However, the conventional whipping tool 61 has the following problems. That is, while this type of whipping tool 61 is used in most of the bathroom, there are often no hooks suitable for hooking the ring 64 in the bathroom. Therefore, there was a case where the whipping tool 61 after use was unavoidably placed in a recessed portion of a window frame in the bathroom or on an accessory stand installed in the bathroom. In such a case, the whipping tool main body 62 was poorly drained. There was a risk of becoming unclean and moldy. Even when the ring 64 is hung on the hook to suspend the whipping tool 61, the tape 63 that connects the ring 64 and the whipping tool body 62 is made of cloth, and thus is difficult to dry, and this tape 63 may be moldy. was there.

When the foaming tool 61 is used and the foamed foam is transferred from the foaming tool main body 62 to the palm of the hand, the foaming tool main body 62 is held while holding the ring 64 or the like with one hand as shown in FIG. Slide the other hand that grips toward the other end of the whipping tool main body 62 (in the direction of the arrow in the figure) to squeeze the foam from the whipping tool main body 62 and receive the squeezed foam with the same palm. I needed to. Therefore, even if a large amount of foam is created, a part of the foam may be dropped onto the bathroom floor.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and it is possible to transfer the foam that has stood up at the time of use to the palm without dropping it, and after use, hook or the like in the bathroom. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a whipping tool that can be suspended even when there is no such thing and can be kept clean.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, a whipping device according to the present invention comprises a whipping device body made of a net material and a suction cup attached to one end of the whipping device body. It is characterized by that. Moreover, in the said structure, the whipping tool main body and the suction cup are connected through the connection band made from a synthetic resin.

[0008]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION A whipping tool according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. This foaming tool, which is generally designated by reference numeral 1 in FIG. 1, is a foaming tool body 3 formed in a bag shape using a cylindrical net material 2, and a synthetic resin at one end of this foaming tool body 3. Band-shaped connecting band 4
And a suction cup 5 attached via a (coupling member). A protrusion 7 having a through hole 6 for inserting a connecting band is integrally formed on the back surface of the suction cup 5.

Next, the structure of the whipping tool 1 will be described in detail along with the manufacturing steps shown in FIGS. FIG. 2 shows the net material 2 that constitutes the whipping tool body 3. The net material 2 is made of a synthetic resin such as polyethylene as a raw material, and is formed by integrally molding a large number of relatively fine meshes having a size of about 1.5 to 3 mm. The net material 2 is a long tube. By cutting the shaped thing into appropriate dimensions,
It is formed in a tubular shape with both ends open. In this embodiment, as shown by the arrow in FIG. 2, the net material 2 is folded back in half from its one end side while being inverted.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 3, the suction cup 5 is previously connected to the ring-shaped retaining member 8 made of metal or synthetic resin by the connecting band 4. In this embodiment, as the connecting band 4, a synthetic resin cable tie generally used for binding electric wires is used. That is, the cable tie has a band-shaped band portion 4a and a lock portion 4b formed on the base end side of the band portion 4a. A hole into which the band portion 4a can be inserted from the tip side is formed in the lock portion 4b, and in the hole,
A lock mechanism (not shown) that locks the inserted band portion 4a to prevent it from being pulled out is provided. With the band portion 4a of this cable tie inserted into the through hole 6 of the suction cup 5 and the inner hole of the retaining member 8, the band portion 4a is inserted into the lock portion 4b from the distal end side, whereby the suction cup 5 and the retaining member are retained. 8
A ring-shaped connecting band 4 for connecting and is formed.

After connecting the suction cup 5 and the retaining member 8 as described above, this connecting body is inserted through the one end opening 2a of the net member 2 folded back in a double-cylindrical shape as shown in FIG. The folded end of the net material 2 is the other end opening 2b, and the one end opening 2a is the opening in which the open end portions of both ends of the net material 2 in the state before being folded back are overlapped. Further, when inserting the connected body of the suction cup 5 and the retaining member 8 into the one end opening 2a, the suction cup 5 and the connecting band 4 enter the net material 2 through the one end opening 2a, and a part of the retaining member 8 is It stays in a state where it has come out from the opening 2a.

