DESCRIPTION
L'invention ressortit à un dispositif de nettoyage de surfaces.DESCRIPTION
The invention relates to a device for cleaning surfaces.
Les principales techniques de nettoyage sont le lavage, les ultrasons et l'époussetage. La surface à nettoyer est directement en contact avec, respectivement, le fluide de lavage, le bain d'excitation et un tampon d'absorption. Dans tous les cas, il faut que cet agent nettoyant soit au moins aussi propre que la surface à nettoyer, et même très propre dans les applications pour lesquelles on souhaite un nettoyage de qualité, ce qui est par exemple le cas quand on veut nettoyer les surfaces contaminées dans l'industrie nucléaire. I1 en résulte que l'agent nettoyant doit être remplacé très souvent, au prix d'une grosse production de déchets ou d'effluents.On constate encore que le nettoyage prend généralement beaucoup de temps quand il est minutieux, ce qui expose le personnel à des risques de santé dans l'application susmentionnée, et que l'emploi généreux de détergents ou de produits analogues qui favorisent la décomposition des impuretés libère par évaporation des gaz qui peuvent aussi être nocifs, surtout dans des endroits confinés. The main cleaning techniques are washing, ultrasound and dusting. The surface to be cleaned is in direct contact with, respectively, the washing fluid, the excitation bath and an absorption pad. In all cases, this cleaning agent must be at least as clean as the surface to be cleaned, and even very clean in the applications for which quality cleaning is desired, which is for example the case when it is desired to clean the contaminated surfaces in the nuclear industry. As a result, the cleaning agent must be replaced very often, at the cost of a large production of waste or effluents. It can also be seen that cleaning generally takes a long time when it is meticulous, which exposes the personnel to health risks in the above application, and that the generous use of detergents or similar products which promote the decomposition of impurities liberates by evaporation of gases which can also be harmful, especially in confined spaces.
C'est pour remédier à ces inconvénients que l'invention a été conçue. Elle appartient aux procédés par époussetage et peut s'appliquer au nettoyage rapide et économique d'à peu près toutes les surfaces dans des applications variées, bien qu'elle soit décrite ici, conformément à une activité importante de la déposante, pour le nettoyage d'enceintes étanches et contaminées dites boîtes à gants. It is to remedy these drawbacks that the invention was conceived. It belongs to the dusting processes and can be applied to the rapid and economical cleaning of almost all surfaces in various applications, although it is described here, in accordance with an important activity of the applicant, for the cleaning of waterproof and contaminated enclosures known as glove boxes.
L'invention concerne précisément un dispositif de nettoyage de surfaces, comprenant un tampon, caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend une cloche ouverte, un circuit d'aspiration débouchant dans la cloche, un support auquel le tampon est attaché, le support et le tampon étant placés à une ouverture de la cloche, et un moyen moteur reliant le support à la cloche et déplaçant le support et le tampon, le support étant transpercé par des trous joignant le tampon à l'intérieur de la cloche. The invention relates specifically to a device for cleaning surfaces, comprising a tampon, characterized in that it comprises an open bell, a suction circuit opening into the bell, a support to which the tampon is attached, the support and the tampon being placed at an opening of the bell, and a motor means connecting the support to the bell and moving the support and the tampon, the support being pierced by holes joining the tampon inside the bell.
On s'aperçoit que le phénomène essentiel qui intervient dans l'invention est une aspiration produite à travers le tampon et le support, qui facilite la collecte des particules de la surface et les retient sur le tampon. On peut donc utiliser sans inconvénient un tampon assez sale sans compromettre l'efficacité du nettoyage. It can be seen that the essential phenomenon which intervenes in the invention is a suction produced through the pad and the support, which facilitates the collection of particles from the surface and retains them on the pad. A fairly dirty pad can therefore be used without inconvenience without compromising the effectiveness of cleaning.
La figure unique dont on va aborder le commentaire et qui illustre une réalisation envisageable parmi d'autres de l'invention permettra de mieux saisir cette particularité ainsi que d'autres. The single figure, the commentary of which will be discussed and which illustrates one possible embodiment of the invention, among others, will make it easier to grasp this particular feature as well as others.
Un tampon 1 porte sur la surface à nettoyer 2. Il est de forme plate et pressé contre la surface à nettoyer par un support 3 qui appuie sur sensiblement toute sa surface et est lié à lui par un moyen de liaison amovible tel qu'un jeu de boucles 4 fixées à la face inférieure du support 3 et dans lesquelles on introduit des crochets 5 fixés à la face supérieure du tampon 1. Le support 3 est percé de part en part, suivant son épaisseur, par des trous 6 qui mettent donc en communication la face supérieure ou arrière du tampon 1 avec le volume qu'entoure une cloche 7 pourvue d'une ouverture 8 dirigée vers la surface à nettoyer 2 et qui entoure le tampon 1. Cependant, le tampon 1 est excentré de la cloche 7 de manière à laisser une fente 9 en arc de cercle entre l'ouverture 8 et le tampon 1. A pad 1 bears on the surface to be cleaned 2. It is flat in shape and pressed against the surface to be cleaned by a support 3 which presses on substantially its entire surface and is linked to it by a removable connection means such as a set loops 4 fixed to the underside of the support 3 and into which are hooks 5 attached to the upper face of the pad 1. The support 3 is drilled right through, depending on its thickness, by holes 6 which therefore put in communication the upper or rear face of the pad 1 with the volume surrounded by a bell 7 provided with an opening 8 directed towards the surface to be cleaned 2 and which surrounds the pad 1. However, the pad 1 is offset from the bell 7 of so as to leave a slot 9 in an arc between the opening 8 and the pad 1.
