ABSTRACT:
A self-squeezing mop employing a linear squeezing action to remove liquid carried by stranded, non-woven absorbent material. The mop has a mop head attached to a handle and a cylinder which travels between extended and retracted positions. A squeeze ring is located on one end of the cylinder and is sized to compress and shape the stranded absorbent material as it travels from the retracted to the extended position. The squeeze ring comprises a plurality of angularly disposed stationary rollers. The rollers have contact surfaces which engage and compress the strands of the mop head. The strands are made of non-woven material with sufficient body to resist bunching in the cylinder as the cylinder moves from the extended to the retracted position.
