Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a mop device, and more particularly to a mop device having an abrasive surface member changeably or detachably attached to the mop device. [0003] 2. Description of the Prior Art [0004] Various kinds of typical mop devices have been developed and provided for mopping the ground or the surfaces to be cleaned, and normally comprise a spongy member solidly attached to a support element, for cleaning purposes. [0005] For example, U.S. Pat. No. 5,483,720 to Decoopman et al. discloses one of the typical mop devices which also comprises a spongy member solidly attached to a support element, for cleaning purposes. The spongy member may not be detached or disengaged from the support element, and thus may not be changed with the new ones when the previous spongy member has been damaged or worn out. [0006] U.S. Pat. No. 5,488,750 to Vosbikian et al. discloses another typical mop device comprisin...
