The left side of the washing / dehydrating tub 8 in the circumferential direction is the left side of the filtering device F, and the upper side of the washing / dehydrating tub 8 is the upper side of the filtering device F.

図３に示すように、ろ過装置Ｆは、薄く上下に長い略直方体形状を有し、その内側は中空になっている。ろ過装置Ｆの上部中央には係止爪３２を有し、下部中央にはヒンジＨを有している。   As shown in FIG. 3, the filtration device F has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape that is thin vertically and has a hollow inside. The filtration device F has a locking claw 32 at the upper center and a hinge H at the lower center.

係止爪３２は、ろ過装置収容ケース５０の前記係止穴５３に嵌入されることにより、ろ過装置Ｆの上端をろ過装置収容ケース５０に支持する。
この係止爪３２は、板体を屈曲させて形成されており、ろ過装置Ｆの上端に接続される板体が後側に向けて延出する途中で前側に向けて折り返されるように形成され、断面視で略Ｕ字状を呈している。この係止爪３２は、バネ弾性を有しており、Ｕ字を形成する上板及び下板が上下方向に弾発力をもって変位可能となっている。また、係止爪３２の上板の上面には、突起３２ａが形成されている。なお、図示しないが、ろ過装置収容ケース５０の係止穴５３の上壁（天井）には、凹部５１にろ過装置Ｆが配置された際に、係止爪３２の突起３２ａを受け入れる穴が形成されている。 The locking claw 32 is fitted into the locking hole 53 of the filtration device accommodation case 50, thereby supporting the upper end of the filtration device F to the filtration device accommodation case 50.
The locking claw 32 is formed by bending a plate, and is formed so that the plate connected to the upper end of the filtration device F is folded back toward the front while extending toward the rear. It is substantially U-shaped in cross-sectional view. The locking claw 32 has spring elasticity, and an upper plate and a lower plate forming a U-shape can be displaced with a resilient force in the vertical direction. Further, a protrusion 32 a is formed on the upper surface of the upper plate of the locking claw 32. Although not shown, a hole is formed in the upper wall (ceiling) of the locking hole 53 of the filtration device housing case 50 to receive the protrusion 32a of the locking claw 32 when the filtration device F is disposed in the recess 51. Has been.

ヒンジＨは、下方に突出するように形成されている。このヒンジＨは、後に詳しく説明するように、ろ過装置Ｆの表面板３０の下端と、裏面板４０の下端とを軸支することで、このヒンジＨ周りにこれら表面板３０と裏面板４０とを相対的に回動させる構成となっている。
そして、ヒンジＨは、前記のとおり、ろ過装置収容ケース５０に形成される前記嵌入穴４２に嵌入されることにより、ろ過装置Ｆの下端をろ過装置収容ケース５０に支持する。 The hinge H is formed so as to protrude downward. As will be described in detail later, the hinge H pivotally supports the lower end of the front plate 30 of the filtration device F and the lower end of the rear plate 40, so that the front plate 30 and the rear plate 40 are arranged around the hinge H. Are relatively rotated.
And the hinge H supports the lower end of the filtration apparatus F to the filtration apparatus accommodation case 50 by being inserted in the said fitting hole 42 formed in the filtration apparatus accommodation case 50 as above-mentioned.

