Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning device technology, specifically to a mop. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, common cleaning environments, such as homes, classrooms, offices, or meeting rooms, are often furnished with a lot of furniture. Small gaps can easily form between pieces of furniture or between furniture and walls. These gaps may be smaller than a commonly used mop handle, making it difficult for users to effectively clean them. This creates hard-to-clean areas, resulting in incomplete cleaning and hindering daily health management. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a mop to solve the problem in the prior art that users have difficulty effectively cleaning hard-to-clean corners when mopping the floor.

[0004] In a first aspect, this utility model provides a mop, including a mop handle and a flexible mop plate disposed at the bottom end of the mop handle;

[0005] The end of the flexible mop blade is movably connected to the mop handle. When the end moves along the mop handle, the contact area between the flexible mop blade and the surface to be cleaned increases or decreases.

[0006] Beneficial effects: Users can adjust the contact area between the flexible mop blade and the surface to be cleaned by manipulating the end of the flexible mop blade on the mop handle. This allows the user to reduce the contact area when encountering small gaps, enabling the flexible mop blade to reach into the gaps and avoid dead corners. Conversely, when dealing with larger cleaning areas, the user can increase the contact area by manipulating the end of the flexible mop blade on the mop handle, thus improving cleaning efficiency.

[0007] In one embodiment, the end of the flexible mop blade is slidably connected to the mop handle; when the end slides along the axial direction of the mop handle, the contact area between the flexible mop blade and the surface to be cleaned increases or decreases.

[0008] Beneficial effects: Users can adjust the contact area between the flexible mop blade and the surface to be cleaned by sliding the end of the flexible mop blade on the mop handle, making operation simpler.

[0009] Optionally, when the end of the flexible mop blade slides along the mop handle axis toward the top of the mop handle, the contact area between the flexible mop blade and the surface to be cleaned decreases; when the end of the flexible mop blade slides along the mop handle axis toward the bottom of the mop handle, the contact area between the flexible mop blade and the surface to be cleaned increases.

[0010] Beneficial effects: Users can slide the end of the flexible mop blade along the mop handle axis towards the top of the mop handle to reduce the contact area between the flexible mop blade and the surface to be cleaned; users can also slide the end of the flexible mop blade along the mop handle axis towards the bottom of the mop handle to reduce the contact area between the flexible mop blade and the surface to be cleaned, which conforms to the normal operating sequence and avoids user misoperation.

[0011] In one embodiment, a plurality of counterweights are distributed on the flexible mop board. When the flexible mop board comes into contact with the surface to be cleaned, the counterweights are used to press the flexible mop board onto the surface to be cleaned.

[0012] Beneficial effects: By setting multiple counterweights, the flexible mop board can be pressed and held onto the surface to be cleaned without affecting its deformation, increasing the friction between the flexible mop board and the surface to be cleaned, and improving cleaning efficiency.

[0013] Optionally, multiple counterweights are disposed on the side of the flexible mop board away from the surface to be cleaned; and / or, multiple counterweights are disposed inside the flexible mop board.

[0014] Optionally, the weight of the counterweight closer to the mop handle is less than the weight of the counterweight farther away from the mop handle.

[0015] Beneficial effects: The area of ​​the flexible mop board near the mop handle is supported by the mop handle. If the weight of the counterweight is too heavy, it may make it difficult for the mop handle to move the flexible mop board effectively. On the other hand, the area further away from the mop handle has a larger counterweight, which can prevent the surface from being cleaned effectively due to the lower friction between the flexible mop board at the far end.

[0016] In one embodiment, both ends of the flexible mop board are slidably connected to the mop handle, and when both ends slide along the mop handle, the contact area between the flexible mop board and the surface to be cleaned increases or decreases.

[0017] Beneficial effects: Both ends of the flexible mop board are slidably connected to the mop handle, which can improve the efficiency of adjusting the contact area between the flexible mop board and the surface to be cleaned.

[0018] Optionally, a sleeve is slidably provided on the mop handle, and both ends of the flexible mop blade are connected to the sleeve.

[0019] Beneficial effects: The sleeve can form a grip that is easy for users to hold. Users can hold the sleeve to adjust the position of the two ends of the flexible mop blade on the mop handle. The user operation is simple and the experience is better.

