Description

  The present invention relates to a pet cleaning tool that can clean, sterilize, and deodorize pet hair and body surfaces while brushing.

  Traditionally, pets such as dogs have been washed at the owner's home. However, since pets do not like to get wet with water originally, if you find that you can pour a large amount of water in a shower etc., it will be violent or shake the wet body and dirty the surroundings, so it is difficult for one adult Because of the work, shampoo and other services have recently been provided at pet shops.

However, since the service at this pet shop is expensive, there are many demands whether it is not possible to clean pets at home, or whether women with poor physical strength or elderly people cannot clean pets. Therefore, as shown in many publications such as Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-158299 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-274781, a pet is housed in a container, washed with a shower provided in the container, and dried with warm air from a dryer, A hand shower in which a water hose is connected to a glove having a two-layer structure disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-50001 and water is ejected from a hole on the palm surface, or a head disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-42710. There has been proposed a moisture removing tool that is provided with a plurality of hollow nozzles at the tip, sucks moisture adhering to the washed pet's body hair by negative pressure means, and then connects the negative pressure means to the blowing means to dry the pet's hair. .

  However, in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, a cleaning liquid or water is sprayed on a pet housed in a container in a shower, and in a pet having a long bristle, hair can repel the liquid and the body surface cannot be sufficiently cleaned. Alternatively, the rinsing could not be performed sufficiently, and the cleaning component could remain on the body surface, leaving a skin disorder.

  Moreover, although the thing of patent document 3 was proposed to use for the rinse after a shampoo, since the pet which dislikes getting wet is not still, there is anxiety whether sufficient rinsing will be performed.

  Moreover, what is described in Patent Document 4 is inconvenient because it sucks moisture adhering to the hair of the pet after washing, and connects it to a blower to dry it.

  These conventional examples are performed while leaving the act of hating the pet to put a large amount of water on the pet, so it is not possible to work with the pet in a calm state, and in the shower etc. Even if water or washing liquid is applied, only the surface of the hair covering the body gets wet, and the body surface and hairline cannot be cleaned.

  The present invention has been made to solve such problems, and the object of the present invention is not to hate a pet, but to perform a brushing operation having a massage effect on the pet in a calm state. The present invention provides a pet cleaning tool that can clean the body surface and hairline while performing.

(B) Since the pet cleaning tool of the present invention can be cleaned while brushing the pet, the pet can also relax.
(C) The pet cleaning tool of the present invention can be sterilized and deodorized because the fine mist rich in negative ions generated from the ultrasonic humidifier is directly applied to the body surface and hair of the pet from the protrusion of the brush.
(D) The pet cleaning tool of the present invention can be efficiently dried when the ultrasonic humidifier is stopped and the wind is directly applied to the body surface and hair of the pet from the protrusions of the brush.
(E) In the pet cleaning tool of the present invention, the functional water is ejected in a mist form from the fine holes provided at the tips of the brush protrusions, so that the dirt on the pet body surface and hairline can be efficiently removed. Can do.

  A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. The first embodiment corresponds to claim 1 and is mainly intended for pet body surface, hairline, hair sterilization / deodorization and body surface health. FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of the brush, and FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a use state of the pet cleaning tool of this embodiment.

  In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a brush body having a hollow structure, and a plurality of pipe-shaped protrusions 3 are provided on the brush surface 2, and the pipe-shaped protrusions 3 communicate with the hollow structure cavity. Further, a connecting portion 5 is provided on the grip portion 4 of the brush body 1 so that a flexible hose 6 can be connected. Reference numeral 7 denotes a blower, which blows air to the brush body 1 through the hose 6 connected to the blower 7, through the venturi as the negative pressure suction device 8, and through the hose 6. 9 is an ultrasonic humidifier, and the fine mist generated from the ultrasonic humidifier 9 is drawn into the negative pressure suction device 8 by the negative pressure generated in the negative pressure suction device 8 due to the wind pressure of the blower 7, and the wind of the blower 7 Is mixed and sent to the brush body 1.

  Next, a method for using the pet cleaning tool of the present invention will be described.

  First, the brush body 1, the negative pressure suction device 8, and the blower 7 are respectively connected by the flexible hose 6 and arranged so that the fine pressure fog generated from the ultrasonic humidifier 9 can be sucked by the negative pressure suction device 8. Next, when the blower 7 and the ultrasonic humidifier 9 are operated, the fine mist generated from the ultrasonic humidifier 9 is sucked into the negative pressure suction device 8 and is provided on the brush surface 2 of the brush body 1 together with the wind from the blower 7. Erupts in white smoke. In such a state, the hair of the pet P is brushed.

