  FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a shoe cleaning apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line II-II shown in FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along line III, FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along line IV-IV shown in FIG. 2, and FIG. 5 is a side view of the VV line shown in FIG. 6 is a sectional view taken along the line VI-VI shown in FIG. 2, and FIG. 7 is a sectional view taken along the line VII-VII shown in FIG.

  With reference to these drawings, the shoe cleaning apparatus 1 includes lattice members 29a to 29d which are mounting means for mounting the bottom portion of the shoe to be cleaned, and injection means for injecting cleaning water to the bottom portion of the shoe. It is mainly composed of a certain washing water injector 9 and an ejection preventing plate 15 which is one of injection control means for preventing upward injection from the washing water injector 9. Further, a rod-like handle 8 extending upward and then extending in the center is provided on the outer side of the housing 5 for housing each device described later. A button-like switch 60 is disposed at the end of the handle 8, and each device described later is configured to operate when the switch 60 is pressed. The shoes to be cleaned are placed on the lattice members 29a to 29d and moved forward (to the right side in FIG. 2) along the lattice members 29a to 29d. Wash with 11 etc. Detailed usage will be described later.

  Each of the lattice members 29a to 29d is arranged at a predetermined interval in parallel with the shoe moving direction (front-rear direction). Therefore, the space between each of the lattice members 29a to 29d forms openings 28a to 28c penetrating vertically. Since the openings 28a to 28c are formed by the lattice members 29a to 29d, the area thereof is enlarged. Each of the lattice members 29a to 29d is disposed in the vicinity of the center in the vertical direction of the casing 5 for housing each device to be described later, and the upper surface of the flat plate-like placement portion 23 formed horizontally with the lattice members 29a to 29d. Connected in an aligned state.

  The washing water injector 9 is disposed below the lattice members 29a to 29d, and has an outer edge in the left-right direction that is orthogonal to the front-rear direction so that its upper surface is located below the openings 28a to 28c. It has a rectangular parallelepiped shape with long sides. Furthermore, a plurality of openings 10 are formed on the upper surface of the washing water injector 9. The washing water injector 9 is connected to the water supply pipe 53 on the lower side, and the water supply pipe 53 is connected to the water supply pipe 52 disposed on the outer side of the housing 5. The water supply pipe 52 is connected to a water supply apparatus (not shown), and the cleaning water is supplied to the water supply pipe 52 by driving the water supply apparatus. Then, the supplied wash water is jetted upward from the plurality of openings 10 formed on the upper surface of the wash water injector 9 through the water supply pipe 53 toward the openings 28 a to 28 c. Since the sprayed washing water comes into contact with the bottom of the shoe, the shoe is washed. Details will be described later.

  Next, the injection control means will be described.

  In the first position as shown in FIG. 2, the ejection preventing plate 15 prevents upward injection from the washing water injector 9, so as to block the upper side of the washing water injector 9. ~ 29d and the washing water injector 9 are formed in a flat plate shape. The front end portion of the ejection preventing plate 15 is bent downward to form a fixing portion 27, and one end of each of springs 16a and 16b, which are urging means described later, is connected.

  Further, bearing plates 18 a and 18 b are provided at both ends of the ejection preventing plate 15 in the left-right direction. Each of the bearing plates 18 a and 18 b is rotatably connected to a rotary shaft 35 formed to extend in the left-right direction below the washing water injector 9. Therefore, as shown by the arrow in FIG. 2, the ejection preventing plate 15 extends from the first position around the rotation shaft 35 to the second position that enables the upward injection of the washing water injector 9 described later. It is possible to rotate between them.

  Further, a flat plate-like fixing plate 17 extending in the left-right direction is disposed on the rear side of the washing water injector 9. The other ends of the springs 16 a and 16 b are connected to the fixing plate 17. Accordingly, the springs 16a and 16b are urged to return the ejection preventing plate 15 to the first position when the ejection preventing plate 15 in the first position moves to the second position by the forward rotational movement. It becomes a force means.

