Description

[発明の属する技術分野]
【001】
生活用品関連 風呂場の洗浄技術
【002】
[従来の技術]
従来風呂場のタイルや風呂桶(浴槽)を清掃する場合、屈んだり立ち上がったりしながら、たわしやスポンジ、清掃用ブラシなどを使って、これに洗剤を付けながら人力で清掃面を擦り、最後にホースで水を流して仕上げを行っていた。
【003】
[発明が解決しようとする課題]
風呂場のタイル及び風呂桶の清掃の課題は下記の通り。
(1) 人力で清掃面を擦るため、清掃する人に掛かる肉体的な負担が大きい。
(2) 直接清掃面を擦る作業のため、体を清掃面に近づける必要があり、屈んだり立ち上がったり姿勢をかえる必要があり体に負担がかかる。又屈んだ姿勢での作業は肉体的に負担が大きい。
(3) 「たわしやブラシに石鹸水をつける→清掃面を擦る→仕上げに水を流す」作業を個々に行う必要がある。
【004】
[課題を解決するための手段]
(1)水道水の水流を動力として使用する。
水道水の水流を回転用のブレードに当て、ブレードを回転させ、ブレードの先に付いているブラシを回転させる。この回転するブラシで清掃面を擦る。“洗い”モードではこの水流(ブレードを回転させるために使用する水流)に洗剤液を混入し、清掃面に吹きつけ、この洗剤液の供給とブラシによるブラッシングにより清掃面を洗浄する。“仕上げ”モードではこの水流には洗剤液を混入せず、水だけを清掃面に吹き付け、ブラッシングする。人が握るグリップと清掃面に当てるフラシの間の距離は人間工学的に妥当なように設定し、人が楽な姿勢で清掃できるようにする。
(2)電動モータを動力として使用する。
ブラシを回転させる動力として電動モータを使用する。 その他水道水の供給、洗剤液の混入法等は“(1)水道水の水流を動力として使用する”場合と同じである。
【005】
[発明実施の形態]
[実施例]
(1)水道水の水流を動力とする例(図1により説明する)
図の、向かって左側から水道水の供給を受ける。 水を流す管(符号5)に入った水道水は水流切り替えコック(符号13)を操作することにより水流制御部(符号14)の機能によりOFF,洗剤、低圧、高圧のようにいくつかの水圧(従って水量)が制御される。(図3)”OFF”を選択した場合水は流れない。“洗剤”を選択した場合、水量は比較的少なく、洗剤を使った洗浄に適した水量に設定してある。“低圧”を選択した場合、“洗剤”の状態よりは水量が多いが比較的少ない水量としてある。 “高圧”を選択した場合は水量が多い状態にしてある。水流制御部(符号14)で制御された水は水を流す管(符号5)を通り、回転用ブレード(図2)に当たり、同ブレードを回転軸の周りに回転する。同ブレードの先に付いているブラシ(符号1)はブレードと一体のため、ブレードが回転すればブラシも回転する。この回転するブラシで清掃面を擦る。水量によってブラシの回転速度は制御される。洗浄は“洗い”及び“流し”モードの2つのモードがある。
“洗い”モードではまづ水流切り替えコックで“OFF”を選択し、水流を止め、押しボタン(符号6)を数回押し、タンク(符号9)内の水に溶かした洗剤(符号28)を水を流す管(符号5)の中に押し出す。このポンプの原理は押しボタン(符号6)を押すと、弁(符号8)と壁の隙間がなくなり、弁(符号8)が下に下がることによりタンク(符号9)内の空気が圧縮され、タンク内の空気圧があがる。タンク内の空気圧が上がると水に溶かした洗剤(符号28)は管(符号10)を通って水を流す管(符号5)の中に押し出される。押しボタン(符号20)にかける力をゼロにするとスプリング(符号25)により、押しボタンも弁(符号8)も元の位置に戻る。元の位置に戻る時、弁(符号8)と壁面の間には隙間ができて、タンク内の圧力は外気圧と同じになる。水を流す管(符号5)の中には弁(符号12)があり、水を流す管(符号5)の中に押し出された水に溶かした洗剤の逆流を防止する。次に水流切り替えコック(符号13)で”洗剤“を選択する。”洗剤“を選択すると水を流す管内を水が流れ始め、洗剤を含んだ水が管の右端から噴出し、ブレード(符号2)を回転させる。ブレードの先に付いたブラシの回転と噴出した洗剤を含んだ水により洗浄面を洗浄する。“流し”モードでは、洗剤の投入なしに、水流切り替えコック(符号13)で“低圧”又は“高圧”を選択して水流を制御して、水のみを流しながら、この水流とブラシの回転により洗浄面の洗剤を落とす。
(2)電動モータを動力とする例(図5で説明する)
清掃用のブラシの回転に使う動力を電動モータにする以外は水道水の水流を動力とする例と同じである。
電動モータは回転数を制御できるタイプのものを使用する。電源として家庭用の100V電源を使用する。電源のON OFF及びモータの回転数制御を“電源のON OFF及び電動モータ回転数制御つまみ”(符号26)(図9)で行う。”OFF”の選択で、モータは停止し、“弱”、“中”、“強”の選択で回転数は段々高くなる。洗い及び流しに使用する水道水のライン、水流切り替えコック(符号24)、水に溶かした洗剤(符号28)を投入するためのタンク(符号19)、ポンプ機能等は(1)の例と同じである。
【006】
[発明の効果]
(1)動力を使うため、清掃する人の肉体的負担を軽減する。
(2)楽な姿勢で作業ができるので、腰にかかる負担を軽減する。
(3)洗いから流しまでワンスッテプでできる。

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]
[0101]
Living goods related bathroom cleaning technology [002]
[Conventional technology]
Conventionally, when cleaning bathroom tiles and bathtubs (bathtubs), use a scourer, sponge, cleaning brush, etc., rub the cleaning surface manually with a detergent while bending and standing up. Finishing was done by running water with a hose.
