Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a mop bucket, which permits to obtain clean water each time the user wets the mop.
  • Known mop buckets comprise a drainer, where the mop is wrung each time it is used.
  • the mop bucket is filled with clean water, optionally with a cleaning product if it is desired, the mop is placed into the clean water and the mop is wrung before mopping the ground.
  • the mop bucket of the present invention comprises a drainer where a cleaning element is wrung, and it is characterized in that it comprises the feactures of claim 1.
  • said drainer comprises a return spring that tends to place said drainer in the rest position.
  • said first and second deposits are communicated to each other by means of a siphon.
  • the mop bucket also comprises a valve to allow or to prevent the passage of the water from the first one to the second deposit.
  • This valve comprises, according to a preferred embodiment, a rod linked with a cover of said first deposit, so that the passage of water from the first to the second deposit is allowed only when the cover is placed in its position.
  • the mop bucket of the present invention also comprises an air conduit provided with a retardation valve of the passage of the water from the first to the second deposit.
  • this retardation valve is formed by a container provided with an orifice.
  • the internal operation of the bucket of the present invention is totally mechanic, so that it does not need any type of maintenance nor external power source.
  • the mop bucket of the present invention allows to save water.
  • the mop bucket of the present invention comprises a first deposit 2 of water supply, a second deposit 3 of clean water and a drainer 4 to using a mop.
  • the first deposit 2 is provided with a cover 5 and it communicates with the second deposit 3.
  • the function of this first deposit 2 is to accumulate water to supply it when it is necessary to the second deposit.
  • water in the present description makes reference to any type of suitable liquid to mop, like for example clean water, optionally with a cleaning product.
  • the second deposit 3 is communicated with said first deposit 2 and comprises a closing plug 6 at its lower part.
  • This closing plug 6 is vertically movable between a closing position and an opening position, and it is linked with the drainer 4 by means of a connecting rod 7, so that when the mop is wrung this closing plug 6 is placed in its opening position, draining the content of the second deposit 3.
  • the drainer 4 is vertically movable between a rest position and a use position, and it comprises a returning spring 8, that tends to place the drainer 4 in this rest position. It is due to the pressure that is made downwards when wringing, and the drainer 4 is placed in the use position against the action of the spring, this movement is transmitted to the closing plug 6 through the connecting rod 7.
  • the first 2 and second 3 deposits are communicated to each other by means of a siphon 12, so that the air intake is avoided from the second 3 to the first 2 deposits.
  • valve 9 which comprises a rod 10 linked to the cover 5 of the first deposit 2, so that the passage of water from the first deposit 2 to the second deposit 3 is only permitted when cover 5 is placed in its position.
  • This retardation valve 11 is formed by a container provided with an orifice, whose function will be described.
  • the operation of the mop bucket of the present invention for the user is basically the same one of any conventional mop bucket.
  • the first deposit 2 with water must be filled up to its maximum capacity. While it is being loaded, the valve 9 prevents the passage of water from the first deposit 2 to the second deposit 3.
  • the first deposit 2 When the first deposit 2 has been loaded, it is closed hermetically with the cover 5, driving the rod 10, and allowing the passage of an amount of water to the second deposit 3 through the siphon 12.
  • the air conduit 13 When the water in the second deposit 3 arrives to a predetermined level, the air conduit 13 is closed, creating an effect of vacuum in the first deposit 2 and preventing more water to pass to second deposit 3.
  • the mop bucket of the present invention is ready to be used. To do this, the mop is placed into the second deposit so that it is soaked, and then it is wrung in the drainer 4.
  • This displacement of the drainer 4 causes the movement of the plug 6 of second deposit 3 from its closing position to its opening position via the connecting rod 7. In this opening position of the plug 6, the water that already has been used leaves the second deposit 3 and it is accumulated in the bucket 1.
  • the drainer 4 When the user stops to wring the mop, the drainer 4 returns to its rest position by the action of the spring 8 and, consequently, the plug 6 moves from its opening position to its closing position.
  • the vacuum in the first deposit 2 is released, causing the second deposit 3 to be filled again automatically.
  • the air conduit 13 comprises a retardation valve 11 formed by a container provided with an orifice.
  • This container fills with water coming from the second deposit 3, which closes the air conduit 13.
  • the air conduit 13 does not allow the air passage until the content of the container has drained, which takes some seconds, since the water leaves only through this orifice.
  • the air conduit 13 allows the air passage, the air can already pass to first deposit 2, eliminating the vacuum and allowing the passage of the water through the siphon 12.
