[0006]

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view. Reference numeral 10 denotes a donut plate-shaped optical head cleaning board, which has the same dimensions and shape as an existing compact disc, and has a center hole 11 formed therein. A cleaning element 12 made of a brush is spirally formed on the board surface at a plurality of locations (seven locations in this embodiment) at pitches. As a cleaning element, a brush, a felt, or the like may be provided at a pitch in the radial direction of the disk body 10 or a belt-shaped projection.

[0007] Reference numeral 1 denotes a storage case for the panel body 10, which comprises a lower case 2 and an upper case 3 which is attached to the lower case 2 by a hinge 4 so as to be freely opened and closed. The shape and dimensions of the storage case 1 are the same as those of the storage case of the existing compact disc. The lower case 2 is provided with a recessed portion 5 for accommodating the board body 10 in a circular groove shape, and a receiving portion 6 in which the center hole 11 is rotatably mounted is protruded at the center thereof. A shaft 14 is detachably inserted into the receiving portion 6 from above the board 10.

Reference numeral 21 denotes a cleaning tool, which is a plate-shaped grip portion 22, a brush 23 provided at a tip portion thereof as a first cleaning member, and a second cleaning member mounted at a rear portion thereof. The grip portion 22 has a mounting portion 25 which is detachably mounted to the receiving portion 6.

As shown in FIG. 2, the cleaning tool 21 is mounted on the receiving portion 6, the board 10 is further mounted thereon, and the shaft 14 is further mounted thereon.
Is inserted into the lower case 2. The cleaning tool 21 holds the cleaning element 1
2 is a spacer that secures a space L between the lower case 2 and the board 10 so that the lower case 2 does not contact the lower case 2 and bend. The receiving portion 6 is a mounting means for the cleaning tool 21,
The cleaning tool 21 can be stored in the storage case 1 together with the panel body 10 so as not to be lost.

When cleaning the cleaning element 12 of the board 10,
The board 10 and the cleaning tool 21 are removed from the storage case 1, and the grip 23 is held as shown in FIG. In this case, the mounting section 25 prevents the fingertip from slipping. In addition, by making the waist of the cleaning brush 23 stronger than that of the cleaning element 12 on the cleaning side, dust adhering to the cleaning element 12 can be effectively eliminated. In addition, by forming the spherical portion 23 a at the tip of the brush 23, it is possible to prevent the recording surface of the disk 10 from being damaged by the tip of the brush 23.

The board surface of the board body 10 provided with the cleaning element 12 is a recording surface on which a control signal for cleaning and the like are recorded. However, in this case, if the cleaning tool 21 is turned upside down, the recording surface can be wiped by the felt 24. In this case, the width L1 of the felt 24 is changed to the pitch L2 of the cleaning element 12.
By making the felt 24 smaller than
The recording surface can be cleaned while sliding between the cleaning element 2 and the cleaning element 12, and the cleaning element 12 does not hinder the cleaning by the felt 24. The second cleaning body is not limited to the felt 24 and may be any material that does not damage the recording surface, such as a soft cloth, and may be either a dry type or a wet type.

Next, another embodiment will be described. The cleaning tool 31 shown in FIG.
2 and a second cleaning member 33 for the recording surface of the disk body 10.
Cleaning body 34 is attached by back-to-back bonding. The two cleaning members 33 and 34 are formed of felt or the like. However, the first cleaning member 33 is coarser than the second cleaning member 34 so that the effect of sieving off dust adhering to the cleaning element 12 is increased. The second cleaning body 34 extends to the lower surface side so that the recording surface can be easily wiped. The mounting portion 35 to be mounted on the receiving portion 6 is also opened so that this can be stored in the storage case 1.

A cleaning tool 41 shown in FIG. 5 has a first cleaning body 43 and a second cleaning body 44 mounted on the tip of a grip 42 side by side. As shown in the figure, the second cleaning body 44 is slightly longer than the second cleaning body 43, and when the recording body is wiped by the cleaning body 44, the cleaning body 43 that is harder than the cleaning body 44 hits the recording surface. I try not to hurt this. The cleaning tool 51 shown in FIG. 6 has a first cleaning body 53 and a second cleaning body 54 provided on different surfaces of the grip portion 42. The cleaning tool 61 shown in FIG. The body 63 is provided so that the second cleaning body 64 sandwiches the body 63. In this case, the first cleaning body 63 is shorter than the second cleaning body 64 and is drawn inward, so that the weak first cleaning body 63 is protected by the second cleaning body 64, and As with the cleaning tool 41, the hard cleaning body 63 does not damage the recording surface of the disk 10. 45,5
Reference numerals 5 and 65 are mounting portions.

A cleaning tool 71 shown in FIG.
The coil spring 73 removes dust adhering to the cleaning element 12. As described above, various shapes of the material of the cleaning body are conceivable. In short, it is only necessary that the cleaning body has a large effect of removing dust adhering to the cleaning element on the board body 10 side. Further, as shown in FIG. 9 and FIG.
The brushes 83 and 93 may be provided on the 92, and in this case, the grip portion 82 may be formed with a mounting portion 85 to the receiving portion 6. Alternatively, the grip portion and the cleaning body are formed of a conductive material such as carbon, thereby grounding with the fingertip holding the grip portion, and removing the static electricity from the cleaning element 12, thereby reducing dust adhering to the cleaning element 12 due to static electricity. Can be removed.
