JP 2004-229872 A JP-A-6-285083 JP 2002-212817 A JP 2001-064811 A Registered Utility Model No. 3015653

Among the conventional devices shown in Patent Documents 1 to 5, those that suck in air and inflate the glove have a large casing and a heavy weight, and a complicated mounting operation, which is difficult to handle. Moreover, since the thing which expands a glove by an air blow produces turbulent airflow, it was not able to exhibit sufficient performance regarding automatic wearing of a glove.
Thus, as described above, the conventional glove wearing apparatus is difficult to handle, and has been specialized for use in a very limited field.
The present invention provides a glove automatic wearing device that is small and lightweight and easy to wear so that it can be used in various places such as on a desk or in a home.

  The present invention provides a negative pressure generating mechanism capable of generating a negative pressure, a generally thin box-like shape with one end in the longitudinal direction opened, and the negative pressure via a negative pressure supply hole formed in a part of a wall surface. An airtight mounting box connected to the generating mechanism and supplied with negative pressure, and a negative pressure that diffuses the negative pressure supplied from the negative pressure supply hole to the vicinity of the opening end on the inner surface of the wall surface of the mounting box. And a pressure diffusion mechanism.

  In the above configuration, the mounting box having airtightness has a substantially thin box shape, and one end in the longitudinal direction is open. A glove can be inserted from this opening from the front end side, and the end of the wrist can be folded back to wrap the opening end. In this state, when negative pressure is generated by the negative pressure generating mechanism, the mounting box is connected to the negative pressure generating mechanism through a negative pressure supply hole formed in a part of the wall surface. Negative pressure is supplied. Since the mounting box is airtight, the outside of the glove has a negative pressure and the inside has an atmospheric pressure. As a result, the gloves tend to expand inside the thin box-like mounting box.

  If the glove expands most around the middle of the mounting box, it can clog the mounting box. However, since a negative pressure diffusion mechanism is provided on the inner surface of the wall surface of the mounting box, the negative pressure supplied from the negative pressure supply hole is diffused to the vicinity of the opening end. Then, the glove is exposed to negative pressure on the entire outer surface from the tip on the back side of the mounting box to the wrist on the opening side of the mounting box, and expands as a whole.

  The negative pressure diffusion mechanism includes a groove formed on the inner surface of the wall surface of the mounting box, and a three-dimensional structure that is mounted on the inner peripheral surface of the mounting box and allows gas to pass at least in the longitudinal direction of the mounting box. The porous body mounted on the inner peripheral surface of the mounting box may be used.

  If a groove is formed on the inner surface of the wall surface of the mounting box, even when the glove expands and comes into close contact with the inner surface of the wall surface of the mounting box, it does not enter into the groove and close. For this reason, the negative pressure is diffused to the vicinity of the opening end of the mounting box through the groove. Similarly, even a three-dimensional structure that allows gas to pass at least in the longitudinal direction on the inner peripheral surface of the mounting box, the negative pressure can be diffused when the glove is inflated. Furthermore, even if the glove expands and adheres to the surface of the porous body, the gas can freely pass through the porous body and diffuse negative pressure.

  In addition, it is slidable by a predetermined amount relative to the mounting box, is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the mounting box near the opening, and is slid so as to push the mounting box to the side opposite to the opening. It is good also as a structure provided with the glove edge part extrusion site | part which can move to the said opening, contacting with the outer peripheral surface of the said mounting box sometimes.

  The glove end push-out portion is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the mounting box near the opening, and is slidable by a predetermined amount relative to the mounting box. The glove is almost entirely inserted into the opening, and the opening end is wrapped so that the end on the wrist side is folded. In this state, the end of the glove covers the outside of the open end. If you put your hand into the glove that is inflated from the opening of the mounting box, and push the hand further, you will push the mounting box to the side opposite to the opening, and if you slide in this way, the glove end extrusion site will be It moves to the opening while making contact with the outer peripheral surface. Since the wrist side end is covered with the outer peripheral surface of the opening end of the mounting box, the glove end pushing part hits the wrist side end, and if the pushing box is further pushed in, the glove end pushing part is further When the wrist end is pushed toward the opening and the opening end is reached, the wrist end is detached from the opening end.

