Description

200918010 IX. DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a cleaning article, and more particularly to a floor cleaning tool that can be used as a mop and as a broom. 5 [Prior Art] Brooms and mops are the most commonly used floor cleaning tools for consumers. The broom can effectively collect and remove solid debris, hair and a lot of dust; while the mop can effectively remove fine dust and undertake wet cleaning tasks. The functions of the two are complementary, and the general consumers will use them together, and the functions are difficult to replace each other. Therefore, the average consumer has to use two tools alternately according to the cleaning task in daily cleaning, which is very troublesome. At the same time, this also requires higher purchase costs and more storage space. A multi-purpose floor cleaning tool is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,937, 747, the mop of which is attached to the mop head by a one-way section, and the mop head can be cleaned with a sheet-like cleaning material to realize the function of the mop. In addition, a spring mechanism is provided in the middle of the mop head, and the spring mechanism can be used as a clip. When the clip grips the accessory with the bristles, the mop can be used as a broom, thereby realizing the functions of the mop and the broom. However, in the cleaning tool of US593747ia 20, the bristles are used as separate attachments, and are temporarily fixed to the mop head by clips as needed. After the broom operation is completed, the bristles are also removed, so that the function of switching the mop and the broom is very troublesome. In the British Patent Publication No. GB22559〇〇f, a mop attachment for a broom is disclosed, the function of which is realized by a prefabricated special cleaning attachment 200918010. Wrap the attachment on the outside of the broom for cleaning. In this solution, the switching of the mop and the broom function is also cumbersome, and the processing of the attachment is complicated, and the manufacturing cost is high. In the US Patent Publication No. US20030101528, a function switching of the clearing eight is also realized by a cleaning attachment. After wrapping the cleaning attachment onto the broom head, the cleaning sheet can be attached to the bottom of the cleaning attachment to achieve the function of the mop. This solution also has a cleaning attachment that is separate from the main body. The operation is cumbersome and the size of the mop head is too large, which may cause inconvenience in actual use. 1〇U.S. Patent No. 389,637 discloses a water-absorbing broom cover. The patented technical solution is similar to that of GB2255900. The mop function is realized by means of cleaning the material on the broom head in the morning, except that the cleaning material is clean. The form is simpler. [Explanation] Therefore, in order to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art, the present invention has a ground cleaning tool which has a function of a mop and a broom, and is capable of achieving simple switching between the two functions.

When the pressing portion 61 is pushed to the foremost end of the slit, the pressing portion 61 is released, The trigger button 61 then rebounds and causes the concave and convex portion 63 and the concave and convex portion 16 to enter the engaged state again, thereby locking the sweeping member 30' to prevent the bristles 3 1 from retracting the mop plate 丨 0. At this time, the entire cleaning tool 1 can be 15 as a broom. 1 to 6 show the state of the mop of the floor cleaning tool 1 of this embodiment. To change the cleaning tool 1 from the state of the broom to the state of the mop, the user only needs to slightly pull the lever 20' to connect the lever 20 The cylindrical outer wall of the tube 22 is disengaged from the locking of the elastic snap tab 50 on the mop plate 10, and the operating rod 20 can freely rotate around the mop 20 plate 10. Then, the user presses the pressing portion 61 slightly with force, the uneven portion 16 and the concave and convex portions The engagement between the portions 63 is released, Thereby, the user is allowed to drive the bristles 3 i of the sweeping element 3 沿着 to be pushed rearward from the front side of the mop plate 10 by pushing the pressing portion 61 rearward along the slit 14 13 200918010 When the pressing portion 61 is pushed to the last end of the slit 14 When the pressing portion 61 is released, the trigger button 61 is rebounded and the concave-convex portion 63 and the uneven portion 16 are again brought into the engaged state, thereby locking the sweeping member 30, preventing the bristles 31 from extending out of the mop plate 10. After that, the cleaning cloth is cleaned. 15 is wrapped on the mop plate 1 by the buckle 11. 