Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of cleaning products technology, and in particular to a cleaning mop. Background Technology
[0002] As people's living standards continue to improve, their requirements for home hygiene are also increasing. Whether in rural or urban areas, most families now have tiled floors. Tiled floors are flat, shiny, and have a good decorative effect, making them very popular. To maintain a clean home environment, each household is equipped with a mop for cleaning. However, existing mops have a relatively simple structure, resulting in most cleaning situations requiring only wet mopping. Dry mopping generates a lot of dust, and wet mopping has poor water retention capacity, failing to meet the requirements of both dry and wet mopping simultaneously. Therefore, this application proposes a cleaning mop to solve these problems. Summary of the Invention

[0018] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this application embodiment provides a cleaning mop, including: a base layer 1, the two sides of the base layer 1 are cut to form a plurality of first strips 11, and the side of the first strips 11 near the cleaning layer 2 is provided with fluff 5; Cleaning layer 2 is provided on one side of base layer 1, and a connecting part 4 is provided along the center line of cleaning layer 2. The connecting part 4 is fixedly connected to base layer 1. Several second strip-shaped parts 21 are formed by cutting the two sides of cleaning layer 2. The cleaning layer 2 includes at least one cleaning layer 22, a dust-absorbing layer 23, and a friction layer 24. The middle parts of the cleaning layer 22, the dust-absorbing layer 23, and the friction layer 24 are connected and fixed to each other along the center line to form the cleaning layer 2. The second strip-shaped portions 21 formed by the two side edges of the cleaning layer 22, the dust-absorbing layer 23, and the friction layer 24 are randomly interlaced.
[0019] In this embodiment, both the base layer 1 and the cleaning layer 2 are rectangular. In other embodiments, the base layer 1 and the cleaning layer 2 can also be circular, elliptical, regular polygonal, etc. The width of the base layer 1 is greater than the width of the cleaning layer 2. When connecting, the center line of the cleaning layer 2 in the length direction coincides with the center line of the base layer 1 in the length direction. The length of the first strip 11 is less than or equal to the distance H1 from one side edge of the base layer 1 to the same side edge of the cleaning layer 2. The length of the second strip 21 is less than or equal to the distance H2 from one side edge of the cleaning layer 2 to the same side edge of the connecting part 4. Base layer 1 is composed of non-woven fabric, spunlace non-woven fabric, and microfiber yarn stacked together. The edges of the non-woven fabric, spunlace non-woven fabric, and microfiber yarn are connected together by ultrasonic welding. Non-woven fabric is obtained by bonding fibers (polypropylene PP or polyester PET) together by chemical, thermal, or mechanical means. It has the characteristics of low cost, light weight, fast drying, no lint shedding, and certain oil absorption. Spunlace non-woven fabric is made by using extremely fine high-pressure water jets to puncture the fiber web, causing the fibers to entangle and bind together to form a strong fabric. Then, during or before and after the hydroentangling process, regular or random permeable holes are formed on the fabric surface through special processes (such as embossing rollers, vacuum suction, or water needle arrangement) to obtain spunlace non-woven fabric. Spunlace non-woven fabric allows water and dust to penetrate quickly. The diameter of the microfiber yarn is less than 0.3 denier, which is about 1 / 100 of a human hair. The microfiber yarn generates static electricity when rubbed against the ground, which can attract fine dust and hair. The cleaning layer 22 is made of PP wood pulp nonwoven fabric, which is a nonwoven fabric made from natural wood pulp as the main raw material through nonwoven fabric processes such as spunlace. PP wood pulp nonwoven fabric contains a large number of hydrophilic groups (hydroxyl groups), which can quickly absorb and lock in a large amount of moisture. Its moisture absorption is far superior to that of synthetic fibers such as cotton and polyester, which can better meet the requirements of wet mopping. The material of the dust-absorbing layer 23 is polyester jacquard non-woven fabric. Polyester jacquard non-woven fabric is made by directly bonding polyester fibers into fabric through hot rolling, chemical bonding or needle punching, rather than traditional spinning and weaving. Then, it is pressed by rollers with concave and convex patterns to form permanent, three-dimensional patterns or textures on the fabric surface. Polyester easily generates static electricity when rubbed, which can actively attract dust particles