  By doing in this way, the fine mist from the pipe-shaped protrusion 3 of the brush surface 2 is sufficiently disturbed by the hair and the hairline of the pet P without being disturbed by the hair, and is discharged from the body surface and the hair root. Lift up. At this time, since the fine mist generated from the ultrasonic humidifier 9 contains a large amount of negative ions, the negatively charged fine mist reduces the waste and the waste discharged from the body surface and hair roots. Can be sterilized and deodorized, and the body surface and hair can be made healthy by the massage effect of negative ions and brushing.

  Here, when brushing with the pet cleaning tool of the present invention in a short cycle, it may be transferred to a drying operation, but when the pet P is very dirty, the lifted dirt may be wiped off with a towel or the like.

  Next, the drying operation is performed by stopping the operation of the ultrasonic humidifier 9. By doing in this way, the dry wind from the blower 7 can sufficiently pass through the body surface and hair of the pet P without being disturbed by the hair from the pipe-shaped protrusion 3 of the brush surface 2, and the body surface and hair can be dried evenly. Can be made.

  Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. The present embodiment corresponds to claim 2 and is mainly intended for the body surface of the pet, the hairline, the washing of the hair, and the soundness of the body surface. 3 is a sectional view of the brush, FIG. 4 is an enlarged sectional view showing an example of the tip of the brush protrusion, FIG. 5 is an enlarged sectional view showing another example of the tip of the brush protrusion, and FIG. It is a use condition figure of the cleaning tool for pets of an example. The same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and detailed description thereof is omitted.

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, reference numeral 1 denotes a brush body having a hollow structure, and the brush surface 2 is provided with a plurality of pipe-shaped protrusions 3, and the pipe-shaped protrusions 3 are hollow structure cavities. Communicated with. A ceramic 11 having a microporous is inserted into the tip 10 of the protrusion 3. Further, the grip portion 4 of the brush body 1 is provided with a connection portion 5 in which a pressure regulating valve 12 is arranged, so that a flexible hose 6 can be connected. The other end of the hose 6 connected to the brush body 1 is connected to the discharge side of the pump 13, and the suction side of the pump 13 is connected to a water tank 14 in which the functional water W is stored. The water tank 14 stores functional water W containing a large amount of microbubbles generated from the electrolyzed water or the microbubble generator 15 attached to the water tank 14. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 5, the same effect can be obtained by closing the tip 10 of the protrusion 3 and providing a plurality of fine holes 16 there.

  Next, the usage method will be described. The brush body 1 and the pump 13 are connected by the flexible hose 6 and the pump 13 and the water tank 14 are connected by the hose 6. Next, when using electrolyzed water as the functional water W, the electrolyzed water is stored in the water tank 14. When microbubble-containing water is used as the functional water W, when water is stored in the water tank 14 and the microbubble generator 15 provided in the water tank 14 is thrown into the water, the microbubble generator 15 is operated. The water in the water tank 14 becomes cloudy and becomes functional water W due to the generated microbubbles. When the pump 13 is operated in such a state, water containing a large amount of microbubbles is sent to the brush body 1 via the pump 13. At this time, since the ceramic 11 having microporous is inserted into the tip 10 of the protrusion 3 that is erected on the brush surface 2, the functional water W is pressurized, passes through the microporous of the ceramic 11, and protrudes 3. The pressure regulating valve 12 is adjusted so that it is sprayed more in a mist state. In such a state, the hair of the pet P is brushed.

  By doing in this way, since the functional water W is sprayed in the form of mist on the body surface of the pet P and the hairline without being obstructed by the hair from the plurality of protrusions 3 erected on the brush surface 2, the body surface Since the microbubbles are negatively charged, waste products discharged from the hair roots can be lifted and removed by repelling the surface and hair. By using functional water W without using detergent, there is no risk of skin damage due to the fact that no detergent remains on the body surface and hair, and the body surface and hair are made healthy by the massage effect of brushing. Can do.

  In the second embodiment, since the amount of the functional water W used is larger than that of the fine mist of the first embodiment (about several liters per minute), water drops may fall from the pet P. It is necessary to work with. However, since the usage amount of the functional water W is much smaller than that in the case where water is applied in the shower, the body is wet without knowing the pet P.

  Next, the pet P is dried by drying means such as the drying method of the first embodiment or a drying means such as a dryer.

  As described above, when the pet cleaning tool of the present invention is used, there is no fear that the pet will be sprayed with a large amount of water. Since it can be applied to the hairline, the waste discharged from the body surface or the hair root can be lifted and removed, or reduced, so that it can be washed, sterilized and deodorized. In addition, it is calm because it is a safe state to have a favorite owner brush, so women and elderly people can wash, sterilize and deodorize pets with confidence.

  The present invention can be applied in various ways. For example, it is possible to shorten the drying time by blowing warm air by operating a blower with a heater. In addition, it can be applied directly to the body surface by adding ozone to the water used for the ultrasonic humidifier, putting medicinal stones, using hot spring water, adding herbs and various extracts. Therefore, sterilization and medicinal effects can be expected.
