Description

  The present invention relates to a window cleaning tool for cleaning a window glass.

  In cleaning the window glass, for example, a plurality of window cleaning tools as described below are used. One is a cleaning tool in which a cloth body (called shampoo cover) for containing glass cleaning liquid is attached to the tip of the grip via a holder, and the other is rubber for wiping the cleaning liquid adhering to the glass surface. A wiping tool in which a blade is attached to the tip of a grip via a holder.

  In actual glass cleaning, first, the cleaning liquid is included in the cloth body of the cleaning tool, the cloth body is brought into contact with the glass surface, and the cleaning liquid is applied to the glass surface. Thereafter, the glass is cleaned by changing to a wiping tool and wiping the cleaning solution with a rubber blade.

  As described above, since the cloth body and the rubber blade are attached to different tools, when using the cloth body or the rubber blade, the grip of each tool must be changed each time, which is complicated. Therefore, a window cleaning tool has been devised in which both the cloth body and the rubber blade are integrally attached.

  In Patent Document 1 below, a channel portion having a rubber suitable for wiping the glass surface at its tip is formed into a hollow structure, a cleaning liquid tank is provided in the hollow portion, and one end is in contact with the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid tank. A window wiping tool provided with a water supply body (corresponding to a “cloth body”) attached to is described. The water supply body is inclined with respect to the rubber.

  The following Patent Document 2 includes a horizontally extending channel portion, a handle portion provided vertically in the center of the base end portion of the channel portion, and a flat blade portion provided along the distal end portion of the channel portion. In addition, there is described a window cleaning tool in which a rod-shaped washer member (corresponding to a “cloth body”) is provided along the base end portion of the channel portion. The washer member has a cleaning pipe inserted therein, and the cleaning pipe is connected to a tube for supplying a cleaning liquid.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-299708 Utility Model Registration No. 3145517

  In the window wiping tool of the said patent document 1, glass cleaning is performed by making a water supply body contact a window glass, apply | coat cleaning liquid, and wipe off the cleaning liquid with a rubber. In this window cleaning tool, since the rubber and the water supply body are attached to the same channel, the respective tips are arranged close to each other. For this reason, it is difficult to adjust the angle so that only the rubber is brought into contact with the window glass or only the water supply body is brought into contact with the window glass, and when applying the cleaning liquid using the water supply body, not only the water supply body but also the tip of the rubber However, it will come into contact with the window glass and a light operational feeling cannot be obtained. In addition, if the water supply body is brought into surface contact with the window glass, the channel part and grip will hit the window glass, so only the tip of the water supply body will be pressed against the window glass surface, and the cleaning liquid will be quickly applied to the window glass. The disadvantage that it cannot be applied occurs.

  On the other hand, also with the window wiping tool described in Patent Document 2, glass cleaning is performed by applying a cleaning liquid by bringing a washer member into contact with the window glass and wiping the cleaning liquid with a blade portion. However, in the window wiping tool of Patent Document 2, the washer member has a structure in which a fiber material is attached to the outer periphery of the cleaning tube. Therefore, the outer diameter of the washer member is large and thick, and only the blade portion is brought into contact with the window glass. If it tries to do so, the handle part must be in a state where it is considerably raised with respect to the window glass, and it becomes difficult to move the blade part as intended by the operator, and the workability posture becomes unreasonable, and the workability point There is a problem. Further, when the blade is moved while turning back so as to draw a figure 8 while wiping the cleaning liquid with the blade, the washer member may come into contact with the portion wiped with the blade and the cleaning liquid may adhere again.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to allow the cloth body impregnated with the cleaning liquid to be brought into surface contact when applying the cleaning liquid to the window glass, so that it can be applied with a light operational feeling and good workability, and the cleaning liquid is wiped off with a squeegee In this case, it is an object to provide a window wiping tool which can prevent the cleaning liquid from adhering to the wiped portion and reattaching the cleaning liquid.

