  • the active substance held by the holding device is preferably water-soluble and preferably contains substances which are selected from a group which contains, in particular, lime-dissolving substances, cleaning substances, fragrances, air freshening substances, disinfectants, foam-forming substances, odor scavengers, dyes and substances for dissolving urine stones and the like ,
  • the holding device has a receiving area which preferably consists of a ring made in one piece and which is fastened to the cleaning device by means of a fastening area connected thereto, preferably fastened by means of a positive and / or non-positive connection.
  • the connection of the fastening area to the receiving area is preferably made in one piece, " with the receiving area serving to receive the active substance.
  • the holding device is made up of two or more parts. leads, so that the attachment of the holding device to the cleaning device is done by assembling and fixing the individual parts of the holding device in an assembled state.
  • the two-part or multi-part holding device also has a fastening area and a receiving area connected to it, the fastening area being attachable to the cleaning device and the receiving area connected thereto receiving the active substance.
  • Such a holding device for attaching active substances to a cleaning device is thus not restricted to a special type of cleaning device, but rather can be attached to a large number of different cleaning devices.

Furthermore, the holding device preferably consists of a material which, like the active substance, dissolves through contact with water. However, the material of the holding device has a lower solubility than the active substance. Likewise, the material from which the holding device is made can contain fragrances or air fresheners, so that a continuous improvement of the room air, independent of the application, is achieved.
  • the active substance can be both solid and liquid or gel-like.
  • the solid active substance can be in the form of granules or small pieces of active substance.
  • the preferred embodiment of the present invention uses a solid and ring-shaped active substance.
  • the holding device according to the invention in particular the tab and / or the fastening area, can also be printed with advertising texts or graphics.
  • the holding device according to the invention is attached to a cleaning device by pushing the holding device over the holding area and / or part of the cleaning area of the cleaning device, preferably along the longitudinal axis of the cleaning device.
  • the inward-pointing projections of the fastening area are in a non-positive connection with the cleaning device and thus connect the holding device to the cleaning device above the cleaning bristles of the cleaning area.
  • the holding device is attached to the cleaning device by assembling the individual parts of the holding device so that the fastening area of the holding device on at least part of the holding area and / or the cleaning area encloses the cleaning device and thus there is a non-positive and / or positive connection between the holding device and the cleaning device.
  • the holding device can be removed either by pulling the holding device along the longitudinal axis of the cleaning device, or by detaching the individual parts of the holding device of a holding device made of two or more parts.
  • a holding device provided with a perforation and / or a tab can also be detached from the cleaning device by gripping the tab and pulling the holding device in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cleaning device. This leads to the perforation of the holding device being severed and thus to the detaching of the holding device from the cleaning device.
