Is possible.

It is a perspective view of the garbage collector for washing machines. It is sectional drawing. It is explanatory drawing at the time of using with a washing machine.

The present invention will be described in detail with reference to the illustrated embodiments.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a waste removal tool for a washing machine, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view thereof. The washing machine waste removal tool 1 is composed of a hard synthetic resin floating portion 2 and a synthetic resin waste collecting portion 3 attached below the floating portion 2.

  The floating portion 2 includes a storage portion 2a and a lid portion 2b that is fitted to the storage portion 2a from above. The storage portion 2a, which is the lower side of the storage portion 2a, is supplied with alkaline ionized water. A reforming material 2c to be reformed is stored.

  The storage portion 2a and the lid portion 2b are both bowl-shaped, and are fixed by screws to be described later in a state where the respective opening portions are overlapped. The floating portion 2 is a cylindrical body having a flat upper and lower surfaces with a diameter of 7 cm and a height of about 5 cm.

  A plurality of slit portions 2e are formed radially upward from the center of the bottom surface portion 2d in the storage portion 2a, and a cylinder having a bottom portion upward toward the inside at the center of the bottom surface portion 2d. Part 2f is formed. And the small hole 2g is provided in this bottom part.

  A cylindrical portion 2h is erected downward in the center of the lid portion 2b, and a thread groove 2i is provided on the inner wall where the tip of the cylindrical portion 2h contacts the bottom of the cylindrical portion 2f. And the buoyancy part 2j which consists of a polystyrene foam etc. is arrange | positioned so that the cylindrical part 2h may be surrounded in the cover part 2b. Further, the buoyancy part 2j disposed on the lid part 2b on the upper side in the storage part 2a may be an air bag made of vinyl or the like. In this case, the buoyancy part 2j is covered with the lid part 2b. There is no damage.

  When the storage portion 2a and the lid portion 2b are fixed, the respective openings are overlapped with each other, and then a screw 2k is inserted into the small hole 2g in the cylindrical portion 2f, and the screw 2k is further screwed into the screw in the cylindrical portion 2h. Screw into the groove 2i with a screwdriver. By completely screwing the screw 2k, the storage portion 2a and the lid portion 2b are integrated, and the lid portion 2b is not detached from the storage portion 2a due to an impact or the like in the water tank T of the washing machine.

  Further, two leg portions 21 extend from both sides of the lid portion 2b downward, and a dust collecting portion 3 is attached to the tip of the leg portion 21. The leg portion 21 may be extended from the storage portion 2a, or a ring-shaped member having two leg portions 21 may be sandwiched between the storage portion 2a and the lid portion 2b. Also good.

  The garbage collection part 3 is composed of a synthetic resin ring body 3a and an inverted conical net bag part 3b which is sunk downward, and the ring body 3a is detachably coupled to the two leg parts 21. ing.

  An opening of the net bag portion 3b is attached to the ring body 3a made of a hard synthetic resin, and the ring body 3a is an opening of the net bag portion 3b. The net bag portion 3b is for removing dust in the water tank T, and is a mesh body made of synthetic resin such as nylon.

  As the modifying material 2c disposed on the bottom surface portion 2d side in the floating portion 2, calcined calcium powder Ca and magnesium particles Mg are used. The calcined calcium powder Ca is, for example, a powdery body obtained by firing scallop shells or egg shells at a high temperature of 1000 ° C. or higher, and is placed in a bag made of nonwoven fabric or the like and placed in the storage portion 2a. . Alternatively, there is no problem even if the calcined calcium powder Ca is processed into granules.

  Moreover, it can replace with calcination calcium powder Ca and can use the magnesium particle Mg about 3-5 mm in diameter. Even when a large number of these magnesium grains Mg are accommodated in the floating part 2, the width of the slit part 2e is smaller than the diameter of the magnesium grain Mg, so that the magnesium grain Mg does not escape from the slit part 2e.

  When using this washing machine garbage-removing tool 1, as shown in FIG. 3, it arrange | positions in the state which made the floating part 2 upward and the waste collection part 3 below in arbitrary positions in the water tank T. As shown in FIG. The floating portion 2 floats on the water surface of the water tank T in a state where the storage portion 2a and the garbage collection portion 3 are immersed in water by the buoyancy of the buoyancy portion 2j in the lid portion 2b. In addition, since the specific gravity of magnesium is smaller than the specific gravity of other metals, even if the buoyancy part 2j is somewhat small, sufficient buoyancy is obtained for the storage part 2a and the waste collection part 3 to float on the water surface of the water tank T. Can do.

  When the laundry C is put into the water tank T and a washing start button is pressed, water injection into the water tank T is started. After the water injection is completed, power is transmitted to the pulsator P from the motor M at the bottom of the washing machine via the belt B, and the pulsator P rotates. When the pulsator P is rotated and the rinsing process is started, the washing machine waste remover 1 having buoyancy due to the vortex flow of the pulsator P is vigorously stirred in the vicinity of the water surface of the water tank T, so that the modifier 2c and the water W The reaction is promoted.

  Since the water W in the water tank T enters the storage part 2a through the slit part 2e of the storage part 2a immersed in water, the modifier 2c and the water W react, and the water W in the water tank T becomes Modified to alkaline ionized water. This alkaline ionized water provides a cleaning effect and a sterilizing effect.

When the calcined calcium powder Ca is used as the modifying material 2c, the calcined calcium powder Ca is immersed in the water W, so that the calcium oxide reacts with the water W and changes to calcium hydroxide as in the following formula.
CaO + H ₂ 0 → Ca (OH) ₂

Furthermore, the water-soluble calcium hydroxide is ionized as in the following formula to reform the water W in the toilet tank into alkaline ionized water.
Ca (OH) ₂ → Ca ²⁺ + 2OH ⁻

Similarly, when magnesium grain Mg is used as the modifier 2c, the magnesium grain Mg is immersed in the water W, whereby a reaction represented by the following formula occurs.
Mg + 2i ₂ O → Mg (OH) ₂ + H ₂ ↑

  Magnesium and water W react to produce magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen, and the water W in the water tank T is reformed to alkaline ionized water.

  Since these modified alkaline ionized water is known to decompose oils and fats to make soap, this action promotes the detergent in the water tank T and removes dirt on the laundry due to the surface active effect. It becomes possible.

  In addition, alkaline ionized water subdivides the clusters of water W molecules, so it has high permeability, easily penetrates into the gap between the laundry and the dirt attached to the laundry, and the effect of swelling and floating the dirt. Also have.

  Since the dissolution rate of the modifying material 2c stored in the storage unit 2a is extremely slow, it takes several months or more to completely dissolve. Therefore, since the above-described cleaning effect and sterilization effect by the alkaline ionized water are exhibited over a long period of time, even if it is necessary to discard the garbage in the garbage collection unit 3 every time it is washed, the calcined calcium powder Ca It is almost unnecessary to replace the bag body filled with or to replenish the calcined calcium powder Ca and magnesium particles Mg.

  In addition, as described above, the washing machine waste remover 1 can obtain a cleaning effect and a sterilizing effect with alkaline ionized water, and at the same time, dust floating in the water tank T in the net bag portion 3b of the waste collecting portion 3 It is possible to collect dust efficiently by dropping into the mesh bag portion 3b from the ring body 3a soaked in the container. In order to take out the waste after washing, the ring body 3a is removed from the leg 2l and the dust in the net bag 3b is taken out.