Then, from the above state, the position near the one end opening 2a of the net material 2 is bound by the binding member 9. The binding member 9 may be a thread or a string, but in this embodiment, the same cable tie as that used as the connecting band 4 is used as the binding member 9. By securely binding the binding member 9, the one end opening 2a of the net member 2 is closed as shown in FIG. 4, and the intermediate position of the connecting band 4 is bound by the binding member 9, so that the suction cup 5 or the retaining member is prevented. 8 is prevented from passing through the binding member 9 and coming off. In addition, the net material 2 is prevented from falling out of the binding member 9 due to the tightening force of the binding member 9. Therefore, by turning the net material 2 inside out from the state of FIG. 4, the whipping tool 1 shown in FIG. 1 is completed.

Next, the manner of use of the whipping tool 1 constructed as above will be described. When foaming with this whipping tool 1, as in the case of the above-mentioned conventional whipping tool 61, soap content is attached to the whipping tool body 3 by rolling soap soaked with water, or water is preliminarily impregnated. After dropping an appropriate amount of liquid face wash, body soap, etc. on the whisk body 3, whisk the whisk body 3 with the palms of both hands. At this time, it is possible to perform the whipping work while the suction cup 5 is adsorbed to the wall surface in the bathroom, the bathtub, etc. By doing so, both hands can be used for the whipping work, so that the soap is accidentally dropped. You can prevent this.

In addition, when the foam that has risen is transferred to the palm of the hand, the suction cup 5 is attached to the upper end surface 10 of the bath 10 as shown in FIG.
If it is made to adsorb | suck to a etc., a foam can be squeezed out of the whipping tool main body 3 with both hands. Then, it is possible to grasp the foaming tool main body 3 with one hand while squeezing out the foam and to receive the squeezed foam with the palm of the other hand. Therefore, even if a large amount of foam is created, part of the foam does not drop onto the bathroom floor surface, and the entire volume of foam can be transferred to the palm and used for face washing or the like.

Furthermore, after use, after lightly washing the whisk tool body 3 with water, the suction cup 5 is attached to the wall surface (tile surface, etc.) in the bathroom.
The whipping tool 1 can be suspended while being adsorbed on the. Therefore, even if there is no hook for locking in the bathroom, it can be stored in a suspended state, so that the whipping tool body 3 can be drained well and prevented from becoming unclean or moldy. Becomes

Furthermore, since the connecting band 4 for connecting the suction cup 5 and the whipping tool body 3 is made of synthetic resin, unlike the conventional case where a cloth tape is used, it can be used in a humid bathroom. Even if it is hung, there is no risk of mold growing on the connecting band 4.

Needless to say, the whipping device of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, although the synthetic resin net material 2 is used in the above description, the net material is a yarn made of natural fibers or synthetic fibers. It may be knitted or woven (that is, a knitted or woven net material). The shape of the net material is not limited to the tubular shape, and may be any shape. Further, in the above description, the net material 2 is used by folding back in half, but it may be used without folding back.
On the contrary, it may be folded back into three or more and used. It is also conceivable that a ring for squeezing bubbles is externally fitted to the body of the whisk. Furthermore, in the above description, since a commonly used cable tie is used as the connecting band 4, the manufacturing process can be made efficient and the cost can be reduced, but the connecting band is not limited to the cable tie. It is also conceivable to use a connecting band in which both ends are fixed by heat welding to form an annular shape. Furthermore, although the connection band 4 is used for connection in the above, the whisk tool body 3 and the suction cup 5 may be connected via a connection member of any shape other than the connection band. It is also conceivable to employ a structure in which the whisk body and the suction cup are directly connected without using a connecting member.

[0018]

As described above, according to the whipping tool according to the present invention, when the frothed foam is transferred from the whipping tool body to the palm, the suction cup is in a state of being adsorbed on the wall surface in the bathtub or the bathroom. For example, you can use both hands to squeeze out the foam from the whipping tool body. Then, while holding the whipping tool body with one hand and squeezing out the foam, you can catch the squeezed foam with the palm of the other hand. It is possible to transfer the entire amount of foam to the palm and use it for face washing without dropping it on the surface. Further, after the whipping tool is used, the whipping tool can be hung while the suction cup is adsorbed on the wall surface or the like in the bathroom. Therefore, even if there is no hook for locking in the bathroom, it can be stored in a suspended state, and it is possible to prevent drainage of the whipping tool main body and prevent it from becoming dirty or moldy. .

Further, in the case where the whisk tool main body and the suction cup are connected via a connecting band made of synthetic resin, unlike the case where they are connected via a cloth tape, even if they are suspended in a humid bathroom. The advantage is that there is no risk of mold growing on the connecting band.
