Clothes roller

The invention relates to a new clothes roller with a rotatably attached lint roller which is used _{to remove lint and the like from clothes f} fabrics or similar surfaces.

Clothes rollers with rotatably attached lint rollers are known. The disadvantage of these, however, is that they have to be dismantled in order to reload a new lint roller as soon as a lint roller is through picked up lint is used up. This role change is cumbersome and makes manual work for the Less skilled users are overwhelmed by this, which can prevent them from further refill rolls to use. Rather, the consumer will be inclined to throw away the entire device.

The object of the invention was to remedy this

create and develop a clothes roller that does not have the disadvantages of the prior art or exhibits only to a much lesser extent. In particular, the clothes roller should be used when changing

the lint rollers no longer have to be removed.

Accordingly, the invention relates to a clothes roller

with

a) a hollow handle ending in a hollow axis,

b) Lint roller attached to the expanding mandrel and the retaining mandrel

c) a conical attachment aid, arranged in the front area of the retaining mandrel,

d) Spring elements for holding the lint roller, arranged in the front area of the expanding mandrel

e) with the retaining mandrel with the conical attachment aid and the spring element expanding mandrel are rotatably mounted on the hollow axle handle.

This new clothes roller does not need to be dismantled to change roles. Rather, the Clothes roller with the expanding mandrel in front is simply inserted into a lint roller, which is securely through a Expanding mandrel is held. It is also advantageous that this clothes roller even before assembly can be completely assembled with the lint roller. This final assembly can even be done with the appropriate Package design and consumer education be left to this.

The new clothes roller consists essentially of three parts and the lint roller, namely a hollow axle or a hollow handle that terminates in a hollow axle, on which the retaining mandrel is attached conical attachment aid and the spring element expanding mandrel are rotatably mounted that the attached Lint roller with low friction around the axis of the

ill Il · ■ · * · ·

Handle can rotate, this desired effect is determined by the design and function of the two Dprne reached. The hollow axle is provided with an annular groove, j, h the one in the bearing bore of the expanding mandrel circumferential bead is engaged. This arrangement prevents the lint roller from being pulled off the mandrels of the expanding mandrel is pulled from the hollow axle.

An exemplary embodiment of the new clothes roller is shown in the figure. Of the Handle 1 ends in a hollow axle 2, an annular groove (3) being formed on this. On the Expanding mandrel 4 and the retaining mandrel 5 is attached a lint roller 6, which has a roller core and a has outer adhesive layer in a manner known per se. In the front area of the expanding mandrel 5 is a conical one Attachment aid 7 arranged. A spring element expanding mandrel is located in the front area of the clothes roller 4 for holding the lint roller 6. The expanding mandrel 5 with the conical attachment aid 7 and the spring element expanding mandrel 4 rotatable on the hollow shaft handle 1 stored.

A number of resilient segments are formed on the expanding mandrel 4, the spherical shape of which is light Penetration into the core of the lint roller 6 is allowed, the wedge effect occurring the outer diameter of the expanding mandrel 4 reduced so that it is smaller than the inner diameter of the lint roller core. The roller can thus be pushed into a lint roller 6 until the edge of the lint roller 6 reached the retaining mandrel 5. An expected parallelism deviation between the axis of the lint roller and the axis of the clothes roller is through the conical

Attachment aid 7 of the retaining mandrel 5 as it is pushed on further the lint roller 6 so reset that also the retaining mandrel 5 can be pushed into the lint roller 6 with ease.

5 Is the lint roller 6 pushed on so far that the protruding edge or stop 8 of the retaining pin further sliding is prevented, so the segments of the expanding mandrel 4 spring back into their starting position back and secure by the now protruding 10 edge or stop 9, the lint roller 6 against unintentional Sliding down from the expanding mandrel 4 and the retaining mandrel 5 while the device is in use.
