[Prior art]
2. Description of the Related Art A hand-type air cleaner device (hereinafter referred to as “air cleaner device”) is used as a device for electrostatically removing and cleaning the inside of a container such as a cosmetic product. This air cleaner device performs cleaning by simultaneously operating a blow mechanism for ejecting static elimination air into a container and a suction mechanism for discharging the air inside the container. Conventionally, a head pushing method and a sensor are used. Detection method was used.
[0003]
The former head push-in type air cleaner device places a container on a head provided at the top of the air cleaner device, and an operator pushes the head downward to start a blow mechanism and a suction mechanism. . On the other hand, the latter sensor detection method is an air cleaner device in which when a worker places a container on the head, a container detection sensor such as a reflection type installed on the upper surface of the apparatus detects this and the blow mechanism and the suction mechanism are started. .
[0004]
However, the former head push-in type air cleaner device has a problem that fatigue of the worker due to push-in work increases, and the latter sensor detection method has a problem that light for detection is used when the container is transparent or translucent. However, there is a problem that the container cannot be detected through the container.
[0005]
In order to solve such a conventional problem, the present inventor has invented a start switch (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-188325) for a hand type air cleaner device. According to the present invention, the suction mechanism is operated in advance regardless of whether the start switch is ON or OFF, and the starter switch is used as the start switch of the blow mechanism, so that the worker can use the container as a head. The problem that the cleaning work can be performed only by placing it without pressing, and the start switch is not turned on in the case of a transparent container has been solved.
[0006]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The air cleaner device previously invented by the present inventors has succeeded in facilitating cleaning of various containers such as glass containers and tube containers filled with liquid or creamy cosmetics. However, when these containers can be easily cleaned, there has been an increasing demand for cleaning parts that have been difficult to clean. In particular, since the nozzles attached to the container mouth are used by being inserted into the container, it has been desired to clean them in the same manner as the container.
[0007]
However, not only the conventional head push-in method and sensor detection method, but also the start-up switch of the hand-type air cleaner device improved in these devices is a device that applies the opening of the container to the head and exchanges the air in the container through the head. Therefore, parts such as a container that do not have an opening such as a container cannot be cleaned.
[0008]
Therefore, the present invention was created to solve the above-mentioned problems, and a hand capable of cleaning parts other than containers, like glass containers and tube containers filled with liquid or cream cosmetics. The object is to provide an air cleaner device.