  Here, the mounting box support member comprising a substantially cylindrical body that supports the mounting box so that the outer periphery of the mounting box is slidably movable by a predetermined amount is provided, and the end portion of the mounting box support member that is the cylindrical body is A glove end that is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the mounting box in the vicinity of the opening and is movable to the opening while in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the mounting box when the mounting box is slid so as to be pushed to the side opposite to the opening. You may make it comprise a partial extrusion site | part.

  Since the mounting box support member is formed as a substantially cylindrical body that supports the outer periphery of the mounting box, the mounting box is slidable by a predetermined amount inside the cylindrical body. And since the edge part made into the cylindrical body is in contact with the outer peripheral surface near the opening in the mounting box, when the mounting box is slid so as to be pushed to the side opposite to the opening, the outer peripheral surface of the opening end of the mounting box It hits the end of the wrist side that covers it. When the mounting box is further pushed in, the glove end pushing portion further pushes the wrist end toward the opening, and when the opening end is reached, the wrist end is detached from the opening end.

  Further, the mounting box includes a negative pressure release hole communicating with the outside, and is slidable by a predetermined amount relative to the mounting box, and the negative pressure when the mounting box is in the first position. A negative pressure release hole that closes the negative pressure release hole facing the release hole and opens the negative pressure release hole when the mounting box slides to a position shifted from the first position. It is good also as a structure provided with a pressure release valve mechanism.

  The negative pressure release valve mechanism is slidable by a predetermined amount relative to the mounting box.When the mounting box is in the first position, the negative pressure release hole faces the negative pressure release hole of the mounting box. Block. In this state, if negative pressure is supplied into the mounting box on which the gloves are mounted, the gloves expand in the mounting box. After inserting the hand into the inflated glove, when the mounting box is slid to a position shifted from the first position, the negative pressure release valve mechanism is released from the negative pressure release hole and opens the negative pressure release hole. Then, since the negative pressure is released through the negative pressure release hole, the glove returns from the expanded state to the normal contracted state. As a result, the glove is fitted to the hand.

  Here, a mounting box supporting member that supports the mounting box so as to be slidable by a predetermined amount is provided, and the negative pressure release valve mechanism intersects with the formation position of the negative pressure release hole on the outer surface of the mounting box. In this manner, the negative pressure release hole is formed at a facing position between the rotary arm supported to be pivotable within a predetermined angle range and the negative pressure release hole when the rotary arm intersects the negative pressure release hole. A convex portion that can be closed, and one end fixed to the mounting box support member, and a fixed piece that engages with the rotating arm at the other end, when the mounting box slides by a predetermined amount, The rotary arm engaged with the fixed piece is rotationally driven in a predetermined range, and the convex portion of the rotary arm faces the negative pressure release hole when the mounting box is in the first position. Where the mounting box is displaced from the first position. The convex portion of the rotary arm when the slide may be configured to disengage from the negative pressure releasing hole.

  The mounting box support member supports the mounting box so as to be slidable by a predetermined amount. The rotary arm of the negative pressure release valve mechanism can be pivoted within a predetermined angle range so as to intersect the formation position of the negative pressure release hole on the outer surface of the mounting box. The rotary arm is formed at a position facing the negative pressure release hole when it intersects the negative pressure release hole, and the negative pressure release hole can be closed. One end of the fixed piece is fixed to the mounting box support member. When the mounting box is slid with respect to the mounting box support member, the other end engaged with the rotary arm is moved relative to the rotary arm. Generate driving force. That is, when the mounting box slides by a predetermined amount, the rotating arm engaged with the fixed piece is driven to rotate within a predetermined range. When the mounting box is in the first position, the convex portion of the rotating arm faces the negative pressure release hole, and the negative pressure release hole is closed, so the negative pressure in the mounting box is not released. However, when the mounting box is slid and moved to a position shifted from the first position, the rotating arm is driven to rotate, so that the convex portion is removed from the negative pressure release hole. At this point, the negative pressure release hole is opened, the interior of the mounting box communicates with the atmosphere, and the negative pressure is released.

