Abstract

A tread plate (5) is positioned under the handle (4) of the brush, flush with the dustpan surface (2), and end of tread plate facing away from dustpan has at least one protrusion in form of rubber plug on its underside. The dustpan's surface has opening (13) for holder (14) on the handle (11). The holder is formed by a cavity (7) open on one side, and the wall (8) of the cavity facing away from the dustpan surface slopes upwards and rearwards.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Kehrschaufel gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a dustpan according to the preamble of claim 1.

Bei den üblichen Kehrschaufeln muß sich die Benutzerin bei jedem Kehrvorgang bücken, um mit einer Hand die Kehrschaufel zu halten und mit der anderen Hand mit einem Handbesen den Kehricht in die Schaufel zu kehren. Dies ist mühsam und insbesondere für ältere Personen sehr anstrengend.With the usual dustpan, the user has to do every sweep stoop to hold the dustpan with one hand and with the other hand to sweep the garbage into the shovel with a hand broom. This is tedious and very tiring especially for the elderly.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Kehrschaufel zu schaffen, mit welcher der Kehrvorgang wesentlich erleichtert wird.The object of the invention is to provide a dustpan with which the Sweeping is made much easier.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß unterhalb des Griffes eine Trittplatte vorgesehen ist.This object is achieved in that below the handle a step plate is provided.

Die erfindungsgemäße Kehrschaufel wird durch Tritt auf die Trittplatte an Ort und Stelle gehalten und braucht nun nicht bei jedem Kehrvorgang in gebückter Haltung mit der Hand gehalten zu werden, Die Benutzerin kann nun in aufrechter Stellung mit einem Stielbesen den Kehricht in die Schaufel kehren.The dustpan according to the invention is in place by stepping on the step plate and Held in place and does not need to bend over with every sweep Posture to be held by hand, the user can now stand upright Use a broom to sweep the garbage into the shovel.

Die Trittplatte fluchtet normalerweise mit dem Schaufelblatt. Um insbesondere beim Kehren von unebenen Böden, beispielsweise Fliesenböden, sicherzustellen, daß die Kehrlippe des Schaufelblattes auf dem Boden aufliegt, ist es zweckmäßig, an dem vom Schaufelblatt abgewandten Ende der Trittplatte auf deren Unterseite mindestens einen Vorsprung vorzusehen, so daß die Kehrschaufel einerseits mit der Kehrlippe und andererseits mit diesem Vorsprung auf dem Fußboden aufliegt. Dieser Vorsprung kann gegebenenfalls von Gummistopfen bzw. einer Gummileiste gebildet werden, der ein Wegrutschen der Kehrschaufel bei einem glatten Boden wirksam verhindert. The tread plate is usually aligned with the airfoil. To in particular when sweeping uneven floors, for example tiled floors, that the sweeping lip of the airfoil lies on the ground, it is useful at the end of the tread plate facing away from the airfoil on its Provide the bottom at least one projection, so that the dustpan on the one hand with the dust lip and on the other hand with this projection on the The floor rests. This protrusion can, if necessary, of rubber plugs or a rubber strip are formed, the slipping of the dustpan effectively prevented on a smooth floor.

Zum Aufbewahren der Kehrschaufel kann die Trittplatte mit einer Öffnung zur Aufnahme einer am Besenstiel anbringbaren Halterung versehen sein. Diese Halterung kann beispielsweise an einem Clip angebracht sein, der auf den Besenstiel aufgeclipst wird.To store the dustpan, the step plate can be opened with an opening Be provided with a mount that can be attached to the broomstick. This Bracket can for example be attached to a clip that on the Broomstick is clipped on.

Zur Erhöhung der Stabilität kann die Trittplatte mit dem Griff zu einem Bügel verbunden sein.To increase stability, the step plate can be turned into a bracket with the handle be connected.

