Definitions

  • the invention relates to a wringing device for cleaning elements of wet and Wet wipers with a liquid-permeable holder, which is fixed by a holding frame to a container and in which a Cleaning element can be wrung out by pressing.
  • Such wringing devices are for cleaning floors in the household widespread. So-called mops are common, they are wet mops Damp wipers with a cleaning element at the end of a stick, for example absorbent strips, fringes or villi from one Textile material bundled into a mop head. To remove moisture the cleaning element must be wrung out in a device or be squeezed out. Wringing devices are common in which the Mop head from above with cleaning element hanging vertically downwards a wringing space open to the top is introduced. The ones from Liquid absorbed by the cleaning element is pressed, squeezed and / or wring removed. The wringing space is permeable to liquid and the dirty water runs into a located under the wringer Container. Wringing devices used in the household are mostly on the edge a cleaning bucket can be attached and the mop is pressed into a wrung out basket-like image.
  • Such a wringing device is known for example from EP 0 489 237.
  • the receptacle is a funnel-shaped squeeze basket with flexible, at a distance mutually arranged wall parts. These wall parts form an arc Spring legs with one end on the holding frame and the other End are merged into a bottom part.
  • the holding frame is at the top Fixed edge of a cleaning bucket. To wring out the mop we use this from inserted into the squeeze basket at the top. The pressing is done by Push in the mop. The liquid can only come from those strips removed, which are in the squeeze basket. Mop strips that the Introduce between or outside the flexible wall parts not squeezed.
  • the mop head is not mushroom-shaped, but, as is the case with a flat mop, approximately the shape of a Having ellipsoids, the wringing result is unsatisfactory previous wiping dirty water reaches at least partially back on the floor. If you want to prevent this and also pressing out textile strips on the outside is a precise insertion the strip in the basket is required.
  • the mop may have to be the squeeze basket are pressed in. This requires skill and patience makes efficient floor cleaning difficult.
  • the object of the present invention is a wringing device to further develop that the introduction of the cleaning element and the Wring out better than before, but it is still inexpensive.
  • the cleaning element can be fed to the receptacle through an insertion funnel which is separate from the receptacle and which can be fixed on the holding frame.
  • the separate parts make it possible to provide a large diameter for insertion and a small diameter for wringing out in the squeeze basket. Due to the separation of duties, the construction of the wringer basket and that of the insertion aid are decoupled.
  • the upstream insertion funnel forms a centering for the villi or strips of the mop hanging vertically downwards. The unbroken, frustoconical surface of the insertion funnel guides the mop bundle completely into the wringing basket.
  • the bundling means that hardly any cleaning elements remain outside the wringing basket. When pressed in, all of the liquid absorbed during the previous wiping process is removed from the textile strips. Absorbed dirty water no longer gets back on the floor. With the insertion funnel as an upstream auxiliary device, the insertion and consequently wringing out of the cleaning element is more successful. Cleaning the floor is faster and more efficient.
  • the holder and the insertion funnel are inexpensive produced. With a suitable shape, they have a high packing density stackable, which reduces transport and storage costs.
  • the specialist is responsible for fixing the insertion funnel to the holding frame a number of connection options are available.
  • the introductory funnel can on the holding frame, for example, by a clamping device or by a snap lock must be set.
  • the insertion funnel has a conical jacket part and a integrally formed support frame which is firmly connected to the holding frame. This allows the receptacle and the insertion funnel to be separate components manufactured and stored and transported at low cost. Just before Delivery to the customer, the components are firmly connected. You are with it joined captively during use.
  • connection between the receptacle and the insertion funnel is preferably a non-detachable plug or snap connection or can Welded or adhesive connection.
  • the wringing device represents a mass article used in the household. It is favorable if the jacket part and / or the support frame have openings has and so material and weight is saved. These breakthroughs are the shape and size should be such that the villi or stripes are not in it tangled.
  • the geometrical shape of the openings in the jacket part and Support frame can be used to advantage on the shape of the mop be coordinated. In this way, the aesthetic form of the is reflected Mops in the wringer, which is appealing to the user can be included.
  • a conical jacket part is preferred, which has a horizontal plane encloses an angle between 15 ° and 70 °. This way you achieve a very good supply and that draining dirty water in the wringing basket is good flows.
