Abstract:
A cleaning implement includes a joint for attaching the handle to a cleaning end and permitting two opposing sides of the cleaning end to be used to clean a surface. The joint is constructed in a manner that permits the desired movement of the cleaning end, but also utilizes few components and has a structure that permits quick and simple assembly. The cleaning end can include features that enhance its strength and stability. In addition, the cleaning end can include features that enhance the transfer of fluid from one side of the cleaning end to the opposing side of the cleaning end. Further, the cleaning end can include features that promote the drying of a cleaning material attached to the cleaning end after use.
Abstract:
A hand-operated punch with adjustable assembly punch units and a slipper to receive punched out discs in which the assembly units are adjustable from the bottom through an opening in the slipper. The punch includes a strengthening flap configuration and the assembly units slide but do not turn during adjustment.

Abstract:
A spray mop comprising a handle, a spray housing, a cleaning end, and a bottle. The spray housing can be coupled to the handle and can include a nozzle. The cleaning end can be coupled to the handle and the spray housing. The bottle can be removeably coupled to the spray housing and can have a body for enclosing a fluid. The body can have a first end and a second end. The bottle can have a shroud disposed at the second end. The shroud can have a support surface for supporting the bottle in an upright position when the bottle has been removed from the spray housing such that the bottle can be filled with a fluid at the first end. The spray mop may have a pump mechanism with a reload spring disposed outside of a fluid chamber. The nozzle can be removeable from the spray housing.
Abstract:
A punch head includes a punch pin and a punch housing supporting the punch pin. The punch housing includes a slot for receiving one or more workpieces to be punched. The slot defines a stack height SH. The punch housing further includes first and second walls, at least one of the first and second walls defining a wall thickness T. Each of the first and second walls also includes an aperture for receiving a pivot pin coupling a punch pin actuation member to the punch housing. A ratio of the wall thickness T to the stack height SH is greater than 0.9.
