Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Reinigungstextil und ein Reinigungsgerät, das eine textile Reinigungsoberfläche aufweist, und insbesondere auf ein Reinigungstextil für Trocken-, Feucht- und Naß-Reinigungsgeräte bzw. auf ein maschinelles oder manuelles Reinigungs/Polier-Gerät mit textiler Reinigungs/Polier-Oberfläche.The present invention relates to a cleaning textile and a cleaning device that has a textile cleaning surface has, and in particular on a cleaning textile for dry, wet and wet cleaning devices or on a machine or manual cleaning / polishing device with textile cleaning / polishing surface.

Die DE 4427 107 A1 offenbart ein Reinigungstextil oder ein Reinigungsgerät mit Fransen, wobei die Fransen Ringspinngarne mit paralleler Faserstruktur anstatt Rotorgarnen mit ungeordneter Faserstruktur aufweisen, um eine Flusenbildung zu vermindern.DE 4427 107 A1 discloses a cleaning textile or a Cleaning device with fringe, the fringe ring spun yarn with a parallel fiber structure instead of rotor yarns disordered fiber structure to prevent fluff to diminish.

Zur Anwendung von Reinigungstextilien beschreibt die DE-A-3 714 178 bereits ein Reinigungsgerät mit einem Reinigungsgerätehauptabschnitt, und eines Befestigungseinrichtung, welche an letzterem ein Reinigungstextil befestigt.DE-A-3 describes the use of cleaning textiles 714 178 already a cleaning device with a cleaning device main section, and a fastening device, which attached to the latter a cleaning textile.

Die DE 195 10 824 C1 betrifft einen Flachwischbezug für die Fußbodenreinigung, bei dem für dessen Reinigungsoberfläche ein hochsaugfähiges Material verwendet wird, das aus Mischgarnen besteht, die Kunst- und Natur-Fasern, wie z.B. Polyesterfasern, Mikrofasern und Baumwollfasern, aufweisenDE 195 10 824 C1 relates to a flat mop cover for the Floor cleaning, for the cleaning surface a highly absorbent material is used, which is made from blended yarns which consists of synthetic and natural fibers, e.g. Polyester fibers, Microfibers and cotton fibers

Die US 5,010,723 offenbart ein Garn, das aus zwei oder mehreren gewundenen Zellulosefasern, wie z. B. Baumwoll- oder Baumwollreyon-Fasern erzeugt wird, wobei die Lagen schraubenförmig um einen thermoplastischen Elementarfadenkern (Filament Core) gewunden werden, der anschließend geschmolzen wird, um die inneren Abschnitte des Garns zu verbinden, so daß sich dasselbe nicht aufdreht oder ohne weiteres Flusen verliert. Das Garn wird bei einem Staubmop oder bei einer Bodenmatte für eine Shampoohaube für einen behandelten fleckenbeständigen Teppich verwendet.US 5,010,723 discloses a yarn made up of two or more tortuous cellulose fibers such as B. cotton or Cotton rayon fibers are produced, the layers being helical around a thermoplastic filament core (Filament Core) which is then melted is going to connect the inner sections of the yarn so that the same does not turn up or easily Lint loses. The yarn comes in a dust mop or for a floor mat for a shampoo hood for a treated one stain resistant carpet used.

Die im Stand der Technik eingesetzten Reinigungstextilien, wie z. B. Wischbezüge, bestehen zumeist aus Mischgarnen, Mikrofasergarnen und Plüsch mit einem Viskose- oder Baumwoll-Anteil von 35% und einem Polyesteranteil von 65%, wobei die Garne als Nm-10/5-Garn, das im Rotor/Ringspinnverfahren hergestellt wird, ausgeführt sind.The cleaning textiles used in the prior art, such as B. mop covers, mostly consist of blended yarns, Microfiber yarns and plush with a viscose or cotton content of 35% and a polyester content of 65%, whereby the yarns as Nm-10/5 yarn, the rotor / ring spinning process is produced, executed.

Alle diese Reinigungstextilien haben entsprechend ihrer Ausführung relativ begrenzte bis gute Reinigungseigenschaften, sind jedoch mit nachteiligen bis massiven Nebenwirkungen behaftet.All of these cleaning textiles have according to their design relatively limited to good cleaning properties, However, they have adverse to massive side effects.

So sind z. B. fast alle Garne trotz hoher Drehung (bei Rotorgarnen mehr - bei Ringspinngarnen weniger) nach mehrmaliger Wäsche durch mechanische Einwirkung geöffnet und beginnen das für den Anwender überaus problematische Ausflusen/Ausfusseln, das z. B. beim Waschen von Reinigungstextilien, die aus diesen Garnen bestehen, zu einer Verstopfung einer Waschmaschine führen kann.So z. B. almost all yarns despite high twist (with rotor yarns more - less for ring spun yarns) after repeated Open the laundry by mechanical means and start the extremely problematic fluffing / linting for the user, the Z. B. when washing cleaning textiles, consisting of these yarns, to constipation a washing machine.

