Particularly, in accordance with one embodiment of the present disclosure, the cleaning tool (10) includes a handle (200) configured to be grippable by a user, a body (100) having one side to which the handle (200) is pivotably connected and the other side providing an attachment surface to and from which a web (D) for cleaning is attachable and detachable, and a pushing unit (300) provided at the handle (200) to be movable therealong, wherein when the web (D) is attached to the attachment surface, the pushing unit (300) is movable along the handle (200) to separate the web (D) from the attachment surface.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A cleaning tool, comprising:
 a handle;   a body having one side to which the handle is pivotably connected and the other side providing an attachment surface to and from which a web for cleaning is attachable and detachable; and   a pushing unit provided at the handle to be movable therealong, wherein, when the web is attached to the attachment surface, the pushing unit is movable along the handle to separate the web from the attachment surface.   
     
     
         2 . The cleaning tool of  claim 1 , further comprising a rod separably connected to the handle, wherein the body is connected to the one side of the handle, and the rod is connected to the other side of the handle. 
     
     
         3 . The cleaning tool of  claim 1 , wherein the pushing unit includes:
 a pushable button; and   a push bar positioned inside the handle and connected to the button,   wherein, when the web is attached to the attachment surface and the button pushes the push bar, the push bar moves toward an outward side of the handle to separate the web from the attachment surface.   
     
     
         4 . The cleaning tool of  claim 3 , further comprising:
 an insertion depression formed at the handle, wherein the push bar is insertable into the insertion depression; and   a through-hole formed at the body, wherein the through-hole communicates with the insertion depression to enable the push bar to pass through the through-hole.   
     
     
         5 . The cleaning tool of  claim 4 , wherein the pushing unit further comprises a sliding guide provided at one surface of the push bar, and wherein the pushable button is formed at an end portion of the sliding guide. 
     
     
         6 . The cleaning tool of  claim 5 , further comprising a guide slot formed at the handle and facing the insertion depression, wherein when the push bar moves inside the handle, the sliding guide moves along the guide slot. 
     
     
         7 . The cleaning tool of  claim 4 , wherein the body includes a pivot restriction part provided adjacent to the through-hole, wherein the pushing unit includes a push bar latch which is formed at an end portion of the push bar and is engageable with the pivot restriction part, and wherein when the push bar latch and the pivot restriction part are engaged with each other, pivoting of the handle is restricted. 
     
     
         8 . The cleaning tool of  claim 7 , wherein the push bar latch is shaped like a groove with a concave end at the end portion of the push bar, and wherein the pivot restriction part includes a protrusion which is engageable with the push bar latch. 
     
     
         9 . The cleaning tool of  claim 7 , wherein when the handle is pivoted by a predetermined angle that is less than 90 degrees with respect to the body, the push bar latch is engageable with the pivot restriction part. 
     
     
         10 . The cleaning tool of  claim 9 , wherein the predetermined angle is 45 degrees. 
     
     
         11 . The cleaning tool of  claim 4 , wherein the push bar is selectively locatable among a first position, a second position at which pivoting of the handle is restrictable, and a third position at which, when the web is attached to the attachment surface, the push bar passes through the through-hole to separate the web from the body. 
     
     
         12 . The cleaning tool of  claim 11 , further comprising:
 one or more first grooves formed at an inner side surface of the handle; and   or more second grooves formed at the push bar, engageable with the one or more first grooves,   wherein when the one or more first grooves and the one or more second grooves are engaged with one another, the push bar is located in at least one of the first position, the second position, and the third position.   
     
     
         13 . The cleaning tool of  claim 12 , wherein the one or more second grooves respectively includes a first recess, a second recess, and a third recess, each of which is disposed along a direction in which the push bar moves and is engageable with one of the one or more first grooves, and wherein the first recess and a protrusion of one of the one or more first grooves are engaged with each other when the push bar is located at the first position, the second recess and the protrusion are engaged with each other when the push bar is located at the second position, and the third recess and the protrusion are engaged with each other when the push bar is located at the third position. 
     
     
         14 . The cleaning tool of  claim 11 , wherein the body includes a pivot restriction part formed at one side of a circumference of the through-hole, wherein the pushing unit includes a push bar latch formed at an end portion of the push bar and is selectively engaged with the pivot restriction part, and wherein when the push bar latch and the pivot restriction part are engaged with each other, pivoting of the handle is restricted while the push bar is located at the second position. 
     
     
         15 . The cleaning tool of  claim 1 , further comprising a hook formed at the attachment surface and configured to couple the web with the body, wherein the hook comprises:
 a head portion having an upper surface with a rounded shape; and   a pillar portion connected to a lower surface of the head portion,   wherein the lower surface of the head portion is configured to have an area that is greater than that of a jointed surface of the pillar portion, and   wherein when the web is gripped by the hook, the head portion digs into a surface of the web and is then hooked to the web.
