Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cleaning device for floors, consisting of a base body, on the front side of which is to be brought into contact with a surface to be cleaned, a cleaning surface element can be detachably fastened and dosed with a cleaning liquid, comprising:
  • At least one liquid distributor area which is arranged on a front side of the base body and is formed from at least one nozzle recess, for distributing and temporarily storing the cleaning liquid and which is connected directly or via at least one distribution channel in the base body to the cleaning liquid storage container, and
  • At least one cleaning fluid pump for conveying cleaning fluid from the cleaning fluid reservoir into the cleaning surface element.
  • a cleaning device with the essential features of the preamble of claim 1 is known from the applicant's PCT / WO01 / 01841 AI. This cleaning device has proven itself for use on window panes. With the help of the integrated hand pump, cleaning liquid dosed onto an exchangeable plaster surface element without the cleaning device having to be removed. However, it has been shown that wiping large floor areas with the handheld device is tedious. The radius of action is limited here by the length of the handle; Extensions are not possible because the lever for the cleaning fluid pump can only be operated directly on the handle.
  • a cleaning device with a handle and a cleaning head which has an exit plate on its front side coming into contact with the surface to be cleaned.
  • the exit plate forms a wall of the cleaning head.
  • a plaster surface element in the form of a sponge or several bristle elements is attached directly to the perforated plate.
  • the cleaning fluid is metered from an interior of the cleaning head to the sponge or bristles through the openings in the perforated plate.
  • the dosage cannot be controlled, so that the cleaning liquid can drip off the sponge, especially when the cleaning device is pressed against the surface to be cleaned.
  • Another disadvantage is that the cleaning surface elements can only be replaced together with the perforated plate and, if appropriate, with a peripheral insert frame.
  • DE 94 05 755.9 shows a device for cleaning window panes, which also has a handle with a cleaning head.
  • the cleaning head has a water reservoir and a single outlet opening through which the cleaning liquid can be pumped into a cleaning sponge. It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a cleaning device for floors of the type mentioned at the outset which, with a simple and inexpensive construction, enables large floor areas to be cleaned with a cleaning surface element which can be continuously rewetted during cleaning.
  • the cleaning fluid reservoir has a recessed and / or molded pump chamber which is open to the outside and that the cleaning fluid pump is formed by an elastically deformable cover element which seals the pump chamber and has a guide flange and a flexible pump plate.
  • cover element which is anyway required for closing the cleaning fluid reservoir, also fulfills the function of a cleaning fluid pump, which is therefore of a very simple construction and is both inexpensive and unaffected by faults.
  • the cover element can easily be inserted into the compatible pump chamber by the user and is correspondingly easy to replace in the event of wear or damage.
  • a force on the pump plate which is particularly easy to exert with the foot, deforms the pump plate, which consists, for example, of an elastomer, as a result of which the pressure in the liquid-filled chamber lying under the pump plate increases and cleaning liquid from the at least one nozzle recess Storage container is pressed onto the plaster surface element.
  • the liquid is either introduced into a distribution channel or directly into a liquid distribution richly injected, where it is absorbed by the plaster surface element.
  • the detergent storage container is formed by the hollow base body itself, which has a pump chamber which is embedded and / or molded into its rear side and which is open to the outside. It is particularly advantageous if the base body is a blow-molded plastic hollow body that is simple and inexpensive to manufacture. The relatively large opening of the pump chamber when the cover element is removed also has a funnel effect and enables the basic body to be filled easily. Thus, only two elements, namely the base body and the cover element, fulfill all the functions which are formed by a large number of different assemblies according to the prior art.
  • a further preferred embodiment provides that the cleaning liquid storage container is formed by a hollow additional tank which can be placed on the base body and which has a pump chamber which is recessed and / or molded into the back and which is open to the outside.
  • the guide flange of the cover element can continue in a closed storage chamber provided with at least one nozzle recess.
  • Cleaning agents in particular in the form of a concentrate, can be kept in stock in this storage chamber Pressure on the pump plate is metered into the main reservoir formed by the base body or additional tank and filled, for example, with pure water.
  • the entire cover element with storage chamber is preferably formed from an elastomeric material in the manner of a bellows.
  • An advantageous variant also provides that several pump chambers with corresponding cover elements are provided with and without a storage chamber.
  • the pump chambers are connected to one another and / or to the liquid distributor area in a liquid-conducting manner.
  • a first cover element is provided for the pure pump function and a second cover element with which cleaning agent concentrate can be injected into the storage container if required.

  • a cleaning surface element 20 can be placed around the front side 11 of the base body 10 and fixed by pressing into the slots 22.1 of the holding elements 21, ..., 24.
  • Velcro hook plates can also be used as holding elements.
  • FIG. 2a shows the base body 10 with a view of the front side 11.
  • the front side 11 has depressions 11.3, 11.4, in which Velcro hook tapes can be countersunk.
  • a sponge element (not shown) can be attached to this are brought, which is arranged between base body 10 and plaster surface element 20. It can serve as an intermediate store for liquid and / or compensate for unevenness in the floor due to its elasticity and thus press the cleaning surface element 20 lying on the entire surface against the surface to be cleaned.

  • Receiving chamber recesses 18.1,..., 18.4 are each formed at the corners, and are each covered with a holding element 21,..., 24 in the cleaning device 100, as shown in FIG. 1.
  • the receiving chamber recesses 18.1, ..., 18.4 allow the segments of the holding elements 21, ..., 24 formed by the cuts 22.1 to be deformed downward and also the tip of the textile clamped in the holding elements 21, ..., 24 Record cleaning surface element 20.