5 The entire cleaning tool 1 can be used as a mop. Referring to Figures 12 to 18, the floor cleaning tool 2 according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described. For the sake of simplicity, the same parts as the first embodiment are omitted. The figure shows a triangular mop panel 1 , a joystick 20 fitted to the mop panel, and a sweep 10 element 30 movably extending and contracting in the mop panel 1 . The pivoting mechanism in this embodiment includes: a pair of support seats 40, the pair of support seats 40 are fixed to the middle portion of the upper surface of the mop plate, for example, by bolts, and each of the support seats 40 is provided with a shaft hole; And the second rotating member 43'the second rotating member 43 includes a pumping portion and a substantially semicircular portion integrally extending from the intermediate portion of the shaft portion to the upper side, and both ends of the shaft portion are respectively inserted into each of the brackets 15 In the shaft hole, a semicircular portion is used to connect with the lower end of the joystick 20. In this embodiment, the control member is a sector gear 45 integrally formed at a lower portion of the second rotating member 43 of the pivoting mechanism. The sector of the sector gear 45 is perpendicular to the axis of the shaft portion of the second rotating member 43. The base 32 includes a rack portion 35 that is integrally formed to extend from the rear of the base 32, or may be formed directly on the upper P w of the base 32. Engagement with the sector gear 45 to convert the rotation of the sector portion into a linear movement of the beam portion 35, thereby pushing the sweeping of the yoke and then moving. Thus, as the pivoting mechanism pivots relative to the mop plate 10, the rack portion 35 is moved in the first or second direction 14 200918010 (front-rear direction) by the drive of the sector gear 45. The sector gear has an arc of about 90 degrees, and the sector gear 45 is arranged to start the movement of the rack portion 35 when the lever 20 is released from the U-shaped tab 50. In the embodiment, the bisector of the sector of the sector gear 45 is at an angle of 45 degrees to the axis of the joystick 20. Thus, when the lever 5 20 is released from the 11-shaped snap tab 50 (i.e., from the twist position parallel to the mop panel 1), the sector gear 45 starts to drive the rack portion 35 to move. The operating lever 2 continues to rotate, and the sector gear 45 continues to drive the rack portion 35 to move, thereby driving the bristles 3 1 of the sweeping member 30 to contract from the front side of the mop plate 1 to the mop plate. When the manipulation cup 20 is rotated to be perpendicular to the mop plate 1〇, the sector gear is rotated 9 degrees and 10 is disengaged from the rack portion 35, so that the movement of the rack portion 35 cannot be continued, and the bristles 31 are most contracted to the mop plate. 1 〇 so that no bristles are exposed from the mop board 10. At this time, even if the joystick 2 is rotated within an angle range of 9 〇 to 18 ,, the rack portion 35 does not move, thereby facilitating the user to freely operate the cleaning tool in the state of the mop. Since the sector gear and the rack portion 15 are 35-fitted to move the sweeping member back and forth, the structure of the trigger button 60 and the slit 14 in the first embodiment can be omitted. 12 to 16 show the state of the sweep of the floor cleaning tool 2 according to this embodiment. If the cleaning tool 2 is to be converted from the mop state to the broom state, the user only needs to rotate the operating lever in the direction of the U-shaped tab 50 to a position parallel to the 2-inch mop board 10, and the connecting tube 22 of the operating lever 20 The cylindrical outer wall is locked by the U-shaped snap tabs 50. In this process, the sector gear 45 connected to the lower end of the operating lever 20 is also rotated correspondingly, and the bristles 31 driving the sweeping member 3 through the linkage mechanism of the sector gear 45 and the rack portion 35 extend from the side of the mop plate 忉When it comes out, the entire cleaning tool 2 can be used as a broom. 15 200918010 Figures 1 7 to 18 show the state of the mop of the floor cleaning tool 2 according to this embodiment. If the cleaning tool is to be converted from the broom (four) to the mop state, the user only needs to pull the operating lever 2 稍 slightly to disengage the cylindrical outer wall of the connecting rod 22 of the operating lever 2 from the elastic snap on the mop plate 1 The 5 〇 lock is 5 疋. In the process in which the operating lever 2 is rotated from the state parallel to the mop board 10 to be approximately perpendicular to the mop board 10, the sector gear 45 at the lower end of the connecting tube 50 of the operating lever 20 drives the rack portion 35 to move rearward until the sweeping member 3 is moved. The bristles 31 are hidden inside the mop panel 1〇. Thereafter, the cleaning cloth 15 is joined to the mop board 10 by means of a buckle u, so that the entire cleaning tool 2 can be used as a mop. Referring to Figures 19 to 27, a floor cleaning tool 3 according to a third embodiment of the present invention. For the sake of simplicity, the same parts as the second embodiment are omitted. In this embodiment, the control member is a sector gear 45 integrally formed at a lower portion of the second rotating member 43 of the drag mechanism. The proximal end of the connecting tube 22 is connected to the pivoting mechanism 15, and the distal end of the connecting tube 22 is