Abstract

The cleaning cloth has a core (4) of sponge material with upper and lower layers of microfiber material (2). These have a different structure and are glued to the core with adhesive layers (3) which have an open pore structure.

Description

object The innovation is a microfiber sponge cloth according to the generic term of the protection claim 1.

With the subject of JP 2000083884 A, a tool with a sponge body has become known, where the sponge body covered on its front with a non-woven textile material is.

One such sponge cloth is used for cleaning sanitary articles.

The Cleaning effect is however insufficient, because a non-woven Textile structure (eg a felt structure or another textile structure) is not suitable for absorbing strongly adhering dirt from surfaces and tie to yourself.

Besides that is the durability of such textile structures insufficient, because they have a short lifespan and are not washable.

It So are disposable items that have a short life exhibit.

With the subject of JP 08154882 A is described a mop for cleaning floors, in which the sponge body consists of an unspecified textile fiber mixture, which is surrounded on its outside by a synthetic fiber. Again, there is the disadvantage of insufficient cleaning effect, the poor water absorption capacity, the short life and unspecified described attachment of the textile fiber on the surface of the sponge body.

With the publication DE 103 27 584 A1 a double-sided sponge cloth is disclosed, which has on its first side a microfiber material and on its second side a leather or synthetic leather for cleaning.

These Reference has the disadvantage that this is the feature of a Sponge cloth with double-sided microfiber can not be removed is.

With the publication of the utility model DE 200 11 242 U1 is disclosed a sponge body, which is covered on its upper side with a microfiber layer, wherein this is arranged in a microfibers having sheath, which has a completely arranged seam seam.

These Reference has the disadvantage that on the one hand the end faces the sponge body is not lie freely and for additional Cleaning tasks available stand and that at a rupture of the seam, the enveloping microfiber cloth of the sponge body replaces.

With The document DE 20 2004 013 199 U1 is a sponge body for Cleaning of keyboards disclosed in which the top layer a microfiber cloth which is glued to a hard intermediate layer which in turn is on a softer sponge layer is attached.

These Document has the disadvantage that due to the different mounting surfaces this is a lack of stability of cleaning sponge train.

With the publication DE 76 36 186 U1 discloses a cleaning sponge having a foam core, which is preferably provided on its surface with a laminated fleece containing embedded in plastic grinding wheels, which have different hardness, grain size and density.

This Reference is not apparent that on the surfaces of Foam core each a microfiber cloth with a completely different Textile structure attached as a nonwoven.

With JP 2000-0 83884 A discloses a wiping tool for cleaning from wall panels, walls, Building floors, furniture and the like, wherein the cleaning without water or detergent and without damage he follows. The tool has a sponge material on which a surface As a cover material of ultrafine fibers rests.

These Reference has the disadvantage that on the textile structures of the Cover material no further features can be found.

Of the Innovation is therefore the object of a sponge cloth educate the aforementioned type so that it is essential higher life Washable and has an improved cleaning effect.

to solution the task is the innovation by the features of the protection claim 1 marked.

at the given technical teaching gives the essential advantage that now renewal the benefits a microfiber cloth combined with the advantages of a sponge body become what was not yet known.

The advantage of a microfiber cloth is that It has excellent cleaning power, durability and good soil-binding property.

One By the way, microfiber cloth can pick up the water quickly and transport it quickly. Out For this reason, it is particularly inventive, such a microfiber cloth to combine with a highly water-absorbent sponge body, because the quickly absorbed by the microfiber cloth and quickly released again Water in the sponge body is involved and is recorded there.

In order to For the first time there is the advantage of an excellent cleaning ability, a long life and a good dirt binding capacity at the same time with a high water absorption capacity.

In A preferred embodiment of the innovation, it is intended that the microfiber cloth over each an adhesive layer with the surface of the sponge body connected is.

A such adhesive layer should preferably be made of an open-cell adhesive to prevent the passage of water too much.

Instead of a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer can but also other connection options be used, such as. B. a hot lamination, a cold lamination, the setting of individual connection points due to welding of laser rays. Instead of using laser beams can also with fine high pressure water jets corresponding connection channels between the microfiber cloth and the sponge body are injected.

Instead of the above surface bonding methods can also sewing method be used, with a corresponding, suitable sewing thread through the microfiber cloth penetrates and in the sponge body layer is anchored.

In In another embodiment, it may also be provided that the Microfiber cloth is sewn on both sides of the sponge body, or by lockstitch / chain stitch knotted on the back / devoured is.