また、ろ過装置Ｆの前側には、上下方向の少なくとも下半分を占めるようにフィルタ部３３が形成され、フィルタ部３３が形成されていないろ過装置Ｆの前側の上部には、左右横長の窪みで指掛部３１が形成されている。
フィルタ部３３は、略格子状の枠部３３ａで複数の孔部３３ｂが区画され、これらの孔部３３ｂは、中空のろ過装置Ｆの内外を連通させている。
そして、各孔部３３ｂを遮るようにメッシュ状のフィルタ材料３３ｃが配置されている。
ちなみに、ろ過装置Ｆの前側に設けられるフィルタ部３３の略格子状の枠部３３ａは、洗濯時に洗濯物が洗濯兼脱水槽８内で攪拌される際にこれに擦れることで、いわゆる洗濯板効果を発揮する。 Further, the filter unit 33 is formed on the front side of the filtration device F so as to occupy at least the lower half of the vertical direction, and the upper part of the front side of the filtration device F on which the filter unit 33 is not formed is a horizontally elongated recess. A finger hook portion 31 is formed.
The filter part 33 has a plurality of hole parts 33b defined by a substantially lattice-like frame part 33a. These hole parts 33b allow the inside and outside of the hollow filtration device F to communicate with each other.
And mesh-shaped filter material 33c is arrange | positioned so that each hole 33b may be interrupted | blocked.
Incidentally, the substantially lattice-like frame portion 33a of the filter portion 33 provided on the front side of the filtering device F rubs against the laundry when it is stirred in the washing and dehydrating tub 8 during washing, so-called washing plate effect. Demonstrate.

本実施形態での指掛部３１は、ろ過装置Ｆの正面視で横長楕円形状を呈しているが、その形状は特に制限はなく、横長の矩形であってもよい。
ちなみに、本実施形態での指掛部３１は、ろ過装置収容ケース５０に対するろ過装置Ｆの着脱時に、ユーザの親指の腹を前記の係止爪３２にあてがった際に、少なくとも人さし指を挿し入れる幅及び深さのものを想定している。この指掛部３１の横幅は、人さし指及び中指の二指、ないしは親指及び小指を除く他の三指が挿し入れ可能な程度に設定されることが望ましいがこれに限定されるものではない。 The finger hook portion 31 in the present embodiment has a horizontally long elliptical shape in front view of the filtration device F, but the shape thereof is not particularly limited and may be a horizontally long rectangle.
By the way, the finger hook portion 31 in the present embodiment has a width for inserting at least an index finger when the user's thumb belly is applied to the locking claw 32 when the filtration device F is attached to or detached from the filtration device housing case 50. And the depth is assumed. The lateral width of the finger hook portion 31 is desirably set to such an extent that two fingers of the index finger and middle finger, or other three fingers excluding the thumb and little finger can be inserted, but is not limited thereto.

また、ろ過装置収容ケース５０対するろ過装置Ｆの位置、ないしはろ過装置Ｆにおける指掛部３１の位置Ｐは、図２に示すように、洗濯兼脱水槽８（洗濯槽）の深さＤ１の半分の位置よりも上方であることが望ましい。また、洗濯兼脱水槽８の開口からの距離Ｄ２は、２０ｃｍ以内とすることが望ましい。ちなみに、本実施形態での指掛部３１の位置Ｐは、指掛部３１の縦幅の中央位置で規定している。   Further, the position of the filtration device F relative to the filtration device housing case 50 or the position P of the finger hook portion 31 in the filtration device F is half of the depth D1 of the washing and dewatering tub 8 (washing tub) as shown in FIG. It is desirable to be above the position of. The distance D2 from the opening of the washing and dewatering tub 8 is preferably within 20 cm. Incidentally, the position P of the finger hook portion 31 in the present embodiment is defined by the center position of the vertical length of the finger hook portion 31.

図４に示すように、ろ過装置Ｆは、前側に配置される表面板３０と、後側に配置される裏面板４０と、を備えて構成されている。つまり、表面板３０は、ろ過装置Ｆの前側半体を形成し、裏面板４０は、ろ過装置Ｆの後側半体を形成している。
これら表面板３０及び裏面板４０同士は、互いに貝合わせされることによりその内側に中空部を形成している。 As shown in FIG. 4, the filtration device F includes a front plate 30 disposed on the front side and a back plate 40 disposed on the rear side. That is, the front plate 30 forms the front half of the filtration device F, and the back plate 40 forms the rear half of the filtration device F.
The front plate 30 and the back plate 40 are shelled together to form a hollow portion inside thereof.

