A dust mop frame that includes an elongate body member having a first elongate face and an opposed second elongate face. The elongate body member includes a central body region and at least one projection. The at least one projection has a first region that is connected to the planar central body region, a central region extending angularly outward from the first region at an orientation parallel to the longitudinal axis and an outer terminal edge. The outer terminal edge of the projection is oriented upward relative to the second elongate face of the central body region when the dust mop frame is in the use position. The dust mop also includes at least one handle attachment member connected to the first elongate face; and at least one mop head bundle attachment mechanism connected to the second elongate face.

A cleaning tool comprising a handle assembly and a pad assembly. The pad assembly is coupled to the handle assembly such that the handle assembly extends distally beyond a first end of the pad assembly. The pad assembly includes a pad securing surface having a plurality of pad securing members extending substantially perpendicularly from the pad securing surface, and a slotted member located at a second end of the pad assembly, the second end being opposite the first end. The slotted member defines a slot configured to accept a cleaning pad, and the slotted member extends at an angle from the pad securing surface.

A mop head includes: fringe-shaped cleaning textiles; and a cap-shaped carrier body. The cleaning textiles are secured to the carrier body. At least some of the cleaning textiles are interconnected by an integral bond and are combined to form a pre-assemblable unit. The pre-assemblable unit and the carrier body are interconnected.

The present invention provides a mop head comprising: a mop head frame formed with a plurality of concave connecting portion, a narrow connecting portion of each concave connecting portion includes a first set of protruding elements, a first hollow portion, a second set of protruding elements and a second hollow portion; and a cleaning member. The first set of protruding elements and second set of protruding elements of the narrow connecting portion clamp the cleaning member. The first hollow portion and the second hollow portion provide space that allows the cleaning member be firmly punched in concave connecting portion without damaging the narrow connecting portion by a punch.

A cleaning article for cleaning a target surface. The cleaning article has tow fibers attached to a carrier sheet. The tow fibers are advantageously provided with an exterior coating. The coating is applied in an amount sufficient to be efficacious, but not wasteful or which leaves residue. The amount of coating is correlated with the amount of moisture in the tow.

A cleaning tool includes a shaft extending from a proximal end to a distal end, where the shaft has a handle at the proximal end and a tool head at the distal end; and a sock removably mountable on the tool head. The tool head may include a through hole, and the sock may include a fastener with a first coupling member and a second coupling member, where the first and second coupling members are constructed to align with and couple through the through hole on the tool head. Alternatively the tool head includes one or more coupling members and the sock includes one or more corresponding coupling members constructed align with and couple with the one or more coupling members on the tool head.
