Abstract

The invention relates to a portable device enabling the operator, without the risk of falling, to wash flat surfaces manually and continuously. It consists of a container (2) holding a washing product and of a telescopic handle which is connected via a hose (5) to the container. A lever (1) actuates a pneumatic pump (8) permitting the pressurisation of the container, which pump is controlled by a needle valve actuated by a trigger (4) which is fixed to the telescopic handle, this permitting obstruction of the orifice for the inlet of the product into this handle. In order to allow height adjustment, the handle consists of two tubes, one sliding in the other, and fitted with a locking ring. Another ring permits rapid connection and disconnection of various cleaning tools. The device according to the invention is particularly intended for washing windows.

Description

L'invention concerne un appareil portatif permettant le nettoyage de surfaces planes tel que les sols ou les surfaces verticales même difficiles d'accès,
Le nettoyage de ces surfaces est traditionnellement effectué à l'aide d'une panoplie d'ustensiles constituée d'éponges, raclettes, chiffons, balais, et seau contenant un produit de lavage
De plus, les travaux en hauteur nécessitent généralement l'utilisation d'une échelle ou d'un escabeau, ce qui constitue un risque de chute pour l'opérateur ainsi qu'une manutention malaisée de cet appareillage.
The invention relates to a portable device allowing the cleaning of flat surfaces such as floors or vertical surfaces even difficult to access,
The cleaning of these surfaces is traditionally carried out using a panoply of utensils consisting of sponges, squeegees, rags, brooms, and bucket containing a detergent
In addition, work at height generally requires the use of a ladder or a stepladder, which constitutes a risk of falling for the operator as well as awkward handling of this equipment.

L'appareil selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. The apparatus according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks.

Il comporte en effet selon une première caractéristique
- Un réservoir contenant un produit de lavage. Pour faciliter son transport, ce réservoir est fixé sur le dos de l'utilisateur au moyen de sangles réglables. Un couvercle étanche à ouverture rapide permet l'introduction du produit de lavage à l'intérieur du réservoir. Ce couvercle est muni d'un tube plongeur suffisamment long pour permettre un soutirage maximum de produit.
It has indeed according to a first characteristic
- A tank containing a detergent. To facilitate its transport, this tank is fixed on the user's back by means of adjustable straps. A tight lid with quick opening allows the introduction of the detergent inside the tank. This cover is provided with a sufficiently long dip tube to allow maximum withdrawal of product.

- Une pompe pneumatique à amorçage manuel fixée sur le couvercle du réservoir permet la mise en pression du conteneur qui est équipé d'une soupape de protection. - A pneumatic pump with manual priming fixed on the cover of the tank allows the pressurization of the container which is equipped with a protection valve.

Cette pompe est actionnée par un levier fixé contre le réservoir.This pump is actuated by a lever fixed against the tank.

- Un outil ou accessoire, prolongé d'un manche télescopique réglable permet à l'utilisateur le nettoyage des surfaces par brossage, raclage, grattage ou lustrage. L'outil ou accessoire est interchangeable au profit d'un autre offrant des fonctions analogues ou complémentaires. - A tool or accessory, extended by an adjustable telescopic handle allows the user to clean the surfaces by brushing, scraping, scraping or buffing. The tool or accessory is interchangeable for the benefit of another offering similar or complementary functions.

- Le manche télescopique est raccordé au réservoir par un flexible pour permettre l'alimentation du produit jusqu'à l'outil ou jusqu'à la surface à nettoyer. Pour autoriser un réglage en longueur, ce manche est constitué de deux tubes coulissant l'un dans l'autre et muni d'une bague de blocage.  - The telescopic handle is connected to the tank by a hose to allow the product to be fed to the tool or to the surface to be cleaned. To allow adjustment in length, this handle consists of two tubes sliding one inside the other and provided with a locking ring.

La montée du produit est obtenue par compression d'air dans le réservoir au moyen de la pompe pneumatique et est contrôlée par un mécanisme situé dans le manche de l'outil. The rise of the product is obtained by air compression in the tank by means of the pneumatic pump and is controlled by a mechanism located in the handle of the tool.

Ce mécanisme est constitué par un tiroir mobile permettant l'obstruction éventuelle de l'orifice d'arrivée du produit à l'intérieur du manche télescopique. This mechanism consists of a movable drawer allowing possible obstruction of the product inlet orifice inside the telescopic handle.

L'action du tiroir est provoquée par l'utilisateur à l'aide d'une gâchette articulée fixée sur le manche télescopique. Le tiroir est muni d'un ressort de rappel à la fermeture.The action of the drawer is caused by the user using an articulated trigger fixed on the telescopic handle. The drawer is fitted with a closing return spring.

Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention
- La figure 1 représente une vue éclatée du dispositif selon l'invention.
The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention
- Figure 1 shows an exploded view of the device according to the invention.

- La figure 2 représente en coupe le détail du manche télescopique. - Figure 2 shows in section the detail of the telescopic handle.

- La figure 3 représente en coupe le détail du dispositif de commande de circulation du produit de lavage. - Figure 3 shows in section the detail of the device for controlling the circulation of the washing product.

En référence au dessin de la figure 1, le dispositif comporte le levier (1) de commande de la pompe, le réservoir (2) cylindrique équipé d'un couvercle étanche, la fixation (3) pour le passage des sangles, la gâchette (4) du dispositif de commande de circulation du produit de lavage , le flexible (5) relié a un tube plongeur non illustré fixé sur le couvercle du réservoir et sur le manche (17). Un grattoir (7), un diffuseur (10) de produit, une raclette (11) et une éponge (12) constituent les outils ou accessoires. With reference to the drawing in FIG. 1, the device comprises the lever (1) for controlling the pump, the cylindrical tank (2) equipped with a tight cover, the fixing (3) for the passage of the straps, the trigger ( 4) of the device for controlling the circulation of the washing product, the hose (5) connected to a not illustrated dip tube fixed to the tank cover and to the handle (17). A scraper (7), a product diffuser (10), a squeegee (11) and a sponge (12) constitute the tools or accessories.

La pompe pneumatique (8) est constituée par un piston et une chambre de compression non illustrés, la soupape (9) permet de limiter la pression dans le réservoir (2). The pneumatic pump (8) consists of a piston and a compression chamber not shown, the valve (9) makes it possible to limit the pressure in the tank (2).
