Aus der DE-C-195 10 824 ist ein Flachwischbezug für Fußbodenreinigung bekannt, der sich sowohl für trockene als auch für nasse bzw. feuchte Reinigungsaufgaben eignet. Dieser Wischbezug kann an einem Halter befestigt werden und weist im mittleren Bereich der unteren Fläche ein hochsaugfähiges, zumindest teilweise aus Baumwolle und/oder Viskose bestehendes Material auf. Zumindest die Längsseiten eines Deckblatts sind von einem Einfaßband gesäumt und am Rand des Bezuges ist ein zumindest teilweise umlaufender Textilkranz angebracht. Dieser Textilkranz wird von einem Einfaßband gebildet, das sich auf der Unterseite des Deckblatts mindestens um 1/6 der Breite des Deckblatts zur Mitte hin erstreckt und zumindest teilweise, insbesondere vollständig aus Mischgarnen, aus Kunst- oder Naturfasern besteht. Dieses Einfaßband dient zur Aufnahme des am Fußboden anhaftenden Schmutzes.From DE-C-195 10 824 is a flat mop cover for floor cleaning known for dry as well as wet or damp Cleaning tasks. This mop cover can be attached to a holder be attached and points in the central area of the lower surface highly absorbent, at least partially made of cotton and / or viscose existing material. At least the long sides of a cover sheet are lined with a binding tape and at the edge of the cover is a attached at least partially circumferential textile wreath. This Textile wreath is formed by a binding tape, which is on the Underside of the cover sheet at least 1/6 of the width of the cover sheet extends towards the center and at least partially, in particular completely consists of mixed yarns, synthetic or natural fibers. This Binding tape is used to hold the adhesive on the floor Dirt.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, einen Wischbezug zu schaffen, der bei einem geringen Materialeinsatz der Wischstoffschicht das Wasserspeichervermögen verbessert, um so bei erhöhtem Einsatz von Wasser trotzdem ein Nachwischen zu vermeiden.The object of the invention is to provide a mop cover that with a low material use of the wipe layer Water storage capacity improved, so with increased use of Water to avoid wiping.

Dabei soll der Wischbezug in der Lage sein, eine hohe Kraftübertragung dauerhaft zu gewährleisten, um eine hohe Reinigungsleistung zu erzielen.The mop cover should be capable of high power transmission permanently to ensure a high cleaning performance.

Darstellung der ErfindungPresentation of the invention

Erfindungsgemäß sind dazu mindestens zwei Lagen aus Vliesstoff unter Bildung eines über die Wischstoffschicht hinausragenden Randes vorgesehen, wobei die Wischstoffschicht im wesentlichen die Größe der vom Halter abgedeckten Fläche aufweist und unter dem Halter zu liegen kommt, wobei die der zu reinigenden Fläche zugewandte erste Lage ans Vliesstoff eine Aussparung aufweist, in welche die Wischstoffschicht eingelassen ist,und wobei die Verbindung der Wischstoffschicht mit der ersten Lage zwischen der ersten Lage und der zweiten Lage aus Vliesstoff verdeckt angeordnet ist.According to the invention, there are at least two layers of nonwoven under Formation of an edge protruding beyond the wipe layer provided, the wipe layer essentially the size of the has area covered by the holder and to lie under the holder comes, the first layer facing the surface to be cleaned on the nonwoven fabric Has recess in which the wipe layer is embedded, and the connection of the wipe layer with the first layer hidden between the first layer and the second layer of nonwoven is arranged.

Dieser Vliesstoff hat ein erhöhtes Wasserspeichervermögen gegenüber den mindestens zum Teil aus Kunstfasern bestehenden Florfäden, zwischen welchen sich nur wenig Wasser halten kann. Der über die Wischstoffschicht hinausragende Rand aus eben diesem Vliesstoff gibt zunächst das Wasser an die zu reinigende Fläche und löst den Schmutz vor. Die Florfäden der in Reinigungsrichtung darauffolgende Wischstoffschicht heben den Schmutz von der zu reinigenden Fläche ab und der wiederum folgende Rand aus Vliesstoff saugt das nun schmutzbeladene Wasser wieder auf. Damit ist in einem Arbeitsgang ein erhöhter Wassereinsatz ermöglicht. Zusätzlich wirkt der Rand als Puffer, da er aufgrund der relativ geringen Steifigkeit des Vliesstoffes beim Anfahren an ein Möbelstück oder an eine Fußleiste gestaucht wird und sich somit zwischen den Halter und das Möbelstück legt.This nonwoven fabric has an increased water storage capacity the pile threads consisting at least partly of synthetic fibers, between which little water can stay. The one about the The edge of the wiping layer protruding from this non-woven fabric first the water to the surface to be cleaned and loosens the dirt in front. The pile threads of the next one in the cleaning direction Wipe layer remove dirt from the surface to be cleaned and the following nonwoven edge now sucks it dirty water again. So that is in one operation allows increased use of water. In addition, the border acts as a buffer, because it is due to the relatively low stiffness of the nonwoven Approaching a piece of furniture or a baseboard is compressed and thus lies between the holder and the piece of furniture.

