Description
[0001] COMPACT CLEANING PLATFORM WITH CLEAN WATER SHOWER HOSE
[0002] OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
[0003] This application is for the registration of a COMPACT CLEANING PLATFORM WITH A CLEAN WATER SHOWER HOSE that provides clean water for cleaning, incorporating several advantages over current systems. Cleaning is necessary in all areas. In the vast majority of cases, one or two buckets with a mop are used. These buckets are filled with clean water and chemicals, the mop is wet, wrung out, scrubbed, and the process is repeated until the operator determines that the water is dirty and needs to be replaced. They move to a dump or toilet, empty the buckets into it, and proceed to refill them and apply the necessary chemicals. This operation must be performed a minimum of 8 to 15 times per cleaning station over a 7-hour workday, depending on the level of dirt.This generates a series of downtimes in the cleaning process, ergonomic problems due to emptying the buckets, which hold between 10 and 20 liters of water each, and hygiene issues since, often due to the need to cover several rooms and spaces, there is a tendency to minimize the number of water changes. The amount of water used per year for cleaning, during a full 7-hour workday, can be approximately 40,000 liters per operator per year. This model solves these problems by creating a system that provides clean water by recycling the dirty water used in scrubbing, eliminating the need to travel and dump water in the previously specified locations. The operator does not have to overexert himself / herself emptying and refilling the buckets since the spillway / drain is located approximately 30 cm from the ground, on the cart itself, and he / she also avoids wasting time moving around.Hygiene levels are increased by using clean water more frequently, and water usage per worker per year is reduced by 80%.
[0004] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0005] There are devices on the market for mopping with clean water, but they require the use of mops that must be washed daily in a washing machine (usually industrial), and this often prevents the implementation of these systems. There is also a bucket with a reservoir that allows mopping with clean water, but it is a single bucket, does not have a wringer, and does not prevent the need to empty it into a landfill or toilet and refill it with clean water. The CLEANING PLATFORM WITH TAP, registered as Utility Model application number 201800263 on June 29, 2018, is the predecessor of this new utility model, which improves on it both in weight and efficiency.
[0006] EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION
[0007] The device has an 18-liter clean water tank (CWT) at its base, which has a fill connection. At the top, there is a hose that ends in a shower, which is fed by this clean water tank. Pressing the water button activates a pump that forces water out of the hose. This water can be used to fill the bucket on the platform or wash any utensils on it. The platform has a drainage drawer with sides that allows the contents of the bucket to be emptied without spilling. It has a grid that acts as a base, support, and initial dirt filter. Beneath it is a drain into which the dirty water is emptied. This dirty water, poured into the platform's drain, flows into a 12-liter dirty water tank (DWT), which has a drain connection. This dirty water tank has three settling chutes to pre-filter the dirty water.At the base of the tank, there is a sensor that, as soon as it begins to fill, and if filtration is enabled using the filter button, and as long as the clean water tank is not full, begins the filtration process, passing through a 50-micron filter, then a 5-micron filter, and finally an ultraviolet light disinfector. The filtered and disinfected water is poured into the clean water tank. In this way, the clean water tank is continuously refilled, making clean water available to the operator.

[0017] Following the drawings you can see that the system is L-shaped, at the top there is a hose ending in a shower telephone (6) that dispenses between 4 / 5 liters per minute when activated with the water switch (8) this facilitates the filling of the bucket or buckets that are on top of the platform, as well as the washing of any other utensil. The base of the platform has a grid (5) that goes over the drain drawer (1) that falls to the right. The drain empties into the upper part of the dirty water tank (3). This drain drawer rests on the two tanks, clean water (2) and dirty water (3) that are inside the platform. The drain drawer has side walls with a lip that allow a full bucket of water to be poured without the water spilling out of it. The system has a nozzle (7) for filling the clean water tank (2) and a nozzle (4) for emptying the dirty water tank (3).In the clean water tank (2) there is a clean water pump (17) that feeds the shower hose (6). This pump is activated by the water button (8). In the dirty water tank (3) there is a dirty water pump (16) that carries the dirty water to the 50 micron filter A (14), to the 5 micron filter B (13) and to the ultraviolet light disinfector (12), after filtering the water, it is poured into the clean water tank (2). The clean water pump (17) which is located in the clean water tank (2) and feeds the shower hose (6), has a level sensor to activate only when it has water. The dirty water pump (16) has a level sensor to activate only when there is water in the dirty water tank (3) and the clean water tank (2) is not full. Both pumps (16) and (17) are powered by rechargeable batteries (15). This battery is charged by a connector located on the back cover (10).
[0018] The compact cleaning platform with a clean water shower hose, object of this invention, will be manufactured with the appropriate materials for its elements and components, in plastic or metal material.
