Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning tools, specifically to a cleaning tool. Background Technology

[0002] Foldable mop boards are among the most popular cleaning tools on the household goods market. They typically consist of a mop bucket and a mop handle. Existing mop buckets only allow the bent mop board to be placed inside, and the centrifugal force is used to spin and wring water from the surface. For example, Chinese patent application CN201220520683.X discloses a foldable rotating flat mop and its cleaning tool components. This patent discloses that the mop board can be bent to rotate and wring water from the surface within the mop bucket. However, when the surface contains stubborn dirt that cannot be removed by the wringing action, cleaning can only be achieved by repeatedly scraping or squeezing vertically. This makes it difficult for the mop to clean thoroughly. Users must place the mop in a separate mop bucket and repeatedly scrape or squeeze vertically to clean it. Existing mop buckets cannot clean the bent mop board, meaning their cleaning method is limited and cannot meet the diverse needs of users. Utility Model Content

[0003] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0004] This utility model mainly addresses the shortcomings of the existing technology, specifically relating to a cleaning tool that solves the problem of the limited cleaning methods of existing wringer mops.

[0005] (II) Technical Solution

[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides a cleaning tool, including a mop and a mop bucket. The mop includes a mop handle and a mop plate connected to the mop handle. The mop plate has a wiping material on its side away from the mop handle, and the opposite ends of the mop plate can rotate toward its center to enter a cleaning state. The mop bucket includes a bucket body, and the bucket body has at least a first cleaning chamber and a second cleaning chamber. When the mop is in the cleaning state, the mop can move vertically in the first cleaning chamber to clean the wiping material and rotate along its central axis in the second cleaning chamber to clean the wiping material.

[0007] The advantage is that the two cleaning chambers meet different user cleaning needs. When cleaning in the first cleaning chamber, the vertical movement can squeeze or scrape the mop to remove stubborn dirt, thus improving cleaning efficiency. When cleaning in the second cleaning chamber, the rotation can shake out excess water from the mop, allowing it to reach the appropriate level of moisture for mopping more quickly, resulting in higher mopping efficiency and a better user experience. Users can choose to clean in either the first or second cleaning chamber, or vice versa, offering diverse cleaning options.

[0008] In one optional embodiment, the first cleaning chamber is provided with a first cleaning element that scrapes or squeezes the wiping material, so that when the mop is in a cleaning state, the mop can drive the wiping material disposed on the mop board to scrape or squeeze the first cleaning element when the mop moves in the vertical direction.

[0009] The advantage is that by setting the first cleaning element in the first cleaning chamber, the first cleaning element can scrape or squeeze the wiping material during cleaning, making the wiping material cleaner.

[0010] In one alternative embodiment, the first cleaning element extends vertically and its length is at least greater than half the length of the mop board.

[0011] The advantage is that the first cleaning component extends vertically and is positioned along the movement path of the mop board during cleaning, making cleaning easier. When the length of the first cleaning component is greater than half the length of the mop board, the length of the two ends will inevitably be less than half the total length of the mop board because the mop board will bend at both ends during cleaning. This allows the two ends of the mop board to move back and forth relative to the first cleaning component within a certain displacement when the wiping material installed on the mop board is scraped or squeezed for cleaning, so as to repeatedly scrape or squeeze the wiping material, resulting in higher cleaning efficiency and a better user experience.

[0012] In one alternative embodiment, the first cleaning element and / or the mop board are elastically configured such that the wiping material disposed on the mop board is always in contact with the first cleaning element during the cleaning process.

[0013] The advantage is that the flexible setting ensures that the wiping object remains in contact with the first cleaning component throughout the cleaning process, thus facilitating continuous cleaning of the wiping object by the first cleaning component and resulting in higher cleaning efficiency.

[0014] In one alternative embodiment, the first cleaning member has a plurality of scrubbing members on the side opposite to the wiping material.

[0015] The advantage is that the scrubbing part allows the mop board to scrape the object being wiped during movement, resulting in a more thorough cleaning.

[0016] In one alternative embodiment, two first cleaning components are provided, each opposite to one end of the mop board.

[0017] The advantage is that there are two first cleaning components, which correspond to the two ends of the mop board. When the two ends of the mop board are bent, the cleaning material at both ends of the mop board can be cleaned at the same time, improving cleaning efficiency. At the same time, during the cleaning process, the two first cleaning components can apply pressure to the mop board at the same time, and the direction of the pressure is towards the mop handle, making the mop more stable during the cleaning process and providing a better user experience.

