Abstract:     A cleaning tool is formed with a base, a woven backing fabric secured to the base, and a monofilament of resilient resin woven into the backing fabric so that lengths of the monofilament turn away from the plane of the backing fabric and extend outward from the backing fabric at a predetermined uniform angles to form a sparse pile of bristles stiff enough to stand free and resiliently self-supporting in a regular array for cleaning.

Show all 12 claims
We claim:     1. A cleaning tool comprising:
  • a. a base formed of material supporting said tool for cleaning;
  • b. a woven cloth backing fabric;
  • c. means for securing said backing fabric to said base;
  • d. a monofilament of resilient resin woven into said backing fabric in a W weave configuration;
  • e. lengths of said monofilament turning from the plane of said backing fabric and extending away from the face of said backing fabric opposite said base;
  • f. said lengths of said monofilament being set at substantially predetermined angles to the plane of said backing fabric at points of said turning to form the outside legs of said W weave configuration;
  • g. said turning points being spaced across said backing fabric so that bristle portions of said lengths of said monofilaments extending beyond said turning points away from said backing fabric form a sparse, bristle pile;
  • h. said bristle portions of said monofilaments being substantially straight and uniform in length;
  • i. said monofilament being sufficiently stiff so that said bristle portions stand freely and resiliently self-supporting at substantially said predetermined angles in a regular array to serve as cleaning elements; and
  • j. said predetermined angles of said W weave legs are substantially equal and oppositely oriented.