Bei einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführung ist der Griff mit einer Halterung für einen Stielbesen versehen. Dadurch kann die Kehrschaufel mit dem Stielbesen von Ort zu Ort bewegt und auch ausgeleert werden, ohne daß sich die Benutzerin bücken muß. Diese Halterung kann von einer einseitig offenen Aussparung gebildet sein, in die der Hals des Besenkörpers eingeführt werden kann. Die rückwärtige, vom Schaufelblatt abgewandte Wand der Aussparung kann schräg nach oben und hinten verlaufen, damit der Besenstiel in eine Schräglage kommt, die für die Führung der Kehrschaufel vorteilhaft ist. In dieser Wand kann eine Nut vorgesehen sein, in die ein Fortsatz an der Unterseite des Halses des Besenkörpers eingreifen kann. Dadurch wird der Stielbesen in der Aussparung gegen unbeab-sichtigtes Drehen fixiert.In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the handle has a holder for provide a broomstick. This allows the dustpan with the broom moved from place to place and also emptied without the user have to bend down. This bracket can have a recess open on one side be formed, into which the neck of the broom body can be inserted. The rear wall of the recess facing away from the airfoil can be inclined run upwards and backwards so that the broomstick comes into an inclined position, which is advantageous for guiding the dustpan. There can be a groove in this wall be provided in which an extension on the underside of the neck of the Broom body can intervene. This will place the broom in the recess fixed against unintentional turning.

Die Kehrschaufel 1 weist ein Schaufelblatt 2 mit einer Kehrlippe 3, einem Griff 4 und unterhalb des Griffes eine Trittplatte 5, die mit dem Schaufelblatt 2 fluchtet und mit dem Griff zu einem Bügel verbunden ist, auf. An dem vom Schaufelblatt 2 abgewandten Ende ist die Trittplatte 5 auf der Unterseite mit zwei Vorsprüngen 6 versehen, mit denen sichergestellt ist, daß die Kehrlippe 3 bei Belastung der Trittplatte 5 mit einem Fuß auf dem Fußboden aufliegt.The dustpan 1 has an airfoil 2 with a dust lip 3, a handle 4 and below the handle a tread plate 5, which is aligned with the airfoil 2 and connected to the handle to form a bracket. On the blade 2 End facing away from the tread plate 5 on the underside with two projections 6 provided with which it is ensured that the lip 3 when loaded Footplate 5 rests with one foot on the floor.

Der Kehricht kann nun mit einem Stielbesen auf das Schaufelblatt 2 gekehrt werden, ohne daß sich die Benutzerin bücken muß. Zur weiteren Erleichterung des Kehrvorganges ist an der Kehrschaufel eine Halterung für den Stielbesen vorgesehen, so daß die Benutzerin die Kehrschaufel 1 mit dem Stielbesen von Ort zu Ort bewegen und auch ausleeren kann. Diese Halterung wird im Ausführungsbeispiel von einer einseitig offenen Aussparung 7 im Griff 4 gebildet, in die der Besenkörper 9 mit seinem Hals 10, wie in Fig. 5 gezeigt, eingeführt werden kann. Die rückwärtige Wand 8 der Aussparung 7 verläuft schräg nach hinten und oben, so daß der Besenstiel 11 (Fig. 5) schräg nach hinten zeigt, wodurch die Handhabung erleichtert wird. Um ein Drehen des in die Aussparung 7 eingeführten Besens zu verhindern, ist in der rückwärtigen Wand eine Nut 12 vorgesehen, in die ein nicht gezeigter Fortsatz auf der Unterseite des Besenhalses 10 eingreift.The garbage can now be swept onto the blade 2 with a broomstick without the user having to bend down. For further relief the sweeping process is a holder for the broom on the dustpan provided so that the user the dustpan 1 with the broom by Can move from place to place and also empty it. This bracket is in the embodiment formed by a recess 7 open on one side in the handle 4, in which the broom body 9 with its neck 10, as shown in Fig. 5, introduced can be. The rear wall 8 of the recess 7 runs obliquely behind and above, so that the broomstick 11 (FIG. 5) points obliquely to the rear, which makes handling easier. To turn the into the recess 7 to prevent inserted broom is a groove 12 in the rear wall provided, in which a not shown extension on the underside of the broom neck 10 engages.

Zur Aufbewahrung der Kehrschaufel bei Nichtgebrauch ist in der Trittplatte 5 eine Öffnung 13 vorgesehen, mit der die Kehrschaufel auf eine knopfartige Halterung 14 aufgehängt werden kann, die an einem Clip 15 angebracht ist, der auf den Besenstiel 11 aufgeclipst werden kann. Der Clip 15 ist in Fig. 4 dargestellt und seine Anbringung am Besenstiel 11 ist aus Fig. 5 ersichtlich.To store the dustpan when not in use is in the step plate 5 Opening 13 provided with which the dustpan on a button-like holder 14 can be hung, which is attached to a clip 15 which on the Broomstick 11 can be clipped on. The clip 15 is shown in FIG. 4 and its attachment to the broomstick 11 can be seen in FIG. 5.
