Description

Device for the metered and surface filling of a box in which mop covers are prepared and transported. , .

The mop boxes are usually filled by measuring the required amount of water in buckets, measuring cups or stationary electronically controlled dosing stations, then adding a certain amount of cleaning chemicals to it and pouring the resulting mixture through a box with perforations on the bottom of the mop box. The amount of cleaning chemicals and the mixture and the even distribution depend greatly on the care of the operating personnel.

The invention described in claim 1 is based on the problem of creating a device that creates a specific, variable amount of a water-cleaning agent mixture independently of a power supply and distributes it evenly over the entire mop box surface. The amount and percentage composition of the mixture should be adjustable and have a high degree of repeatability. The device should prevent users from coming into contact with cleaning chemicals.

This problem is solved with the features listed in claim 1.

The device ensures that the exact amount of chemicals can be maintained and a precise amount of the mixture is evenly distributed across the mop box. Direct contact with cleaning chemicals is avoided and the closed design means that no water or mixture is splashed.

Thanks to its small dimensions and low weight, the device can be easily carried to other locations. At the location, all that is needed is a water hose to supply the device. The chemical bottle connection allows cleaning agents to be changed quickly.

An embodiment of the invention is explained using Figures 1 to 3. They show:

Figure 3 a possible time setting device

The WMB is placed on a container filled with mop covers and, if not already done, a bottle of cleaning chemicals is attached to the chemical bottle connection. A water hose is connected to the pressure reducer to supply the WMB.

The desired mixture quantity is now selected on the adjustment wheel.

The amount of cleaning chemicals can only be preselected by authorized persons. By quickly moving the hand lever to the base plate, the valve opens and the oil damper and spring are deflected. When the base plate is reached, the lever must be released immediately.

After the hand lever is released, the spring force returns it to its original position. When the valve is opened, water flows through the rigid pipe system into the space between the base plate and the distributor plate. This creates a negative pressure in the pipe system due to the flow. A cleaning fluid is sucked in through the flexible pipe at the outlet of the valve via the dosing valve and the chemical bottle connection. The check valve built into the chemical bottle connection prevents the cleaning chemical from running back into the bottle. The amount of cleaning chemical can be changed using the dosing valve.
The mixture is now evenly distributed and runs through the holes in the distribution plate onto the mop pads.

The WMB can now be moved to a container that is to be refilled without interrupting the water connection or the connection to the chemical bottle. By moving the hand lever, the container is refilled.

Claims (2)

1. Device for the metered and surface filling of a container in which mop covers are prepared and transported, consisting of a hose coupling, a pressure reducer, a valve, a trigger, a flexible and a rigid line, a dosing valve, a time setting device and a chemical bottle connection, a base plate and a distributor plate, characterized in that
that a pressure reducer ( 2 ) is attached to a hose coupling ( 1 ), which allows an easy connection to commercially available water hoses, which ensures a constant water pressure, to which in turn a valve ( 3 ) is attached, which opens when a trigger ( 4 ) is actuated.
When the trigger ( 4 ) is operated, a timer (7) is activated, which closes the valve ( 3 ) after a certain, adjustable period of time. A cleaning fluid is sucked in via the dosing valve ( 6 ) and the chemical bottle connection ( 8 ) through a flexible line ( 5 ) attached to the outlet of the valve ( 3 ). The check valve built into the chemical bottle connection ( 8 ) prevents the cleaning chemical from running back into the bottle. The amount of cleaning chemical can be continuously changed using the dosing valve ( 6 ). The mixture thus created now passes through a rigid line ( 10 ) into the space between the base plate ( 11 ) and the distributor plate ( 12 ). From there, the mixture passes evenly through the holes in the distributor plate ( 12 ) into the mop box.
The components are covered by the lid ( 13 ) with integrated bottle holder. The operator only has access to the trigger ( 4 ), the setting button ( 14 ) of the time setting device ( 7 ) and the chemical bottle connection ( 8 ) for changing the cleaning agent bottles. The dosing valve ( 6 ) can only be operated by authorized personnel using a key. 2. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the pressure reducer ( 2 ) together with the valve ( 3 ), the flexible line ( 5 ) and the metering valve ( 6 ) form a metering unit without using the remaining features for this purpose.
