Door handle with automatic cleaning function
The invention relates to a door handle (10) with an automatic cleaning function. The door handle comprises a handle (12) and a housing (14), the handle being mounted to the housing by a mounting mechanism (16,18) and being movable relative to the housing between a rest position and an activated position. The handle is resiliently biased to the rest position. The housing (14) contains a primary reservoir (34) for a cleaning agent and the door handle has a secondary reservoir (44) for the cleaning agent, the secondary reservoir being located adjacent to the handle (12). A part of the mounting mechanism is connected to a pump mechanism (36) for driving the cleaning agent from the primary reservoir (34) to the secondary reservoir (44). The handle (12) has a longitudinal axis (A-A) and is rotatable about the longitudinal axis relative to the mounting mechanism (16,18). The mounting mechanism has a rotation mechanism (62,64,66,72,74) which controls the rotation of the handle (12), the rotation mechanism substantially preventing rotation of the handle as the handle moves from its rest position to its activated position and driving the handle to rotate as the handle moves from its activated position to its rest position.
