Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Reinigungsautomaten, insbesondere einen Steckbeckenspüler, mit einem Gehäuse, das einen Reinigungsraum mit einer durch eine Tür fluiddicht verschließbaren Beschickungsöffnung bereitstellt, und mit einer Reinigungsgutaufnahme, die an der zum Reinigungsraum gerichteten Seite der Tür werkzeuglos auswechselbar angeordnet ist, zu welchem Zweck die Tür Aufnahmen aufweist, in die die Reinigungsgutaufnahme mit korrespondierend hierzu ausgebildeten Bügeln zumindest teilweise eingreift.The invention relates to a cleaning machine, in particular a bedpan washer, with a housing which provides a cleaning space with a feed opening closable by a fluid-tight feed opening, and with a Reinigungsgutaufnahme, which is arranged on the cleaning room directed side of the door without tools replaceable, for which purpose the Door has recordings, in which the Reinigungsgutaufnahme with corresponding thereto formed brackets at least partially engages.

Reinigungsautomaten, insbesondere Steckbeckenspüler, sind aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt. Zur Reinigung von Reinigungsgut wird dieses in diese Reinigungsgutaufnahme eingelegt, und durch Schließen der Tür in den Reinigungsraum bewegt. Im Reinigungsraum sind Reinigungsdüsen fest installiert. Das Reinigungsergebnis hängt dabei maßgeblich davon ab, inwieweit das Reinigungsgut zu den Reinigungsdüsen ausgerichtet ist.Cleaning machines, in particular bedpan washers, are known from the prior art. For cleaning of items to be cleaned this is inserted into this cleaning material recording, and moved by closing the door in the cleaning room. In the cleaning room cleaning nozzles are permanently installed. The cleaning result depends significantly on the extent to which the cleaning material is aligned with the cleaning nozzles.

Aufgrund einer hohen Diversifikation der Reinigungsgüter ist es erforderlich, verschiedene Reinigungsgutaufnahmen vorzusehen. Für ein bestimmtes Reinigungsgut ist somit eine jeweilige Reinigungsgutaufnahme vorgesehen, mittels welcher das Reinigungsgut innerhalb des Reinigungsraums optimal ausgerichtet ist.Due to a high diversification of the cleaning goods, it is necessary to provide different Reinigungsgutaufnahmen. For a particular item to be cleaned a respective Reinigungsgutaufnahme is thus provided, by means of which the cleaning material is optimally aligned within the cleaning room.

Im Praxiseinsatz müssen die Reinigungsgutaufnahmen daher oftmals gewechselt werden. Hierfür sind werkzeuggebundene Verbindungstechniken, beispielsweise Verschraubungen bekannt. Es sind jedoch auch werkzeuglose Verbindungstechniken bekannt. Bei diesen kommen beispielsweise form- und kraftschlüssige Rastverbindungen zum Einsatz. Hierzu ist es erforderlich, dass ein Nutzer eine Reinigungsgutaufnahme unter Einsatz beider Hände von der Tür trennt. Der Einsatz beider Hände bedingt, dass das Reinigungsgut abgestellt werden muss. Oftmals wird das Reinigungsgut dazu auf dem Boden abgestellt. Dabei besteht die Gefahr des Umkippens. Neben Nachteilen bezüglich der Handhabung treten somit auch hygienische Probleme durch eine Verunreinigung der Umgebung des Reinigungsautomaten auf.In practice, the Reinigungsgutaufnahmen therefore often have to be changed. For this tool-based connection techniques, such as fittings are known. However, tool-free connection techniques are also known. In these, for example, positive and non-positive locking connections are used. For this it is necessary that a user separates a Reinigungsgutaufnahme using both hands from the door. The use of both hands requires that the items to be cleaned must be turned off. Often the items to be cleaned are parked on the floor. There is a risk of tipping over. In addition to disadvantages with respect to handling, hygiene problems therefore also occur due to contamination of the surroundings of the cleaning machine.

Aus der EP 0 294 516 A1 ist eine Vorrichtung zur Entleerung und Reinigung von Hygienegefäßen bekannt, bei der eine nicht näher bezeichnete oder beschriebene Befestigungshalterung zur Aufnahme der Gefäße dient. Bei einer Geschirrspülmaschine gemäß der DE 40 22 269 A1 ist ein Besteckkorb an der Tür des Geräts gehalten.From the EP 0 294 516 A1 a device for emptying and cleaning of sanitary vessels is known in which an unspecified or described mounting bracket is used to hold the vessels. In a dishwasher according to the DE 40 22 269 A1 a cutlery basket is held to the door of the unit.

