Abstract

The mop has a flat holder and a mop covering attached to the underside of the holder and projecting from an edge of the holder with an edge protection border. The mop can be wrung in a corresponding device. The wringing device has a first pressing element and a second pressing element, which traverse the holder with the mop covering and which squeeze the mop cover in order to wring it. One of the pressing elements continuously extends over the entire width of the mop covering perpendicular to the direction of movement of the holder. The other pressing element has two parts with a gap in between for allowing the passage of a handle joined to the holder. In the vicinity of the gap formed by the pressing element, the edge protection border is formed so that it does not absorb and dirt and/or moisture.

Description

Diese Aufgabe wird nach der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, dass der Kantenschutz im Bereich der von dem einen Druckelement gebildeten Lücke so ausgestaltet ist, dass er keine Verschmutzung und/oder Feuchtigkeit aufnehmen kann.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the edge protection in the region of the gap formed by a pressure element is designed so that it can not absorb dirt and / or moisture.
Der durch die Erfindung erreichte Vorteil besteht im wesentlichen darin, dass durch den überstehenden Wischbezug auf der Schmalseite zum einen auch mit der Schmalseite entlang von Möbelkanten und anderen Einrichtungsgegenständen randnah gewischt werden kann, ohne diese dabei mit dem Halter zu berühren. Insbesondere wird hierdurch ein wesentlich einfacher gestalteter Aufbau erreicht, da keine separate Gummikante oder ähnliches erforderlich ist. Der Wisch bezug kann dabei ohne Änderung in den schon bekannten Reinigungs- und Entfeuchtungsstationen gereinigt und entfeuchtet werden.The advantage achieved by the invention consists essentially in that can be wiped by the excess mop cover on the narrow side for a randnah also with the narrow side along furniture edges and other furnishings without touching it with the holder. In particular, this results in a much simpler designed structure, since no separate rubber edge or the like is required. The mop cover can be cleaned and dehumidified without modification in the already known cleaning and dehumidifying stations.
Nach einer ersten vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weist der Kantenschutzrand im Bereich der Lücke eine von einem Einschnitt gebildete Aussparung auf. Diese Aussparung beeinträchtigt weder die Reinigungsleistung des Wischbezugs noch die angestrebte Wirksamkeit des Kantenschutzes merklich, da die Lücke im Vergleich zur Schmalseite des Halters klein ist.According to a first advantageous embodiment of the invention, the edge protection edge in the region of the gap on a recess formed by a recess. This recess affects neither the cleaning performance of the mop cover nor the desired effectiveness of the edge protection noticeable, since the gap is small compared to the narrow side of the holder.
Nach einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist der Kantenschutzrand im Bereich der Lücke mit schmutz- und feuchtigkeitsabweisenden Überzug versehen. Diese Variante besitzt somit einen vollwertigen Kantenschutz, während lediglich die Reinigungsleistung wegen des schmutz- und feuchtigkeitsabweisenden Überzuges minimal herabgesetzt ist.According to a further embodiment of the invention, the edge protection edge is provided in the region of the gap with dirt and moisture-repellent coating. This variant thus has a full edge protection, while only the cleaning performance is minimized due to the dirt and moisture-repellent coating.
Als weitere Möglichkeit wird im Rahmen der Erfindung noch vorgeschlagen, dass der Kantenschutzrand im Bereich der Lücke von einem ausreichend weich eingestellten Material gebildet ist, das entweder selbst schmutz- oder feuchtigkeitsabweisend ist oder mit schmutz- oder feuchtigkeitsabweisender Substanz versehen ist. Auch diese Ausgestaltung sichert einen vollständigen, rundum vorhandenen Kantenschutz.Another possibility is proposed in the context of the invention that the edge protection edge is formed in the gap of a sufficiently soft set material that is either dirt or moisture repellent itself or provided with dirt or moisture repellent substance. This design also ensures complete, all-around edge protection.