inserted into the extension tube 23, thereby extending the operating lever 2''. Further, the fixing member comprises a resilient and rigid cable 51 made of a stainless steel material, the proximal end of which is fixed on the mop plate 1 与 opposite the first side (front side) and away from the pivoting mechanism. distance. For example, the cable 51 may be attached to the mop plate 1 by means of a hook or may be connected to the rotating shaft of the upper surface of the mop plate 10. The distal end of the cable 51 is selectively fixed to one of the two portions of the operating lever at a distance from the mop plate 1 to the proximal end and the distal end. When the distal end of the cable 51 is fixed to the distal end portion of the operating lever 2, the operating lever 20 is parallel to the mop panel 1 and the cable 51 is pulled. Thus, due to the pulling force of the cable 51, the operating lever 2〇 cannot be released from the 16 200918010 filter parallel to the mop plate 1〇, thereby fixing the operating lever 2〇 in parallel with the mop plate 1〇, so that the cleaning tool 3 can be used as the cleaning tool 3 Broom. Further, the extension pipe 23 of the operating lever 20 is provided with a lateral groove 52 and a longitudinal groove 55 communicating perpendicularly with the lateral groove 52 in the longitudinal direction. The outer 5 portions of the extension tube 23 are slidably sleeved with a sleeve 53, the sleeve 53 including a first hook 54 slidable in the transverse groove 52 and the longitudinal groove 55, and the cable 51 passes the second hook inside the extension tube 56 is connected to the sleeve 53. In one embodiment, the length of the longitudinal slot 55 is substantially equal to the distance the sleeve 53 is moved, and the cable 51 passes through a through hole 57 (shown in Figures 23 and 25) located a distance below the longitudinal slot 55. The officer 22 and the extension tube 23 are connected. Thus, the longitudinal groove 55, the transverse groove 52 and the through hole 57 form a substantially "j" shape. With the control element having the cable 5丨 according to the present embodiment, it is not necessary for the user to directly contact the mop plate 1 , and only the sleeve 53 and the extension tube 23 are pulled up or along the longitudinal groove 55 on the extension tube 23 Pushing down the sleeve brother, the mop plate 10 can be rotated about the pivoting mechanism within a certain range of angles. Meanwhile, since the rack and pinion linkage mechanism is provided between the sector gear 45 of the pivoting mechanism and the rack portion 35 of the sweeping member 3, the sector gear 45 drives the rack portion during the movement of the sleeve 2 along the extension tube 23. 35 moves back and forth along the plane of the mop plate (7) so that the bristles 31 extend or retract to the mop plate 1〇. Further, since the operating lever 2 can be releasably fixed in parallel with the mop plate 10, the cleaning tool 3 can be used as a broom, so that the engaging tabs 5 in the first and second embodiments can be omitted. 23 to 26 show the broom shape of the floor cleaning tool 3 according to this embodiment. The state of the cleaning tool 3 is converted from the mop state to the broom shape 17 200918010 state, the user is distally along the longitudinal groove 55 Pulling the sleeve 53 over the extension rod 23 continues to pull the sleeve 53 to a position where the second hook % reaches the transverse groove 52. The sleeve 53 is then rotated to advance the second hook 56 of the connecting cable 51 into the slot 52. Thus, the sleeve 53 is locked on the extension tube 23. Here, the mop plate 10 is rotated about the pivoting mechanism by the pulling of the cable 51. Meanwhile, due to the linkage mechanism between the sector gear 45 and the rack portion 35, the sector gear 45 drives the rack portion 35 to move forward along the plane of the mop plate 1〇, thereby causing the bristles 31 to protrude from the front side of the mop plate 10, At this time, since the cable 51 is pulled, and the operating lever 20 and the mop board 1 are locked in a parallel state, the entire tool can be used as a broom. 19 to 22 show the state of the mop of the floor cleaning tool 3 according to this embodiment. If the cleaning tool 3 is to be converted from the broom state to the mop state, the user pulls the sleeve 53 slightly rearwardly to rotate it laterally. Thus, the second hook 56 is disengaged from the transverse groove 52 and enters the longitudinal slot 55. The sleeve 15 tube 53 is then slid along the extension tube 23 to rotate the mop plate 10 about the pivoting mechanism relative to the lever 20. At the same time, the rack portion 35 moves rearward and the bristles 31 are gradually hidden. When the joystick 20 is substantially perpendicular to the mop plate 1 刷, the bristles 31 are also substantially completely hidden. Thereafter, the cleaning cloth 5 is joined to the mop board 10 by the buckle j i so that the entire cleaning tool 3 can be used as a mop. Referring to Figures 28 to 31, a floor cleaning tool 4 according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. For the sake of simplicity, the same parts as the first embodiment are omitted.
