Abstract (en)

[origin: US2006200931A1] Disclosed is a method for producing a mopping cover ( 1 ) for a mop ( 2 ) comprising a support ( 3 ) and the mopping cover ( 1 ) which at least partly encloses the support ( 3 ). Said support ( 3 ) is provided with triangular faces ( 6, 7 ) that extend away from each other like arrows on two opposite sides ( 4, 5 ) and are disposed in congruent, triangular insertion pockets ( 8, 9 ) of the mopping cover when properly using the mop ( 2 ). The imaginary extensions of the lateral lines ( 10, 11; 12, 13 ) of the faces ( 6, 7 ) and the insertion pockets ( 8, 9 ) are arranged essentially perpendicular to each other while angularly intersecting each other, respectively. The insertion pockets ( 8, 9 ) are formed by the mopping cover ( 1 ), are embodied as a single piece, and are made of the same material as the mopping cover ( 1 ). Each of the insertion pockets ( 8, 9 ) encompasses only one seam ( 14, 15 ) for forming the insertion pockets ( 8, 9 ), said seam extending in a vertical direction from the tip ( 16, 17 ) located on the face to the respective ground line ( 18, 19 ) thereof. In a first step of the inventive method, a rectangular planar structure ( 20 ) that substantially corresponds to the width and length of the support ( 3 ) is folded along half the width ( 22 ) thereof in the longitudinal direction ( 21 ). In a second step, the superimposed faces ( 24, 25; 26 27 ) that represent half the width and are disposed perpendicular to the folding line ( 23 ) are connected to each other on the faces. In another step, the fold ( 28 ) is folded open so as to create a planar mopping surface ( 29 ), the insertion pockets ( 8, 9 ) being automatically created when the fold ( 28 ) is folded open.
