Definitions
- the invention relates to a cleaning device which consists of a flat structure made of cleaning material and has at least one holding loop attached in the region of the surface facing away from the cleaning side for fixing the hand.
- the wash or cleaning rags conventionally used for cleaning by hand have the disadvantage that they cannot be fixed on the hand. They must therefore be gripped for transportation after the end of a cleaning process and thus gathered up and only spread out again before cleaning the next surface. They are also only suitable to a limited extent for cleaning vertical surfaces, since they easily fall out of your hand.
- the washing gloves which can be guided better by hand and can be attached to the hand, on the other hand have the disadvantage that during the cleaning process the hand therein is uncomfortably soaked by the cleaning liquid used.
- a cleaning device consisting of a flat structure made of cleaning material with at least one mounting loop attached in the region of the surface facing away from the cleaning side for fixing the hand or parts of the hand, which is characterized in that the loop ends of the mounting loop in the area of the surface attached closely together
- the advantage of the invention over the prior art is that, when the middle and / or the ring finger is passed through the mounting loop, for example, the laterally adjacent fingers exert a fixing effect on the loop, so that the cleaning device is advantageously guided well during the process Cleaning process and is also secured afterwards, without the loop having to fit snugly on the finger or fingers being carried out.
- This makes it particularly possible to dimension the bracket loop generously, so that it is suitable for use by users with a wide variety of finger diameters, without one to act constricting or not to offer enough grip for users with small finger diameters
- both sides of the cleaning device designed as a flat structure are designed as cleaning surfaces. It is particularly expedient to arrange a through-opening through the flat structure for carrying out the support loop between or immediately next to the loop ends of the mounting loop.
- This embodiment of the invention enables both sides the flat cleaning device to be used as the cleaning side, since the loop can be used as a holding loop on each side after carrying out and does not interfere or get dirty on the surface used as the cleaning side
- the cleaning device expediently contains or consists of a textile flat structure. It may be advantageous if the flat structure has a certain inherent rigidity. The inherent rigidity enables the use of the entire cleaning surface of the cleaning device according to the invention, even if it is dimensioned much larger than the surface of the hand resting on it
- the cleaning device For the cleaning effect of the cleaning device according to the invention, it is expedient to use polypropylene to form the textile structure, since it has very good liquid absorption capacity.
- the pile threads are particularly suitable for cleaning uneven surfaces in the household or also the pore-like body skin. It is particularly expedient here to use a pile fabric with pile fibers containing microfibers, since these provide a particularly large cleaning-active surface
- the two cleaning sides of the flat structure can be of the same or different design. For example, they can differ with regard to the cleaning material. It can be advantageous that the cleaning materials differ fundamentally, that is to say, for example, to form a cleaning side from textile and the other from leather or sponge
- both cleaning sides can differ in terms of fiber density, fiber titer and / or the type of fiber abrasive cleaning should be equipped with fibers of great stiffness and the other soft fibers, which are more absorbent for post-cleaning or post-cleaning, e.g. microfibers with a special density to provide a large cleaning-active surface. It is technically particularly easy to manufacture the cleaning device according to the invention from two flat layers, which to be joined together to form the cleaning device
- the bracket loop is advantageously made of flexible, tear-resistant material, since it is subject to particularly high mechanical stress.It is therefore expediently also particularly stable, for example by means of multiple seams and / or gluing or welding, etc. attached to the cleaning device according to the invention.It can be formed, for example, by a tape be, the two ends of the solution are fixed to the surface or by a circular textile, which is fixed to the surface In this case, the ends of the bracket loop are inevitably adjacent, that is, particularly close to each other. Of course, in this case, the opening can only be next to the bracket loop be arranged
- Fig. 1 is a plan view of an inventive dimension designed as a washcloth
- the cleaning device 1 shown in FIG. 1 is designed as a washcloth and made from a microfiber pile structure with a high fiber density in order to ensure a particularly high absorption capacity for dirt and liquids.
- the cleaning device 1 is provided with a mounting loop 2, which consists of a tear-resistant textile tape, which is sewn to the cleaning device 1 by means of stable multiple stitching at closely arranged fastening points.
- the holding loop 2 is arranged centrally in the transverse axis of the cleaning device 1 and in the longitudinal axis within the upper half of the cleaning device 1. This arrangement is particularly advantageous since it has approximately the proportions corresponds to an overlying hand with the middle finger passed through the mounting loop 2.
- the shape of the cleaning device 1 is also ergonomically adapted to the shape of an overlying hand that guides during the cleaning process
- a through-opening 3 in the cleaning device 1 through which the mounting loop 2 can be passed, in order to fix the hand on one or the other side of the cleaning device 1 to be able to use
- FIG. 2a shows a cleaning device 1 according to the invention, designed as a cleaning rag, in a cross-sectional view.
- the cleaning rag is made from two differently designed textile layers made of polypropylene, one layer containing 5 polyester microfibers with a high density of 200,000 per cm 2.
- the other textile layer 6 contains medium-density polyester microfibers (100,000 per cm 2 ) and additionally has brush fibers 7
- This abrasion side is therefore suitable for mechanical / chemical pre-cleaning or the removal of stubborn stains, whereas the post-cleaning side 5 is characterized by its particularly large, cleaning-active, soft surface, which absorbs the soiled dirt and
- the holder loop 2 consists of a very tear-resistant textile band.
- the ends 8 of the textile band forming the holding loop 2 are inserted between the two different layers 5/6 of the cleaning rag and attached to the Edges 4 of the through-opening 3 are stably fixed to the textile layers 5 and 6 by means of multiple seams.
- the holding loop 2 is dimensioned such that it has a circumference of approximately 8 cm and is therefore suitable for receiving an average-sized middle finger Use abrasion side 6, with the mounting loop 2 first being led to the post-cleaning side 5 of the cleaning rag 1 in order to serve for attachment to the hand thereupon, it can then simply be passed through the opening 3 (see FIG. 2b), so that the post-cleaning or polishing can be done with the post-cleaning page 5
- the cleaning device 1 according to the invention can be used as a body washcloth with differently designed cleaning sides, expediently using materials that are particularly body- or skin-friendly.
- the use of the abrasion side brings about an advantageous peeling effect and the post-cleaning side is particularly suitable for cleaning sensitive body parts