[0018] In one alternative embodiment, the two first cleaning components taper toward the bottom of the bucket.

[0019] The advantage is that the first cleaning component retracts towards the bottom of the bucket, which means that when the mop board cleans in the first cleaning chamber along the set direction, the pressure on the wiping material installed on the mop board increases as the mop board is pressed down, resulting in higher cleaning or wringing efficiency and improving the user experience.

[0020] In one optional embodiment, the second cleaning chamber is provided with a support shaft, and the mop plate is provided with a mating end that cooperates with the support shaft. When the mop is in the cleaning state, and the mating end cooperates with the support shaft, the mop is driven to rotate, causing the mop plate to rotate in the second cleaning chamber to shake out the water adhering to the wiping material.

[0021] The advantage is that the second cleaning chamber can accommodate situations where the mop needs to be cleaned by rotation, such as spinning the mop to wring out water. This gives the mop bucket multiple cleaning options for users, resulting in a better user experience. When both the first and second cleaning chambers are set in the mop bucket, the larger size of the mop bucket makes the center of gravity more stable during cleaning, reducing the chance of tipping over.

[0022] In one optional embodiment, the side wall of the second cleaning chamber is provided with a second cleaning component for scraping and cleaning the wiping object, and the mop board drives the wiping object to abut against the second cleaning component for scraping and cleaning during the rotation process.

[0023] The advantage is that by setting up a second cleaning component, when the mop rotates and cleans in the second cleaning chamber, it can effectively scrape or squeeze the wiping material installed on the mop board, making the wiping material cleaner while shaking off the water.

[0024] In one optional embodiment, the mop board includes a connector connected to the mop handle and a secondary plate movably connected to the side opposite the connector. When the mop is in a cleaning state, the secondary plate rotates relative to the connector to make the mop board form an "H" shape, a "U" shape, or an "n" shape.

[0025] The advantage is that when the mop board's sub-plate rotates to an angle with the connector, making the mop board "H", "U", or "n" shaped, it makes it easier for longer mop boards to be used in smaller mop buckets. Smaller mop buckets are advantageous in terms of both cost and transportation. Attached Figure Description

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0035] This utility model provides a cleaning tool, including a mop 1 and a mop bucket 2. The mop 1 includes a mop handle 11 and a mop plate 12 connected to the mop handle 11. The mop plate 12 has a wiping material on its side away from the mop handle 11, and the opposite ends of the mop plate 12 can rotate towards its center to enter a cleaning state. The mop bucket 2 includes a bucket body 20, and the bucket body 20 has at least a first cleaning chamber 21 and a second cleaning chamber 22. When the mop 1 is in the cleaning state, the mop 1 can move vertically in the first cleaning chamber 21 to clean the wiping material and rotate along its central axis in the second cleaning chamber 22 to clean the wiping material.

[0036] Two cleaning chambers are provided to meet different cleaning needs of users. When cleaning in the first cleaning chamber 21, the cleaning agent can squeeze or scrape the cleaning material to remove some stubborn dirt, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency. When cleaning in the second cleaning chamber 22, the mop can rotate to shake out excess water attached to the cleaning material, allowing the mop to reach the appropriate level of moisture for mopping more quickly, resulting in higher mopping efficiency and a better user experience. Users can choose to clean in the first cleaning chamber 21 or the second cleaning chamber 22 according to their needs. Alternatively, users can clean in the first cleaning chamber 21 first and then in the second cleaning chamber 22, or vice versa. The cleaning methods are diversified. In this example, the first cleaning chamber 21 and the second cleaning chamber 22 are preferably arranged adjacent to each other. In this example, the bucket body 20 is preferably provided with one first cleaning chamber 21 and one second cleaning chamber 22. Of course, this solution does not limit the number of the first cleaning chamber 21 and the second cleaning chamber 22.

[0037] Mop 1 is a flat mop, which includes a mop handle 11 and a mop board 12. The mop board 12 is rotatably connected to the mop handle 11, such as by a hinge, so that the mop handle 11 can rotate at different angles relative to the mop board 12 to meet different mopping needs of users. A wiping material is installed on the side of the mop board 12 away from the mop handle 11. In this example, the installation method of the wiping material and the mop board 12 is not limited. The two can be connected by Velcro, buckles, etc. The wiping material is preferably a mop cloth with excellent water absorption so that the wiping material is kept moist and the mopping effect is better.

