Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen textilen Bodenwischbelag aus biegeweichem Textilmaterial, der auf einem Spannrahmen eines manuellen Reinigungsgerätes lösbar festspannbar ist, wobei der Bodenwischbelag mit seinen Randbereichen über die Haltefläche des Spannrahmens zumindest teilweise seitlich übersteht und in diesen Randbereichen versteift ist.The present invention relates to a textile floor wiping covering bendable textile material on a tenter of a manual Cleaning device is releasably clampable, the floor wiping with its edge areas at least over the holding surface of the tenter partially protrudes laterally and is stiffened in these edge areas.
Es ist eine Vielzahl von manuell handhabbaren Bodenreinigungsgeräten zur Feucht- und Trockenreinigung von Bodenflächen und gegebenenfalls Wänden bekannt, siehe DE-A-4 439 363 und EP-A-909 549, bei denen vorne an einem Handhabungsstiel ein Spannrahmen angebracht ist. Auf diesen Spannrahmen ist als eigentliches Reinigungselement eine Textilbespannung anbringbar. Die Befestigung erfolgt in aller Regel durch aufspreizbare oder aufklappbare Flügel des Spannrahmens, die in korrespondierende Taschen oder Laschen an dem Bodenwischbelag eingreifen. Derartige Ausführungen haben den grundsätzlichen Vorteil, daß der Wischbelag leicht auszutauschen ist.It is a variety of manually operated floor cleaning devices Wet and dry cleaning of floor surfaces and possibly walls known, see DE-A-4 439 363 and EP-A-909 549, in which a tenter frame on the front of a handle is appropriate. On this stenter is the actual cleaning element a textile covering can be attached. The attachment is usually done by expandable or hinged wings of the stenter, which in engage corresponding pockets or tabs on the floor wiping surface. Such designs have the basic advantage that the wiping surface is easy to replace.
Der Bodenwischbelag wird auf der nach unten gerichteten Aufspann- bzw. Haltefläche des Spannrahmens derart aufgespannt, daß die reinigungsaktive Reinigungsseite der Textilbespannung nach außen, d.h. ebenfalls nach unten gerichtet ist. Zur Vergrößerung der aktiven Wischfläche ist man dazu übergegangen, den Bodenwischbelag flächenmäßig größer zu gestalten, als die Haltefläche des Spannrahmens, d.h. den Wischbelag entweder umlaufend oder teilweise seitlich über den äußeren Rand des Spannrahmens überstehen zu lassen. The floor squeegee is placed on the downward facing or Holding surface of the stenter stretched so that the cleaning active Cleaning side of the textile covering to the outside, i.e. also down is directed. In order to enlarge the active wiping area, one has gone over to to make the floor wiping surface larger than that Retaining surface of the stenter, i.e. either wiping the wiping surface or partially protrude laterally beyond the outer edge of the stenter to let.
Die Reinigungswirkung eines derartigen Wischgerätes ist umso besser, je gleichmäßiger der Kontakt der Reinigungsseite des Wischbelags über seine gesamte aktive Fläche mit der zu reinigenden Oberfläche ist. Der Wischbelag sollte dazu bei der Reinigung von Boden- und Wandflächen jederzeit satt auf der zu reinigenden Oberfläche aufliegen und sich möglichst auch beim festeren Anpressen zur Entfernung von hartnäckigen Verunreinigungen nicht verwerfen oder durchbiegen. Während diese Anforderung im Bereich der glatt gespannten Haltefläche des Spannrahmens problemlos erfüllt wird, ist die erforderliche Stabilität in den nicht abgestützten, überstehenden Randbereichen des Bodenwischbelags größtenteils nicht gewährleistet. Im Stand der Technik ist ausweislich der EP 0 630 606 B1 zwar vorgeschlagen worden, eine Verstärkung aus kordel- oder drahtartigem Material in den Wischbelag einzuziehen. Zum einen hat der daraus bekannte Wischbelag immer noch nach außen vorstehende, unverstärkte Randbereiche, zum anderen sorgt eine derartige Verstärkung lediglich zur Erhöhung der Biegesteifigkeit der linienförmigen Außenkante, nicht jedoch der Fläche des überstehenden Bereiches quer zur Außenkante. Als alternative Maßnahme zur Verstärkung ist es aus der EP 0 664 100 A1 