Description

Technisches GebletTechnical prayer

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Wischbezug für ein Reinigungsgerät, umfassend ein textiles Flächengebilde mit einer Reinigungsseite.The invention relates to a mop cover for a cleaning device, comprising a textile fabric with a cleaning side.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Derartige Wischbezüge werden meist-auf die Wischplatte eines Flachwischers aufgezogen, der wiederum mittels eines Stiels bedient wird. Aus der DE 101 53 801 A1 ist eine Wischplatte für einen Flachwischer bekannt der eine Funkftionsfläche aufweist die mit Noppen oder Rippen ausgerüstet ist. Diese Noppen oder Rippen sind so an der Wischplatte angeordnet dass sie mit dem Wischbezug dann in Eingriff gelangen, wenn über den Stiel ein erhöhter Druck auf die Wischplatte ausgeübt wird. Dadurch ergibt sich im Bereich der Funktionafläche eine erhöhte Flächenpressung des Wischbezugs auf den zu reinigenden Boden. Die erhöhte Flächenpressung verbessert die Reinigungsleistung bei fest anhaftenden Verschmutzungen.Such mop covers are usually mounted on the mop plate of a flat wiper, which in turn is operated by means of a handle. From the DE 101 53 801 A1 is a wiper plate for a flat wiper known which has a Funkftionsfläche which is equipped with knobs or ribs. These nubs or ribs are arranged on the mop plate so that they then engage with the mop cover when an elevated pressure is exerted on the mop plate via the stem. This results in the area of the functional surface increased surface pressure of the mop cover on the floor to be cleaned. The increased surface pressure improves the cleaning performance with firmly adhering soiling.

US 2005/0061356 A1 offenbart Reinigungstücher, die auf der Reinigungsoberfläche eine Vielzahl von kissenartigen Ausbuchtungen aufweisen. Diese dienen zum Ableiten von Flüssigkeiten zum Reinigen von harten Oberflächen. US 2005/0061356 A1 discloses cleaning wipes having a plurality of pillow-like protrusions on the cleaning surface. These are used to drain off liquids for cleaning hard surfaces.

DE 10 2004 039 516 A1 betrifft Scheuertücher, deren Reinigungsflächen Reliefmuster aufweisen, wobei die Reinigungsfläche mit einer Scheuermittelzusammensetzung bedeckt ist. DE 10 2004 039 516 A1 relates to cleaning cloths whose cleaning surfaces have relief patterns, the cleaning surface being covered with a scouring composition.

Darstellung der ErfindungPresentation of the invention

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Wischbezug bereitzustellen, der unabhängig von der Ausgestaltung der Wischplatte eine verbesserte Reinigungswirkung gegenüber fest anhaftenden Verschmutzungen aufweist.The invention has for its object to provide a mop cover, which has an improved cleaning effect against firmly adhering dirt regardless of the design of the mop plate.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit den Merkmalen von Anspruch 1 gelöst. Auf vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen nehmen die Unteransprüche Bezug.This object is achieved with the features of claim 1. In advantageous embodiments, the dependent claims relate.

Zur Lösung der Aufgabe ist das Flächengebilde mit Andruckkörpern ausgerüstet und die Andruckkörper sind so mit dem Flächengebilde in Eingriff bringbar, dass sich eine punktförmige Anpressung der Reinigungsseite an den zu reinigenden Boden ergibt. Die Reinigungsseite besteht meist aus einem Textil, welches auf der dem zu reinigenden Boden zugewandten Seite mit einem Reinigungsflor ausgerüstet ist. Die Andruckkörper sind dann auf der anderen Seite, der der Wischplatte zugewandten Seite, angeordnet. Wird auf den Stiel und damit auf die Wischplatte durch den Benutzer ein erhöhter Druck ausgeübt, verursachen die Andruckkörper einen erhöhten Druck auf den Wischbezug und damit eine erhöhte Flächenpressung des Wischbezugs an die zu reinigende Fläche. Dadurch verbessert sich die Reinigungsleistung des Wischbezugs gegenüber fest anhaftenden Verschmutzungen unabhängig von der Art der verwendeten Wischplatte. Da das Textil und der Reinigungsflor der Reinigungsseite flexibel sind, kann der Anpressdruck in einem weiten Bereich variiert werden.To solve the problem, the sheet is equipped with Andruckkörpern and the pressure body are so engageable with the fabric in engagement that results in a point-like contact of the cleaning side of the floor to be cleaned. The cleaning side usually consists of a textile, which is equipped on the floor to be cleaned facing side with a Reinigungsflor. The pressure bodies are then arranged on the other side, the side facing the mop plate. If an increased pressure is exerted on the handle and thus on the wiper plate by the user, the pressure bodies cause increased pressure on the mop cover and thus an increased surface pressure of the mop cover on the surface to be cleaned. This improves the cleaning performance of the mop cover against firmly adhering dirt regardless of the type of mop plate used. Since the textile and the Reinigungsflor the cleaning side are flexible, the contact pressure can be varied within a wide range.

Die Andruckkörper werden einerseits aus elastomerem Material gebildet. Diese Materialien weisen hohe Reibbeiwerte auf, wodurch der Wischbezug rutschfest an der Wischplatte geführt werden kann. Des Weiteren kann die Andruckkraft fein dosiert werden. Andererseits werden die Andruckkörper formstabil ausgebildet. Derartige Andruckkörper ermöglichen eine besonders große punktförmige Andruckkraft und dadurch eine besonders große Reinigungsleistung.The pressure bodies are formed on the one hand from elastomeric material. These materials have high coefficients of friction, whereby the mop cover can be guided non-slip on the mop plate. Furthermore, the pressure force can be finely dosed. On the other hand, the pressure bodies are formed dimensionally stable. Such pressure bodies allow a particularly large punctiform pressure force and thus a particularly large cleaning performance.