Wenngleich sich die aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Reinigungsautomaten im alltäglichen Praxiseinsatz bewährt haben, so besteht Verbesserungsbedarf, insbesondere bezüglich der Handhabung.Although the cleaning machines known from the prior art have proven themselves in everyday practical use, there is a need for improvement, in particular with regard to handling.

Es ist daher die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einen Reinigungsautomaten vorzuschlagen, der eine verbesserte Handhabung aufweist.It is therefore the object of the present invention to propose a cleaning machine, which has improved handling.

Zur Lösung der Aufgabe wird ein gattungsgemäßer Reinigungsautomat vorgeschlagen, wobei erfindungsgemäß einer der Bügel einen Federabschnitt bereitstellt, der beabstandet zu einem benachbarten Griffbereich der Reinigungsgutaufnahme angeordnet ist, wobei der Griffbereich ein Widerlager bildet, und der Federabschnitt relativ zu dem Griffbereich derart elastisch auslenkbar ist, dass eine Verbindung zwischen Bügel und Aufnahme lösbar ist.To solve the problem, a generic cleaning machine is proposed, according to the invention one of the bracket provides a spring portion which is spaced to an adjacent handle portion of the Reinigungsgutaufnahme, wherein the handle portion forms an abutment, and the spring portion is elastically deflectable relative to the handle portion such that a connection between the bracket and recording is solvable.

Der Kern der Erfindung besteht also darin, an der Reinigungsgutaufnahme einerseits einen als Widerlager dienenden Griffbereich vorzusehen, und andererseits einen benachbarten Federabschnitt, welcher mit einer der Aufnahmen der Tür verbindbar ist, elastisch auslenkbar auszubilden. Dies ermöglicht es in vorteilhafter Weise, in den als Widerlager dienenden Griffbereich mit nur einer Hand einzugreifen, und den elastisch auslenkbaren Federabschnitt durch eine Krümmbewegung der Hand auszulenken, so dass eine Verbindung zwischen Bügel und Aufnahme lösbar ist, und somit die Reinigungsgutaufnahme und die Tür mittels nur einer Hand verbind- und trennbar sind. In vorteilhafter Weise ist es einem Nutzer somit möglich, mittels nur einer Hand die Reinigungsaufnahme auszuwechseln, und dabei gleichzeitig in der anderen Hand das Reinigungsgut zu halten. Im Unterschied zu aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Reinigungsautomaten ist es nicht länger notwendig, das Reinigungsgut zum Wechseln der Reinigungsgutaufnahme abzustellen. Es wird vielmehr eine zeitsparende und bedienfreundliche Handhabung ermöglicht.The essence of the invention is therefore to provide on the cleaning material on the one hand a serving as an abutment grip area, and on the other hand form an adjacent spring portion which is connectable to one of the receptacles of the door, elastically deflectable. This makes it possible in an advantageous manner to intervene in the serving as an abutment grip area with only one hand, and deflect the elastically deflectable spring portion by a bending movement of the hand, so that a connection between the bracket and recording is solvable, and thus the Reinigungsgutaufnahme and the door means only one hand can be connected and disconnected. Advantageously, it is thus possible for a user to replace the cleaning receptacle by means of just one hand, while at the same time holding the items to be cleaned in the other hand. In contrast to known from the prior art cleaning machines, it is no longer necessary to turn off the items to be cleaned for changing the Reinigungsgutaufnahme. Rather, a time-saving and user-friendly handling is made possible.

Erfindungsgemäß ist ein Federabschnitt beabstandet zu einem benachbarten Griffbereich der Reinigungsgutaufnahme angeordnet. Dabei kann insbesondere vorgesehen sein, dass Federabschnitt und Griffbereich parallel zueinander angeordnet sind. Federabschnitt und Griffbereich sind dabei insofern beabstandet, als dass der Abstand von einem ausgewachsenen Menschen mit einer Hand gut zu greifen ist. Der Abstand ist dabei jedoch wenigstens derart groß gewählt, so dass sich der Federabschnitt so weit auslenken lässt, wie es für ein Trennen der Verbindung von Bügel und dazu korrespondierender Aufnahme notwendig ist.According to the invention, a spring section is arranged at a distance from an adjacent grip area of the cleaning goods receptacle. In this case, it can be provided, in particular, that spring section and grip area are arranged parallel to one another. Spring section and grip area are spaced so far as that the distance from a full-grown human with one hand is easy to grip. However, the distance is at least chosen so large, so that the spring portion can deflect as far as it is necessary for a separation of the connection of bracket and corresponding recording.

