Beschreibung Technisches GebietDescription Technical area

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Reinigungsgerät, umfassend eine Wischplatte die zumindest eine Wischfläche aufweist, wobei die Wischfläche in zumindest zwei Funktionsflächen mit unterschiedlichen Reinigungsfunktionen unterteilt ist.The invention relates to a cleaning device, comprising a wiper plate which has at least one wiping surface, wherein the wiping surface is subdivided into at least two functional surfaces with different cleaning functions.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Derartige Wischgeräte sind aus der EP 1308119 A2 bekannt. Die Wischfläche des dort beschriebenen Reinigungsgerätes ist in verschiedene Funktionsflächen unterteilt, wobei die Funktionsflächen Mittel aufweisen, die ohne gegenseitige Beeinflussung zum Einsatz gebracht werden können. Dabei kann eine Funktionsfläche Strukturen in Form von Rippen aufweisen, die im Bereich der Handhabe angeordnet sind. Die Strukturen können durch Ausübung von Druck auf die Handhabe betätigt werden. Durch diese Strukturen, die durch einen Wischbezug auf die zu reinigende Fläche wirken, verbessert sich die Reinigungsleistung gegenüber fest anhaftenden Verschmutzungen.Such wipers are known from EP 1308119 A2. The wiping surface of the cleaning device described there is subdivided into different functional surfaces, wherein the functional surfaces have means which can be used without mutual interference. In this case, a functional surface structures in the form of ribs, which are arranged in the region of the handle. The structures can be actuated by applying pressure to the handle. These structures, which act by a mop cover on the surface to be cleaned, improves the cleaning performance against firmly adhering dirt.

Darstellung der ErfindungPresentation of the invention

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Reinigungsgerät bereitzustellen, welches bei geringem Kraftaufwand eine verbesserte Reinigungswirkung bei fest anhaftenden Verschmutzungen aufweist. Diese Aufgabe wird mit den Merkmalen von Anspruch 1 gelöst. Auf vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen nehmen die Unteransprüche Bezug.The invention has for its object to provide a cleaning device, which has an improved cleaning effect with firmly adhering dirt with little effort. This object is achieved with the features of claim 1. In advantageous embodiments, the dependent claims relate.

Zur Lösung der Aufgabe weist eine erste Funktionsfläche motorisch bewegbare Reinigungsmittel auf. Dabei sind die Reinigungsmittel beweglich in der ersten Funktionsfläche angeordnet und werden durch einen Motor in Bewegung versetzt. Durch die Bewegung verbessert sich die Reinigungswirkung, insbesondere gegenüber fest anhaftenden Verschmutzungen, bei gleichzeitig vermindertem Kraftaufwand. Dabei können die Reinigungsmittel in der gleichen Ebene angeordnet sein oder über die Ebene der zweiten Funktionsfläche hinausstehen. In einer Ausgestaltung können die Reinigungsmittel kontinuierlich angetrieben sein und in einer anderen Ausgestaltung auf Anforderung durch den Nutzer. Dabei können die Reinigungsmittel beispielsweise durch einen eine vorgegebene Schwelle überschreitenden Druck auf die an der Wischplatte gelenkig befestigte Handhabe in Bewegung versetzt werden. Der kontinuierliche Antrieb ist kostengünstig herstellbar und der bedarfsweise Antrieb zeichnet sich durch eine dem Nutzerverhalten angepasste Betriebsweise aus.To achieve the object, a first functional surface has motor-driven cleaning agents. The cleaning agents are arranged movably in the first functional surface and are set in motion by a motor. The movement improves the cleaning effect, especially against firmly adhering dirt, while reducing the amount of force. In this case, the cleaning agents can be arranged in the same plane or protrude beyond the plane of the second functional surface. In one embodiment, the cleaning agent may be driven continuously and in another embodiment, upon request by the user. In this case, the cleaning agents, for example, by a pressure exceeding a predetermined threshold pressure on the hinged to the mop plate handle be set in motion. The continuous drive can be produced inexpensively and the demand-driven drive is characterized by a mode of operation adapted to the user behavior.

