Abstract

To solve a drawback in a conventional washing device being the device with a scrub brush in a tip of a stick, in which an inside cannot be washed with water by closing a lid, and therefore a sufficient washing effect is hard to be obtained.SOLUTION: A container washing device 5 by the present disclosure includes a spherical body 1, a fiber sheet 2 and a filament-like medium 3. The spherical body 1 may not float on water. The fiber sheet 2 is a net-like sheet formed by winding and wrapping the spherical body 1. The filament-like medium 3 squeezes a root part of a part extending to the other side each other from a portion wrapping the spherical body 1 of the fiber sheet 2. As a result, even a container inner wall surface with small unevenness can be washed cleanly.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

The present invention is a container cleaning tool used for cleaning the inside of a PET bottle.

As a container cleaning tool of this type, there is a cylindrical container cleaning tool configured by attaching a hanging string to each of a plurality of spheres and binding one ends of the hanging strings to each other (see Patent Document 1).

Utility model registration No. 2596560

However, the cleaning tool described in Patent Document 1 has a brush with a scrubbing tip. Since the inside cannot be washed with the lid closed, it is difficult to obtain a sufficient washing effect. The present invention aims to eliminate such drawbacks.

The container cleaning tool according to the present invention includes a spherical body, a fiber sheet, and a filamentous body. The spherical body does not float on water. The fiber sheet is a net-like sheet that winds and wraps the spherical body. The filamentous body squeezes the root portions of the portions of the fibrous sheet extending from the portion enclosing the spherical body to the opposite sides.

According to the configuration of the present invention, it is possible to clean even the inner wall surface of the container having fine irregularities.

FIG. 1 is an overall external view of a container cleaning tool according to an embodiment of the present invention. It is a manufacturing process figure of the container cleaning tool of FIG. It is an external view which illustrates the usage mode of the container cleaning tool of FIG. It is a photograph of the prototype of the container cleaning tool of FIG.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
In the overall external view of FIG. 1, 5 is a container cleaning tool, 1 is a spherical body of the container cleaning tool 5, and 2 is a reticulated fiber sheet that covers the spherical body 1 so that both ends are flat. Reference numeral 3 is a thread-like body that narrows the boundary between the flat ends of the fiber sheet 2 and the spherical body 1.

As shown in the manufacturing process diagram of FIG. 2, the spherical body 1 is placed at the center of the fiber sheet 2, and then the fiber sheet 2 is rolled up so as to wrap the spherical body 1. After that, the root portions of the portions of the fiber sheet extending from the portion enclosing the spherical body 1 to the opposite sides are squeezed by the filaments 3. The thread 3 is sewn to the fiber sheet 2 as an example. The container cleaning tool 5 produced in this way is as if it were a candy ball wrapped in wrapping paper.

The spherical body 1 does not float on water, and is made of, for example, ceramic or glass beads or copper, and the fibrous sheet 2 is made of, for example, nylon, polyester, or the like. A sponge film can be used. The filament 3 is, for example, a nylon thread.

As illustrated in FIG. 3, the container cleaning tool 5 configured as described above is put into a container 4 such as a PET bottle to be cleaned and used. To use, put some container washer 5 and an appropriate amount of water into the container 4, close the lid and shake. Since the spherical body 1 is heavier than water, it prevents the container cleaning tool 5 from floating on water. When the container 4 is shaken, the water is violently shaken in the container 4 by keeping the amount of water to an appropriate amount without filling it with water, and the container cleaning tool 5 also moves the container 4 together with the water. Will dance. As a result, the blade-shaped portions extending from the center of the fiber sheet 2 to both sides cleanly remove the dirt on the inner wall surface of the container 4. Since the blade-shaped fiber sheet 2 is flexible, it is possible to clean the inner wall surface of the container 4 having any shape, for example, the inner wall surface in which the inside is fine and concave.

As shown in the photograph of FIG. 4, the inventor of the present application prototyped a container cleaning tool 5 and tried it on various containers 4 such as PET bottles. A glass ball was used for the spherical body 1, a sponge film was used for the fiber sheet 2, and household silk yarn was used for the filamentous body 3. Even a heavily soiled container 4 such as a dressing container could be washed without detergent and in a short time before the container 4 could be reused. As described above, it was confirmed by trial manufacture and trial use that the container cleaning tool 5 is useful for reusing the container 4 such as a PET bottle.