Um beim Reinigen und Entfeuchten des Feuchtwischers in einem entsprechendem Feuchtreini- gungsgerät sicherzustellen, dass der randseitig vorhandene Überstand sicher und glatt in die Entfeuchtungseinrichtung einläuft, empfiehlt es sich, dass zur Versteifung des Kantenschutzrandes ein Stabilisierungsmittel vorgesehen ist. Dieses Stabilisierungsmittel kann grundsätzlich aus jedem hierzu geeigneten Material bestehen. In besonders einfacher und daher im Rahmen der Erfindung bevorzugter Ausgestaltung ist vorgesehen, dass als Stabilisierungsmittel der für eine Klettverbindung zwischen Wischbezug und Halter am Wischbezug vorgesehene Flausch bis in den Kantenschutzrand hinein vorsteht. Durch die Verwendung des ohnehin schon wegen der Befestigung benötigten Flausches kann somit auf den Einsatz zusätzlicher Materialien verzichtet werden. Im folgenden wird die Erfindung an in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen näher erläutert; es zeigenIn order to ensure that the protrusion on the edge of the edge runs safely and smoothly into the dehumidifying device when cleaning and dehumidifying the wet mop in a suitable wet cleaning device, it is recommended that a stabilizing agent be provided for stiffening the edge protection edge. This stabilizing agent can basically consist of any material suitable for this purpose. In a particularly simple and therefore within the scope of the invention preferred embodiment, it is provided that protrudes as a stabilizer provided for a Velcro connection between mop cover and holder on the mop cover Velcro into the edge protection edge inside. By using the already required because of the attachment Flauschches can thus be dispensed with the use of additional materials. In the following the invention is explained in detail in exemplary embodiments illustrated in the drawing; show it

In Figur 1 ist als Ausführungsbeispiel schematisch eine Vorrichtung 104 zum Befeuchten eines Feuchtwischers 101 dargestellt, die manuell betrieben wird. Der Feuchtwischer 101 besitzt einen an einem Stiel 118 befestigten Halter 102 zum Halten eines Wischbezugs 103. Der Wischbezug 103 ist flexibel und saugfähig, so dass er zum Reinigen insbesondere von Böden mit einer Reinigungsflüssigkeit angefeuchtet werden kann.In FIG. 1, a device 104 for moistening a wet wiper 101, which is operated manually, is shown schematically as an exemplary embodiment. The wet mop 101 has a holder 102 fixed to a handle 118 for holding a mop cover 103. The mop cover 103 is flexible and absorbent, so that it can be moistened for cleaning in particular floors with a cleaning liquid.
Zum Befeuchten wird der Feuchtwischer 101 in Pfeilrichtung durch die Vorrichtung 104 durch eine Führung 113 geführt, die einzelne Führungselemente in Form von waagrecht angeordneten Blechen aufweist. Die Führung 113 führt dabei den Halter 102 waagrecht entlang einer waagrechten Bewegungsbahn über eine Düse 112 hinweg. Die Düse 112 ist über eine Flüssigkeitsleitung 11 mit einer Pumpe 108 verbunden, die unten am Boden eines Behälters 105 angeordnet ist, der die Basis der Vorrichtung 104 bildet. In dem Behälter 105 befindet sich eine Reinigungsflüssigkeit 106, die von der Pumpe 108 über ein Eingangsfilter 107 angesaugt und durch die Leitung 11 zur Düse 112 gepumpt werden kann. Durch die Düse 112 kann die Flüssigkeit 106 von unten gegen den Wischbezug 103 des Feuchtwischers 101 gespritzt werden. In der Führung 113 ist ein Sensor 114 beispielsweise in Form eines Schalters vorgesehen, der die Anwesenheit des Halters 102 in der Führung 113 erfasst. Sobald der Halter 102 in die Führung 113 eingeführt und dies von dem Sensor 114 erfasst worden ist, steuert eine nicht dargestellte Steuerung die Pumpe 108 an, so dass die Flüssigkeit 106 durch die Düse 112 nach oben gespritzt wird. Gleichzeitig wird eine motorisch angetriebene Antriebsrolle 110 angesteuert, die unterhalb der Bewegungsbahn angeordnet ist. Auf der der Antriebsrolle 110 gegenüberliegenden Seite der Bewegungsbahn sind zwei Gegenrollen 109 angeordnet, die koaxial zueinander angeordnet sind und um eine Drehachse drehbar sind, die parallel zur Drehachse der Antriebsrolle 110 ist. Der Halter 102 kann so zusammen mit dem Wischbezug 103 zwischen der Antriebsrolle 110 und den Gegenrollen 109 hindurch gezogen werden.For moistening, the wet wiper 101 is guided in the direction of the arrow by the device 104 through a guide 113, which has individual guide elements in the form of horizontally arranged sheets. The guide 113 leads the holder 102 horizontally along a horizontal trajectory over a nozzle 112 of time. The nozzle 112 is connected via a fluid line 11 to a pump 108 located at the bottom of a container 105 which forms the base of the device 104. In the container 105 is a cleaning liquid 106, which can be sucked by the pump 108 via an input filter 107 and pumped through line 11 to the nozzle 112. Through the nozzle 112, the liquid 106 can be injected from below against the mop cover 103 of the wet mop 101. In the guide 113, a sensor 114 is provided, for example in the form of a switch, which detects the presence of the holder 102 in the guide 113. Once the holder 102 has been inserted into the guide 113 and this has been detected by the sensor 114, a controller, not shown, controls the pump 108, so that the liquid 106 is sprayed upwardly through the nozzle 112. At the same time a motor-driven drive roller 110 is driven, which is arranged below the movement path. On the drive roller 110 opposite side of the movement path two counter-rollers 109 are arranged, which are arranged coaxially to each other and are rotatable about an axis of rotation which is parallel to the axis of rotation of the drive roller 110. The holder 102 can thus be pulled together with the mop cover 103 between the drive roller 110 and the counter rollers 109 therethrough.
