  • the magazine for the disposable sweepers for This toilet brush is characterized by the fact that it consists of an open, there is a tubular container with a weighting foot, and that in this Containers that are disposable sweepers are stacked, the inside dimensions of the tubular container is slightly smaller than the outer dimension of the Container stackable disposable sweepers, so that every single stacked disposable sweeper is slightly jammed in the container, and a single-use sweep from above can be gripped and pulled out of the magazine.
  • this toilet brush is a replacement for conventional toilet brushes thought and in contrast to a toilet brush, which is a one-piece Commodity forms, formed as a two-part commodity, the actual sweeping part, which in itself replaces the broom part, as Disposable consumables are running.
  • the handle of the lavatory sweep points thereby means for releasably holding the sweeping part, which are still in detail to be discribed.
  • Such a lavatory sweeper is shown in an overall view in FIG.
  • Man sees the stem 1 with a plunger 14 protruding at the rear end, which belongs to the means for releasably holding the sweeping part, as well as below actual sweeper 3.
  • the disposable sweeper 3 is detachable on the handle 1 is held, the holding force must be sufficient so that without risk of involuntary falling of the sweeper 3 can be swept with the device. Further the disposable sweep 3 must also be easily pushed off.
  • the toilet brush consists of a handle 1 with a Longitudinal bore in which a plunger 14 is guided to be longitudinally displaceable. At the An attachment 13 is firmly connected to the handle 1 at the front end of the handle 1.
  • the Attachment 13 forms a hollow cone and is for receiving a disposable sweep 3, as shown in Figure 2.
  • a compression spring Inside the stem 1 is a compression spring inserted, which always pushes the plunger 14 in the handle 1 against the rear handle end. So that the plunger 14 does not fall out of the stem, it has at the lower end a thread in which a plate-shaped bolt is screwed, the Plate is larger than the hole in handle 1.
  • the upper, conical end 12 of the disposable sweep 3 At the front in the hollow cone of the attachment 13 is the upper, conical end 12 of the disposable sweep 3.
  • the conical End of the disposable sweep 3 and the hollow cone on the top 13 have such a low taper that the cone of the disposable sweeper 3 is jammed in the hollow cone is held on the handle attachment 13 and thus on the handle 1.
  • the Toilet brush can be used like a conventional toilet brush.
  • To but use is pressed with one hand on the plunger 14 and moves it downwards relative to the handle 1.
  • the plunger 14 thereby presses with its plate-shaped bolt screwed onto the lower end Disposable sweeper 3, and this is thereby from the attachment 13 of the handle 1st ejected and falls into the toilet.
  • the dirty brush 3 With a rinse, the dirty brush 3 now flushed into the sewage system, just like toilet paper.
  • the stalk 1 if he not being immersed in the water remains clean. When he's in the water was immersed, he can something in the purging while sweeping 3 Stream of clean rinse water are kept and thus cleaned.
  • After using the toilet brush only its handle becomes 1 provided. Either hang it next to the toilet or put it in one provided container.
  • a single disposable sweeper 3 is shown in FIG. It consists of one Paper body, a spacer 2 stacked at the top for spacing Disposable sweeper 3 forms.
  • the disposable sweeper 3 consists exclusively of cleaned, pressed waste paper without binder. This has the advantage that the Disposable sweeper 3 disintegrates into the smallest paper fibers as soon as it has been in the water for some time lies. However, because the disposable sweeper 3 is pressed, the water penetrates into the paper slowly enough so that the disposable sweeper 3 is long enough remains stable so that the toilet bowl can be cleaned with it. Once the disposable sweeper 3 has absorbed some water, it slowly becomes soft and behaves when cleaning like a rag.
  • the disposable sweeper 3 has a closed and top Opened, truncated cone-like, pressed paper body.
  • the upper end face of the disposable sweep 3 is indented conically.
  • the Spacer 2 is designed in this embodiment as a type of web, which the conical indentation 4 divided into two halves.
  • Figure 2a shows one vertical cut through the disposable sweeper.
  • Figure 2b is the disposable sweep 3 shown from above and in FIG.
  • the Spacer 2 is used in this version to space the stacking nested disposable sweeper 3. Furthermore, the web 2 gives the disposable sweeper 3 additional strength in the upper, conical area 12 of Paper body, which when you put the disposable sweep 3 on the handle 1 in the Hollow cone of the stem attachment 13 comes to rest.
