Definitions

  • the purpose of this industrial invention patent is a special device for washing and/or polishing sports footwear and the like. In particular it is designed for footwear used for sports or work activities on muddy or sandy terrain or the like.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the above-indicated problems and in particular to have conceived and built a device that perfectly cleans footwear and removes all muddy deposits or residue and the like above all from the sole but also from the outer side of the upper.
  • One of the advantages achieved by the invention in question is that it has eliminated moving mechanical parts such as those of the already-mentioned motorized rotating brushes. This eliminates the need to connect the device to an electricity supply and consequently eliminates any possibility of electrical dispersions in a device that delivers a certain quantity of water.
  • the device according to the invention totally free of moving mechanical parts, in addition to being of simple conception and while still being extremely efficient, is not subject to any type of wear except for brush wear and the brushes, among other things, are very easy to replace.
  • a device for washing and/or polishing sports footwear or the like characterized by the fact that it is composed of a hollow containing structure basically with a box shape with chamfered sides that includes a series of brushes placed in groups that are preferably interchangeable and modular and are in particular positions, and a series of ducts for delivering water and/or polish or the like. These ducts connect to a supply outlet which can connect to a source of water and/or to a device for dispensing polishing liquid or grease or the like.
  • number 1 indicates a complete device for cleaning and/or polishing footwear which is preferably but not necessarily of the sports footwear type or is in any case used on muddy terrain or the like and that has soles or external parts with extremely corrugated shapes and which therefore collect a large quantity of mud, sand or other similar deposits.
  • Device 1 is consequently composed of hollow containing structure 2 with a basically box shape with chamfered sides and which houses several side brushes 3 and lower brushes 4 which are fastened in groups and all aim towards the center of the structure itself.
  • side brushes 3 are placed on the upper side edge of structure 1 and in a manner so that the bristle part of the brushes is placed in a basically horizontal position with its own end slightly sloped downwards and is aimed towards the center of the structure.
  • a special support 5' is fastened in the upper section and is designed to contain duct 6 which has delivery holes 7 that aim towards and above the brushes themselves.
  • Lower brushes 4 are placed in a vertical position and in two parallel flanking groups that aim upwards.
  • the lower brushes are supported by brackets 8 fastened at the base of the support structure.
  • the two parallel rows of brushes are slightly detached from each other to improve drainage of material removed from the shoes towards the bottom.
  • Central thru duct 9 is installed between the two parallel groups of lower brushes 4. Holes 10 for delivering water are machined in this duct at regular intervals.
  • Central duct 9 is placed in a slightly lower position compared to the upper end of brushes 4 and also acts as a support for the footwear while it is being processed. Both side duct 6 and central duct 9 are intercommunicating and are connected to a supply outlet that can be a source of water or a device for dispensing liquid grease or other products for treating footwear.
  • auxiliary tank 11 which, through duct 12, is introduced in ducts 6 and 9 by actuating dispensing pump 13 equipped with control push-button 14.
  • the device that has been described, as can be seen, may be used in two different functions: the first, connected to a water pipe, permits washing and removal of mud from the footwear.
  • the second in combination with a grease tank and its dispensing pump, permits footwear to be coated with grease or other similar products that give it polish or make it waterproof.
  • the shoe can be introduced into a second similar device, which may be flanked with the first, and which in this case is designed to deliver-liquid grease or other polishing product, delivered by pressing push-button 14. Polishing processes are like that described for the previous washing process and now the footwear will be perfectly clean and polished.
  • Another advantage is that the muddy deposits that are removed are conveyed by slide 15 to a removal zone placed below the appliance itself.
  • Another advantage is represented by the fact that the brushes, when their bristles become worn, are easily replaced by simply removing them from their seats and inserting another brush in place of the previous one.
  • the device in question may be designed to be connected with forced air components, even using hot air, which permit footwear being treated to undergo a drying phase as well.