To achieve the above object, the window cleaning tool of the present invention is a window cleaning tool for cleaning a window glass,
Grip,
A squeegee attached substantially perpendicular to the tip of the grip;
A cleaning liquid applicator attached in parallel so as to be positioned below the squeegee via a spacer on the grip;
The squeegee has a blade holder fixed at a predetermined angle with respect to the grip, and a plate-like rubber blade held by the blade holder,
The cleaning liquid applicator has a wiper holder attached to the grip via the spacer, and a cleaning liquid impregnated cloth body detachably attached to at least the lower surface of the wiper holder,
The tip of the wiper holder is positioned closer to the base end side of the grip than the tip of the rubber blade, and the angle of the lower surface of the wiper holder gradually approaches the tip of the rubber blade in the tip direction. Is inclined so that
In a state where the cloth body attached to the lower surface of the wiper holder is in surface contact with the glass surface of the window glass, the tip of the rubber blade does not contact the glass surface, and between the grip grip portion and the glass surface. , Is configured to provide a gap that can be gripped ,
The wiper holder is composed of an upper and lower wall and a side wall connecting the base end sides thereof. Both end surfaces in the length direction are opened, and the upper and lower walls are close to each other so that a slit-like opening is provided at the tip. Made of resin material,
The cloth body is held by holding one side side along the length direction between the upper and lower walls of the wiper holder, and the other side side protrudes from the slit-shaped opening, and the lower surface of the wiper holder It is characterized by being fixed through a hook-and-loop fastener .

  According to the above invention, when the glass surface is wiped with the cleaning liquid application body, the cloth body impregnated with the cleaning liquid, which is attached to the lower surface of the wiper holder, can be brought into surface contact with the glass surface of the window glass. In this state, a sufficient gap is provided between the grip grip part and the glass surface, so that the grip can be gripped firmly without hitting the window glass and damaging the glass. Since the tip of the glass does not contact the glass surface, it is possible to apply the cleaning liquid lightly with light resistance by bringing only the cleaning liquid application body into contact with the glass surface. In this case, workability similar to that obtained when a conventional tool with a single cleaning liquid application body is used is obtained.

  Further, if the grip is slightly raised and pressed away from the window glass, only the tip of the squeegee rubber blade contacts the window glass, so that the cleaning liquid adhering to the window glass can be wiped off. Even if the window wiping tool is moved so as to cut back while drawing the figure 8, it is possible to prevent the cleaning liquid from adhering again due to the cloth of the cleaning liquid applying body contacting the portion wiped with the squeegee. In this case, workability similar to that obtained when a conventional squeegee-only tool is used can be obtained.

  In addition, if the grip angle is pressed against the window glass so that it is in the middle, the cloth of the cleaning liquid application body and the rubber blade of the squeegee simultaneously contact the window glass, so the cleaning liquid is applied with the cloth body. The cleaning liquid can also be wiped off with a rubber blade.

  In addition, since the cleaning liquid application body can be shaken to some extent with respect to the squeegee, for example, flexibly responds to subtle changes in the angle when wiping back while drawing a figure 8, and increases the degree of adhesion to the window glass. be able to.

Furthermore, the cloth body can be easily attached to the wiper holder by sandwiching one side of the cloth body between the upper and lower walls of the wiper holder and fixing the other side of the cloth body to the lower surface of the wiper holder with a hook-and-loop fastener. Detachable. Therefore, when the cloth is dirty, the cloth can be easily removed and cleaned.When the work is finished, the cloth can be easily removed and stored in a plastic bag, etc. You can move to the site.

  In addition, the cloth body is sandwiched between the upper and lower walls of the wiper holder on one side and the other side is fixed to the lower surface of the wiper holder with a hook-and-loop fastener. It can prevent falling off.

  Further, since the wiper holder is open at both end surfaces in the length direction, the cleaning liquid is easily impregnated on the other side sandwiched between the wiper holders of the cloth body when replenished by immersing in the cleaning liquid. In addition, since the cleaning liquid impregnated on the other side is supplied to the other side by capillary action through the slit-shaped opening, the cloth can be held better and workability can be improved. .

  In the window cleaning tool of the present invention, it is preferable that both end surfaces of the wiper holder in the length direction are inclined and cut so as to gradually become shorter toward the base end side of the grip.

  According to this, for example, when wiping a window so as to draw an arc, the corner on the base end side of the wiper holder is less likely to hit the window frame, etc., so that the wiping operation is interrupted or the window frame is damaged. It can be prevented. When the wiper holder is employed, the upper and lower walls can be easily opened at both ends of the wiper holder, so that the cloth body can be easily inserted into the slit and the cloth body can be easily attached.

  In the window cleaning tool of the present invention, the distance between the tip of the rubber blade and the tip of the wiper holder is 10 to 35 mm, and the portion that is in surface contact with the flat surface of the rubber blade and the glass surface of the cloth body Is preferably 22 to 38 °.

  According to this, it becomes easier to switch between the three states, and when the grip is laid down and only the cloth of the cleaning liquid applying body is brought into contact with the window glass, the grip comes into contact with the window glass. It can be prevented more reliably.