Der Abstand zwischen der Antriebsrolle 110 und den Gegenrollen 109 ist so bemessen, dass der Halter 102 mit dem Wischbezug 103 in Reibschluss mit den Rollen 109, 110 steht, so dass er erfasst und angetrieben werden kann.The distance between the drive roller 110 and the counter rollers 109 is dimensioned so that the holder 102 with the mop cover 103 is in frictional engagement with the rollers 109, 110, so that it can be detected and driven.
Die Antriebsrolle 110 erstreckt sich über die gesamte Breite des Wischbezugs 103 senkrecht zur Antriebsrichtung, so dass sie über die gesamte Breite unten an dem Wischbezug 103 anliegt. Die beiden Gegenrollen 109 sind jeweils so angeordnet, dass sie über den Rändern des Halters 102 und des Wischbezugs 103 in Breitenausdehnung des Halters 102 angeordnet sind und zwischen sich einen Zwischenraum offen lassen. Der Zwischenraum zwischen den Rollen 109 dient zum Hindurchführen des Stiels 118 des Feuchtwischers.The drive roller 110 extends over the entire width of the mop cover 103 perpendicular to the drive direction, so that it rests on the bottom of the mop cover 103 over the entire width. The two counter rollers 109 are each arranged so that they are arranged over the edges of the holder 102 and the mop cover 103 in width extension of the holder 102 and leave a gap between them open. The space between the rollers 109 serves to pass the handle 118 of the wet mop.
In Figur 2 ist der obere Teil der Vorrichtung 104 zusammen mit dem unteren Teil des Feuchtwischers 101 von vorne dargestellt. In dieser Darstellung ist zu sehen, dass die Gegenrollen 109 jeweils aus zwei zueinander konzentrisch angeordneten Zylinderabschnitten 119, 120 bestehen, die unterschiedliche Durchmesser aufweisen. Die kleineren Zylinderabschnitte 119 sind jeweils innen und die größeren Zylinderabschnitte 120 sind jeweils außen angeordnet. Dies hat zur Folge, dass der Spalt zwischen der Antriebsrolle 110 und den größeren Zylinderabschnitten 120 außen geringer ist als zwischen der Antriebsrolle 110 und den kleineren Zylinderabschnitten 119. Die Antriebsrolle 110 ist zum Antrieb in Drehrichtung weiterhin mit einem Motor 116 verbunden.In Figure 2, the upper part of the device 104 is shown together with the lower part of the wet mop 101 from the front. In this illustration, it can be seen that the counter rollers 109 each consist of two cylinder sections 119, 120 which are arranged concentrically with respect to one another and which have different diameters. The smaller cylinder portions 119 are respectively inside and the larger cylinder portions 120 are disposed outside, respectively. As a result, the gap between the drive roller 110 and the larger cylinder portions 120 is smaller on the outside than between the drive roller 110 and the smaller cylinder portions 119. The drive roller 110 is further connected to a motor 116 for driving in the direction of rotation.