Auch die angewendeten Mikrofaser-Plüsche und -Garne sind von der Problematik des Ausflusens/Ausfusselns nicht frei, und besitzen zusätzlich dazu agressive Reinigungseigenschaften. Diese Plüsche und Garne können z. B. die übliche Acrylatbeschichtung von Kunststoffhartböden beschädigen bzw. Oberflächen, wie Resopal, Glas und sonstige Oberflächen, angreifen.The microfiber plushes and yarns used are also from the problem of outflowing / fluffing is not free, and also have aggressive cleaning properties. These plushes and yarns can e.g. B. the usual acrylic coating of plastic hard floors or damage surfaces, such as Formica, glass and other surfaces.

Die Problematik des Ausflusens von Garnen kann, wie oben erwähnt, durch die thermische Behandlung der Garne reduziert werden, jedoch tritt die gleiche Problematik bei rauhen Stein- und Fliesenböden trotz dieser Maßnahmen wieder auf. Leider sind bei thermischer Behandlung ferner die guten Saugeigenschaften der beschriebenen Garne nachweislich deutlich verschlechtert.The problem of yarn leakage can, as above mentioned, reduced by the thermal treatment of the yarns are, however, the same problem occurs with rough Stone and tile floors despite these measures. Unfortunately, thermal treatments are also the good ones Suction properties of the yarns described are demonstrably clear deteriorated.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, ein Reinigungstextil und Reinigungsgerät mit besseren Reinigungseigenschaften insbesondere mit einer geringeren Flusenbildung und sanftem Reinigungsverhalten bei gleichzeitig hoher Saugkraft zu schaffen.The object of the present invention is a Cleaning textile and cleaning device with better cleaning properties especially with less fluff and gentle cleaning behavior at the same time to create high suction power.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Reinigungstextil gemäß Anspruch 1 und ein Reinigungsgerät gemäß Anspruch 10 gelöst.This object is achieved by a cleaning textile according to claim 1 and a cleaning device according to claim 10 solved.

Zur Erreichung eines sanften Reinigungsverhaltens mit verbesserler Schabwirkung ist aus der EP-A-0 806 505 bereits ein Reinigungstextil bestehend aus einer geschlossene oder offene Schlingen aufweisenden Reinigungsoberfläche aus Flockgarn bekannt.To achieve a gentle cleaning behavior with improver The scraping effect from EP-A-0 806 505 is already a cleaning textile consisting of a closed or open loop Known cleaning surface from flock yarn.

Der Erfindung liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, daß durch die Verwendung eines neuentwickelten Flockgarns bei einem Reinigungstextil bzw. bei einem Reinigungsgerät, das ein Reinigungstextil aufweist, die Öffnung/Aufdrehung des Garnes/Gewebes, das das Reinigungstextil bildet, und daraus folgend die Flusenbildung unterbunden werden kann.The invention is based on the finding that Use of a newly developed flock yarn on a cleaning textile or a cleaning device that has a cleaning textile has the opening / untwisting of the yarn / fabric, that forms the cleaning textile, and consequently the formation of fluff can be prevented.

Ein Vorteil der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, daß durch die Verwendung des Flockgarns die Reinigungsergebnisse aufgrund der Unterbindung der Flusenbildung verbessert werden können, und insbesondere der enorme Kostenaufwand reduziert werden kann, der z. B. bei Mopbezügen in der BRD (alte Bundesländer) im gewerblichen Bereich bei einem Jahresbedarf von 12 Millionen Stück liegt (Stand 1986).An advantage of the present invention is that by using the flock yarn the cleaning results be improved due to the prevention of lint formation can, and in particular the enormous cost is reduced can be the z. B. with mop covers in the FRG (old federal states) in the commercial area at one Annual requirement of 12 million pieces (as of 1986).

Ein weiterer Vorteil der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, daß das neuentwickelte Flockgarn eine sehr hohe Reinigungsleistung auf fast allen stark verschmutzten, üblichen Böden (wie z. B. Stein-, PVC-, Linoleum- und Marmor-Böden usw.) bzw. Metallen mit 30% weniger Garneinsatz ermöglicht. Dies gilt insbesondere auch für die Reinigung von sogenannten Sicherheitsböden, d. h. beispielsweise von rutschfesten Keramikböden.Another advantage of the present invention is that the newly developed flock yarn has a very high cleaning performance on almost all heavily soiled, usual Floors (such as stone, PVC, linoleum and marble floors etc.) or metals with 30% less yarn use. This applies in particular to the cleaning of so-called Safety floors, d. H. for example of non-slip Ceramic floors.

