- the outer contour of the cleaning elements is substantially round or flattened in sections.
- the disadvantage of this brush is that it can not be used to clean in corners of a room or along the transition from wall to ceiling or behind curtain rails. This is due to the outer contour, which does not allow a targeted intervention in the corner, without the neighboring cleaning elements would have to be deformed massive.
- this is particularly disadvantageous, since the user already can muster little feeling and only a relatively small force already due to the stem.
- the known feather dusters have a bristle holder and bristles which are fastened to the bristle holder.
- substantially U-shaped bristle holders which have a base portion and two legs, each extending from the base portion having.

- the bristles can not penetrate into the respective wall corner area in such a way that the dirt present there can be removed.
- a force directed in the direction of the wall corner to be cleaned must be exerted on the duster.
- the force causes at least a portion of the bristles already touching the wall surfaces to bend over and thus allow penetration of the bristles connected, for example, to the base section into the wall corner area in order to remove the dirt located there.
- Such bending over of the bristles can in extreme cases lead to damage of the bristles and thus to a reduction in the cleaning efficiency of the duster.
- a brush is known, although having a pointed brush surface, but the bristles are provided on a continuous surface, so that this brush is more in the shape of a classic broom. With such a brush can not be worked behind obstacles, such as a curtain rod.
- the new dust brush should be able to remove the dirt present in wall corners without a force and thus without kinking the bristles.
- plastic bristles there would otherwise be the risk that either the bristles would be deformed plastically and thus irreversibly or that the surface to be cleaned would be damaged by excessive pressure.
- Another object of the invention is that the cleaning brush for different wall corners, i. for wall corners that form a different wall surface angle between the two wall surfaces, can be used without a force on the cleaning brush must be exercised.
- the invention has the advantage that in a cleaning process of wall corners do not buckle bristles, whereby the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning brush is not reduced.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine als Reinigungsbürste verwendete Staubbürste nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruch 1.The invention relates to a dust brush used as a cleaning brush according to the preamble of
Eine Reinigungsbürste ist aus der
Reinigungsbürsten in weiteren Ausgestaltungen, wie beispielsweise Staubwedel, sind in einer Vielzahl von Haushalten vorhanden und seit langem bekannt. Ein Beispiel ist in der
Ein Problem, dass sich bei den bekannten Staubwedeln stellt ist, dass ein Reinigungsvorgang von unterschiedlichen Wandecken, bei denen sich zwischen den Wandflächen unterschiedliche Wandflächenwinkel ausbilden, schwierig ist. So kann bei Wandecken, bei denen sich zwischen den beiden Wandflächen ein 135° Wandflächenwinkel, wie beispielsweise bei einer abgehängten Decke in einem Speicher, oder ein 90° Wandflächenwinkel ausbildet, der in diesen Wandecken angesammelte Schmutz nicht einfach entfernt werden. Dies resultiert daher, dass die Reinigungsbürste zum Reinigen der Wandecke in eine Position gebracht wird, in der die an dem Basisabschnitt und/ oder die an einem der beiden Schenkeln vorgesehenen Borsten die jeweiligen die Wandecke begrenzenden Wandflächen berühren. Jedoch können in dieser Position die Borsten nicht in den jeweiligen Wandeckbereich derart eindringen, dass der dort vorhandene Schmutz entfernt werden kann.A problem that arises in the known dust dusters is that a cleaning process of different wall corners, where different wall surface angles form between the wall surfaces, is difficult. Thus, in wall corners in which a 135 ° wall surface angle forms between the two wall surfaces, such as in a suspended ceiling in a storage, or a 90 ° wall surface angle, the dirt accumulated in these wall corners can not be easily removed. This results from placing the cleaning brush for cleaning the wall corner in a position in which the bristles provided on the base section and / or the bristles provided on one of the two legs touch the respective wall surfaces bounding the wall corner. However, in this position, the bristles can not penetrate into the respective wall corner area in such a way that the dirt present there can be removed.