Erfindungsgemäß kann dabei vorgesehen sein, dass der Bügel selbst als Federabschnitt ausgebildet ist. Dabei ist der Bügel um eine Achse seiner Verbindungsstellen mit der Reinigungsgutaufnahme schwenkbar. Der Bügel ist dadurch auf einer gekrümmten Bahn in eine korrespondierende Aufnahme der Tür schwenkbar. Es kann aber auch vorgesehen sein, dass der Bügel mit dem Federabschnitt verbunden ist. Dabei ist der Federabschnitt durch einen Gestängeabschnitt der Reinigungsgutaufnahme gebildet, welcher derart elastisch auslenkbar ist, dass der Bügel auf einer zur Auslenkungsrichtung des Gestängeabschnitts parallelen Bahn in eine Aufnahme der Tür bewegbar ist. Der Vorteil letztgenannter Ausführungsform liegt darin, dass bei einer Einwirkung eines Nutzers auf den Federabschnitt derart große Hebelverhältnisse vorliegen, so dass der Bügel einerseits sehr feinfühlig ausgelenkt werden kann, und andererseits geringere Kräfte notwendig sind als bei kleineren Hebelverhältnissen. Eine Beanspruchung der Muskulatur der Hand eines Nutzers kann somit verringert werden.According to the invention can be provided that the bracket itself is designed as a spring section. In this case, the bracket is pivotable about an axis of its connection points with the Reinigungsgutaufnahme. The bracket is thereby pivotable on a curved path in a corresponding receiving the door. But it can also be provided that the bracket is connected to the spring section. In this case, the spring section is formed by a rod section of the cleaning material receiving, which is elastically deflectable such that the bracket is movable on a path parallel to the deflection of the rod section in a recording of the door. The advantage of the latter embodiment lies in the fact that in the case of an action of a user on the spring portion such high leverage ratios are present, so that the bracket can be very sensitively deflected on the one hand, and on the other hand lower forces are necessary than at smaller lever ratios. A strain on the muscles of a user's hand can thus be reduced.

Erfindungsgemäß ist der Federabschnitt relativ zu dem Griffbereich auslenkbar. Dabei ist der Griffbereich als Widerlager ausgebildet. Dies bedeutet, dass der Griffbereich im Vergleich zum Federabschnitt weniger elastisch ausgebildet ist. Insbesondere kann dies durch eine geeignete Materialwahl gewährleistet sein. Dies kann insbesondere aber auch dadurch gewährleistet sein, dass der Griffbereich durch entsprechende Querstreben an mehreren Stellen mit der Reinigungsgutaufnahme verbunden ist, der Federabschnitt hingegen durch einen Abschnitt der Reinigungsgutaufnahme gebildet ist, der im Wesentlichen freiliegt und nur in seinen Endbereichen mit der Reinigungsgutaufnahme verbunden ist. Bei einer mittigen Krafteinwirkung auf den Federabschnitt liegen somit vergleichsweise große Hebelverhältnisse vor, so dass der Federabschnitt im Bereich seiner Endabschnitte um die dortigen Verbindungen mit der Reinigungsgutaufnahme elastisch ausgelenkt wird. In vorteilhafter Weise lässt sich also ein Abschnitt der Reinigungsgutaufnahme festlegen, der im Vergleich zum übrigen Abschnitt der Reinigungsgutaufnahme vergleichsweise federelastisch auslenkbar ist. Erfindungsgemäß wird hierdurch die besonders einfache Handhabung der Reinigungsgutaufnahme mittels nur eines Handgriffs realisiert.According to the invention, the spring section can be deflected relative to the grip region. The grip area is designed as an abutment. This means that the grip area is less elastic compared to the spring section. In particular, this can be ensured by a suitable choice of material. However, this can be ensured in particular by the fact that the grip area is connected by corresponding cross struts at several points with the Reinigungsgutaufnahme, the spring portion, however, is formed by a portion of the Reinigungsgutaufnahme, which is substantially exposed and is connected only in its end with the Reinigungsgutaufnahme. In a central force on the spring portion thus comparatively large leverage ratios are present, so that the spring portion is elastically deflected in the region of its end portions to the local connections with the Reinigungsgutaufnahme. In an advantageous manner, therefore, it is possible to define a section of the cleaning goods receptacle which is relatively resiliently deflectable compared to the remaining section of the cleaning goods receptacle. According to the invention, the particularly simple handling of the item to be cleaned is thereby realized by means of only one handgrip.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung sind die Aufnahmen als einseitig offene Gehäusekörper ausgebildet. In vorteilhafter Weise stellen die Aufnahmen somit dauerhaft eine Öffnung bereit, welche im bestimmungsgemäßen Betrieb nicht durch Manipulation geöffnet oder geschlossen werden muss.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the receptacles are designed as a housing body open on one side. In an advantageous manner, the receptacles thus permanently provide an opening which does not have to be opened or closed by manipulation during normal operation.