[0020] In one embodiment, a locking structure is provided between the end of the flexible mop blade and the mop handle, the locking structure being used to lock the position of the end on the mop handle;

[0021] And / or, the bottom end of the mop handle is rotatably connected to the flexible mop plate, and the mop handle rotates relative to the flexible mop plate to adjust the shape of the contact surface between the flexible mop plate and the surface to be cleaned, so that the contact area is square, trapezoidal or triangular.

[0022] Beneficial effects: The locking structure locks the position of the flexible mop head's end on the mop handle, thereby locking the contact area between the flexible mop head and the surface to be cleaned. This prevents the contact area from fluctuating during use, which could hinder the user's ability to use the mop effectively in emergencies. And / or, by adjusting the position of the flexible mop head's end on the mop handle to achieve a suitable contact area, the user can rotate the mop handle to adjust the shape of the contact surface between the flexible mop head and the surface to a relatively stable trapezoid or triangle. This prevents deformation of the flexible mop head due to friction during cleaning, further stabilizing the cleaning effect and efficiency of the flexible mop head.

[0023] In one embodiment, both ends of the flexible mop blade are connected to sleeves slidably disposed on the mop handle, and the locking structure is disposed between the sleeves and the mop handle.

[0024] Beneficial effects: The locking structure allows the sleeve to be locked in place on the mop handle, making the locking structure easy to set up and facilitating the large-scale production and manufacturing of mops. Attached Figure Description

[0031] 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.

[0032] In related technologies, commonly used mops cannot clean the gaps between furniture pieces and between furniture and walls, easily creating hard-to-clean areas. Using other specialized tools during cleaning can be inconvenient and reduce cleaning efficiency. However, the mop provided in this embodiment features a flexible mop board with adjustable contact area with the surface to be cleaned, such as the floor. Users can adjust the contact area as needed, achieving the ability to clean both larger areas and smaller gaps.

[0033] The following is combined Figures 1 to 3 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0034] This utility model provides a mop, including a mop handle 10 and a flexible mop plate 20 disposed at the bottom end of the mop handle 10; the end of the flexible mop plate 20 is movably connected to the mop handle 10, and when the end of the flexible mop plate 20 moves along the mop handle 10, the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned increases or decreases.

[0035] Optionally, the surface to be cleaned can be a floor, wall, or building facade, or a tabletop or glass surface, etc. The contact area between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned is the area of ​​the contact surface between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface. Figures 1 to 3 The dashed box H in the figure indicates the contact surface between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned in the three states shown.

[0036] Optionally, the flexible mop plate 20 can be fixedly mounted at the bottom end of the mop handle 10, or it can be rotatably mounted at the bottom end of the mop handle 10. For example, the bottom end of the mop handle 10 can be fixedly or rotatably connected to the center of the flexible mop plate 20, or it can be fixedly or rotatably connected to the other end of the flexible mop plate 20 that is not connected to the mop handle 10.

[0037] Optionally, the end of the flexible mop blade 20 can be rotatably connected to the mop handle 10. When this end rotates circumferentially around the mop handle 10, the contact area between the flexible mop blade 20 and the surface to be cleaned can be adjusted. Specifically, when this end rotates circumferentially around the mop handle 10, it can wrap around the outer circumference of the mop handle 10. Alternatively, the mop handle 10 has a through hole, and the end of the flexible mop blade 20 can pass through this through hole. The user can adjust the contact area between the flexible mop blade 20 and the surface to be cleaned by adjusting the size of the portion of the end protruding from the other side of the through hole. Specifically, the user can pull on the portion of the flexible mop blade 20 protruding from the other side of the through hole; the larger the protruding portion, the smaller the contact area between the flexible mop blade 20 and the surface to be cleaned, and vice versa.

[0038] In this way, the user can adjust the contact area between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned by manipulating the position of the end of the flexible mop board 20 on the mop handle 10. When encountering small gaps, the user can reduce the contact area between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned by manipulating the position of the end of the flexible mop board 20 on the mop handle 10, making the contact area smaller so that the flexible mop board 20 can reach into the gaps for cleaning and avoid creating hard-to-clean areas. When encountering larger cleaning areas, the user can increase the contact area between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned by manipulating the position of the end of the flexible mop board 20 on the mop handle 10, making the contact area larger and improving cleaning efficiency.

[0039] In one embodiment, the end of the flexible mop plate 20 is slidably connected to the mop handle 10; when the end slides along the axial direction of the mop handle 10, the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned increases or decreases.