[0038] The mop plate 12 includes a connector 13 connected to the mop handle 11 and a secondary plate 14 movably connected to the side opposite the connector 13. When the mop 1 is in a cleaning state, the secondary plate 14 rotates relative to the connector 13 to make the mop plate 12 form an "H", "U", or "n" shape. Preferably, in this example, the secondary plate 14 is a separate two-plate structure, and the secondary plate 14 is connected to the connector 13 by a pivot, so that the mop 1 can form a working state in which the secondary plate 14 is parallel to the connector 13 and a cleaning state in which the secondary plate 14 is at an angle to the connector 13. When the secondary plate 14 of the mop plate 12 rotates to an angle with the connector 13, making the mop plate 12 form an "H", "U", or "n" shape, the specific... When the connector 13 is rotatably connected to the center point of the two sub-plates 14, and the two sub-plates 14 rotate 90° around the center point toward the mop handle 11, the mop plate 12 is H-shaped. When the connector 13 is rotatably connected to the ends of the two sub-plates 14, and the two sub-plates 14 rotate 90° around the ends toward the mop handle 11, the mop plate 12 is U-shaped or n-shaped. This makes it easier for the longer mop plate 12 to be used for cleaning in the smaller mop bucket 2. The smaller mop bucket 2 has advantages in terms of both cost and transportation. In this example, the preferred wiping material is installed on the sub-plate. When the mop plate 12 is bent, the wiping material will clean in the mop bucket 2 in a vertical direction.

[0039] Understandably, the mop board 12 can be formed as a single piece, and the mop board 12 is at least partially elastic. The two ends of the mop board 12 rotate toward each other in the direction of the mop handle 11. At the same time, the wiping material installed on the mop board 12 is configured to have elastic properties, and the wiping material can be driven to rotate as the mop board 12 rotates.

[0040] The first cleaning chamber 21 is equipped with a first cleaning element 23 for scraping or squeezing the wiping material. When the mop 1 is in a cleaning state, as the mop 1 moves vertically, it can cause the wiping material on the mop plate 12 to scrape or squeeze against the first cleaning element 23. Specifically, when the mop plate 12 is "H"-shaped or "U"-shaped, the wiping material is located on the outermost side of the mop plate 12, i.e., the side of the mop plate 12 away from the mop handle 11. The first cleaning element 23 is located on the inner wall of the first cleaning chamber 21, facilitating contact and scraping or squeezing of the wiping material against the first cleaning element 23 for cleaning. When the mop plate 12 is "n"-shaped, the first cleaning element 23 is located in the middle of the first cleaning chamber 21, allowing the "n"-shaped mop plate 12 to be matched with the first cleaning element 23. 12 faces the side of the first cleaning element 23, for example, the first cleaning element 23 is formed by extending from the bottom upward in the middle of the first cleaning cavity 21. The first cleaning element 23 has cleaning elements on both sides that cooperate with the wiping material to squeeze or scrape. In this example, the first cleaning element 23 is preferably located on the side wall of the first cleaning cavity 21 and comes into contact with the wiping material attached to the sub-plate 14 in the cleaning state and scrapes or squeezes it to clean it. This example does not limit the installation method of the first cleaning element 23 and the first cleaning cavity 21. The two can be integrally formed or separately formed and then installed. The first cleaning element 23 is set in the first cleaning cavity 21, and the first cleaning element 23 is preferably in the shape of scraping teeth, squeezing wheel, squeezing plate or scraper, so that when the wiping material is cleaned, it can be scraped or squeezed by the first cleaning element 23, so that the wiping material is cleaned more thoroughly.

[0041] In this embodiment, the first cleaning component 23 extends vertically and its length is at least half the length of the mop board 12. Specifically, the first cleaning component 23 extends vertically along the inner wall of the first cleaning cavity 21 and is positioned on the moving path of the mop board 12 during cleaning for easy cleaning. When the length of the first cleaning component 23 is greater than half the length of the mop board 12, since the two ends of the mop board 12 will be bent during cleaning, the length of the two ends will necessarily be less than half the total length of the mop board 12. This allows the two ends of the mop board 12 to move back and forth relative to the first cleaning component 23 within a certain displacement when the wiping material installed on the mop board 12 is scraped or squeezed by the first cleaning component 23 for repeated scraping or squeezing, resulting in more comprehensive cleaning of the wiping material and a better user experience. In this example, the length of the secondary plate 14 is preferably less than the length of the first cleaning component 23, and the length of the first cleaning component 23 is at least 1.5 times the length of the secondary plate 14, so that the secondary plate 14 can repeatedly scrape or squeeze for cleaning within a certain distance range when it moves relative to the first cleaning component 23.

