Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a perforated plate pot cleaner enabling a perforated plate pot to be cleared by labor similar to that by a normal bedpan cleaning brush, and preventing waste water occurring in cleaning from scattering in the periphery.SOLUTION: The perforated plate pot cleaner 1 includes a handle part 11 having a fork holding part comprising a first holding part 11b and a second holding part 11c, and a cleaning part 12 of an almost columnar shape, held by the fork holding part. The cleaning part 12 includes a rough part 12a comprising a sponge, and a dense part 12b comprising a sponge having the number of cells as the number of cells (air bubbles) per unit length, which is large. The perforated plate pot cleaner 1 has a high cleaning effect because a perforated plate pot is cleaned by the clogged dense part 12b, and prevents waste water from scattering in the periphery because waste water occurring in the dense part 12b when cleaning the perforated plate pot drops to a bedpan after shifting to the rough part 12a having a higher air gap degree.

Description

  The present invention relates to an eye plate pot cleaner used for cleaning an eye plate pot provided at the bottom of a male urinal.

  The eye plate pot is provided at the bottom of the male urinal and is a path through which sewage from the urinal flows to the sewer pipe. Since the eye plate pot is usually cylindrical, it is difficult to clean with a general toilet cleaning brush, and it has to be cleaned with a toothbrush, shoe brush, cup washing brush, or the like (see Non-Patent Document 1). . However, these brushes were different in shape and size from the eye plate pot, so it was difficult to clean, sewage splashed, and the efficiency was also poor.

  For this reason, although the eye plate pot is cleaned together with other parts of the urinal, dirt tends to accumulate, and there is a problem that urine stones may be generated in the eye plate pot between cleaning and cleaning. It was.

  Urine stone is a substance that decomposes and concentrates organic matter, urea, and calcium ions in the urine during stagnation, and is the main cause of urine odor. It is necessary to use harmful detergents.

  Now, in order to solve such a problem, conventionally, there has been invented a sliding toilet such as a toilet in which a plurality of sponge plates are sandwiched between bifurcated sandwiching portions provided at the end of a long plastic handle ( (See Patent Document 1). However, this toilet flushing tool has a problem that when the toilet is washed, the sewage stays on the outside of the sponge plate, so that the sewage scatters around.

  Therefore, this invention requires only the same effort as a normal toilet bowl cleaning brush, can be cleaned to the same extent as the rest of the toilet bowl, and does not scatter the sewage generated during cleaning around It is an issue to provide.

  That is, the eye plate pot cleaner of the present invention includes a handle portion having a bifurcated sandwiching portion at one end and a substantially cylindrical cleaning portion sandwiched by the bifurcated sandwiching portion, and the cleaning portion is a rough portion made of an elastic porous material. And a dense portion made of an elastic porous material that is arranged on two opposite surfaces of the coarse portion and has a larger number of cells (bubbles) per unit length than the coarse portion. Are not disposed, and the two rough surfaces facing each other are sandwiched by the bifurcated sandwiching portion. The elastic porous material is preferably a synthetic resin sponge, more preferably a polyurethane sponge.

  The eye plate pot cleaner of the present invention is suitable for cleaning the eye plate pot because the shape of the cleaning part is a substantially cylindrical shape, and can efficiently clean the eye plate pot without generating urine stones. Moreover, since the sewage produced when washing the eye plate pot falls down from the dense part in contact with the wall surface of the eye plate pot via the rough part at the center, the sewage is not scattered.

  An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The embodiment described below is merely an example embodying the present invention, and does not limit the technical scope of the present invention.

  FIG. 1 is an external view of an eye plate pot cleaner 1 according to the present invention. As shown in this figure, the eye plate pot cleaner 1 includes a handle portion 11 and a substantially cylindrical cleaning portion 12 sandwiched at one end thereof. The eye dish pot cleaner is a toilet bowl cleaning tool particularly suitable for cleaning the eye pot part in the toilet bowl.

  FIG. 2 is an external view of the handle portion 11 with the cleaning portion 12 removed from the eye plate pot cleaner 1. As shown in this figure, the handle portion 11 includes a gripping portion 11a for a user of the eye plate pot cleaner to hold with a hand, and a bifurcated clamping portion comprising a first clamping portion 11b and a second clamping portion 11c. ing.

  Moreover, the fixing pin 11d inserted in the cleaning part 12 is provided on the upper surface of the second clamping part 11c, and the through hole 11e through which the fixing pin 11d passes is provided at the tip part of the first clamping part 11b. . Then, in order to fix the tip of the fixing pin 11d that has passed through the through hole 11e in this state, an arrowhead-type locking portion is provided at the tip of the fixing pin 11d. When a force is applied and pressed, it is deformed so that it can pass through the through hole 11e.

  Further, saw-like projections 11f are provided on the opposing surfaces of the first clamping part 11b and the second clamping part 11c to prevent the clamped cleaning part 12 from falling off. The handle 11 can be manufactured from a synthetic resin such as polypropylene by a known method such as injection molding.

  FIG. 3 is a side sectional view of the cleaning unit 12 removed from the handle 11. As shown in this figure, the cleaning unit 12 includes a rough portion 12a that constitutes the center portion thereof, and a dense portion 12b that is disposed on the opposing surface of the rough portion 12a.

