Definitions

  • the invention relates to a wiping plate, comprising a base body to which a first wiping plate wing and a second wiping plate wing are pivotably connected, the wiping plate wings being reversibly fixable in a working position by means of a fixing device, the fixing device comprising a foot pedal, the fixing device being released by actuation of the foot pedal, so that the wiping plate wings can be swiveled from the working position into a wringing position, the foot pedal being arranged on the first wiping plate wing so that it can be swiveled and the foot pedal opening the second wiping plate wing in fixed in the working position.
  • Such wiper plates are, for example, from DE 10 2012 007 525 A1 known.
  • the wiping plate forms part of a wiping device, with the wiping device having a handle next to the wiping plate, which is connected to the wiping plate via a joint.
  • the mop plate is assigned a mop cover which is detachably attached to the mop plate in such a way that it can be brought into contact with the floor to be cleaned. The mop plate presses the mop cover flat onto the floor to be cleaned.
  • the EP 0 663 178 A1 describes a wiping plate which has two wiping plate wings connected to one another in an articulated manner. These can be transferred from a reversibly fixed working position to a wringing position.
  • the characteristic feature here is that the pivot axis of the Fixing device is closer to the pivot axis of the wiper plate wing than the effective locking area of the fixing device.
  • the U.S. 5,926,896 A describes a cleaning device which comprises a plate-shaped carrier as the base body, to which two wiper plate wings are pivotably connected. Also provided is an actuatable fixing device, which is characterized by a locking bolt.
  • the mop plate In order to be able to remove the mop cover, it is known to design the mop plate to be pivotable, with the mop plate having two mop plate wings which are essentially aligned in a horizontal plane in a working position. To remove the mop cover, or for wringing out the mop cover, the mop plate wings can be folded into one Wringing be transferred. This is done by pivoting the wiper plate wings towards each other.
  • the fixing device includes a foot pedal, which is designed in such a way that the fixing of the mop plate wings is released by actuating the foot pedal, so that the mop plate wings can then be pivoted.
  • the operating direction of the foot pedal for releasing the fixation corresponds to the pivoting direction of the wiping plate wings from the working position to the wringing position.
  • the disadvantage here is that an additional component is required and that the transfer of the wiping plate wings from the wringing position to the working position can be more difficult.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a wiping plate which can be produced inexpensively and is easy to operate.
  • the foot pedal has spring means which are designed in such a way that the second wiper plate wing moves when the
  • Foot pedal pivoted relative to the first wiping plate wing.
  • the fixing of the two wiper plate wings is released and the two wiper plate wings pivot at the same time, so that the two wiper plate wings do not immediately lock again when the foot pedal is released.
  • the two wiper plate wings are preferably fixed by means of a snap connection.
  • the foot pedal which is pivotably arranged on the first mop plate wing, has a section that locks with a further section of the second mop plate wing.
  • the foot pedal can have holding elements on the edge assigned to the second wiping plate wing, which in the working position overlap the second wiping plate wing and thereby fix it.
  • one or more projections can be provided which, in the working position, protrude into depressions which are formed in the second wiper plate wing.
  • the foot pedal When the foot pedal is actuated, the foot pedal moves away from the second wiping plate wing, so that the retaining elements are spaced apart from the second wiping plate wing and the second wiping plate wing can be pivoted relative to the foot pedal and thus to the first wiping plate.
  • the foot pedal and the second wiping plate wing are preferably also designed in such a way that the two wiping plates are fixed automatically when the two wiping plate wings are transferred from the wringing position to the working position.
  • a section of the second wiper plate wing automatically engages under the foot pedal, with the foot pedal being pivoted automatically in the process.
  • the foot pedal is preferably articulated to the first wiping plate, the foot pedal having a first free end protruding from the first wiping plate, which is the confirmation section of the foot pedal forms and has a projecting in the direction of the second wiping plate second end, which forms the locking section of the foot pedal.
  • the wiping plate can have an upper side and an underside forming the wiping surface, the undersides of the first wiping plate wing and the second wiping plate wing moving towards one another when pivoting from the working position into the wringing position. In the working position, the undersides of the first mop plate wing and the second mop plate wing are essentially aligned in a horizontal plane.
  • the foot pedal is preferably located on top of the first wiper plate wing. The foot pedal is designed in the form of a rocker arm.
  • At least one projection can be assigned to the foot pedal, which projection is assigned to the locking section, the projection being assigned to the underside of the second wiper plate wing in the working position.
  • two projections can be provided.
  • the foot pedal is actuated, the projections press against the underside of the second wiper plate wing.
  • the second wiper plate wing is pivoted by a small angle relative to the first wiper plate wing. This is sufficient so that the two wiper plate wings can no longer lock automatically after releasing the foot pedal.
  • the foot pedal is actuated, the foot pedal is simultaneously released from the second mop plate wing and the second mop plate wing is raised. If the mop plate is then spaced apart from the floor to be cleaned, the two mop plate wings pivot towards one another and the mop cover can either be wrung out or removed from the mop plate.
  • the projections can be designed as spring elements. According to a further advantageous embodiment, the projections are designed as spring tongues. In this configuration, the projections are designed as tabs with a thin wall thickness. The protrusions exist as well as the Both wiper plate wings preferably made of injection-moldable plastic. With this configuration, the projections can be deformed when the foot pedal is actuated, which is associated with easier operability.
