Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of household utensils, and in particular to a mop that supports the waist. Background Technology
[0002] Mops are an essential cleaning tool in people's lives, used to clean dirt from the floor with a cloth. However, to clean the hard-to-reach corners and deep areas under beds and sofas, ordinary mops require bending over to reach them, sometimes even requiring kneeling. This is inconvenient, especially for people with herniated discs. While some existing foldable mops can be adjusted to reach under beds and sofas, reducing bending burden, their angle is limited, making them unsuitable for cleaning under beds and sofas of varying heights and depths. Furthermore, when folded, the lower part of the handle is unstable, causing the mop head to wobble or dangle when on the ground, leading to incomplete cleaning and other issues, thus reducing their practicality. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a back-supporting mop that can change and adjust the angle of the mop handle in a wide range, helping people to clean deep places such as under beds and sofas where the height is limited, reducing the burden on the waist and cleaning more thoroughly.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A back-supporting mop, comprising an upper rod, a telescopic rod, and a mop head disposed at the bottom of the telescopic rod;
[0006] The bottom end of the upper rod is provided with a first rotating seat, and the upper end of the telescopic rod is provided with a second rotating seat. The ends of the first rotating seat and the second rotating seat that are close to each other are provided with circumferentially distributed locking teeth. When the first rotating seat and the second rotating seat are in close contact, they are engaged by the locking teeth.
[0007] A knob screw and a corresponding locking knob are also connected at the center of the engagement point of the first and second rotating seats. When the locking knob is loosened, the first and second rotating seats can rotate relative to each other and then engage through the misalignment of the locking teeth to adjust the angle between the upper rod and the telescopic rod. Tightening the locking knob and the knob screw can completely press the first and second rotating seats together.
[0008] Furthermore, the ends of the first and second rotating seats that are close to each other are both extended into arc-shaped joint heads. The locking teeth are all arranged in a circle and are circumferentially arranged on the side where the two arc-shaped joint heads are close to each other. When the two arc-shaped joint heads are close together, they can be engaged by the misalignment of their respective locking teeth. When the two arc-shaped joint heads are separated, they can rotate relative to each other.
[0009] Furthermore, both the first rotating seat and the second rotating seat have locking planes formed on opposite sides, and the knob screw and locking knob can be locked tightly against the locking planes.
[0010] Furthermore, a handle is provided at the top of the upper rod.
[0011] Furthermore, the handle is provided with a hook hole.
[0012] Furthermore, the mop head is rotatably mounted on the bottom end of the telescopic rod via an adapter.
[0013] Furthermore, the head of the knob screw and the surface of the locking knob are both provided with anti-slip texture.
[0014] Furthermore, both the bottom end of the upper rod and the upper end of the telescopic rod are provided with screws, and both the upper end of the first rotating seat and the bottom end of the second rotating seat are provided with screw holes that are compatible with the screws.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. This utility model features a segmented design of the upper rod and the telescopic rod. The angle between the upper rod and the telescopic rod can be adjusted by the relative rotation of the first and second rotating seats through the engagement of the locking teeth. The rod is then locked in place by a knob screw and a locking knob. This design allows for thorough cleaning of hard-to-reach or deep areas with height limitations, such as under beds and sofas. The cleaning is more thorough, eliminating the need to bend over to mop, making life more convenient, reducing back strain, and improving efficiency.
[0017] 2. This utility model, through the engagement of the first and second rotating seats, allows the upper rod and the telescopic rod to be precisely adjusted in terms of their included angle, which can be flexibly adjusted according to the height of the bed under the sofa, making it more in line with the human body's exertion and comfort points.
[0018] 3. This utility model, through the engagement of the first and second rotating seats, can change and adjust the angle of the upper rod and the telescopic rod over a wide range, while ensuring the stability of the connection between the upper rod and the telescopic rod. In addition, the tightening of the knob screw and the locking knob further improves the overall stability and strength after fixing the angle, making it easier and more stable to exert force when mopping, and cleaning more thoroughly.
[0019] 4. The lower section of this utility model features a telescopic rod design, combined with an adjustable angle for the upper rod and the telescopic rod.

[0025] To make the content of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.
