Abstract: The instant cleaning implement is of disposable construction for use with a mop frame or the like. It comprises a plurality of flexible absorbent elements joined together along an astricting connective alignment that is intermediate to the edges of said elements, each of which has a core portion comprising polymeric material. The implement has a pliant cleaning section comprising a group of rows of those portions of the absorbent elements that project from one side of the alignment in a configuration which is generally fan-like in vertical cross section. The process for making the implement comprises stacking the absorbent elements, then joining them along an astricting connective alignment which can be symmetric or asymmetric with respect to the resulting stack.

Abstract: A securement system of the type for mounting an object, such as a hammock, snow skis or the like to a support member or to one another including an elongated flexible body member having inner and outer sections. The inner section including a portion made from a polymeric fabric material and a frictional gripping member made from a rubber material having angularly disposed corrugations adapted for frictional gripping engagement with the support member, and the outer section including Velcro mating portions to provide a coupling for holding the body member in a closed condition.