Ein besonders sparsamer Materialeinsatz des Materials der Wischstoffschicht ist dadurch möglich, daß die Wischstoffschicht im wesentlichen die Größe der vom Halter abgedeckten Fläche aufweist und direkt unter dem Halter zu liegen kommt. In diesem Fall ragt nur die Lage aus Vliesstoff über den Halter hinaus. Da die Kraftübertragung vom Halter auf den Wischbezug aber in entscheidender Weise in dem Bereich des Halters selbst stattfindet und die Reinigungsleistung der unbelasteten Ränder gegenüber der Fläche unter dem Halter als sehr gering zu veranschlagen ist, ist die Reinigungsleistung insgesamt nicht wesentlich geringer.A particularly economical use of the material of the Wipe layer is possible in that the wipe layer in essentially has the size of the area covered by the holder and comes to rest directly under the holder. In this case, the only thing that matters is the location made of non-woven fabric beyond the holder. Because the power transmission from the holder on the mop cover but in a decisive way in the area of Holder itself takes place and the cleaning performance of the unloaded Margins compared to the area under the holder as very small overall, the cleaning performance is not essential less.

Um die Wirkungsweise des Wischbezugs weiter zu verbessern, sind mindestens zwei Lagen aus Vliesstoff vorgesehen, wodurch zudem eine Doppellagigkeit des Randes erreicht wird. Aufgrund der zusätzlichen Lage aus Vliesstoff ist eine weiter erhöhte Speicherung von Wasser in dem Inneren des Wischbezugs möglich. Dieser Wasservorrat wird durch Ausüben von Druck über den Halter abgegeben und kann bei nachlassendem Druck wieder aufgenommen werden.To further improve the effectiveness of the mop cover At least two layers of nonwoven are provided, which also makes one Double layer of the edge is achieved. Because of the additional location from nonwoven is a further increased storage of water in the Possible inside the mop cover. This water supply is through Apply pressure exerted through the holder and can at decreasing pressure to be resumed.

Dabei weist die der zu reinigenden Fläche zugewandte Lage eine Aussparung auf, in welche die Wischstoffschicht eingelassen ist. Hierdurch ist es möglich, die Auflage des Randes auf der zu reinigenden Fläche zu verbessern, da die ausgeschnittene Lage aus Vliesstoff näher zu der zu reinigenden Fläche gerückt wird.The layer facing the surface to be cleaned has a Recess in which the wipe layer is embedded. Hereby it is possible to place the edge on the surface to be cleaned improve because the cut out layer of nonwoven is closer to that too cleaning surface is moved.

Zur Erhöhung der Lebensdauer ist die Verbindung der Wischstoffschicht mit der ersten Lage zwischen dieser und der zweiten Lage aus Vliesstoff verdeckt angeordnet. Dadurch wird die Verbindungsstelle nicht den mechanischen Beanspruchungen durch den Reinigungsvorgang selbst ausgesetzt. So kann im Falle einer Naht auf einen verschleißfesten Faden verzichtet werden.To increase the service life is the connection of the wipe layer with the first layer between this and the second layer of nonwoven arranged hidden. As a result, the connection point is not the mechanical stresses due to the cleaning process itself exposed. So in the case of a seam on a wear-resistant thread to be dispensed with.

Durch die Verbindung der Enden der mindestens zwei Lagen aus Vliesstoff wird die Auflage des Randes auf dem Boden vereinheitlicht und die Verformung des Randes, beispielsweise beim Waschen des Wischbezugs, verringert.By connecting the ends of the at least two layers Non-woven fabric, the support of the edge on the floor is standardized and the deformation of the edge, for example when washing the Mop cover, reduced.