bekannt, die Ränder des Bodenwischbelags auf die Oberseite umzuschlagen und dort zu vernähen bzw. zu verkleben. Das Textilmaterial des Wischbelags ist jedoch - auch zur Gewährleistung einer guten Reinigungswirkung - in sich relativ biegeweich bzw. biegeschlaff. Durch die im wesentlichen linienförmigen Nähte oder Klebenähte wird deshalb wiederum allenfalls eine Erhöhung der Formbeständigkeit in Nahtrichtung, d.h. in Kantenrichtung erreicht. In der Querrichtung, die erfahrungsgemäß durch die beim Wischen auftretenden Kräfte besonders zu unerwünschter Durchbiegung bzw. Verwerfung neigt, ist die Formsteifigkeit jedoch nicht ausreichend. Selbst das dort doppelt gelegte Textilmaterial hat in seinen äußeren Randbereichen lediglich eine geringe Eigensteifigkeit.The cleaning effect of such a mopping device is all the better, ever more even the contact of the cleaning side of the wiping surface over its total active area with the surface to be cleaned. The wiping surface should always be full when cleaning floor and wall surfaces rest on the surface to be cleaned and if possible also on the surface firmer presses to remove stubborn dirt discard or bend. While this requirement in the area of smoothly tensioned holding surface of the stenter is easily met the required stability in the unsupported, protruding edge areas of the floor wiping largely not guaranteed. In the state According to EP 0 630 606 B1, the technology has been proposed, a reinforcement made of cord or wire-like material in the To pull in the wiping surface. Firstly, the wiping surface known from it still outwardly protruding, unreinforced edge areas, for others such reinforcement only increases the Flexural rigidity of the linear outer edge, but not the surface of the protruding area transversely to the outer edge. As an alternative measure for reinforcement it is known from EP 0 664 100 A1, the edges of the Turn the floor mop cover over onto the top and sew it there or to glue. However, the textile material of the mop is - also for Ensuring a good cleaning effect - relatively flexible in itself or slack. Through the essentially linear seams or Therefore, glued seams will at most increase the dimensional stability in the direction of the seam, i.e. reached in the edge direction. In the transverse direction, experience has shown that this is particularly due to the forces that occur when wiping Tends to undesirable deflection or warping, is the stiffness however not sufficient. Even the doubled textile material there has only low inherent rigidity in its outer edge areas.
Angesichts dieser Problematik liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabenstellung zugrunde, einen textilen Bodenwischbelag mit den eingangs genannten Merkmalen zur Verfügung zu stellen, der in seinen seitlich über die Haltefläche des Spannrahmens überstehenden Randbereichen eine verbesserte Eigensteifigkeit und Formbeständigkeit hat, und zwar sowohl in Kantenrichtung, als auch quer dazu.In view of this problem, the task of the present invention lies based on a textile floor wiping covering with the entrance to provide the features mentioned, which in its laterally over the retaining surface of the tenter protruding edge areas improved Has inherent rigidity and dimensional stability, both in Edge direction, as well as transverse to it.
Zur Lösung dieser Problematik schlägt die Erfindung vor, daß entlang der Randbereiche zumindest teilweise flächige Versteifungsstreifen fest auf dem Textilmaterial angebracht sind.To solve this problem, the invention proposes that along the Edge areas at least partially flat stiffening strips firmly on the Textile material are attached.
Die erfindungsgemäßen Versteifungsstreifen bilden flächige Verstärkungselemente, welche auf der Rückseite des Bodenwischbelags in den über die Haltefläche des Spannrahmens vorstehenden Randbereichen auf dem Textilmaterial fixiert sind.The stiffening strips according to the invention form flat reinforcement elements, which on the back of the floor wiping in the over the Holding surface of the tenter protruding edge areas on the Textile material are fixed.
