Definitions
- the invention is directed to a damp mop cover for floor care, consisting of a preferably textile support structure with holder insert pockets sewn on top on the longitudinal ends and with material attached on the underside for absorbing dirt and moisture as well as fringes arranged around the edges.
- Such a damp mop cover is known from DE-GM 8220574.
- fringe-like material in the form of a loop is attached to the underside of the textile carrier structure.
- the fringed material can consist of fibers of animal or vegetable origin as well as synthetic material and mixtures of these materials.
- the fringes described above are now intended to absorb the dirt and moisture which has been brought to the floor by a liquid cleaning agent used.
- Such damp mop covers have a relatively high weight and are limited in their moisture absorption capacity.
- damp mop covers especially in commercial building cleaning, it is desirable to achieve a high performance, ie the floor area to be cleaned per unit time, that the damp mop covers are on the one hand as light as possible, ie have a low weight, and on the other hand have a high dirt and moisture absorption capacity.
- the object of the invention is to improve a generic damp mop cover with a view to the lowest possible weight and high absorbency as well as large liquid storage capacity with high dirt absorption capacity.
- the underside material is sponge or fleece material with high liquid absorption capacity in the form of a plurality of strips which are arranged in rows in a row and form open channels on the bottom, the strips in each case are partially attached to the support structure.
- damp mop cover which is very light and, compared to conventional damp mop covers, significantly reduced in weight or improved in its wiping effect and dirt-absorbing capacity. Due to the arrangement of the sponge material strips, the damp mop cover glides very easily over the floors to be cleaned, absorbing moisture and dirt. The strip-like arrangement of the material improves moisture and dirt absorption, since such wet mop covers are usually guided over the floors in so-called figure eight movements and the strips of sponge cloth fold over when the wet mop cover is partially pulled over the floor and partially pushed in opposite directions during such movements.
- the invention alternately provides rows of fringes, loops or shag attached to the underside of the strips. This ensures that in addition to areas with high liquid absorption capacity (sponge or fleece material strips) areas with particularly high dirt absorption capacity (fringes, loops or shag) are formed.
- the sponge or non-woven cloth material preferably consists of cotton and cellulose or of synthetic fibers or a fiber mixture which has a thickness of 0.5 to 5 mm, a weight per unit area of 200 to 300 g / m3 and a water absorption capacity of up to 3600 g / m3.
- the wet mop according to the invention is expediently equipped with such a material.
- the carrier structure consists of a sponge or non-woven cloth material, preferably of cotton and cellulose, or of synthetic fibers or a fiber mixture, which has a thickness of 0.5 to 5 mm, a weight per unit area of 200 to 300 g / m3 and has a water absorption capacity of up to 3600 g / m3.
- the water absorption capacity or liquid storage capacity of the damp mop cover is further increased.
- the damp mop cover designated as a whole by 1, has a textile carrier structure 2, on which two insertion pockets 3 are sewn on the longitudinal end side for a holder to be inserted therein are.
- the insertion pockets 3 are preferably each formed as a plastic part, but can also be formed from flat textile structures.
- the textile carrier structure 2 On its underside, ie on the active cleaning side, the textile carrier structure 2 has strips 4 of sponge material arranged side by side in rows. These strips 4 are arranged parallel to one another in the longitudinal direction of the support structure 2 and are each attached to the support structure 2 in regions along lines 5 (indicated by dashed lines and not drawn in full length). The strips 4 can be sewn on, glued or welded.
- Fringes 6 are also attached all around the outer edge of the textile support structure 2 on its underside. These have a usual length in the case of damp mop covers and are sewn, tufted, glued or welded onto the support structure 2. This outer, circumferential fringe wreath is arranged in the area of the greatest accumulation of dirt. The fine hairs of the fringes hold the dirt particularly firmly and penetrate all joints and crevices without any problems. Apart from the fringed outer edge, the textile carrier structure 2 is otherwise only covered with the strip-like sponge material on its underside.
- the sponge material of the strips 4 consists of a mixture of cotton and cellulose.
- the strips have a thickness of 0.5 to 5 mm, a weight per unit area of 200 to 300 g / m3 and a water absorption capacity of up to 3600 g / m3.
- the sponge cloth material is boil-proof so that the entire damp mop cover is washable at temperatures of 60 ° C.
- the water absorption capacity of up to 3600 g / m3 was determined according to DIN 53 923. Based on the weight per unit area, this water absorption means that the relative water absorption of the Sponge material is up to approx. 1400%. This means that the sponge cloth material can absorb around 1400% of its weight in the cleaning liquor.
