Abstract (en)

A squeezing device (1) for squeezing a cleaning device (2) such as a mop comprises at least one pressing element (3), at least one counterpressing element (4), and at least one adjusting device (5). The pressing element (3) and the counterpressing element (4) are arranged at a distance (d) from one another and are configured to exert a squeezing force on a cleaning device (2) disposed between the pressing element (3) and the counterpressing element (4). The adjusting device (5) is configured to adjust the squeezing force being exertable by the pressing element (3) and the counterpressing element (4) and comprises at least one selector element (6) and at least one shifting element (7). The selector element (6) is configured to adapt at least a first position and a second position upon an actuation and further comprises at least a first recess (8) and a second recess (8a), wherein the first recess (8) and the second recess (8a) extend into the selector element (6) to different extents. The shifting element (7) is in connection with the pressing element (3) and is at least partially received in the first recess (8) when the selector element (6) is in the first position and is at least partially received in the second recess (8a) when the selector element (6) is in the second position, whereby the distance (d) between the pressing element (3) and the counterpressing element (4) and thereby the squeezing force is adjustable.