Ein besonderer Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung besteht darin, daß das in sich biegeweiche Textilmaterial des Bodenwischbelags durch die Versteifungsstreifen flächig abgestützt wird, d.h. dessen Biegesteifigkeit sowohl längs als auch quer zur Kantenerstreckung erhöht wird. Im Gegensatz zu den bisher bekannten, linienförmigen Verstärkungen in Form von Nähten oder Stäben, erhalten die Randbereiche somit erstmals flächig eine erhöhte Eigenstabilität und Formsteifigkeit.A particular advantage of the configuration according to the invention is that that the flexible material of the floor mop by the Stiffening strip is supported flat, i.e. its bending stiffness is increased both longitudinally and transversely to the edge extension. In contrast to the previously known, linear reinforcements in the form of For seams or rods, the edge areas are given a flat surface for the first time increased inherent stability and dimensional stability.
Die erhöhte Biegesteifigkeit wird im wesentlichen durch die mechanischen Eigenschaften der Versteifungsstreifen bestimmt. Folglich kann das Textilmaterial besonders vorteilhaft im Hinblick auf seine Reinigungseigenschaften, wie Oberflächenstruktur, Saugfähigkeit oder sonstige Parameter optimiert werden, ohne dabei Kompromisse eingehen zu müssen bezüglich seiner mechanischen Stabilität. Dieser Aspekt ist insofern von besonderer Bedeutung, als daß diesbezüglich bei den im Stand der Technik bekannten Versteifungsmethoden ein gewisser Zielkonflikt vorliegt: Einerseits muß nämlich das textile Material des Bodenwischbelags relativ biegeweich sein, damit es sich am Rand ein- oder mehrfach umfalten und vernähen läßt. Andererseits soll es jedoch möglichst formstabil sein, damit die Ränder satt aufliegen und sich nicht durchbiegen oder verwerfen. Die vorliegende Erfindung ermöglicht aus den vorgenannte Gründen hierfür erstmals einen schlüssigen und konsequenten Lösungsansatz. The increased bending stiffness is essentially due to the mechanical Properties of the stiffening strips determined. Consequently, that can Textile material particularly advantageous in terms of its cleaning properties, such as surface structure, absorbency or other parameters can be optimized without having to compromise its mechanical stability. In this respect, this aspect is special Significance than in this regard in those known in the prior art Stiffening methods there is a certain conflict of goals: On the one hand, must namely the textile material of the floor wiping be relatively flexible, so that it can be folded over and sewn on the edge one or more times. On the other hand, it should be as stable as possible so that the edges are full lie on and do not bend or warp. The present invention enables one for the first time for the aforementioned reasons conclusive and consistent approach.
Vorzugsweise sind die Versteifungsstreifen in etwa so breit wie die Randbereiche. Diese werden damit über ihre gesamte Breite flächig abgestützt. Wenn sich die Versteifungsstreifen über die Länge der Randbereiche erstrecken, d.h. entlang einer Kante durchgehend sind oder auch um den gesamten Außenrand umlaufen, wird die Biegesteifigkeit in dieser Richtung ebenfalls optimiert.The stiffening strips are preferably approximately as wide as the edge regions. These are supported across their entire width. If the stiffening strips extend the length of the edge areas extend, i.e. are continuous along an edge or around the edge around the entire outer edge, the bending stiffness in this direction also optimized.
Alternativ ist es natürlich ebenfalls denkbar, Versteifungsstreifen lediglich auf einzelnen Randbereichen bzw. abschnittsweise anzuordnen. Dadurch lassen sich beispielsweise spezielle Kanten- oder Eckversteifungen realisieren.Alternatively, it is of course also conceivable, only stiffening strips to be arranged on individual edge areas or in sections. Thereby For example, special edge or corner stiffeners can be implemented.
Vorzugsweise haben die Versteifungsstreifen eine höhere Biegesteifigkeit als das Textilmaterial des Wischbelags. Diese Formstabilität der Versteifungsstreifen kann durch Auswahl mechanisch weniger nachgiebiger Materialien und/oder eine entsprechende Dimensionierung, beispielsweise hinsichtlich der Materialstärke, praktisch ohne Einschränkungen vorgegeben werden.The stiffening strips preferably have a higher bending stiffness than the textile material of the wiping surface. This dimensional stability of the stiffening strips can be done by selecting mechanically less compliant materials and / or a corresponding dimensioning, for example with regard to the material thickness, practically without restrictions.