Um den in den Wandecken angesammelten Schmutz zu entfernen, muss auf den Staubwedel eine in Richtung der zu reinigenden Wandecke gerichtete Kraft ausgeübt werden. Die Kraft bewirkt, dass zumindest ein Teil der die Wandflächen bereits berührenden Borsten umknicken und somit ein Eindringen der beispielsweise mit dem Basisabschnitt verbundenen Borsten in den Wandeckbereich ermöglichen, um den sich dort befindlichen Schmutz zu entfernen. Ein derartiges Umknicken der Borsten kann im Extremfall zu einer Beschädigung der Borsten und somit zu einer Verringerung der Reinigungseffektivität des Staubwedels führen.In order to remove the dirt accumulated in the wall corners, a force directed in the direction of the wall corner to be cleaned must be exerted on the duster. The force causes at least a portion of the bristles already touching the wall surfaces to bend over and thus allow penetration of the bristles connected, for example, to the base section into the wall corner area in order to remove the dirt located there. Such bending over of the bristles can in extreme cases lead to damage of the bristles and thus to a reduction in the cleaning efficiency of the duster.
Aus der
Gleiches gilt für Bürsten, die aus der
Es ist die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Staubbürste bereitzustellen, die auch in Ecken und längs von Kanten das Reinigen erleichtert.It is the object of the present invention to provide a dust brush which also facilitates cleaning in corners and along edges.
Insbesondere soll die neue Staubbürste den in Wandecken vorhandenen Schmutz ohne eine Kraftausübung und damit ohne Umknicken der Borsten entfernen können. Gerade bei Kunststoffborsten würde ansonsten die Gefahr bestehen, dass entweder die Borsten plastisch und damit irreversibel verformt würden oder durch zu hohen Druck der zu reinigende Untergrund beschädigt würde.In particular, the new dust brush should be able to remove the dirt present in wall corners without a force and thus without kinking the bristles. Especially in the case of plastic bristles, there would otherwise be the risk that either the bristles would be deformed plastically and thus irreversibly or that the surface to be cleaned would be damaged by excessive pressure.
Eine weitere Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, dass die Reinigungsbürste für unterschiedliche Wandecken, d.h. für Wandecken, die einen unterschiedlichen Wandflächenwinkel zwischen den beiden Wandflächen ausbilden, verwendet werden kann, ohne dass eine Kraft auf die Reinigungsbürste ausgeübt werden muss.Another object of the invention is that the cleaning brush for different wall corners, i. for wall corners that form a different wall surface angle between the two wall surfaces, can be used without a force on the cleaning brush must be exercised.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch eine Reinigungsbürste nach Anspruch 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a cleaning brush according to
Die Erfindung hat den Vorteil, dass bei einem Reinigungsvorgang von Wandecken keine Borsten umknicken, wodurch die Reinigungseffektivität der Reinigungsbürste nicht verringert wird. Zusätzlich können Wandecken, die einen unterschiedlichen Wandflächenwinkel zwischen den beiden Wandflächen aufweisen, durch entsprechendes Positionieren der Reinigungsbürste einfach gereinigt werden, ohne dass die Borsten umknicken. Diese Vorteile ergeben sich insbesondere durch ein Vorsehen eines ersten Winkels α, der sich zwischen einer ersten Teilfläche und einer dritten Teilfläche ausbildet, und eines zweiten Winkels β, der sich zwischen einer zweiten Teilfläche und einer dritten Teilfläche ausbildet, wobei der erste Winkel a einen anderen Wert aufweist als der zweite Winkel β.The invention has the advantage that in a cleaning process of wall corners do not buckle bristles, whereby the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning brush is not reduced. In addition, wall corners, which have a different wall surface angle between the two wall surfaces, can be easily cleaned by appropriate positioning of the cleaning brush, without the bristles kinking. These advantages result in particular by providing a first angle α, which forms between a first partial area and a third partial area, and a second angle β, which forms between a second partial area and a third partial area, the first angle a being different Has value as the second angle β.
