Definitions
- the invention relates to a tool with at least one cleaning approach to free joints between wall and / or floor tiles of not yet hardened adhesive or mortar before filling them with grout.
- Grout must be filled in so that each l'laLLe or tile is clutched on its four sides.
- the filled joints should not only connect the tiles or slabs, but the filled joints should also absorb stresses due to changes in the shape of the substrate, the mortar or the tile or slab covering.
- the mortar or grout must be placed so deep in the joints that it corresponds to the thickness of the tiles.
- the joint - mortar consists of three sides that: the share of the joint in the composite to Neck and mortar and on the two oppositely lying ⁇ tiled or PlattenkanLen. This side adhesion is particularly important for facade cladding.
- the joints In order to ensure proper jointing of the tiles, the joints must be cleared of adhesive or mortar residues at least up to the tile or plate thickness before the joints are grouted.
- Gß 2 261 901 ⁇ is a method for removing potting material between a wall or a floor, which is covered with tiles or the like. is occupied, which is substantially vibrated at high frequency in a transverse direction, wherein the sheet-like tool is moved along the joint to the joint capacity to break and the filling ⁇ material to remove become known, is used in which as the tool is a thin slice.
- This tool works as a chisel and therefore has a lower tip.
- the m adoptedeiförmige cleaning approach projects from a straight edge out, but does not come with the tiles next to the joint into contact, so as not interfere due to the high frequency vibration to zer ⁇ .
- a joint cleaning device with several cleaning approaches is also known (GB 2 167 005 A), but this cleaning device is a machine-operated device with rotating cleaning approaches.
- the invention has for its object to provide a tool with which laymen in particular can quickly and easily clean the joints of uncured adhesive or mortar. It has been found that this object can be achieved in a simple manner by the tool being in the form of a plate-shaped handle with at least one straight edge which can be placed on the tiles and from which the cleaning attachment fitting into the joint protrudes.
- the straight edge resting on the tiles ensures that the handle can always be pulled over the tiles in the correct position, the cleaning approach penetrating into the joint and filling the cross-section of the joint.
- the handle piece has a rectangular shape, from whose straight edges cleaning projections protrude along opposite sides.
- the cleaning approaches of both exemplary embodiments can have the same size. Then the tool can be turned over when one of the cleaning approaches becomes worn and the cleaning approach that has not yet been used can be used for further work.
- the cleaning approaches can also have different sizes, so that one can use a tool to clean differently wide and deep joints.
- the same cleaning approaches are advantageous if many joints need to be cleaned.
- the tool does not need to be thrown away, but a further cleaning approach is simply used.
- a handle with cleaning approaches of different sizes is always suitable when wall coverings or floor coverings made of different tiles or plates with differently dimensioned joints have to be processed.
- another embodiment of he find a handle piece which only has a straight edge on ⁇ .
- the cleaning approach protrudes from one end of this straight edge. This makes it easy to clean joints that are arranged, for example, in the transition from a floor surface to a wall surface.
- the part of the handle piece opposite the straight edge can have any shape, for example it can be arcuate.
- the handle can have any shape that is suitable, the associated
- the use of a tool according to the invention is made easier by the fact that the handle or the cleaning attachments are provided with numerical information by which the joint width for which the cleaning attachment is intended is specified.
- the tools according to the invention can either be made of plastic or metal.
- the tool is designed as a frame. This saves a lot of material - without affecting the strength in the manufacture of plastic.
- the tools can also be designed according to the preceding exemplary embodiments. Above all, the tool can also have a cleaning attachment according to FIG. 2.
- the claims 13 to 17 show a further embodiment of a tool in which an arbitrarily shaped handle for Use can come.
- this handle is formed as Vorratsbeffle 'lter be stored in which replaceable cleaning approaches 22nd.
- Fig. 5 cross sections through the embodiment
- Fig. 7 is a side view of the embodiment of FIG. 6, p ig- 8 is a cross section along the line VIII / VIII and
- FIG. 1 is designed as a handle 10 of rectangular shape.