[0042] The first cleaning component 23 and / or the mop board 12 are elastically configured so that the wiping material disposed on the mop board 12 is always in contact with the first cleaning component 23 during the cleaning process. Specifically, the first cleaning component 23 is a separate structural component, and the first cleaning component 23 is an elastic scraper, scraper teeth, or scraper plate, which is installed in the first cleaning cavity 21 by a connecting structure, such as adhesive, buckle, or bolt, as long as it can fix the first cleaning component 23. Even if multiple first cleaning components 23 are retracted from top to bottom in the first cleaning cavity 21, when the mop board 12 moves up and down toward the bottom of the first cleaning cavity 21, the mop board... The first cleaning component 23 will deform along the moving direction of the mop board 12 to scrape or squeeze the dirt on the mop board 12, so that the cleaning material is always in contact with the first cleaning component 23 when the mop board 12 moves. It can be understood that the mop board 12 is made of elastic material, that is, the mop board 12 can deform when subjected to force, so that when the mop board 12 is inserted into the first cleaning cavity 21, which is set from top to bottom and is equipped with multiple first cleaning components 23 for cleaning, as the mop board 12 goes deeper, the mop board 12 is deformed by the action of the first cleaning component 23, so that the cleaning material is always in contact with the first cleaning component 23 when the mop board 12 moves.

[0043] Understandably, when the mop board 12 is "H" or "U" shaped, and the two auxiliary boards 14 are at a certain angle, and when the two auxiliary boards 14 are made of elastic material, when the auxiliary boards 14 enter the relatively narrow first cleaning chamber 21, the first cleaning chamber 21 will compress the auxiliary boards 14 to adjust the angle between the two auxiliary boards 14, so that the auxiliary boards 14 gradually become parallel to the side wall of the first cleaning component 23 set in the first cleaning chamber 21, so that the wiping material installed on the auxiliary boards 14 is always in contact with the first cleaning component 23 when the mop board 12 moves.

[0044] Understandably, an elastic element (not shown in the figure) can also be provided at the connection structure between the first cleaning component 23 and the first cleaning cavity 21, so that the first cleaning component 23 can be translated a certain distance along the driving direction when driven by the mop plate 12. Such an element could be a spring or soft rubber. For example, a through hole can be provided in the first cleaning cavity 21, and the first cleaning component 23 can be placed in the through hole, with the elastic element also placed in the through hole. As the mop plate 12 gradually penetrates into the first cleaning cavity 21, the mop plate 12 will squeeze the first cleaning component 23 to extend, retract, or deflect within the through hole, thereby adjusting the first cleaning component 23. The angle is adjusted so that the mop board 12 and the first cleaning component 23 are in contact; or an elastic element is provided between the first cleaning component 23 and the side wall of the first cleaning cavity 21, so that the first cleaning component 23 rotates at a certain angle in the driving direction when driven by the mop board 12 to adapt to different shapes of the mop board 12, such as a torsion spring; similar structures are not described in detail here. The elastic setting makes the wiping object always in contact with the first cleaning component 23 during the cleaning process, thereby facilitating the first cleaning component 23 to continuously clean the wiping object and making the cleaning efficiency higher.

[0045] Understandably, an elastic element, such as a torsion spring, is provided at the pivot point connecting the sub-plate 14 and the connector 13, so that the sub-plate 14 can be driven to translate a certain distance along the driving direction, or the sub-plate 14 can be driven to rotate a certain angle relative to the connector 13, so as to adjust the angle between the two sub-plates 14 to match the shape of the first cleaning chamber 21, so that the sub-plate 14 and the first cleaning component 23 of the first cleaning chamber 21 remain parallel, so as to ensure that the wiping material always remains in contact with the first cleaning component 23 during the cleaning process.

[0046] It is understandable that an elastic element can be provided at the pivot point where the sub-plate 14 connects to the connector 13, and an elastic element can also be provided between the side wall of the first cleaning component 23 and the first cleaning chamber 21. The principle is the same as above, and will not be elaborated further. As long as it can be achieved that the wiping material is always in contact with the first cleaning component 23 during the cleaning process of the mop 1.

[0047] The first cleaning component 23 has several scrubbing components (not shown in the figure) on the side opposite to the wiping object. Specifically, the scrubbing components can be toothed or have raised dots. This example does not limit the structure of the scrubbing components. The cross-section of the scrubbing components can be circular, polygonal, or irregular, as long as the dirt on the wiping object can be scraped or squeezed out during the contact with the scrubbing components. The first cleaning component 23 has several scrubbing components. For example, several arrayed raised dots are provided on the scraper, so that when the mop board 1 contacts and moves with the first cleaning component 23, the raised dots can scrape the wiping object. Multiple scraping teeth can be provided on the side of the scraper that contacts and scrapes the wiping object to remove hair and other debris. The scrubbing components extend along a direction with a certain angle to the direction of movement of the mop 1. Preferably, the scrubbing components extend along a direction perpendicular to the direction of movement of the mop 1. The scrubbing components can scrape the wiping object, making the wiping object cleaner.

