【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は清掃具に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
清掃具として、フレームに掻き上げ体を回動自在に支持し、柄の先端部の支軸部をフレームに結合したものがある。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
柄の支軸部をフレームの重心位置に対する上方位置にスライド不能に結合しているため、使用者が柄を通じてフレームに加える力点が掻き上げ体から遠く、掻き上げ体に力が伝わりにくく掻き上げ体を回動させるのに大きな力が必要になる。また、力点が重心位置の上になるので、フレームの前進時にフレームが前のめりして転倒する虞もある。
【0004】
本発明の課題は、清掃部を不使用時に安定して床面から持ち上げできるとともに、使用時には掻き上げ体を床面上にて軽い力で回動させながら安定して前進できるようにすることにある。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
請求項1に記載の清掃具は、フレームに掻き上げ体を回動自在に支持し、柄の先端部の結合部をフレームにスライド可能に結合する清掃具であって、柄の結合部が清掃具を持上げるときにはフレームの重心位置に対する真上又は上方位置に位置付けられ、清掃時には該重心位置に対する下方位置に位置付けられるようにしたものである。
【0006】
【発明の実施の形態】
清掃具10は、図1に示す如く、柄11の先端部に継手部12を介して支持アーム13を結合し、支持アーム13の両側アーム部13Aに支軸部14を介してフレーム15を前後方向に揺動自在に支持している。
【0007】
フレーム15の前部にはブラシからなる可撓掻き上げ体16が回転軸17を介して回動自在に支持され、フレーム15の後部にはロール体からなる接触回転体18が回転軸19を介して回動自在に支持され、掻き上げ体16と接触回転体18は平行に並べられて配置される。掻き上げ体16は、掻き上げ部16A(ブラシ部)とタイヤ部16Bからなり、掻き上げ部16Aの掻き上げ径(ブラシ径)をタイヤ部16Bのタイヤ径より大きくしている。接触回転体18は、ロール状の接触部18Aとタイヤ部18Bからなる。尚、接触回転体18の接触部18Aには、その表面に凹凸部を設けても良い。凹凸部とは、接触部18Aのロール表面にリブや凸部、凹部、しぼ面等を設けたことをいう。
【0008】
掻き上げ体16と接触回転体18の上には、それらに跨がる粘着ロール21が乗せられ、粘着ロール21は掻き上げ体16と接触回転体18の回転に連れ回る。フレーム15の上部は粘着ロール21の出し入れ口とされ、取外し可能な透明カバー15Aにより被覆される。粘着ロール21は、粘着シートの巻取りロールの構成、又は表面が粘着性のエラストマーからなり、その表面を洗浄して再使用可能とする構成等を含む。本実施例の粘着ロール21は、粘着シート21Aをコア21Bに巻き回し、粘着シート21Aの粘着面を外側に向けて巻出し可能かつ切断可能にした巻取りロールにて構成される。
【0009】
フレーム15における掻き上げ体16の後部には塵取部23が支持されている。塵取部23は、床面に接する底面部23Aと、掻き上げ体16に隙間なく(又は隙間を介して)相対する曲面状(又は平面状)のすくい面部23Bと、凹状のゴミ受け部23Cを有する。塵取部23は、フレーム15に後述する如くに上下に揺動可能に支持され、自重により底面部23Aとすくい面部23Bの最下端部を床面に隙間なく接し、掻き上げ体16の掻き上げ部16Aが掻き上げるゴミを床面に沿う後方に逃がすことなく、その全てのゴミをすくい面部23Bにより粘着ロール21の側にガイドし、大きなゴミはゴミ受け部23Cに送り込む。
【0010】
清掃具10による清掃動作は以下の通りなされる。
(1)柄11の軸方向に加える操作力により清掃具10を前進させ、掻き上げ体16及び接触回転体18を回動させ、同時に粘着ロール21を連れ回り回転させる。
【0011】
(2)掻き上げ体16の掻き上げ部16Aが床面上のゴミを掻き上げると、このゴミは塵取部23にガイドされて粘着ロール21の側に送り出され、粘着ロール21の粘着面に吸着捕捉される。
【0012】
(3)粘着ロール21の粘着面に捕捉されたゴミは、粘着ロール21の回動とともに接触回転体18の側に移動し、接触回転体18により粘着ロール21の粘着面に押付けられて固定化される。
【0013】
(4)透明カバー15Aから粘着ロール21の粘着面の全周に多量のゴミが捕捉されたことが視認されたら、カバー15Aを開いて粘着シート21Aの1周分を剥離除去し、新規粘着面を露出せしめた後、カバー15Aを閉じる。
【0014】
尚、清掃具10は前進だけでなく、後進もできる。塵取部23は、底面部23Aの尾端部をアール状に跳ね上げ、後進時にこの尾端部が床面に引掛かるのを防止する。
【0015】
しかるに、清掃具10は、柄11の先端部の支軸部14におけるフレーム15の支持構造と、フレーム15による塵取部23の支持構造を以下の如くに構成している。
【0016】
(A)柄11の支軸部14によるフレーム15の支持構造(図1〜図3)
柄11の支軸部14をフレーム15の両側壁に設けた長孔30にスライド可能に結合する。長孔30は、前端部をフレーム15に掻き上げ体16、接触回転体18、粘着ロール21を組込んだ組立体の重心位置Gに対する前方下部に、後端部を重心位置Gに対する真上あるいは後方上部に配置するように、斜め後方に向けて上向きとなるように設定される。