- the sponge cloth material is characterized by a wetting time of less than 4 s and a suction speed of more than 5 cm. The latter is measured on 15 mm wide test specimens based on DIN 53 924, the measurement duration being 30 s and working without any weight. When wet, the sponge material has a tensile strength greater than 20 N.
- the strips 4 can also consist of non-woven cloth material made of synthetic fibers or a fiber mixture, polyvinyl alcohol, polyester or polyamide being suitable as materials. Such a nonwoven cloth material has the same properties as described above for the sponge cloth material. It can also be provided that in addition to the strips 4, the carrier structure 2 also consists of the sponge or nonwoven cloth material described above.
- the fringes 6 attached all around on the outer edge of the textile support structure 2 can also be designed as loops or shag.
- fringes, loops or shag are arranged alternately on the underside of the carrier structure 2 next to the strips. Like the strips 4, these are arranged parallel to the strips 4 in the longitudinal direction of the support structure 2 and in each case along the lines 5 on the support structure 2 attached. For these rows there are the same fastening options as for the fringes 6. All the fringes, loops or shags described consist of a material that is normally used for damp mop covers.
- the described exemplary embodiments of the invention can be modified in many ways without departing from the basic idea of the invention. It is also possible, for example, for the rows of strips 4 and, if appropriate, strips of fringes, loops or shaggles not to be arranged parallel to one another in the longitudinal direction of the support structure 2, but rather in the transverse direction to the support structure 2. It is also conceivable that the underside material is attached in a circular shape or zigzag shape or similar patterns.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung richtet sich auf einen Feuchtwischbezug für die Fußbodenpflege, bestehend aus einem vorzugsweise textilen Trägergebilde mit oberseitig an den Längsenden aufgenähten Haltereinschubtaschen und mit unterseitig angebrachtem Material zur Aufnahme von Schmutz und Feuchigkeit sowie randseitig umlaufend angeordneten Fransen.The invention is directed to a damp mop cover for floor care, consisting of a preferably textile support structure with holder insert pockets sewn on top on the longitudinal ends and with material attached on the underside for absorbing dirt and moisture as well as fringes arranged around the edges.
Ein derartiger Feuchtwischbezug ist aus dem DE-GM 8220574 bekannt. Hierbei ist auf der Unterseite des textilen Trägergebildes fransenartiges Material in Schlingenform angebracht. Das Fransenmaterial kann aus Fasern tierischer oder pflanzlicher Herkunft sowie synthetischem Material und aus Gemischen dieser Materialien bestehen. Bei der Anwendung bei der Fußbodenpflege sollen die vorstehend beschriebenen Fransen nun den Schmutz sowie die Feuchtigkeit aufnehmen, die durch ein verwendetes flüssiges Reinigungsmittel auf den Boden gebracht worden ist. Derartige Feuchtwischbezüge weisen aber ein relativ hohes Eigengewicht auf und sind in ihrem Feuchtigkeitsaufnahmevermögen beschränkt.Such a damp mop cover is known from DE-GM 8220574. Here, fringe-like material in the form of a loop is attached to the underside of the textile carrier structure. The fringed material can consist of fibers of animal or vegetable origin as well as synthetic material and mixtures of these materials. When used in floor care, the fringes described above are now intended to absorb the dirt and moisture which has been brought to the floor by a liquid cleaning agent used. Such damp mop covers, however, have a relatively high weight and are limited in their moisture absorption capacity.
Für die Anwendung derartiger Feuchtwischbezüge, insbesondere bei gewerblich betriebener Gebäudereinigung, ist es zur Erzielung einer hohen Leistung, d. h. der pro Zeiteinheit zu reinigenden Fußbodenfläche, gewünscht, daß die Feuchtwischbezüge einerseits möglichst leicht sind, d. h. ein geringes Eigengewicht haben, und andererseits ein hohes Schmutz- und Feuchtigkeitsaufnahmevermögen aufweisen.For the use of such damp mop covers, especially in commercial building cleaning, it is desirable to achieve a high performance, ie the floor area to be cleaned per unit time, that the damp mop covers are on the one hand as light as possible, ie have a low weight, and on the other hand have a high dirt and moisture absorption capacity.