In einer weiteren Ausführungsform kann ein in der Breite progressiv zunehmender Rand vorgesehen werden, wobei die jeweils obere Lage die untere Lage überragt. Damit wird eine Auflage der einzelnen Lagen in verschiedenen Abständen zum Halter bewirkt und die Wasseraufnahme und Wasserabgabe begünstigt.In another embodiment, one can be progressive in width increasing edge are provided, the upper layer each lower layer dominates. This means that a print run of the individual layers in causes different distances to the holder and the water absorption and water release favors.

Durch die Bildung von Fransen mittels Einschnitten in dem über die Wischstoffschicht hinausragenden Rand aus Vliesstoff wird eine Aufnahme von trockenen Staubfäden begünstigt. By forming fringes by means of incisions in the over the The edge made of nonwoven fabric protruding from the wiping layer becomes a Favors uptake of dry stamens.

Um den Verschleiß des Wischbezugs durch das Aufspannen auf den Halter entgegenzuwirken, ist auf der dem Halter zugewandten Seite der Lage aus Vliesstoff eine Tragschicht angeordnet. Die Tragschicht besteht vorteilhaft aus einem Polyestergewebe, dessen Festigkeit zur Formbeständigkeit des Wischbezugs wesentlich beiträgt. Darüber hinaus ist dieses Gewebe verrottungsfrei.To prevent wear on the mop cover by clamping onto the holder to counteract this is on the side of the layer facing the holder Non-woven fabric arranged a base layer. The base layer advantageously consists of a polyester fabric, the strength of the dimensional stability of the Mop cover contributes significantly. In addition, this is fabric rot-free.

Erstreckt sich die Tragschicht über die eine oder mehrere Lagen aus Vliesstoff, so wird eine hohe Formbeständigkeit des Wischbezugs beim Auswringen oder Waschen in der Waschmaschine erreicht, wobei diese Eigenschaft durch ein Vernähen aller Lagen am äußeren Rand begünstigt wird. Zudem ist die vom Aufziehen auf den Halter ausgehende mechanische Beanspruchung von den relativ weichen Lagen aus Vliesstoff ferngehalten.If the base layer extends over one or more layers of nonwoven, so is a high dimensional stability of the mop cover when wringing or Washing in the washing machine achieved this property by one Sewing of all layers on the outer edge is favored. In addition, the Winding up mechanical stress from the holder relatively soft layers of nonwoven fabric kept away.

    Der in Fig. 1 in Draufsicht dargestellte Wischbezug weist eine Tragschicht 1 auf, die auf ihrer Oberseite 2 Taschen 3 zum Befestigen an einem an sich bekannten und daher nicht dargestellten Halter aufweist. Im Randbereich ist die Tragschicht 1 mit einer darunterliegenden, ebenso großen Lage aus Vliesstoff mittels einer Kedernaht oder einer Biese 4 verbunden. Eine gestrichelt dargestellte Naht 5 entspricht in ihrem Verlauf etwa dem Außenumfang des Halters, der zum einen in den Taschen 3 und zum andern mittels einer zusätzlichen Kordel 6 geführt ist.The mop cover shown in plan view in FIG. 1 has a support layer 1 on the top 2 pockets 3 to attach to one in itself known and therefore not shown holder. In the marginal area is the base layer 1 with an underlying, equally large layer Nonwoven connected by means of a welt seam or a piping 4. A Seam 5 shown in dashed lines corresponds approximately to that in its course Outer circumference of the holder, the one in the pockets 3 and the other is guided by an additional cord 6.

    Auf der nicht sichtbaren Unterseite des Wischbezugs ist eine Wischstoffschicht angeordnet, deren Ausdehnung durch die von Hand gezogene Linie 7 dargestellt ist. Dabei ist die Wischstoffschicht im wesentlichen im Bereich der Auflage des Halters unter diesem angeordnet, wodurch eine unmittelbare Kraftübertragung vom Halter auf die Wischstoffschicht möglich ist.There is a layer of wipe on the underside of the mop cover, which is not visible arranged, the extension of which by the hand-drawn line 7 is shown. The wipe layer is essentially in the range of Rest of the holder arranged below this, creating an immediate Power transmission from the holder to the wipe layer is possible.

