Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cleaning device for a paint roller, as used in painting.
  • paint rollers also known under the term of the painter roller or the paint roller, consist of a bow-like bent metal rod with handle and a roller or roller for applying wall paint.
  • the roller of a paint roller must be cleaned after use of the color to allow later reuse of the paint roller.
  • manual cleaning is expensive and often leads to undesirable contact with the paint.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning device for a paint roller, with which the roller of the paint roller can be cleaned effectively in a simple manner.
  • the proposed cleaning device consists of a tube open at both ends, into which a roll of a paint roller to be cleaned can be inserted, a first closure element for the detachable closure of one of the two tube openings, hereinafter referred to arbitrarily as the first tube opening, and a second closure element for the detachable closure the second pipe opening together.
  • the tube does not necessarily have to have a circular cross-section although this is preferred.
  • the first closure element which is preferably formed in the form of a lid, has on an inner side a clamping device which fixes the headband of the paint roller with the roller in a position in which the roller is inserted into the tube along the tube axis when the first tube opening is closed becomes.
  • the inner side is understood as the side of the closure element which is directed towards the tube during the closure.
  • the first closure element must in this case have a corresponding recess, for example a lateral slot, for the passage of the retaining clip.
  • the headband is the outside of the roller extending bow-shaped metal bar to which the handle is attached.
  • the first closure member is also provided with one or more outlet openings for washing liquid which can flow from the opposite second tube opening into the tube.
  • the second closure element is preferably designed such that it can be inserted into the tube in a form-fitting manner with the inside of the tube through the second tube opening and can be fixed in the tube at different depths.
  • the second closure element has a connection for the supply of Washing liquid, in particular for the supply of water, through a flow opening formed in this closure element.
  • a propeller is rotatably mounted about the tube axis and designed so that the washing liquid flowing into the tube via the flow opening causes the propeller to rotate and subsequently reaches the roller in order to clean it.
  • the flow opening can also be designed as a nozzle for this purpose in order to increase the flow rate at which the washing liquid impinges on the propeller.
  • a centering device for the roller is arranged, which centers the roller inserted into the tube and thus acts on the roller, for example by frictional engagement in the direction of rotation, that a rotation of the propeller is transmitted to the roller. In this way, the roller is placed on the supply of the washing liquid via the propeller in rotation about the tube axis. The rotation of the roller is achieved during the entire cleaning process exclusively via the propeller drive, through which the washing liquid is supplied.
  • the roller of a paint roller For cleaning the roller of a paint roller this must be used only with the headband in the corresponding clamping device of the first closure element. Subsequently, the roller is inserted into the tube and the tube is closed with the first closure element on one side. From the opposite side, the second closure element in one embodiment of the device is inserted so deeply into the tube that the roller with the centering device is centered and can be rotated by rotation of the centering device or the propeller in rotation. The second closure element is fixed in this position in the tube. Alternatively, the second closure element can already be fixed at a suitable position in the tube, so that then the roller is centered appropriately when completely inserted into the tube. Throughout the preparation, the paint roller can be held by the handle so that the user does not come into contact with the roller.
  • a water hose is connected to the connection of the second closure element and the water is turned on.
  • the water entering the pipe causes the propeller and thus the roller to rotate.
  • the water partly accumulates in the pipe and flows out of the pipe via the outlet openings on the first closure element.
  • the tube is brought into a nearly horizontal position during cleaning, so that the roller is at least partially immersed in the jammed water over its entire length and is cleaned by the rotation in the water, comparable to a washing process in a washing machine.
  • the tube can be placed, for example, horizontally or obliquely in a washbasin.
  • the cleaning progress can be judged on the basis of the degree of soiling of the water leaving the outlet openings. In general, a cleaning time of about one to two minutes will be sufficient. After this time the pipe will be in brought an upright position so that the roller is no longer immersed in water over its entire length. This increases the rotational speed of the roller with unchanged water supply, so that this compares to a spin cycle in a washing machine acts. Subsequently, the water is turned off and the roller can be removed by removing the first closure element from the tube.
  • the tube can also be kept in an approximately vertical position during the entire cleaning process.
  • sufficiently high water flow or by partial obstruction of the water drainage for example.
  • the cleaning device is placed with the outlet openings down on a base, it is achieved that the water backwater in the pipe extends over the entire roller. This allows a cleaning process in this position.
  • the cleaning device thus enables a simple, effective and for the user clean cleaning of paint rollers.
  • connection of the first closure element with the tube can be done for example via a screw, a snap closure or a bayonet.
  • the centering device has at least three, preferably four symmetrically extending arms with the inner edges facing the roller, wherein the inner edges, starting from the propeller, run apart from the tube axis.
  • the inner edges in contact with the roller should have the smallest possible contact surface with the roller, so that not a larger part of the roller is covered during cleaning by these edges.
  • the clamping device on the first closure element must ensure that the headband is sufficiently fixed with the roller for later cleaning in the tube.
  • a clamping device is used which acts on the two mutually perpendicular sections of the retaining clip immediately in front of the roller, of which one section runs on the axis of rotation and another perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the roller.
  • FIG. 1 shows an exploded view of an embodiment of the proposed cleaning device.
  • This cleaning device is composed of the tube 20, which is open on both sides, a first closure element 10 for closing a first tube opening 21 and a second closure element 30 for closing a second tube opening 22 of the tube 20.
  • the first closure element 10 is formed in this example cover-shaped and can be connected via a bayonet with the tube 20.