  Further, on the upper surface of the ejection preventing plate 15, there are provided a plate-shaped roller base 19 that is a roller means, and rollers 61, 62, 63 attached on the roller base 19 in the front-rear direction. The rollers 61, 62, 63 are formed so as to protrude obliquely upward from the upper surfaces of the lattice members 29b, 29c through the openings 28b when the ejection preventing plate 15 is in the first position as shown in FIG. Has been. The effects of the rollers 61, 62, and 63 and the setting of each position will be described later.

  Here, a brush for cleaning various surfaces of a shoe to be cleaned will be described.

  First, below the lattice members 29a to 29d and behind the washing water injector 9, a bottom washing brush 11 for washing the bottom of the shoe is partially above the upper surface of the lattice members 29a to 29d. It is provided so that it may be located in. The bottom cleaning brush 11 is formed in a columnar shape extending in the left-right direction, and a rotation shaft 36 is disposed at the center of the shaft. The rotating shaft 36 is connected to the motor 31. When the motor 31 is driven, the rotating shaft 36 rotates and the bottom cleaning brush 11 rotates.

  In addition, the bottom cleaning brush 11 is movable downward from a position before cleaning as shown in FIG. 2 as indicated by an arrow, and is urged to a position before cleaning after the movement. It is comprised by the spring etc. which are not shown in figure. Furthermore, as described above, a part of the bottom cleaning brush 11 is disposed so as to protrude above the upper surfaces of the lattice members 29a to 29d. Therefore, since the bottom part of the shoe and the bottom part cleaning brush 11 are in contact with each other, the effect of cleaning the bottom part of the shoe is further improved. Further, since the bottom cleaning brush 11 is configured to be movable in the vertical direction, there is no risk that the passage of the bottom of the shoe will be inadvertently blocked by the above-described part.

  Next, a pair of side surface cleaning brushes 12a and 12b for cleaning the side surfaces of the shoes are provided on the left and right sides above the lattice members 29a to 29d. The side surface cleaning brushes 12a and 12b are formed in a column shape extending in the vertical direction, and rotating shafts 37a and 37b are arranged at the center of the shafts. The side surface cleaning brushes 12 a and 12 b are arranged so that a part of each of the side surface cleaning brushes 12 a and 12 b overlaps above the cleaning water injector 9. The effect of the arrangement in which the side surface cleaning brushes 12a and 12b overlap will be described later. The rotating shafts 37a and 37b are connected to the motors 32a and 32b. When the motors 32a and 32b are driven, the rotating shafts 37a and 37b rotate and the side surface cleaning brushes 12a and 12b rotate.

  Further, rotary shafts 39a and 39b extending in the vertical direction are arranged on the front sides of the motors 32a and 32b, respectively. And each of this rotating shaft 39a, 39b and the upper part of each of motor 32a, 32b are connected by rod-shaped connection member 41a, 41b. Therefore, the side surface cleaning brushes 12a and 12b can move in directions away from each other as shown by arrows in FIG. That is, when the shoes to be cleaned are positioned between the side cleaning brushes 12a and 12b, the side cleaning brushes 12a and 12b can be moved so as to slide on the side surfaces of the shoes. Thereafter, when the shoe is no longer positioned between the side surface cleaning brushes 12a and 12b, it is configured to be biased to a position before cleaning as shown in FIG. 3 by a spring or the like (not shown).

  Next, a front surface cleaning brush 13 for cleaning the front surface of the shoe is provided on the upper front side of the lattice members 29a to 29d. The front cleaning brush 13 is formed in a columnar shape extending in the left-right direction, and a rotation shaft 38 is disposed at the center of the shaft. The rotating shaft 38 is connected to the motor 33. When the motor 33 is driven, the rotating shaft 38 rotates and the front cleaning brush 13 rotates. The front cleaning brush 13 is movable upward as indicated by an arrow from the position before cleaning shown in FIG. 2 and is biased to the position before cleaning after the movement, such as a spring (not shown). It is constituted by.