【0017】
これにより、柄11の支軸部14は、フレーム15の上に重心位置Gに対する上方位置(図1)と、掻き上げ体16の側の下方位置(図2)との間でスライド可能に、フレーム15に結合される。
【0018】
従って、このような清掃具10によれば以下の作用がある。
▲1▼清掃具10の不使用時に、柄11を介して清掃具10を持ち上げると、柄11の支軸部14が上方にスライドしてフレーム15の重心位置Gに対する上方位置に位置付けられるから、フレーム15をひっくり返ることのない状態で安定して床面から持ち上げることができる。
【0019】
▲2▼清掃具10の使用時には、柄11を介して清掃具10を床面に押付けると、柄11の支軸部14が下方にスライドしてフレーム15の重心位置に対する掻き上げ体16の側の下方位置に位置付けられる。これにより、使用者が柄11を通じてフレーム15に加える力点が掻き上げ体16に近づき、小さな力で掻き上げ体16に大きな力を加えることができ、掻き上げ体16を床面上にて軽い力で回動させることができる。また、力点が重心位置の下になるので、フレーム15を前のめり転倒させることなく、安定して床面上を前進できる。
【0020】
これにより、カーペットは掻き上げ体16によりゴミを掻き上げられ、このゴミをその後粘着ロール21に吸着捕捉される。粘着ロール21がカーペットに直接接触しないから、カーペットを傷めることがなく、カーペットの繊維の深い部分に沈んでいるゴミも捕捉できるし、粘着ロール21の粘着性能の持続性も向上する。
【0021】
フローリングにおいても、カーペットと同様であり、粘着ロール21がフローリングに直接接触しないから、粘着ロール21がフローリングに強力に粘着して固定化してしまうことがない。
【0022】
▲3▼掻き上げ体16をブラシとするとき、上述▲2▼によりブラシを軽い力で床面上にて回動させながら安定して前進できる。
【0023】
▲4▼柄11の支軸部14をフレーム15の長孔30にスライド可能に結合したから、簡素な構成により、該支軸部14をフレーム15の重心位置Gに対する上方位置と、掻き上げ体16の側の下方位置との間でスライド可能にできる。
【0024】
(B)フレーム15による塵取部23の支持構造(図1〜図3)
塵取部23をフレーム15に対し、掻き上げ体16とは独立に上下に揺動可能に支持するとともに、塵取部23のゴミ受け部23Cをフレーム15から開放可能に支持した。
【0025】
具体的には、塵取部23における掻き上げ体16に近い側の前端を揺動部40(塵取部23の前端側両側面に設けたピン41を、フレーム15の両側壁に設けた長孔42の中で上下動可能に係入したもの)によりフレーム15に揺動可能に支持する。また、塵取部23における掻き上げ体16から遠い側の後端に設けた係脱部50の孔51を、フレーム15に設けた係脱可能ピン52に係脱可能にし、孔51を係脱可能ピン52から外して塵取部23の後端をフレーム15から開放可能に支持する。塵取部23の孔51をフレーム15の係脱可能ピン52に係入した状態で、係脱可能ピン52を塵取部23の揺動の中心軸とし、塵取部23の孔51をフレーム15の係脱可能ピン52から外した状態で、揺動部40を塵取部23の開放の中心軸とする。
【0026】
従って、このような清掃具10によれば以下の作用がある。
▲1▼塵取部23を掻き上げ体16とは独立に揺動可能としたから、清掃具10を毛足の長いカーペットに使用したとき、掻き上げ体16がカーペットの毛足の中に潜ってゴミを掻き上げながらも、塵取部23はカーペットの上面を滑るように移動して前進の抵抗にならず、操作性が良い。
【0027】
▲2▼塵取部23のゴミ受け部23Cをフレーム15から開放可能に支持したから、ゴミ受け部23Cを下向きに開放して該ゴミ受け部23Cに捕集したゴミを適宜に排出除去できる。
【0028】
▲3▼掻き上げ体16が掻き上げ部16Aと、タイヤ部16Bからなるとき、タイヤ部16Bがカーペットの毛足の中に潜っても、塵取部23はカーペットの上面を滑るように移動して前進の抵抗にならない。
【0029】
▲4▼塵取部23の一端に揺動部40を、他端に開放のための係脱可能ピン52を設けた。塵取部23の揺動部40を、該塵取部23を開放するための係脱部にしないので、揺動部40に脱着起因の摩耗等がなく、清掃時に力がかかる塵取部23の揺動部40を摩耗のない安定揺動状態(外れない状態)に維持できる。
【0030】
(その他の作用)
(1)接触回転体18は粘着ロール21と接触して該粘着ロール21を確実に連れ回り回転させる。従って、掻き上げ体16に接する粘着ロール21の粘着面を回転により均一かつ効率よく有効活用できるし、掻き上げ体16が掻き上げたゴミを粘着ロール21の新規吸着面により確実に吸着捕捉可能とする。このとき、粘着ロール21を掻き上げ体16と接触回転体18の上に跨らせるから、大小数種類のどのような外径の粘着ロール21も清掃具10に装填できる。よって、粘着ロール21の外径寸法に製造上の自由度が得られ、床状態に応じて、適切な外径の粘着ロール21を選択できる。
【0031】
(2)掻き上げ体16がカーペットの繊維の深い部分から掻き上げるゴミも、フローリングの硬い平坦面から後方に掻き飛ばすゴミも、掻き上げ体21の後部の塵取部23にすくい上げられて確実に粘着ロール21の方向にガイドされ、集塵性能を向上できる。
【0032】
(3)掻き上げ体16がタイヤ部16Bを備えるから、タイヤ部16Bは清掃具10の重量により床面に押付けられて回転し、掻き上げ体16を確実に回転させる。掻き上げ径をタイヤ径より大きくしたから、掻き上げ部16Aは弾性たわみの復元に基づく掻き上げ力によりゴミを強力に掻き上げ、掻き上げ性能を向上するし、カーペットの繊維の深い部分のゴミも良く掻き出しできる。