[0040] For example, the end of the flexible mop plate 20 can be slidably connected to the mop handle 10 radially or slidably connected to the mop handle 10 circumferentially.

[0041] For example, the mop handle 10 may have a groove along its radial direction, and the end of the flexible mop plate 20 may have a slider that cooperates with the groove. When the slider moves along the groove, the end of the flexible mop plate 20 moves radially along the mop handle 10, so that part of the flexible mop plate 20 detaches from the surface to be cleaned to reduce the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned, or part of the flexible mop plate 20 falls back to the surface to be cleaned to increase the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned.

[0042] Alternatively, the mop handle 10 may have a groove along its circumference, and the end of the flexible mop plate 20 may have a slider that cooperates with the groove. When the slider moves along the groove, the end of the flexible mop plate 20 moves circumferentially along the mop handle 10, causing part of the flexible mop plate 20 to detach from the surface to be cleaned, thereby reducing the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned, or causing part of the flexible mop plate 20 to fall back onto the surface to be cleaned, thereby increasing the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned. Specifically, the groove along the circumference of the mop handle 10 may be a spiral groove or an annular groove.

[0043] When using the mop, the user can adjust the contact area between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned by sliding the end of the flexible mop board 20 on the mop handle 10, making the operation more convenient.

[0044] Optionally, when the end of the flexible mop plate 20 slides along the axial direction of the mop handle 10 toward the top of the mop handle 10, the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned decreases; when the end of the flexible mop plate 20 slides along the axial direction of the mop handle 10 toward the bottom of the mop handle 10, the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned increases.

[0045] For example, the mop handle 10 may be provided with a groove along its axial direction, and the end of the flexible mop plate 20 may be provided with a slider that cooperates with the groove. When the slider moves along the groove, the end of the flexible mop plate 20 moves along the axial direction of the mop handle 10, so that part of the flexible mop plate 20 is detached from the surface to be cleaned to reduce the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned, or part of the flexible mop plate 20 falls back to the surface to be cleaned to increase the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned.

[0046] Alternatively, a sleeve 30 can be provided on the mop handle 10, and the end of the flexible mop plate 20 can be connected to the sleeve 30. When the sleeve 30 slides along the mop handle 10, it causes the end of the flexible mop plate 20 to slide axially along the mop handle 10, so that part of the flexible mop plate 20 detaches from the surface to be cleaned to reduce the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned, or part of the flexible mop plate 20 falls back to the surface to be cleaned to increase the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned.

[0047] In use, the user can slide the end of the flexible mop board 20 along the mop handle 10 axis toward the top of the mop handle 10 to reduce the contact area between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned; the user can also slide the end of the flexible mop board 20 along the mop handle 10 axis toward the bottom of the mop handle 10 to reduce the contact area between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned, which conforms to the user's usual operating sequence and avoids user misoperation.

[0048] In one embodiment, a plurality of counterweights 201 are distributed on the flexible mop board 20. When the flexible mop board 20 comes into contact with the surface to be cleaned, the counterweights 201 are used to press the flexible mop board 20 onto the surface to be cleaned.

[0049] Optionally, the counterweight 201 can be made of metallic materials such as lead, iron, or copper, or non-metallic materials such as hard silicone or hard rubber. The counterweight 201 can be a cube, a sphere, or a sheet.

[0050] Optionally, the plurality of counterweights 201 can be evenly distributed on the flexible mop board 20, so that the force applied by the counterweights 201 to the flexible mop board 20 evenly covers the contact surface of the flexible mop board 20 with the surface to be cleaned. Alternatively, the plurality of counterweights 201 can also be distributed on the edge of the flexible mop board 20 to prevent the edge of the flexible mop board 20 from lifting up during use and affecting the use effect.