  In the window cleaning tool of the present invention, the spacer is preferably made of an elastic resin material. According to this, since a washing | cleaning-liquid provision body can shake more flexibly with respect to a squeegee, it can respond flexibly to the change of a delicate angle with respect to a window glass, and can improve the adhesion degree with respect to a window glass more. Even if the cleaning liquid application body is pressed more strongly than necessary against the glass surface, the excessive pressing force from the grip is absorbed and dispersed by the spacer made of the elastic resin material, so that the cleaning liquid application body is appropriately applied to the glass surface. It can be pressed with great force.

  According to the present invention, when the glass surface is wiped with the cleaning liquid application body, the cloth body, which is attached to the lower surface of the wiper holder and impregnated with the cleaning liquid, can be wiped efficiently by bringing the glass surface of the window glass into surface contact. . At this time, since a sufficient gap is provided between the grip portion of the grip and the glass surface, the grip can be firmly gripped and wiped without hitting the window glass and damaging the glass. Further, since the tip of the rubber blade does not contact the glass surface, it is possible to apply the cleaning liquid easily with light resistance by bringing only the cleaning liquid application body into contact with the glass surface.

  Further, if the grip is slightly raised and pressed away from the window glass, only the tip of the squeegee rubber blade contacts the window glass, so that the cleaning liquid adhering to the window glass can be wiped off. Even if the window wiping tool is moved so as to cut back while drawing the figure 8, it is possible to prevent the cleaning liquid from adhering again due to the cloth of the cleaning liquid applying body contacting the portion wiped with the squeegee.

  In addition, if the grip angle is pressed against the window glass so that it is in the middle, the cloth of the cleaning liquid application body and the rubber blade of the squeegee simultaneously contact the window glass, so the cleaning liquid is applied with the cloth body. The cleaning liquid can also be wiped off with a rubber blade. At that time, since the cleaning liquid applicator can be shaken to some extent with respect to the squeegee, for example, flexibly responds to subtle changes in angle when wiping back while drawing a figure 8, and adheres both to the window glass. The degree can be increased.

Thus, when the lower wall 53 of the wiper holder 51 has a curved surface shape, the cloth body 60 is in close contact with the glass surface over the almost entire width of the wiper holder 51 and is closest to the glass surface 3. A surface that is a tangent line at a location is defined as a lower surface K.

  Next, the usage method and effect of the window cleaning tool 10 according to the present invention configured as described above will be described.

  First, a method for attaching the cloth body 60 to the wiper holder 51 will be described with reference to FIGS. First, the one side in the length direction of the lower half of the cloth body 60 is inserted into the opening on one side in the length direction of the wiper holder 51 (see FIG. 3). At this time, the upper wall 52 and the lower wall 53 are slightly opened, and the one side portion of the cloth body 60 is inserted with the opening on one side in the length direction of the wiper holder 51 and the slit-like opening portion 55 being widened. To do. At this time, in this embodiment, the first inclined portion 56 and the second inclined portion 57 are formed on one end surface in the length direction of the wiper holder 51 so as to be gradually shortened toward the proximal end portion of the grip 20. Since one side in the length direction of the walls 52 and 53 is relatively flexible, the upper and lower walls 52 and 53 can be easily opened, and one side of the cloth body 60 can be easily inserted into the wiper holder 51. The cloth body 60 can be attached smoothly.

  As described above, with one side portion of the cloth body 60 inserted into the wiper holder 51 and sandwiched between the upper and lower walls 52 and 53, the cloth body 60 is slid as shown in FIG. As shown, the lengthwise both sides of the wiper holder 51 and the lengthwise both sides of the cloth body 60 are aligned.

  In the above state, as shown in FIG. 6, the upper half portion of the cloth body 60 to which the surface fastener 62 is sewn is folded back toward the surface fastener 58 of the wiper holder 51 (see the arrow in FIG. 6). , 58 are fixed to each other, the cloth body 60 can be attached to the wiper holder 51 as shown in FIGS. In addition, as shown in FIG. 8, since the part located in the slit-shaped opening 55 of the cloth body 60 is sandwiched and crushed by the narrowed tip portions 52b and 53b of the upper and lower walls 52 and 53, The thickness is thinner than the thickness of the upper half of the one side (the portion where the surface fastener 58 is sewn) and the lower half of the other side.

  Further, when it is desired to remove the cloth body 60 from the wiper holder 51, the upper half portion of the cloth body 60 is peeled off from the wiper holder 51, and then the lower half portion of the cloth body 60 is extracted from the slit-shaped opening 55. Thus, the cloth body 60 can be removed.