Es ist also insbesondere die Kombination aus den Bügeln der Reinigungsgutaufnahme und den einseitig offenen Gehäusekörpern, welche die einfache Handhabung der Erfindung unterstützt.It is thus in particular the combination of the ironing of the cleaning material receptacle and the housing bodies which are open on one side and which supports the simple handling of the invention.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist die Öffnung eines Gehäusekörpers in Teilbereichen durch eine U-förmige Aufnahme gebildet. Die Reinigungsgutaufnahme mit den Bügeln besteht dabei aus einem im Querschnitt runden Gestänge. Die U-förmigen Öffnungen der Gehäusekörper stellen somit im Endbereich der U-förmigen Aufnahme eine zur runden Form der Bügel korrespondierende Aufnahme bereit, und im übrigen Teil des U-förmigen Abschnitts eine Führung für die Bügel bereit. In vorteilhafter Weise lassen sich derartige Aufnahmen einfach und kostengünstig fertigen, beispielsweise durch Stanzen und Biegen von Blechabschnitten.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the opening of a housing body is formed in partial areas by a U-shaped receptacle. The Reinigungsgutaufnahme with the brackets consists of a cross-section round rod. The U-shaped openings of the housing body thus provide in the end region of the U-shaped receptacle a receptacle corresponding to the round shape of the bracket, and in the remaining part of the U-shaped section a guide for the strap ready. Advantageously, such recordings can be manufactured simply and inexpensively, for example by punching and bending sheet metal sections.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist die Tür reinigungsraumseitig drei Aufnahmen auf. Hierdurch wird im endmontierten Zustand eine sichere, statisch bestimmte Lagerung der Reinigungsgutaufnahme in der Tür erreicht. In vorteilhafter Weise unterstützt die Anordnung der drei Aufnahmen die Montage der Reinigungsgutaufnahme. Dabei können an der Ober- oder Unterseite der Tür zwei parallele Aufnahmen vorgesehen sein. Die Reinigungsgutaufnahme wird dann mit den entsprechenden Bügeln in diese beiden Aufnahmen eingelegt. Die Reinigungsgutaufnahme ist dann insoweit festgelegt, als dass sie sich nur noch um eine durch die beiden Aufnahmen gebildete Drehachse drehen lässt. Durch Zusammendrücken von Griffbereich und Federabschnitt lässt sich die Reinigungsgutaufnahme mit einem dritten Bügel an die Tür heranführen. Durch Lösen der Federspannung teilentspannt sich der dritte Bügel bis er unter einer Restfederspannung in der dritten Aufnahme anliegt. Die Reinigungsgutaufnahme ist nunmehr unter Federspannung fest mit der Tür verbunden.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the door on the cleaning room side on three shots. As a result, a secure, statically determined storage of Reinigungsgutaufnahme in the door is achieved in the final assembled state. In an advantageous manner, the arrangement of the three receptacles supports the assembly of the item to be cleaned. It can be provided on the top or bottom of the door two parallel shots. The Reinigungsgutaufnahme is then inserted with the appropriate brackets in these two shots. The Reinigungsgutaufnahme is then set so far that they can only rotate about an axis formed by the two shots rotation. By squeezing the handle area and spring section, the cleaning material holder can be brought to the door with a third bracket. By releasing the spring tension, the third bracket partially unfolds until it rests under a residual spring tension in the third receptacle. The Reinigungsgutaufnahme is now firmly connected under spring tension with the door.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist zwischen Griffbereich und Federabschnitt ein mit dem Griffbereich verbundener, paralleler Abschnitt angeordnet. Dieser Abschnitt ist fest mit der Reinigungsgutaufnahme verbunden und/oder in seiner Ausrichtung zum Griffbereich festgelegt. In vorteilhafter Weise stellt dieser Abschnitt ein Auflager für die Handinnenfläche eines Nutzers bereit. Ein Handgriff zur Manipulation der Reinigungsgutaufnahme erfolgt dann derart, dass der Daumen um den Federabschnitt gekrümmt gelegt ist, die Handinnenfläche auf dem Abschnitt ruht, und der Griffbereich mit den vier Fingern umgriffen ist. In vorteilhafter Weise stellt der Abschnitt ein Gegenlager für die Handinnenfläche bereit, so dass ein Verkippen der Reinigungsgutaufnahme in der Hand eines Nutzers vermieden wird. In vorteilhafter Weise ist eine besonders einfache und sichere Handhabung der Reinigungsgutaufnahme gewährleistet.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, a handle connected to the handle portion, parallel portion is arranged between the handle portion and spring portion. This section is firmly connected to the Reinigungsgutaufnahme and / or fixed in its orientation to the handle area. Advantageously, this section provides a support for the palm of a user. A handle for manipulating the Reinigungsgutaufnahme then takes place such that the thumb is placed curved around the spring portion, the palm resting on the section, and the grip area is encompassed with the four fingers. Advantageously, the section provides an abutment for the palm, so that tilting of the cleaning material in the hand of a user is avoided. Advantageously, a particularly simple and safe handling of Reinigungsgutaufnahme is guaranteed.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist die Reinigungsgutaufnahme aus einem Gestänge gebildet. Das Gestänge kann dabei insbesondere aus Metall, beispielsweise einem Draht, Kunststoff oder dergleichen gebildet sein. Insbesondere kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass das Gestänge aus einem mit einem Kunststoff beschichteten Metall gebildet ist. In vorteilhafter Weise ermöglicht ein Gestänge eine stabile und tragfähige Konstruktion einer Reinigungsgutaufnahme, bei gleichzeitig geringem Gewicht. Im Übrigen ermöglicht es ein Gestänge, dass das Reinigungsgut im bestimmungsgemäßen Betrieb des Reinigungsautomaten von allen Seiten mit Reinigungswasser beaufschlagt werden kann.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the Reinigungsgutaufnahme is formed from a rod. The linkage may in particular be formed from metal, for example a wire, plastic or the like. In particular, it can also be provided that the linkage is formed from a metal coated with a plastic. Advantageously, a linkage allows a stable and sustainable construction of a Reinigungsgutaufnahme, at the same time low weight. Incidentally, a linkage makes it possible for the items to be cleaned to be treated with cleaning water from all sides during normal operation of the cleaning machine.

