Definitions
- the invention relates to a brush system with a holding body held by a handle on which a cleaning element can be fixed in a first position of use.
- Such brush systems are known. These are used for a variety of cleaning purposes. In particular, these brush systems find their use in the cleaning of smooth surfaces, preferably in glass. But there are also other cleaning tasks, in particular from the household with the brush system to solve.
- the cleaning brush has a handle and a releasably attached cleaning attachment.
- the handle and the cleaning attachment to each other via a seal substantially unverurgingbar but releasably clamped.
- the cleaning attachment consists of two nested cups, namely an inner cup and an outer cup.
- the inner cup is connected to the outer cup on its side facing away from the handle end latching via a barb.
- Around the outer cup is a cleaning cloth, which lies against the front of the outer cup and on its lateral surface over the entire surface and approximately flat and is introduced around the free edge of the outer surface of the outer cup around in a space between the outer cup and inner cup with its lobes and is clamped there.
- the main disadvantage of this cleaning brush is the fact that the cleaning cloth always rests with a single processing surface on the front side of the outer cup.
- the cleaning brush only the single machining surface of the cleaning cloth resting on the front side comes into contact with the surface to be cleaned.
- the cleaning cloth is closed only on the single processing surface, so that the cleaning cloth must be disposed of in total wear of the single processing surface, wherein the clamped in the gap cloths are still unworn.
- the present invention has for its object to provide an improved brush system available, in which the cleaning element can be completely used up.
- this is achieved in that the cleaning element can be transferred from the first use position into at least one second use position.
- the cleaning element after the wear of a
- Used position transferred. This transfer from a use position with a worn processing surface in each case following
- the cleaning element can be transferred in a simple manner from the first position of use and in the subsequent use positions, the cleaning element is expediently tubular or tubular and surrounds the holding body.
- the cleaning element is rotated in a simple manner around the holding body, with the cleaning element always surrounding the holding body.
- the cleaning element rests under elastic bias on the holding body and by means of the handle on this is clamped. This ensures that the cleaning element is held undamaged on the holding body in the respective use position.
- the cleaning element has a slightly smaller circumference than the holding body, whereby the secure and unverurgingbare stop on the holding body is further improved.
- cleaning element for the brush system according to the invention is in a special way a cleaning plush, since it is particularly absorbent and can store cleaning liquid, the cleaning plush is also highly durable and has a particularly high cleaning power.
- the holding body has lateral recesses, in which engages the elastically deformable handle frictionally engaged.
- the holding body consists of a stiff, elastic foam, whereby advantageously a targeted deflection of a working surface of the holding body can be generated.
- the holding body may advantageously also be provided with working surfaces which, viewed in cross-section, have different geometrical configurations.
- the holding body may have a processing surface with two straight processing edges, which is rectangular in cross-section exhibit.
- the tapered machining edge engages particularly well in the hard to reach corners.
- a holding body with a cross-sectionally round processing surface and a round processing edge is advantageously suitable for cleaning joints, wherein the holding body can perform an alternating rolling movement when pulling through the joint.
- the holding body can perform an alternating rolling movement when pulling through the joint.
- not only the bottom of the joint is cleaned, but also the limiting joint walls.
- the handle has a seen in cross-section ⁇ -shaped configuration that can create in a particularly ergonomic manner to the palm of the hand.
- the handle has two diametrically opposite to its central axis, oppositely oriented pressure ridges, which extend perpendicular to the holding body.
- the fingers of the user can be supported on these pressure bars, so that a targeted force can always be introduced into the holding body.
- the brush system according to the invention is ideal for a thorough vehicle cleaning.
- the brush system is ideal both for cleaning the outside of the windscreen of the vehicle for removing heavy soiling such as insects or fly mosquitoes, etc. as well as for cleaning the vehicle interior such.
- B. window corners or bevels or the interior can be used efficiently.
- the brush system according to the invention is enormously versatile.
- small windows and window frames can be cleaned efficiently in the home. It is also conceivable, however, the use of refrigerator interior cleaning.
- the brush system lies flat on even rounded surfaces.
- 3 and 4 different geometric configurations of a holding body in cross section.
- Fig. 5 the handle in cross section, to illustrate a bending
- FIG. 1 shows a brush system 1 according to the invention with a holding body 3 held by a handle 2.
- a cleaning element 4 is fixed in a first use position 6 on the holding body 3.
- the cleaning element 4 is a cleaning plush, wherein the cleaning element 4 is tubular or tubular and surrounds the holding body 3.
- the cleaning element 4 is shown hatched in FIG.
- the holding body 3 has a processing surface 7, seen in cross-section, with two straight processing edges 8, 9. Further advantageous embodiments of Processing surface are shown in Figures 3 and 4.
- the holding body 3 has a cross-sectionally triangular processing surface 11 with a tapering processing edge 12, wherein the holding body 3 according to FIG. 4 has a round processing surface 13 with a round processing edge 14.
- the machining surfaces 11 and 13 also have, in an advantageous development, initially straight machining edges 9 which merge into the machining edges 12 and 14. Advantages of this embodiment will be explained in more detail below.
- the handle 2 is seen in cross-section ⁇ -shaped with an insertion opening 15 ( Figure 2). On its inner side 16 clamping lugs 17 are arranged. The clamping lugs 17 engage frictionally in unillustrated lateral recesses in the holding body 3 and clamp the cleaning element 4 between the handle 2 and the holding body 3.
- the handle 2 has two to its central axis Y-Y diametrically opposite pressure ridges 18.
- the pressure webs 18 each have an extension 21 at their respective free ends 19.
- the extensions 21 extend parallel to the holding body 3 and are oriented in the direction of the machining edge 8, 12 or 14. In this case, it is particularly advantageous if the processing surfaces 11 and 13, as mentioned above, initially have the straight processing edge 9.
- the extensions 21 also engage positively-lockingly on the holding body 3, so that the cleaning element 4 is clamped between the extensions 21 of the handle 2 and the holding body 3.
- the holding body 3 has a to the respective processing surface 7,11, 13 subsequent neck 22, on which a to the inside 16 of the handle second complementary designed head 23 connects.
- the head 23 may have a slightly smaller circumference than the inside of the handle 2.
- the lateral recesses are arranged.
- the cleaning element 4 is first pulled around the holding body 3. To introduce the holding body 3 with this surrounding cleaning element 4 in the handle 2 it is bent, so that the holding body 3 can be inserted with its head 23 through the insertion opening 15. An exemplary bend of the grab handle 2 is shown in FIG. After the head 23 is inserted into the handle 2, the handle 2 returns to its original position. By means of the clamping lugs 17 of the handle 2 engages in the lateral recesses of the holding body 3 kraftformschlüssig a. Thus, the cleaning element 4 is clamped between the holding body 3 and the handle 2. For transferring the cleaning element 4 from the first use position 6 in the second or subsequent use position of the handle 2 is only bent so that the cleaning element 4 is free to rotate, since the kraftformschlüssige connection is repealed.
