  • Patent number: 4964186
    Abstract: A mop head for use with a cleaning pad formed of a fibrous material, includes a plurality of lengths of string material and a band extending generally transverse to and bisecting the lengths of string material. At least one strip of pad fastening material having a plurality of resilient hooks formed therein is provided on the mop head for retaining a cleaning pad, of varying size of type, if desired, on the mop head. The hooks on the strip of pad retaining material are adapted to engage the fibrous material of the cleaning pad so as to retain the cleaning pad on the mop head adjacent the band. Thus, the cleaning pad is held to the mop head at a position in which the pad may be pressed against a floor surface by the mop handle so that sufficient pressure may be easily applied to the pad during a cleaning operation. The pad is removable for cleaning or replacement thereof. A method of constructing the mop head is also disclosed.
