Description

  The present invention relates to a clog remover that removes contents such as a hardened container.

Architectural sealing material, which is a kind of hardened contents, is generally called caulking material, and the container equipped with a nozzle is attached to the caulking gun as a cartridge and pushed out of the container to keep the building waterproof and airtight. It fills the seams and gaps in the outer walls and window frames of the building.
Sealing materials include silicones, polyurethanes, modified silicones, polysulfites, urethanes, and other materials, but the caulking materials that are usually used in many sites are normally pasty. It hardens after a while after filling.

Therefore, when the filling operation is finished and the nozzle is left attached to the container mouth, the caulking material in the nozzle also begins to harden, eventually the hardened part extends from the nozzle to the inside of the container shoulder, and then continues. Even if the work is continued, the paste-like caulking material cannot be pushed out of the container.
A large amount of paste-like caulking material remaining in the container was discarded without being used.

As a technique for using up the paste-like caulking material in the container, there is “Elyon Ecocap” manufactured by Elyon Corporation and marketed by Aluminum Hiroshima. However, in this case, the cap is perfectly attached to the mouth of the container after use, and the contact between the surface of the paste-like caulking material in the container and the air outside the container is completely cut off, and the paste-like caulking material is cured. Does not happen from the beginning. It is not a technique in which the paste-like caulking material in the container is used up by removing the caulking material that has hardened from the mouth or the mouth to the shoulder of the container.
In addition, there is no technical document prior to the present invention for removing the cured portion.

  The problem to be solved by the present invention is to completely and easily remove the contents of the hardened container, and to remove the hardened caulking material all at once. The goal is to allow the sealing work to continue immediately.

In order to remove the contents of the cured container completely, easily and quickly, the present invention particularly adopts the following means.
A handle is provided on the outer periphery of the rear end of the cylindrical body having an outer diameter slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the container mouth, the front edge of the cylindrical body is formed on the cutting edge, and several claws are formed on the inner wall of the cylindrical body in the vicinity of the cutting edge. Was raised in a step.

In order to not only remove the hardened part of the container contents, but also remove the hardened part of the cylindrical body contents or the nozzle contents of the container at once, the present invention is designed so that the sealing operation can be continued immediately. In particular, the following means were combined with the above means.
The handle was attached to a drill having an outer diameter slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the cylindrical body or the nozzle of the container.

The clogging removing tool for the container contents and the clogging removing tool for the cylindrical contents or the nozzle contents of the container are used in combination as follows.
In the use of a hardened content such as a caulking material, even if the hardened portion of the container can be removed, the sealing operation cannot be continued if the hardened portion remains in the nozzle of the container used together. In addition, if a hardened portion remains in the cylindrical body of the clog remover, the clog remover can no longer be used, which also hinders the continuation of the work.
Therefore, in a sealing operation where it is necessary to always remove the hardened part of the container equipped with the nozzle, the clogging removal tool for the container contents and the clogging removal tool for the cylindrical contents or the nozzle contents of the container are of the same type. The function of removing the cured part of the cylindrical contents or the nozzle contents of the container is the same as the function of removing the cured part of the container contents, and the painter is cured by touching the outside air. It creates a use value related to each other in that it removes the hardened part and makes all the unhardened part available.

In order to remove the cured caulking material as quickly as possible, the present invention particularly adopts the following means.
The length of the cylindrical body was slightly longer than the cured portion of the caulking material cured from the mouth portion to the shoulder portion of the caulking material container.

The present invention enables the following operations by the above configuration.
When the cutting edge of the cylindrical body is pressed against the surface of the cured part of the container mouth part from which the nozzle has been removed and the handle is turned while pressing, the cutting edge formed on the leading edge of the cylindrical body tears the cured part, and the cylindrical body It enters into the hardened part.
If the hardened part extends to the inside of the shoulder part of the container, use a clogging removal tool whose length of the cylinder is slightly longer than the hardened part of the caulking material hardened from the mouth part to the shoulder part of the caulking material container. . Thereby, the hardened | cured part of the content which exists above a cutting blade can be removed all at once.

When the cylinder is fully inserted into the hardened part, it is pulled out. Then, the hardened part that has entered the inside of the cylindrical body is hooked by a claw protruding from the inner wall of the cylindrical body, and is pulled out together with the cylindrical body. That is, the removal of the cured portion is complete, easy, and quick and reliable.
Since the outer diameter of the cylindrical body is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the container mouth, almost all the clogged portions that blocked the container mouth are removed, and the paste-like contents flow out very smoothly during subsequent operations. Is called.

  The claws protruding on the inner wall of the cylindrical body in the vicinity of the cutting edge are stepped, so when the cylindrical body enters, it cuts into the outer periphery of the hardened part and pulls out the cylindrical body In this case, the hardened portion is firmly hooked to the lower end of the hardened portion, and the hardened portion is surely pulled up together with the cylindrical body, which is useful for pulling out.

The removal of the hardened portion of the cylindrical contents or the nozzle contents of the container is performed as follows.
Push the tip of the drill against the hardened part surface of the cylinder (the handle is provided on the outer periphery of the rear end of the cylinder, so the tip of the drill is pushed against the hardened part surface from both the top and bottom surfaces of the cylinder) When the handle is turned while pressing, the crest of the drill cuts the hardened portion and the drill enters the hardened portion.
When the drill is fully screwed into the hardened part, pull it out. Then, the hardened portion is hooked on the thread of the drill and pulled out with the drill.
The removal of the cured portion of the nozzle contents of the container is performed in the same manner.
Since the outer diameter of the drill is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the cylinder or the nozzle of the container, almost all the clogged portions are extracted.

It is an Example of the clogging removal tool of a container content, (a) is the upper end side view, (b) is the front view, (c) is AA sectional drawing of a cylindrical body. It is a clogging removal tool for the cylindrical body contents or the nozzle contents of the container, (a) is an upper end view thereof, and (b) is a front view thereof.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

As the material of the cylindrical body 1, polyacetal which is excellent in slipperiness and strength and strong in solvents such as thinner is recommended.
As the handle 2, various known shapes are used, but the one shown in FIG. 1 is preferable in consideration of the hardness of the cured portion, ease of use, production cost, and the like.
Care must be taken in selecting the shape of the cutting blade 3. This is because the hardness, stickiness, and the like of the contents are not uniform. Therefore, these points must be taken into consideration, but the one shown in FIG. 1 is recommended for the caulking material.

The claw 4 protrudes from the inner wall of the cylindrical body 1 in the vicinity of the cutting edge 3.
Although the number may be three or more, it has been confirmed as a result of experiments that two are enough to effectively perform the cutting action and the hooking action on the hardened portion of the caulking material.

The outer diameter of the cylindrical body 1 is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the mouth of the container. Regarding the caulking material container, the inner diameter of the mouth is 15 mm in the case of a commercially available product, so that it is appropriately determined based on that.
When the length of the cylindrical body 1 is slightly longer than the cured portion of the caulking material cured from the mouth portion to the shoulder portion of the caulking material container, the length of the commercially available caulking material container is 45 mm at the maximum. It should be about.

  The present invention not only helps economic use of paste-like contents in containers that have become unusable due to curing, such as caulking materials, and improves the efficiency of various operations that use them, but is also a necessity for daily carpenters in ordinary households. It can also be used widely as such.
