A holding force on the cleaning gun that can be generated by the securing unit, in particular the at least one securing element, preferably acts in the direction of a holding position and preferably counter to a removal direction of the cleaning gun from the gun receptacle. In order to bring the cleaning gun into a storage position in the gun receptacle or to remove it from the storage position, a force of substantially 20 N is preferably required.In this context, the fact that a size corresponds at least substantially to a predetermined value should be understood to mean in particular that a deviation from the predetermined value deviates in particular by less than 25%, preferably less than 10% and particularly preferably less than 5% of the predetermined value.
[0013] Furthermore, it is proposed that the gun receptacle have a receptacle central axis which is radially enclosed by the securing unit at least to a large extent, in particular in an angular range of at least 180°, preferably in an angular range of at least 270°, preferably in an angular range of at least 330° and particularly preferably in an angular range of at least 350°. Advantageously, a particularly effective holding force acting on the cleaning gun can be generated.

The receptacle central axis preferably runs at least substantially perpendicular to a main extension plane of a receiving opening of the gun receptacle, in particular the receiving recess. The receptacle central axis is preferably defined by the securing unit.The receiving center axis is preferably an axis through a common center point of the securing elements. “Substantially perpendicular” can be understood as an alignment of a direction relative to a reference direction, wherein the direction and the reference direction, particularly viewed in a projection plane, enclose an angle of 90° and the angle has a maximum deviation of particularly less than 8°, advantageously less than 5°, and particularly advantageously less than 2°. A “main extension plane” of a structural unit or an element can be understood as a plane that is parallel to a largest side surface of the smallest possible imaginary cuboid that just completely encloses the structural unit, and in particular runs through the center point of the cuboid. The gun receptacle preferably has a guide unit for guided insertion of the cleaning gun into the receiving recess.The guide unit preferably has a guide surface that extends at an angle to the receiving center axis. It is conceivable that the guide unit, preferably the guide surface, is formed by the securing unit, in particular the securing elements.
[0014] Furthermore, it is proposed that the securing unit have a uniform shape with respect to a central axis of the gun receptacle, in particular the previously mentioned central axis, in particular to generate a uniform holding force for holding the cleaning gun. This allows for particularly reliable and / or gentle holding of the cleaning gun in the gun receptacle. The shape is defined by the at least one securing element.

The rotation-blocking unit is designed, in particular, to form a positive connection with the rotation-blocking element in order to block the rotation of the cleaning gun about the receiving center axis of the gun receptacle when the cleaning gun is in the storage position in the gun receptacle. The rotation-blocking unit defines, in particular, a relative arrangement of the cleaning gun to the gun receptacle about the receiving center axis in the storage position.The storage position corresponds in particular to a designated final holding position of the cleaning gun in the gun holder.
[0018] Furthermore, it is proposed that the securing unit have a parking position for the cleaning gun, in which the cleaning gun can be rotatably held in the gun receptacle about a central axis of the gun receptacle, in particular the previously mentioned central axis. Advantageously, the cleaning gun can be arranged particularly flexibly on the gun receptacle. This can advantageously achieve a particularly high level of operating convenience. In particular, the rotation-blocking unit does not interact with the rotation-blocking element in the parking position; preferably, the rotation-blocking unit is arranged at a distance from the rotation-blocking element in the parking position. Preferably, the cleaning gun is free from any rotation blockage about the central axis of the gun receptacle by the rotation-blocking unit in the parking position.The parking position is intended as a relatively short-term and / or temporary holding position for the cleaning gun in the gun holder compared to the storage position. In particular, the insertion depth of the cleaning gun in the gun holder differs between the parking position and the storage position. The insertion depth of the cleaning gun in the gun holder is preferably greater in the storage position than in the parking position. Preferably, the holding force exerted by the locking unit is lower in the parking position than in the storage position.
[0019] It is further proposed that the cleaning device comprises a fastening unit for a particularly detachable fastening of a receiving housing, in particular the aforementioned one, of the gun receptacle to an outer housing unit of the cleaning device. Advantageously, the cleaning device can be maintained and / or replaced particularly easily and / or cost-effectively. The fastening unit is particularly intended for fastening the receiving housing to the outer housing unit. The fastening unit is preferably designed as a snap-in connection, a clamp connection, a screw connection, a bayonet connection, or the like.It is conceivable that the fastening unit comprises one or more fastening elements, for example clamping elements, locking elements, in particular locking hooks, locking recesses or the like, screw bosses, screws, or other fastening means deemed appropriate by a person skilled in the art. Alternatively, however, it is also conceivable that the outer housing unit is at least partially formed integrally with the receiving housing.
[0020] It is also proposed that the gun receptacle have at least one drain opening for discharging liquid from the receiving recess of the gun receptacle. Advantageously, liquid that enters the receiving recess, for example, as a result of inadvertent actuation of the cleaning gun while it is arranged in the gun receptacle, can be drained away. The drain opening is preferably arranged on an outer side of the receiving housing.
[0021] In addition, it is proposed that the cleaning device has a mounting plane, wherein a central axis of the gun holder, in particular the one already mentioned above, runs transversely to the mounting plane.
[0022] A particularly convenient, safe and / or space-saving arrangement of the cleaning gun can advantageously be realized. An angle between the receiving center axis and the installation plane is preferably different from vertical. “Transverse” should be understood in particular to mean different from parallel. The angle between the receiving center axis and the installation plane is in particular at least 10°, preferably at least 30°, more preferably at least 40° and particularly preferably at least 55°. The angle between the receiving center axis and the installation plane is in particular a maximum of 90°, preferably a maximum of 75°, more preferably a maximum of 65°. The installation plane is preferably spanned by a plurality of installation points and / or installation surfaces of the cleaning device on a base, in particular when the cleaning device is placed on the base.The installation points and / or installation surfaces can, in particular, be formed at least partially by the outer housing unit. Additionally or alternatively, it is conceivable that at least some of the installation points and / or installation surfaces are defined by a device frame, for example a metal frame or a plastic frame, which preferably supports the outer housing unit.
[0023] It is further proposed that the cleaning device has a device handle, wherein a handle of the cleaning gun, when arranged in the gun receptacle, in particular in the storage position, runs at least substantially parallel to a main handle axis of the device handle. Advantageously, a particularly space-saving arrangement of the cleaning gun can be achieved. “Substantially parallel” can be understood here as an alignment of a direction relative to a reference direction, in particular in a plane, wherein the direction has a deviation from the reference direction, in particular less than 8°, advantageously less than 5°, and particularly advantageously less than 2°. Preferably, a main handle axis of the handle, when arranged in the storage position in the gun receptacle, runs at least substantially parallel to the main handle axis of the device handle.
[0024] Furthermore, it is proposed that the cleaning device has a device handle, in particular the one already mentioned, which protrudes in a direction perpendicular to a mounting plane, in particular the one already mentioned, relative to the cleaning gun when arranged in the gun receptacle. Damage to the cleaning gun in the event of the cleaning device falling can be advantageously prevented. A particularly protected arrangement of the cleaning gun can be achieved.
