Definitions

  • the invention relates to hand-operated mopping device for floors, consisting of a chassis with a handle at working height having a guide rail and at least one support and guide element arranged in the direction of travel in front and a support carried by the chassis, transversely to and in the direction of travel behind the support and Guide element arranged wiper strip.
  • the chassis has a length of approximately 20 cm in the direction of travel and the wiper strip has a length of approximately 1 m.
  • two steering rollers are arranged at a distance from one another as support and guide elements.
  • the guide bar extends from the center of the chassis at an angle of approximately 45 °.
  • the handle of the spar lies on the side of the strip facing away from the guide rollers in a plane perpendicular to the direction of travel, the distance from the wiper strip being a multiple of the distance between the wiper strip and the guide rollers.
  • the invention has for its object to simplify the wiper of the type mentioned in terms of its handling.
  • the introduction of the force exerted by the operator into the wiper device is not critical, because due to the geometrical assignment of the handle, the wiper strip and the support and guide element to one another, there is more of a drag effect on the wiper strip than a sliding effect, as is the case with State of the art is the case. Therefore, the wiper can be guided more precisely and achieve a uniform wiping effect.
  • the wiper strip lies between the plane perpendicular to the direction of travel, in which the handle lies, and the support and guide element.
  • the distance of the chassis between the support and guide element and the wiper strip is adjustable, is particularly telescopic.
  • the support and guide element should be designed as a roller.
  • the role should be freely steerable.
  • two support and guide elements arranged at a distance from one another should be provided.
  • the wiper strip In order to collect the water when wiping, the wiper strip can have slightly angled ends in the direction of travel or be slightly curved.
  • the wiper device shown in the drawing in side view has a chassis 1 made of two telescoping tubes 2a, 2b arranged at a distance from one another.
  • a guide bar 3 consisting of telescopic tubes 3 a , 3 b is connected to the chassis 1 with a handle 4 arranged at the working height of the operator.
  • support and guide elements 5 designed as freely steerable rollers are arranged on the chassis 1.
  • the chassis 1 At its rear end in the direction of travel F, the chassis 1 carries a wiper strip 7 made of a foamed rubber profile by means of a holder 6. The ends of the wiper strip 7 are angled slightly forward so that the collected water does not flow off to the side when wiping.
  • the handle 4 lies in a plane A perpendicular to the direction of travel F, the distance a from the wiper strip 7 is substantially smaller than the distance b of the support and guide element 5 from the wiper strip 7.
  • the distance b should be at least twice as large as the distance a. Because of the telescopability, the distance a could even be 0 or the wiper strip 7 would be on the right side of the plane A in the drawing. In all cases it is ensured that the distance b is significantly larger than the distance a.