Noch ein weiterer Vorteil der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, daß das neuentwickelte Flockgarn eine Strukturanordnung aufweist, die eine schonende, intensive und aufgrund der hohen Saugfähigkeit wirtschaftliche Reinigung mit kurzen Trocknungszeiten bewirkt, und daß eine Öffnung/Aufdrehung des Garnes oder des Gewebes aufgrund der später erläuterten Konstruktion des Garnes nicht möglich ist, so daß der Einsatz von Flockgarnen in der erfindungsgemäßen Form Reinigungsleistungen erzielt, die deulich über dem Stand der Technik liegen.Yet another advantage of the present invention is in that the newly developed flock yarn has a structural arrangement has a gentle, intense and due the high absorbency economical cleaning with short Drying times causes and opening / untwisting of the yarn or fabric based on those explained later Construction of the yarn is not possible, so the use of flock yarns in the form according to the invention cleaning services achieved, which is clearly above the level of Technology.

Das Reinigungstextil der vorliegenden Erfindung kann beispielsweise für ein manuelles/maschinelles Reinigungsgerät mit textiler Reinigungsoberfläche verwendet werden, wobei es sich z. B. bei dem Reinigungstextil um einen Trocken-, Feucht- oder Naßwischbezug für Fußboden/Wandreinigungsgeräte, ein Teppichreinigungspad, Textilbezüge für einen Großflächenmop, Fensterreinigungsbezüge, Textilschmutzfangmatten, Textilbezüge für Reinigungswalzen und -teller als auch um ein textiles Poliermedium für das Polieren von Ne-Metallen handeln kann.For example, the cleaning fabric of the present invention can for a manual / machine cleaning device be used with textile cleaning surface, it z. B. in the cleaning textile around a dry, Wet or wet wipe cover for floor / wall cleaning devices, a carpet cleaning pad, textile covers for a large area mop, Window cleaning covers, textile dirt control mats, Textile covers for cleaning rollers and plates as also a textile polishing medium for polishing non-ferrous metals can act.

Die Reinigungsoberfläche des Reinigungstextils weist ein Flockgarn auf, das einen Garnträger hat, der an seiner Oberfläche beflockt ist. Der Garnträger oder Trägerfaden besteht typischerweise aus einem Viskosegarn (830 dtex). Auf diesem Garnträger wird mittels eines Klebers, der z. B. ein Acrylatkleber bzw. ein Acrylatverfestiger und Polyacryl sein kann, eine Beflockung bzw. Flock, der typischerweise aus Polyamidflock besteht, aufgebracht, um das Flockgarn zu bilden. Dies geschieht bei Multifilamentgarnen (Multielementarfadengarnen) als Garnträger typischerweise durch eine gleichmäßige Rundumbeflockung während des Drehens des Fadens in einem elektrostatischen Feld, um den Flock rundum, radial senkrecht wegstehend, wie z. B bei einem Pfeifenreiniger, auf dem Garnträger aufzubringen. Bei Monofilamentgarnen (Monoelementarfadengarnen), die sich nicht drehen lassen, kann eine Befleckung ebenfalls in elektrostatischen Feldern, jedoch unter Verwendung von volumetrischen Elektroden, erfolgen.The cleaning surface of the cleaning textile shows Flock yarn that has a yarn carrier on its surface is flocked. The thread carrier or carrier thread is made typically from a viscose yarn (830 dtex). On this Yarn carrier is by means of an adhesive z. B. an acrylate adhesive or an acrylate hardener and polyacrylic can, a flocking, which is typically from Polyamide flock is applied to the flock yarn form. This happens with multifilament yarns (multi-element yarns) as a yarn carrier typically by a Even all-round flocking while the thread is rotating in an electrostatic field, around the flock, radially standing vertically, such as. B with a pipe cleaner, to apply on the thread carrier. For monofilament yarns (Mono-element yarns) that cannot be turned, staining can also occur in electrostatic fields, however, using volumetric electrodes.

Das oben beschriebene Flockgarn wird auch als MPR-Garn (Mop-Robot-Garn) bezeichnet, das ein Dreikomponentengarn ist, das aus einem Garnträger, z. B. aus technischem Viskosegarn, einem sogenannten Tetilstabilisator, nämlich einem Kleber, wie z. B. Acrylatverfestiger und Polyacryl, und der Beflockung, wie z.B. einer Polyamidbeflockung, besteht.The flock yarn described above is also called MPR yarn (Mop Robot Yarn), which is a three-component yarn is that from a yarn carrier, for. B. from technical viscose yarn, a so-called tetabilizer, namely one Glue such as B. acrylate and polyacrylic, and the Flocking, e.g. a polyamide flocking.