[0093]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The issues for cleaning bathroom tiles and bathtubs are as follows.
(1) Since the cleaning surface is rubbed manually, the physical burden on the cleaning person is large.
(2) Since the cleaning surface is directly rubbed, it is necessary to bring the body close to the cleaning surface, and it is necessary to bend, stand up, or change the posture, which places a burden on the body. Also, working in a bent position is physically heavy.
(3) It is necessary to individually perform a task of "soaping a scourer or brush with a soapy water → rubbing a cleaning surface → pouring water for finishing".
[0093]
[Means for solving the problem]
(1) Tap water flow is used as power.
The stream of tap water is applied to the blade for rotation, the blade is rotated, and the brush attached to the tip of the blade is rotated. The cleaning surface is rubbed with this rotating brush. In the "washing" mode, a detergent liquid is mixed into the water flow (water flow used for rotating the blade), sprayed onto the cleaning surface, and the cleaning surface is cleaned by supplying the detergent liquid and brushing with a brush. In the "finishing" mode, no cleaning liquid is mixed in this water stream, and only water is sprayed on the cleaning surface and brushed. The distance between the grip held by the person and the brush applied to the cleaning surface should be set ergonomically so that the person can clean in a comfortable position.
(2) Use an electric motor as power.
An electric motor is used as power to rotate the brush. In addition, the method of supplying tap water and mixing the detergent liquid are the same as those in the case of "(1) Using the water flow of tap water as power".
[0056]
[Inventive embodiment]
[Example]
(1) Example of using tap water as a power source (described with reference to FIG. 1)
Tap water is supplied from the left side of the figure. Tap water entering the pipe for flowing water (reference numeral 5) is turned off by the function of the water flow control unit (reference numeral 14) by operating the water flow switching cock (reference numeral 13), and several water pressures such as detergent, low pressure, and high pressure. (Hence the amount of water) is controlled. (FIG. 3) When "OFF" is selected, water does not flow. When "detergent" is selected, the amount of water is relatively small, and the amount of water is set to a value suitable for washing with a detergent. When "low pressure" is selected, the amount of water is larger than that of "detergent" but relatively smaller. When "high pressure" is selected, the water amount is large. The water controlled by the water flow control unit (reference numeral 14) passes through a water flow pipe (reference numeral 5), hits a rotating blade (FIG. 2), and rotates the blade around a rotation axis. Since the brush (reference numeral 1) attached to the tip of the blade is integral with the blade, when the blade rotates, the brush also rotates. The cleaning surface is rubbed with this rotating brush. The rotation speed of the brush is controlled by the amount of water. The cleaning has two modes, a "washing" mode and a "flowing" mode.
In the "wash" mode, first select "OFF" with the water flow switching cock, stop the water flow, press the push button (reference numeral 6) several times, and remove the detergent (reference numeral 28) dissolved in the water in the tank (reference numeral 9). Extrude into a tube for flowing water (symbol 5). The principle of this pump is that when the push button (reference numeral 6) is pressed, there is no gap between the valve (reference numeral 8) and the wall, and the air in the tank (reference numeral 9) is compressed by lowering the valve (reference numeral 8). Air pressure in tank rises. When the air pressure in the tank rises, the detergent (28) dissolved in the water is pushed out into the pipe (5) through which the water flows through the pipe (10). When the force applied to the push button (20) is reduced to zero, the spring (25) returns both the push button and the valve (8) to their original positions. When returning to the original position, a gap is formed between the valve (reference numeral 8) and the wall surface, and the pressure in the tank becomes equal to the outside air pressure. There is a valve (12) in the water pipe (5) to prevent backflow of the detergent dissolved in the water pushed into the water pipe (5). Next, "detergent" is selected with the water flow switching cock (reference numeral 13). When "detergent" is selected, water starts to flow in the pipe through which water flows, and water containing detergent gushes from the right end of the pipe to rotate the blade (reference numeral 2). The surface to be cleaned is cleaned with the rotation of the brush attached to the tip of the blade and the water containing the discharged detergent. In the "sink" mode, the water flow switching cock (reference numeral 13) selects "low pressure" or "high pressure" to control the water flow without the addition of detergent, and only the water flows while the water flow and the rotation of the brush are used. Remove detergent on the cleaning surface.
(2) An example in which an electric motor is used as power (described with reference to FIG. 5)
This is the same as the example in which tap water is used as the power, except that the power used to rotate the cleaning brush is an electric motor.
An electric motor of a type that can control the number of rotations is used. A household 100V power supply is used as the power supply. Power ON / OFF and motor rotation speed control are performed by "power ON / OFF and electric motor rotation speed control knob" (reference numeral 26) (FIG. 9). When "OFF" is selected, the motor is stopped, and when "Low", "Medium", or "High" is selected, the rotation speed is gradually increased. A tap water line used for washing and sinking, a water flow switching cock (reference numeral 24), a tank (reference numeral 19) for introducing a detergent (reference numeral 28) dissolved in water, a pump function, etc. are the same as those in the example of (1). It is.
[0086]
[The invention's effect]
(1) The use of power reduces the physical burden on the person who cleans.
(2) Since the work can be performed in an easy posture, the burden on the waist is reduced.
(3) One step from washing to sink.
