle with a grasping end and a cleaning end. At the cleaning end is a comb member having a plurality of tines. The comb member pivots into and out of engagement with the bristles as a sleeve or handle is moved along the broom handle. The tines engage the bristles as the grasping portion is pushed downward such that the tines push trapped dirt and dust out from the bristle ends. As the slidable sleeve is pulled back into its original position, the tines disengage from the bristles and return to their original position.
