Patent number: 12245732Abstract: A grip handle assembly for a mop includes a grip handle and a lever that is pivotally connected to the grip handle. The grip handle may include a grip handle body that includes a passage the extends through the grip handle body, a lever mount, and a lever stop, where the lever stop includes a central protrusion extending from the grip handle body, a first stop surface, and a second stop surface. The lever may comprise a grip portion, a first forward stop member, a second forward stop member, and a rear stop member. The lever can move to a released position or an engaged position. When the lever is in the released position, the first forward stop member may engage the first stop surface of the lever stop, and the second forward stop member may engage the second strop surface of the lever stop.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2023Date of Patent: March 11, 2025Assignee: The Libman CompanyInventors: Andrew D. Libman, Jon Franklin, Fernando de Jesus Santos, Marco Bizzotto

Publication number: 20250071068Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes calculating ideal resource apportionments from a current set of consumable resources for each of a plurality of reservations. Each reservation corresponds to one of a plurality of customers. The method further includes running an apportionment process relative to the plurality of reservations. The running includes attempting to apportionment for each reservation. Each customer's actual resource apportionment comprises a sum of the actual resource apportionments for the customer's reservations. In addition, the method includes, responsive to an indication of unapportioned resources following the running, performing a first optimization to increase resource utilization by at least one needy customer.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 9, 2024Publication date: February 27, 2025Applicant: MessageOne, Inc.Inventor: Jon Franklin Matousek

Patent number: 12088506Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes empirically analyzing, by a computer cluster comprising a plurality of computers, a set of active reservations and a current set of consumable resources belonging to a class of consumable resources. Each active reservation is of a managed task type and comprises a group of one or more tasks task requiring access to a consumable resource of the class. The method further includes, based on the empirically analyzing, clocking the set of active reservations each clocking cycle. The method also includes, responsive to the clocking, sorting, by the computer cluster, a priority queue of the set of active reservations.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2021Date of Patent: September 10, 2024Assignee: MESSAGEONE, INC.Inventor: Jon Franklin Matousek

Patent number: 11930977Abstract: Aspects described herein generally relate to a cleaning system, such as a cleaning implement with a primary cleaning member and a removable secondary cleaning member, in particular a mop assembly with a primary cleaning member and a removable secondary cleaning member. The primary cleaning member may be a sponge based cleaning member and the secondary cleaning member may be a scrubbing brush or similar handheld scrubbing member. The scrubbing brush may have an attachment member that includes a pair of rails and a tab assembly that helps to releasably connect the scrubbing brush to a connecting member of the mop assembly.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: The Libman CompanyInventors: Aaron Libman, Andrew D. Libman, Jon Franklin, Roberto Pellacini

Publication number: 20230404354Abstract: A spin mop and bucket system to assist in dewatering a mop is disclosed. The spin mop may have a handle assembly slidably connected with a spiral member, and a mop head that is attached to the spiral member. When the handle assembly moves along the spiral member, the spiral member rotates causing the mop head to rotate. The mop head may articulate relative to the handle assembly and may be pivotally connected to the spiral member and also pivotally connected to a swivel member located between the spiral member and a mop head base. The mop head may be received in a wringer basket of a bucket assembly, such that when the mop head spins, the wringer basket spins to expel any excess fluid from the mop head.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2023Publication date: December 21, 2023Applicant: The Libman CompanyInventors: Andrew D. Libman, Aaron Libman, Jon Franklin, Marco Bizzotto, Carlos Aguiar, Fernando de Jesus Santos