Zur Schaffung von Feuchtwischbezügen mit einem hohen Schmutz- und Feuchtigkeitsaufnahmevermögen ist in den DE-GM 8434710 und DE-GM 8503569 bereits vorgeschlagen worden, auf der reinigungsaktiven Seite wellenförmig angeordnete Vliesstoffstreifen anzubringen, die in den bodenseitigen Wellenkuppen Längsschlitze aufweisen, durch welche hindurch Schmutz und Flüssigkeit besonders gut in die als seitlich offene Hohlkörper ausgebildeten Zwischenräume zwischen Trägergebilde und wellenförmiger Vliesstoffbahn eindringen kann. Mit derartigen Feuchtwischbezügen konnte aber in der Praxis nicht die von den Benutzern gewünschte Reinigungswirkung erzielt werden. Zum einen ist die Feuchtigkeitsaufnahmefähigkeit des in diesen Literaturstellen beschriebenen Materials nicht ausreichend und zum anderen reicht die Schmutzaufnahmefähigkeit und die Wischleistung dieser Bezüge nicht an diejenige von bekannten Feuchtwischbezügen mit Fransen, Schlingen oder Zotteln an der Unterseite heran. Insbesondere wird durch die querschnittlich wellenförmig geschlossene Ausbildung der Vliesstoffbahnen derartiger Feuchtwischmops verhindert, daß deren gesamte Oberfläche für die Reinigung genutzt werden kann, da bei der Wischbewegung für die Reinigung die innerhalb der mit Schlitzen versehen Hohlräume befindliche Oberfläche nicht zur Verfügung steht.To create damp mop covers with a high dirt and moisture absorption capacity, it has already been proposed in DE-GM 8434710 and DE-GM 8503569 to apply wavy nonwoven strips on the cleaning-active side, which have longitudinal slots in the underside of the shaft through which dirt and liquid pass can penetrate particularly well into the spaces formed as a laterally open hollow body between the support structure and the corrugated nonwoven web. With such damp mop covers, however, the cleaning effect desired by the users could not be achieved in practice. On the one hand, the moisture absorption capacity of the material described in these literature references is not sufficient, and on the other hand, the dirt absorption capacity and the wiping performance of these covers do not match that of known damp mop covers with fringes, loops or shag on the underside. In particular, the cross-sectional, wavy design of the nonwoven webs of such wet mops prevents their entire surface from being used for cleaning, since during the wiping movement for cleaning the surface located within the slotted cavities is not available.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen gattungsgemäßen Feuchtwischbezug im Hinblick auf ein möglichst geringes Eigengewicht und hohe Saugfähigkeit sowie große Flüssigkeitsspeicherkapazität bei gleichzeitig hoher Schmutzaufnahmefähigkeit zu verbessern.The object of the invention is to improve a generic damp mop cover with a view to the lowest possible weight and high absorbency as well as large liquid storage capacity with high dirt absorption capacity.
Bei einem Feuchtwischbezug der eingangs bezeichneten Art wird diese Aufgabe gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß als unterseitiges Material Schwamm- oder Vliestuchmaterial mit hoher Flüssigkeitsaufnahmefähigkeit in Form von mehreren, lamellenartig in Reihen nebeneinander angeordneten und bodenseitig offene Kanäle bildenden Streifen angebracht ist, wobei die Streifen jeweils bereichsweise an dem Trägergebilde befestigt sind.In the case of a damp mop cover of the type mentioned at the outset, this object is achieved according to the invention in that the underside material is sponge or fleece material with high liquid absorption capacity in the form of a plurality of strips which are arranged in rows in a row and form open channels on the bottom, the strips in each case are partially attached to the support structure.
Hierdurch wird ein Feuchtwischbezug geschaffen, der sehr leicht und im Vergleich zu üblichen Feuchtwischbezügen in seinem Gewicht deutlich reduziert bzw. in seiner Wischwirkung und Schmutzaufnahmefähigkeit verbessert ist. Aufgrund der Anordnung der Schwammtuchmaterialstreifen gleitet der Feuchtwischbezug sehr leicht über die zu reinigenden Fußböden und nimmt dabei die Feuchtigkeit und den Schmutz auf. Durch die streifenartige Anordnung des Materials wird die Feuchtigkeits- und Schmutzaufnahme verbessert, da üblicherweise derartige Feuchtwischbezüge in sogenannten Achter-Bewegungen über die Fußböden geführt werden und die Schwammtuchmaterialstreifen umklappen, wenn der Feuchtwischbezug bei derartigen Bewegungen teilweise über den Fußboden gezogen und teilweise gegenläufig geschoben wird.This creates a damp mop cover which is very light and, compared to conventional damp mop covers, significantly reduced in weight or improved in its wiping effect and dirt-absorbing capacity. Due to the arrangement of the sponge material strips, the damp mop cover glides very easily over the floors to be cleaned, absorbing moisture and dirt. The strip-like arrangement of the material improves moisture and dirt absorption, since such wet mop covers are usually guided over the floors in so-called figure eight movements and the strips of sponge cloth fold over when the wet mop cover is partially pulled over the floor and partially pushed in opposite directions during such movements.