Die Versteifungsstreifen können beispielsweise aus textilem Material bestehen. Dieses sollte beispielsweise ein Gewebe oder Vlies mit härteren und/oder dickeren Fasern sein als beim Wischbelag, so daß es eine größere Eigensteifigkeit hat. Zu diesem Zweck sind verrottungsfeste Kunststoffgewebe gut geeignet.The stiffening strips can be made of textile material, for example. For example, this should be a fabric or fleece with harder and / or thicker fibers than the wiping surface, so that it is larger Has inherent rigidity. For this purpose there are rot-proof plastic fabrics well suited.
Alternativ können die Versteifungsstreifen aus einem Filz bestehen. Geeignete Filzmaterialien sind in Materialstärken von mehreren Millimetern erhältlich und haben - insbesondere mit zunehmender Dicke - eine gute Formbeständigkeit. Dabei hat es dennoch eine innere Dämpfungswirkung, so daß die Gefahr von Beschädigungen von Möbeln oder Fußleisten bei der Benutzung des Bodenwischbelags verringert wird. Darüber hinaus läßt sich Filz gut konfektionieren und verarbeiten, beispielsweise vernähen, ist verrottungsfest und ist in gewissem Maße saugfähig und feuchtigkeitsspeichernd. Für bestimmte Reinigungsanwendungen kann dies durchaus vorteilhaft sein. Darüber hinaus bekommt der vollgesogene Filz ein erhöhtes Eigengewicht, durch das die Ränder satt auf der Bodenoberfläche angedrückt werden.Alternatively, the stiffening strips can consist of a felt. suitable Felt materials are available in material thicknesses of several millimeters and - especially with increasing thickness - have good dimensional stability. It still has an internal damping effect, so that the risk of damage to furniture or baseboards at the Use of the floor wiping is reduced. Beyond that Assembling and processing felt well, for example sewing, is rot-proof and is somewhat absorbent and moisture-storing. This can be advantageous for certain cleaning applications his. In addition, the fully absorbed felt gets an increased Dead weight, through which the edges are firmly pressed onto the floor surface become.
Eine weitere Alternative besteht darin, daß die Versteifungsstreifen aus Kunststoffolie bestehen. Diese hat selbst bei relativ geringer Dicke in aller Regel eine gute Biegeelastizität und Formstabilität. Damit fällt der Wischbelag in den Randbereichen auch mit der erfindungsgemäßen Versteifungseinlage nur unwesentlich dicker aus.Another alternative is that the stiffening strips are made of Plastic film exist. This has everything even with a relatively small thickness Generally good bending elasticity and dimensional stability. The mop will fall in the edge areas also with the stiffening insert according to the invention only slightly thicker.
Die Form- und Biegesteifigkeit der erfindungsgemäßen Verstärkungsstreifen kann dadurch weiter erhöht werden, daß sie Verstärkungsrippen haben. Diese Verstärkungsrippen werden beispielsweise durch in Längs- und/oder Querrichtung bzw. kreuzweise verlaufende Stege gebildet, die mit dem Grundmaterial der Versteifungsstreifen verbunden oder an diesen ausgeformt werden. So können beispielsweise Filzstreifen mit Kunststoffrippen versehen werden oder Kunststoffolienstreifen mit angeformten Rippen oder eingeformten Sicken versehen werden. Ein Vorteil derartiger Verstärkungsrippen liegt darin, daß die Biegesteifigkeit mit lediglich geringem zusätzlichen Materialaufwand in einzelnen Bereichen je nach Bedarf erhöht werden kann.The shape and bending stiffness of the reinforcement strips according to the invention can be further increased by having reinforcing ribs. These reinforcing ribs are, for example, in longitudinal and / or Transverse direction or crosswise webs formed with the Base material of the stiffening strips connected or molded on these become. For example, felt strips with plastic ribs be provided or plastic film strips with molded ribs or molded beads are provided. An advantage of such reinforcing ribs is that the bending stiffness with only little additional Material costs in individual areas can be increased as required.