Weiterhin ist in Figur 2 zu sehen, dass der Wischbezug 103 in Bewegungsrichtung breiter als der Halter 102 ist und an den Seiten des Halters 102 übersteht. Die an beiden Seiten überstehenden Ränder des Wischbezugs 103 bilden dabei ein Polster für den Halter 102, der auch als Schutz gegen eine Beschädigung anderer Gegenstände wie insbesondere von Möbeln durch den Halter 102 dient. Da der Halter 102 zum Auspressen des Wischbezugs 103 Kraft übertragen können muss, ist der Halter 102 vorzugsweise aus einem steifen Material wie beispielsweise einem Metall beschaffen, so dass der Halter 102 durchaus andere Gegenstände bei einer Berührung beschädigen könnte. Aus diesem Grund ist ein überstehender Wischbezug 103 als Schutz besonders vorteilhaft.Furthermore, it can be seen in FIG. 2 that the mop cover 103 is wider in the direction of movement than the holder 102 and projects beyond the sides of the holder 102. The protruding edges on both sides of the mop cover 103 thereby form a cushion for the holder 102, which also serves as protection against damage to other objects such as in particular of furniture by the holder 102. Since the holder 102 must be able to transmit force for squeezing the mop cover 103, the holder 102 is preferably made of a rigid material such as a metal so that the holder 102 may well damage other objects in contact. For this reason, a protruding mop cover 103 is particularly advantageous as protection.
Um auch die überstehenden Teile des Wischbezugs 103 auspressen zu können, sind die kleineren Zylinderabschnitte 119 innen so bemessen, dass sie den Halter 102 zusammen mit dem darunter liegenden Teil des Wischbezugs 103 auf der Antriebsrolle 110 auspressen können, und sind die größeren Zylinderabschnitte 120 so bemessen, dass sie die seitlich über den Halter 102 überstehenden Ränder des Wischbezugs 103 auf der Antriebsrolle 110 auspressen können. Dazu ist die Höhe der größeren Zylinderabschnitte 120 in Achsrichtung wenigstens gleich der Breite des überstehenden Randes des Wischbezugs 103 und ist der Durchmesser der größeren Zylinderabschnitte 120 zusammen mit dem Abstand der Achsen für die Gegenrollen 109 und der Antriebsrolle 110 so gewählt, dass der überstehende Rand des Wischbezugs 103 dazwischen zusammengedrückt werden kann.In order to be able to extrude the protruding parts of the mop cover 103, the smaller cylinder portions 119 are internally sized so that they can press out the holder 102 together with the underlying part of the mop cover 103 on the drive roller 110, and the larger cylinder portions 120 are sized in that they can press out the edges of the mop cover 103 on the drive roller 110 projecting laterally beyond the holder 102. For this purpose, the height of the larger cylinder sections 120 in the axial direction is at least equal to the width of the protruding edge of the mop cover 103 and the diameter of the larger cylinder sections 120 together with the distance of the axes for the counter rollers 109 and the drive roller 110 is selected so that the protruding edge of Mop cover 103 can be compressed in between.
Bei den innen angeordneten kleineren Zylinderabschnitten 119 ist nur erforderlich, dass sie auf dem Halter 102 aufliegen und ihn gegen die Antriebsrolle 110 pressen können, um den vom HalterWith the smaller cylinder portions 119 arranged inside, it is only necessary that they rest on the holder 102 and be able to press it against the drive roller 110 in order to move it from the holder
102 bedeckten Teil des Wischbezugs 103 auspressen zu können. Zwischen den beiden kleineren Zylinderabschnitten 119 ist eine Unterbrechung bzw. ein Spalt zum Hindurchführen des Stiels 118 vorgesehen. Je enger der Spalt ist, desto schwieriger wird das Hindurchführen des Stiels 118. Umgekehrt erhöht sich mit zunehmend enger werdendem Spalt die Fläche, mit der die kleineren Zylinderabschnitte 119 auf den Halter 102 drücken, und verringern sich so die Biegemomente, die auf den Halter 102 wirken.102 pressed part of the mop cover 103 can press out. Between the two smaller cylinder portions 119, a break or gap for passing the handle 118 is provided. The narrower the gap, the more difficult it is to pass the handle 118. Conversely, as the narrowing gap becomes narrower, the area at which the smaller cylinder sections 119 press against the holder 102 increases, thus reducing the bending moments on the holder 102 Act.
