Abstract

Die Erfindung stellt ein Reinigungssystem bereit, mit dem insbesondere unter Verwendung handelsüblicher Putzeimer eine einfache und effektive Reinigung, insbesondere von Bodenbereichen ermöglicht wird, wobei ein einfaches und sicheres Auspressen eines an einem Reinigungsgerät angeordneten Reinigungselementes (2) gewährleistet ist und insbesondere ein Kontakt des Benutzer mit dem Schmutzwasser vermieden wird. Das Reinigungsgerät ist dabei mit einem Reinigungselement ausgestattet, das an einer Wischplatte (12) des Reinigungsgerätes von dieser teilweise wegschwenkbar befestigt ist. Die Wischplatte weist in wenigstens einem Verbindungsbereich mit dem Reinigungselement eine Anpreßfläche (23) auf, die derart ausgebildet ist, daß das Reinigungselement in von der Wischplatte weggeschwenktem Zustand zwischen der Anpreßfläche und wenigstens einer Gegenfläche komprimierbar ist.

Figure 00000001
The invention provides a cleaning system which enables simple and effective cleaning, in particular of floor areas, in particular using commercially available cleaning buckets, which ensures simple and safe pressing out of a cleaning element (2) arranged on a cleaning device and in particular contact of the user with the dirty water is avoided. The cleaning device is equipped with a cleaning element which is attached to a wiping plate (12) of the cleaning device so that it can be partially pivoted away from it. In at least one connection area with the cleaning element, the wiper plate has a contact surface (23) which is designed in such a way that the cleaning element can be compressed between the contact surface and at least one counter surface when pivoted away from the contact plate.
