Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning tools, and more specifically, to a special cleaning towel for floor scrubbers. Background Technology

[0002] In the cleaning industry, the combination of floor squeegees and towels is widely used for indoor floor cleaning, especially suitable for scenarios such as hospitals and shopping malls where high standards of corner cleaning are required. In existing technologies, floor squeegee-specific towels typically use a single fiber material or a simple composite structure, connected to the floor squeegee via clips or Velcro. Their core design aims to achieve floor cleaning by combining the rigid structure of the floor squeegee with the absorbent properties of the towel.

[0003] However, traditional towels often use single polyester or cotton fibers for their edges. Over time, due to friction from the floor, washing, and drying, the edge fibers easily deform and curl, creating a raised angle. When cleaning corners and baseboards, the curled edges cannot adhere tightly to the corners, leading to stain residue. Furthermore, existing towel edges lack a rigid support structure, relying solely on the material's inherent strength to resist curling. The strength of the fibers decreases when wet, further exacerbating the curling problem, especially in damp environments where the curling causes significant cleaning failure. Utility Model Content

[0020] Please see Figs. 1-2 As shown, the main body of this embodiment is a special cleaning towel for floor scrubbers. The towel edge 1 consists of a polyester fiber base fabric layer 2, a silicone support layer 12, and a heat-pressed non-woven fabric layer 3 from the inside out. The edge is provided with a sewn pocket 4 extending along the edge length. A rigid plastic strip 5 can be detachably inserted into the sewn pocket 4. The center of the towel is provided with a through hole 8. The two corner positions on the same side of the towel edge 1 are provided with male buckles 6, and the two corner positions on the other side of the towel edge 1 are provided with female buckles 7 that cooperate with the male buckles 6.

[0021] Furthermore, the silicone support layer 12 is continuously arranged along the edge 1 of the towel, and its outer surface is bonded to the hot-pressed nonwoven fabric layer 3 by a hot-pressing process.

[0022] Furthermore, the width of the sewn pocket 4 is greater than the width of the hole 9 on its surface for inserting the plastic strip 5. The plastic strip 5 is L-shaped, and its other side extends toward the towel cleaning surface to form a rigid support edge.

[0023] Furthermore, the towel edge 1 has a Velcro strip on the side surface where the sewn pocket 4 is not located. The Velcro strip includes a loop side 10 and a hook side symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the towel. The Velcro strip and the hole 9 are located on the same side of the towel.

[0024] Furthermore, the polyester fiber base fabric layer 2 and the silicone support layer 12 are connected by spaced stitches, with the stitches evenly distributed to fix the position of the silicone strip.

[0025] Furthermore, after the plastic strip 5 is inserted into the sewn pocket 4, the edge 1 of the towel forms a rigid anti-roll structure, and the plastic strip 5 can be removed and replaced separately.

[0026] The edge 1 of this cleaning towel adopts a composite structure of polyester fiber base fabric layer 2, silicone support layer 12, and hot-pressed non-woven fabric layer 3. The inner polyester fiber base fabric layer 2 serves as a skeleton, providing tensile strength and preventing the edge from deforming under stress. The middle silicone support layer 12 has elastic deformation capability, which can offset the curling stress generated by friction with the ground during cleaning and maintain the straight shape of the edge. The outer hot-pressed non-woven fabric layer 3 is tightly bonded to the silicone layer through a hot-pressing process to form a smooth and wear-resistant surface, reducing frictional resistance with the ground and preventing the fibers from loosening.

[0027] The L-shaped rigid plastic strip 5 is a removable L-shaped rigid plastic strip 5 inserted into the pocket 4. One side of the strip is embedded in the pocket for fixation, while the other side extends towards the cleaning surface of the towel to form a rigid support edge. When cleaning corners (such as wall corners and baseboards), this support edge physically and rigidly flattens the edge 1 of the towel, eliminating the edge curling caused by long-term use of traditional towels, ensuring that the edge fits tightly against the cleaning surface, and preventing stains from remaining.

[0028] The polyester fiber base fabric layer 2 and the silicone support layer 12 are connected by evenly distributed spaced stitches to prevent the silicone layer from shifting during cleaning or friction, ensuring that the three-layer structure always maintains its integrity and extending the service life of the edge anti-rolling effect.

[0029] The through hole 8 in the center of the towel is used to fit the floor scraper rod, achieving initial positioning and ensuring the relative position of the towel and the floor scraper is stable.

[0030] The male buckle 6 on the same side of the edge and the female buckle 7 on the other side of the edge engage to pull the towel taut on both sides and fix it to the edge of the floor scraper, preventing it from shifting laterally during cleaning.

[0031] In addition, the side surface without sewn pocket 4 has a symmetrically arranged napped surface 10 and hook-and-loop Velcro strip along the central axis, which can be attached to further enhance the tightness between the short side of the towel and the floor scraper surface, especially suitable for the attachment needs of curved or irregularly shaped floor scrapers.

[0032] The rigid anti-roll structure formed by the L-shaped plastic strip 5, combined with the elastic deformation capability of the silicone support layer 12, allows the towel to maintain edge fit through rigid support when in contact with floors of varying flatness, while also adapting to minor bumps and depressions through elasticity, thus improving cleaning coverage.

[0033] Detailed usage process Insert the L-shaped plastic strip 5 into the sewn pocket 4, and put the towel on the floor scraper through the central through hole 8. Fold the towel in half and align the male buckle 6 and female buckle 7 to fasten and fix the two sides of the towel. Adjust the position of the towel to ensure that the edges are flat. Attach the Velcro strip 10 to the hook side to fix the shorter side of the towel.

[0034] When pushing the floor squeegee during flat cleaning, the towel body is positioned through the central through hole 8 and fixed by the male and female buckles 7, moving synchronously with the squeegee bar; the Velcro strip ensures that there are no gaps between the towel and the floor squeegee surface, avoiding cleaning omissions caused by loosening; the three-layer composite edge naturally adheres to the ground under the action of the silicone support layer 12, and with the hidden support of the L-shaped plastic strip 5, it can achieve efficient cleaning of large areas.

[0035] When cleaning corners or baseboards, align the L-shaped plastic strip 5 of the towel edge 1 with the corner. The rigid support edge forces the towel edge 1 to fit tightly against the corner gap. The silicone support layer 12 deforms slightly with pressure, filling the tiny gaps in the corner and ensuring that the stains are absorbed and removed by the heat-pressed non-woven fabric layer 3.

[0036] In addition, this towel can be washed by removing the plastic strip 5, making maintenance simple.

[0037] This utility model achieves the core objectives of "edge anti-rolling, tight fit, and easy maintenance" through structural innovation, making it particularly suitable for scenarios with high requirements for corner cleaning, such as hospitals and shopping malls. The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit its scope. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within its protection scope.
