Definitions

  • the invention relates to a handle for a cleaning device.
  • the telescopic handle includes z. B. two steplessly telescopically telescoping telescopic rods, wherein at one end face of the telescopic handle a rotatesvor - / - device and on the other end face of the telescopic handle a handle is arranged. In the collapsed state of the telescopic handle, this has approximately the length of the longest telescopic rod.
  • Another previously known handle comprises a plurality of respective rigid parts, which are non-positively and / or positively connected with each other.
  • the invention has for its object to develop a handle for a cleaning device such that it is simple and inexpensive to produce in manufacturing and economic terms, that the stem has a good durability during a long service life that a part of the length is infinitely variable that the handle is easy to handle for the user and has a low pack size overall.
  • a handle for a cleaning device comprising at least one in the longitudinal direction of the handle in its variable length telescopic part and at least one rigid in the longitudinal direction of the stem part, the telescopic part and the rigid part are non-destructively releasably connected together.
  • the telescopic part in such a handle, it is possible to form the telescopic part as a handle and to attach the rigid part on the side facing the surface to be cleaned on the telescopic part.
  • the handling of such a handle is particularly easy for the user. It is also advantageous that the mechanism of the telescopic part is protected because of its arrangement on the top of the stem, for example, from cleaning fluid. As a result, the function of the telescope part is retained during a long service life without restriction.
  • variable length telescopic part By combining the variable length telescopic part with the rigid part of the stem, as far as it allows the telescopic part to be infinitely variably adapted to the particular circumstances of the application and the stem has only a small pack size.
  • the small pack size reduces packaging and shipping costs to a minimum.
  • the small pack size results from the fact that the telescopic part in the fully collapsed state preferably has a length, as the rigid part.
  • the stem has following the assembly of the telescopic part with the rigid part, provided that the telescope part has two telescopically telescoping telescopic rods of about the same length, a maximum length which is about three times as large as the length of the rigid part. If, on the other hand, three rigid parts were used, as is known from the prior art, on the one hand, the assembly effort for the user would be greater because the three rigid parts would have to be connected together in two assembly operations, in contrast to an assembly process in which the Telescope part is connected to the rigid part. On the other hand, a handle consisting of three rigid parts would not have an infinitely variable range, by means of which it can be adapted particularly well to the particular circumstances of the application.
  • the stem would be a disadvantage that the telescopic part in the collapsed state would be much longer, thereby would have a larger pack size and the packaging and shipping costs would be undesirably high.
  • the telescopic part had, for example, three parts and would have three telescopically telescoping telescopic rods, the thinnest telescopic rod would have to be designed for durability. The thickest telescopic rod would be significantly oversized, would have a high weight, and the stem would be disadvantageous in handling.
  • a telescopic part is used, which is connected to only two rigid parts.
  • Such a combination is particularly advantageous in terms of simple and inexpensive manufacturability, good durability, a disassembled state of short length, which requires a small pack size and low packaging and shipping costs.
  • the handling of such a handle is easy for the user.
  • the telescope part viewed in the longitudinal direction, is arranged between the two rigid parts.
  • the telescopic part can form the upper handle of the stem, with the telescoping member joining longitudinally in the direction of a surface to be cleaned, the two rigid parts.
  • the telescopic part has in the collapsed state a length which preferably corresponds to the length of the longest rigid part.
  • the pack size depends on the longest part of the stem. On the other hand, it is advantageous if the telescopic part as large as possible stepless
  • Adjustability is achieved.
  • a small pack size on the one hand by a compact length of the disassembled components of the stem and on the other hand the largest possible stepless adjustability of the telescopic part is then achieved when the telescope part in the collapsed state a
  • Length equal to the length of the longest rigid part.
  • the two rigid parts also have a matching length.
  • the handle is formed in three parts, comprising a telescopic part and the two rigid parts, wherein the telescopic part in the collapsed state has the same length as any rigid part.
  • the handle In the assembled state, the handle then has a length which corresponds to at least three times the length of one of the parts.
  • the maximum length of the stem is achieved with telescope part pulled apart.
  • the maximum length of the stem is about four times the length of one of the parts, the length being between 3 or 4 times the length of one of the parts is infinitely variable.
  • the two rigid parts may be formed as equal parts. It is advantageous that the stem is easy and inexpensive to produce by the same parts and that the handling of the stem for the user, especially in the assembly of the individual parts of the stem, is simplified. Assembly errors are reduced to a minimum.
  • the two rigid parts can be formed of the same material. They can for example consist of steel or aluminum or of polymeric materials.
  • the two rigid parts are preferably tubular in each case.
  • the stem has a comparatively low weight overall. The handling of the cleaning device is thereby simplified as a whole.
  • the diameters of the two rigid parts are preferably 15 to 25 mm. This ensures a good compromise between low weight and resistance to breakage.
  • the telescope part can be formed by only two telescopically telescoping telescopic rods.
  • the differences in diameter between the two telescopic rods are only comparatively small due to the small number of telescopic rods.
  • the telescopic part consisted of, for example, three or four telescopically telescoping telescopic rods, the weakest of the telescopic rods would have to be designed for durability. At least the thickest of the telescopic rods would be significantly oversized and the stem would have a disadvantageous for the handling, high weight.
  • the telescopic rods preferably have a diameter which is 20 to 30 mm.
  • the invention relates to a cleaning device with a handle according to one of claims 1 to 12, wherein the handle of this cleaning device has the advantages described above.
  • the cleaning device is characterized in manufacturing technology and economic terms easy and inexpensive to produce, has a good durability during a long service life can be used variably due to the variable length of the handle, is easy to handle and has a low pack size overall.
  • FIGS 1 to 3 Three embodiments of the handle according to the invention and an embodiment of the cleaning device according to the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to FIGS 1 to 3.
  • Fig. 1 shows a first embodiment of the handle according to the invention, wherein the stem consists of only one telescopic handle and only one rigid part, which are interconnected.
  • Fig. 2 shows an embodiment of the cleaning device according to the invention with a second embodiment of the handle according to the invention, wherein the stem according to the invention consists of a telescopic part and two rigid parts, wherein the telescope part, viewed in the longitudinal direction, is arranged between the two rigid parts.
  • Fig. 3 shows a third embodiment of a stem, wherein the telescopic part, in contrast to the stem of Fig. 2, the upper handle of the stem forms.
  • a first embodiment of the handle 1 forms a part of a cleaning device 2.
  • the stem comprises a telescopic part 4 and a rigid part 5, wherein the Telescope part 4 in the longitudinal direction 3 of the stem 1 in its length is variable.
  • the rigid part 5 is tubular and non-destructive releasably connected to the telescopic part 4.
  • the connection of the telescopic part 4 and the rigid part 5 takes place for example by a clamping connection or by a screw connection of the mutually facing end sides of the interconnected parts 4, 5.
  • the telescopic part 4 in the collapsed state has a length 9 which corresponds to the length 10 of the rigid part 5.
  • the telescopic part 4 consists of only two telescopically telescoping telescopic rods 14, 15, wherein the thinner of the two telescopic rods 15 is connected to the rigid part 5.
  • the maximum length of the stem 1 is about three times as large as the length 9 of the telescopic part 4 in the collapsed state, this length 9 corresponds to the length 10 of the rigid part 5.
  • FIG. 2 shows a second exemplary embodiment of the handle 1 and the cleaning device 2 to which the handle 1 belongs.
