The windowpane wiping apparatus 1 cleans dew condensation water on the windowpane 2 or dirt attached to the windowpane 2. In order to remove the liquid such as detergent liquid sprayed in order to remove the liquid so as not to stain the floor surface, the window glass wiping apparatus 1 includes a longitudinal wiper body 3 and a scraped liquid. And a container 4 for storing the water.

The wiper body 3 is a longitudinal member made of, for example, aluminum, plastic, or the like. The longitudinal wiper body 3 has a longitudinal elastic member along the longitudinal direction of the wiper body 3. Member 5 (elastic member 5 is, for example,
Spatula made of rubber is a wiper used for automobiles. ) Is provided, and the elastic member 5 comes into contact with the surface of the window glass 2 to scrape off the liquid on the window glass 2. Further, a portion of the wiper body 3 located on the opposite side of the portion of the wiper body 3 to which the elastic member 5 is attached, that is, the surface of the wiper body 2 opposite to the elastic member 5 (more specifically, the elastic member 5). Wiper body 2 opposite 5
(At substantially the center of the surface), a grip 31 to be gripped by hand is provided.

A receiving portion 6 is connected to one end of the wiper main body 1 having a long shape (the wiper main body 1 and the receiving portion 6 are connected to each other).
It is integrally formed and connected, or connected by being fixed by an adhesive or the like), and receives the liquid flowing down along the elastic member 5. The receiving portion 6 has a substantially concave shape, and is provided with an opening 61 so as to guide the liquid to a guide 7 described later. In addition, the receiving portion 6 includes
A guide member 62 having flexibility that guides the liquid to the receiving portion 6 by contacting the surface of the window glass 2 is provided.

The guide member 62 is made of, for example, rubber. Further, the bottom of the receiving portion 6 is inclined toward the opening 61 and has a substantially V-shape. The flexible guide member 62 can be brought into close contact with the surface of the window glass 2 as shown in FIG. 5, so that the liquid flowing down along the elastic member 5 can pass through the guide member 62 through the guide member 62. Receiving part 6
Can be more reliably guided.

The liquid received by the receiving portion 6 is guided to the above-described container 4 via the guide 7, and is collected in the container 4. The guide 7 is, for example, a pipe (a pipe or a passage). One end of the guide 7 is connected to the receiving portion 6 by bonding or the like, and the other end of the guide 7 is connected to the container 4 (more specifically, the container 7). , A male screw provided at the other end of the guide 7

Therefore, the window glass wiping apparatus 1 of this embodiment
According to this, the receiving portion 6 is connected to one end in the longitudinal direction of the wiper main body 3, the liquid flowing down along the elastic member 5 is received by the receiving portion 6, and the liquid received by the receiving portion 6 is transmitted through the guide 7. Since the liquid is guided by the container 4, the liquid on the window glass 2 can be scraped off by the elastic member 5, and at the time of scraping, the wiper body is not limited to a single direction from bottom to top as in the conventional case. As shown in FIG. 1, the wiper body 3 can be moved from top to bottom while moving it in the left-right direction or the left-right direction, or from bottom to top while moving in the left-right direction. Can be further improved.

(Embodiment 2) In the window glass wiping apparatus 1 of Embodiment 1 described above, the receiving portion 6 is connected to one end of the wiper main body 1 having a long shape. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, the receiving portion 6 is separated from the wiper main body 3, and the receiving portion 6 is positioned in the longitudinally extending direction of the elongated wiper main body. The container 4 and the wiper body 3 may be connected to each other by the connection portion 9 after receiving the liquid flowing down along. The guide 7 only has to guide the liquid received by the receiving portion 6 to the container 4. As shown in FIG. 6, a passage is provided inside a part of the connection portion 9, and the passage communicates with the guide 7. May also be
Although not shown, a guide 7 for guiding the liquid received by the receiving portion 6 to the container 4 and a connecting portion 9 for connecting the container 4 to the wiper body 3 may be separately provided. In the second embodiment, the same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted.

(Embodiment 3) In the window glass wiping apparatus 1 of Embodiments 1 and 2 described above, the container 4 and the receiving portion 6 are individually formed. However, as shown in FIG. The function and the function of the container may be integrated. That is, the container 4 ′ may be separated from the wiper body 3, located in the longitudinal extension direction of the wiper body 3, receive the liquid flowing down along the elastic member 5, and store the liquid. . Reference numeral 62 denotes a flexible guide member. The guide member 62 is provided on the container 4 ′ for guiding the liquid flowing down along the elastic member 5 to the container 4. In the third embodiment, the same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted.

[0017]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the receiving portion is connected to one end of the wiper body in the longitudinal direction, and receives the liquid flowing down along the elastic member at the receiving portion. Since the received liquid is guided to the container via the guide, the liquid on the window glass can be scraped off by the elastic member, and at the time of scraping, the wiper body is simply moved from bottom to top as in the conventional case. It is possible to work from top to bottom while moving the wiper body to the left or right, or to the left or right, or from bottom to top while moving it to the left or right, thus improving workability. Can be done.

According to the window glass wiping device of the second aspect, in addition to the effects of the first aspect of the present invention, a flexible guide member is brought into contact with the surface of the window glass to form an elastic member.
