ABSTRACT:
A compact collapsible squeegee for wiping fluids from smooth surfaces including a telescoping handle having a hinged joint at one end and a wiper support attached to the hinged joint to pivot from a closed position with the wiper support substantially parallel to the telescoping handle to an open position with the wiper support substantially perpendicular to the telescoping handle. Latches may be used to secure both the telescoping handle and the wiper support in the open position such that the squeegee is substantially rigid in use. Both the telescoping handle and the hinged joint may be spring-loaded to automate deployment of the squeegee to the open position. The telescoping handle and wiper support may be stored in the closed position within a hollow grip attached to the telescoping handle and including ventilation for drying.
