Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cleaning glove according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • cleaning objects with smooth and / or porous surfaces made of absorbent base materials are known, which are used for example in the form of cleaning cloths, cleaning pads, cleaning gloves or the like for wiping, drying and / or polishing.
  • the disadvantage of such cleaning objects is that stubborn dirt is difficult or impossible to remove.
  • cleaning objects made of abrasive materials are known which are suitable for removing stubborn dirt. Such cleaning objects for removing stubborn dirt have the disadvantage that they cannot be used for wiping, drying and / or polishing.
  • cleaning gloves EP 05 46 426 A1, EP 03 338 034 B1
  • cleaning surfaces made of the known absorbent base materials with smooth and / or porous surfaces as well as larger surfaces with a non-woven abrasive surface Such a combination of surfaces made of an absorbent base material with abrasively designed surfaces is intended to combine advantages with regard to the cleaning effect of the two individual solutions, the handling of the abrasive surfaces being designed to be convenient for the user by appropriate design of the sponge parts.
  • a cleaning glove according to the invention essentially consists of two cover surfaces arranged parallel to one another with closed side edges, a closed narrow side and a slip opening opposite this narrow side for a hand guiding the cleaning glove.
  • the cover surfaces of the cleaning glove are made of a carrier material in a manner known per se formed from absorbent material, preferably a sponge material, wherein materials with different cleaning properties can also be arranged on the cover surfaces in the area of the external cleaning surfaces.
  • the cover surfaces are elastically connected in the area of the insertion opening, this connection preferably being formed starting from the narrow side in the area of the insertion opening.
  • the elastic connection of the cover surfaces is formed by elastic bands arranged on their edges. In this way, by selecting different elasticities and the orientation of such strips, an elasticity of the connection of the two cover surfaces, which accommodates a wide range of reversibility, can be created.
  • the sponge-like inner surfaces of the cleaning glove have different cleaning properties than the outer surfaces, wherein the inner surfaces themselves or parts thereof can in turn be designed differently from one another with regard to their cleaning action.
  • connection of the two cover surfaces which is not in the area of the elastic connection, can preferably be formed in a manner known per se by a circumferential seam or by a sewn-in binding tape.
  • the seam can be inside or designed externally based on the normal position of the glove.
  • At least one top surface is coated with an abrasive substance.
  • a cover surface of the cleaning glove can be covered with a net-like structure.
  • This net-like structure is formed in a particularly preferred embodiment by a knitted fabric made of threads and / or ribbons, which has an increased abrasive effect against z. B. has dirt particles of a surface to be cleaned.
  • This increased abrasive effect is caused by the type of laying used in the knitting of the net-like structure, in which parts of the threads and / or ribbons protrude from the knitted fabric and thus form a multiplicity of abrasively effective edges and projections. This large number of abrasively effective edges and projections come into contact with the dirt particles and improve the absorption and removal of the dirt particles by the cleaning glove.
  • the size of the abrasive effect of the threads and / or ribbons can be adjustable in a particularly advantageous manner by influencing the laying process when knitting.
  • the abrasive net-like structure with such threads and / or tapes is held only in the region of the side edges of the cover surfaces, the knitted fabric preferably being held on the carrier material with the circumferential seam or the binding tape.
  • the at least one cover surface is covered only in the area of the outer edges of the glove with the net-like structure made of abrasive threads and / or ribbons, which means that even in narrow edges or corners a particularly high one Cleaning effect can be achieved.
  • at least one top surface can additionally or alternatively be covered in the area of the knuckles of the hand guiding the cleaning glove or the ball of the hand with the net-like structure made of abrasive threads and / or ribbons.
  • the drawing shows particularly preferred embodiments.
  • FIG. 1 shows a cleaning glove according to the invention, which consists of two top surfaces 1 arranged one above the other, these sponge-like top surfaces 1 being covered on the top surface 1 in FIG. 1 with a net-like structure 5 made of abrasive threads and / or ribbons.
  • the cleaning glove is essentially rectangular, a connection between the two cover surfaces 1 being able to be produced on the two longitudinal edges in two ways.
  • an elastically stretchable band 2 is arranged, which are each sewn to the two cover surfaces 1 and thus attached to them.
  • the elastic resilience of the bands 2 allows the cover surfaces 1 to be lifted apart and pulled apart in this area, so that on the one hand the insertion opening 11 is enlarged and on the other hand the turning over of the cleaning glove is facilitated in the manner described below.
  • circumferential seams 6 or binding bands 6 are indicated which, in a manner known per se, largely largely firmly connect the two cover surfaces 1 to one another.
  • This circumferential seam 6 or the binding tape 6 can also be arranged on the short side of the cleaning glove opposite the insertion opening 11. Along the slip opening 11, the cleaning glove is closed by an edge edging 7.
  • a net-like structure 5 made of abrasive threads and / or ribbons in the form of a grid is applied to the top cover surface 1 of the cleaning glove, the threads and / or ribbons resting completely on the cover surface 1 with this but is only connected in the area of the circumferential seam 6 or the binding tape 6 and the elastic tapes 2.
  • the structure of the cleaning glove is shown more clearly in a cross section in FIG. 2.
  • the cleaning glove is formed in its cross section from two sponge-like cover surfaces 1, the top and bottom in Figure 2 with a cleaning surface 3, z. B. an artificial leather surface, and a cleaning surface 4, z. B. the already described abrasive, net-like structure 5 is occupied.
  • the sponge-like cover surface 1 of the top is connected to the sponge-like cover surface 1 of the underside of the cleaning glove by means of the elastic bands 2 which have already been described in more detail and which can be seen in this cross section along the line AA in FIG. 1.
  • the cover surfaces 1 and thus the cleaning surfaces 3 and 4 arranged on the cover surfaces 1 can be lifted apart, so that on the one hand the slipping in of the hand 8 (not shown in FIG. 2) is facilitated.
  • the cleaning glove can easily be turned inside out, so that the inside, sponge-like cover surfaces 1, when turned, are on the outside and are therefore available for use.
  • the cleaning surfaces 3 and 4 which in the normal state are located outside, then lie inside the cleaning glove.
  • the elastic bands 2 shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 extend along the longitudinal edges of the cleaning glove at least as far from the insertion opening 11 that the cleaning glove can be easily turned without the cleaning glove itself being too soft when enclosing the cleaning glove leading hand becomes 8.
  • FIG. 3 the cleaning glove according to the invention is shown in an embodiment which corresponds to FIGS. 1 and 2, but the occupancy of a top cover surface 1 shown in FIG. 1 over the entire surface by a net-like structure 5 made of abrasive threads and / or ribbons in the Figure 3 only takes place in selected partial areas of the top surface 1. Areas of the top surfaces 1 selected in this way are the edge regions with which narrow, dirty edges are usually cleaned, for example for household applications, this arrangement of the abrasive partial surfaces 9 on the edges good accessibility of such narrow areas to be cleaned is guaranteed.
  • such abrasive partial areas 9 can also be arranged in the area of the knuckles of the hand 8, as a result of which a particularly good development of force can be achieved by the hand 8, which is clenched into a fist, for example.
  • Areas 10 of this type can also be arranged in the area of the ball of the hand 8 to increase the force, since this ensures good power development with simultaneous elasticity of the area of the ball of the hand.