表面板３０には、前記の係止爪３２と、指掛部３１と、フィルタ部３３と、後記する裏面板４０の軸部４３と協働してヒンジＨを構成するフック部３４と、が形成されている。
フック部３４は、表面板３０と裏面板４０とが重ね合わせられた状態で、軸部４３の後半周面と当接するようにＵ字状を形成している。このフック部３４については、裏面板４０の軸部４３と共に後に詳しく説明する。 The front plate 30 includes the above-described locking claw 32, finger hook portion 31, filter portion 33, and hook portion 34 that forms a hinge H in cooperation with a shaft portion 43 of the back plate 40 described later. Is formed.
The hook portion 34 is formed in a U shape so as to come into contact with the second half circumferential surface of the shaft portion 43 in a state where the front surface plate 30 and the rear surface plate 40 are overlapped. The hook portion 34 will be described in detail later together with the shaft portion 43 of the back plate 40.

また、表面板３０の係止爪３２の基端部には、次に説明する裏面板４０の第１の係合凹部４４ａと嵌合する第１の係合突起３５ａを有している。また、表面板３０のフック部３４の基端部には、次に説明する裏面板４０の第２の係合凹部４４ｂと嵌合する第２の係合突起３５ｂを有している。   Moreover, it has the 1st engaging protrusion 35a fitted in the 1st engaging recessed part 44a of the back surface board 40 demonstrated below in the base end part of the latching claw 32 of the surface board 30. FIG. Further, the base end portion of the hook portion 34 of the front surface plate 30 has a second engagement protrusion 35b that fits into a second engagement recess 44b of the back surface plate 40 to be described below.

裏面板４０には、ろ過装置Ｆがろ過装置収容ケース５０（図３参照）に収容された際に前記のケース側開口５２（図３参照）に対応する位置に、洗濯水の導入開口４１が形成されている。この導入開口４１は、中空のろ過装置Ｆの内外を連通させている。本実施形態での導入開口４１は、裏面板４０の上下方向の略中央に形成されている。   The back plate 40 has a washing water introduction opening 41 at a position corresponding to the case side opening 52 (see FIG. 3) when the filtering device F is housed in the filtration device housing case 50 (see FIG. 3). Is formed. The introduction opening 41 communicates the inside and outside of the hollow filtration device F. In the present embodiment, the introduction opening 41 is formed at substantially the center in the vertical direction of the back plate 40.

また、裏面板４０は、表面板３０との間に洗濯水の逆流防止壁４５を有している。本実施形態での逆流防止壁４５は、表面板３０のフィルタ部３３と対向する裏面板４０の内壁から表面板３０側に向けて立ち上がるように形成されている。具体的には、逆流防止壁４５は、導入開口４１の直ぐ下方で隣接するように裏面板４０の内壁に立設されている。つまり、逆流防止壁４５は、導入開口４１を介してろ過装置Ｆ内に導入された洗濯水が、フィルタ部３３からろ過装置Ｆ外に抜けて流れていく流路途中に形成されている。
このような逆流防止壁４５は、導入開口４１からろ過装置Ｆの内側に導入された洗濯水が、再び導入開口４１に向けて流れようとする逆流を遮ることとなる。 Further, the back plate 40 has a backflow prevention wall 45 for washing water between the back plate 40 and the front plate 30. The backflow prevention wall 45 in the present embodiment is formed so as to rise from the inner wall of the back plate 40 facing the filter portion 33 of the front plate 30 toward the front plate 30 side. Specifically, the backflow prevention wall 45 is erected on the inner wall of the back plate 40 so as to be adjacent immediately below the introduction opening 41. That is, the backflow prevention wall 45 is formed in the middle of the flow path in which the wash water introduced into the filtration device F through the introduction opening 41 flows out from the filter unit 33 to the outside of the filtration device F.
Such a backflow prevention wall 45 blocks the backflow in which the washing water introduced from the introduction opening 41 to the inside of the filtration device F tries to flow again toward the introduction opening 41.