Zur Befestigung können die Versteifungsstreifen auf dem Textilmaterial des Wischbelags aufgeklebt oder aufgenäht werden. Dank der Formsteifigkeit der Versteifungsstreifen reicht es dabei aus, punktuelle oder linienförmige Verbindungen zwischen den Streifen und dem textilen Material zu erzeugen, so daß die Versteifungsstreifen sicher fixiert sind und nicht verrutschen können. Selbstverständlich kann auch eine flächige Verklebung oder eine mehrfache Vernähung erfolgen, um eine besonders sichere Verbindung zu erzeugen. Es ist gleichfalls denkbar, andere Verbindungsmöglichkeiten zu wählen.The stiffening strips can be attached to the textile material of the Wiping pads are glued or sewn on. Thanks to the stiffness the stiffening strip is sufficient, punctiform or linear To create connections between the strips and the textile material, so that the stiffening strips are securely fixed and do not slip can. Of course, a flat adhesive or a Multiple sewings are made to ensure a particularly secure connection produce. It is also conceivable to use other connection options choose.
Vorteilhaft ist es weiterhin, daß das Textilmaterial des Bodenwischbelags außen um die Versteifungsstreifen nach oben umgeschlagen ist. Dadurch wird sichergestellt, daß der Bodenwischbelag entlang seiner Kanten ebenfalls eine reinigungsaktive Oberfläche hat. Darüber hinaus sind die Versteifungsstreifen besonders sicher eingefaßt und beim Textilmaterial wird ein Ausfransen an den Kanten ohne zusätzliche Umsäumung weitgehend ausgeschlossen.It is also advantageous that the textile material of the floor mop is turned up around the outside of the stiffening strips. Thereby it is ensured that the floor wiping covering along its edges also has an active cleaning surface. In addition, the stiffening strips particularly securely edged and the textile material is a Fraying on the edges is largely impossible without additional hems.
Eine besonderes vorteilhafte Möglichkeit der Befestigung der Verstärkungsstreifen an dem Textilmaterial sieht vor, daß das Textilmaterial an seinem äußeren Rand mit seiner Reinigungsseite am Rand des Versteifungsstreifens befestigt ist und der Versteifungsstreifen nach hinten umgeschlagen auf der Rückseite des Textilmaterials befestigt ist. Diese Anbringung hat den besonderen Vorteil, daß im Randbereich des Bodenwischbelags der Versteifungsstreifen besonders sicher fixiert ist und dabei die Verbindungsnaht an der Außenkante vollständig verdeckt ist und damit geschützt ist gegen Beschädigungen jeder Art.A particularly advantageous possibility of fastening the reinforcement strips on the textile material provides that the textile material on its outer edge with its cleaning side on the edge of the stiffening strip is attached and the stiffening strip folded back on the Back of the textile material is attached. This attachment has the special one Advantage that the stiffening strips in the edge area of the floor mopping covering is particularly securely fixed and the connecting seam on the The outer edge is completely covered and is therefore protected against damage every kind.
Vorzugsweise besteht das Textilmaterial aus einem Trägergewebe, auf dem reinigungsseitig reinigungsaktive Fasern angebracht sind. Während das Trägergewebe beispielsweise aus langlebigem und strapazierfähigem Material bestehen kann, ist auf der Reinigungsseite beispielsweise ein Reinigungsplüsch aus sogenannten Mikrofasern oder dergleichen angebracht, welcher besonders gute Reinigungswirkung hat.The textile material preferably consists of a carrier fabric on which fibers active on the cleaning side are attached. During that Backing fabric, for example, made of durable and hard-wearing material may consist, for example, of a cleaning plush on the cleaning side attached from so-called microfibers or the like, which has a particularly good cleaning effect.
Zweckmäßigerweise hat der Wischbelag einen in etwa rechteckigen Zuschnitt.The wiping surface expediently has an approximately rectangular one Cutting.