    In Fig. 2 wird der Aufbau des Wischbezugs weiter verdeutlicht. Ausgehend von der Wischstoffschicht 8 mit gegen die zu reinigende Fläche gerichtete Florfäden 9 weist der Wischbezug einen Rand 10 auf, welcher die Wischstoffschicht 8 allseitig umgibt. Der Rand 10 besteht aus einer ersten Lage 11 aus Vliesstoff, wobei diese erste Lage 11 eine in etwa rechteckige Außenform mit einer in etwa rechteckigen Aussparung in der Größe des Halters in der Mitte aufweist. In diese Aussparung ist die Wischstoffschicht 8 eingelegt, wobei die Wischstoffschicht 8 mittels eines überstehenden Saums 8a auf der der Wischseite abgewandten Seite der Lage 11 mit dieser vernäht ist. Dabei ist der Saum 11a durch Umschlagen der Lage 11 nach innen entstanden. Eine Naht 12 verbindet die Säume 8a, 11a.The structure of the mop cover is further illustrated in FIG. Starting from the wipe layer 8 with directed against the surface to be cleaned Pile threads 9, the mop cover has an edge 10, which the Wiping layer 8 surrounds on all sides. The edge 10 consists of a first Layer 11 made of nonwoven fabric, this first layer 11 being approximately rectangular External shape with an approximately rectangular recess in the size of the Holder in the middle. The wipe layer 8 is in this recess inserted, the wipe layer 8 by means of a protruding hem 8a sewn to the side of the layer 11 facing away from the wiping side is. The hem 11a is by turning the layer 11 inwards emerged. A seam 12 connects the seams 8a, 11a.

    Zur Erhöhung des Wasseraufnahmevermögens ist eine zweite Lage 13 aus Vliesstoff auf der Rückseite der Wischstoffschicht 8 und der ersten Lage 11 angeordnet, wobei die zweite Lage 13 in den Außenabmessungen der ersten Lage 11 entspricht. To increase the water absorption capacity, a second layer 13 is made Nonwoven fabric on the back of the wipe layer 8 and the first layer 11 arranged, the second layer 13 in the outer dimensions of the first Layer 11 corresponds.

    Um den Schutz gegen mechanischen Angriff durch das Einschieben des Halters oder durch Auswringen des Wischbezugs zu verringern ist die Tragschicht 1 als Abdeckung ebenfalls über die gesamte Fläche angeordnet.To protect against mechanical attack by inserting the Holder or by wringing out the mop cover Base layer 1 also arranged as a cover over the entire surface.

    Die Verbindung der ersten Lage 11, der zweiten Lage 13 und der Tragschicht 1 erfolgt entweder durch eine Kedernaht oder eine Biese 4. Diese Kedemaht oder diese Biese 4 weist eine alle Lagen durchdringende Naht 4a auf. Durch den Teil 4b werden die Ränder der Lagen umschlossen und geschützt.The connection of the first layer 11, the second layer 13 and the base layer 1 is carried out either by a welt seam or a piping 4. This welt seam or this piping 4 has a seam 4a which penetrates all layers. By part 4b the edges of the layers are enclosed and protected.

    Die Kordel 6 ist von einem Band 14 umgeben, welches mittels einer Naht 15 mit der Tragschicht 1 vernäht ist.The cord 6 is surrounded by a band 14 which is connected by means of a seam 15 is sewn to the base layer 1.

    In Fig. 3 ist eine Vergrößerung des Bereichs der Befestigung der Wischstoffschicht 8 an der ersten Lage 11 in Vergrößerung dargestellt. Man erkennt deutlich den durch Umschlagen gebildeten Saum 11 a der Vliesstofflage 11 sowie den zwischen der ersten Lage 11 und der zweiten Lage 13 eintauchenden Saum 8a der Wischstoffschicht 8. Die Naht 12 verbindet die Säume 8a, 11a und bleibt von der Wischseite her gesehen verdeckt. Dadurch ist die Naht 12 nicht mechanischen Angriffen der zu reinigenden Flächen ausgesetzt.In Fig. 3 is an enlargement of the area of attachment of the Wipe layer 8 on the first layer 11 shown in an enlarged view. Man clearly recognizes the hem 11 a formed by folding Nonwoven layer 11 and between the first layer 11 and the second layer 13 immersed hem 8a of the wipe layer 8. The seam 12 connects the Hem 8a, 11a and remains hidden from the wiping side. Thereby the seam 12 is not mechanical attacks on the surfaces to be cleaned exposed.

