- the cleaning surface element 4 can be turned, because that
- hook and loop sections are attached to a partially hollow, flat and rectangular dirt remover 7, which contains a distribution line in its interior, which leads to an area 5 for distributing and temporarily storing a cleaning liquid.
- a detailed description of area 5 is given with reference to FIGS. 5 to 7b.
- the handle 1 is in the form of a hollow body with a cavity 11 which serves as a storage for cleaning liquid.
- the handle 1 merges into a hollow, semi-cylindrical wing body 8 extending transversely to the handle, the flat front side 22 of which is congruent with the back of the protective support 7 and has contact with it.
- the wing body 8 has a centrally arranged recess 15 for receiving a piston pump 9.
- the piston pump 9 is connected to the inside of the dirt remover 7 via a short pipeline 18. Furthermore, an intake pipe 43 is connected to the pump 9, which leads into the cavity 11 from above.
- a relatively thin, resilient actuating lever 21 is arranged on the rear side of the wing body 8 and is attached to a thickening 24 so that it can be pressed down.
- the piston pump 9 is actuated with the actuating lever 21.
- Cleaning fluid which is located in the cavity of the handle 1, is sucked in via the line 43 and pressed into the dirt collector via a corresponding valve control. The cleaning liquid then reaches the area of the cleaning surface element 4 via the fine capillary openings 30.1 ... 30. n.
- a profiled wiper lip 13 made of rubber is arranged on an upper edge 17 of the dirt carrier 7.
- the dirt remover 7 is snap-connected to the wing body 8.
- the dirt remover 7 has two latching elements 23 projecting beyond its rear side (only one latching element 23 is shown in FIG. 1), which are to be inserted resiliently into the recess 15 in the wing body 8.
- a second embodiment can be seen in FIG.
- the construction shown in the figure is similar to the cleaning device 100.
- the actuating lever for the piston pump 9 is a C-profile 27 which is pivotably attached to two stiffening webs 25, 26 and which can be gripped with the fingers of the hand which encloses the handle.
- the pump function can be found in the description of FIG. 1.
- Stiffening webs 25, 26 and C-profile are embedded in a recess 15.
- the stiffening webs 25, 26 are firmly connected to the dirt remover 7.
- FIGS. 4 to 7b A preferred embodiment (reference number 300) of the cleaning device according to the invention is shown in FIGS. 4 to 7b.
- the capillary matrix 19 consists of a series of capillary openings 30.1 ... 30.n, which runs parallel to an upper edge 29 of the outlet plate 28.
- the outlet plate 28 is also provided with a web 31 projecting beyond its flat side, which engages in a groove 32 machined on the dirt remover 7 (see FIGS. 5 and 7a) and serves as a holder for the wiper lip 13. A thickening 33 of the wiper lip 13 is also pressed or pushed into this groove 32 (see FIGS. 5 and 6).
- the exit plate 28 is ultrasonically welded to the dirt remover 7. In another embodiment, the dirt remover 7 can also be glued to the outlet plate 28.
- the dirt remover 7 has an upper stiffening web 40 which extends over its entire width (FIGS. 5 and 6) and which slopes into the groove 32 already mentioned.
- the stiffening web 40 and the upper edge of the outlet plate 28 define the position of the wiper lip 13 inserted into the groove 32.
- the angle of inclination of the wiper lip 13 relative to the cleaning surface 4 is approximately 45 °. This arrangement ensures a good hold for the wiper lip 13, which can be turned or replaced.
- FIG. 5 also shows a wiping lip 13 shown in dashed lines, which is folded away.
- the wiping lip 13 is accordingly also pivotably mounted in the groove 32 in this exemplary embodiment.
- the scraper lip can also be provided with staggered double or triple scraper lip edges, such scraper lips also being arranged movably or pivotably in the groove 32.
- the groove section 38 ends with a continuous opening 39, through which the cleaning fluid m the groove 37 and m the congruent capillary matrix 19 can be pumped in.
- the elements designated 19, 37, 38, 39 form the area 5 for distributing and temporarily storing the cleaning fluid.

- the pump 9 of the cleaning device 300 is arranged perpendicular to the flat side of the dirt remover 7 within a sleeve 41 (see FIG. 5).
- a cylindrical return spring 42 belongs to the pump 9 and is tensioned when the actuating lever 21 is pressed on. By depressing the actuating lever 21, the pump piston is moved so that cleaning fluid is sucked out of the cavity 11 of the handle 1. Similar to a water pistol for children, the area of the capillary openings is then printed when the actuating lever is pressed again so that the cleaning liquid can flow into the cleaning surface element 4 and is distributed there without, however, causing total moisture penetration. If the cleaning surface element 4 is removed from the cleaning device, the capillary openings are exposed. In this case, the cleaning device can also be used to spray cleaning liquid directly onto the surface to be cleaned and to moisten it.
- the transport mechanism of the cleaning fluid in the plaster area can be simplified in that instead of Ner piston pump 9 a simple membrane element 59 is used, which can be deformed by pressing with the hand and m has a pumping effect in this way.
- Such an embodiment of the cleaning device (reference number 400) can be seen in FIGS. 8a to 8c. 8a shows an oval, rubber-like membrane element 59, which is arranged on the upper part of the handle 1, on which a corresponding oval opening has been cut out.
- FIG. 8b shows a different embodiment of the membrane element, which is connected to the hollow body 11 of the handle 1 via a bellows 58.

- FIG. 8c Another embodiment of the membrane element is shown in FIG. 8c, which extends over almost the entire length of the hollow body 11, specifically on its side facing the cleaning surface 4.
- the membrane element is made in one piece with the hollow body 11 made of plastic, so that part of the handle is elastically deformable and the rest of the hollow body is rigid.
- FIG. 9 A further embodiment of the cleaning device (reference number 500) is shown in FIG. 9, in which the handle 1 is connected to the wing body 8 via a joint element 55.
- the hinge element 55 consists of a plurality of plastic lamellae 56, which enables the wing body 8 to pivot in practically all directions, as in the case of a ball joint.
- a piston pump 9 as well as a membrane element 59 can be installed in such a cleaning device.
- FIG. 1 A special connection of the handle 1 to the wing body 8 is shown schematically in FIG an outwardly pointing projection 57 is introduced, which is compatible with an L-shaped groove 53 in an opening 62 (in the thickening 24 of the wing body) and forms a bayonet catch 60.
- a corresponding sealing ring (not shown) is provided.
- FIG. 11 shows a fleece cloth 20 which is attached to the dirt remover 7 in a hood-like manner by means of a circumferential rubber band 54.