[0051] For example, such as Figure 3 As shown, since the multiple counterweights 201 are distributed, the flexible mop plate 20 between two adjacent counterweights 201 can still deform. That is, setting counterweights on the flexible mop plate 20 does not affect its flexibility or deformation. When the end of the flexible mop plate 20 moves axially along the mop handle 10, causing part of the flexible mop plate 20 to detach from the surface to be cleaned, its counterweights detach from the surface to be cleaned simultaneously with the flexible mop plate 20. There is an arc-shaped transition area between the part of the flexible mop plate 20 detached from the surface to be cleaned and the part of the flexible mop plate 20 in contact with the surface to be cleaned. The arc-shaped transition area may also have counterweights 201. When the end of the flexible mop plate 20 moves axially along the mop handle 10, causing part of the flexible mop plate 20 to fall back onto the surface to be cleaned, its counterweights fall back simultaneously with the flexible mop plate 20, pressing the flexible mop plate 20 that has fallen back onto the surface to be cleaned against the surface to be cleaned, thereby increasing the friction between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned.

[0052] Optionally, multiple counterweights 201 may be disposed on the side of the flexible mop board 20 away from the surface to be cleaned; and / or, multiple counterweights 201 may be disposed inside the flexible mop board 20. For example, multiple mounting positions may be distributed on the side of the flexible mop board 20 away from the surface to be cleaned, and at least one counterweight 201 may be fixedly installed in each mounting position. Alternatively, when manufacturing the flexible mop board 20, the multiple counterweights 201 may be integrally formed into the interior of the flexible mop board 20. For example, multiple steel balls may be distributed evenly within the flexible mop board 20.

[0053] By setting multiple counterweights 201, the flexible mop board 20 can be pressed onto the surface to be cleaned without affecting the deformation of the flexible mop board 20, thereby increasing the friction between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned and improving cleaning efficiency.

[0054] Optionally, the weight of the counterweight 201 closer to the mop handle 10 is less than the weight of the counterweight 201 farther away from the mop handle 10.

[0055] The counterweight 201 is mainly used to hold the flexible mop board 20. The area of ​​the flexible mop board 20 near the mop handle 10 is subjected to a large force from the mop handle 10. As a result, the friction between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned is already large enough without the counterweight 201 holding it down. Therefore, it is only necessary to set a small counterweight 201 in the area near the mop handle 10 so that the flexible mop board 20 can be laid flat on the surface to be cleaned.

[0056] In areas far from the mop handle 10, the force exerted by the mop handle 10 on this area is relatively small, which is insufficient to create enough friction between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned. Therefore, a counterweight 201 with a larger weight is provided in the area far from the mop handle 10 to increase the friction between this part of the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned.

[0057] Optionally, the weight of the counterweight 201 on the flexible mop board 20 gradually decreases in the direction away from the mop handle 10.

[0058] The area of ​​the flexible mop board 20 near the mop handle 10 is supported by the mop handle 10. If the weight of the counterweight 201 is too large, it may cause the mop handle 10 to have difficulty moving the flexible mop board 20 effectively. On the other hand, the area far from the mop handle 10 has a larger counterweight, which can prevent the surface from being cleaned effectively due to the lower friction between the flexible mop board 20 at the far end and the surface to be cleaned.

[0059] In one embodiment, both ends of the flexible mop plate 20 are slidably connected to the mop handle 10. When both ends slide along the mop handle 10, the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned increases or decreases.

[0060] Optionally, both ends of the flexible mop plate 20 are slidably connected to the mop handle 10. When both ends of the flexible mop plate 20 slide along the circumferential, axial or radial direction of the mop handle 10, the flexible mop plate 20 can detach from or fall back onto the surface to be cleaned with twice the efficiency, which improves the efficiency of adjusting the contact area between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned, resulting in a better user experience.

[0061] Optionally, a sleeve 101 is slidably provided on the mop handle 10, and both ends of the flexible mop plate 20 are connected to the sleeve 101.

[0062] For example, the mop handle 10 is fitted with a sleeve 101 on the outside, and both ends of the flexible mop plate 20 can be connected to the lower edge of the sleeve 101. The outside of the sleeve 101 forms a grip part that is convenient for the user to operate. When using a mop and needing to adjust the contact area between the flexible mop blade 20 and the surface to be cleaned, the user can hold the sleeve 101 and slide it along the mop handle 10. When the user slides the sleeve 101 along the mop handle 10 towards the top of the mop handle 10, the sleeve causes both ends of the flexible mop blade 20 to slide along the mop handle 10 towards the top of the mop handle 10. At this time, part of both ends of the flexible mop blade 20 detaches from the surface to be cleaned, that is, the contact area between the flexible mop blade 20 and the surface to be cleaned decreases. When the user slides the sleeve 101 along the mop handle 10 towards the bottom of the mop handle 10, the sleeve causes both ends of the flexible mop blade 20 to slide along the mop handle 10 towards the bottom of the mop handle 10. At this time, part of both ends of the flexible mop blade 20 falls back onto the surface to be cleaned, that is, the contact area between the flexible mop blade 20 and the surface to be cleaned increases.