with opposite charges. When dry mopping, it can intercept and lock in the dust to prevent dust from spreading. The friction layer 24 is made of mesh / waffle microfiber cloth, thickened cotton canvas, rough towel cloth or nylon mesh cleaning cloth. The common feature of these cloths is that the surface is rough, which can increase the friction with the ground, thereby achieving a powerful cleaning effect. It can wipe or scrape off stubborn stains, and also has a certain water retention capacity, so it can clean stubborn stains in both dry and wet mopping. The second strip 21 formed by the two sides of the cleaning layer 22, the dust-absorbing layer 23, and the friction layer 24 are randomly interlaced to form a three-dimensional shape. When mopping, the dust-absorbing layer 23, the friction layer 24, and the second strip 21 of the cleaning layer can all come into contact with the ground, improving the cleaning effect. The fluff 5 consists of multiple strands of microfiber yarn segments, which are formed by cutting the fiber yarns. The middle part of the fiber yarn segment is ultrasonically welded to the first strip part 11, so that the yarns at both ends of the fiber yarn segment are dispersed to form fluff 5. During the cleaning process, static electricity is generated when the fiber yarns rub against the ground, which can attract dust. At the same time, the multiple strands of microfiber yarns intertwine to form an interwoven net, which can intercept dust and prevent dust from scattering when dry mopping. The ends of these microfiber yarns can penetrate deep into tiny crevices in the ground to carry out fine dust and particles hidden therein. In addition, the length of the fibers is designed to be 5-8 millimeters, which ensures sufficient contact area with the ground without causing hair to get tangled during cleaning due to excessive length. Specifically, during contact with the ground, each strip can bend and deform at multiple angles along the direction of the mop's movement, like countless tiny elastic tentacles. This allows it to reach deep into the grooves, crevices, and other recesses of the ground for cleaning, while also forming multi-directional wiping tracks on a flat surface to avoid cleaning dead corners. At the same time, this disordered and interwoven three-dimensional structure allows the different functions of the second strips 21 to work together. The second strips 21 of the cleaning layer first absorb moisture from the ground, followed by the second strips 21 of the dust-absorbing layer 23 to capture the dust and residual microparticles, while the second strips 21 of the friction layer 24 specifically wipe and scrape away stubborn stains. The three work together to achieve comprehensive coverage of the ground from initial cleaning to deep cleaning. In addition, the three-dimensional structure of the second strips 21 can also produce a certain "massage" effect on the ground during mopping, which helps to loosen the dried stains attached to the ground, further improving the overall cleaning ability and cleaning effect. This application incorporates a cleaning layer 22, a dust-absorbing layer 23, a friction layer 24, and a pile 5. The dust-absorbing layer 23 and the pile 5 on both sides can absorb dust during dry mopping to prevent dust from spreading. The cleaning layer can store water during wet mopping, and the friction layer 24 can wipe or scrape off stubborn stains. At the same time, each layer of cloth is set in strips, and the first strip 11 and the second strip 21 are arranged in an alternating manner to ensure the cleaning ability and cleaning effect of the mop during cleaning, thus meeting the requirements of both dry and wet use.
[0020] In one embodiment, the arrangement order of the cleaning layer 22, the dust-absorbing layer 23, and the friction layer 24 can have multiple combinations.
[0021] In this embodiment, the cleaning layer 22 includes a first cleaning layer 221 and a first cleaning layer 222, a dust-absorbing layer 23 is located between the first cleaning layer 221 and the first cleaning layer 222, and a friction layer 24 is located between the first cleaning layer 222 and the base layer 1. The cleaning layer 22, the dust-absorbing layer 23 and the friction layer 24 are ultrasonically welded together.
[0022] In one embodiment, a polymer dust-free paper 12 is disposed within the base layer 1.
[0023] In this embodiment, the polymer cleanroom paper 12 is sandwiched between the nonwoven fabric and the spunlace nonwoven fabric. The polymer cleanroom paper 12 can quickly absorb 15 times the amount of dirty water inside the product and lock it in, so that the nonwoven fabric strips that actually work on the surface can work for a long time without cross-contamination.
[0024] In one embodiment, a hot melt adhesive 3 is provided along the center line in the middle of the cleaning layer 2, and the cleaning layer 2 and the base layer 1 are connected and fixed by hot melt adhesive 3.
