a first extension in the longitudinal direction;

a second extension in the transverse direction, the first extension being greater than the second extension;

two longitudinal sides;

a front transverse side;

a rear transverse side; and

at least one substantially bow-shaped handle,

wherein the at least one handle extends in the longitudinal direction and is pivotable in the transverse direction, and

wherein a spout of the bucket comprises a self-contained through-hole and is arranged in the front transverse side.

2. The bucket according to claim 1 , wherein a ratio of the first extension to the second extension is ≥1.5.

3. The bucket according to claim 1 , wherein the through-hole comprises a drip projection comprising a drip shield, which extends along a bottom of the through-hole.

4. The bucket according to claim 3 , wherein the drip projection is integrally formed with a border of the through-hole.

5. The bucket according to claim 4 , wherein the drip projection comprises a separately produced component part and is arranged in the through-hole in a liquid-tight manner.

6. The bucket according to claim 5 , wherein the drip projection is arranged in the through-hole so as to be nondestructively detached as a result of a frictional and/or interlocking connection.

7. The bucket according to claim 5 , wherein the drip projection comprises a marking that extends in the bucket and indicates a maximum permissible fill level of the bucket.

8. The bucket according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one handle is hinged to the corresponding transverse sides by a front hinge and a rear hinge, and

wherein the spout is arranged beneath the front hinge.

9. The bucket according to claim 8 , wherein, when viewed in the transverse direction, the hinges are each arranged centrally on the corresponding transverse sides.

10. The bucket according to claim 8 , wherein, when viewed in the longitudinal direction, the at least one handle comprises a substantially anti-slip first gripping region on a side facing away from the spout.

11. The bucket according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one handle comprises two handles that extend substantially in parallel with one another, each of the two handles being hinged to one of the longitudinal sides by a front hinge and a rear hinge, and

wherein, when viewed in the transverse direction, the two handles are configured to be positioned against one another above the bucket in order to carry it.

12. The bucket according to claim 11 , wherein the two handles each comprise, centrally in the longitudinal direction, a second gripping region that comprises a carrying zone.

13. The bucket according to claim 1 , further comprising a wringing-out device for a piece of cleaning equipment.

14. The bucket according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one handle comprises a clamp-shaped receptacle for a handle of a piece of cleaning equipment.
