Cleaning tool and method of manufacturing cleaning part thereof

Abstract

It is an object of the present invention to provide a cleaning tool that exhibits adequate cleaning performance even in the cleaning of narrow crevices. The cleaning tool of the present invention comprises a cleaning component and a handle component, wherein the cleaning component is designed such that a sheet-like fiber bundle and a sheet are joined to produce a sheet laminate having a joining portion, this sheet laminate is bent along the joining portion to form a bulky component formation portion, the sheet laminate in which said bulky component formation portion has been formed is bent so that bulky component formation portions are across from each other, and integrated such that the contact surfaces of the opposing sheet-like fiber bundles are joined together, and support rods of the handle component are inserted into a handle insertion component having handle insertion openings made at one end of the bulky component formation portions and formed inside the bulky component formation portion.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a cleaning tool comprising a cleaning component and a handle component, and to a method for manufacturing a cleaning component for said cleaning tool. [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0004] Dusters have been used in the past as cleaning tools for removing dust that builds up on chests and other such furniture; computers, lighting devices, and other such electrical products; and interior walls, thresholds and sills, and so forth. A duster is constructed such that a plurality of cord-like bands are attached to the distal end of a handle component, and the surface of a dusty object is hit with the cord-like bands to remove the dust. Therefore, a conventional duster had no wiping function, so it was unable to remove dust without scattering it into the air. [0005] Proposals that have been made in order to help solve this drawback to dusters include a cleaning tool in which a clea...