また、裏面板４０は、表面板との間に案内板３６を有している。本実施形態での案内板３６は、導入開口４１の直ぐ上方で隣接するように裏面板４０の内壁に立設されている。具体的には、導入開口４１の直ぐ上方からフィルタ部３３の上端に向けて延出している。ちなみに、本実施形態での導入開口４１の上縁は、フィルタ部３３よりも上方に位置しているので、案内板３６は、裏面板４０の内壁から下り勾配となるように傾斜して形成されている。
このような案内板３６は、導入開口４１からろ過装置Ｆの内側に導入された洗濯水をフィルタ部３３に向けて流れるように案内することとなる。 Further, the back plate 40 has a guide plate 36 between the front plate and the back plate 40. In this embodiment, the guide plate 36 is erected on the inner wall of the back plate 40 so as to be adjacent immediately above the introduction opening 41. Specifically, it extends from directly above the introduction opening 41 toward the upper end of the filter portion 33. Incidentally, since the upper edge of the introduction opening 41 in the present embodiment is located above the filter portion 33, the guide plate 36 is formed so as to be inclined downward from the inner wall of the back plate 40. ing.
Such a guide plate 36 guides the washing water introduced from the introduction opening 41 to the inside of the filtration device F so as to flow toward the filter unit 33.

また、裏面板４０の下端には、表面板３０のフック部３４に支承させる、軸部４３が形成されており、この軸部４３は、フック部３４と共に前記のヒンジＨを構成している。
そして、フック部３４は、前記したように、裏面板４０と表面板３０とが重ね合わせられた状態で、軸部４３の後側から当接するＵ字状を呈している。つまり、裏面板４０と表面板３０とが重ね合わせられた状態では、軸部４３からフック部３４を離反させることはできないが、後記するように裏面板４０に対して表面板３０を１８０°反転させると（図８参照）、Ｕ字の開放側から軸部４３が離脱可能となって、軸部４３からフック部３４を離反できるようになっている。
図４中、符号４４ａは、表面板３０の第１の係合突起３５ａと係合する前記の第１の係合凹部であり、符号４４ｂは、表面板３０の第２の係合突起３５ｂと係合する前記の第２の係合凹部である。 Further, a shaft portion 43 that is supported by the hook portion 34 of the front surface plate 30 is formed at the lower end of the back plate 40, and this shaft portion 43 constitutes the hinge H together with the hook portion 34.
And as above-mentioned, the hook part 34 is exhibiting the U-shape which contact | abuts from the rear side of the axial part 43 in the state which the back surface board 40 and the surface board 30 were piled up. That is, in a state where the back plate 40 and the front plate 30 are overlapped, the hook portion 34 cannot be separated from the shaft portion 43, but the front plate 30 is inverted by 180 ° with respect to the back plate 40 as described later. Then (see FIG. 8), the shaft portion 43 can be detached from the U-shaped open side, and the hook portion 34 can be separated from the shaft portion 43.
In FIG. 4, reference numeral 44 a is the first engaging recess that engages with the first engaging protrusion 35 a of the surface plate 30, and reference numeral 44 b indicates the second engaging protrusion 35 b of the surface plate 30. It is said 2nd engagement recessed part to engage.