  The mounting box support member further includes: a mounting box support member that supports the mounting box; and a housing that accommodates the negative pressure generating mechanism, and a support case that holds the mounting box support member on both outer surfaces. Is supported rotatably about a horizontal axis formed on the side wall of the support case, and the other wall with the thin wall side of the mounting box in a thin box as the axis. You may comprise so that the wall surface side may be supported rotatably in the direction which approaches or leaves | separates from the said side wall.

  The support case is a housing that houses the negative pressure generating mechanism, and holds the mounting box support members on both outer side surfaces. Here, the mounting box is supported via a mounting box support member. The mounting box support member can rotate with respect to the side wall of the support case around the horizontal axis, and the angle of the mounting box with respect to the horizontal direction can be adjusted. Further, the mounting box having a thin box shape can take a form of being compact or widening because the other wall surface side is close to or away from the side wall with the one wall surface side as an axis.

ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, it becomes possible to make the mounting | wearing box holding a glove into a thin box shape, and can provide the glove automatic mounting | wearing apparatus which is small and lightweight, and is easy to mount | wear.
Because it is small and lightweight, it can be used in various places such as on a desk or in the home. In addition, since the structure is simple and easy to install, it is hard to break down and has high safety during use. Furthermore, since there is no generation of turbulent airflow by air blow, it can be used for a wide range of gloves such as a relatively loose glove with a low feeling of pressure.

(First embodiment)
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. Of course, the embodiments described below are merely illustrative of the present invention.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the automatic glove wearing apparatus 10 as seen from the left on the front side, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the automatic glove wearing apparatus 10 as seen from the left on the back.
The automatic glove wearing device 10 includes a support case 20, a mounting box 30, and a mounting box support member 40.

The support case 20 has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape that is vertically long and has a depth direction longer than that of the width direction. However, the corner portion that connects the upper surface to the front surface is an inclined surface 21, and the side view is pentagonal. . Mounting boxes 30 are mounted on both side surfaces of the support case 20 via mounting box support members 40, respectively. The support case 20 has sufficient strength to support the mounting box 30 and the mounting box support member 40, and has a stand 22 that is wide in the front-rear and left-right directions at the bottom to ensure more stability. Yes.
The inside of the support case 20 is generally hollow, and a vacuum pump 23 that constitutes a part of the negative pressure generating mechanism is accommodated therein, and the inclined surface 21 is for operating the vacuum pump 23. A vacuum pump switch 24 is provided.
The vacuum pump 23 generates a negative pressure. The vacuum pump 23 is connected to a power source via a power cable 25 and can be switched between an operating state and a stopped state by operating the vacuum pump switch 24. The vacuum pump 23 may have any form as long as it can generate a negative pressure, and various existing types can be used.

  The vacuum pump switch 24 is a toggle switch, and the vacuum pump 23 is activated when the switch is turned on, and the vacuum pump 23 is stopped when the switch is turned off. In addition to this, a push button type switch may be provided, which is turned on when it is pushed once, provided with a timer for the second time, and once pushed, the vacuum pump 23 may be operated for a predetermined time.

  The vacuum pump 23 includes an intake port and an exhaust port (not shown), and one end of a negative pressure hose 26 is connected to the intake port. The other end of the negative pressure hose 26 is led out from the back surface of the support case 20 to the outside. In the present embodiment, since there are two mounting boxes 30, the negative pressure hose 26 is divided into two forks. If the vacuum pump 23 has two intake ports, two negative pressure hoses 26 may be used. In the present embodiment, the vacuum pump 23, the vacuum pump switch 24, and the negative pressure hose 26 constitute a negative pressure generating mechanism in the present invention.

