FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention relates to winding adhesive cleaner which attracts dust onto strip of adhesive paper. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     A conventional cleaner with adhesive paper has the construction that rolled paper applied with glue is fit to the shaft and it is rolled on the floor to collect dust or dirt. If adhesion power is lowered due to collected dust, it is required to cut the paper along the perforations to serve fresh face of adhesive paper. 
     Said conventional cleaner, which is only focused on cleaning with glue, has the inconveniences as follows: 
     (1) A batch of adhesive paper is fixed with the length of circumference of the paper roll, which is easily dirtied to spoil adhesive power. 
     (2) It is hard to find the location of perforations due to dust collected, resulting in extra time to serve fresh face. 
     (3) It is insanitary and feels bad to handle the adhesive paper dirtied with dust. 
     (4) It often takes more time to prepare fresh adhesive surface than the time for actual cleaning. It means that the whole cleaning time is prolonged to spoil the merit of easy cleaning method. 
     (5) In conclusion, cleaning with a conventional tool is insanitary and takes much time.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
     Preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below. 
     FIG. 1 shows a cylinder ( 3 ) with an opening ( 4 ) including a roll of adhesive paper ( 1 ) and a winding shaft ( 9   a ). The paper drawn from the roll ( 1 ) gets out of the cylinder ( 3 ) through the opening ( 4 ), laid along the round of said cylinder to be wound on the winding shaft ( 9   a ) put in said cylinder through the opposite side of said opening ( 4 ). The cylinder ( 3 ) is closed with two end plates ( 5 ) and ( 6 ) at both ends, the end plate ( 5 ) having a center hole ( 7 ) to insert a center shaft ( 10 ) and two supporting holes; ( 8   b ) for sustaining an unwinding shaft ( 8   a ) with the roll of adhesive paper and ( 9   b ) for sustaining the winding shaft ( 9   a ), the end plate ( 6 ) having a center hole ( 11 ) with a stopper ( 12 ) and two supporting holes; ( 8   c ) for sustaining the unwinding shaft ( 8   a ) and ( 9   c ) for sustaining the winding shaft ( 9   a ), the stopper ( 12 ) to be fit with a stopper channel ( 15 ) on the top of the center shaft ( 10 ) to prevent slip-off. 
     On an end of the unwinding shaft ( 8   a ), socket holes ( 16   b ) are equipped, which are fit with projections ( 16   a ) put on an unwinding gear shaft ( 13 ) shown in FIG.  2 . Also on an end of the winding shaft ( 9   a ), socket holes ( 17   b ) are equipped, which are fit with projections ( 17   a ) put on a winding gear shaft ( 14 ) shown in FIG.  2 . 
     In a gear box ( 2 ), the center shaft ( 10 ) is equipped with a one-way bearing ( 18 ) joined with a driving gear ( 19 ) to enable the shaft rotation only in the arrow direction. The winding gear shaft ( 14 ) is equipped with a winding gear ( 20 ) engaging with said driving gear ( 19 ). The unwinding gear shaft ( 13 ) is equipped with a ratchet gear to prevent reverse rotation. 
     An arm with backstop claw ( 22 ) is equipped on the center shaft ( 10 ) at the arm&#39;s fulcrum, each end of the arm being pressed on the winding gear ( 20 ) and the ratchet gear ( 21 ) respectively using a spring ( 23 ) to prevent slip or reverse rotation of them. In this status, the winding gear ( 20 ) can&#39;t rotate by itself or the ratchet gear ( 21 ) can&#39;t rotate reverse but can advance only in the arrow direction. 
     On the end of the unwinding gear shaft ( 13 ), the projections ( 16   a ) are equipped to fit in the socket holes on the unwinding shaft ( 8   a ). On the end of the winding gear shaft ( 14 ), the projections ( 17   a ) are equipped to fit in the socket on the winding shaft ( 9   a ). 
     To prepare the operation of this cleaner, the cylinder (FIG. 1) should be held and the center shaft ( 10 ) should be inserted into the cylinder through the center holes ( 7 ) and ( 11 ) to fit with the stopper at the stopper channel ( 15 ). At the same time, the projections ( 16   a ) and ( 17   a ) should be fit with the socket holes ( 16   b ) and ( 17   b ) respectively to join the unwinding shaft ( 8   a ) and the winding shaft ( 9   a ) with the unwinding gear shaft ( 13 ) and the winding gear shaft ( 14 ). This is the end of preparation before operation. 
     FIG. 3 shows the sectional view of combination of the cylinder (FIG. 1) and the body (FIG.  2 ). When the handle ( 25 ) is held and the cylinder is moved back and forth pressing onto the floor, the one-way bearing ( 18 ) slips around the center shaft ( 10 ) on the forth way together with the driving gear ( 19 ) but the winding gear ( 20 ) engaged with the driving gear doesn&#39;t rotate. Thus said cylinder and said body (gear box) turn on said center shaft without rotation of the winding shaft ( 9   a ) or the roll of adhesive paper ( 1 ) to attract dust. In other words, the center shaft turns against the cylinder and the gear box. 
     On the back way, said one-way bearing ( 18 ) fixed on said center shaft is locked. Then said driving gear ( 19 ) is also stopped. However the winding gear ( 20 ) fixed on the winding gear shaft ( 14 ) starts the planet motion around said driving gear ( 19 ) as said cylinder continues rolling on the floor. Then the top of the arm with backstop claw biting the winding gear ( 20 ) is forced up with the motion, the opposite top of the arm also being forced up against the ratchet gear ( 21 ). The lock of the unwinding shaft ( 8   a ) and the winding shaft ( 9   a ) is released to wind the adhesive paper. 
     When the back motion of the cylinder stops, both tops of said arm again bite said winding gear ( 20 ) and said ratchet gear ( 21 ) respectively to lock them. 
     The winding adhesive cleaner according to the invention described above realizes a new ideal feeding system that adhesive paper laid on the cylinder ( 3 ) is wound up into the cylinder at the most dirtied part after running around the cylinder and that the fresh adhesive face is always fed at the same time. If the cleaner is lifted up unexpectedly when it is sticking on the floor, adhesive paper isn&#39;t drawn out to loosen because the unwinding shaft ( 8   a ) and the winding shaft ( 9   a ) are both locked at the same time when the cleaner is stopped. Even if adhesive paper is slackened a little, it will be dissolved through rotation of the cylinder. The cylinder can also be turned hanging a finger in a winding hole ( 24 ) to dissolve slackened paper or even to prepare fresh adhesive face all round of the cylinder. 
     When all of fresh adhesive face is consumed, the cylinder (FIG. 1) is taken off from the center shaft ( 10 ) to throw away. 
     A winding adhesive cleaner according to the invention has the effects as follows: 
     (1) Adhesive face is continuously changed without removing dirtied face or suspending cleaning operation; 
     (2) Operation without touching dirty adhesive face directly with fingers is very sanitary; 
     (3) Cleaning time is remarkably shortened and fatigue for cleaning is reduced; 
     (4) A cylinder after consumed can be thrown away; and 
     (5) Through above effects, cleaning mind is encouraged to achieve clean life environment.