【0033】
(4)接触回転体18を備えることにより、粘着ロール21に粘着捕捉されているゴミを該粘着ロール21の粘着面に良く押付け固定化できる。
【0034】
(5)粘着ロール21の粘着力が強い場合、粘着ロール21と接触回転体18の接触部18Aが連れ回り回転するため、回転しにくく、操作が重くなる。そこで、接触回転体18の接触部18Aの表面に凹凸部を設ける。凹凸部とは、接触回転体18の接触部18Aの表面にリブや凸部、凹部、しぼ面等を設けたことをいう。本実施例では、最低2ヵ所以上凹凸部を設けることにより、回転を軽くすることができる。即ち、接触回転体18に凹凸部を設けることは、粘着ロール21と接触回転体18との間にすき間を形成することとなり、両者の接触面積を減らし、操作性を向上させることが可能となる。粘着ロール21と接触回転体18とが密着せずに接触回転体18に付着したゴミが粘着ロール21に転写するために、好ましい凹凸部の高さは、0.1〜0.5mm、より好ましくは0.2〜0.4mmである。
【0035】
本発明で使用される粘着ロールとして、コアロールに筒状シートを着脱可能に被せるものを使用しても良い。このとき、筒状シートの原形は、枚葉型の封筒状シートをなすものとし、多数の封筒状シートを互いに積層して保管することができる。
【0036】
また、本発明において、掻き上げ体は、ブラシに限らず、スポンジ、ゴムブレード、エラストマー、弾性突起体等でも良い。
【0037】
また、本発明において、接触回転体は、ロール体に限らず、タイヤ等でも良い。
【0038】
また、本発明において、床面とは、畳、フローリング、カーペット等で、特にカーペットに対し顕著で特有な効果を奏する。
【0039】
【発明の効果】
以上のように本発明によれば、清掃部を不使用時に安定して床面から持ち上げできるとともに、使用時には掻き上げ体を床面上にて軽い力で回動させながら安定して前進できる。

A flexible scraper 16 made of a brush is rotatably supported at the front of the frame 15 via a rotation shaft 17, and a contact rotator 18 made of a roll is provided at the rear of the frame 15 via a rotation shaft 19. The scraper 16 and the contact rotator 18 are arranged side by side in parallel. The scraping body 16 includes a scraping portion 16A (brush portion) and a tire portion 16B, and a scraping diameter (brush diameter) of the scraping portion 16A is larger than a tire diameter of the tire portion 16B. The contact rotator 18 includes a roll-shaped contact portion 18A and a tire portion 18B. The contact portion 18A of the contact rotating body 18 may be provided with an uneven portion on its surface. The uneven portion means that a rib, a convex portion, a concave portion, a grain surface, or the like is provided on the roll surface of the contact portion 18A.
[0008]
An adhesive roll 21 straddling the scraping body 16 and the contact rotating body 18 is placed on the scraping body 16 and the contact rotating body 18, and the adhesive roll 21 rotates with the rotation of the scraping body 16 and the contact rotating body 18. The upper part of the frame 15 is used as a port for the adhesive roll 21 and is covered with a removable transparent cover 15A. The pressure-sensitive adhesive roll 21 includes a structure of a winding roll of a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet, a structure in which the surface is made of a sticky elastomer, and a surface in which the surface is washed and reused. The pressure-sensitive adhesive roll 21 of the present embodiment is configured by a winding roll in which a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet 21A is wound around a core 21B, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet 21A can be unwound and cut out.
