Definitions

the present invention relates to a cleaning device, in particular for wet and wet wiping, with a support group which has a handle and a wiping plate, and with a cleaning element which can be fastened to a wiping plate to form at least one connecting region in such a way that it is at least partially separated from it is pivotable away.
a cleaning element of a mop consists, for example, of a multiplicity of absorbent fabric strips or a multiplicity of absorbent yarns, which are fastened together at the end of a broomstick.
the dampened fabric strips or yarns bind soil dirt when they are moved over a floor to be cleaned. After cleaning the floor, the fabric strips or the yarns are immersed in clean cleaning liquid such as cleaning water and rinsed out.
the German utility model G 84 17 307.6 discloses a hollow sieve to be placed on a commercially available cleaning bucket, into which a mop can be inserted, the fabric strips of which have soaked with cleaning liquid.
the user of the mop exerts a pressure from above by pressing the handle of the mop into the hollow screen onto the fabric strips, so that they are pressed together in the hollow screen.
the cleaning liquid contained in the fabric strips pressed out so that it can flow into the bucket provided under the hollow sieve.
This solution has the disadvantage that a large force is required to squeeze out the fabric strips of the mop. Furthermore, there is always the risk of disadvantageous deformation of the hollow screen or the undesired knocking over of the cleaning bucket.
a further development of the aforementioned hollow sieve whereby according to this further development the force required to express the fabric strips of the mop is reduced.
a hollow screen is provided, which can be deformed transversely to the pressing direction as a result of the force acting when the fabric strips are pressed into the hollow screen, reducing its clear width and compressing the fabric strips of the mop.
the pressing force acting in the pressing-in direction of the mop is also converted into a component acting laterally on the fabric strips of the mop.
a disadvantage of the aforementioned hollow screen is that it is particularly susceptible to malfunctions due to its additional mobility. So it often happens that the hollow sieve is pressed through a holder essential for the compression.
the hollow sieve frequently gets stuck to the tissue strips of the mop after pulling out the fabric strips of the mop and subsequently falls into the bucket for the cleaning liquid provided under the hollow sieve.
the two aforementioned malfunctions restrict the suitability of the known wet wiping system to a considerable extent.
a generic cleaning device has a support group or a mop holder which has a handle or a handle and a wiper plate.
the wiper plate is divided in the middle in the area of the attachment of the handle in such a way that two jointly movable wiper plate halves are formed which fold down like wings when the support group is lifted.
a flat cleaning element or a mop cover is attached to each outer end of a wiper plate half that points away from the common center.
the wiper plate halves of the wiper plate collapse along their movable center line, so that the cleaning element is carried only by the fabric strips provided at the ends of the wiper plate half, forming an arc from the ends of the Wiper plate halves hanging down.
the cleaning element can be inserted into a lever press, wherein the cleaning liquid present in the cleaning element can subsequently be squeezed out.
the generic cleaning device is particularly disadvantageous that an expensive and space-consuming lever press must be available for pressing out the cleaning element.
Another disadvantage is that the cleaning element must be attached to the wiper plate in a cumbersome manner.
the structure of the generic cleaning device is also complicated, so that its operation is cumbersome.
the wiper plate has a contact surface in at least one holding area, which is designed such that the cleaning element can be compressed between the contact surface and at least one counter surface when pivoted away from the wiper plate.
the cleaning element configured as mentioned above, it is particularly easy to squeeze out the cleaning liquid contained in the cleaning element, which in particular has a sponge, a tissue, such as cloths or rags, yarns or by bundles of the aforementioned cleaning elements.
the invention is based on the idea that the force applied by the user of the cleaning device can be converted particularly effectively into a pressing force for pressing out the cleaning element by means of a special contact surface.
the counter surface is in particular formed by another object, such as through the bottom of a bucket or through a hollow sieve known in the prior art. Furthermore, it is conceivable that the counter surface is itself formed by the floor surface to be cleaned.
the cleaning element provided on the device configured as mentioned above can be pressed out in a particularly simple and easy manner, the pressing out being particularly easy to start when the contact surface is arranged substantially perpendicular to the surface of the wiper plate facing the cleaning element and is just trained.
