Description

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cleaning tool used for outdoor cleaning such as cleaning of gutters and roads and for storing dust and the like. 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when cleaning a side gutter, a diving tool having shovels or upright walls formed on both sides and a rear part of a shovel-shaped rake face has been used to remove muddy soil and dust accumulated in the grooves. Had gone by. In addition, when cleaning on the street, fallen leaves, dust and the like are removed with a commonly used broom. [0003] When the cleaning operation of the gutter is performed by a shovel, mud and dirt accumulated in the ditch are scooped together with the sewage, so that the mud and dirt stabilize on the rake face of the shovel. If the rake face of the shovel is slightly inclined without being placed in the state, muddy soil and dirt flow down together with the sewage, making cleaning work difficult. When a rake having shovel-shaped rake surfaces with upright walls formed on both sides and a rear portion is used, mud and dirt, etc., together with sewage will fall from the rake surface unless the rake surface is inclined forward. However, sewage is also raised on the side of the gutter along with mud and dirt, so that the sewage flows and spreads on the road, and the surrounding dirt becomes severe. [0005] Next, if the cleaning work on the road is performed by using a commonly used broom and dust, when the wind is strong, the fallen leaves and dusts that have entered the dust are blown out of the dust.
Cleaning the corner is wasted.
There is also a dustpan with a lid, but this dustpan is made of metal and heavy, and the price is high. Also, if fallen leaves or dirt accumulates in recesses or low places on the road surface where water puddles etc. accumulate, if you store it in a dustpan with a broom, sewage will enter together and cleaning work will not be performed inside the dustpan, so cleaning work There was a problem that was difficult to remove. In view of the above, the present invention provides good drainage and contains garbage even when mud soil, fallen leaves, and other garbage are stored together with sewage during outdoor cleaning such as cleaning of gutters and roads. An object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning tool that can be easily cleaned without being ejected from a dust receiving port or blown by a wind during the operation. [0007] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a cleaning tool according to the present invention is provided with an edge frame at an opening edge of a dust receiving opening of a mesh-like storage bag having an opened dust receiving opening. It is characterized in that a handle is provided on the edge frame, and a handle is provided on the bottom of the storage bag body. According to the present invention having such a configuration, when mud or garbage or the like scooped with a shovel from the garbage receiving port or garbage swept with a broom is put into the storing bag body, the storing bag body becomes mesh-like. Therefore, even if garbage and the like are stored together with the wastewater in the storage bag, the wastewater flows out of the mesh, so that the cleaning operation becomes easy without remaining in the storage bag. Further, when the garbage or the like enters the storage bag body, the storage bag body hangs down due to the weight of the garbage or the like, so that the garbage inside does not go out of the storage bag body unless it is turned upside down. [0009] Even light garbage such as fallen leaves and paper debris will not be blown off by the wind when stored in a bag-like shape. Furthermore, after storing garbage and the like in the storage bag body, when transporting to the discharge place, if the handle is grasped and the edge frame is changed from the horizontal state to the vertical state, the opening of the storage bag body is closed by the edge frame, No garbage or the like inside the garbage can be taken out of the garbage receiving port, which facilitates transportation. When discharging the dust inside the storage bag, holding the handle at the bottom of the storage bag and turning the storage bag upside down, the dust inside the storage bag can be easily discharged from the dust receiving port. Is done. An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the cleaning tool of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an enlarged sectional view of the cleaning tool with a part thereof omitted. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a mesh-like storage bag having a dust receiving opening 2 opened. The storage bag 1 is formed of a nylon member, a vinyl member, or the like. The mesh only needs to be large enough to discharge water, and is preferably as small as possible. Further, a rectangular frame 3 is attached to the edge of the dust receiving port 2. The material of the edge frame 3 is made of plastic, metal or the like, and the cross-sectional shape is formed in a thin and thin plate-like body. A rod-shaped handle 4 is fixed to the upper cross member 3A of the edge frame 3, and a ring-shaped handshake 5 is provided at the upper end of the handle 4. In addition, the lower cross member 3B of the edge frame 3 has its front edge inclined forward and downward so that the lower cross member 3B of the dust receiving port is grounded and dust and the like are easily entered when dust and the like are stored. You can also. The length of the upper cross member 3A and the lower cross member 3B of the edge frame 3 is shorter than the width of the side groove. The edge frame 3 is not limited to a square, and the cross-sectional shape of the edge frame 3 is not limited to a plate. A method of attaching the storage bag 1 to the edge frame 3 is as follows. The front and back of the storage bag 1 near the mouth end are provided with a reinforcing cloth 6 formed in a belt shape with a vinyl member or the like near the mouth end of the storage bag 1. And the reinforcing cloth 6 on the front and back is fixed with an adhesive or the like. Then, the edge of the mouth is turned outward from the inside of the edge frame 3 to surround the edge frame 3. A hole 7 is made at a position corresponding to the handle 4, and a cut 8 is provided from the hole 7 toward the edge of the mouth.