These U-shaped openings of the receptacles 4 and 5 are opposite to the U-shaped opening of the receptacle 3.

Ein Teil des Gestänges der Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 ist als Federabschnitt 9 ausgebildet. Der Federabschnitt 9 ist einerseits mit einem Bügel 6 verbunden, welcher in die türseitige Aufnahme 3 eingreift. Andererseits ist der Federabschnitt 9 an beiden Enden 12 und 13 mit dem übrigen Gestänge der Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 verbunden. Die Reinigungsgutaufnahme weist ferner einen Griffbereich 10 auf. Dieser Griffbereich 10 bildet ein Widerlager zum Federabschnitt 9. Der Griffbereich 10 ist dabei fest in das Gestänge der Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 integriert und durch verschiedene Gestängeabschnitte in mehreren Raumrichtungen festgelegt. Insofern ist der Federabschnitt elastisch auslenkbar gegenüber dem Griffbereich 10 ausgebildet. Dies bedeutet, dass bei einem Zusammendrücken von Griffbereich 10 und Federabschnitt 9 der Federabschnitt 9 elastisch auslenkt. Dies ist darin begründet, dass der Federabschnitt 9 in einem mittigen Bereich in Richtung des Griffbereichs 10 frei gelagert ist, und sich somit ein großer Hebelarm ergibt, mit dem der Federabschnitt um die jeweils endseitigen Verbindungen mit der Reinigungsgutaufnahme elastisch auslenkbar ist.A part of the linkage of the cleaning material receptacle 2 is designed as a spring section 9. The spring portion 9 is on the one hand connected to a bracket 6, which engages in the door-side receptacle 3. On the other hand, the spring portion 9 is connected at both ends 12 and 13 with the rest of the linkage 2 Reinigungsgutaufnahme. The Reinigungsgutaufnahme further comprises a handle portion 10. This handle portion 10 forms an abutment to the spring portion 9. The handle portion 10 is firmly integrated into the rod of the Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 and determined by different linkage sections in several directions in space. In this respect, the spring portion is elastically deflectable relative to the handle portion 10 is formed. This means that when the gripping area 10 and the spring section 9 are compressed, the spring section 9 elastically deflects. This is due to the fact that the spring portion 9 is freely supported in a central region in the direction of the handle portion 10, and thus results in a large lever arm, with which the spring portion is elastically deflectable about the respective end-side connections with the Reinigungsgutaufnahme.

