Definitions

  • the invention relates to an insert for a water tank for washing out and squeezing out raster sponges, with two plates provided with openings in a washing zone and in a squeezing zone in a horizontal position at different heights.
  • the use of the insert part is also within the scope of the invention.
  • So-called grid sponges are used to smooth and wash fresh joints on wall and floor coverings. Since dirt particles and joint residues get stuck in the grid sponge, it has to be washed out frequently and the water then pressed out of the sponge. For this purpose, it is known to pivot the grid sponge a few times in a container filled with water and then to squeeze the water out of the sponge in that the grid sponge is guided over two rollers arranged on the water container using a certain contact pressure.
  • This conventional procedure for washing out and pressing out raster sponges has two major disadvantages. By simply swiveling the grid sponge in the water, only a small part of the dirt particles and joint residues absorbed by the sponge are washed out. When the water is subsequently pressed out using the rollers, the dirt particles are worked even further into the sponge. In addition, squeezing the water out of the rollers quickly damages the sponge so that it has to be replaced prematurely.
  • US-A-2671239 discloses an insert for a container for washing and squeezing out brushes.
  • the container is divided into two, with perforated parts in each container Plates are arranged in a horizontal position at different heights, forming a washing zone and a squeezing zone.
  • the inventor has set himself the task of providing a device for washing out and squeezing out raster sponges, which enables the efficient removal of dirt and joint residues from the sponge and at the same time allows the water to be squeezed out gently from the cleaned sponge.
  • an insert part for a water container leads, in which the washing zone is formed by a first metal frame with a grating which is interchangeably inserted therein and the squeezing zone is formed by a second metal frame with a grating which is interchangeably inserted therein.
  • the insert In use, the insert is placed in a water container and the water container is filled with water in such a way that the grating in the area of the washing zone comes to lie just below the water line.
  • the required cleaning and gentle pressing is achieved by pressing the grid sponge in stages against the grating in the washing zone and then in the squeezing zone.
  • the gratings or the metal frames are preferably in a horizontal distance from each other and rigidly connected to each other via connecting webs.
  • the first metal frame expediently has a first pair of feet and the second metal frame has a second pair of feet.
  • the height of the grating or the second metal frame in the squeeze-out zone corresponds approximately to twice the height of the grating or the first metal frame in the washing zone.
  • Plastic is particularly suitable as the material for the gratings.
  • Metal frames, connecting bars and pairs of feet are preferably made of steel, welded together and then galvanized.
  • a washing device 10 for washing out and pressing out a grid sponge 40 used for smoothing and washing fresh joints on wall and floor coverings has a water basin 12 and an insert part 14 which is free-standing in it.
  • the insert part 14 consists of a rectangular first metal frame 16 horizontally arranged in a washing zone A at a height a and a rectangular second metal frame 18 horizontally arranged in a pressing zone B at a height b.
  • the height b of the second metal frame 18 corresponds approximately to that double height a of the first metal frame 16.
  • the two metal frames 16, 18 are rigidly connected to one another via lateral connecting webs 24 and are at a horizontal distance d from one another.
  • the Height a and b results from the corresponding arrangement of a first pair of feet 20 on the first metal frame 16 and a second pair of feet 22 on the second metal frame 18.
  • the pairs of feet 20, 22 are provided with rubber feet 34 which, in the position of use of the insert 14 on the bottom 13 of the Water pool 12 lie on.
  • Each of the metal frames 16, 18 is provided with a circumferential support strip 32 and thus forms a holder for a grating 26 which is interchangeably inserted in the metal frame.
  • This grating 26 is formed from longitudinal webs 28 and transverse webs 30, so that a square lattice pattern results in plan view .
  • the thickness c of the grating 26 corresponds approximately to the vertical dimension of the metal frame 16, 18, so that when the grating 26 is inserted, its upper surface is approximately flush with the upper edge of the metal frame 16, 18.
  • the metal frames 16, 18, the pairs of feet 20, 22 and the connecting webs 24 are made of steel, welded to one another and the welded construction is then galvanized.
  • the exchangeable grating 26 is made of plastic and can be fixed to the metal frame 16, 18, for example by means of plastic clips, if necessary.
  • the water basin 12 is filled with water W up to a height h, so that the water line 1 comes to lie just above the upper edge of the first metal frame 16, ie the height h of the water line 1 just exceeds the height a of the first metal frame 16, for example about 0.1 (ba).
  • the so-called raster sponge 40 which is usually glued to a grid sponge board 36 with an integrated handle 38, is pressed a few times in the washing zone A against the grating 26 in the first metal frame 16, as a result of which Screen sponge 40 fixed dirt particles are removed and the screen sponge 40 is subjected to a wet cleaning.
  • the raster sponge 40 After the raster sponge 40 has been washed out, it is pressed in the squeezing zone B against the grating 26 of the second metal frame 18, as a result of which the predominant part of the water contained in the raster sponge 40 is expelled.
  • the raster sponge 40 cleaned in this way is ready for the renewed washing of a freshly grooved floor or wall covering.
