Abstract:
A head (1) for a strip mop comprises a hollow dome-shaped body (3) which is attachable at its top to one end of an elongate mop handle (4). Web material is secured within the body (3) so that a portion hangs down from the base of the dome-shaped body to provide the cleaning substrate (2) of the mop. To facilitate access to confined areas of a surface that is being cleaned, such as corners, the base of the dome-shaped body (3) of the mop head has the general form of an equilateral triangle. A spacer (17, Fig. 4) is provided between two adjacent layers of the web material within the dome-shaped body, to enhance the volume of the cleaning substrate (2); and a peripheral skirt (8) of a more resilient material is provided at the base of the wall of the dome-shaped body (3) to reduce the risk of damage to surfaces that might be impacted by the mop head (1) when in use.
Abstract:
A wall mountable shelf assembly includes an elongated support rail, at least one accessory slidaby connected with the support rail, and at least one stretch releasing adhesive strip arranged between the support rail and the wall for securing the shelf assembly to the wall.
Abstract:
A dispenser includes an upper member having a slot and a lower member attached to the upper member thereby forming a housing, the lower member having an outer surface; a stack of sheets assembled in a fan-fold configuration disposed in the housing; anda polymeric holding film having a first surface attached to the outer surface of the lower member. The holding film having a flexural modulus less than about 50 MPa, as measured according to ASTMD790 standard, and a roughness parameter, Ra of less than about 1 micrometer, as calculated according to ASME B46.1 standard.
Abstract:
A dispenser for a pad of repositionable notes is provided. The dispenser includes (a) a base having opposing interior and exterior surfaces; (b) a cover having opposing interior and exterior surfaces and two slots disposed substantially orthogonal to one another, the slots being sized to allow for dispensing individual repositionable notes from the pad, the cover disposed on the base forming a cavity; and (c) a biasing mechanism disposed in the cavity.
Abstract:
An article support device for vertical mounting on a wall surface includes a base plate having opposed front and rear major surfaces, an upper edge, a lower edge, a first side edge, and a second side edge, and a cover plate having opposed front and rear major surfaces, an upper edge, a lower edge, a first side edge, and a second side edge. The base plate front surface and the cover plate rear surface include a raised connecting portion and a cooperating recess configured to engage by horizontal sliding engagement such that when the device is mounted vertically on a wall surface, any load applied to the cover plate creates a force in a direction generally perpendicular to the direction of horizontal sliding engagement between the base plate and the cover plate. A method of mounting a hook on a vertical surface using the article support device is also disclosed.
Abstract:
The inventive tape dispenser (10) includes a cover (30) and a base (50) . The cover includes a forward section (31) , a saddle (32) , a rounded back section(33) , and first and second sidewalls (34, 35) extending downwardly from the forward section and saddle. The forward section of the cover includes a first end (36) from which a means (37) for cutting extends. The base (50) includes a semicircular tape holding portion(51) having a first side (54) opposite a second side (55) , a mounting surface (52) and an inner surface. The inner surface (53) of the base includes a means (56) for gripping the dispenser. The base also includes an arm(60) , a land area(70) extending at an angle from the arm and an edge (80) extending an angle from the land area. The edge is disposed substantially parallel to and proximate to the second sidewall (35) of the cover (30) .
