Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cleaning device, such as a broom or the like.
  • brushes and the like of the type which include a handle which can be attached under pressure or with a screw-thread to a rubber base provided with the corresponding brush, which in turn is attached to said base by means of any mechanical fixing system.
  • the first model relates to a cleaning utensil which comprises a base which can be coupled to a handle and is provided with a brush or the like of flexible material which is independent of said base. Furthermore, coupling means linked to the brush are provided for attaching the latter to the base.
  • the second utility model describes a securing device applicable to cleaning utensils, in particular for brushes and the like.
  • the securing device in question has a neck which receives the handle and a base of flexible material which is fixed to the cleaning utensil.
  • the cleaning device object of the invention has been developed in order to provide additional advantages with respect to the solutions described.
  • the cleaning device of the invention comprises a base of rigid material which can be attached to a handle and which incorporates a brush or similar cleaning element, made of flexible material and independent of the base, which includes coupling means between the base and the brush.
  • Said device is characterized in that the coupling means are constituted by an element which is independent of the base and of the brush.
  • Said coupling element is made of rigid material, and can be coupled to the base and to the brush respectively.
  • said base is provided with a plurality of grooved projections distributed inside it which define, with the exterior outline of the base, an interior perimetric channel.
  • the coupling element of rigid material is provided with a plurality of tabs, distributed on the interior perimeter of said element, which can be coupled under pressure in the corresponding grooved projections of the base.
  • the base, the coupling element and the brush are thus totally attached to each other to provide a compact and strong structure.
  • the brush is preferably provided with a plurality of lugs which secure the coupling element to the brush. At the same time, the lugs of the brush are engaged into the interior perimetric channel of the base.
  • At least one of the larger sides of the brush extends in a skirt.
  • the cleaning utensil of the invention can thus be used to clean solid remains stuck to the floor or any other type of dirt difficult to remove with the brush.
  • the base presents means for securing it to a handle or the like.
  • These means comprise a bushing provided with an interior screw thread, the lower part of which has an exterior profile which matches the interior profile of the neck of the base.
  • Said lower part extends in a number of feet, the end of each of which is provided with a projection by way of lug which can be coupled to said neck of the base.
  • both the base and the coupling element are provided with a number of reinforcing ribs running transversally inside said base and said coupling element.
  • Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view of the cleaning device; and Figure 2 is a plan view of the interior of the base.
  • the cleaning device comprises a base 1 which can be coupled to a handle 2.
  • a brush 3 can be coupled to said base 1 thanks to the coupling means 4, which are made up of a coupling element 5 which is independent of the base 1 and of the brush 3.
  • the base 1 is provided with a plurality of grooved projections 6, which are distributed in its interior. With the exterior outline 7 of the base 1, said projections define an interior perimetric channel 8.
  • the coupling element 5 is provided with a plurality of tabs 9, distributed on the interior perimeter of said element 5, which can be coupled under pressure in the corresponding grooved projections 6 of the base 1.
  • the brush 3 is provided with a plurality of lugs 10 which secure the coupling element 5 to the brush 3. At the same time, these lugs 10 are engaged into the interior perimetric channel 8 of the base 1, shown in Figure 2.
  • Figure 1 shows the brush 3 extending in the skirt 11.
  • the base 1 has means 12 for securing it to a handle 2, which include a bushing 13 provided with an interior screw thread.
  • the lower part of the bushing 13 has an octagonal exterior profile 15 which matches the interior profile 16 of the neck 17 of the base 1, shown in greater detail in Figure 2.
  • Said lower part extends in four feet 18,19,20,21, arranged alternately and provided at their ends with a projection by way of lug which can be coupled to said neck 17.
  • Figure 2 shows the reinforcing ribs 22 of the base 1, arranged transversally inside it.
  • the coupling element 5 has reinforcing ribs 23 which lend it rigidity, as shown in Figure 1.