次に、本発明の実施形態に係るろ過装置Ｆ及びこれを備える洗濯乾燥機１の作用効果について説明する。
ユーザがろ過装置Ｆを洗濯乾燥機１（図１参照）に取り付ける場合には、図３に示すろ過装置Ｆを把持する。ユーザは、例えば人さし指を指掛部３１に差し込み、親指の腹を係止爪３２の上面にあてがってろ過装置Ｆを把持する。次に、ユーザは、ろ過装置Ｆを把持したまま、そのヒンジＨをろ過装置収容ケース５０の嵌入穴４２に嵌入した後、係止爪３２をろ過装置収容ケース５０の係止穴５３に嵌入する。これにより、ろ過装置Ｆはろ過装置収容ケース５０に収容・支持される。そして、ろ過装置収容ケース５０と洗濯兼脱水槽８の内周面との間に形成される間隙５（図３参照）は、ケース側開口５２及び導入開口４１（図４参照）を介してろ過装置Ｆの内側（中空部）と連通することとなる。 Next, the effect of the filtration apparatus F which concerns on embodiment of this invention, and the washing dryer 1 provided with this is demonstrated.
When the user attaches the filtration device F to the washing / drying machine 1 (see FIG. 1), the user holds the filtration device F shown in FIG. For example, the user inserts an index finger into the finger hook portion 31 and holds the filtration device F by placing the belly of the thumb on the upper surface of the locking claw 32. Next, the user inserts the locking claw 32 into the locking hole 53 of the filtration device storage case 50 after inserting the hinge H into the insertion hole 42 of the filtration device storage case 50 while holding the filtration device F. . As a result, the filtration device F is accommodated and supported in the filtration device accommodation case 50. And the clearance gap 5 (refer FIG. 3) formed between the filtration apparatus accommodation case 50 and the internal peripheral surface of the washing and dewatering tank 8 is filtered through the case side opening 52 and the introduction opening 41 (refer FIG. 4). It will communicate with the inner side (hollow part) of the apparatus F.

図５は、ろ過装置収容ケースに組み付けた洗濯機用ろ過装置における洗濯水の流れを示す側面断面図である。図６は、洗濯機用ろ過装置の逆流防止壁及び案内板付近を拡大して示す部分拡大側面断面図である。図７は、ろ過装置の表面板と裏面板とを回動軸周りに回動させて開いた様子を示す斜視図である。図８は、洗濯機用ろ過装置のヒンジにて表面板と裏面板とを分離した様子を示す部分拡大側面断面図である。   FIG. 5 is a side cross-sectional view showing the flow of washing water in the washing machine filtration device assembled to the filtration device housing case. FIG. 6 is a partial enlarged side cross-sectional view showing the backflow prevention wall and the vicinity of the guide plate of the washing machine filtration device in an enlarged manner. FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing a state in which the front surface plate and the rear surface plate of the filtration device are opened around the rotation axis. FIG. 8 is a partial enlarged side cross-sectional view showing a state in which the front plate and the back plate are separated by the hinge of the washing machine filtration device.

図１に示す本実施形態の洗濯乾燥機１では、外槽９内に洗濯水が溜められて洗濯兼脱水槽８内で洗濯物の洗濯が行われる際に、回転翼８ｂは、洗濯兼脱水槽８内の洗濯水を攪拌する。
この洗濯時における回転翼８ｂの煽りによって、糸くず等のごみを含む洗濯水は、ろ過装置収容ケース５０（図３参照）の下端の洗濯水導入口６（図３参照）を介してろ過装置収容ケース５０と洗濯兼脱水槽８の内周面との間の間隙５内に導かれる。 In the washing / drying machine 1 of the present embodiment shown in FIG. 1, when the washing water is stored in the outer tub 9 and the laundry is washed in the washing / dehydrating tub 8, the rotary blade 8 b is The washing water in the water tank 8 is stirred.
Washing water containing waste such as lint is washed through the washing water inlet 6 (see FIG. 3) at the lower end of the filtration device housing case 50 (see FIG. 3) due to the turning of the rotary blade 8b during washing. Guided into the gap 5 between the storage case 50 and the inner peripheral surface of the washing and dewatering tub 8.