  That is, in this embodiment, the lower half portion of the cloth body 60 is sandwiched between the upper and lower walls 52 and 53 of the wiper holder 51, and the upper half portion of the cloth body 60 is attached to the lower surface K of the wiper holder 51 with the hook-and-loop fasteners 62 and 58. By fixing, the cloth body 60 can be attached to the wiper holder 51, and the upper half part of the cloth body 60 is peeled off from the lower surface of the wiper holder 51, and the lower half part of the cloth body 60 is peeled off from the wiper holder 51. By pulling out from the inside, the cloth body 60 can be easily attached to and detached from the wiper holder 51.

  As a result, for example, when the cloth body 60 becomes dirty, the cloth body 60 can be easily removed and cleaned. When the work is finished, the cloth body 60 is removed, squeezed out as necessary, and stored in a plastic bag or the like, so that even if the cloth body 60 is wet, the surroundings are not wetted. Can be moved to the work site.

  In addition, the cloth body 60 is sandwiched between the upper and lower walls 52 and 53 of the wiper holder 51 and the upper half is fixed to the lower surface K of the wiper holder 51 with hook and loop fasteners 62 and 58. Since both the lower half part and the upper half part of the cloth body 60 are held, for example, it is possible to more reliably prevent the cloth body 60 from falling off and dropping when working at a high place. .

  And in order to clean the window glass 1 using the window cleaning tool 10, it can carry out as follows, for example. That is, the cloth body 60 is attached to the cleaning liquid filled in a bucket or the like, the cloth body 60 is impregnated with the cleaning liquid, the grip portion 22 of the grip 20 is gripped, and the cloth body 60 is applied to the glass surface 3 of the window glass 1. The cleaning liquid is applied to the glass surface 3 by bringing it into contact and wiping as appropriate.

  At this time, in the window cleaning tool 10, as shown in FIG. 8, the cloth body 60 is attached to the window glass 1 by pressing the lower surface K of the wiper holder 51 (the lower surface of the base 53 a of the lower wall 53) against the glass surface 3. Since the surface can be brought into contact with the glass surface 3, the cleaning liquid can be efficiently applied to the glass surface 3.

  In this state, the tip 34b of the rubber blade 34 does not come into contact with the glass surface 3, and a sufficient gap is provided between the grip portion 22 of the grip 20 and the glass surface 3. The grip 20 can be prevented from hitting the glass surface 3 and damaging the window glass.

  Further, since the tip 34b of the rubber blade 34 does not contact the glass surface 3, only the cloth body 60 of the cleaning liquid applying body 50 can be brought into contact with the glass surface 3, and the cleaning liquid can be applied to the glass surface 3 with light resistance. can do. In this way, the same workability can be obtained as when a conventional cloth-only tool is used.

  Further, since the wiper holder 51 is open at both end surfaces in the length direction, the cloth body 60 is sandwiched between the upper and lower walls 52 and 53 of the wiper holder 51 of the cloth body 60 when replenished by immersing the cloth body 60 in the cleaning liquid. The upper half of the other side can be easily impregnated with the cleaning liquid. At the same time, the portion located in the opening 55 of the cloth body 60 is crushed and thinned by the tip portions 52b and 53b of the upper and lower walls 52 and 53, so that the cleaning liquid is immersed in the upper half of the cloth body 60. However, it will be smoothly supplied to the lower half part of the other side by capillarity, so that the wetness of the cloth body 60 can be improved and workability can be improved.

  Further, in the cleaning liquid application process, for example, the cleaning liquid is applied to the glass surface 3 by wiping while drawing an arc or by turning back while drawing a figure 8 (see FIG. 13 and FIG. 13). (See FIG. 14). At this time, the window wiping tool 10 has a structure in which both end surfaces in the length direction of the wiper holder 51 are cut so as to be inclined toward the base end side of the grip 20, so that the wiper It is possible to prevent the corners of the holder 51 from hitting the window frame or the like and interrupting the work or damaging the window frame.

  And if a washing | cleaning liquid is apply | coated to the glass surface 3 using the cloth body 60 as mentioned above, the wiping operation | work of a washing | cleaning liquid will be performed using the squeegee 30 this time. At this time, in the window wiping tool 10, as shown in FIG. 9, the grip 20 is slightly raised and pressed away from the window glass 1, so that the tip 34 b of the rubber blade 34 of the squeegee 30 is moved to the glass of the window glass 1. Since it can be brought into contact with the surface 3, it is attached to the window glass 1 by, for example, wiping while drawing an arc or cutting back while drawing a figure 8 like the cloth body 60 described above. The cleaning liquid can be wiped off (see FIGS. 13 and 14).