an inclined arrangement of the contact surface with respect to the surface of the wiper plate is also possible.
a clamping device is designed to fasten the cleaning element to the wiper plate, the clamping device being able to have a releasable clamping strip which interacts with a counter strip.
the cleaning element can be fastened in a particularly simple manner between a detachable clamping strip and a counter strip by inserting it between the clamping strip and the clamping strip detached therefrom, whereupon the cleaning element is clamped between the clamping strip and counter strip.
the clamping bar is pivotally articulated on the counter bar, at least one locking device for the releasable connection of the clamping and Counter bar is provided, which can also be designed as a snap connection or as a hook connection. This considerably simplifies the operation of the clamping device.
the cleaning device according to the invention can be operated more easily if the support group additionally has a connecting element for connecting the handle and the wiper plate, the connecting element in particular being able to have a joint which can be pivoted in one plane.
the joint can also be pivotable in two planes, as is the case when the joint is designed as a double joint.
a particularly simple operation of the cleaning device according to the invention results when the joint is arranged in the area of the center of gravity of the wiper plate, it being particularly advantageous if the joint is arranged such that the wiper plate is raised when the handle is raised and when the wiper plate is pivoted away State of the cleaning element is substantially between the handle and cleaning element. In this state, the cleaning element is at the bottom, while essentially only the wiper plate extends between the handle and the cleaning element.
the cleaning element located under the wiping plate can be quickly pressed together, whereby simple operation and effective pressing out of the cleaning element is achieved without the cleaning element having to be touched by hand.
a fastening assembly is provided in the connecting element with which the handle can be attached. This can be achieved, for example, by means of a screw thread, a clamp connection or a transverse bore with a pin which can be fastened in a broom handle in particular.
a particularly advantageous embodiment of the wiper plate has an essentially trapezoidal outline.
a cleaning device with a wiper plate with the aforementioned layout is suitable for easy and precise cleaning of hidden surfaces. It increases the stability of the cleaning device according to the invention when the Wiper plate on its side facing away from the cleaning element has stiffening elements, in particular in the form of stiffening ribs.
a wiper plate designed as mentioned above can be manufactured particularly easily from plastic.
a cleaning element according to the invention in particular a mop cover, which is intended in particular for use in a cleaning device according to one of claims 1 to 22, has an essentially flat base fabric and a cleaning fabric provided on one side of the base fabric, both a base fabric section with cleaning fabric and a Basic fabric section without cleaning fabric is provided.
the base fabric section which has no cleaning fabric, can be easily attached to the wiper plate due to its smaller thickness and because of its greater flexibility, especially if it has a clamping device according to the invention.
the base fabric section with cleaning fabric can be designed as a pile fabric, the pile fabric having a pile with a pile length between 5 mm and 20 mm.
the base fabric section with cleaning fabric can also have a fabric with tufted loops, it also being possible to provide a fabric with sewn-on fringe and / or loop webs.
the aforementioned fabrics have particularly good cleaning properties, and cleaning-active textile fibers can also be used. These fibers can consist of natural fibers, such as cotton or viscose, or also of synthetic fibers, such as polyester or polyamide, or of combinations of the aforementioned types of fibers.
the cleaning fabric according to the invention has in particular a section with a trapezoidal outline, which simplifies the cleaning of even hard-to-reach places.
the cleaning element according to the invention can also have a section with a square outline, which can merge into an area which is designed such that the cleaning element in this area has a basic fabric section without cleaning fabric, with which the cleaning element, as already explained above, is particularly simple and reliable a clamping device can be attached. This enables simple handling of the cleaning element according to the invention and, in particular, secure attachment in the cleaning device according to the invention.
the cleaning element can be pressed out in a particularly simple manner, with the cleaning device according to the invention making it possible to clean floors reliably and quickly.
a secure connection of the squeeze basket with the container for the cleaning liquid is obtained when the squeeze basket has contact surfaces with hooks that can be hooked under the edge of a bucket. This counteracts an overturning of the bucket due to a careless movement of the user of the cleaning system according to the invention when the cleaning element is pressed out.
