Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cleaning tool used for cleaning a floor or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As shown in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 6-62959 and Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 6-62960, a cleaning tool such as a mop in which a cleaning sheet made of non-woven fabric is wound around a box-shaped cleaning tool body is known. . This type of cleaning tool generally has a holding portion for holding the cleaning sheet to the cleaning tool body. As the holding portion, there is known a clamp member for clamping the cleaning sheet to the cleaning tool body, in addition to those described in the above publication. Have been.

[0003]

When the cleaning sheet is replaced, the clamp of the clamp member is released. However, the conventional clamp member may be lost because it is separate from the cleaning tool body. Further, the structure of the conventional clamp member is relatively complicated, and the cost must be increased. Further, the above-described clamp member has a problem in the ease of mounting the cleaning sheet and the reliability of holding the mounting.

In the cleaning tool according to the first aspect, the base plate and the clamp plate are integrally formed to prevent the clamp plate from being lost, and the structure of the clamp plate is simplified to reduce the cost, and furthermore, to fit the cleaning tool. By the clamp using the fitting between the mating cylinder and the fitting column, the ease of mounting and the reliability of mounting and holding are achieved.

[0005] The cleaning tool according to the second aspect is the first aspect.
In addition to the problem of the cleaning tool described above, the present invention is intended to facilitate cleaning by providing a spherical seat on a base plate and supporting a handle so as to be rotatable in front, rear, left and right directions.

[0006]

As a first means, a rectangular base 3 is formed by raising the center of the base plate 1 and clamped from both front and rear edges of the base via thin hinges 6. A plate 7 is protruded, a fitting cylinder 4 is protruded from one of the lower surface of the clamp plate and an upper surface of the base plate, and a fitting column 8 is protruded from the other, from a nonwoven fabric attached to the lower surface of the base plate 1. Mounting holes 14 formed at the front and rear ends of the cleaning sheet 13
The fitting sheet 8 is fitted into the fitting cylinder 4 so that the cleaning sheet 13
The front and rear ends were clamped between the clamp plate 7 and the base plate 1.

As a second means, the first means is provided, and a spherical seat 11 for rotatably supporting the spherical base end of the handle 12 in the front-rear and left-right directions is provided on the upper surface of the center of the base. A pair of right and left fitting cylinders 4 are erected from the upper surface of the base plate 1, a pair of right and left fitting columns 8 are projected from the lower surface of the clamp plate 7, and a handle plate 7a is further erected from the upper surface of the clamp plate 7.

[0008]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In FIGS. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes a base plate, and a side wall 2 is erected from both left and right end portions, and a rectangular base portion 3 is provided between the left and right side walls by raising a central portion. To form In addition, a pair of right and left fitting cylinders 4 protrude from the upper surface of the base plate 1, and fixed columns 5 are erected between the pair of fitting cylinders 4.

A pair of right and left fitting columns are provided which protrude from both front and rear edges on the upper surface side of the base portion 3 via thin hinges 6 and which can be fitted into the fitting cylinder 4 from the lower surfaces of the respective clamp plates. 8 is protruded. Further, a pair of left and right half-moon-shaped handle plates 7a are erected from the upper surfaces of the front end of the front clamp plate 7 and the rear end of the rear clamp plate 7, respectively.

Further, as shown in claim 2, the column 9 is erected from the upper surface of the center of the base 3, and a pair of elastic pieces 10 are erected from the upper end of the column.
Formed. Then, the spherical base end of the handle 12 is supported on the spherical seat so as to be rotatable forward, backward, left and right.

Reference numeral 13 denotes a cleaning sheet made of a nonwoven fabric, which has three mounting holes 14 at each of the front and rear ends. The mounting holes can be fitted to respective outer surfaces of the fitting cylinder 4 and the fixed column 5. Reference numeral 15 denotes a short tube with a flange fitted into each of the mounting holes 14 from the back surface of the cleaning sheet 13, and reference numeral 16 denotes a washer fitted to the outer surface of the front end portion of the short tube with a flange 15 slightly protruding from the surface of the cleaning sheet 13.

Next, the operation of the present embodiment will be described.
In order to attach the cleaning sheet 13 to the base plate 1, the central portion of the cleaning sheet 13 on which the short tube 15 with a brim and the washer 16 are attached is attached to the lower surface of the base plate 1, and the front and rear of the cleaning sheet 13 Each of both side ends is turned upward and inward, and the short tube with a flange 15 fitted in the mounting hole 14 is fitted to each outer surface of the fitting tube 4 and the fixed column 5. Next, the clamp plate 7 is tilted to fit the fitting column 8 into the fitting cylinder 4. FIG. 3 shows this state.

At the time of cleaning, the base plate 1 placed on the floor or the like may be moved by holding the handle 12, and the cleaning sheet 13 can be replaced by holding the grip plate 7 a and holding the clamp plate 7.
, And the cleaning sheet 13 may be removed from the fitting cylinder 4 and the fixed column 5.

[0014]

According to the cleaning tool of the first aspect, since the base plate and the clamp plate are integrated, there is no risk of the clamp plate being lost. Further, the components of the clamping means of the cleaning sheet are only three simple components of the clamp plate, the fitting column, and the fitting cylinder, so that the cost can be reduced. further,
The attachment and detachment of the cleaning sheet can be performed only by turning the clamp plate, so that attachment and detachment are easy. Further, since the cleaning sheet is clamped by fitting the fitting cylinder to the fitting column, the cleaning sheet is securely held.

In the cleaning tool according to the second aspect of the present invention, the spherical base is provided on the base plate to support the handle so as to be rotatable in the front-rear and left-right directions, thereby facilitating cleaning.