[0063] When in use, the sleeve 101 can form a grip that is easy for the user to hold. The user can hold the sleeve 101 to adjust the position of both ends of the flexible mop board 20 on the mop handle 10. The user operation is simple and the experience is better.

[0064] In one embodiment, a locking structure 30 is provided between the end of the flexible mop plate 20 and the mop handle 10, the locking structure 30 being used to lock the position of the end of the flexible mop plate 20 on the mop handle 10.

[0065] Optionally, the end of the flexible mop plate 20 is provided with an annular silicone ring, which is fitted onto the outside of the mop handle 10. The user can adjust the position of the end of the flexible mop plate 20 on the mop handle 10 by pulling the silicone ring and sliding it along the mop handle 10. Then, the end of the flexible mop plate 20 is fixed in this position by the friction between the silicone ring and the mop handle 10. At this time, the silicone ring is a locking structure.

[0066] Alternatively, the mop handle 10 may have a groove, and the end of the flexible mop plate 20 may have a slider. The side or bottom wall of the groove may have multiple slots, and the slider may have protrusions. Sliding the slider along the groove adjusts the position of the end of the flexible mop plate 20 on the mop handle 10. When the protrusions on the slider engage with different slots in the groove, the end of the flexible mop plate 20 can be fixed at different positions on the mop handle 10. In this case, the protrusions on the slider and the slots in the groove form a locking structure.

[0067] The position of the end of the flexible mop board 20 on the mop handle 10 can be locked by the locking structure 30, thereby locking the contact area between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned, and preventing the user from being unable to effectively use the mop in an emergency due to the contact area fluctuating during use.

[0068] Optionally, both ends of the flexible mop plate 20 are connected to the sleeve 101 that is slidably disposed on the mop handle 10, and a locking structure is disposed between the sleeve 101 and the mop handle 10.

[0069] Optionally, the sleeve 101 can be fitted onto the outside of the mop handle 10. One of the inner wall of the sleeve 101 and the outer wall of the mop handle 10 is provided with a groove, and the other with a protrusion. When the user holds the sleeve 101 and slides it along the mop handle 10, the sleeve 101 can cause both ends of the flexible mop plate 20 to slide along the mop handle 10. When the sleeve 101 slides along the mop handle 10 until the protrusion engages with the groove, both ends of the flexible mop plate 20 are locked in position on the mop handle 10. At this point, the groove and the protrusion form a locking structure. For example, the groove can be an annular groove 102, and the protrusion can be an annular protrusion. For instance, the annular groove 102 can be provided on the outer wall of the mop handle 10, and the annular protrusion on the inner wall of the sleeve 101.

[0070] For example, multiple slots can be provided along the axial direction of the mop handle 10. When the protrusion engages with different slots, the two ends of the flexible mop plate 20 are locked at different positions of the mop handle 10.

[0071] The locking mechanism secures the sleeve to the mop handle, making the locking mechanism easy to set up and facilitating the mass production and manufacturing of mops.

[0072] In one embodiment, the bottom end of the mop handle 10 is rotatably connected to the flexible mop plate 20. The mop handle 10 rotates relative to the flexible mop plate 20 to adjust the shape of the contact surface between the flexible mop plate 20 and the surface to be cleaned, so that the contact surface is square, trapezoidal or triangular.

[0073] For example, the flexible mop board 20 is provided with a circular groove, and the end of the mop handle 10 is provided with a ball head structure. The ball head structure is engaged in the circular groove and can slide in the circular groove, so that the mop handle 10 can rotate relative to the flexible mop board 20.

[0074] By adjusting the position of the end of the flexible mop board 20 on the mop handle 10 to adjust the contact area between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned to a suitable state, the user can rotate the mop handle 10 to adjust the shape of the contact surface between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned to a relatively stable trapezoid or triangle. This avoids deformation of the flexible mop board 20 caused by friction between the flexible mop board 20 and the surface to be cleaned during the cleaning process, further stabilizing the cleaning effect and cleaning efficiency of the flexible mop board 20.

[0075] 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.
