  • Patent number: 8312587
    Abstract: A self-rotating mop has a mop head, a rotating rod, an actuating assembly and a top pole. The rotating rod is connected securely to the mop head and has spiral channel. The actuating assembly is mounted between the rotating rod and the top pole and has an actuating sleeve and an actuating ring. The actuating sleeve has multiple upper ratchets, and the actuating ring has multiple lower ratchets and multiple curved ribs. The curved ribs of the actuating ring engage the spiral channel of the rotating rod. When the top pole is pushed downward, the upper and lower ratchets engage with each other to force the rotating rod to rotate and move upward. When the top pole is pulled upward, the upper and lower ratchets disengage with each other and the actuating ring is rotated to allow the top pole for moving upward.

  • Publication number: 20110247169
    Abstract: A mop bucket has a bucket body, a pintle, two holding units and a basket. The bucket body has a ledge and a mounting sleeve. The ledge is formed in a sidewall of the bucket body. The mounting sleeve is formed through the ledge. The pintle is mounted rotatably through the mounting sleeve. The holding units are mounted respectively in the end openings of the mounting sleeve and are mounted tightly around the pintle. The basket is attached securely to the pintle. With the ledge formed in the sidewall, the manufacturer easily assembles the structures without overturning the bucket body. By the holding units mounted separately, the pintle is stabilized while rotating.

  • Publication number: 20110192854
    Abstract: A cabinet assembly having at least one assembly unit and multiple cover plates. Each assembly unit has a tapered shell and mounting frame. The tapered shell is hollow and has a first end, a second end, multiple outer surfaces and multiple first fastener sets. A diameter of the second end is smaller than a diameter of the first end. Each multiple first fastener set is formed on a corresponding outer surface. The mounting frame is mounted around the second end of the tapered shell and has multiple exterior surfaces and multiple second fastener sets. Each exterior surface aligns with a corresponding outer surface of the tapered shell in a plane. Each second fastener set is formed on a corresponding exterior surface. The cover plates are detachably attached to the tapered shell and the mounting frame. The cabinet assembly is easily manufactured and assembled.

  • Patent number: 7744510
    Abstract: A waist exercising device has a waist cushion, a weight roundel and a centrifugal weight assembly. The weight roundel is mounted rotatably on the waist cushion and has a cavity defined in the weight roundel and a pivot shaft formed in the cavity. The centrifugal weight assembly is mounted in the cavity and has an arm and a weight. The arm is connected pivotally to the pivot shaft. The weight is connected to the arm and generates centrifugal force and has at least one detachable weight element. A beginner may use less weight elements and a skilled user more for tailored difficulty exercise.
