Description

Cleaning pad and mop comprising same

Technical Field

The utility model belongs to the technical field of cleaning appliances, concretely relates to cleaning pad to and mop including this cleaning pad.

Background

It is known that there is a lot of dust entering the room from the outside, which is difficult to avoid every day, and the interior of the house becomes contaminated and no longer clean, especially the floor, and therefore, it is necessary to clean the room regularly in order to ensure that the floor of the room, such as a living room or a bedroom, is clean. Since the cleaning implement mainly used by people before is a wet rag, the cleaning implement has to be used for cleaning the floor in a squatting position, and side effects such as knee joint ache and lumbago are caused after a long time, modern people do not like cleaning the floor in the squatting position, and various cleaning implements for cleaning the floor in a standing position appear.

The most widely used of these cleaning implements is the mop, which is of many types and has different functions and advantages.

In recent years, as one of mops, the utilization rate of the flat mop is higher, and the flat mop panel adopts a flat plate design, so that the cleaning pad is in full contact with the ground, the force is uniformly applied, and the wiping area is increased to the maximum extent, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency; moreover, the mop can be rotated 360 degrees by operating the mop handle, so that the mop can be easily wiped to various places such as the bottom of a sofa and the bottom of a bed; in addition, the cleaning pad is generally made of two kinds of cloth, namely, fine cotton yarn and superfine fiber, so that dust between gaps and corners can be easily wiped off.

However, such a flat mop has a significant disadvantage in that the cleaning pad is required to be washed every time a cleaning work is performed in order to ensure a cleaning function, a user has to physically separate the cleaning pad from the mop plate, the user generally feels dislike in directly contacting the cleaning pad with dust and garbage, thereby creating a feeling of conflict, and in addition, the long and wide cleaning pad has a problem in that it is difficult to carry.

SUMMERY OF THE UTILITY MODEL

It is worth noting that the present invention aims to overcome one or more of the drawbacks that have been found in the background.

For this purpose, according to an aspect of the present invention, a cleaning pad is provided, which is implemented by the following technical solutions:

a cleaning pad comprising two pockets respectively provided at both ends of an upper surface of the cleaning pad, the pockets being oppositely arranged, and an attachment surface for adhering a mop faceplate being attached to an outer surface of each pocket.

The cleaning pad of the utility model is provided with two bags, the size of the bags can be designed according to specific requirements, on one hand, the cleaning pad is beneficial to easily inserting the needed objects into the cleaning pad, for example, the panels of the mop are allowed to be inserted into the cleaning pad, and the bag openings which are oppositely arranged are beneficial to fixing the cleaning pad by the panels of the mop; on the other hand, it is advantageous for the user to easily carry the cleaning pad with the bag, for example by lifting the entire cleaning pad by hooking the bag opening with a finger, thereby effectively solving the problem that a long and wide cleaning pad is difficult to carry.

In addition, because the bag is arranged on the upper surface of the cleaning pad, different from the lower surface of the cleaning pad, the upper surface of the cleaning pad where the bag is arranged basically does not contact dust and garbage, and therefore, when a user touches the bag with hands, the sanitation problem and the aversive psychology caused by the dust on the hands are avoided. The user can easily carry and clean the cleaning pad using the bag while avoiding direct touching of a large amount of dust and debris by hand.

In different embodiments of the cleaning pad according to the present invention, we may rely on one and/or more of the following configurations, alone or in combination:

in one embodiment, an attachment surface for attaching a mop panel is attached at a central region of the outer surface of each pocket. The attachment surface by the central region of the outer surface of each pocket allows the cleaning pad to be applied to any mop having a corresponding attachment surface, and provides for greater material savings and cost reduction. And since the attachment surfaces are provided at both ends of the cleaning pad, when the user lifts the mop, the central region of the cleaning pad sags under the influence of gravity so as to form a space between the central region of the cleaning pad and the mop, so that the user can insert his or her foot into the space and then lift the mop to separate the cleaning pad from the mop without removing the cleaning pad from the mop by hand, thereby facilitating the removal and installation of the cleaning pad. In this case, the cleaning pad may be a disposable item.

In one embodiment, the central region of the outer surface of each pocket is at a distance of at least 0.3cm from the outer edge of each pocket.

In one embodiment, the surface area of the two ends of the upper surface of the pad covered by the two pouches is between 1/10 and 1/3 of the total area of the upper surface of the pad.

In one embodiment, the central area of the outer surface of each pocket covered by the attachment surface for adhering a mop panel comprises between 1/8 and 1/2 of the total area of the outer surface of each pocket.

In one embodiment, each bag is made of a textile material, such material having a soft and comfortable feel.

In one embodiment, the attachment surface for attaching the mop panel is made of an adhesive material, such as velcro or the like, which is characterized by simple, convenient, quick to use, high adhesion, and wash-resistant properties.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a mop including any one of the cleaning pads as described above, further comprising:

a mop faceplate for securing a cleaning pad, an

The mop handle is arranged above the mop panel and is movably connected with the mop panel.

In different embodiments of the mop according to the present invention, we may rely on one and/or more of the following configurations:

in one embodiment, both ends of the lower surface of the mop panel comprise opposing attachment surfaces for adhering to an attachment surface of the cleaning pad, the attachment surface of the cleaning pad being interconnected with the opposing attachment surfaces of the mop panel. When a user lifts the entire mop by holding the mop handle, a gap is formed between the mop panel and the cleaning pad, the user can put one foot into the gap, and the user can easily separate the cleaning pad from the mop panel without directly contacting the cleaning pad with the hand by applying force together with the hand of the user holding the mop handle and the foot put into the gap.

In another embodiment, the mop faceplate has two ends that are inserted into the respective openings of the two pockets to secure the cleaning pad. When a user lifts the entire mop by holding the mop handle, the mop panel is deformed to be separated from the cleaning pad in accordance with the upward movement of the mop handle.

In another embodiment, one end of the mop faceplate is attached to the attachment surface of the mouth of one of the two pockets by an opposing attachment surface, and the other end of the mop faceplate is inserted into the mouth of the other of the two pockets to secure the cleaning pad. When a user lifts the whole mop by holding the mop handle, one end of the mop panel is deformed along with the upward movement of the mop handle so as to be separated from the cleaning pad, and then, the user places one foot on the upper surface of the cleaning pad, and the user can easily separate the cleaning pad from the other end of the mop panel by the combined force of the hand of the user holding the mop handle and the foot placed on the upper surface of the cleaning pad, without directly contacting the cleaning pad with the hand in the whole process.

To sum up, the utility model has the advantages that the cleaning pad is convenient to carry, and the cleaning pad and the mop panel are not required to be separated directly by hands.