[0026] like Figure 1-4 As shown in this embodiment, a back-supporting mop is provided, which mainly consists of an upper rod 1, a telescopic rod 2, a first rotating seat 3, a second rotating seat 4, a knob screw 5, a locking knob 6, and a mop head 7. The first rotating seat 3 is installed at the bottom of the upper rod 1, the second rotating seat 4 is installed at the top of the telescopic rod 2, and the mop head 7 is installed at the bottom of the telescopic rod 2. When the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 4 are in contact, they are engaged by a locking tooth 300. When the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 4 are separated, they can rotate relative to each other to change and adjust the angle between the upper rod 1 and the telescopic rod 2. The knob screw 5 passes through the center of the engagement point of the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 4, and its other end is threaded into the locking knob 6. Tightening the locking knob 6 and the knob screw 5 can completely press the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 4 together to achieve fixation.
[0027] Specifically, arc-shaped joint heads 30 are extended from the adjacent ends of the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 4, enabling large-angle rotation and preventing interference. A ring of circumferentially arranged locking teeth 300 is formed on the inner sidewalls of the two adjacent arc-shaped joint heads 30, allowing them to engage in a staggered manner. That is, when the two arc-shaped joint heads 30 are close together, they can engage through their respective locking teeth 300; when the two arc-shaped joint heads 30 are separated, they can rotate relative to each other, thereby driving the upper rod 1 and the telescopic rod 2 to adjust their angle. When the appropriate angle is reached, the two arc-shaped joint heads 30 are brought together again to re-engage. More precisely, the knob screw 5 passes through the two arc-shaped joint heads 30. When the locking knob 6 and the knob screw 5 are loosened, the two arc-shaped joint heads 30 can be separated for rotational adjustment; after the angle adjustment is complete, the two arc-shaped joint heads 30 are brought together again, and the locking knob 6 and the knob screw 5 are tightened, thereby completely pressing and fixing the relative positions of the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 4. Thus, through the engagement of the locking teeth 300 of the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 4, the angles of the upper rod 1 and the telescopic rod 2 can be adjusted over a wide range. At the same time, the stability of the connection between the upper rod 1 and the telescopic rod 2 can be ensured. With the tightening of the knob screw 5 and the locking knob 6, the overall stability and strength after fixing the angle are further improved, making it easier and more stable to exert force when mopping, and cleaning more thoroughly.
[0028] In this embodiment, the segmented design of the upper rod 1 and the telescopic rod 2, along with the engagement of the locking teeth 300 between the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 4, allows for relative rotation to adjust the angle between the upper rod 1 and the telescopic rod 2. These are then locked using the knob screw 5 and the locking knob 6. This design enables thorough cleaning of hard-to-reach or deep areas with height limitations, such as under beds and sofas, eliminating the need for bending over to mop, simplifying daily life, reducing back strain, and improving efficiency. Furthermore, the locking teeth 300 can be configured with scales, allowing for precise adjustment of the angle between the upper rod 1 and the telescopic rod 2. This allows for flexible adjustment based on the height of the bed or sofa under different heights, better aligning with human strength and comfort. Additionally, the lower section of the telescopic rod 2, combined with the adjustable angle of the upper rod 1 and the telescopic rod 2, allows for flexible length adjustment based on the different heights and depths of the bed or sofa under the bed, making cleaning more convenient and thorough.
[0029] In order to facilitate the clamping of the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 4, a locking plane 400 is formed on the opposite side of the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 4 in this embodiment. The knob screw 5 and the locking knob 6 can be tightly attached to the locking plane 400 for locking. The locking plane 400 can ensure the clamping force and prevent slippage and loosening.
[0030] To facilitate gripping and cleaning, a handle 8 is provided at the top of the upper rod 1 in this embodiment. Additionally, to facilitate drying the mop, a hook hole 80 is provided on the handle 8.
[0031] To facilitate the replacement of the mop head 7, the bottom end of the telescopic rod 2 in this embodiment is rotatably mounted with the mop head 7 via an adapter 70, thus making it easy to disassemble and replace the mop head 7. Simultaneously, to facilitate the maintenance and replacement of the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 4, screws 10 are provided at the bottom end of the upper rod body 1 and the upper end of the telescopic rod 2. Screw holes 40, compatible with the screws 10, are provided at the upper end of the first rotating seat 3 and the bottom end of the second rotating seat 4. That is, the upper rod body 1 is assembled with the screw hole 40 of the first rotating seat 3 via the screw 10, and the telescopic rod 2 is assembled with the screw hole 40 of the second rotating seat 4 via the screw 10, facilitating quick disassembly and assembly of components and promoting rapid maintenance.
[0032] In addition, in order to facilitate the rotation of the knob screw 5 and the locking knob 6, anti-slip textures 60 are provided on the head of the knob screw 5 and the surface of the locking knob 6 in this embodiment to increase the friction.