[0025] In this embodiment, the hot melt adhesive 3 can form a uniform and firm bonding interface between the cleaning layer 2 and the base layer 1, effectively avoiding problems such as edge cracking, water seepage, and fiber shedding during the cleaning process that may be caused by traditional sewing processes. This connection method is not only simple and efficient to operate and suitable for industrial mass production, but also the adhesive layer formed after the hot melt adhesive 3 is cured has a certain degree of flexibility and can deform synchronously with the bending and folding of the mop during the cleaning process. It will not fail due to frequent use, ensuring that the cleaning layer 2 and the base layer 1 work together stably for a long time, further improving the overall structural strength and service life of the cleaning mop. Furthermore, the cleaning layer, the dust-absorbing layer 23, and the friction layer 24 can also be connected and fixed by the hot melt adhesive 3.
[0026] In one embodiment, at least one quick-release member 6 is also included, which is disposed on the other side of the base layer 1 and is used to connect to a mop.
[0027] In this embodiment, the quick-release part 6 is a strip of napped cloth. The quick-release part 6 is fixed to the base layer 1 by ultrasonic welding. This strip of napped cloth quick-release part 6 can form a quick and stable adhesion with the Velcro structure commonly found on mops. Users can connect the mop and the mop with just a light stick. When disassembling, it can be separated by simply tearing. This greatly simplifies the operation steps of replacing the mop and makes it convenient for quick washing in daily use.
[0028] This application also provides a manufacturing process for a cleaning mop, including: Step 1: Base layer preparation. Select PP wood pulp nonwoven fabric and spunlace nonwoven fabric, sandwich polymer dust-free paper between the two, align the edges of the three, and weld the four edges of the stacked materials using ultrasonic welding equipment to form a whole rectangular base layer blank. At the same time, place multiple strands of ultra-fine fiber yarn along the length of the base layer on both sides of the base layer, and set a welding point every few centimeters. Use ultrasonic welding to fix the fiber yarn to the base layer. During welding, control the ultrasonic frequency to 20-30kHz and the welding pressure to 0.3-0.5MPa to ensure that the weld is firm and there is no obvious deformation.
[0029] Step 2: Use precision cutting equipment to cut the two sides of the base material and the fiber yarn to form several first strips of equal or unequal length. The length of the first strip is strictly controlled within the range of less than or equal to the distance H1 from one side edge of the base material to the same side edge of the preset cleaning layer. After cutting, the fiber yarn forms fiber yarn segments. Then, the multi-strand ultra-fine fiber yarn segments are broken apart to form fluff.
[0030] Step 3: Preparation and lamination of cleaning layer materials. Prepare materials for the cleaning layer, dust-absorbing layer and friction layer respectively. The cleaning layer is made of polyester jacquard non-woven fabric. Stack the first cleaning layer, dust-absorbing layer, second cleaning layer and friction layer in sequence from the furthest from the base layer to the closest to the base layer, ensuring that the center of each layer is aligned along the center line.
[0031] Step 4: Cleaning layer forming and cutting. Ultrasonic welding is performed on the middle of the stacked multi-layer materials along the center line to form a connecting part, so that the materials of each layer are connected into one to form a cleaning layer blank. Then, using the same or similar process as the base layer cutting, the two sides of the cleaning layer blank are cut to form several second strips. The length of the second strips must be less than or equal to the distance H2 from one side edge of the cleaning layer to the connecting part. Then, the second strips of each layer are spread out to form a disordered and interlaced shape.
[0032] Step 5: Connect the base layer and the cleaning layer. On the side of the base layer facing the cleaning layer, apply a uniform layer of hot melt adhesive along its center line. The adhesive layer thickness should be 0.1-0.3 mm. Align the cleaning layer with the base layer through the connector, ensuring that the center line of the cleaning layer's length direction completely coincides with the center line of the base layer's length direction. Then, apply appropriate pressure (0.2-0.4 MPa) and heat (the temperature is set according to the type of hot melt adhesive, usually 120-180℃) to melt the hot melt adhesive and fully bond the base layer and the cleaning layer. After the hot melt adhesive cools and solidifies, the two will be firmly connected.
[0033] Step Six: Quick-release component installation. On the opposite side of the base layer from the cleaning layer, fix the strip of napped cloth as a quick-release component using ultrasonic welding. The welding position is usually located on the center line or both sides of the base layer along its length, ensuring that it can effectively cooperate with the Velcro structure on the mop. Step Six can also be completed before the base layer and the cleaning layer are connected.
[0034] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present invention's specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