  Further, in this window utensil 10, since only the tip 34b of the rubber blade 34 can be brought into contact with the glass surface 3 without bringing the cloth body 60 into contact, the cleaning liquid can be smoothly wiped off from the glass surface 3 with light resistance. be able to. Further, as described above, even when wiping while drawing an arc or moving back so as to draw a figure 8, the cloth body 60 comes into contact with the portion wiped with the rubber blade 34 once, and the cleaning liquid again flows. It can prevent adhering and cleaning work does not become troublesome twice. In this way, workability similar to that obtained when a conventional squeegee-only tool is used can be obtained.

  As described above, in this window cleaning tool 10, only the cloth body 60 is in contact with the glass surface 3 (see FIG. 8), and only the tip 34b of the rubber blade 34 is in contact with the glass surface 3 (see FIG. 8). 9), the attitude of the gripper 20 can be changed by pressing the tip 53b of the lower wall 53 of the wiper holder 51 against the glass surface 3, as shown in FIG. 8 and the state shown in FIG. 9 can be arranged so that the cloth body 60 and the tip 34b of the rubber blade 34 are in contact with the glass surface 3 of the window glass 1 simultaneously. Accordingly, the cleaning liquid can be wiped from the glass surface 3 by the rubber blade 34 while the cleaning liquid is applied to the glass surface 3 by the cloth body 60. In this case, even if unfamiliar with window glass cleaning, the operation can be performed relatively easily.

  Moreover, in this window cleaning tool 10, since the washing | cleaning liquid provision body 50 is attached in parallel so that it may be located under the squeegee 30 via the spacer 40 in the grip 20 (refer FIG. 8), it is attached to the squeegee 30. On the other hand, the cleaning liquid applicator 50 can be shaken to some extent. That is, when gripping the grip portion 22 of the grip 20 and pressing the cloth body 60 against the glass surface 3 to bring it into surface contact, the wiper holder 51 can be swung to some extent with respect to the grip 20 by adjusting or operating the force. As described above, the squeegee 30 with respect to the glass surface 3 can be flexibly adapted to the subtle changes in the angle when wiping while drawing an arc or wrapping while turning a figure 8 as described above. It is possible to maintain the state in which the rubber blade 34 and the cloth body 60 of the cleaning liquid applying body 50 are simultaneously brought into contact with the glass surface.

  Particularly in this embodiment, since the spacer 40 is made of an elastic resin material such as rubber, the cleaning liquid applicator 50 can be more flexibly shaken with respect to the squeegee 30, thereby further increasing the degree of adhesion to the glass surface 3. And cleaning efficiency can be further improved. Further, even if the cleaning liquid application body 50 is pressed more strongly than necessary against the glass surface 3, the excessive pressing force from the grip 20 is absorbed and dispersed by the spacer 40 made of an elastic resin material, and the cleaning liquid application body 50. The cloth body 60 can be pressed against the glass surface 3 with an appropriate force, and both a light operational feeling and workability can be achieved.

  As described above, in this window cleaning tool 10, only the cloth body 60 is in contact with the glass surface 3 (see FIG. 8), only the tip 34b of the rubber blade 34 is in contact with the glass surface 3 (see FIG. 9), The cloth surface 60 and the tip 34b of the rubber blade 34 are both in contact with the glass surface 3 (see FIG. 10), and can be used by being divided into three states.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, the distance W between the tip 34b of the rubber blade 34 and the tip 53b of the wiper holder 51 is 10 to 35 mm, the plane H of the rubber blade 34, and the cloth body Since the angle [theta] 4 with the portion S that is in surface contact with the glass surface 3 of 60 is set to 22 to 38 [deg.], The switching between the three states is further facilitated, and the grip 20 is laid and only the cloth body 60 is placed on the window glass 1. When it is going to contact the glass surface 3, it can prevent more reliably that the grip 20 contacts the window glass 1, and can make it difficult to damage the window glass 1.

  At this time, since the gap G (see FIG. 8) between the glass surface 3 and the base end surface of the grip 22 is set to be 1.0 to 3.0 cm away from the glass surface 3, the grip 22 does not hit the glass surface 3 without difficulty. Since it can be gripped, the angle θ4 can be easily held at a predetermined angle, and workability can be improved.