  • a very good bundling effect can be achieved through the conical jacket part in particular if a lower edge has a lower passage area encloses the congruent or smaller to an upper edge of the shot is trained. Through these at least congruent passages you achieve that the villi of the cleaning element between Do not tangle the squeeze basket and insertion funnel. With a longer one Service life can be the top of the shot due to the Constrict the plastic deformation of the individual spring legs of the holder. As long as the lower passage area is smaller than that of the upper edge of the Is limited area, the centering effect of the funnel remains receive.
  • the cone-like shell part and the support frame are rotationally symmetrical about an axis and the diameter of the upper edge of the jacket part is 1.2 times to 2 times larger than that Diameter of the lower passage area.
  • the wringing device can be designed with low costs Manufacture plastic. Efficient floor cleaning is especially important then given when the receptacle is designed with flexible, moldable wall parts which reduce their clear width when pressing in the cleaning element or enlarge.
  • FIG. 1 shows a sectional drawing of a first embodiment of the Wringing device according to the invention in which the receptacle 1 as Wringing basket is formed and by a holding frame 5 on one below lying container 6 is set.
  • the wringing or squeezing basket 1 is a Introductory funnel 2, which is supported by a support frame 3 on the holding frame 5 is set.
  • the drawing in FIG. 5 preferably shows the connection between Insertion funnel and holding frame as a clamp or adhesive connection between an approach on the support frame 5 and the support frame 3.
  • the connection but can also by a sweat or by an insoluble Snap connection are formed.
  • a one-piece is also conceivable Execution.
  • the Spring elements 10 press against the strips of the cleaning element.
  • FIG. 1 is this squeezing by arrows, one pointing down and two in Direction of the axis of symmetry 12, pointing into the interior of the wringing basket, indicated schematically.
  • the dirty water squeezed out during squeezing flows between the spring elements 10 in the bucket 6.
  • the conical jacket part 7 has openings 15, the shape and size of which is selected, however, that the villi or fringes of the mop are safely in the center of the Wringing container are guided and not tangled.
  • Melted Dirty water is drained into the bucket 6 through holes 16 in the holding frame 5. As can easily be seen in FIG.
  • the funnel part 7 includes an angle 14 with the horizontal 13, the preferably between 15 and 70 °, particularly preferred.
  • FIG. 2 shows a second preferred embodiment of the wringing device according to the invention in a sectional view.
  • the mop is inserted into the wringing device from above and passes through the passage areas 17 and 18, the base areas of the truncated cone-shaped insertion funnel 2.
  • Width of the spring elements 10 of the receiving basket 1 causes.
  • the downward squeezing movement causes the tulip-shaped spring elements 10 of the squeezing basket 1 to deflect laterally Holding frame 5, for example by holding claws, not shown, is attached.
  • the insertion funnel 2 is spaced from the apex 9 of the squeezing basket 1.
  • Feed funnels 2 and holding frames 5 are preferably separate parts.
  • a snap connection 4 is shown, which fixes the support frame 3 on the holding frame 5.
  • the insertion funnel 2 is thus firmly connected to the receptacle 1.
  • the snap connection can be made detachable but also non-detachable. With regard to costs, it is advantageous that both components are manufactured separately in simple tools and are very easy to stack during delivery and intermediate storage. The transport and storage costs are therefore low.
  • the insertion funnel 2 is mounted on the holding frame 5 only before delivery to the customer.
  • An undetachable snap connection has the advantage that the insertion funnel is captively attached to the receptacle.
  • openings 15 are preferably provided on the conical jacket part 7 and / or on the support frame 3.
  • the openings 15 preferably show a company or product logo or reflect the shape of the mop.
  • the conical jacket part 7 of the insertion funnel 2 is in no way open limits the rotationally symmetrical surface area of the cone. So how mentioned above, the upper edge 17 and / or the lower edge 8 by one Polygonal be formed, or the lateral surface to the direction of insertion of the mop be convex or concave. As in the embodiment in FIG. 1 is described, which is formed by the vertices of the spring elements 10 upper edge 9 of the squeeze basket 1 from the lower edge 8 of the conical Shell part 7 spaced, whereby according to the invention in the constructive Design of the device, the tasks of squeezing and that of the lighter Feed of the cleaning element are decoupled.
  • the invention is in no way based on recordings with elastic wall elements Press room limited, but also records images of their press room is formed, for example, by a sieve cup.