angedeuteten - Spannrahmen 2 aufgespannt ist.Figure 1 and Figure 2 show cross sections through the edge region of an inventive
Floor wiping 1 on one - partially
indicated -
Der Bodenwischbelag 1 besteht aus einem Zuschnitt aus relativ biegeweichem
Textilmaterial 3, welches auf seiner außenliegenden Reinigungsseite
mit einem Reinigungsplüsch 3a versehen ist.The floor wiping covering 1 consists of a blank of relatively
Im dargestellten Randbereich ist auf der Rückseite des Textilmaterials 3 ein
erfindungsgemäßer Verstärkungsstreifen 4 befestigt, der in der dargestellten
Ausführungsform beispielsweise ein flächiger Filzstreifen ist.In the edge area shown is on the back of the
In der Ausführung gemäß Figur 1 ist das Textilmaterial um die Außenkante
des Verstärkungsstreifens 4 nach oben herumgeschlagen und im Bereich der
Innenkante des Verstärkungsstreifens mit durchgehenden Nähten 5 fixiert.In the embodiment according to FIG. 1, the textile material is around the outer edge
of the
In der Ausführung gemäß Figur 2 ist das Textilmaterial 3 zunächst an
seinem äußeren Rand mit seiner Reinigungsseite am Rand des Verstärkungsstreifens
4 durch Nähte 5a vernäht bzw. verkettelt. Der Versteifungsstreifen
4 ist dann nach hinten umgeschlagen und mit innenliegenden
Nähten 5 wiederum auf der Rückseite des Textilmaterials 3 befestigt. Der
Versteifungsstreifen 4 erstreckt sich in den dargestellten Beispielen über die
gesamte Breite des Randbereichs, mit dem der Bodenwischbelag 1 seitlich
über den Spannrahmen 2 vorsteht. Damit erfolgt eine flächige Versteifung
über die gesamte Breite des Randbereichs.In the embodiment according to FIG. 2, the
Der innere Rand des Versteifungsstreifens 4 stößt praktisch am äußeren
Rand des Spannrahmens 2 an. Dadurch wird ein Hochklappen des Randbereichs
um die Innenkante des Versteifungsstreifens 4 unterdrückt. Im
Gegensatz zur Verstärkung mit Nähten, bei denen die Randbereiche in unerwünschter
Weise nach oben umklappen können, bringt der erfindungsgemäße
Versteifungsstreifen 4 eine durchgehende Versteifung über die
Haltefläche des Spannrahmens 2 hinaus bis zum äußeren Rand.The inner edge of the
Alternativ kann der Versteifungsstreifen 4 aus Kunststoffolie oder anderen
biegesteifen Materialien bestehen. Zur Befestigung kann alternativ oder
zusätzlich eine Verklebung mit dem Textilmaterial 3 vorgesehen sein.Alternatively, the
Die Darstellungen in Figur 3 bis Figur 6 zeigen eine Ansicht von oben auf einen erfindungsgemäßen Bodenwischbelag 1 wie in Figur 1 bzw. Figur 2. Daraus geht besonders deutlich die Vielseitigkeit bei der Anbringung der erfindungsgemäßen Versteifungsstreifen 4 hervor. Hierzu sind die Versteifungsstreifen in Einbaulage schraffiert angedeutet.The representations in FIGS. 3 to 6 show a view from above a floor mop covering 1 according to the invention as in FIG. 1 or FIG. 2. This shows the versatility in the attachment of the Stiffening strips 4 according to the invention. Here are the stiffening strips hatched in the installed position.
Im einzelnen können die Querkanten des Bodenwischbelags 1 verstärkt sein
(Figur 3) oder die Längskanten (Figur 4). Darüber hinaus ist eine Eckenverstärkung
möglich (Figur 5). Schließlich ist es denkbar, den gesamten
Randbereich umlaufend mit erfindungsgemäßen Versteifungsstreifen 4 zu
versehen (Figur 6). Diese Versteifungsstreifen 4 können entweder aus
einzelnen Streifen oder einstückig ausgebildet sein.In particular, the transverse edges of the floor wiping covering 1 can be reinforced
(Figure 3) or the longitudinal edges (Figure 4). In addition, there is a corner reinforcement
possible (Figure 5). After all, it is conceivable the whole
Edge area all around with stiffening
Bei sämtlichen Ausführungen haben aus Filz bestehende Versteifungsstreifen
4, insbesondere bei der Naßreinigung den Vorteil, daß sie sich voll
Wasser saugen und damit ein erhöhtes Eigengewicht bekommen. Dadurch
liegt der Randbereich beim Bodenwischen besonders satt auf der Bodenfläche
auf.All versions have stiffening strips made of