Aufgrund des geringen Gewichtes des erfindungsgemäßen Feuchtwischbezuges ergibt sich als weiterer Vorteil, daß die Reinigungs- und Waschkosten für den Feuchtwischbezug, verglichen mit üblichen Bezügen, geringer sind.Due to the low weight of the damp mop cover according to the invention, there is a further advantage that the cleaning and washing costs for the damp mop cover are lower compared to conventional covers.
Weiterhin sieht die Erfindung abwechselnd neben den Streifen unterseitig angebrachte Reihen von Fransen, Schlingen oder Zotteln vor. Hierdurch wird erreicht, daß neben Bereichen mit hoher Flüssigkeitsaufnahmefähigkeit (Schwamm- oder Vliestuchmaterialstreifen) Bereiche mit besonders hoher Schmutzaufnahmefähigkeit (Fransen, Schlingen oder Zotteln) ausgebildet sind.Furthermore, the invention alternately provides rows of fringes, loops or shag attached to the underside of the strips. This ensures that in addition to areas with high liquid absorption capacity (sponge or fleece material strips) areas with particularly high dirt absorption capacity (fringes, loops or shag) are formed.
Weiterhin sieht die Erfindung vor, daß das Schwamm- oder Vliestuchmaterial vorzugsweise aus Baumwolle und Cellulose oder aus synthetischen Fasern bzw. einem Fasergemisch besteht, welches eine Dicke von 0,5 bis 5 mm, ein Flächengewicht von 200 bis 300 g/m³ und eine Wasseraufnahmefähigkeit von bis zu 3600 g/m³ aufweist. Zweckmäßigerweise wird der erfindungsgemäße Feuchtwischmop mit einem derartigen Material bestückt.Furthermore, the invention provides that the sponge or non-woven cloth material preferably consists of cotton and cellulose or of synthetic fibers or a fiber mixture which has a thickness of 0.5 to 5 mm, a weight per unit area of 200 to 300 g / m³ and a water absorption capacity of up to 3600 g / m³. The wet mop according to the invention is expediently equipped with such a material.
Schließlich sieht die Erfindung vor, daß das Trägergebilde aus einem Schwamm- oder Vliestuchmaterial vorzugsweise aus Baumwolle und Cellulose oder aus synthetischen Fasern bzw. einem Fasergemisch besteht, welches eine Dicke von 0,5 bis 5 mm, ein Flächengewicht von 200 bis 300 g/m³ und eine Wasseraufnahmefähigkeit von bis zu 3600 g/m³ aufweist. Hierdurch wird die Wasseraufnahmefähigkeit bzw. Flüssigkeitsspeicherkapazität des Feuchtwischbezuges weiterhin vergrößert.Finally, the invention provides that the carrier structure consists of a sponge or non-woven cloth material, preferably of cotton and cellulose, or of synthetic fibers or a fiber mixture, which has a thickness of 0.5 to 5 mm, a weight per unit area of 200 to 300 g / m³ and has a water absorption capacity of up to 3600 g / m³. As a result, the water absorption capacity or liquid storage capacity of the damp mop cover is further increased.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel ist nachstehend anhand der Zeichnung beispielsweise näher erläutert. Diese zeigt einen erfindungsgemäßen Feuchtwischmop in teilweise geschnittener Darstellung.An embodiment is explained below with reference to the drawing, for example. This shows a wet mop according to the invention in a partially sectioned illustration.