Cette disposition facilite la collecte de certaines particules arrachées de la surface directement par l'action d'un aspirateur 10 relié à l'intérieur de la cloche 7 par un conduit 11.This arrangement facilitates the collection of certain particles torn from the surface directly by the action of a vacuum cleaner 10 connected to the inside of the bell 7 by a conduit 11.
L'effet principal de l'aspiration réalisée à l'intérieur de la cloche 7 est cependant de produire un courant à travers le tampon 1 par l'intermédiaire des perçages 6 : les particules arrachées de la surface à nettoyer 2 par le tampon 1 ne sont ainsi pas susceptibles de retomber par gravité ou autrement, mais sont retenues sur lui et ne risquent pas de salir denouveau la surface à nettoyer 2. De plus, les vapeurs libérées par l'évaporation de solvants sont aussi aspirées. The main effect of the suction carried out inside the bell 7 is however to produce a current through the pad 1 via the holes 6: the particles torn from the surface to be cleaned 2 by the pad 1 do not are thus not likely to fall by gravity or otherwise, but are retained on it and are not likely to soil the surface to be cleaned again 2. In addition, the vapors released by the evaporation of solvents are also sucked up.
Le tampon 1 tourne sous l'action d'un moteur 12 fixé à la cloche 7 par une nervure 13 et pourvu d'un axe 14 auquel le support 3 est fixé. L'axe 14 traverse la paroi de fond de la cloche 7 par un perçage 15 équipé d'un joint d'étanchéité 16. The pad 1 rotates under the action of a motor 12 fixed to the bell 7 by a rib 13 and provided with a pin 14 to which the support 3 is fixed. The pin 14 passes through the bottom wall of the bell 7 by a bore 15 fitted with a seal 16.
Il est avantageux que l'axe 14 soit relié à une zone excentrée du support 3, ce qui permet de combiner un mouvement de va-et-vient au mouvement de rotation du tampon 1, pour simuler mieux le mouvement usuel d'époussetage. It is advantageous that the axis 14 is connected to an eccentric zone of the support 3, which makes it possible to combine a reciprocating movement with the rotational movement of the pad 1, to better simulate the usual dusting movement.
On procède en tenant la cloche 7 à la main et en la déplaçant sur la surface à nettoyer 2. Le tampon peut être un disque de 50 mm de diamètre en matière légèrement abrasive et peut être couramment vendu dans le commerce ; selon le cas, on pourra utiliser du coton hydrophile, un chiffon de textile, de la toile émeri, du papier de verre, de la paille de fer, pour mentionner des produits courants de plus en plus abrasifs. This is done by holding the bell 7 by hand and moving it over the surface to be cleaned 2. The pad can be a 50 mm diameter disc made of slightly abrasive material and can be commonly sold commercially; depending on the case, hydrophilic cotton, a textile cloth, emery cloth, sandpaper, iron wool, may be used to mention common products which are more and more abrasive.
Il est avantageux que le moteur 12 soit pneumatique pour cette application où la force de frottement est très variable. Le moteur 12 pourra alors avoir un débit voisin de celui de l'aspirateur 10 afin de ne pas déséquilibrer les circuits de régulation de la pression dans le cas où l'on travaille dans une enceinte close. It is advantageous for the motor 12 to be pneumatic for this application where the friction force is very variable. The motor 12 can then have a flow rate close to that of the vacuum cleaner 10 so as not to unbalance the pressure regulation circuits in the case where one works in a closed enclosure.
Pour une série de pièces déterminées à nettoyer, le nettoyage a duré 1 heure avec cet appareil contre de 5 à 8 environ avec des tampons simples ; les déchets ont été concentrés sur 10 à 15 tampons de 45 mm de diamètre, alors que 5 à 10 litres de tampons simples usagés ont été produits ; enfin, l'endroit confiné du nettoyage a dû être lavé toutes les 15 à 20 pièces, contre 3 ou 4 avec des tampons simples, à cause des impuretés arrachées, puis libérées et ayant retombé. On s' aperçoit donc des avantages importants de l'invention. For a series of parts determined to be cleaned, the cleaning lasted 1 hour with this device against 5 to 8 approximately with simple pads; the waste was concentrated on 10 to 15 pads 45 mm in diameter, while 5 to 10 liters of used simple pads were produced; finally, the confined area of the cleaning had to be washed every 15 to 20 pieces, against 3 or 4 with simple pads, because of the impurities torn off, then released and having fallen. We therefore realize important advantages of the invention.