そして、図５に示すように、糸くず等を同伴する洗濯水Ｗは、間隙５内を上行し、ろ過装置収容ケース５０のケース側開口５２及びろ過装置Ｆの導入開口４１を通過してろ過装置Ｆ内に導入された後、フィルタ部３３からろ過装置Ｆ外に送り出されていく。
なお、図５中、符号８は、洗濯兼脱水槽であり、符号６は、洗濯水導入口である。 Then, as shown in FIG. 5, the washing water W accompanying lint and the like goes up in the gap 5 and passes through the case side opening 52 of the filtration device housing case 50 and the introduction opening 41 of the filtration device F and is filtered. After being introduced into the apparatus F, it is sent out from the filter unit 33 to the outside of the filtration apparatus F.
In addition, in FIG. 5, the code | symbol 8 is a washing and dehydration tank, and the code | symbol 6 is a washing water inlet.

この際、洗濯水Ｗは、図６に示すように、案内板３６によって導入開口４１からフィルタ部３３に向かって案内されて円滑に流れていく。また、ろ過装置Ｆ内に導入された洗濯水Ｗは、逆流防止壁４５によって導入開口４１への逆流が防止される。
そのため、ろ過装置Ｆ内に導入された洗濯水Ｗは、フィルタ部３３から効率よくろ過装置Ｆ外に送り出されていく。
これにより、本実施形態のろ過装置Ｆによれば、洗濯水Ｗに含まれる糸くず等のごみをフィルタ部３３で効率よく捕集することができる。 At this time, as shown in FIG. 6, the washing water W is smoothly guided by the guide plate 36 from the introduction opening 41 toward the filter portion 33. Further, the washing water W introduced into the filtration device F is prevented from flowing back into the introduction opening 41 by the backflow prevention wall 45.
Therefore, the washing water W introduced into the filtration device F is efficiently sent out of the filtration device F from the filter unit 33.
Thereby, according to the filtration apparatus F of this embodiment, wastes, such as waste thread contained in the washing water W, can be efficiently collected by the filter unit 33.

次に、ろ過装置Ｆで捕集した糸くず等のごみを廃棄する手順について説明する。
ユーザは、ろ過装置Ｆをろ過装置収容ケース５０から取り外す。この際、ユーザは、前記したろ過装置収容ケース５０に対するろ過装置Ｆの取り付けと逆の工程を辿る。具体的には、ユーザは、例えば、人さし指を指掛部３１に挿し入れ、親指の腹を係止爪３２の上面にあてがう。そして、親指で係止爪３２の上面を押し下げることで係止穴５３に対する係止爪３２の係止を解くと共に、親指と人さし指とで把持したろ過装置Ｆを引き上げるようにしてヒンジＨを嵌入穴４２から抜き出してろ過装置Ｆをろ過装置収容ケース５０から取り外す。 Next, a procedure for discarding wastes such as lint collected by the filtration device F will be described.
The user removes the filtration device F from the filtration device housing case 50. At this time, the user follows the reverse process of attaching the filtration device F to the filtration device housing case 50 described above. Specifically, for example, the user inserts an index finger into the finger hook portion 31 and places the belly of the thumb on the upper surface of the locking claw 32. Then, the upper surface of the locking claw 32 is pushed down with the thumb to release the locking claw 32 from the locking hole 53, and the hinge H is inserted into the insertion hole so that the filtration device F grasped by the thumb and the index finger is pulled up. The filter device F is removed from the filter device housing case 50 by being extracted from 42.

この際、指掛部３１の位置Ｐが洗濯兼脱水槽８（洗濯槽）の深さＤ１の半分の位置よりも上方となるように設定されるか、或いは指掛部３１の位置Ｐが洗濯兼脱水槽８の開口からの２０ｃｍ以内に設定されることで、ユーザは、ろ過装置Ｆを洗濯兼脱水槽８から容易に取り外すことができる。   At this time, the position P of the finger hook portion 31 is set to be higher than the half position of the depth D1 of the washing and dewatering tub 8 (washing tub), or the position P of the finger hook portion 31 is set to the laundry. The user can easily remove the filtering device F from the washing and dewatering tub 8 by being set within 20 cm from the opening of the cum and dewatering tub 8.