Der insgesamt mit 1 bezeichnete Feuchtwischbezug weist ein textiles Trägergebilde 2 auf, auf welchem längsendseitig zwei Einschubtaschen 3 für einen darin einzusetzenden Halter aufgenäht sind. Die Einschubtaschen 3 sind vorzugsweise jeweils als ein Kunststoffteil ausgebildet, können aber auch aus textilen Flächengebilden gebildet sein. Auf seiner Unterseite, d. h. auf der reinigungsaktiven Seite, weist das textile Trägergebilde 2 in Reihen nebeneinander angeordnete Streifen 4 aus Schwammtuchmaterial auf. Diese Streifen 4 sind in Längsrichtung des Trägergebildes 2 parallel nebeneinander angeordnet und jeweils bereichsweise entlang Linien 5 (gestrichelt angedeutet und nicht in voller Länge gezeichnet) an dem Trägergebilde 2 befestigt. Die Streifen 4 können aufgenäht, -geklebt oder -geschweißt sein. Umlaufend am äußeren Rand des textilen Trägergebildes 2 sind an dessen Unterseite ferner Fransen 6 befestigt. Diese weisen eine bei Feuchtwischbezügen übliche Länge auf und sind auf das Trägergebilde 2 aufgenäht, -getuftet, -geklebt oder -geschweißt. Dieser äußere, umlaufende Fransenkranz ist im Bereich des größten Schmutzanfalles angeordnet. Die feinen Härchen der Fransen halten den Schmutz besonders fest und dringen in alle Fugen und Ritzen problemlos ein. Außer an dem mit Fransen besetzten umlaufenden äußeren Rand ist das textile Trägergebilde 2 auf seiner Unterseite ansonsten nur mit dem streifenförmigen Schwammtuchmaterial besetzt.The damp mop cover, designated as a whole by 1, has a
Das Schwammtuchmaterial der Streifen 4 besteht aus einem Gemisch aus Baumwolle und Cellulose. Die Streifen weisen eine Dicke von 0,5 bis 5 mm, ein Flächengewicht von 200 bis 300 g/m³ und eine Wasseraufnahmefähigkeit von bis zu 3600 g/m³ auf. Das Schwammtuchmaterial ist kochfest, so daß der gesamte Feuchtwischbezug bei Temperaturen von 60 °C waschbar ist. Die Wasseraufnahmefähigkeit von bis zu 3600 g/m ³ wurde entsprechend DIN 53 923 ermittelt. Bezogen auf das Flächengewicht bedeutet diese Wasseraufnahme, daß die relative Wasseraufnahme des Schwammaterials bis zu ca. 1400 % beträgt. Dies bedeutet, daß das Schwammtuchmaterial rund 1400 % seines Gewichts an Reinigungsflotte aufsaugen kann. Bisher aus dem Stand der Technik bekannte Feuchtwischbezüge weisen kein so hohes Wasseraufnahmevermögen auf. Weiterhin ist das Schwammtuchmaterial durch eine Netzzeit von kleiner 4 s und eine Sauggeschwindigkeit von größer 5 cm gekennzeichnet. Letztere wird an 15 mm breiten Prüflingen in Anlehnung an DIN 53 924 gemessen, wobei die Meßdauer 30 s beträgt und ohne Beschwerung gearbeitet wird. Im feuchten Zustand weist das Schwammtuchmaterial eine Reißkraft größer 20 N auf.The sponge material of the
Die Streifen 4 können auch aus Vliestuchmaterial aus synthetischen Fasern bzw. einem Fasergemisch bestehen, wobei als Materialien Polyvinylalkohol, Polyester oder Polyamid in Frage kommen. Ein derartiges Vliestuchmaterial weist die gleichen Eigenschaften auf, wie sie vorstehend für das Schwammtuchmaterial beschrieben sind.Es kann auch vorgesehen sein, daß neben den Streifen 4 auch das Trägergebilde 2 aus dem vorstehend beschriebenen Schwamm- oder Vliestuchmaterial besteht.The
Die umlaufend am äußeren Rand des textilen Trägergebildes 2 befestigten Fransen 6 können auch als Schlingen oder Zotteln ausgebildet sein.The
In einem weiteren, nicht in der Figur 1 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind an der Unterseite des Trägergebildes 2 abwechselnd neben den Streifen 4 Reihen von Fransen, Schlingen oder Zotteln angeordnet. Diese sind ebenso wie die Streifen 4 in Längsrichtung des Trägergebildes 2 parallel zu den Streifen 4 angeordnet und jeweils entlang der Linien 5 an dem Trägergebilde 2 befestigt. Für diese Reihen bestehen dieselben Befestigungsmöglichkeiten wie für die Fransen 6. Sämtliche beschriebenen Fransen, Schlingen oder Zotteln bestehen aus einem üblicherweise bei Feuchtwischbezügen verwendeten Material.In a further exemplary embodiment, not shown in FIG. 1, 4 rows of fringes, loops or shag are arranged alternately on the underside of the
Natürlich sind die beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung noch in vielfacher Hinsicht abzuändern, ohne den Grundgedanken der Erfindung zu verlassen. So ist es zum Beispiel auch möglich, daß die Reihen von Streifen 4 und gegebenenfalls Streifen aus Fransen, Schlingen oder Zotteln nicht parallel zueinander in Längsrichtung des Trägergebildes 2, sondern in Querrichtung zum Trägergebilde 2 angeordnet sind. Auch ist denkbar, daß das unterseitige Material in Kreisform oder Zick- Zack-Form oder ähnlichen Mustern angebracht ist.Of course, the described exemplary embodiments of the invention can be modified in many ways without departing from the basic idea of the invention. It is also possible, for example, for the rows of