Das Flächengebilde kann mehrschichtig ausgebildet sein. Die verschiedenen Schichten weisen unterschiedliche Ausrüstungen auf, wobei eine Schicht eine besonders hohe Wasseraufnahmekapazität und eine andere Schicht eine besonders hohe Flexibilität aufweisen kann. Die Andruckkörper können separat auf oder zwischen den Schichten angeordnet oder in eine der Schichten eingebettet werden.The sheet may be formed multi-layered. The different layers have different equipment, one layer having a particularly high water absorption capacity and another layer having a particularly high flexibility. The pressure bodies may be arranged separately on or between the layers or embedded in one of the layers.

Zumindest eine Schicht kann aus einem Schaumstoff bestehen. Schaumstoffe, insbesondere solche aus einem offenzelligen Kunststoff weisen einerseits eine hohe Wasseraufnahmekapazität und andererseits auch eine hohe Flexibilität auf und können reversibel verformt werden. Beim Ausüben von Druck auf die Wischplatte wird der Schaumstoff komprimiert und die Andruckkörper gelangen in Eingriff mit der Reinigungsseite.At least one layer may consist of a foam. Foams, in particular those made of an open-cell plastic, have on the one hand a high water absorption capacity and on the other hand also a high degree of flexibility and can be reversibly deformed. When applying pressure to the mop plate, the foam is compressed and the pressure bodies engage the cleaning side.

Die Andruckkörper können in dem Schaumstoff eingebettet sein. Bei dieser Ausgestaltung sind die Andruckkörper zunächst vollständig vom Schaumstoff bedeckt und die Reinigungsseite des Wischbezugs wird gleichmäßig an die zu reinigende Oberfläche gedrückt. Dadurch ergibt sich eine gleichmäßige Wasserabgabe und ein gleichmäßiges Wischergebnis. Die Andruckkörper gelangen nur dann in Eingriff mit der Reinigungsseite wenn der Schaumstoff durch Ausüben von Druck auf die Wischplatte so weit komprimiert ist, dass dessen Dicke der Dicke der Andruckkörper entspricht. Durch die Andruckkörper ergibt sich die punktförmige Anpressung der Reinigungsseite an den zu reinigenden Boden und dadurch eine verbesserte Reinigungsleistung gegenüber fest anhaftenden Verschmutzungen. The pressure bodies can be embedded in the foam. In this embodiment, the pressure bodies are initially completely covered by the foam and the cleaning side of the mop cover is pressed uniformly to the surface to be cleaned. This results in a uniform release of water and a uniform wiping result. The pressure bodies only come into engagement with the cleaning side when the foam is compressed by exerting pressure on the mop plate so far that its thickness corresponds to the thickness of the pressure body. By pressing the punctiform contact pressure of the cleaning side results in the soil to be cleaned and thus improved cleaning performance against firmly adhering dirt.

Die Andruckkörper können kugelförmig ausgebildet sein. Derartige Andruckkörper sind einfach und kostengünstig herstellbar und die Kugeloberfläche verhindert aufgrund ihrer Geometrie eine zu hohe punktförmige Flächenpressung der Andruckkörper an Reinigungsseite die zu einer Zerstörung des Wischbezugs führen könnte.The pressure bodies may be spherical. Such pressure bodies are simple and inexpensive to produce and the Due to its geometry, the ball surface prevents too high punctiform surface pressure of the pressure bodies on the cleaning side, which could lead to destruction of the mop cover.

Die Andruckkörper können gleichmäßig über das Flächengebilde verteilt sein. Dadurch kann die abrasiven Eigenschaften der Andruckkörper über die gesamte Breite der Wischplatte genutzt werden. In anderen Ausgestaltungen können die Andruckkörper im Bereich der Stielanbindung an die Wischplatte konzentriert sein. Da in diesem Bereich die Andruckkräfte am Größten sind, ist hier auch die Flächenpressung und damit die Reinigungsleistung am GrößtenThe pressure bodies can be evenly distributed over the sheet. This allows the abrasive properties of the pressure body over the entire width of the mop plate can be used. In other embodiments, the pressure bodies may be concentrated in the region of the handle connection to the mop plate. Since the pressure forces are the largest in this area, here is the surface pressure and thus the cleaning performance of the largest

Die Andruckkörper können netzartig miteinander verbunden sein. Dadurch sind die Andruckkörper miteinander verbunden und können einfach und kostengünstig in einem Arbeitsgang auf dem Wischbezug angeordnet werden. Durch das netzartige Gebilde erhöht sich auch die Festigkeit des Wischbezugs.The pressure bodies can be connected to one another like a net. As a result, the pressure bodies are connected to each other and can be easily and inexpensively arranged in one operation on the mop cover. The net-like structure also increases the strength of the mop cover.

Die Verbindung kann mittels Fäden aus einem Kunststoff oder mittels metallischen Drähten erfolgen. Kunststofffäden sind kostengünstig und metallische Drähte sind besonders robust. Die Andruckkörper können aus einem metallischen Werkstoff oder aus Kunststoff bestehen. Andruckkörper aus metallischen Werkstoffen weisen eine besonders hohe Härte und damit eine besonders hohe abrasive Wirkung auf. Andruckkörper aus Kunststoff sind kostengünstig.The connection can be made by means of threads made of a plastic or by means of metallic wires. Plastic threads are inexpensive and metallic wires are particularly robust. The pressure bodies may consist of a metallic material or of plastic. Pressure bodies of metallic materials have a particularly high hardness and thus a particularly high abrasive effect. Plastic pressure bodies are inexpensive.