Die Reinigungsmittel können durch Borsten gebildet sein. Borsten weisen eine hohe abrasive Wirkung gegenüber Verschmutzungen auf. Die Borsten können an den freien Enden glatt oder abgerundet ausgeführt sein. Die abrasive Wirkung kann durch flexibel ausgestaltete Borsten nochmals verbessert werden. Borsten weisen eine geringe Kontaktfläche auf und verfügen über einen großen Zwischenraum, so dass die erste Funktionsfläche insbesondere bei klebrigen Verschmutzungen eine gute Reinigungswirkung aufweist. Die Borsten können aus Kunststoffspritzguss oder Gummi bestehen. Derartige Borsten sind sehr flexibel und bewirken gemeinsam mit dem motorischen Antrieb eine verbesserte Reinigungsleistung. Auf die Wischplatte kann ein Wischbezug aufspannbar sein. Der Wischbezug ist austauschbar an dem Reinigungsgerät angeordnet und kann gesondert gereinigt werden, so dass über eine lange Gebrauchsdauer eine gute Reinigungswirkung erzielt wird. Mit dem Wischbezug oder einem fest an der Wischplatte befestigten Tuch oder Schwamm erfolgt eine Nassreinigung des zu reinigenden Bodens. Die durch die erste Funktionsfläche gelösten Verschmutzungen werden dabei durch den Wischbezug oder durch den Schwamm aufgenommen.The cleaning agents may be formed by bristles. Bristles have a high abrasive effect against soiling. The bristles can be made smooth or rounded at the free ends. The abrasive effect can be further improved by flexible bristles. Bristles have a small contact surface and have a large gap, so that the first functional surface has a good cleaning effect, especially with sticky contaminants. The bristles can be made of plastic injection molding or rubber. Such bristles are very flexible and cause together with the motor drive improved cleaning performance. On the mop plate, a mop cover can be clamped. The mop cover is interchangeable with the cleaning device and can be cleaned separately, so that over a long period of use, a good cleaning effect is achieved. With the mop cover or a cloth or sponge firmly attached to the mop plate, there is a wet cleaning of the soil to be cleaned. The contaminants dissolved by the first functional surface are absorbed by the mop cover or by the sponge.

Die Befestigung des Wischbezugs kann mittels kraft- und/oder formschlüssiger Befestigungsmittel erfolgen. Diese sind an der ersten und/oder zweiten Funktionsfläche sowie an dem Wischbezug befestigbar. Als Befestigungsmittel kommt dabei vorteilhafterweise ein Klettverschluss bestehend aus Haken- und Flauschfläche in Betracht. Dabei ist der Wischbezug einfach und sicher an der Wischplatte befestigbar.The attachment of the mop cover can be done by means of non-positive and / or positive fastening means. These can be fastened to the first and / or second functional surface and to the mop cover. As a fastener comes advantageously a hook and loop fastener consisting of hook and Velcro surface into consideration. The mop cover is easy and secure to the mop plate fastened.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung können die Befestigungsmittel nur an der ersten Funktionsfläche angeordnet sein. Hierbei ist besonders vorteilhaft, dass der Wischbezug an der, motorisch bewegbaren, ersten Funktionsfläche fixiert ist und so die Bewegungen besonders gut auf den Wischbezug und damit auf die zu reinigende Fläche übertragbar sind. Dadurch verbessert sich signifikant die Reinigungsleistung des Reinigungsgerätes. Dabei kann der Wischbezug als taschenförmiger Wischbezug ausgebildet sein, so dass der Wischbezug an den Schmalseiten fixiert ist.In an advantageous embodiment, the fastening means may be arranged only on the first functional surface. It is particularly advantageous that the mop cover is fixed to the, motor-movable, first functional surface and so the movements are particularly well transferred to the mop cover and thus to the surface to be cleaned. This significantly improves the cleaning performance of the cleaning device. In this case, the mop cover may be formed as a pocket-shaped mop cover, so that the mop cover is fixed to the narrow sides.

