Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hard surface cleaning device, especially window wipers with a suction head which has a flexible wiper lip next to it with at least one suction opening with an arranged on the suction head outlet for a Cleaning liquid with a supply for the cleaning liquid and with an actuator for Dispensing of the cleaning liquid through the outlet opening, with a storage container on the suction head for receiving a supply of cleaning liquid is.
  • Such a hard surface cleaning device is for example known from DE-A-41 25 866.
  • This known hard surface cleaning device can cleaning liquid through the outlet opening towards sprayed cleaning surface, then with a Wiping pad held on the suction head on the surface rubbed and finally with the wiper lip again be stripped, the stripped liquid immediately about the slit-shaped in this case Suction opening is suctioned.
  • the suction head is with a Suction line connected, and via this suction line and a separate line held on it becomes the Cleaning liquid for the outlet opening on the Suction head brought up. This is under pressure so that by opening a valve that is under pressure Cleaning liquid dispensed through the outlet opening can be.
  • a further development of such a hard surface cleaning device is for example from US-A-3,332,101 known.
  • This well-known hard surface cleaning device can cleaning liquid through an outlet sprayed onto the surface to be cleaned and then be wiped off with the wiper lip, taking off the stripped liquid immediately suctioned off the slit-shaped suction opening in this case becomes.
  • There is an actuator on the suction head Dispensing of the cleaning liquid provided and a Storage container for holding a supply of cleaning fluid arranged.
  • the reservoir is in this embodiment firmly connected to the suction head.
  • This task is done with a hard surface cleaning device of the type described in the introduction solved that the reservoir as a separate Component is formed and detachable with the suction head connected is.
  • connection between Storage container and suction head around a locking or Act snap connection For example, the connection between Storage container and suction head around a locking or Act snap connection.
  • the reservoir is on the side of the suction head is arranged on which a suction connection from this exit.
  • the suction head is one Wiper be T-shaped with a extending over the entire length of the wiper lip Suction chamber with a suction connection in the middle exit. If a storage container is attached to this side there is a favorable weight distribution for the suction head, so that if necessary the liquid in the reservoir still the pressure forces be enlarged when cleaning the surface.
  • the storage container can be the suction connection at least partially surrounded.
  • the storage container at least consists partly of transparent material, so that the user the fill level of the storage container at all times can recognize.
  • the storage container can have a filling opening, through which it can be filled in a simple manner is, for example, by setting up a special Cleaning liquid container, one at the filling opening has adapted connection. Thereby a leak-free filling is possible.
  • connection of the handle part to the suction port of the suction head the reservoir and to the outlet opening as Plug connections are formed when plugging together of suction head and handle part connected at the same time become.
  • assembling is therefore not a special one Care is taken to connect these flow connections to lay but these connections will be produced automatically when the two parts are put together.
  • actuating element actuates a pump in the handle part.
  • This can be, for example electric pump act, the actuator would then designed as a switch.
  • the suction head shown in Figure 1 comprises a flat, elongated suction chamber 1, one on the front gap-shaped suction opening 2 is arranged, which extends over the entire length of the suction chamber 1. Out this suction opening 2 projects inside the suction chamber 1 stored flexible wiper lip 3 out can be applied to a surface to be cleaned, so that thereby stripping liquid from this surface and is sucked through the suction opening 2.
  • the suction chamber 1 is with a central pipe socket 4 connected to a piece of pipe 5 of a handle part 6 can be plugged on.
  • This Pipe section 5 is connected to a suction line 7 which about a flexible not shown in the drawing Hose connected to a suction unit stands. This allows air and liquid from the Suction chamber 1 are suctioned off through the suction opening 2 are sucked in.
  • the suction chamber 1 On the side opposite the wiper lip 3 the suction chamber 1 is on the outside arranged across the entire width of the wiping pad 8, that can be used to keep liquid on distribute the surface to be cleaned under pressure and thus cleaning the surface.
  • a nipple 11 with the handle part 6 is connected in one piece and the line piece 9 connects to a chamber 12 in the handle part 6, in the a piston pump 13 is arranged.
  • FIG. 1 This is shown only schematically in FIG. 1 can be pivotally mounted on the chamber 12 Bellows 14 are actuated, on which one the outside of the handle part 6 pivotally mounted Push button 15 is present.
  • Push button 15 By pressing the Push button 15, the bell crank 14 is pivoted, and this in turn pushes the piston of the piston pump 13 one, which is then pushed out again by spring force becomes.
  • the line piece 9 and the nipple that can be inserted into it 11, the connecting sleeve 16 and the insertable into it Nipple 17 and the pipe socket 4 and the pipe section 5 of the handle part 6 are arranged parallel to one another, so that three connectors in this way arise when the handle part is put together and the pipe socket 4 of the suction chamber 1 at the same time form a tight flow connection.
  • a reservoir 18 for cleaning liquid surrounds the pipe socket 4 in the shown in Figure 1 Embodiment annular and extends parallel to the suction chamber 1 over most of their width.
  • the storage container is preferably present made of a transparent plastic material, so that the level is visible from the outside.
  • On the side the storage container 18 has a filling opening 19 to which, for example, a storage bottle with a Cleaning liquid can be applied tightly, through which a filling then takes place.
  • the reservoir 18 is detachable with the suction chamber 1 connected, for example by an elastic catch connection or a snap connection that on are familiar to the expert. This is in Figure 2 shown.
  • the reservoir 18 is as a separate one Component formed, in particular for filling of the reservoir 18 with the cleaning liquid be removed or by another Storage container can be replaced.
