Abstract

A wiping plate (1) for accommodating a replaceable wiping cloth (2) is disclosed. The wiping plate (1) includes an essentially plate-shaped support plate (3) with an elastically resilient foam member (4) that can be fixed to the bottom face thereof. The foam member (4) is provided with at least one recess (5) inside which at least one non-elastic plug (6) is arranged. The at least one plug (6) is connected to the support plate (3) and has a length that is smaller than the height of the foam member (4) in the unstressed state. The plug (6) can at least be brought in contact with the side of the wiping cloth (2), which faces away from the wiping surface, by applying pressure to the support plate (3) and the compressed foam member (4).