the inventive method for pressing out the cleaning element achieves simple and reliable separation of the cleaning liquid present in the cleaning element.
the cleaning device in particular for wet and wet wiping, has a supporting group with a handle and with a wiper plate and a cleaning element which can be connected to the wiper plate to form at least two connecting areas, wiper plate and the cleaning element are designed such that the cleaning element can be fastened to the wiper plate in at least a first connecting area such that they can be pivoted relative to one another, and the cleaning element and the wiping plate are designed in at least one second connecting area so that they are there on the wiper plate pivoted state of the cleaning element in the direction of the surface of the wiper plate facing the cleaning element together form a coherent connection, while in a direction transverse to the aforementioned surface, in particular in the sense of each other are flexible that it is possible to separate them in a simple manner.
This special design of the cleaning device according to the invention ensures that the cleaning element is pivotally connected to the wiper plate in a first region, while the wiper plate in another region of the cleaning element is not firmly connected to the wiper plate, but in particular can only be brought into engagement with it .
the condition in which the cleaning element is firmly engaged with the wiper plate is preferably present when the cleaning device according to the invention is in the cleaning position on a floor surface. Then it is ensured by the formation of the wiper plate and cleaning element that the cleaning element cannot move transversely to the surface of the wiper plate in the region in which the wiper plate engages with the cleaning element. This enables the cleaning element to be guided precisely on the floor to be cleaned.
the cleaning element and wiper plate When the wiper plate is lifted from the floor surface to be cleaned, the cleaning element and wiper plate preferably detach themselves from one another, so that the cleaning element hanging freely from the wiper plate downward for pressing out the cleaning fluid stored in it can be used in a corresponding device without it as in wiping systems known in the prior art would have to be removed from the wiping plate. This avoids an expensive attachment of the cleaning element to the wiper plate while nevertheless, the cleaning element can be easily cleaned without having to touch it by hand.
a particularly reliable function of the cleaning device according to the invention is obtained if a clamping device is designed to fasten the cleaning element to the wiper plate.
This clamping device can be developed in particular in accordance with one of the claims 5 to 11 described above.
the cleaning element has a base fabric and a cleaning fabric provided on the base fabric, both a base fabric section with cleaning fabric and a base fabric section without cleaning fabric being provided on both sides of the base fabric.
the cleaning element has a base fabric and a cleaning fabric provided on the base fabric, both a base fabric section with cleaning fabric and a base fabric section without cleaning fabric being provided on both sides of the base fabric.
the aforementioned design of the cleaning element also ensures that there is a coherent connection of the cleaning element with the wiper plate when the cleaning element is pivoted to the wiper plate, since the cleaning fabric provided on the base fabric then counteracts a lateral movement of the wiper plate. This counteracts a displacement of the wiper plate and cleaning element, so that the cleaning device according to the invention is easier to handle.
the cleaning element is designed such that when the cleaning element is fastened in the clamping device and pivoted onto the wiper plate, the surface of the wiper plate facing the cleaning element is in contact with the cleaning fabric. Then the cleaning fabric located under the wiper plate is pressed together on the base fabric, while the upright cleaning fabric located next to it counteracts a lateral displacement of the wiper plate.
the cleaning device according to the invention designed as above can be designed in accordance with claims 12 to 30 with regard to the connection of handle and wiper plate, with regard to the design of the wiper plate and with regard to the design of the cleaning element. It is also possible to use a cleaning device to provide, which in addition to the features of claims 34 to 39 also includes the features of claims 1 to 3. Such a cleaning device according to the invention combines the advantages of easy pressing out of the cleaning element with the advantages of easy handling during cleaning and when moving into a state before the cleaning element is pressed out.
a cleaning element according to the invention can be produced particularly simply and inexpensively, the function in the cleaning device according to the invention and in the cleaning system according to the invention being ensured.
a particularly wear-resistant cleaning element can be achieved if at least one binding tape and / or at least one binding seam are provided on the edges of the cleaning element during the course of production.
