Description

The present invention relates to a laundry apparatus.

Dry cleaning using an organic solvent can well remove oil stains such as oil stains and lipsticks that are difficult to remove by washing with ordinary water.
However, since organic solvents are flammable and dissolve plastic, it is necessary to use a special machine for each process. In addition, since the used organic solvent cannot be poured into sewage, it can be recovered and reused.
For this reason, dry cleaning cannot be performed in a so-called coin laundry. This was also the case with household laundry equipment.

However, in recent years, a new cleaning method called wet cleaning having a cleaning ability equivalent to that of dry cleaning has been devised.
This wet cleaning uses a special wet cleaning detergent without using an organic solvent. For this reason, this wet cleaning can be performed even in a coil laundry.

This wet cleaning is performed in the following steps.
(1) Water and a wet cleaning detergent are put into a washing tub of a washing machine, and both are stirred and mixed to obtain a high concentration washing liquid. In addition, in the coin laundry, a so-called drum type washing machine in which the opening of the washing tub is formed in the front of the washing machine is used. It is necessary to keep it so that the washing liquid does not spill.
(2) Put the laundry into the washing tub.
(3) Pre-washing the laundry with the high-concentration washing liquid.
(4) The main washing is performed after the pre-washing. This main washing is performed by increasing the amount of water.
(5) After the main washing, rinsing, dehydration, loosening, and drying are performed.

  In the above-described wet cleaning, it is necessary to add laundry after mixing water and a detergent for wet cleaning to obtain a washing liquid. In other words, if the laundry is put in first, it is not possible to take advantage of the unique features of the coin laundry that the washing and drying are performed automatically.

  The present invention was devised in view of the above circumstances, and provides a laundry device that automatically performs washing and drying after the laundry is first put in even if it is wet cleaning. The purpose is to do.

  A laundry apparatus according to the present invention includes a detergent tank for storing a liquid wet cleaning detergent, a mixing faucet for adjusting the temperature of washing water, a wet cleaning detergent from the detergent tank, and a temperature-adjusted washing water. A mixing section that mixes the washing liquid into a washing liquid, a flow path section that guides the washing liquid mixed in the mixing section to the washing machine, and a coin-type laundry that is supplied with the washing liquid and water through the flow path section. The flow path portion includes a pipe portion having a cross-sectional area X and a stirring portion having a cross-sectional area Y, and X <Y.

In the laundry device according to the present invention, the washing water and the detergent for wet cleaning are mixed in the mixing unit, and the washing liquid is adjusted to a concentration suitable for wet cleaning. There is no need to make washing liquid. Moreover, since the flow path portion is provided with a stirring portion that naturally generates turbulent flow, the washing liquid is a mixture of the washing water and the detergent for wet cleaning, which is made uniform.
For this reason, it is not necessary to open the lid of the washing tub from when the laundry is put into the washing machine until the drying is completed until the washing is completed. After that, it will automatically do everything from washing to drying.

  In addition, when a plurality of agitation parts are provided in the flow path part, the washing liquid is made more uniform, so that more reliable washing is possible.

It is a schematic explanatory drawing of the laundry apparatus which concerns on embodiment of this invention.

  A laundry apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a detergent tank 100 for storing a liquid wet cleaning detergent, a mixing faucet 200 for adjusting the temperature of washing water, and a wet cleaning detergent from the detergent tank 100. And a mixing unit 300 that mixes the temperature-adjusted washing water into a washing liquid, a flow path part 400 that guides the washing liquid mixed in the mixing part 300 to the coin-type washing machine 500, and the flow path part 400 A coin-type washing machine 500 to which washing liquid and water are supplied, and the flow path portion 400 includes three pipe portions 410A, 410B, 410C having a cross-sectional area X and two cross-sectional areas Y. It consists of two stirring parts 420A and 420B, and X <Y.

  First, the mixing faucet 200 has a function of supplying water from the water supply path 210 and warm water from the hot water supply path 220, mixing the supplied water and hot water, and discharging the mixed water as washing water from the discharge pipe 230. Have. The mixing faucet 200 is preferably provided with a thermostat in order to make the temperature of the discharged washing water suitable for a wet cleaning detergent.

On the other hand, the detergent tank 100 stores a predetermined amount of wet cleaning detergent. The detergent tank 100 may be a stationary tank or a wet cleaning detergent packaging container itself.
In the case of the stationary detergent tank 100, it is desirable to provide a pump for guiding the stored wet cleaning detergent to the mixing unit 300 described later.

The mixing unit 300 has a function of mixing the washing water discharged from the mixing faucet 200 and the wet cleaning detergent supplied from the detergent tank 100 into a washing liquid having a concentration suitable for wet cleaning. ing. The washing water is discharged from the discharge pipe 230 of the mixing tap 200 and guided to the mixing unit 300 by itself.
On the other hand, a wet cleaning detergent is supplied to the mixing unit 300 from the detergent tank 100. The detergent tank 100 having the above-described pump may be used. However, in the case of a type without a pump (for example, a packaging container for a wet cleaning detergent itself), the mixing unit 300 itself includes a pump. Or it is necessary to supply the wet cleaning detergent through a pump.
The mixing part 300 is connected to the first pipe part 410A of the flow path part 400.

The flow path unit 400 includes a total of three pipe parts including a first pipe part 410A, a second pipe part 410B, and a third pipe part 410C, a first stirring part 420A, and a second stirring part. It consists of a total of two agitation parts with the part 420B.
Further, the three pipe parts 410A, 410B, 410C include a first pipe part 410A that connects the mixing part 300 and the first stirring part 420A, a first stirring part 420A, and a second stirring part 420B. And a second pipe portion 410B for connecting the second stirring portion 420B and the coin-type washing machine 500 to the third pipe portion 410C.