The mounting box 30 is made of a resin such as polypropylene. Further, the mounting box 30 has a substantially rectangular shape with a thickness smaller than the height and width when the state shown in FIG. Except for the opening on the upper surface, the peripheral wall is airtight by resin molding.
3 is a cross-sectional view of the mounting box 30 cut at a position corresponding to AA in FIG.
As shown in the figure, when viewed from the side, the mounting box 30 has a constant outer shape from the top to the center in the height direction, but the thickness gradually decreases slightly from the bottom to the bottom. As a result, it is a substantially rectangular parallelepiped having a pentagonal cross-sectional shape in a side view. The size of the cavity inside the mounting box 30 is set to a size that is slightly smaller than the size of the expanded gloves. Here, the part where the thickness of the upper side is constant is the part where the back of the glove and the palm of the hand are inserted, and the part where the thickness of the lower side is gradually reduced is the part where the part of the finger of the glove is inserted It is. And when expanding the glove to make it easier to put in the hand, not only the back of the hand and the palm of the hand will expand unnecessarily, but will expand moderately and the tip of the finger will also expand appropriately to insert the hand The internal shape is assumed to be easy.
The mounting box 30 has a negative pressure inlet 31 formed on the bottom surface having the smallest area, and an opening 32 on the top surface facing the mounting box 30. In this embodiment, since the mounting boxes 30 are held one by one on both sides of the support case 20, two mounting boxes 30 are provided, and the negative pressure intakes 31 of the two mounting boxes 30 are respectively Each of the two negative pressure hoses 26 extending from the intake port of the vacuum pump 23 is hermetically connected. In order to make an airtight connection, a fitting for mounting is formed by forming a male screw on the outer peripheral surface while forming a cylindrical shape at the tip of the negative pressure hose 26, and the male screw of the fitting is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the negative pressure inlet 31. It is screwed onto the formed female screw.
In the present embodiment, the negative pressure inlet 31 is disposed on the bottom surface of the mounting box 30, but it is not necessarily the bottom surface. A negative pressure diffusion mechanism, which will be described later, is provided inside the mounting box 30 so that it can be formed almost anywhere.

4 is a cross-sectional view when the mounting box 30 is cut at a position corresponding to BB in FIG.
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a groove having a certain depth is formed on the inner peripheral wall surface of the mounting box 30. As will be described later, this groove serves as an air (negative pressure) passage and is referred to as an air groove 33. The air groove 33 is provided on all four wall surfaces of the inner wall of the mounting box 30. The air groove 33 is close to the vertical groove air groove 33a formed by only the vertical groove on the side close to the negative pressure inlet 31 from the center to the back in the height direction, and close to the opening 32 from the center in the height direction. On the side, it is constituted by a lattice air groove 33b formed so that the longitudinal groove and the transverse groove intersect with each other in a lattice shape. That is, the configuration is such that two types of groove shapes are switched in the middle.
The vertical groove of the lattice air groove 33b is not formed to the upper end of the opening 32, but is formed so as to be cut from the front of the opening 32 while being formed from below to above. Further, all the grooves of all the lattice air grooves 33 b are connected to the negative pressure intake port 31.
If the glove is inflated in the mounting box 30 and adheres to the entire inner peripheral surface of the mounting box 30 at a certain height position, the inside of the mounting box 30 is partitioned vertically with the height position as a partition. As a result, negative pressure is biased. The air groove 33 allows the negative pressure supplied from the negative pressure inlet 31 to be supplied to the entire area of the mounting box 30 even if the gloves are in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the mounting box 30. This corresponds to the negative pressure diffusion mechanism in the present invention. In this sense, the longitudinal groove contributes to the diffusion of negative pressure from the bottom side to the upper end. On the other hand, the lateral groove when the lattice shape is used contributes as an anti-slip in the vertical direction when the glove expands and bites.

