Definitions
- the invention relates to device for cleaning dirty shoe soles, using a dry method of cleaning.
- the device can be positioned at the entrance of rooms and areas, where the depositing of dirt from outside is undesirable, such as residential dwellings, offices, doctors' surgeries, hospitals, business premises, shopping areas, schools, communal areas, historical buildings, industrial premises, etc.
- doormats composed either of rigit, brush-like bristles or a series of rigit strips, running either parallel to each other or organized into a pattern. This are made from various materials, the commonly used being rubber, metal or plastic.
- the drawback of using a doormat consists chiefly in insufficient contact between shoe and doormat, while walking across the doormat. Pepole in a hurry or unconcerned about wiping their feet bring the dirt on their shoes in. Futher known devices for cleaning shoe soles incorporate moveable parts, which have the function to dislodge and remove dirt from the shoe soles.
- RU 2096017 produced a device with parallel runnings belts, whose cleaning equipment passes throught a liquid bath located in the lower part of the device. Downside of this is a wet shoe sole liable to slip acidentally and thus being potentially dangerous.
- RU 2096017 produced a device with parallel running belts, the cleaning parts of which pass throught first washing unit and then a drying unit.
- CZ PV 1069-92 produced a device where following a wet unit, equipped with special in disinfectant saturated belts, moving between the grid in an alternating fashion, is situated a dry unit for the drying of the lower part of the shoes.
- a device for cleaning the shoe soles in which the body of the cleaner houses a mechanism for ensuring a shifting motion of the cleaning parts and where the cleaning parts are fitted on at least two side by side placed continuous belts.
- Coninuous belts are in contact with supporting wheels and driving wheels and both wheels belonging to the same continuous belt are placed on shafts parallel to each other.
- the basis of invention is, that at least two continuous belts are moveable, one to each other, in a opposite directions and each continuous belt for the first direction of movement has the driving wheel, firmly fitted to the second shaft and the supporting wheel, loosely rotating on the first shaft, and each continuous belt for the second direction of movement has the driving wheel firmly fitted to the first shaft and the supporting wheel, loosely rotating on the second shaft.
- the first shaft is equipped with the first toothed wheel, which is in contact whith the teeth on the first side of two-sided toothed belt and the second shaft is equipped with the second toothed wheel, which is in contact with the teeth of the second side of two-sided toothed belt.
- the two-sided toothed belt is connected to the drive unit.
- Inner space of the body of the cleaner is connected to the opening of suction apparatus, which consists of ventilator and filter.
- a further advantage of the two-way system is that by slightly altering the position of shoe to belt, even a highly textured shoe sole with deep cut grooves can be thoroughly cleaned.
- the advantage of using a two sided toothed belt for a two way system considerably simplifies the manufacture of this device, reduces the noise level and ensures reliability in an even highly polluted enviroment.
- a further advantage, which has to do with the built in suction mechanism is that the inner area of the device is being kept free of circulating dust despite the dry cleaning parts moving in opposite direction to each other.
- the device can be constructed as fully portable and can be used in less or highly frequented areas and positioned in close proximity to the space required to be kept clean.
- Device for cleaning shoe soles consists of a body 1 of the cleaner, of which cleaning parts 2, brushes, in this particular example, are protruding on the upper side, and of mechanism 3 to provide for the cleaning parts 2 shifting motion.
- the cleaning parts 2 are located on side by side placed six continuous belts 4,4' .
- the adjacent continuous belts 4,4' move in the direction opposite to each other.
- Each continuous belt 4,4' is taken in contact with the supporting wheel 5 and the driving wheel 7 .
- Wheels 5,7 pertaining to the same continuous belt 4,4' are fitted on shafts 6,6' in parallel each to other.
- the driving wheel 7 of the continuous belt 4 dedicated for the first direction of motion is connected to the second shaft 6' , while the supporting wheel 5 is rotating on the first shaft 6.
- the driving wheel 7 of the continuous belt 4' dedicated for the second direction of motion is connected to the first shaft 6, while the respective supporting wheel 5 is rotating on the second shaft 6'.
- the first shaft 6 has got a first toothed wheel 8, fitted at one end.
- First toothed wheel 8 is in mesh with the second side 12 of a two-sided toothed belt 9.
- Second shaft 6' has got a second toothed wheel 8' fitted at the end.
- Second toothed wheel 8' is in mesh with the first side 12 of the two-sided toothed belt 9.
- the two-sided toothed belt 9 is connected to the drive 10 .
- Below the continuous belts 4,4' there are collecting trays 18 , between which a mechanical partition 17 is located.
- the inner space 13 of the body 1 of the cleaner is connected to the opening 14 of suction apparatus, which consist of ventilator 15 located inside the body 1 of the cleaner and driven by a motor 19, and a filter 16 connected to the ventilator 15 outlet.
- Filter 16 is located outside the body 1 of the cleaner.
- the device for cleaning shoe soles having been switched on, the shafts 6,6' , driving wheels 7 connected to them included, rotate in mutually opposite sense.
- the driving wheels 7 of adjacent continuous belts 4,4' are connected to different shafts 6,6' , the adjacent belts 4,4' will shift in mutually opposite directions.
- Coarse dirt is removed from the cleaning parts 2 by scrubbing the same against the mechanical partition 17 and falls down in the dirt collecting trays 18, from which it should be removed periodically.
- Airborne dirt is exhausted from the inner space 13 of the body 1 by the fan 15 and trapped in the filter 16.
- the invention may also be applied to tyre cleaning, for example, prior to the treatment of a car in a carwash or before a tyre is taken apart from the wheel, or to other objects with textured surface.