  Here, the member which comprises the shoe washing | cleaning apparatus 1 other than the member mentioned above is demonstrated.

  Air ejectors 54a and 54b, which are gas ejection means, are provided above the left and right sides of the lattice members 29a to 29d. Each of the air blowers 54a and 54b is arranged so as to face the vicinity of the front center from the arrangement place. Each of the air blowers 54a and 54b is connected to an air supply pipe 51 provided on the outer side of the housing 5, and by driving an air supply device (not shown), air is supplied in the above-described direction. It is configured to spout. The effects of the air blowers 54a and 54b will be described later.

  Further, a flat stopper 45 formed to extend in the left-right direction is provided on the front side of the lattice members 29a to 29d. The stopper 45 is for preventing the shoe from moving further forward, and the effect will be described later.

  Further, a drainage passage 25 that is inclined toward the front center of the housing 5 is formed in the entire lower portion in the housing 5, and a drain outlet 26 is formed on the outer side of the front center of the housing 5. Has been. Therefore, the wash water jetted from the wash water jetting machine 9 falls through the openings 28 a to 28 c after being used, and is drained from the drain outlet 26 through the drainage channel 25. An integrated net (not shown) is provided on the entire opening of the drain outlet 26. Cleaning water after use contains dirt such as turf and mud attached to shoes, and drainage and dirt can be separated by passing the cleaning water after use through this integrated net. It becomes. Accordingly, since dirt is not allowed to flow out carelessly, there is no possibility that the drainage means located downstream from the drainage port 26 will be clogged.

  Next, details and effects of the usage method of the shoe cleaning apparatus 1 will be described.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a first use state of the shoe cleaning apparatus shown in FIG. 1 and corresponds to FIG. 2, and FIG. 9 shows a second use state of the shoe cleaning apparatus shown in FIG. FIG. 10 is a diagram following the usage state of FIG. 8, and FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a third usage state of the shoe cleaning apparatus shown in FIG. 1, following the usage state of FIG. 9. FIG. 11 is a view showing a fourth use state of the shoe cleaning apparatus shown in FIG. 1, and is a continuation of the use state of FIG.

  First, referring to FIG. 8 and FIG. 3 as a reference, the user first places the shoe 3 to be cleaned on the rear side on the lattice members 29a to 29d. When the switch 60 of the handle 8 shown in FIG. 1 is pressed, the bottom cleaning brush 11, the side cleaning brushes 12a and 12b, and the front cleaning brush 13 are rotated about their respective rotation axes. Further, as shown by the arrow, the washing water is jetted upward from the washing water jetting machine 9, and the air is jetted from the air jetting machines 54a and 54b.

  At this time, since the ejection preventing plate 15 is in the first position, the washing water sprayed upward is blocked by the ejection preventing plate 15 from being injected into the openings 28a to 28c located above the washing water. . Accordingly, there is no possibility that the sprayed cleaning water passes through the openings 28a to 28c and is scattered around. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the side surface cleaning brushes 12 a and 12 b are arranged such that a part of each of the side surface cleaning brushes 12 a and 12 b overlaps above the cleaning water injector 9. Therefore, for example, even when the ejection prevention plate 15 is inadvertently moved to the second position before cleaning, it is possible to prevent the cleaning water from being ejected upward at the overlapping portion. . Therefore, the reliability in the state before washing | cleaning improves.

  In such a first use state, the bottom portion of the shoe 3 and the bottom portion cleaning brush 11 come into contact with each other, so that the bottom portion cleaning brush 11 moves downward due to the weight of the user wearing the shoe 3 or the like. .

  Then, when the shoe 3 is moved forward along the lattice members 29a to 29d from the first use state as described above and the bottom of the shoe 3 is positioned above the washing water jetting machine 9, the shoe 3 as shown in FIG. 2 will be in use. Note that when the shoe 3 is moved in the front-rear direction, the bottom part of the shoe 3 always follows the lattice members 29a to 29d, so that the shoe 3 can easily slide in the front-rear direction. Accordingly, the movement of the shoes 3 is easy and the usability is good.

