Abstract
A flexible dust mop is disclosed which includes an elongate handle which preferably includes a telescoping portion. The handle is formed with an upper, rigid, non-flexible upper portion and a lower flexible portion secured to the rigid portion. The flexible handle portion terminates downwardly in a bottom connector which includes a pivotal connection and a first ratchet. A dust mop head is pivotally secured to the handle at the pivotal connection and includes a second ratchet which is engageable with the first ratchet. Once the dust mop head is pivotally moved in angular relationship to the handle, the interengagement between the first and second ratchets serves as a detent to tend to maintain the dust mop in the angularly adjusted position.
