  The urging member 8 is disposed in the connecting portion 7 and urges the support plate 4 and the sheet pressing member 5 toward the closed position. As the urging member 8, a metal torsion coil spring used for clothespins or the like is used.

Next, a method for attaching the cleaning sheet 3 to the cleaning tool 1 will be described with reference to FIGS.
First, when the cleaning sheet 3 is attached to the cleaning tool 1, the opening / closing operation assisting unit 42 is held by pinching the opening / closing operation assisting unit 42 and the opening / closing operation unit 52 while placing the thumb on the opening / closing operation assisting unit 42 and the index finger on the opening / closing operation unit 52. And the opening / closing operation part 52 is made to approach. Then, the sheet pressing member 5 moves from the closed position shown in FIG. 4 to the open position shown in FIG. 5 against the urging force of the urging member 8.

  Next, the cleaning sheet 3 is disposed on the lower surface 21 of the cleaning member mounting portion 2, and the end portion side of the cleaning sheet 3 is disposed on the upper surface 44 side of the support plate 4.

  Next, the force pinching the opening / closing operation assisting portion 42 and the opening / closing operation portion 52 is removed, the sheet pressing member 5 is moved from the open position shown in FIG. 5 to the closed position shown in FIG. It is sandwiched between the upper surface of the opening 51 of the sheet pressing member 5. Thereby, the cleaning sheet 3 is arrange | positioned in the position which covers the lower surface 21 and the side surface 22 of the cleaning member attaching part 2 at least.

  According to the cleaning tool 1 of this embodiment demonstrated above, there exist the following effects.

  (1) The support plate 4 having an outer shape larger than the outer shape of the cleaning member mounting portion 2 is disposed on the upper surface 24 of the cleaning member mounting portion 2. Further, the sheet pressing member 5 is arranged on the lower surface 46 side of the support plate 4, and is configured to be movable to the support plate 4 and the sheet pressing member 5 by the connecting portion 7 and the urging member 8 to the closed position or the open position. Thereby, even if the side surface 22 side of the cleaning member mounting portion 2 around which the cleaning sheet 3 is wound is used, the sheet pressing member 5 does not come into direct contact with dirt, and thus the sanitary condition of the cleaning tool 1 can be improved. .

  (2) The support plate 4 and the sheet pressing member 5 are configured in an elliptical shape in plan view, and the gripping portion 6 is extended to the one end 41 side in the long axis direction LD of the support plate 4. Further, the connecting portion 7 is arranged on the one end 41 side in the long axis direction LD of the support plate 4. As a result, it becomes easy to move the cleaning member mounting portion 2 around which the sheet-like member is wound to a narrow dirt spot, and the contact area of the sheet pressing member 5 that presses the sheet-like member can be increased.

  (3) The gripping part 6 was attached to a substantially central part on the upper surface of the support plate 4. Thereby, force is suitably applied to the entire surface of the cleaning sheet 3 disposed on the lower surface of the cleaning member mounting portion 2.

  (4) The sheet pressing member 5 includes the opening / closing operation unit 52. Accordingly, the sheet pressing member 5 can be easily moved to the closed position or the open position.

  (5) The thickness of the cleaning member mounting portion 2 is 3 mm to 50 mm. Thereby, even when the cleaning member mounting portion 2 to which force is applied is compressed in the height direction HD, the sheet pressing member 5 can be prevented from coming into direct contact with dirt.

The preferred embodiment of the present invention has been described above, but the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be modified as appropriate.
For example, in the present embodiment, the sheet pressing member 5 includes the opening 51, but is not limited thereto. That is, the sheet pressing member is formed by cutting out from the front end side to the base end side of the sheet pressing member, and the cleaning member mounting portion includes a cutout portion that can move in the height direction HD. Also good.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, although the support plate 4 and the holding part 6 were comprised by another member, it is not restricted to this. That is, you may comprise a support plate and a holding part by integral molding.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, although the support plate 4 was comprised including the opening / closing operation auxiliary | assistance part 42, it is not restricted to this. That is, as shown in FIG. 6, the grip portion 6 may be configured so as to produce an effect in the long axis direction LD from one end 41 of the support plate 4. Thereby, the holding part 6 can be used also as an opening / closing operation auxiliary part.
