  • a cleaner with a rotary brush is used to clean the carpet having a cleaning area 50 cm ⁇ 50 cm (commercially available cut pile carpet [Sun Harmony (trade name) manufactured by Sangetsu, fiber: acrylic 85%, nylon 15%, pile length: 8 mm, density: gage ⁇ fraction (1/10) ⁇ , stitch 14.5]) in a carpet mode.
  • Collection rate (%) (amount of attached bread crumb)/(amount of scattered bread crumb) ⁇ 100
  • the adhesive roll 21 is structured such that the adhesive sheet 21 A is wound around the core 21 B and the initial outer diameter of the adhesive roll 21 is small such as 40 mm or less, whereby it is possible to make the cleaning device 10 compact. Since the adhesive roll 21 is not directly in contact with the surface to be cleaned, the other implanted fabrics such as the carpet or the like other than dust are not attached onto the surface of the adhesive roll 21 due to picking off or the like, so that even when the surface area of the adhesive roll 21 is small, the adhesive force does not become weak in a few moments.
  • the adhesive roll 21 Since the adhesive roll 21 is not directly in contact with the surface to be cleaned, there is not a risk that the adhesive roll 21 is strongly adhered to the flooring or the like, whereby the adhesive roll 21 can roll thereon without increasing a risk that the adhesive roll 21 picks off the implanted fabrics such as the carpet or the like to injure the surface to be cleaned. Further, the amount of application of the adhesive agent on the base material 21 B of the adhesive sheet 21 A can be increased to an amount between 25 and 50 g/m 2 , thereby increasing the adhesive force. Accordingly, it is possible to increase the amount of dust picked up by the adhesive roll and it is possible to increase the cleaning force maintaining area after the new adhesive sheet 21 A is exposed.
  • the numerical value based on the tilt type ball tack of the adhesive surface in the adhesive sheet 21 A of the adhesive roll 21 in accordance with the present invention is set to the range between 10 and 30 , the adhesive force in the adhesive sheet 21 A of the adhesive roll 21 is not too strong, it is possible to maintain the force of attaching and holding the dirt such as the hair or the like, and it is possible to increase the cleaning area.
  • the contact rotating body 18 mounts the adhesive roll 21 thereon and securely rotates the adhesive roll 21 in an interlocking manner. Accordingly, it is possible to always make the adhesive surface of the adhesive roll 21 being in contact with the scraping up body 16 due to its rotation, and it is possible to securely adhere and pick up dust scraped up by the scraping up body 16 by the new adhesive surface of the adhesive roll 21 . At this time, since the adhesive roll 21 is riding over the scraping up body 16 and the contact rotating body 18 , it is possible to attach any kind of adhesive rolls 21 having several kinds of large and small outer diameters to the cleaning device 10 . Accordingly, a freedom on manufacturing can be given to the outer diameter of the adhesive roll 21 , and it is possible to select the adhesive roll 21 having a proper outer diameter in correspondence to the floor condition.
  • the contact rotating body 18 presses dust adhered and picked up by the adhesive roll 21 to the adhesive surface of the adhesive roll 21 to fix the pick-up state of dust.
  • dust which the contact rotating body 18 picks up due to the contact with the floor surface is adhered and picked up by the adhesive roll 21 , and the adhesive roll 21 keeps the contact rotating body 18 clean.
  • the contact rotating body 18 is provided with the elastic body surface, whereby it is possible to well press and fix dust adhered and picked up in the adhesive roll 21 to the adhesive surface of the adhesive roll 21 .
  • a height of the concavo-convex portion is preferably between 0.1 and 0.5 mm in the case that the contact rotating body 18 is made of polypropylene, and more preferably between 0.2 and 0.4 mm. Further, in the case that the contact rotating body 18 is made of silicone rubber, the height may be lower than the above values.
  • the concavo-concave portion corresponds to a structure obtained by applying a rib, a convex portion, a recess portion, a crimping surface, or the like to the surface of the contact rotating body 18 .
  • the adhesive roll used in the present invention a structure obtained by detachably covering a cylindrical sheet on a core roll may be used. At this time, an original form of the cylindrical sheet is formed in a sheet type envelope-like sheet, and a lot of envelope-like sheets can be laminated with each other to be stored.
  • the scraping up body is not limited to the brush, and may be constituted by a sponge, a rubber blade, an elastomer, an elastic projection body, or the like.
  • the contact rotating body is not limited to the roll body, and may be constituted by a tire or the like.
  • the present invention it is possible to increase the cleaning force maintaining area after the new adhesive sheet of the adhesive roll is exposed, while making the cleaning device compact. Further, according to the present invention, it is possible to make the adhesive force of the adhesive roll strong without injuring the surface to be cleaned, thereby increasing the cleaning force maintaining area after the new adhesive sheet is exposed. Further, according to the present invention, it is possible to increase the floor area that can be cleaned by one rotation of the adhesive roll, thereby improve the cleaning efficiency.
