Cleaning implement

A cleaning tool comprising:

• a cleaning head having a cleaning operation surface at a bottom;
• a holding portion arranged on the side opposite the cleaning head;
• a pipe that couples the cleaning head and the holding portion;
• and
• a valve opening and closing device provided to the pipe, the valve opening and closing device being able to selectively hold one of a first container receiving a first fluid and a second container receiving a second fluid,
• the valve opening and closing device comprising a connection mechanism from which the first container is detachable and an adaptor coupled to the connection mechanism and from which the second container is detachable,
• the cleaning head comprising a first ejection nozzle which ejects the first fluid from the connection mechanism to the outside of the cleaning head,
• the adapter comprising a second ejection nozzle which ejects the second fluid from the adapter,
• the holding portion comprising a lever coupled to the valve opening and closing device, the lever opening and closing the first valve of the first container or the second valve of the second container,
• wherein the first ejection nozzle can eject the first fluid forward of the cleaning head, and the second ejection nozzle can eject the second fluid rearward of the cleaning head when using the cleaning tool by positioning the cleaning head at the front and the holding portion at the rear,
• wherein the connection mechanism comprises a cam device including a rocker arm forming a dynamic articulation that reciprocates angularly and a pusher following the rocker arm to reciprocate linearly, the holding portion comprising a pulley rotated interlockingly with rotary motion of the lever and a belt having one end caught at a moving end of the rocker arm and the other end wound on the pulley, the belt transmitting a displacement of the lever to the pusher,
• wherein the adaptor comprises
• a cylindrical adaptor main body,
• a cylinder held inside the adaptor main body to be movable axially and the second ejection nozzle coupled to the cylinder,
• the adaptor main body having one end having a first connection port detachably held to the connection mechanism and the other end having a second connection port for detachably holding the second container,
• the cylinder having one end abutting on a distal end of the pusher toward the first connection port and the other end having an inclined portion that intersects the axial direction of the cylinder at an acute angle toward the second connection port,
• wherein the second ejection nozzle is formed in a T-shape, the T-shaped second ejection nozzle having one end coupled to the inclined portion and the other end connected to the second valve, the T-shaped second ejection nozzle having a spout at a T-shaped end for ejecting the second fluid to the outside of the adaptor main body.

• wherein the second ejection nozzle comprises
• an L-shaped portion and
• a collar formed with the L-shaped portion and extending in the direction orthogonal to the axis of the second valve,
• the cylinder having one end abutting on a distal end of the pusher toward the first connection port and the other end having a protrusion that can push the collar in a position distant from the second valve, the L-shaped portion having one end coupled to the second valve and the other end formed with a spout for ejecting the second fluid to the outside of the adaptor main body.