  • the foot pedal can have a holding section which is assigned to the locking section, the holding section being assigned to the upper side of the second mop plate wing in the working position.
  • the second wiper plate wing is preferably designed in such a way that, viewed from above, it encompasses the base body in a U-shape and in doing so partially covers the first wiper plate wing.
  • two protruding elements are formed on the second wiping plate wing, which pivot in the direction of the joint when the wiping plate wing is pivoted from the working position into the wringing position.
  • the retaining section of the foot pedal is assigned to the protruding elements, which in the working position overlaps the elements and thereby locks the wiper plate wings. Both wiper plate wings cannot pivot by themselves in this position. If the foot pedal is actuated, the elements are removed from the holding section, so that the second wiping plate wing is released relative to the foot pedal or to the first wiping plate wing and can pivot.
  • the holding elements and the holding section are preferably chosen so that the holding section automatically snaps onto the elements when pivoting from the wringing position into the working position simply by pressing on the handle and automatically locks in this position. This can be done, for example, by the holding section coming into contact with the elements of the second mop plate wing, with the elements pivoting the foot pedal with the holding section. As soon as the holding section reaches over the elements, the foot pedal pivots back and the wiper plate wings are locked in the working position.
  • the first wiper plate wing, the second wiper plate wing and the foot pedal can be positively locked in the working position.
  • the figures show a wiping plate 1 with a base body 2 to which a first wiping plate wing 3 and a second wiping plate wing 4 are pivotably connected.
  • the base body 2 is associated with a joint 15, here a universal joint, which can be connected to a handle.
  • the wiper plate wings 3 , 4 can be reversibly fixed in a working position 6 by means of a fixing device 5 .
  • the fixing device 5 includes a Foot pedal 7, the fixing device 5 being released by actuating the foot pedal 7, so that the wiping plate wings 3, 4 can be pivoted from the working position 6 into a wringing position 8.
  • the wiping plate 1 and the wiping plate wings 3, 4 have an upper side 11 and an underside 12 forming the wiping surface.
  • the undersides 12 of the first wiping plate wing 3 and the second wiping plate wing 4 move towards one another when the wiping plate wings 3 , 4 are pivoted from the working position 6 into the wringing position 8 .
  • the two undersides 12 of the two wiping plate wings 3, 4 are opposite one another.
  • the foot pedal 7 is arranged pivotably on the first mop plate wing 3 and is designed in such a way that the foot pedal 7 fixes the second mop plate wing 4 in the working position 6 .
  • the foot pedal 7 is also designed in such a way that the second wiping plate wing 4 pivots relative to the first wiping plate wing 3 when the foot pedal 7 is actuated.
  • the foot pedal 7 is connected in an articulated manner to the first wiping plate wing 3 , the foot pedal 7 having a first free end 9 which protrudes from the first wiping plate 1 and forms the actuating section of the foot pedal 7 . Furthermore, the foot pedal 7 has a second free end 10 which projects in the direction of the second mop plate wing 4 and which forms the locking section of the foot pedal 7 .
  • the foot pedal 7 has two holding elements 26 on the face side, which are assigned to the locking section.
  • the two holding elements 26 overlap the second wiper plate wing 4 in the working position 6.
  • On the underside 12 of the second wiper plate wing 4 are at the same time designed as spring tongues projections 13 with elastic bias.
  • the projections 13 are formed from the foot pedal 7 as well.
  • the two holding elements 26 and the projections 13 are in the Working position 6 above and below the second wiper plate wing 4 and clamp it between them. As a result, the wiper plate wings 3, 4 are fixed in the working position 6.
  • the second wiping plate wing 4 has projecting elements 25 which are designed in such a way that the second wiping plate wing 4 together with the elements 25 surrounds the base body 2 in a U-shape.
  • the elements 25 pivot in the direction of the joint 15.
  • the retaining elements 26 rest on the elements 25 on the upper side 11 and thereby lock the mop panel wings 3, 4 in the working position 6.
  • the holding elements 26 are spaced apart from the second mop plate wing 4 or the element 25 and release the second mop plate wing 4 for pivoting.
  • the two projections 13 press against the underside 12 of the second mop plate wing 4 and thereby pivot the second mop plate wing 4 relative to the first mop plate wing 3 by actuating the foot pedal 7.
  • the first wiper plate wing 3 and the second wiper plate wing 4 each have teeth 14 which engage in one another.
  • both wiping plate wings 3, 4 pivot simultaneously relative to the base body 2.
  • both wiping plate wings 3, 4 are located below the base body 2, or in a straight line to the handle, the joint 15 and the base body 2.
  • the first wiper plate wing 3, the second wiper plate wing 4 and the foot pedal 7 are positively locked in the first working position 6.
  • the base body 2, the wiper plate wings 3, 4 and the joint 15 are made of injection-moldable plastic.
  • the bottom 12 of the Wiping plate wings 3, 4 are provided with a structure in the form of ribs 16.
  • the ribs 16 allow a locally high surface pressure of the mop cover on the floor to be cleaned. This improves the cleaning performance.