[0009]
A dust removal part 23 is supported at the rear of the scraping body 16 in the frame 15. The dust collecting portion 23 has a bottom surface portion 23A in contact with the floor surface, a curved (or flat) rake surface portion 23B opposed to the scraping body 16 without a gap (or through a gap), and a concave dust receiving portion 23C. Having. The dust removing portion 23 is supported by the frame 15 so as to be able to swing up and down as described later, and the lower end portions of the bottom surface portion 23A and the rake face portion 23B are brought into contact with the floor surface without any gap by their own weight, and the scraping body 16 is scraped up. All the dust is guided by the rake face portion 23B to the side of the adhesive roll 21 without escaping the dust which the portion 16A scrapes back along the floor, and large dust is sent to the dust receiving portion 23C.
[0010]
The cleaning operation by the cleaning tool 10 is performed as follows.
(1) The cleaning tool 10 is moved forward by an operation force applied in the axial direction of the handle 11 to rotate the scraping body 16 and the contact rotating body 18 and simultaneously rotate the adhesive roll 21 together.
[0011]
(2) When the scraping unit 16A of the scraping body 16 scrapes up dust on the floor surface, the dust is guided by the dust removing unit 23 and is sent out to the side of the adhesive roll 21, and the dust adheres to the adhesive surface of the adhesive roll 21. Adsorbed and captured.
[0012]
(3) The dust caught on the adhesive surface of the adhesive roll 21 moves to the side of the contact rotating body 18 with the rotation of the adhesive roll 21, and is pressed against the adhesive surface of the adhesive roll 21 by the contact rotating body 18 to be fixed. Is done.
[0013]
(4) When it is visually recognized that a large amount of dust is caught on the entire circumference of the adhesive surface of the adhesive roll 21 from the transparent cover 15A, the cover 15A is opened, one round of the adhesive sheet 21A is peeled off, and the new adhesive surface is removed. Then, the cover 15A is closed.