The by sewing of the sewing thread by both spaced apart microfiber cloths can either punctiform, linear or in the range of different geometric structures.

The Advantages of a microfibre cloth are the innovation in particular in that it is a very fine yarn in the range of 80 to 350 Denier is in the total of about 1200 to 1300 microfibers available.

each Fiber prefers a starch from about 0.1 to 0.9 denier and consequently has one gram of this Fiber a length from about 50 kilometers.

Of the Subject of the present invention does not arise only from the subject matter of the individual claims, but also from the combination the individual claims among themselves.

All in the documents, including Summary of information and features, in particular the spatial training shown in the drawings as claimed essential to the invention, as far as they individually or in Combination opposite the prior art are new.

in the The following is the innovation of only one execution way illustrative drawings closer explained. Here are more from the drawings and their description essential features and benefits of the innovation.

It demonstrate:

1 : enlarged - not to scale - cut through a microfiber sponge cloth after innovation;

2 : a gradual enlargement of the microfiber structures in three different representations;

3 : the process of dirt and water absorption with the novel microfiber sponge cloth;

4 : Function of water absorption in the novel sponge cloth.

According to 1 consists of the renewal microfiber sponge cloth 1 from an upper and a lower microfibre cloth 2 which may consist of different textile bindings.

In a first embodiment, it is provided that the upper lower microfiber cloth 2 is woven. Alternatively, the textile structure may also be formed as a felt, ie have a non-woven structure.

In the exemplary embodiment shown, the respective microfiber cloth is over an open-pore adhesive layer 3 with the surface of the sponge body 4 connected.

The sponge body 4 preferably consists of an open-cell PU foam. Instead, other cold foams can be used, which have a high water absorption capacity.

Viscose sponges can also be used as a sponge body. It is also important here that open cells 5 available.

As mentioned above, the textile structure 6 of the microfiber cloth 2 be formed in the above four different embodiments.

It can also be provided that the upper microfiber cloth 2 another textile structure 6 has as the lower microfiber cloth 2 so as to double use the microfiber sponge cloth 1 to enable.

Based on 2 Now the structure of a microfiber is explained in more detail.

A simple yarn thread 7 a microfiber includes a tube structure of a plurality of fibrils, wherein in the embodiment shown about 98 Virilen are present per yarn thread.

If you enlarge a fibril 8th like this in 2 shown above, the magnification shows that a Virile in turn has a tube structure of a variety of fibers 9 includes. It can be up to 12 Fibers may be arranged in the cross section of such a fibril.

Each fiber has the above strength of z. B. 0.2 denier and one enlarges such a fiber, as in 2 bottom right, one comes to an enlarged fiber structure with a plurality of sectors 10 , which are renewal formed from two different plastic materials. These plastic materials are preferably polyester 13 and polyamide 14 ,

In the upper embodiment of the magnification after 2 is recognizable that the sector boundaries 11 through the polyamide 14 are formed while filling 12 of the respective sector 10 is formed by the polyester.

• 1. 80 % PE mit 20 % PA
• 2. 70% PE und 30% PA
• 3. 50% PE und 50% PA
• 4. 0% PE und 100% PA
• 5. 100% PE und 0% PA

In this way, every fiber exists 9 from a proportion of polyester and polyamide, the following mixing ratios being claimed as inventive:

• 1. 80% PE with 20% PA
• 2. 70% PE and 30% PA
• 3. 50% PE and 50% PA
• 4. 0% PE and 100% PA
• 5. 100% PE and 0% PA

It also all transitions between the above mixing ratios claimed as essential to the invention.

Of the Material content of the polyamide supports water absorption and the more material part of this PA is contained, the water absorption improved.

Conversely, the proportion of polyester increases the cleaning ability and the dust-binding ability, so that there are a variety of possibilities, the properties of the Mikrofaserfuches 2 to change.

Based on 3 Such a water and dirt collecting process is shown schematically.

Will be a microfiber sponge cloth 1 to 1 for example in the direction of the arrow 17 moved on a surface, then first the dirt particles 15 from the bottom microfiber cloth 2 taken and tied there.

The drops of water also present on the surface 16 be first in the structure of the microfiber cloth 2 according to 4 recorded and then in the direction of the arrow 18 introduced into the overlying sponge body and tied there.

In order to For the first time the special advantage of an excellent results Cleanability at high durability and good dirt binding, while at the same time a high water absorption capacity given is.

It is self-evident possible, that the surface the microfiber cloths can be structured in any way. It can be colored, stamped or otherwise deformed three-dimensionally, to the brushing ability even further increase.