Wesentlich für die Erfindung sind die beschriebenen Winkelverhältnisse. Die Winkel können dabei an die Geometrie der zu reinigen Fläche angepasst sein, wobei ein Universalgerät üblicherweise bevorzugt sein wird. Auch können die Winkel gleichsinnig oder gegensinnig verlaufen, der Winkel β also die Krümmung des Winkel α teilweise, vollständig oder sogar überkompensieren,Essential to the invention are the angle ratios described. The angles can be adapted to the geometry of the surface to be cleaned, with a universal device will usually be preferred. The angles can also run in the same direction or in opposite directions, ie the angle β can partially, completely or even overcompensate for the curvature of the angle α.
Die die Bürstfläche definierenden ersten, zweiten und dritten Teilflächen werden durch ein Ende der an einem Borstenhalter der Reinigungsbürste vorgesehen Borsten definiert. Durch die Wahl des Werts des ersten und zweiten Winkels ist es möglich, dass das Reinigungsbürste bei einer Reinigung einer Wandecke jeweils in eine entsprechende Position gebracht werden kann, in der die Borsten in den Wandeckbereich eindringen können, ohne dass ein Umknicken der Borsten bewirkender Kraftaufwand benötigt wird.The first, second and third partial surfaces defining the brushing surface are defined by one end of the bristles provided on a bristle holder of the cleaning brush. By choosing the value of the first and second angle, it is possible that the cleaning brush can be brought in a cleaning of a wall corner in each case in a corresponding position in which the bristles can penetrate into the wall corner area, without a buckling of the bristles causing force required becomes.
Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung besteht darin, dass an einem Schenkel eine Koppelvorrichtung zum Koppeln mit einer Stabvorrichtung vorgesehen ist, wobei die Koppelvorrichtung versetzt zu dem Schenkel angeordnet ist. Durch ein derartiges Anordnen der Koppelvorrichtung kann das Reinigungsbürste zum Entfernen von Schmutz aus schwer zugänglichen Wandecken, wie beispielsweise hinter einem Radiator, benutzt werden.A further advantageous embodiment of the invention is that a coupling device for coupling with a rod device is provided on a leg, wherein the coupling device is arranged offset to the leg. By arranging the coupling device, the cleaning brush can be used to remove dirt from hard-to-reach wall corners, such as behind a radiator.
Ferner besteht eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung darin, dass sich die Borstenlänge der am Borstenhalter angebrachten Borsten voneinander unterscheidet. So kann beispielsweise durch eine längere Ausbildung zumindest eines Teils der Borstenlänge der an einem Borstenhalter angebrachten Borsten sichergestellt werden, dass diese verlängerten Borsten in den betreffenden Wandeckbereich eindringen. Dadurch kann erreicht werden, dass die Reinigungsbürste auch bei Wandecken eingesetzt wird, bei denen der zwischen den Wandflächen ausgebildete Wandflächenwinkel einen kleinen Wert, wie beispielsweise 45°, besitzt. Im Ergebnis kann auch bei kleinen Wandflächenwinkeln zwischen den Wandflächen ein sich im Wandbereich befindlicher Schmutz entfernt werden, ohne das die an dem Borstenhalter angebrachten Borsten umknicken. Folglich erhöht sich die Reinigungseffektivität der Reinigungsbürste.Furthermore, an advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the bristle length of the bristles attached to the bristle holder is different from each other. Thus, for example, by prolonged formation of at least part of the bristle length of the bristles attached to a bristle holder, it can be ensured that these elongated bristles penetrate into the respective wall corner region. It can thereby be achieved that the cleaning brush is also used in wall corners, in which the wall surface angle formed between the wall surfaces has a small value, such as 45 °. As a result, even in the case of small wall surface angles between the wall surfaces, dirt located in the wall region can be removed without the bristles attached to the bristle holder being bent over. Consequently, the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning brush increases.

