Abstract

A lightweight, easily portable apparatus for treating a mop head, dust cloth and the like with a dust attracting liquid includes a lightweight plastic container having spaced walls and an open top for holding a quantity of the liquid and a lightweight, removable frame structure fitted onto the container whereby the frame structure is separable from the container for cleaning, storage and handling. The frame structure has a front portion with a plate member thereon for supporting the mop head and said plate may be transparent whereby the condition and quantity of liquid in the container can be visually determined. Spaced arm members are connected to a rear portion of the frame structure adjacent opposite side walls of the container and have lower portions extending downwardly into the interior of the container and upper portions extending upwardly from the container. Horizontally disposed upper and lower roller members are rotatably supported on the arm members, the lower roller member being adjacent to the lower portions and having contact with the liquid for coating thereby and the upper roller member being movably mounted in the upper portions for movement toward and away from contact with the lower roller member. In operation, the mop head passes between the upper and lower roller members and a quantity of the dust attracting liquid applied thereto. An electric motor is operatively connected to the lower roller member for powered rotation thereof.