Die beiden aneinander grenzenden Zylinderabschnitte 119, 120 sind koaxial zueinander auf einer gemeinsamen Welle gelagert, wobei sich beide Zylinderabschnitte 119, 120 unabhängig voneinander drehen können.The two adjoining cylinder sections 119, 120 are mounted coaxially with one another on a common shaft, wherein both cylinder sections 119, 120 can rotate independently of one another.
Durch den über die gesamte Breite wirkenden Druck der Antriebsrolle 110 wird der WischbezugBy acting over the entire width pressure of the drive roller 110 of the mop cover
103 wieder zum Teil entfeuchtet bzw. es wird Flüssigkeit aus dem Wischbezug 103 herausgedrückt. Die herausgedrückte Flüssigkeit 106 läuft auf einen Zwischenboden 117 und von dort durch ein Schmutzfilter 115 zurück in den Behälter 105. Beim Hindurchführen des Feuchtwischers 101 durch die Führung 113, wie es in Figur 3 dargestellt ist, wird somit der Wischbezug 103 von unten mit der Reinigungsflüssigkeit 106 bespritzt, so dass der Wischbezug 103 befeuchtet und darin befindlicher Schmutz ausgespült werden kann, und anschließend wieder zum Teil entfeuchtet, so dass er auf der rechten Seite der Vorrichtung 104 mit einer definierten Feuchte austritt. Dies bewirkt, dass der Wischbezug 103 beim Reinigen nicht tropft. Die Steuerung erfasst dabei auch, wann der Halter 102 den Sensor 114 wieder freigibt bzw. wann das hintere Ende des Halters 102 den Sensor 114 passiert hat und steuert dann die Pumpe 108 und die Antriebsrolle 110 noch eine bestimmte Zeitdauer an, bis der Halter 102 vollständig durch die Rollen 109, 110 hindurch gezogen worden ist. Die Ansteuerung der Pumpe 108 kann dabei auch vor der Ansteuerung der Rollen 109, 110 beendet werden.103 partially dehumidified or liquid is pressed out of the mop cover 103. The pushed-out liquid 106 runs on an intermediate bottom 117 and from there through a dirt filter 115 back into the container 105. When passing the wet mop 101 through the guide 113, as shown in Figure 3, thus the mop cover 103 from below with the cleaning liquid 106, so that the mop cover 103 moistened and it can be flushed out dirt, and then dehumidified again in part, so that it exits on the right side of the device 104 with a defined moisture. This causes the mop cover 103 does not drip when cleaning. The controller detects this Also, when the holder 102 releases the sensor 114 again or when the rear end of the holder 102 has passed the sensor 114 and then controls the pump 108 and the drive roller 110 for a certain period of time until the holder 102 completely through the rollers 109 , 110 has been pulled through. The control of the pump 108 can also be terminated before the actuation of the rollers 109, 110.
Wie oben bereits erläutert, wird auch der an der Längs- bzw. Breitseite des Halters 102 vorhandene Überstand des Wischbezugs 103 durch die beschriebene Anordnung entfeuchtet. Der an der Schmalseite des Feuchtwischers 101 angebrachte Überstand wird dagegen im Bereich der denAs already explained above, the protrusion of the mop cover 103 present on the longitudinal or broad side of the holder 102 is also dehumidified by the arrangement described. The attached to the narrow side of the wet mop 101 supernatant, however, is in the area of the
Durchtritt des Stiels 118 ermöglichenden Lücke nicht entfeuchtet, da dort - im Gegensatz zu dem Bereich, in dem der in sich steife Halter 102 vorhanden ist - kein Druck auf den Überstand ausgeübt wird. In Figur 4 ist daher eine Lösung nach dem Stand der Technik dargestellt, bei welcher an der Schmalseite des Feuchtwischers 101 lediglich eine weiche Kante 126 aus Gummi oder Kunststoff vorgesehen ist.Passage of the stem 118 enabling gap is not dehumidified because there - in contrast to the area in which the inherently stiff holder 102 is present - no pressure on the supernatant is exerted. In Figure 4, therefore, a solution according to the prior art is shown, in which on the narrow side of the wet mop 101, only a soft edge 126 is provided rubber or plastic.