[0014]
The cleaning tool 10 can move not only forward but also backward. The dust removal portion 23 flips up the tail end of the bottom portion 23A in a round shape, and prevents the tail end from being caught on the floor surface when the vehicle moves backward.
[0015]
However, the cleaning tool 10 has a structure for supporting the frame 15 at the support shaft 14 at the tip of the handle 11 and a structure for supporting the dust removal section 23 with the frame 15 as follows.
[0016]
(A) Support structure of frame 15 by support shaft 14 of handle 11 (FIGS. 1 to 3)
The support shaft portion 14 of the handle 11 is slidably connected to long holes 30 provided on both side walls of the frame 15. The long hole 30 has a front end at a lower front portion with respect to the center of gravity G of the assembly in which the scraper 16, the contact rotating body 18, and the adhesive roll 21 are assembled into the frame 15, and a rear end directly above or below the center of gravity G. It is set so as to be obliquely rearward and upward so as to be disposed at the rear upper part.
[0017]
Thereby, the support shaft portion 14 of the handle 11 is slidable on the frame 15 between an upper position with respect to the center of gravity position G (FIG. 1) and a lower position on the side of the scraping body 16 (FIG. 2), It is connected to the frame 15.
[0018]
Therefore, the cleaning tool 10 has the following effects.
{Circle around (1)} When the cleaning tool 10 is lifted via the handle 11 when the cleaning tool 10 is not used, the support shaft portion 14 of the handle 11 slides upward and is positioned at an upper position with respect to the center of gravity G of the frame 15. The frame 15 can be stably lifted from the floor without being turned over.
[0019]
{Circle over (2)} When the cleaning tool 10 is used, when the cleaning tool 10 is pressed against the floor surface via the handle 11, the support shaft portion 14 of the handle 11 slides downward and the scraping body 16 moves relative to the position of the center of gravity of the frame 15. Located in the lower position of the side. As a result, the point of force applied by the user to the frame 15 through the handle 11 approaches the scraping body 16, and a large force can be applied to the scraping body 16 with a small force, and the scraping body 16 can be applied with a light force on the floor. Can be rotated. Also, since the point of force is below the position of the center of gravity, the frame 15 can be stably advanced on the floor without turning over and falling.
[0020]
As a result, the carpet is scraped up by the scraper 16 and the dust is thereafter adsorbed and captured by the adhesive roll 21. Since the adhesive roll 21 does not come into direct contact with the carpet, the carpet is not damaged, dust that sinks in the deep part of the fiber of the carpet can be captured, and the durability of the adhesive performance of the adhesive roll 21 is improved.
[0021]
The flooring is also similar to the carpet, and since the adhesive roll 21 does not directly contact the flooring, the adhesive roll 21 does not strongly adhere to the flooring and is not fixed.
[0022]
{Circle around (3)} When the scraping body 16 is a brush, the brush can be stably moved forward by rotating the brush on the floor surface with a small force by the above-mentioned <2>.
[0023]
{Circle around (4)} Since the support shaft portion 14 of the handle 11 is slidably coupled to the long hole 30 of the frame 15, the support shaft portion 14 can be moved upward with respect to the center of gravity G of the frame 15 by a simple configuration. It may be slidable between a lower position on the 16 side.
[0024]
(B) Structure for supporting the dust collecting portion 23 by the frame 15 (FIGS. 1 to 3)
The dust collecting portion 23 is swingably supported vertically with respect to the frame 15 independently of the scraping body 16, and the dust receiving portion 23 C of the dust collecting portion 23 is supported so as to be openable from the frame 15.
[0025]
Specifically, the front end of the dust collecting portion 23 on the side close to the scraping body 16 is provided with the swinging portion 40 (a pin 41 provided on both sides of the front end of the dust collecting portion 23 is provided on both side walls of the frame 15. It is swingably supported on the frame 15 by a vertically movable member in the hole 42). Further, the hole 51 of the engaging / disengaging portion 50 provided at the rear end of the dust removal portion 23 on the side remote from the scraping body 16 is made detachable with the detachable pin 52 provided on the frame 15, and the hole 51 is disengaged. The rear end of the dust removal section 23 is detachably supported from the frame 15 by being detached from the possible pin 52. In a state where the hole 51 of the dust collecting section 23 is engaged with the detachable pin 52 of the frame 15, the detachable pin 52 is used as the center axis of the swing of the dust collecting section 23, and the hole 51 of the dust collecting section 23 is used as the frame. The swinging part 40 is set as the central axis of the opening of the dust removal part 23 in a state where the swinging part 40 is detached from the 15 detachable pins 52.