Die Besonderheit der Strukturanordnung des Flockgarns liegt darin, daß durch die geordnete, feste und dichte Rundumanordnung des Flocks auf dem Garnträger, der Flockgarn eine sehr große wirksame Reinigungsoberfläche, eine starke Bürstenwirkung, ohne zu beschädigen, und durch die Wirkung des Klebers (Textilstabilisators) und die radiale Anordnung des Flocks, eine stabile Struktur aufweist. Die große Reinigungsoberfläche des Garns, die durch die geordnete, dichte Beflockung erreicht wird, schafft eine hervorragende Aufnahmefähigkeit für Schmutz und Feuchtigkeit, gleichzeitig jedoch auch eine gute Pflegeleichtigkeit. Durch die regelmäßige und sehr dichte, dennoch für Luft durchdringbare, Anordnung des Flocks, weist das Garn ferner ein sehr gutes Trocknungsverhalten auf. Nachweislich besitzt das Flockgarn zusätzlich weiter positive Eigenschaften, wie z.B. eine gute Scheuerbeständigkeit, Lichtbeständigkeit etc. Alle diese Eigenschaften werden unter relativ geringem Materialeinsatz im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Garnen erreicht, was dieses Garn sehr wirtschaftlich macht.The peculiarity of the structure of the flock yarn lies in that through the orderly, firm and dense all-round arrangement of the flock on the thread carrier, the flock thread one very large effective cleaning surface, a strong one Brush effect without damaging, and by the effect of the adhesive (textile stabilizer) and the radial arrangement of the flock, has a stable structure. The large cleaning surface of the yarn by the orderly, dense Flocking is achieved, creates an excellent absorption capacity for dirt and moisture, at the same time but also easy to care for. Through the regular and very dense, yet air-permeable, arrangement of the flock, the yarn also has a very good Drying behavior. The flock yarn has been proven additional positive properties, e.g. a good Abrasion resistance, light resistance etc. all of these Properties are made using relatively little material compared to conventional yarns, what this achieves Makes yarn very economical.

Typischerweise ist das Reinigungstextil als Gewebe aufgebaut, dessen Schuß mindestens das Flockgarn aufweist und dessen Kette aus einem nicht beflockten Garn besteht. Der Schuß kann aus einem Mehrkomponentengarn bestehen, daß neben dem Flockgarn noch mindestens Polyestergarn, Modalgarn, Baumwollgarn und Wolle aufweist. Die Kette des Gewebes kann aus Polyestergarn, Modalgarn, Baumwollgarn und/oder Wolle bestehen.The cleaning textile is typically constructed as a fabric, whose weft has at least the flock yarn and whose chain consists of a flocked thread. The Weft can consist of a multi-component yarn that next the flock yarn at least polyester yarn, modal yarn, Has cotton yarn and wool. The chain of the fabric can made of polyester yarn, modal yarn, cotton yarn and / or wool consist.

Das erhaltene Reinigungstextil wird z. B. im Anwendungsbereich der Fußboden/Wandreinigung etc. als Wischbezug mittels einer Befestigungseinrichtung, wie z. B. einem Klapphalter, einer Platte mit einer Klemmvorrichtung oder einem Klettverschluß in bedarfsgemäßer Länge befestigt, und kommt z. B. mit geschlossenen oder offenen Schlingen/Fransen in einer Länge von 1 bis 12 cm zum Einsatz.The cleaning textile obtained is z. B. in the field of application the floor / wall cleaning etc. as a mop cover a fastener such. B. a folding holder, a plate with a clamping device or a Velcro fastener attached in the required length, and comes z. B. with closed or open loops / fringes in one Length from 1 to 12 cm for use.

Das Reinigungstextil der vorliegenden Erfindung ermöglicht eine schonenden, intensive und aufgrund der sehr hohen Saugfähigkeit, bei daraus folgendem geringeren Materialeinsatz, eine wirtschaftliche Reinigung mit kurzen Trocknungszeiten. Eine Öffnung/Aufdrehung des Garnes oder des Gewebes, aus dem das Reinigungstextil besteht, ist aufgrund der Konstruktion des Garnes nicht möglich, so daß der Einsatz von MPR-Garnen in der erfindungsgemäßen Form Reinigungsleistungen erzielt, die deutlich über dem Stand der Technik liegen.The cleaning fabric of the present invention enables a gentle, intensive and due to the very high absorbency, with the resulting lower use of material, economical cleaning with short drying times. An opening / untwisting of the yarn or fabric from which the cleaning textile is due to the construction of the yarn is not possible, so the use of MPR yarns achieved cleaning performance in the form according to the invention, which are well above the state of the art.