Die Montage der Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 geht dabei wie folgt von statten:

  • Die Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 wird von einem Nutzer mit einer Hand gegriffen. Dabei legen sich die Finger der Hand um den Griffbereich 10, wobei der Daumen um den Federabschnitt 9 gelegt wird. In der Folge lässt sich die Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 mit nur einer Hand manipulieren. Zur Montage an der Tür wird nun die Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 mit den bodenseitigen Bügeln 7 und 8 in die entsprechenden bodenseitigen Aufnahmen 4 und 5 der Tür eingeführt. Die Aufnahmen 4 und 5 der Tür 1 bilden nun eine gemeinsame Drehachse, um die die Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 verdrehbar ist. Durch Krümmen der Hand lässt sich der Federabschnitt 9 relativ zum Griffbereich 10 elastisch auslenken. Die Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 wird nun mit dem einzelnen Bügel 6 an die Tür herangedreht. Durch Teilentspannen des Federabschnitts 9 lenkt der Federabschnitt 9 wieder in Richtung seiner ursprünglichen Position zurück. Dabei gleitet der Bügel 6 in die oberseitige Aufnahme 3 der Tür hinein. Es kommt zu einem Anliegen des Bügels 6 in der Aufnahme 3, wodurch die Reinigungsgutaufnahme 3 unter Federspannung mit der Tür verbunden ist. Da die gesamte Manipulation der Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 mittels nur einer Hand erfolgen kann, kann ein Nutzer während der gesamten Montage beispielsweise ein Steckbecken in der anderen Hand halten.
The installation of the cleaning material holder 2 is carried out as follows:
  • The Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 is gripped by a user with one hand. The fingers of the hand lie around the grip area 10, the thumb being placed around the spring section 9. As a result, the Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 can be with only one Hand manipulate. For mounting on the door now the Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 is introduced with the bottom brackets 7 and 8 in the corresponding bottom-side seats 4 and 5 of the door. The receptacles 4 and 5 of the door 1 now form a common axis of rotation about which the Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 is rotatable. By curving the hand, the spring portion 9 can deflect elastically relative to the handle portion 10. The Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 is now turned down with the single bracket 6 to the door. By partial relaxation of the spring portion 9, the spring portion 9 redirects back toward its original position. In this case, the bracket 6 slides into the top-side receptacle 3 of the door. It comes to a concern of the bracket 6 in the receptacle 3, whereby the Reinigungsgutaufnahme 3 is connected under spring tension with the door. Since the entire manipulation of the Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 can be done by means of one hand, a user during the entire assembly, for example, hold a bedpan in the other hand.

Eine alternative Ausführungsform einer Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 ist in Figur 1b gezeigt. Hierbei ist zusätzlich zum Griffbereich 10 ein mit dem Griffbereich verbundener, paralleler Abschnitt 11 vorgesehen. Die Position von Griffbereich 10 zu parallelem Abschnitt 11 bleibt dabei während der Handhabung der Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 konstant. Es lässt sich vielmehr der Federabschnitt 9 relativ gegenüber dem Griffbereich 10 und dem parallelen Abschnitt 11 elastisch auslenken. Bei einer Manipulation der Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 legt ein Benutzer seine Hand auf den parallelen Abschnitt 11 ab. Die Finger der Hand werden dabei um den Griffbereich 10 gekrümmt. Der Daumen umgreift den Federabschnitt 9. Durch den parallelen Abschnitt 11 ist somit ein Auflager für die Handinnenfläche eines Nutzers bereitgestellt, mit welchem eine weiterhin besserte Handhabung und Manipulation der Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 gewährleistet ist.An alternative embodiment of a Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 is in FIG. 1b shown. In this case, in addition to the grip region 10, a parallel section 11 connected to the grip region is provided. The position of handle region 10 to parallel section 11 remains constant during the handling of the cleaning product holder 2. Rather, the spring section 9 can be elastically deflected relative to the grip region 10 and the parallel section 11. In a manipulation of Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 a user puts his hand on the parallel portion 11 from. The fingers of the hand are thereby curved around the grip area 10. The thumb engages around the spring portion 9. By the parallel portion 11 thus a support for the palm of a user is provided, with which a further improved handling and manipulation of Reinigungsgutaufnahme 2 is ensured.