  Next, referring to FIG. 9 and FIG. 3 as a reference, in the second use state, the portion protruding above the upper surface of the lattice member 29b of the roller 61 in the first use state shown in FIG. The upper end of the roller 61 is aligned with the upper surfaces of the lattice members 29a to 29d. Since the roller base 19 and the ejection prevention plate 15 are connected, the front side of the bottom of the shoe and the roller 61 engage and move so that the ejection prevention plate 15 is centered on the rotation shaft 35 with an arrow. Rotate forward as shown. Then, the ejection preventing plate 15 located above the washing water injector 9 in the first position is not located above the washing water injector 9 due to this rotational movement. Therefore, the wash water jetted upward from the wash water jetting machine 9 is jetted to the bottom of the shoe 3 through the openings 28a to 28c without being blocked by the jetting prevention plate 15 as indicated by the arrows. Therefore, unlike the conventional shoe cleaning apparatus, since the cleaning water is sprayed directly on the bottom of the shoe 3, a high cleaning effect can be expected. Further, as described above, since the areas of the openings 28a to 28c are enlarged by using the lattice members 29a to 29d, the amount of the cleaning liquid sprayed to the bottom of the shoe 3 hardly decreases, so that it is higher. A cleaning effect can be expected.

  Thus, as the shoe 61 advances forward, the roller 61 rotates and the ejection prevention plate 15 rotates, so that the ejection prevention plate 15 is smoothly moved from the first position to the second position. It becomes possible. Further, as described above, rollers 62 and 63 are provided in front of the roller 61. The rollers 62 and 63 are also used when the ejection preventing plate 15 is in the second position, that is, when the roller 61 is aligned with the upper surfaces of the lattice members 29a to 29d. It is comprised so that it may align with the upper surface of. Therefore, in this state, the forward movement of the shoe 3 is not hindered.

  In the second use state, since the shoe 3 is located between the side surface cleaning brushes 12a and 12b, the side surface cleaning brushes 12a and 12b move away from each other as described above, and slide on the side surface of the shoe 3. It becomes a moving position. At this time, the cleaning water sprayed from the cleaning water injector 9 has permeated the side surface cleaning brushes 12a and 12b. The cleaning water sprayed from the cleaning water injector 9 penetrates not only the side surface cleaning brushes 12a and 12b but also the bottom cleaning brush 11 and the front surface cleaning brush 13 due to scattering in the housing 5. Therefore, the cleaning effect of the shoes 3 is further improved in each brush.

  Then, when the shoe 3 is further moved forward along the lattice members 29a to 29d and the tip of the shoe 3 is brought into contact with the stopper 45 from such a second use state, the third use as shown in FIG. It becomes a state.

  Next, referring to FIG. 10 and FIG. 3 for reference, in the third use state, the tip of the shoe 3 abuts against the stopper 45 and the forward movement of the shoe 3 is prevented. Therefore, the shoe 3 does not move too far forward. At this time, the ejection preventing plate 15 is in the second position, and the washing water jetting machine 9 jets washing water to the bottom of the shoe 3 as in the second use state. Then, the front surface of the shoe 3 comes into contact with the front surface cleaning brush 13 and the front surface cleaning brush 13 moves upward as indicated by an arrow, and the front surface of the shoe 3 is cleaned by the front surface cleaning brush 13.

  Then, when the shoe 3 is moved rearward along the lattice members 29a to 29d from such a third use state, a fourth use state as shown in FIG. 11 is obtained.

  Next, referring to FIG. 11 and FIG. 3 as a reference, in the fourth use state, below the gap 71 between the bottom of the shoe 3 and the lattice members 29a to 29d, which is generated by the height of the heel of the shoe 3. The roller 61 is located in the position. Therefore, for example, when only the roller 61 is attached to the roller base 19, there is a possibility that the roller 61 enters the gap 71 of the shoe 3 and the front portion of the shoe 3 is caught by the roller 61 in the fourth use state. However, since the rollers 62 and 63 are attached to the front side of the roller 61, the bottom part in front of the gap 71 of the shoe 3 and the rollers 62 and 63 are engaged with each other. Can be held. That is, each of the rollers 61, 62, and 63 is aligned with the bottom surface of the bottom of the shoe 3 when the ejection preventing plate 15 is in the second position. There is no risk of getting up.