次に、図７に示すように、ユーザがろ過装置Ｆの表面板３０と裏面板４０とを引き離すと、ヒンジＨ周りに表面板３０と裏面板４０とが相対的に回動して、ろ過装置Ｆの内部（中空部）が露出する。
これにより、ユーザは、洗濯水からろ過された糸くず等のごみをフィルタ部３３の内側に視認することができる。そして、表面板３０自体にフィルタ部３３が設けられているので、ユーザは容易にろ過された糸くず等のごみをフィルタ部３３から取り除いて廃棄することができる。
ちなみに、表面板３０と裏面板４０とが相対的に回動して、ろ過装置Ｆの内部（中空部）が露出する際には、第１の係合突起３５ａと第１の係合凹部４４ａとの係合、及び第２の係合突起３５ｂと第２の係合凹部４４ｂとの係合は解かれる。 Next, as shown in FIG. 7, when the user separates the front plate 30 and the back plate 40 of the filtration device F, the front plate 30 and the back plate 40 are relatively rotated around the hinge H, and the filtration is performed. The inside (hollow part) of the apparatus F is exposed.
Thereby, the user can visually recognize the dust such as the lint filtered from the washing water inside the filter portion 33. And since the filter part 33 is provided in the surface board 30 itself, the user can remove | eliminate dusts, such as a waste thread, filtered easily from the filter part 33, and can discard it.
Incidentally, when the front plate 30 and the back plate 40 are relatively rotated to expose the inside (hollow portion) of the filtering device F, the first engagement protrusion 35a and the first engagement recess 44a are exposed. And the engagement between the second engagement protrusion 35b and the second engagement recess 44b are released.

そして、フィルタ部３３のごみを除去した後、再び表面板３０と裏面板４０とを貝合わせにする際には、第１の係合突起３５ａと第１の係合凹部４４ａとは係合し、第２の係合突起３５ｂと第２の係合凹部４４ｂとは係合する。これにより表面板３０と裏面板４０とが閉じ合った状態が維持されることとなる。
なお、図７中、符号４１は、導入開口であり、符号３１は指掛部であり、符号３２は係止爪であり、符号３６は案内板である。また、符号４９はフィルタ部３３と対向する裏面板４０の内側に形成された補強リブである。 Then, after removing the dust from the filter portion 33, when the front plate 30 and the back plate 40 are shelled again, the first engagement protrusion 35a and the first engagement recess 44a are engaged. The second engagement protrusion 35b and the second engagement recess 44b engage with each other. As a result, the state in which the front plate 30 and the back plate 40 are closed is maintained.

Reference numeral 49 denotes a reinforcing rib formed inside the back plate 40 facing the filter portion 33.

また、ろ過装置Ｆは、図８に示すように、ヒンジＨが軸部４３とフック部３４とで形成されており、前記したように、表面板３０と裏面板４０とが重ね合わせられた状態（図４参照）から表面板３０を裏面板４０に対して１８０°反転させることで軸部４３からフック部３４が離反可能となる。つまり、表面板３０と裏面板４０とは相互に分離することができる。
これにより、フィルタ部３３からのごみの除去が更に容易になると共に、漂白剤等の薬剤浸漬時、乾燥時等における取り扱いを効率よく行うことができる。 Further, as shown in FIG. 8, in the filtering device F, the hinge H is formed by the shaft portion 43 and the hook portion 34, and as described above, the front surface plate 30 and the back surface plate 40 are overlapped. The hook portion 34 can be separated from the shaft portion 43 by reversing the front surface plate 30 from the rear surface plate 40 by 180 ° (see FIG. 4). That is, the front plate 30 and the back plate 40 can be separated from each other.
This makes it easier to remove dust from the filter section 33 and allows efficient handling during immersion of chemicals such as a bleaching agent and drying.
