The invention claimed is: 1. A wringer device for a mop, comprising: a basket-like receptacle in which the mop is configured to be wrung out by being pushed in; a support configured to fasten the wringer device in a mop bucket; and a guide configured to permit translational movement of the receptacle relative to the support, the guide comprising columnar projections and depressions that are congruent to the columnar projections, wherein the receptacle is configured to be guided in the support such that the receptacle is movable in translation in an insertion direction of the mop between a first position in which the receptacle is spaced apart from the support and a second position in which the receptacle is in contact with the support. 2. The wringer device according to claim 1 , wherein the receptacle is configured to be moved counter to a force of a spring. 3. The wringer device according to claim 1 , further comprising spring elements configured to be deformed during relative movement of the receptacle when the mop is pushed in. 4. The wringer device according to claim 3 , wherein the spring elements are formed from the support. 5. The wringer device according to claim 3 , wherein the spring elements are assigned punching members configured to deform the spring elements when the receptacle moves. 6. The wringer device according to claim 1 , wherein the receptacle is held in the support in an anti-loss manner by snap-in hooks. 7.