Der Wischbezug kann im Bereich der ersten Funktionsfläche eine Ausnehmung aufweisen. Dadurch sind die Reinigungsmittel der ersten Funktionsfläche auch bei aufgespanntem Wischbezug in Kontakt mit der zu reinigenden Fläche bringbar und es ergibt sich eine hohe abrasive Wirkung.The mop cover may have a recess in the region of the first functional surface. As a result, the cleaning agents of the first functional surface can be brought into contact with the surface to be cleaned, even when the mop cover is clamped, and a high abrasive effect results.

Der Antrieb der Reinigungsmittel kann durch einen Elektromotor erfolgen. Elektromotoren sind kostengünstige und bewährte Antriebsmittel. Als Motoren kommen herkömmliche Elektromotoren mit Anker und Wicklung, Elektromotoren ohne Anker sowie piezoelektrische Motoren und piezoelektrische Aktoren in Betracht. Herkömmliche Elektromotoren mit Anker und Wicklung sind ausgereift, kostengünstig und in verschiedenen Ausführungen erhältlich. Ankerlose Elektromotoren sind platzsparend, verschleißfrei und sind in der Lager hochfrequente Pulsbewegungen zu erzeugen. Bei piezoelektrischen Motoren können Bewegungen mit sehr hohen Frequenzen erzeugt werden. Dabei ist ein piezoelektrischer Motor verschleißfrei.The drive of the detergent can be done by an electric motor. Electric motors are inexpensive and proven drive means. As motors come into consideration conventional electric motors with armature and winding, electric motors without armature and piezoelectric motors and piezoelectric actuators. Traditional electric motors with armature and winding are mature, cost-effective and available in various designs. Anchorless electric motors are space-saving, wear-free and are capable of producing high-frequency pulse movements in the bearing. With piezoelectric motors, movements with very high frequencies can be generated. In this case, a piezoelectric motor is wear-free.

Der Antrieb des Elektromotors kann durch einen Akkumulator erfolgen. Der Akkumulator ermöglicht einen kabellosen Betrieb und eine hohe Mobilität. Bei einem bedarfsweisen Antrieb ergibt sich ein geringer Energiebedarf und eine lange Gebrauchsdauer.The drive of the electric motor can be done by an accumulator. The battery allows wireless operation and high mobility. In a demand-driven drive results in a low energy consumption and a long service life.

Die Reinigungsmittel können oszillierend bewegbar sein. Durch die schwingende Bewegung der Reinigungsmittel ergibt sich eine verbesserte Reinigungswirkung.The cleaning agents can be oscillatingly movable. The oscillating movement of the cleaning agent results in an improved cleaning effect.

Die Frequenz der oszillierenden Bewegung der Reinigungsmittel kann zwischeni 0.000 und 30.000 Hz liegen. Durch die hochfrequente Bewegung der Reinigungsmittel ergibt sich eine hohe Reinigungswirkung insbesondere gegenüber fest anhaftenden und trockenen Verschmutzungen.The frequency of the oscillating movement of the cleaning agents can be between 0.000 and 30.000 Hz. Due to the high-frequency movement of the cleaning agent results in a high cleaning effect especially against firmly adhering and dry dirt.

Die Reinigungsmittel können rotierend und/oder translatorisch bewegbar sein. Durch die sich dabei ergebende überlagerte Bewegung ergibt sich eine nochmals verbesserte Reinigungswirkung.The cleaning agents may be rotatable and / or translationally movable. The resulting superimposed movement results in a further improved cleaning effect.

Die Reinigungsmittel können aus einem Kunststoff-Spritzgus.s bestehen. Reinigungsmittel aus Kunststoff-Spritzguss sind kostengünstig und in einer großen Formvielfalt herstellbar. Dabei können die Reinigungsmittel flexibel ausgebildet sein, wodurch sich eine verbesserte Reinigungswirkung ergibt. Kurzbeschreibung der ZeichnungThe cleaning agents may consist of a plastic injection molding. Detergents made of plastic injection molding are inexpensive and can be produced in a large variety of forms. In this case, the cleaning agent can be designed to be flexible, resulting in an improved cleaning effect. Brief description of the drawing