Eine von der ersten und zweiten Teilfläche T1, T2 verschiedene dritte Teilfläche T3 wird durch die Borsten der dritten Gruppe gebildet.

Der sich zwischen der ersten und dritten Teilfläche T1 und T3 ausgebildete erste Winkel α weist einen Wert im Bereich von 130° bis 140°, vorzugsweise 135°, auf, und der sich zwischen der zweiten und dritten Teilfläche T2 und T3 ausgebildete zweite Winkel β weist einen Wert von 90° bis 100°, vorzugsweise 90° auf.The first angle α formed between the first and third partial surfaces T1 and T3 has a value in the range of 130 ° to 140 °, preferably 135 °, and has the second angle β formed between the second and third partial surfaces T2 and T3 a value of 90 ° to 100 °, preferably 90 °.
Die Borsten 11', 11", 11'" der ersten, zweiten und dritten Gruppe sind an dem Borstenhalter 2 derart angebracht, dass sich bei zumindest zwei Borsten ein sich zwischen dem jeweiligen Borsten und dem Borstenhalter 2 ausgebildeter Borstenhalterwinkel voneinander unterscheidet. Genauer gesagt weist mindestens ein Borstenhalterwinkel einen kleineren Wert als 90° auf. Es sind auch Ausführungsformen vorstellbar, in denen der Borstenhalterwinkel für alle Borsten 1 gleich ist.The
Bei einem Reinigungsvorgang einer Wandecke, die einen 135° Wandflächenwinkel zwischen den Wandflächen aufweist, werden folgende Schritte durchgeführt. Zuerst wird der Staubwedel über das Koppelelement 31 mit einem Stiel gekoppelt. Durch den Stiel kann der Benutzer den Staubwedel einfach benutzen und das Reinigen von schwer zugänglichen Wandecken wird vereinfacht. Danach wird der Staubwedel in eine erste Position gebracht, in der die Borsten 11', 11"', die die erste und dritte Teilfläche T1, T3 bilden, den jeweiligen Wandflächen gegenüberliegen. D.h., dass der Staubwedel bezüglich der Wandflächen derart ausgerichtet wird, dass der erste Schenkel 10 einer Wandfläche und der Verbindungsabschnitt 4 der anderen Wandfläche jeweils gegenüberliegen. Da der erste Winkel a den gleichen Wert aufweist wie der Wandflächenwinkel kann ein Teil der Borsten 11, 21 in den Wandeckbereich eindringen, ohne dass diese Umknicken. Im Anschluss daran wird der Staubwedel entlang der Wandecke bewegt, so dass der sich in der Wandecke bzw. -kante befindenden Schmutz entfernt wird.In a cleaning operation of a wall corner having a 135 ° wall surface angle between the wall surfaces, the following steps are performed. First, the duster is coupled via the
Bei einem Reinigungsvorgang einer Wandecke, die einen 90° Wandflächenwinkel zwischen den Wandflächen aufweist, werden folgende von dem oben beschriebenen Reinigungsvorgang abweichende Schritte durchgeführt. Der Staubwedel 1 wird, nachdem dieser mit einer Stabvorrichtung gekoppelt ist, in eine zweite Position gebracht. In dieser zweiten Position liegen die Borsten 11", 11'", die die zweite und dritte Teilfläche T2, T3 bilden, den jeweiligen Wandflächen gegenüber. D.h., dass der Staubwedel bezüglich der Wandflächen derart ausgerichtet wird, dass der zweite Schenkel 20 einer Wandfläche und der Verbindungsabschnitt 4 der anderen Wandfläche jeweils gegenüberliegen. Anschließend kann der Schmutz aus dem Wandeckbereich entfernt werden, ohne dass die Borsten 1 umknicken.In a cleaning operation of a wall corner, which has a 90 ° wall surface angle between the wall surfaces, the following deviating from the above-described cleaning process steps are performed.