[0026]
Therefore, the cleaning tool 10 has the following effects.
{Circle around (1)} Since the dust removing portion 23 can be swung independently of the scraping body 16, when the cleaning tool 10 is used on a carpet having a long bristle, the scraping body 16 falls into the bristle of the carpet. While the dust is being scraped up, the dust collecting portion 23 moves so as to slide on the upper surface of the carpet and does not become a resistance to forward movement, so that operability is good.
[0027]
{Circle around (2)} Since the dust receiving portion 23C of the dust removing portion 23 is supported so as to be openable from the frame 15, the dust receiving portion 23C can be opened downward so that dust collected in the dust receiving portion 23C can be appropriately discharged and removed.
[0028]
{Circle around (3)} When the scraping body 16 is composed of the scraping portion 16A and the tire portion 16B, even if the tire portion 16B dives into the bristle feet of the carpet, the dust removing portion 23 moves so as to slide on the upper surface of the carpet.

(Other effects)
(1) The contact rotating body 18 comes into contact with the adhesive roll 21 to surely rotate the adhesive roll 21 together. Accordingly, the adhesive surface of the adhesive roll 21 in contact with the scraping body 16 can be uniformly and efficiently used effectively by rotation, and the dust scraped by the scraping body 16 can be surely adsorbed and captured by the new suction surface of the adhesive roll 21. I do. At this time, since the adhesive roll 21 is straddled over the scraping body 16 and the contact rotating body 18, any number of large and small types of adhesive rolls 21 having any outer diameter can be loaded into the cleaning tool 10. Therefore, the degree of freedom in manufacturing the outer diameter of the adhesive roll 21 is obtained, and the adhesive roll 21 having an appropriate outer diameter can be selected according to the floor condition.
[0031]
(2) The dust that the scraping body 16 scrapes from the deep portion of the fiber of the carpet and the dust that scrapes back from the hard flat surface of the flooring are reliably scooped up by the dust collecting portion 23 at the rear of the scraping body 21. Guided in the direction of the adhesive roll 21, dust collection performance can be improved.
[0032]
(3) Since the scraping body 16 includes the tire portion 16B, the tire portion 16B is pressed against the floor surface by the weight of the cleaning tool 10 and rotates, so that the scraping body 16 is reliably rotated. Since the scraping diameter is made larger than the tire diameter, the scraping part 16A strongly scrapes up dust by the scraping force based on the restoration of the elastic deflection to improve the scraping performance, and also removes the dust in the deep portion of the carpet fiber. Can be scraped well.
[0033]
(4) With the provision of the contact rotating body 18, dust caught by the adhesive roll 21 can be pressed and fixed to the adhesive surface of the adhesive roll 21.
[0034]
(5) When the adhesive force of the adhesive roll 21 is strong, the adhesive roll 21 and the contact portion 18A of the contact rotating body 18 rotate together, so that it is difficult to rotate and the operation becomes heavy. Therefore, an uneven portion is provided on the surface of the contact portion 18A of the contact rotating body 18. The uneven portion means that a rib, a convex portion, a concave portion, a grain surface, or the like is provided on the surface of the contact portion 18A of the contact rotating body 18. In this embodiment, the rotation can be reduced by providing at least two uneven portions. That is, providing the concavo-convex portion on the contact rotating body 18 forms a gap between the adhesive roll 21 and the contact rotating body 18, reducing the contact area between them and improving the operability. . In order for the dust attached to the contact rotating body 18 to be transferred to the adhesive roll 21 without the adhesive roll 21 and the contact rotating body 18 being in close contact with each other, the preferable height of the uneven portion is 0.1 to 0.5 mm, more preferably. Is 0.2 to 0.4 mm.