Um auch an der Schmalseite des Feuchtwischers 101 einen Überstand vorsehen zu können, dabei aber zu verhindern, dass im Bereich der Lücke, die links neben der Fig. 5c nochmals durch Linien angedeutet ist, eine unerwünscht höhere Restfeuchte als im übrigen Wischbezug 103 verbleibt, ist der Kantenschutzrand 124 im Bereich der von dem einen Druckelement 109 gebildeten Lücke so ausgestaltet, dass er keine Verschmutzung und/oder Feuchtigkeit aufnehmen kann.In order to provide a supernatant on the narrow side of the wet mop 101, but to prevent that in the area of the gap, which is indicated to the left of Fig. 5c again by lines, an undesirably higher residual moisture than the rest mop cover 103 remains the edge protection edge 124 in the region of the gap formed by the one pressure element 109 designed so that it can not absorb dirt and / or moisture.
Dies kann zunächst durch eine Ausgestaltung erfolgen, die eine von einem Einschnitt gebildete, in Figur 6a am rechten Rand des Feuchtwischers 101 angedeutete Aussparung 125 vorsieht, die sich im Bereich der Lücke befindet. Da diese Lücke im Vergleich zur Schmalseite des Halters 102 klein ist, beeinträchtigt die Aussparung weder die Reinigungsleistung des Wischbezugs 103 noch die angestrebte Wirksamkeit des Kantenschutzes merklich.This can first be done by an embodiment which provides a recess 125 formed by an incision, indicated in FIG. 6a on the right-hand edge of the dampener 101, which is located in the region of the gap. Since this gap is small in comparison to the narrow side of the holder 102, the recess significantly affects neither the cleaning performance of the mop cover 103 nor the desired effectiveness of the edge protection.
Der Kantenschutzrand 124 kann im Bereich der Lücke aber auch - wie aus Fig. 5 sowie Fig. 6c und 6d zu ersehen - mit einem schmutz- und feuchtigkeitsabweisenden Überzug 126 versehen sein, wodurch ebenfalls eine Entfeuchtung in diesem Bereich entbehrlich ist.The edge protection edge 124 can also be provided with a dirt and moisture-repellent coating 126 in the region of the gap, as well as, as can be seen from FIG. 5 and FIGS. 6c and 6d, whereby a dehumidification in this area is also unnecessary.
Der Kantenschutzrand 124 kann gemäß Fig. 6 im Bereich der Lücke schließlich auch von einem ausreichend weich eingestellten Material 127 gebildet sein, das entweder selbst schmutz- und feuchtigkeitsabweisend ist, oder aber mit schmutz- und feuchtigkeitsabweisender Substanz versehen ist. Dies ist schematisch in den Figuren 6c und 6d wiedergegeben. Um beim Einziehen des Wischbezugs 103 in die Auspressvorrichtung den Überstand des Wischbezuges 103 vor allem glatt durch die Druckelemente 109,110 laufen zu lassen, empfiehlt sich eine Versteifung des Kantenschutzrandes 124 durch ein Stabilisierungsmittel, das grundsätzlich aus jedem geeigneten Material in beispielsweise leistenförmiger Gestalt im Bereich des Überstandes vorgesehen sein kann. Insbesondere kommt hierfür der ohnehin aus der Klettverbindung zwischen Halter 102 und Wischbezug 103 vorhandene, am Wischbezug 103 angeordnete Flausch 128 in Betracht, der- wie in Fig. 6d - zur Stabilisierung bis in den Kantenschutzrand 124 hinein vorstehen kann. Statt dessen kann aber im eigentlichen Kantenbereich - wie in Fig. 6c dargestellt - eine zusätzliche Verstärkung 129 vorgesehen sein. The edge protection edge 124 may, according to FIG. 6, finally also be formed by a sufficiently soft material 127 in the area of the gap, which material itself is either dirt-repellent or moisture-repellent, or provided with dirt and moisture-repellent substance. This is shown schematically in FIGS. 6c and 6d. In order to allow the supernatant of the mop cover 103, in particular, to run smoothly through the pressure elements 109, 110 when the mop cover 103 is pulled into the squeezing device, stiffening of the edge protection edge 124 is recommended by a stabilizing agent, which basically consists of any suitable material, for example in the shape of a strip, in the region of the overhang can be provided. In particular, this is the already existing from the Velcro connection between the holder 102 and mop cover 103, arranged on the mop cover 103 Velcro 128 into consideration, which - as in Fig. 6d - for stabilization into the edge protection edge 124 can protrude. Instead, however, an additional reinforcement 129 may be provided in the actual edge region, as shown in FIG. 6c.
