  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, cleaning tools such as patent documents described below have been disclosed in order to clean window glass in places where work by human power is difficult, such as window glass of high-rise buildings.

  Patent Document 1 discloses an automatic window glass cleaning device in which the entire window glass can be efficiently cleaned and the cleaning brush and its driving mechanism are made compact.

JP-A-11-253362

  However, the automatic cleaning device described above has a high initial cost, and since the operation method is complicated, it requires frequent maintenance, and if it falls, there is a risk of damaging things and people. There are some problems.

  The present invention takes the above-mentioned circumstances into consideration, and the problem to be solved is that it is possible to perform efficient automatic cleaning, omit periodic maintenance and the like as much as possible, and, in the unlikely event, it falls from the window glass. Another object is to provide a window glass cleaning tool that is extremely unlikely to hurt people or objects.

The present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is a cleaning tool in which a strip is suspended from a support plate fixed to a window glass, and the strip is rocked or rotated by wind pressure. To do. Incidentally, the belt-like body here means that when it receives wind pressure, it swings or rotates, and at this time it rubs against the wall surface in the tunnel to wipe off the dirt adhering to the wall surface. , Belt-like cloth, thick string, and the like.

  And if a support plate is thick, since it is so heavy and a clearance gap will be made between a window glass and a strip | belt-shaped body, it is preferable that the thickness of a support plate is 1 mm or less.

  In addition, in order for the strip to rotate more smoothly, it is preferable that the surface of the support plate in contact with the strip has a smoothness. In addition, what is called an acrylic board etc. is desirable for the board which has slidability here.

  And it is preferable that the strip | belt-shaped body is pivotally supported by the pin attached to the support plate so that it may rotate easily with a wind pressure. In addition, as for the pin here, the linearly-shaped pin in which both ends were formed in a T shape, and what is called a tag pin, etc. are desirable.

  And when a strip | belt-shaped body is cloth, in order to make it difficult to twist, it is preferable that the site | part pivotally supported by the pin is folded twice.

  Furthermore, in order for the belt-like body to further rotate along the window glass, it is preferable that a ball with a pin through hole is disposed outside the belt-like body and is pivotally supported by the pin together with the belt-like body.

  The shape of the ball is not particularly limited, but in order for the belt-shaped body to rotate more smoothly, it is preferable that the surface in contact with the ball strip has a smoothness. Note that the ball here is preferably a so-called bead, which is a small decorative ball with a threading hole.

  As in the present invention, a simple structure in which a belt-like body is suspended from a support plate does not require frequent maintenance. Moreover, even if it is such a simple structure, if it receives a wind pressure, since a strip | belt-shaped body rocks | fluctuates or rotates and touches a window glass, it is excellent in that the stain | pollution | contamination of a window glass is removed automatically.

  And if the thickness of a support plate is 1 mm or less, since it is very light, it will become easy to adhere to a window glass or a wall surface, and even if it should fall, a possibility that a person and an object will be damaged will decrease. And the lack of thickness means that the gap between the strip and the window glass is reduced accordingly, so the strip can easily touch the window glass in a wider area, allowing efficient cleaning. It becomes.

  Further, if the support plate has a structure having a slipperiness on the surface in contact with the belt-like body, the belt-like body rotates more smoothly, leading to efficient cleaning.

  And if a strip | belt body is the structure supported by the pin attached to the support plate, since the energy of a wind pressure can be made into the force which a strip | belt body rotates directly, it leads to efficient cleaning.

  Furthermore, when the strip is a cloth, if the strip is double-folded at the portion pivotally supported by the support plate by the pin, the strip can be swung or rotated. In addition to being difficult to twist, the rotation shaft is stabilized, so that the belt-like body can be swung or rotated more smoothly.

  Then, if the ball with pin through holes is arranged outside the belt-like body and is configured to be pivotally supported on the support plate by the pin together with the belt-like body, the ball-like body receives a soft pressing with a large area by the ball. Can rotate smoothly while sticking to the window glass. At this time, if the ball has slipperiness, it can be expected that the rotation of the belt-like body becomes smoother.

The support plate 1 preferably has a thickness of 1 mm or less, thereby reducing the weight and making the gap between the window glass 20 and the cleaning tool 10 as small as possible. In addition, weight reduction of the support plate 1 strengthens the adhesion between the support plate 1 and the window glass 20 and has an effect of hardly damaging people or objects even if it is peeled off. . In addition, the small gap between the window glass 20 and the cleaning tool 10 has an effect that the strip 3 is easily in contact with the window glass 20.

  And it is preferable that the support plate 1 has lubricity in the surface which contact | connects the strip | belt-shaped body 3, and an acrylic board is suitable. The acrylic plate is excellent in self-lubricating properties, can be reduced in weight, and has weather resistance. In addition, the weather resistance used here refers to a property that hardly causes alteration such as deformation, discoloration, and deterioration with respect to wind and rain, temperature change, and the like. In addition, an acrylic plate having a thickness of 1 mm or less can be easily cut with a scissors or the like, so that processing is easy and convenience is high.

  The double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 2 is for fixing the support plate 1 to the window glass 20 and, like the support plate 1, is preferably 1 mm or less in thickness and waterproof.

  When the belt-like body 3 receives wind pressure, it swings or rotates, and at this time, it rubs against the surface of the window glass 20 to wipe off the dirt adhering to the window glass 20. As shown in the drawing, an elongate belt-like cloth is taken as a preferred example. The length of the belt-like body 3 is usually about 60 cm, and the belt-like body 3 swings or rotates while drawing a circular orbit having the length as a radius. It should be noted that the shorter this length, the easier it is to swing and rotate, and the one with a length of about 30 cm can perform the most efficient cleaning. The width of the strip 3 is preferably within a few centimeters, and if this is the case, the visual field of the driver of the automobile will not be hindered even if it is broken and scattered. The fabric of the belt-like cloth as shown in the figure is preferably a fray-resistant fabric prepared by forming a continuous loop called a tricot in the warp direction, but is not limited to this. Further, the types of natural fibers, regenerated fibers, and synthetic fibers are not particularly limited with respect to the material of the fibers.

  It is desirable that the fastening thread 4 is a long and thin line-shaped, chemically synthetic fiber such as nylon thread that is very strong and stretchable.