  Then, when the shoe 3 is further moved rearward from such a fourth use state, the engagement between the tip of the bottom of the shoe 3 and the roller 61 is released, and the ejection preventing plate 15 becomes the first position again. . Further, when the shoe 3 is moved backward, the washing water adhering to the shoe 3 is removed by the ejection of air from the air ejectors 54a and 54b as indicated by arrows. Accordingly, the drying time after washing the shoes 3 is shortened.

  The shoe cleaning device 1 cleans the shoe 3 in this way. That is, the shoe cleaning apparatus 1 injects cleaning water onto the bottom of the shoe 3 by the cleaning water injector 9 only when the shoe 3 is cleaned. Therefore, there is no risk that the washing water will scatter around before and after the shoe 3 is washed, and the bottom of the shoe 3 can be washed efficiently and reliably.

  In the first embodiment described above, four grid members are provided as mounting means. However, the number of grid members is not limited to four, and a plurality of grid members may be provided. Alternatively, the mounting means may be other members and structures as long as the bottom of the shoe is configured to move forward and has an opening that penetrates at least vertically.

  In the first embodiment, the washing water jet is formed in a specific shape. However, the washing water jet is arranged below the placing means and jets the washing water upward toward the opening of the placing means. Any other shape may be used.

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment described above, the washing water is ejected from the washing water jetting machine, but it goes without saying that other liquids such as washing water containing a detergent may be used.

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment described above, the injection control means is constituted by a specific member such as an ejection prevention plate. However, the injection control means is disposed between the lattice member and the cleaning water jet, and before the cleaning, If it prevents passage of the opening of the wash water sprayed from the injector, moves with the passage of the opening of the bottom of the shoe at the time of washing, and enables injection to the bottom of the shoe through the opening, You may be comprised with the other member.

  Furthermore, in said 1st Embodiment, although the ejection prevention plate is formed in the specific shape, it injected with the 1st position which blocks passage of the opening part of the wash water injected from the injection means. Any other shape may be used as long as it can freely rotate between the second position that allows the opening of the wash water to pass therethrough.

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment described above, two springs are provided as the urging means for the ejection preventing plate. However, at least one spring may be used. Alternatively, other members may be used as long as they urge the ejection preventing plate to the first position without being limited to the spring.

  Further, in the above first embodiment, the roller means has a specific structure, but is attached to the ejection preventing plate, and when the ejection preventing plate is in the first position, the upper surface of the lattice member is passed through the opening. As long as it protrudes further upward and rotates by the contact of its tip with the forward movement of the shoe, and its upper end is aligned with the upper surface of the lattice member, the blowout prevention plate moves to the second position. It may be the structure.

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment described above, three rollers are provided, but there may be no rollers, and other numbers may be used.

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment, the bottom cleaning brush, the side surface cleaning brush, and the front surface cleaning brush are provided. However, for example, other configurations such as providing only the bottom cleaning brush may be used. Alternatively, each cleaning brush may be omitted.

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment described above, each of the side surface cleaning brushes is movable in a direction away from each other by a specific member. As long as each can move in the direction away from each other, it may be composed of other members. Alternatively, such a member may not be provided.

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment described above, each of the side surface cleaning brushes is formed so as to partially overlap each other, but may not be formed so as to partially overlap each other.

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment, two air ejectors that eject air to the washed shoes are installed, but it is sufficient that at least one air ejector is installed. Or there may not be an air blower.

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment, air is ejected from the air ejector, but it goes without saying that other gases may be used, such as injecting a gas having a deodorizing effect. .
