2. Description of the Related Art As an adhesive roll type cleaning tool of this type, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-1967, an adhesive roll for dusting is rotatably attached to the tip of a handle rod. It is known that a semi-cylindrical cover for covering the adhesive roll is attached so as to be slidable along the handle bar. The cleaning tool slides and locks the cover at a position where the adhesive roll is exposed to perform cleaning, and when cleaning is completed, returns the cover to a position where the adhesive roll is covered and hooks the cleaning tool in that state. It is hung on a stand or the like or is stored as a stand in which the cover is self-supporting.

However, in the above-mentioned conventional cleaning tool, since the entire adhesive roll is exposed to the outside at the time of cleaning, there is no problem in cleaning a wide space portion, but for example, cleaning the lower portion of the curtain. In such cases, the curtain clings to the adhesive roll and is difficult to clean,
There are problems that the dust collected by the adhesive roll touches the curtain and is peeled off, or is easily attached to the curtain to stain it.

In addition, when moving furniture or the like during cleaning, it is necessary to temporarily place the cleaning tool in an appropriate place. In this case, a dirty adhesive roll is used to clean the floor and the like. To prevent this, move the cover once to a position that covers the adhesive roll to make the cleaning tool self-supporting, and after finishing the work, slide the cover again to the position where the adhesive roll is exposed and lock it for cleaning. It had to be restarted and it was troublesome to handle. Further, the conventional cleaning tool has a cover wider than the diameter of the adhesive roll at an intermediate position of the handle bar at the time of cleaning. Therefore, for example, when cleaning a narrow space under the furniture, There is also a problem that the cover interferes and the handle bar cannot be tilted to an angle close to parallel to the floor surface.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The main object of the present invention is to enable the cover for covering the adhesive roll to be partially opened, so that it is possible to clean a hanging object such as a curtain without trouble. At the same time, another object of the present invention is to obtain a cleaning tool having good workability during cleaning, in which the adhesive roll can be easily leaned against a wall or the like without contacting the floor surface during cleaning. Another object of the present invention is to configure the cleaning tool so that it can be used by inclining it to an angle close to parallel to the floor surface.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the cleaning tool of the present invention is equipped with an adhesive roll rotatably attached to the tip of a handle rod for adhering dust thereto, and is self-supporting to cover the adhesive roll. A cover that also serves as a stand is attached, and the cover is composed of a pair of left and right cover parts that cover the diametrically opposite side surfaces of the adhesive roll, and these cover parts are individually openable and closable. It is characterized by having a height capable of holding the roll in a state of being separated from the floor surface. The cleaning tool with the above configuration is
Cleaning is performed with one or both of the pair of cover pieces open, and when the cleaning is completed, the cover pieces are closed to cover the adhesive roll, and in that state, the cleaning tool is hung on a hook or the like, or The cover is stored as a stand in a self-supporting state. Here, when cleaning with only one cover part piece open, there is a hanging object such as a curtain because the upper surface of the adhesive roll is covered with another non-open cover part piece. Also, the hanging object is prevented from coming into contact with the adhesive roll, and the place can be cleaned without any trouble. Also, during the cleaning, you can easily lean the cleaning tool on the wall etc. without the adhesive roll touching the floor by using the non-open cover part piece as a support. Just keep the cleaning tool in your hand and continue working. According to a specific configuration aspect of the present invention, each cover part piece in the cover is provided so as to be freely opened by pivoting and reversing upward by a hinge means,
