Definitions
- This invention relates to a cleaner accessory for vacuum-cleaner household appliances.
- One technical aim of the present invention is to eliminate the drawbacks of the prior art.
- One object of the invention is to find a cleaning accessory for vacuum-cleaner household appliances that enables a more complete cleaning action to be performed. This aim and these objectives are all achieved by this cleaner accessory for vacuum-cleaner household appliances as defined in the claims.
- a cleaner accessory 1 comprises a pipe union 2 for engaging the cleaner accessory 1 with the end of a conventional suction pipe 3 with which vacuum-cleaner household appliances are provided, a central support element 4 for supporting a disposable cloth 5 that can be removably fitted to the central element 4 and that can be integrally fixed to the above said engaging pipe union 2 by fixing means 6.
- the disposable cloth 5 is of the prior-art type and made of fabrics in synthetic-paper fibre (so-called TNT fabrics) and it may be dry or dampened, in such a way as to be able to also perform washing action during removal of the dust.
- the particular structure of disposable clothes of this type causes the dust attraction, which is in this way significantly removed without being dispersed in the air.
- this central support element 4 are provided at least one pair of suction mouths 7 parallel supported on the above-said pipe union 2 at opposite sides in relation with the central element 4; the suction mouths 7 are supported by and connected to the pipe union 2 by a pair of connecting pipe elements 8 that are elbow-shaped.
- the fixing means 6 comprises at least a shank 9 that is rigidly interposed between the pipe union 2 and the central support element 4.
- the pipe union 2 comprises a first pipe segment 102, a second pipe segment 202, a third pipe segment 302 that are all consecutive to one another and are interconnected to one another in a flexible manner; the first segment 102 rotationally receives the second segment 202.
- the third segment 302 is received in a rotational manner in the second segment 202.
- the configuration of the segments is such that the first segment 102 is substantially at right angles to a surface to be cleaned.
- the central element 4 comprises a flattened plate 10 whereupon the disposable cloths 5 can be wrapped up and fixed in a removable manner by relative attaching means 11 located at least on the top face of the flattened plate 10.
- the attaching means 11 comprises a series of recesses 111 provided at their respective inlets with elastically forcible tongues (non visible in the drawings because of the particular perspective) for the pressure insertion and the retention of the edges of the disposable cloths 5.
- the attaching means 11 can comprise a plurality of small tabs in a material having an adhesive contact and a pull-away removal with the edges of the disposable cloths 5, of the type known as Velcro ®.
- the attaching means 11 may comprise a plurality of pliers elements for fastening the edges of the disposable cloths 5.
- slits or interstices 12 are defined for the passage of the edges of the disposable cloths 5 that are wrapped around the flattened plate 10 for using the disposable cloths 5.
- Both the flattened plate 10 and the suction mouths 7 have a rectangular shape with the longer sides parallel to one another, and each one of them is provided with means 13 for sliding contact with the surface to be cleaned. Furthermore, the bottom faces of the suction mouths 7 and of the flattened plate 10 are substantially on the same plane as one another.
- the operation of the invention is intuitively deductible from the above disclosure and is as follows: the user engages the pipe union 2 with a conventional sucking hose of a vacuum-cleaner household appliance and applies to the flattened plate 10 a disposable cloth 5 of the type that is usually commercially available, forcibly inserting the edges of the disposable cloth 5 into the recesses 111 provided for the purpose on the top face of the flattened plate 10 that is thus wrapped by the cloth 5 itself.
- the edges of the disposable cloth are passed through the slits or interstices 12 defined for this purpose between the larger parallel and mutually facing sides of the suction mouths 7 and of the flattened plate 10.
- the user then activates the motor of the vacuum-cleaner household appliance and simultaneously rubs the surface to be cleaned with the cleaner accessory 1, thereby obtaining two actions practically simultaneous: a first dust removing action with the disposable cloth 5, a second suction action of any dust that has been raised.
- the double rotating articulated joint provided between the sections 102 and 202 enables the user to rotate the cleaning accessory 1 in any direction in relation to the end of the suction hose 3 that is normally furnished with a conventional vacuum-cleaner household appliance, and thus to reach with the cleaning accessory 1 even the most hidden areas of the surfaces to be cleaned. It has been established that the disclosed invention achieves the proposed objects.
- both the rough cleaning and finishing cleaning actions are obtained with a sole tool at one stroke.
