Title: Tearing cleaning cloth structure

Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION  
       [0001] The present invention is related to a tearing cleaning cloth structure composed of multiple sheets of cleaning cloths which are overlapped with each other to form a cleaning cloth. The peripheral of the cleaning cloth is formed with several through holes at equal intervals. The circumference of each through hole is formed with a connecting edge between each upper sheet and each lower sheet of cleaning cloths. After used, the outermost upper and lower cleaning cloths can be entirely torn away. Therefore, in next wipe, the cleaning cloth keeps having an entirely clean surface.  
       [0002]FIG. 1 shows a conventional cleaning cloth  10 ′ with decorative lace  11 ′. The cleaning cloth  10 ′ is composed of multiple sheets of cleaning cloths  10  each having a lace  11 .  
       [0003] When assembled, as shown in FIG. 2, the sheets of cleaning cloths  10  are tidily overlapped with each other. Then a binding edge  12 ′ is disposed on inner side of the lace  11 . Then the cleaning cloths  10  are cut with a cutter to form a tearing line  13 ′ to form a cleaning cloth  10 ′ with decorative lace  11 ′.  
       [0004] The above cleaning cloth has some shortcomings as follows:  
       [0005] 1. The lower sheet of cleaning cloth  10  has unapparent tearing line  13 ′. After the cleaning cloths  10  are torn away layer by layer, the lower sheet of cleaning cloth  10  will be hard to tear.  
       [0006] 2. When using the cleaning cloth  10 ′ to wipe an article (as shown in FIG. 3), the peripheral lace  11 ′ will be also contaminated by dust and dirt. The peripheral lace  11 ′ is separated from the outermost sheets of cleaning cloths  10  by the binding edge  12 ′. When tearing off the outermost sheets of cleaning cloths  10 , the peripheral lace  11 ′ cannot be also torn away. Therefore, the peripheral lace  11 ′ will remain contaminated. This will affect the cleaning effect in next wipe.  
       [0007] 3. When assembled, the sheets of cleaning cloths  10  are first bound by the binding edge  12 ′ and then the cleaning cloths  10  are cut with a tearing line  13 ′ to form the cleaning cloth  10 ′. Therefore, two processing steps are required so that the manufacturing cost is higher.  
       SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION  
       [0008] It is therefore a primary object of the present invention to provide a tearing cleaning cloth structure composed of multiple sheets of cleaning cloths which are overlapped with each other to form a cleaning cloth. The peripheral of the cleaning cloth is formed with several through holes at equal intervals. The circumference of each through hole is formed with a connecting edge between each upper sheet and each lower sheet of cleaning cloths.  
       [0009] It is a further object of the present invention to provide the above tearing cleaning cloth structure in which after used, the outermost upper and lower cleaning cloths can be torn away together with the peripheral decorative lace. Therefore, in next wipe, the cleaning cloth keeps having an entirely clean surface.  
       [0010] It is still a further object of the present invention to provide the above tearing cleaning cloth structure in which it is unnecessary to form a binding edge along the periphery of the cleaning cloth. Therefore, the processing procedure is simplified and the manufacturing cost is lowered.  
       [0011] The present invention can be best understood through the following description and accompanying drawings wherein:

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT  
     [0018] Please refer to FIGS. 4 and 5. Multiple sheets of cleaning cloths  20  having plastic fibers are overlapped with each other to form a wiping cleaning cloth  20 ′. The cleaning cloth  20 ′ has a peripheral decorative lace  21 ′. A thermal needle is instantaneously thrust through inner edge of the lace  21 ′ to fuse the cleaning cloths  20  and form several through holes  22 ′. The circumference of the through hole  22 ′ is formed with connecting edge  220 ′ between each upper sheet and each lower sheet of cleaning cloths  20 . The completed cleaning cloth  20 ′ can have an entirely close periphery or a close periphery with a perforation for a cleaning tool to fit therethrough.  
     [0019] In use, as shown in FIG. 5, the outermost upper and lower sheets of cleaning cloths  20  are directly used to wipe a dirty article. Then the used cleaning cloths  20  are torn away. The cleaning cloths  20  are simply connected by the connecting edge  220 ′ of the circumference of the through hole  22 ′ so that the used cleaning cloths  20  together with the peripheral decorative lace  21 ′ can be torn away. Therefore, in next wipe, the cleaning cloth  20 ′ keeps having an entirely clean surface.  
     [0020] The above embodiment is only used to illustrate the present invention, not intended to limit the scope thereof. Many modifications of the above embodiment can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
