Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dishwashing brush with a handle and a brush head attached to one end of the handle.
  • the object of the present invention is to improve a washing-up brush of the generic type in such a way that its possible uses are expanded and simplified.
  • the handle is provided with at least one hinge area and is adjustable in this hinge area for different applications.
  • the at least easily adjustable handle creates the possibility of optimally using the dishwashing brush in accordance with the respective area of application.
  • An adjustable handle is particularly advantageous when cleaning hard-to-reach areas and allows the handle to be moved into an easy-to-use position and the brush head into a convenient position for optimal cleaning of the surfaces to be cleaned.
  • a washing brush 1 is shown in a somewhat simplified form, which essentially has a handle 2 and a brush head 3 fixed at one end of this handle 2.
  • the brush head 3 is advantageously detachably connected to the handle 2, so that, for example, after the brush head 3 wears, it can be easily replaced by a new brush head.
  • the handle 2 is equipped with two joint areas 4, these joint areas making it possible to adjust the handle 2 for different applications. Possible adjustment positions are indicated in FIG. 1 by means of dash-dotted lines.
  • a joint area 4 is shown in FIGS. 3 and 4.
  • the two mutually adjustable sections 2a and 2b of the handle 2 are advantageously made of plastic and the section designated by the reference numeral 2a is equipped with a journal 5 which is overlapped by a corresponding bearing bush 6 of the other section 2b.
  • the pivot pin 5 and the bearing bush 6 enable the two sections 2a and 2b to be pivoted about a pivot axis 7. In the direction of this pivot axis 7, the two sections 2a and 2b are practically firmly connected to one another, so that the two sections 2a and 2b cannot be separated from one another.
  • a locking toothing 8 is provided in the transition area between the two sections 2a and 2b, which in the exemplary embodiment shown on the end faces of the bearing bush 6 and the correspondingly opposite bearing surface 9 of the section provided with the bearing pin 5 2a is arranged.
  • a locking toothing can of course also be provided in the peripheral region of the bearing pin 5 on the one hand and the bearing bush 6 on the other hand.
  • the entire joint area 4 is encased in a casing 10 made of a thermoplastic material, so that the joint area 4 does not get dirty on the one hand and cannot cause any risk of injury on the other hand.
  • the joint area 4 of the handle 2 in the transition area to the brush head 3 is designed accordingly.
  • the free end of the handle 2 is provided with a recess 11, as shown in FIG. 2, so that the entire washing-up brush can be hung on a corresponding holder when not in use.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 show a further possibility for the design of an articulated area between two sections 2a and 2b of a handle for a washing-up brush according to the invention.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 show that the section 2a is provided with an opening 12 with a star-shaped cross section.
  • the section 2b is equipped with a square pin 13, the diagonal of this pin 13 corresponds to the corner dimension of the star-shaped opening 12.
  • the two sections 2a and 2b are held together by a connecting bolt 14 shown in FIG. 6, which may have a rivet shape.
  • these two sections 2a and 2b can in turn be adjusted relative to one another about an articulated axis 7 and locked against one another in various pivot positions in accordance with the number of the star-shaped shape of the opening 12.
  • the handle 2 or its subsections 2a and 2b and the head region 15 shown in FIG. 3, to which the brush head 3 can be fastened, are advantageously made from relatively strong plastics, for example from polyoxymethylene or from polyamide.
  • the parts can also consist of metal and overmolded with appropriate plastics.
  • the sheaths 10 in the joint areas 4 advantageously consist of thermoplastic elastomers.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 show a further possibility for the design of a joint area for the handle of a washing-up brush according to the invention.
  • the section 2a of the handle shown in FIG. 7 only with its hinge area is externally toothed with an axially divided into several segments 5a Bearing pin 5 equipped, which is assigned a corresponding internally toothed bearing bush 6 of the section 2b (see Figure 8).
  • the axial division of the bearing pin 5 into individual segments 5a gives this bearing pin 5 a certain elasticity, so that in addition to the elastic properties of the material used, a structural component makes it easier to skip the teeth.
  • the section 2a is equipped with a semicircular segment 16 which runs concentrically to the bearing journal 5 and which is likewise provided with teeth on the outside.
  • This semicircular segment 16 engages in the assembled state of the two sections 2a and 2b in a correspondingly designed, also segment-shaped recess 17 of the assigned section 2b.
  • the central angle of the segment-like and externally toothed recess 17 is larger than the central angle of the raised segment 16 of the section 2a, so that the actually given adjustment or pivoting possibility of the two sections 2a and 2b to one another is limited in accordance with this enlarged central angle.
  • the conditions are chosen such that there is an adjustment possibility of approximately 30 degrees.
  • the central angle of the segment 16 and the corresponding recess 17 can also be selected so that larger adjustment ranges result, if this is desirable.