- the handle 10 has two mutually opposite edges 7, from which cleaning lugs 9 protrude.
- Handle 10 and cleaning lugs 9 form a handle 6, which is shown in a side view in FIG. 1b and in a top view in FIG. 1c.
- Fig. 2 shows a tool la, which is designed as a handle 11 with an essentially arcuate (13) shape.
- the handle 6 can be particularly well between forefinger and thumb arrange without joints, even after prolonged cleaning at the two fingers pain ⁇ apparitions occur.
- tool la What is special about tool la is the cleaning attachment 9, which is arranged at the end 8 of the straight edge. With this tool la lets PT / EP 7/51
- the handle 12 has six straight edges 7, from which differently dimensioned cleaning lugs 9 protrude.
- the lower cleaning attachment has a width of 7 mm. It fits into the joint 2 between two tiles 4.
- the tiles or plates 4 are applied by means of adhesive or mortar surface 3 on a floor or a wall ⁇ .
- 5 3 shows that the height of the cleaning attachment 9 corresponds to the thickness of the tiles.
- the cleaning approach cleans the joint 2 both with respect to the mutually opposite edges of the tiles 3 as well as with respect to the adhesive 3.
- the numbers 14 can be arranged on the handles 10, 11 or 12, but under certain circumstances also on the cleaning approaches 9.
- the cleaning approaches 9 have different widths 15, which correspond to the normal joint widths.
- the height 16 of the cleaning lugs 9 also depends essentially on the tile or plate thickness.
- the numbers 14, which characterize the width 15 of the cleaning approaches, are arranged on both sides of the handle pieces 10, 11, 12.
- Fig. 2 is indicated by a dashed line that the handle ⁇ piece 11 can also be provided with a further straight edge 7 and a further cleaning approach 9, which is suitable for cleaning further joints.
- additional cleaning approaches 9 for cleaning joints in the transition area can be arranged on one end region of the long edges of the handle 10 according to FIG. 1.
- 4 and 5 show a further embodiment of the invention.
- the handle part is designed as a frame 17, which consists of opposing longitudinal sides 18 and transverse sides 19. The opposite longitudinal sides 18 can be connected to one another by a crosspiece 19a for reasons of strength.
- the cross section 20 of the long sides 18 and the transverse sides 19 is U-shaped.
- the shape of the frame 17 creates window-like openings through which the material saving is essentially achieved.
- the U-shaped cross section 20 ensures that the longitudinal sides 18 and the transverse sides 19 have sufficient stability.
- the tools according to FIGS. 1 and 2 and 3 can also be designed as a frame. This allows a lot of material to be saved.
- FIG. 6, 7 and 8 show a further exemplary embodiment of a tool 21 with at least one cleaning attachment 22 for freeing joints 2 between wall and / or floor tiles from adhesive or mortar which has not yet cured before they are filled with joint compound.
- the handle part of this tool 21 can have any shape and have an extension 28 into which the replaceable cleaning extension 22 can be inserted.
- the handle is designed as a storage container 23 for exchangeable cleaning approaches 22.
- the grip piece has a circular-cylindrical cross section 26.
- the storage container is closed by a removable cover 25.
- the exchangeable cleaning approaches protrude from a straight edge 24.
- a replaceable cleaning attachment 22 and its connection to the straight edge 24 is shown in FIG. 9.
- the cleaning projection 9 protrudes from the front of the straight edge 24, from the rear of which a fitting 27 with a polygonal, for example hexagonal cross-section protrudes, which fits into a correspondingly shaped receptacle 29.
- the fitting 27 is longer than the cleaning approach 9 to ensure a secure fit in the receptacle 28.
- the fit between the fitting 27 and the receptacle 29 is such that a used, replaceable cleaning attachment 22 can easily be pulled out of the receptacle 29.
