Definitions

  • the present patent application for industrial invention relates to a cleaning apparatus for domestic use.
  • Such water-absorbing elements can consist in pieces of cloth that are moved with a stick in order to clean the floor, or in straps of fabric that are fixed to a stick, being commonly known as "mops”.
  • the water-absorbing element is generally rinsed in a bucket that is filled with water and possibly with a surface-active detergent.
  • the bucket with the water is provided with a support that is suitable for supporting and wringing the water-absorbing element.
  • a support consists in a basket provided with slots in order to let the water out.
  • US4174977 discloses an apparatus and a method for rinsing and disinfecting a mop used to clean floors and other surfaces.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the drawbacks of the prior art by disclosing a cleaning apparatus for domestic use that is practical, versatile, easy to use, inexpensive and simple to make.
  • the cleaning apparatus for domestic use according to the invention comprises:
  • Such a system guarantees the perfect cleaning of the water-absorbing element and reduces the user's fatigue caused by the frequent changes of the water in the bucket.
  • a cleaning apparatus according to the invention is disclosed, which is generally indicated with reference numeral (1).
  • the cleaning apparatus (1) comprises a bucket (2) intended to contain water.
  • a support (3) is mounted in an upper portion of the bucket (2) to support a water absorbing element (4).
  • the support (3) is a basket provided with slots (30) in order to let the water out and wring the water absorbing element (4).
  • the water absorbing element (4) can consist in strips made of absorbing material that are attached to a stick (40).
  • the water absorbing element (4) may also be a cloth, a sponge or the like.
  • a tank (5) is supported by supporting means (7) fixed to the bucket (2).
  • the tank (5) is intended to contain water.
  • the tank (5) can have a volume comprised between 5 and 20 liters.
  • the tank (5) has a water dispensing nozzle (50) that is in communication with the interior of the tank and is disposed above said support (3) intended to support the water absorbing element, in such a way to rinse the water absorbing element (4) in a rapid and easy way.
  • the nozzle (50) is disposed in a lower portion of the tank, frontally protruding from the tank.
  • Actuation means (6) can be actuated manually to open/close the nozzle (50) of the tank.
  • the actuation means (6) comprise a rod (60) provided with a lower end in communication with a shutter of a valve of the nozzle (50).
  • a handle (61) is disposed at the upper end of the rod (60) in order to be manually actuated by the user without bending. The actuation of the handle (61) determines a rotation of the rod (60), thus opening or closing the nozzle (50).
  • the support means (7) of the tank comprise rods (70, 71) fixed to a back portion of the bucket and protruding in upper position from the bucket in such a way as to support the tank above the bucket.
  • the rods of the support means (7) comprise a telescopic system comprising two lower rods (70) fixed to the bucket (2) and two upper rods (71) that telescopically slide inside the lower rods (70) in such a way as to adjust the height of the support means.
  • the upper rods (71) are connected in upper position by a handle (76) intended to be hold by the user in order to transport the cleaning apparatus (1).
  • Swiveling wheels are advantageously disposed under the bottom of the bucket (2) to transport the cleaning apparatus (1).
  • a strap (73) or bracket is used to fix the tank (5) to the rods of the support means (7).
  • the strap (73) surrounds the tank (5).
  • the strap (73) also supports a bracket (74) to support the rod (60) of the actuation means and a hook (75) to fasten the stick (40) of the water absorbing element (4).
  • Fig. 2 shows a second embodiment of the cleaning apparatus according to the invention, which is indicated with reference numeral (100).
  • the apparatus (100) comprises a lid (20) disposed on the bucket (2).
  • the support (3) is mounted in the lid (20).
  • the support (3) is a basket with concave shape, which comprises a plurality of strips (31) that converge into a bottom wall (32), being mutually spaced in order to form slots (30) to let the water out.
  • the strips (31) are elastically mounted in such a way that the strips are bent when the water absorbing element (4) is pressed on the strips (31), compressing the water absorbing element in such a way as to wring the water from the water absorbing element.
  • a wall (21) of the bucket (2) extends above the lid (20) behind said lid (20).
  • the support means (7) of the tank comprise a base (22) that projects from the wall (21) of the bucket above the lid (20) of the bucket.
  • the support (5) is mounted on the base (22).
  • the tank (5) comprises pins (53) that are engaged into slots (23) of the base (22) of the bucket, for example in bayonet or click-in coupling mode.
  • the base (22) has a circular shape and the tank (5) has a cylindrical shape.
  • Brackets (74) are fixed to the tank (5) to support the rod (60) of the actuation means of the nozzle (50).
  • a hook (75) is fixed to the tank to support the rod (40) of the water absorbing element.
  • a handle (25) shaped as an overturned “U” is fixed to the wall (21) of the bucket to transport the cleaning apparatus (100).
  • a hook (75') is fixed to the handle (25) to support the rod (40) of the water absorbing element.
  • Handles (56) are obtained in the tank (5) in order to lift the tank.
  • the bucket (2) has a hole on the base (22) to drain the water contained in the bucket (2).
  • a broom-cleaning device (8) is mounted in a back portion of the bucket (2), protruding outwards.
  • the broom-cleaning device comprises a box (80) wherein a wheel (81) with a plurality of radial blades or brushes is revolvingly mounted.
  • the wheel (81) is connected to a shaft (82) connected to a crank (83) that can be manually actuated by the user in such a way as to rotate the wheel (81).
  • a plate (84) is mounted above the wheel (81).
  • the plate (84) has an opening (85) in correspondence of the wheel (81).
  • the bristles of the broom are disposed on the opening (85) of the plate and the wheel (81) is rotated, the blades or brushes of the wheel will pass through the bristles of the broom, removing the dirt, such as hair, fluff and the like, that is accumulated on the bristles of the broom.