  The coarse portion 12a and the dense portion 12b are made of an elastic porous material having open cells, and the coarse portion 12a has a smaller number of cells than the dense portion 12b. The number of cells is the number of cells (bubbles) per unit length (25 mm) of the elastic porous material, and the larger the number of cells, the more clogged. The number of cells is a value measured and calculated by counting the number of cells included in a certain section of the elastic porous material with a microscope or the like.

  The number of cells of the elastic porous material is 8 to 75. Among them, the number of cells of the coarse portion 12a is preferably 8 to 10, and the number of cells of the dense portion 12b is preferably 11 to 15.

  The elastic porous material constituting the rough portion 12a and the dense portion 12b can be used without particular limitation as long as it is a known elastic porous material having open cells. Examples thereof include sponges produced from known synthetic resins such as polyurethane, polystyrene, and melamine by a known method, nylon (registered trademark) nonwoven fabric, and polyester nonwoven fabric.

  In the case where the dense portion 12b is made of a synthetic resin sponge such as polyurethane, it is preferable to thermally compress a sponge manufactured by a normal method. This is because the thermal compression improves the durability of the sponge and also increases the cleaning effect by increasing the thickness of the sponge.

  In addition, the cleaning unit 12 may arrange the dense portion 12b on the opposing surface of the rough portion 12a, and then adhere the rough portion 12a and the dense portion 12b by a known method such as an adhesive or heat welding. You may leave it in place.

  As such a cleaning unit 12, for example, a synthetic resin sponge having a different number of cells bonded with an adhesive, a nylon (non-registered trademark) nonwoven fabric bonded on both sides of the synthetic resin sponge with an adhesive, and the like. Can be mentioned. Among these, a sponge in which synthetic resin sponges having different numbers of cells are bonded with an adhesive is preferable because of easy availability, and a sponge in which polyurethane sponges having different numbers of cells are bonded with an adhesive is more preferable because of low cost. In addition, for adhesion with an adhesive, a known method such as spraying a known adhesive such as a polyurethane-based adhesive onto the sponge by spraying, and then sticking the sponge over may be used.

  The eye plate pot cleaner 1 according to the present invention is assembled from the handle portion 11 and the cleaning portion 12 as follows, for example. First, one end of the cleaning part 12 is deformed and fitted between the first clamping part 11b and the second clamping part 11c of the handle part 11. At this time, as shown in FIG. 4, the fixing pin 11 d of the second clamping part 11 c is fitted in such a direction as to pierce the rough part 12 a of the cleaning part 12.

  Next, the first clamping part 11b and the second clamping part until the arrowhead-shaped locking part provided at the tip of the fixing pin 11d passes through the through hole 11e via the rough part 12a of the cleaning part 12 11c. Thereby, the fixing pin 11d is fixed in a state of passing through the through hole 11e, and the state where the cleaning unit 12 is sandwiched by the handle unit 11 is maintained. Therefore, unless the tip of the fixing pin 11d is deleted, the cleaning unit 12 cannot be removed from the handle unit 11.

  FIG. 5 shows a cross-sectional view of the eye plate pot cleaner 1 thus assembled. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the AA portion of the eye plate pot cleaner shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 5, the cleaning part 12 is clamped by the first clamping part 11b and the second clamping part 11c, and is fixed by a fixing pin 11d. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the portion where the cleaning unit 12 is sandwiched is pushed into the inside of the cleaning unit 12, and the portion where the cleaning unit 12 is not sandwiched is the opposite side (tip side) from the handle 11. Is spreading towards. That is, the cleaning unit 12 has a substantially cylindrical shape that spreads toward the tip side.

  FIG. 6 shows a cross-sectional view of the eye plate pot cleaner 1 cut in a direction different from that in FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line XX in FIG. As shown in this figure, the cross section of the sandwiched portion of the cleaning unit 12 is substantially circular. Moreover, the figure which looked at the eye plate pot cleaner 1 from the front end side of the cleaning part 12 is shown in FIG. As shown in this figure, the rough portion 12a is exposed from between the dense portions 12b on the distal end side of the cleaning portion 12.

  Therefore, as shown in FIG. 8, when the eye dish pot cleaner 1 is used to clean the eye dish pot M provided at the bottom of the male urinal B, the cleaning unit 12 includes the inside of the eye dish pot. Since it is a substantially columnar shape adapted to the shape of the wall surface, the dense portion 12b of the cleaning portion 12 is in close contact with the inner wall surface of the eye plate pot M, and can be washed efficiently. In addition, the sewage generated during the cleaning does not scatter to the surroundings because it moves from the tip of the coarse part 12a to the bottom of the pan pot M after moving to the coarse part 12a having a smaller number of cells than the dense part 12b.

  In addition, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment, A various change can be added within the range described in the claim.

  For example, the cleaning unit 12 may be tapered toward the tip side, that is, in the direction opposite to the handle unit 11. This facilitates insertion of the eye plate pot cleaner 1 into the eye plate pot M. Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the fixing pin 11d was integrated with the 2nd clamping part 11c, you may isolate | separate independently and may integrate with the 1st clamping part 11b. Furthermore, what is necessary is just to change freely the shape of the hook in the rear end of the holding part 11a, the shape of the holding part 11a, the attachment angle of the holding part and the bifurcated clamping part, etc. according to market trends.
