Abstract
A squeegee frame that has almost snap replaceable blades so they can be easily flipped upside down to increase the life of the blades by 100%. The blades are adjoined to two flexible winglets that prevent fluid and debris from going around the blade in both the forward and backward movement of the squeegee providing the squeegee blades with more efficient use of a bi-directional squeegee.
Claims8
A squeegee mop or wiper sweep with reversible wiper blade comprising:
- a frame from more or less an extruded shaped cross section having sides and mid frame blade inserts;
- a flexible attachment coupling the frame to a sweep handle;
- at least one squeegee blade with two sides firmly held in parallel to the frame extruded dimension with inserts and at least two pin or rivet type connectors;
- a first blade side snuggly adjacent to the frame and a second blade side snuggly adjacent to a flat plate or strip along the frame cross section extruded dimension, and
- the two detachable pin holders perpendicular to and sandwiching the blade between the frame back and plate or strip more or less mid-way on the blade height dimension
- whereby a blade can be easily edge reversed to use the unworn blade edge for doubling the blade life without extra work in doing the flip.
