However, the slippers disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3 have a complicated structure as compared with general slippers because the slippers can be attached with a cleaning sheet by adopting a special design. Therefore, there is a problem that the slippers for everyday use have difficulty in durability and a problem that they are uncomfortable to wear.

Further, the cleaning tool disclosed in Patent Document 4 has a toe hook portion and a heel hook portion, and each of them can be hung on the front side and the rear side of the slippers.
However, this cleaning tool has a weak fixing force to the slippers and easily comes off from the slippers. Furthermore, it is not supposed to be attached to footwear other than slippers, and cannot be attached to footwear other than slippers.
Further, the combination of the slippers and the cleaning tool described in Patent Documents 1 to 4 has a problem that cleaning near the wall is not easy.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning tool that can be stably attached to general slippers and can be attached to footwear other than slippers and can easily clean the wall surface. And.

The cleaning tool according to the present invention according to the above object is a cleaning tool attached to the footwear, which is attached to a bag-shaped cover body that covers the bottom surface of the footwear and an outer peripheral portion continuous with the bottom surface, and an opening peripheral edge portion of the cover body. The base end portion is connected to the rubber for fixing the cover body to the footwear by squeezing the opening peripheral portion and the outer surface of the cover body corresponding to the boundary portion between the bottom surface and the outer peripheral portion of the footwear. It is equipped with a skirt that spreads radially around the footwear.

The cleaning tool according to the present invention is attached to the bottom surface of the footwear and a bag-shaped cover body that covers the outer peripheral portion continuous to the bottom surface, and the opening peripheral edge portion of the cover body, and the opening peripheral edge portion is narrowed down to fix the cover body to the footwear. Since it is equipped with rubber, it can be stably attached to general slippers and attached to footwear other than slippers. In addition, since the base end is connected to the outer surface of the cover body corresponding to the boundary between the bottom surface of the footwear and the outer peripheral portion, and a skirt that spreads radially around the footwear is provided, it is possible to clean the area around the footwear and near the wall. Can be easily cleaned.

It is a top view of the cleaning tool which concerns on one Embodiment of this invention. It is a bottom view of the cleaning tool. It is explanatory drawing which shows the state which the cleaning tool is attached to the slipper.

Subsequently, an embodiment embodying the present invention will be described with reference to the attached drawings, and the present invention will be understood.
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the cleaning tool 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention is attached to slippers S, which is an example of footwear, and is used for cleaning floors, tatami mats, and the like.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the cleaning tool 10 includes a bag-shaped cover body 11 that covers the entire bottom surface S1 of the slippers S and the entire outer peripheral portion S2 continuous with the bottom surface S1 of the slippers S. Here, the outer peripheral portion S2 of the slipper S is a portion continuous with the outer edge of the bottom surface S1 of the slipper S in each of the instep S3 and the insole S4 of the slipper S, and is an elliptical ring as a whole. The outer peripheral portion of sneakers and business shoes is a combination of the sole and the area continuous with the sole in the upper.

The cover body 11 is formed of a non-woven fabric as a material, and as shown in FIG. 1, the non-woven fabric is folded inward over the entire circumference of the opening peripheral edge portion 12 of the cover body 11, and the folded state is sewn by a thread 13. It is maintained by attaching. The thread 13 is attached to the cover body 11 and is not included in the cover body 11. In FIG. 3, the description of the thread 13 is omitted.
A rubber band 14 which is an example of rubber is included in the folded region of the opening peripheral edge portion 12 (that is, a rubber band 14 is attached to the opening peripheral edge portion 12), and the opening peripheral edge portion 12 is squeezed by the rubber band 14. .. In the present embodiment, in the cover body 11, the non-woven fabric is overlapped only in the folded region of the opening peripheral edge portion 12, and the non-woven fabric is not overlapped in the other regions.

As shown in FIG. 3, the cover body 11 (cleaning tool 10) covers the bottom surface S1 and the outer peripheral portion S2 of the slipper S, and the opening peripheral portion 12 is squeezed by the rubber band 14 and fixed to the slipper S. .. In this way, since the cleaning tool 10 is fixed to the slippers S by the rubber band 14, it can be stably attached to various slippers S having different sizes and shapes, and footwear other than the slippers S (for example, sneakers and business). It can be attached to shoes and sandals), and further, it is possible to easily attach and remove footwear including slippers S.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the cover body 11 is sewn with a skirt 15 that spreads radially around the slippers S with the cover body 11 attached to the slippers S. The skirt 15 can collect dust and hair around the slippers S to which the cleaning tool 10 is attached, and can easily remove dust and hair at the corners where the walls are in vertical contact with each other and near the walls. ..
Hereinafter, unless otherwise specified, the cover body 11 is assumed to be attached to the slippers S.

In the present embodiment, the skirt 15 is formed of a non-woven fabric as a material, and the base end portion (inner peripheral side) corresponds to the boundary portion between the bottom surface S1 and the outer peripheral portion S2 of the slipper S in the cover body 11 (outer surface). ) Is connected by a thread (not shown) and has an elliptical ring shape as a whole. The boundary portion between the bottom surface S1 of the slipper S and the outer peripheral portion S2 is a region having a constant width (for example, 1 cm width) about the boundary line (outer edge of the bottom surface S1) between the bottom surface S1 of the slipper S and the outer peripheral portion S2.

The skirt 15 is provided with a folded region (tack) 16 in which the nonwoven fabric is folded back in the circumferential direction of the skirt 15 at intervals in the circumferential direction. Here, instead of the skirt 15 provided with the folded region 16, a skirt provided with gathers (wrinkles formed by pulling a thread sewn on the nonwoven fabric to shrink the nonwoven fabric) may be adopted. Providing a folded area or gathers on the skirt is suitable for improving the adsorption force of dust and hair.

The skirt 15 is provided with a large number of branch pieces 17 that are long in the radial direction on the tip side (outside in the radial direction) to enhance the collecting power of dust and hair and the holding power of collected dust and hair. .. Each branch piece 17 is formed in a jagged shape (saw-tooth shape) on both sides in the width direction, thereby further enhancing the collecting power of dust and hair and the holding power of collected dust and hair. In the present embodiment, these branched pieces 17 are provided by cutting the non-woven fabric.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and all changes in conditions that do not deviate from the gist are within the scope of the present invention.
For example, the material of either one or both of the cover body and the skirt may be other than the non-woven fabric (for example, urethane or case).
Further, the rubber attached to the opening peripheral edge of the cover body does not have to be a rubber band, and may be, for example, a ring-shaped rubber in which both ends of the linear rubber are connected and connected, and both ends are attached to the opening peripheral edge. It may be a linear rubber that is fixed and provided along the peripheral edge of the opening.

Furthermore, the skirt does not need to have a folded area or gathers.
And the skirt does not have to have branches. When the branch pieces are provided, both sides in the width direction do not have to be jagged and may be straight lines.
