Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a cleaning tool provided with a brush, particularly to a cleaning tool used for cleaning a narrow gap or a groove.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, as cleaning tools provided with a brush portion, various cleaning tools have been provided for various applications, such as those used for toilets, those used in bathrooms and toilets, and those used outdoors.

[0003] The cleaning tools provided with these brush parts are generally constructed by flocking or winding fibers or fibers made of a synthetic resin or a natural material around one end of a handle to be gripped.

[0004] These cleaning tools are effective for cleaning a wide area, but the brush or handle is too large to clean a narrow gap or a small groove, and the like There was an inconvenience that cleaning was not possible.

On the other hand, a cleaning tool with a small handle for cleaning small parts is provided. However, in order to clean a narrow gap, for example, a gap having a width of about 10 mm, a cleaning portion does not enter the gap, and the gap is substantially eliminated. Could not be cleaned.

[0006]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a gap cleaning tool which can easily clean even a narrow gap and can be manufactured at low cost.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 As a means for solving the above-mentioned problem, at least two or more cleaning tools made of synthetic resin are formed, and formed at one end or at least part of both ends of the handle by integral molding with the handle. This is to provide a brush unit. Further, in the handle portion of the gap cleaning tool composed of at least two or more, a plurality of bridge portions formed integrally with the handle portion and the brush portion are provided between adjacent handle portions.

[0008]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Next, embodiments of the invention will be described with reference to examples. FIG. 1 is a plan view showing a gap cleaning tool according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a part thereof. FIG. 3 is a sectional view showing a part of the brush portion.

In the drawings, the gap cleaning device according to the present invention is made of a thermoplastic synthetic resin such as polyethylene or polypropylene, and is composed of at least two or more.

[0010] Bases 5 and 5 'are formed on extensions of the handle parts 1 and 1', and brushes 2 and 2 'are integrally formed on the surfaces of these bases.

The thickness of the bases 5 and 5 ′ is approximately 1 mm to 3 mm. The brushes 2 and 2 'are composed of a number of hair-like projections 6 having a maximum width of 0.5 mm or less at the base and a length of about 3 mm to 6 mm. It stands substantially perpendicular to 5, 5 '.

The cross section of the hairy projection 6 in the lateral direction may be any shape such as a circle and a square. In addition, the external appearance of the hairy projection 6 may be a columnar shape, a cone shape, or the like.

Further, ribs 4 and 4 ′ are provided on at least a part of the surface of the handle portions 1 and 1 ′.

The size of the handle portions 1 and 1 'is not particularly limited, but is preferably 5 mm to 20 mm in consideration of the purpose of cleaning the gap. Also, the length of the handle portions 1 and 1 'is appropriately 100 mm to 200 mm.

In FIG. 1, the gap cleaning tool is composed of a portion having a relatively wide handle 1 and a portion having a relatively narrow handle 1 ′. It may be composed only of the portion having the pattern portion or composed only of the portion having the pattern portion 1 ′.

A plurality of bridge portions 3 formed integrally with the handle portions 1, 1 ′ and the brush portions 2, 2 ′ are provided between the adjacent handle portions 1, 1 ′. It is formed so that it can be cut with relatively light pressing force.

[0017]

[Effect of the invention]

 Since the gap cleaning tool according to the present invention is provided with a brush section having a length of about 3 mm to 6 mm on a base section having a thickness of about 1 mm to 3 mm, it can be easily inserted even in a gap having a width of about 5 mm. It is very effective in cleaning the space between the mounting parts such as, the cooking utensils used in the kitchen, and the air intake of the indoor air conditioner.

Further, since the wiping portion is in a brush shape, unlike a polyurethane sponge or a cotton swab, the wiping portion is hardly worn.

Further, since the brush portion is provided in the base portion by integral molding, unlike the case where the hair is planted later on the base portion, it is not necessary to have a hair transplant allowance, and the base portion can be formed thin.

Further, since the gap cleaning tool composed of at least two or more pieces is connected via a plurality of bridging portions provided between the adjacent handle portions, the gap cleaning tools are easily separated and separated by a desired amount. It has the advantage of being usable and not falling apart during storage.

In addition, at the time of manufacture, the brush portion is not integrally implanted at the time of molding, instead of implanting the brush portion on the synthetic resin base later, so that the manufacturing cost can be reduced. In addition, even at the time of packaging, there is an effect that the gap cleaning tool does not fall apart since the gap cleaning tool is connected via the bridge portion, and packaging is easy.