[0048] Furthermore, the first cleaning component 23 may include a connecting rod disposed within the first cleaning chamber. The connecting rod may be integrally formed with the inner wall of the first cleaning chamber 21 or installed separately. The scrubbing component is installed between adjacent connecting rods. The scrubbing component can be mounted on the connecting rod via a pivot. When the wiping material comes into contact with the scrubbing component, the wiping material can move more smoothly relative to the scrubbing component, making it more convenient for the user to operate.

[0049] The first cleaning component 23 is provided in two parts, and is respectively opposite to the two ends of the mop board 12. Specifically, two first cleaning components 23 are provided, which correspond exactly to the two ends of the mop board 12. When the two ends of the mop board 12 are bent, the cleaning material at both ends of the mop board 12 can be cleaned at the same time. Preferably, the two first cleaning components 23 correspond to the two auxiliary boards 14 on the mop 1, which improves cleaning efficiency. At the same time, during the cleaning process, the two first cleaning components 23 can simultaneously apply pressure to the mop board 12, and the direction of the pressure is towards the mop handle 11, which makes the mop 1 more stable during the cleaning process and provides a better user experience.

[0050] Specifically, the two first cleaning components 23 tend to contract towards the bottom of the bucket 20. That is, the two first cleaning components 23 form an angle α between them. In this example, α is preferably ≤ 45°. When the angle is too large, it will be more difficult for the user to drive the mop board 12 to abut against the two first cleaning components 23 for cleaning. When the mop board 12 cleans in the first cleaning cavity 21 along the set direction, as the mop board 12 is pressed down, the pressure on the wiping material installed on the mop board 12 increases, and the cleaning or wringing efficiency of the wiping material is higher, thereby improving the user experience.

[0051] Specifically, the second cleaning chamber 22 is provided with a support shaft, and the mop plate 12 is provided with a mating end that cooperates with the support shaft. When the mop 1 is in a cleaning state, and the mating end cooperates with the support shaft, the mop 1 is driven to rotate, causing the mop plate 12 to rotate in the second cleaning chamber 22 to shake out the water adhering to the wiping material. Specifically, the second cleaning chamber 22 is provided to meet the needs of cleaning the mop 1 by rotation, such as rotating the mop 1 to shake out water, so that the mop bucket 2 has multiple cleaning methods for the user to choose from, resulting in a better user experience. The mop bucket 2 is equipped with a first cleaning chamber 21 and a second cleaning chamber 22, which makes the volume of the mop bucket 2 larger. During cleaning, the center of gravity is more stable, which can reduce the occurrence of tipping over. The method of driving the mop 1 to rotate is common in the prior art. For example, it can be achieved by connecting upper and lower rods, which can move relative to each other. The upper and lower rods are equipped with screws. By driving the upper and lower rods to move closer to each other, the screws are driven to rotate, which in turn drives the transmission component that cooperates with the screws to rotate, thereby driving the mop plate 12 connected to the transmission component to rotate. The transmission component is a structure such as a gear. This kind of transmission method is the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0052] The second cleaning chamber 22 has a second cleaning component on its side wall for scraping and cleaning the wiping material. The mop plate 12 drives the wiping material to rotate and come into contact with the second cleaning component for scraping and cleaning. Specifically, the second cleaning component is provided so that when the mop 1 rotates and cleans in the second cleaning chamber 22, it can effectively scrape or squeeze the wiping material installed on the mop plate 12, making the wiping material cleaner while shaking off the water. In this example, the shape of the second cleaning component is not limited, as long as the wiping material can be scraped or squeezed by the second cleaning component when rotating. Preferably, the second cleaning component is made of a flexible material, so that the second cleaning component and the wiping material come into contact more tightly. When the wiping material is rotating, the second cleaning component can always keep in contact with the wiping material and scrape the wiping material to improve cleaning efficiency. The second cleaning component can be a scraper tooth, scraper, squeeze wheel or scraper strip, etc., and the second cleaning component extends vertically along the side wall of the second cleaning chamber 22. The second cleaning component covers the object being wiped during rotation, resulting in higher cleaning efficiency.

[0053] Although embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