    In Fig. 4 ist der Wischbezug im Längsschnitt im Bereich der Taschen 3 zur Aufnahme des Halters dargestellt. Diese Taschen 3 sind durch Umschlagen der Tragschicht 1 entstanden und mittels der Naht 5 begrenzt. Dadurch ergibt sich im Randbereich 10 eine Doppellagigkeit der Tragschicht 1. 4, the mop cover is in longitudinal section in the region of the pockets 3 Shown of the holder. These pockets 3 are folded over the base layer 1 was created and limited by means of the seam 5. This gives there is a double layer of the base layer 1 in the edge region 10.

    Selbstverständlich ist es auch möglich, die Taschen 3 separat mittels der Naht 5 mit der Tragschicht 1 zu verbinden. Die Taschen sind an ihrem offenen Ende mit einem Band 15 eingefaßt und stehen dort leicht von der Verstärkungsschicht ab, um ein Einschieben des Halters zu erleichtern. Dieses Band 15 kann sich bis zu der Kedernaht bzw. Biese 4 erstrecken und dort gehalten sein, es kann aber auch durch die Naht 5 in Längsrichtung begrenzt sein.Of course, it is also possible to connect the pockets 3 separately to the base layer 1 by means of the seam 5. The pockets are bordered at their open end with a band 15 and protrude slightly from the reinforcement layer there in order to facilitate insertion of the holder. This band 15 can extend up to the welt seam or piping 4 and be held there, but it can also be limited in the longitudinal direction by the seam 5.

    Der Rand 10 kann zur Bildung von Fransen eingeschnitten sein oder aus Lagen 11, 13 unterschiedlicher Randbreite aufgebaut werden, dargestellt in Fig. 5. In letzterem Fall kann eine progressive Auflage der Fransenenden erzielt werden, aber auch der nicht eingeschnittene Rand 10 erfährt durch diesen Aufbau eine verbesserte Auflage.The edge 10 can be cut or made to form fringes Layers 11, 13 of different edge width can be built up, shown in Fig. 5. In the latter case, a progressive edition of the fringe ends can be achieved, but also the not incised edge 10 experiences through this structure an improved edition.

    Die Verbindung der Lagen 11, 13 mit der Wischstoffschicht 8 und der Tragschicht 1 erfolgt über eine einzige Naht 16, die auch die Bildung von Taschen 3 oder den Aufsatz von einer in einem Band eingenähten Kordel zuläßt. Dabei wird die Naht 16 nicht bis zur Unterseite des Wischbezugs durch die Lage 11 durchgestochen es reicht vielmehr aus, die Naht 16 lediglich bis zu dem Saum 11a auszuführen. Erreicht werden kann dies durch ein zeitweiliges Umklappen des Randes 10 der Lage 11 auf die Wischstoffschicht 8. Nach Beendigung des Nähvorgangs wird der Rand 10 der Lage 11 wieder in die dargestellte Position gebracht. Zur Fixierung des Randes 10 der Lage 11 kann außerdem eine weitere Naht 17 in einem Bereich außerhalb der aktiven Reinigungsfläche der Wischstoffschicht 8 ausgeführt werden, welche die Lagen 11 und 13 miteinander verbindet. Dies kann auch durch Verkleben, beispielsweise durch Anschmelzen des Vliesstoffs erfolgen.The connection of the layers 11, 13 with the wipe layer 8 and the Base layer 1 takes place via a single seam 16, which also forms Pockets 3 or the attachment of a cord sewn into a band allows. The seam 16 is not up to Pierced the underside of the mop cover through the layer 11, it is enough rather, the seam 16 only up to the hem 11a to execute. This can be achieved by temporarily folding the Edge 10 of the layer 11 on the wipe layer 8. After completion of the Sewing process, the edge 10 of the layer 11 is again in the position shown brought. To fix the edge 10 of the layer 11 can also further seam 17 in an area outside the active cleaning surface of the Wipe layer 8 are executed, which the layers 11 and 13th connects with each other. This can also be done by gluing, for example Melt the nonwoven.
