Definitions

  • the invention relates to a wiping cover for a cleaning device, comprising at least two layers which are arranged relative to each other such that a pocket to accommodate a part of a cleaning device is obtained, wherein a wipe-active material is attached to at least one layer.
  • Such wiping covers are mounted on wiping plates of flat wipe cloths and serve for the moist cleaning of floor coverings.
  • the layers of the wiping covers mostly consist of a textile fabric and the wipe-active materials are for example strands or flat coverings of microfibres.
  • the wipe-active materials accommodate the cleaning liquid and the dirt particles during cleaning.
  • To manufacture a wiping cover the layers are joined with one another through sewing. The strands are frequently attached on the layers also through a seam. Although this type of joining is particularly robust and durable it however requires great manual effort so that the manufacture of a wiping cover is time-intensive and expensive.
  • EP 1 704 808 A1 relates to a wiping cover for a cleaning device comprising two layers, whein the wiping cover has the form of a pocket. However, the document is silent about additional wiping-active materials.
  • the invention is based on the object of developing a wiping cover which can be manufactured easily and cost-effectively.
  • the layers and/or the wipe-active material are adhesively bonded with one another.
  • Fabric-positive joins are particularly easy to manufacture.
  • the process steps for being able to manufacture a fabric-positive joint can additionally be automated so that the manufacture of a wiping cover is simpler and saves more time.
  • a robust joint which, like the conventional wiping covers, can for example be subjected to a multiplicity of washing operations.
  • Fabric-positive joints with and without additive, in this case more preferably adhesives, are conceivable.
  • the fabric-positive joint is preferably carried out through ultrasonic welding.
  • Ultrasonic welding is a joining method which requires no additive. At the same time, process control is possible wherein the cutting to size of the layers and their material-positive joining takes place in one operation, thus saving time. To this end, the layers are punched from web roll material and simultaneously welded together at the edges.
  • the layers can consist of a plastic fabric or of a fabric with a plastic component, for example a mixed plastio-cotton fabric.
  • Plastic fabrics or fabrics with a plastic component are particularly robust and tear-resistant and additionally highly suitable for ultrasonic welding.
  • Conceivable plastics are meltable plastics and, here, more preferably thermoplastics. These are highly suitable for ultrasonic welding.
  • the layers can consist of polyethylene, polypropylene or polyamide or of compounds thereof.
  • plastics are economical and length material of these plastics is particularly suitable for ultrasonic welding.
  • Highly preferable are plastics which are non-hydrolytically degradable. These are for example polyolefins, more preferably polypropylene and aramid fibres.
  • wiping covers of such plastics are less sensitive and a longer utilisation duration is obtained even with frequent washing operations.
  • the utilisation duration of wiping covers, in this case, is mostly determined through the number of washing and bleaching operations.
  • Plastics of polycondensates for example polyethylene, have a tendency to hydrolysis upon frequent contact with suds, as a result of which the stability of the plastics drops and the wiping covers manufactured from it become unusable.
  • Polyolefins and aramid fibres however are not subject to hydrolysis.
  • the layers can entirely consist of plastics which are not subject to hydrolysis or only certain components of the layers, more preferably such which are subject to particular loads. These are more preferably the edges of the layers, joining points, seams and such like. It is further possible through insert elements not subject to hydrolysis to reinforce the particularly loaded components.
  • the wipe-active material is formed of strands.
  • Strands have a high water absorption capability so that wiping covers equipped with strands achieve a high unit surface performance.
  • strands can be provided economically.
  • the strands can be combined into ribbons.
  • Such ribbons can be produced in an automated way as a primary product.
  • the attachment of the strands on the layers is simplified.
  • the ribbons are cut to size, arranged on the layers and adhesively bonded with the latter.
  • the joint can more preferably be performed also through ultrasonic welding. Ribbons are highly suitable for this purpose since the individual strands in this case are already fixed in the ribbons and it is sufficient to fix the ribbons by sections.
  • the attachment can also be performed line-like.
  • the wipe-active material can comprise microfibres. Microfibres are characterized by particularly good dirt absorption capacity.
  • At least one layer can have a recess, wherein the edges of the recess are sealed through ultrasonic welding.
  • such recesses are punched out and subsequently sewn in with a reinforcing ribbon to prevent fraying of the edges.
  • the edges are slightly melted and the fibres are bonded together at the edges so that fraying is not possible. Sewing on of a special reinforcing ribbon is obsolete.
  • Through ultrasonic welding it is also possible to attach other parts such as finger loops or labels to the wiping cover.
  • Figure 1 shows a wiping cover 1 for a cleaning device 2 which in this development is designed as a flat wipe cloth.
  • the cleaning device 2 comprises a wiping plate 12 which is linked to a stem 13.
  • the wiping cover 1 according to the invention is mounted onto the wiping plate 12.
  • FIG 2 shows in detail a wiping cover 1 for the cleaning device 2 shown in Figure 1 .
  • the wiping cover 1 consists of two layers 3, 4. These are arranged relative to each other such that a pocket 5 to accommodate a part of the cleaning device 2, in this case the wiping plate 12, is obtained.
  • the layers 3, 4 are manufactured of a one-part flat plastic fabric design consisting of polyamide.
  • the plastic fabric cut to size is folded along the subsequent front edge 14 and adhesively bonded along the edges 15 through ultrasonic welding such that an opening to accommodate the wiping plate 12 remains in the wiping cover 1.
  • the welding is performed such that an interrupted line 16 is obtained.
  • the weld seam can also be performed continuously or spot-type.
  • a wipe-active material 6 is attached on both layers 3, 4 which consists of strands 7.
  • the strands 7 are joined together in ribbons 8.
  • the ribbons 8 and thus the strands 7 are fabric-positively attached to the layers 3, 4 through ultrasonic welding. Fixing takes place through several spot-welds 17 arranged at a distance relative to one another to obtain the greatest possible flexibility of the wiping cover 1.
  • the wiping cover 1 additionally has a finger loop 17, which is also attached to the wiping cover 1 through ultrasonic welding.
  • Both layers 3, 4 have a recess 9 to achieve greater freedom of movement for the stem 13. These recesses 9 are punched out by means of an ultrasonic tool and simultaneously sealed at their edges 10. Upon sealing, the fibres forming the boundaries of the edges 10 are melted and joined with one another.
