ABSTRACT:
A floor mop has a carrier plate (1), on which two U-shaped frame parts (5, 6) are mounted for receiving a removable cover (20), which is provided with flexible plastic parts reinforcing the lengthwise edges. One frame part (6) is pivotably supported in the carrier plate (1) to pivot about a crosswise axis (A). It is held in its extended position by a locking protrusion (11). To pivot the frame part (6) for removing the cover (20), a lever (12) is supported on the carrier plate (1) pivotable about an axis (B, 15). The lever engages the frame part (6) at a point (13) which is located at a distance from the axis (B, 15) and from the lock (11). When the lever (12) is pressed downwardly, e.g. by stepping on it, the frame part (6) is pivoted downwardly and the legs of the U-frame spread, thus overcoming the locking effect of the locking means (11).