  • recesses 23 are introduced at equal intervals, in the corresponding projections 15 on the circumference of the first closure element 10 intervene.
  • the bayonet closure is realized via the correspondingly formed bayonet elements 16 on the first closure element 10.
  • the corresponding pin-shaped counterparts for this bayonet lock on the tube 20 are not shown in the figure.
  • the tube 20 After inserting the paint roller into the clamping device of the first closure element 10, the tube 20 is slipped over the roller of the paint roller and connected by the bayonet closure with the first closure element 10. For the lead out of the retaining clip, a slot 13 is formed laterally in the first closure element 10.
  • a propeller 32 is mounted rotatably about the axis of rotation of the tube 20 via an axis.
  • a centering device 33 Connected to this propeller 32 is a centering device 33, which centers the roller during insertion into the tube 20 and engages the roller so that a rotation of the propeller 32 is transmitted to the roller.
  • the centering device 33 in this case has four arms with inner edges or inner surfaces, which run apart in the direction of the roller of the tube axis apart to allow centering. These booms are in the example of FIG. 1 formed of rigid, elongated plastic plates, which are aligned with their inner edges to the tube axis and taper with increasing distance from the propeller 32.
  • the second closure element 30 For driving the propeller 32, the second closure element 30 has a flow opening, which is connected to a hose connection 31 for the supply of a washing liquid on the outside of the second closure element 30. If, for example, a water hose is connected to this hose connection 31 and the water supply is turned on, the propeller 32 is driven or rotated by the water impinging on the blades of the propeller 32. Thus, a roller inserted into the tube 20 is also set in rotation via the propeller 32 and the centering device 33.
  • the second closure element 30 furthermore has a fixing device with which this closure element, which is formed in a form-fitting manner with the inside of the tube 20, can be fixed at different depths in the tube 20.
  • this fixing device is formed by two slides 35, which can be pushed over a longitudinally shaped in the contact area with the sliders 35 in cross-section shaped rotary member 34 by half a rotation over the edge of the first closure member 30.
  • a knob 36 is placed on the pin-shaped rotary member 34. The knob also serves to move the second closure element 30 in the tube 20 as needed, for example, to fix it elsewhere, or to insert after removal of the handle 37 in the tube 20 or pull out of the tube 20.
  • the handle 37 is inserted into corresponding recesses or holes in the tube, which in the FIG. 1 are indicated at the second pipe opening 22.
  • This handle 37 serves on the one hand to transport the Cleaning device or as a handle for the cleaning device and prevents on the other side unintentional pulling out of the second closure element 30 used from the tube 20th
  • FIG. 2 shows the first closure element 10 with a view of the inside in detail.
  • the clamping device is here formed of two clamping elements 11, 12, of which the clamping element 11 serves to fix a portion of the holding bracket of the paint roller, which runs on the axis of rotation of the roller, while the clamping element 12 is used to fix the perpendicular thereto extending portion.
  • the two clamping elements 11, 12 are, for example, made of plastic and have a snap mechanism for inserting the retaining clip. This snap mechanism is designed so that he due to its tension headband different strap diameter, as they are commercially available, can fix.
  • the projections 15 and the elements 16 of the bayonet closure can be seen, which engage in corresponding counter-elements on the tube 20.
  • the tube 20 is preferably made of transparent plastic.
  • FIG. 3 shows the fixing mechanism of the second closure element 30 with the two slides 35 and in the region of contact with the slides in cross-section elongated rotary member 34.
  • the two slides 35 radially over the Edge of the second closure member 30 is pushed outwards and can clamp in this way the second closure member 30 in the tube 20.
  • the ratio between the length and width of the elongated cross section of the rotary member 34 is chosen so that the clamping action is achieved after half rotation of the rotary member 34, since this corresponds to one of the two stable positions of the rotary member 34, which also by the during clamping over the Slider 35 on the rotary member 34 exerted pressure is not changed.
  • FIG. 3 is also the decentralized arrangement of the hose connection 31 can be seen. This decentralized arrangement is required for driving the propeller 32.
  • FIG. 4 shows finally a side view, partly in cross-section, of the assembled cleaning device with a paint roller fixed therein.
  • two paint rollers of different sizes are indicated, a paint roller with a larger roller 40 (solid lines) and a paint roller with a smaller roller 43 (dashed lines).
  • the centering device 33 can be seen in this illustration in two positions, depending on the size of the roller used.
  • the second closure element 30 When cleaning the smaller roller 43, the second closure element 30 must be inserted deeper into the tube 20 to center the smaller roller 43 accordingly and to produce the required frictional engagement for the rotary drive.
  • the paint roller is fixed on the retaining clip 41 in the clamping device (clamping elements 11, 12) of the first closure element 10.
  • the tube 20 is connected to the first closure element 10 via the bayonet mechanism.
  • the second closure element 30 already located in the tube is displaced so far in the tube 20 until the centering unit 33 engages suitably on the roller 40 or 43 of the paint roller.
  • the second closure element 30 is fixed in this position with the fixing device in the tube.
  • the paint roller can be held by the user on the handle 42.
  • a water hose 50 is connected to the hose connection 31 of the second closure element 30 and the water is turned up for cleaning.
  • the roller 40 or 43 is thereby rotated and cleaned according to the washing machine principle.
  • FIG. 5 shows the cleaning device with the inserted roller 40 again in an oblique view.