  The mounting box 30 is supported by a mounting box support member 40 formed of a resin such as polypropylene. The mounting box support member 40 is formed as a cylindrical body having a rectangular parallelepiped appearance, and penetrates in the vertical direction in the vertical direction in the posture shown in FIG. The overall height of the mounting box support member 40 is set slightly lower than the height from the upper end of the mounting box 30 to the portion where the thickness is switched. Further, the inner dimension of the mounting box support member 40 as a cylindrical body is slightly larger than the outer dimension of the mounting box 30, and the mounting box 30 is inserted into the mounting box support member 40 to be slidable.

FIG. 5A is a cross-sectional view of the mounting box 30 and the mounting box support member 40 cut at a position corresponding to CC in FIG. In a state where the mounting box 30 is inserted into the mounting box support member 40, the inner peripheral surface of the mounting box support member 40 is in sliding contact with the outer peripheral surface of the mounting box 30 so that a large gap is not generated. In particular, the gap is sufficiently small compared to the thickness of the end of the glove.
FIG. 5B is a cross-sectional view of the modified example of the mounting box 30 and the mounting box support member 40 taken at a position corresponding to CC in FIG. In this modified example, three ridges 41 are formed on each of two opposing surfaces on the wide side on the inner side of the mounting box support member 40, and on the outer side of the mounting box 30, 2 Three grooves 34 corresponding to the position and size of the ridges 41 are formed on each surface. The ridges 41 and the grooves 34 are formed in parallel with the vertical direction in FIG. 1, that is, the direction in which the mounting box 30 and the mounting box support member 40 can slide relative to each other.
Thereby, when the mounting box 30 is inserted inside the mounting box support member 40, the concave groove 34 is inserted into the ridge 41. The recessed groove 34 does not need to be installed over the entire length of the mounting box 30 and may be formed at least from the upper end of the mounting box 30 to a position overlapping the mounting box support member 40. Further, the ridge 41 does not need to be installed over the entire height of the mounting box support member 40. With the mounting box 30 inserted inside the mounting box support member 40, the upper end of the mounting box support member 40 is inserted into the concave groove 34. It is only necessary to form as long as it can enter.
As will be described later, the mounting box 30 is inserted from the lower side to the upper side of the mounting box support member 40 to a predetermined position beyond the upper end position of the mounting box support member 40. As will be described later, the mounting box 30 is slid so as to be pushed into the mounting box support member 40. At this time, the ridge 41 can reach the upper end of the concave groove 34 of the mounting box 30. In FIG. 5, the gap between the mounting box 30 and the mounting box support member 40 and the depth of the groove are shown to be large in order to clarify the relationship between the ridges 41 and the concave grooves 34. Actually, the gap between the two is closer, and the height of the ridge 41 and the depth of the groove 34 may be small. Further, the number of the ridges 41 and the groove 34 is not limited to three.

FIG. 6 is a side view of the glove automatic wearing apparatus 10.
In the figure, the broken lines simply represent cavities inside the mounting box 30 and the mounting box support member 40. The mounting box 30 is inserted inside the mounting box support member 40, and is attached with the opening 32 side of the mounting box 30 protruding above the mounting box support member 40 by about 1 to 2 cm as an initial state.
A spring holding portion 42 that protrudes toward the front side and can hold one end of the spring 50 is formed at a position in the center in the width direction of the front side surface of the mounting box support member 40. In addition, a spring holding portion 35 is formed at the center of the front surface of the mounting box 30 in the width direction so as to protrude to the front side and hold the other end of the spring 50. Since the spring holding part 35 also serves as an obstacle for inserting the mounting box 30 into the mounting box support member 40 to the initial position and stopping it, the spring holding part with respect to the lower end of the mounting box support member 40 in the initial state. It is formed at a height position such that the upper end of 35 is in contact.
One end of the spring 50 is locked to the spring holding portion 42 and the other end is locked to the spring holding portion 35 to generate contraction force even in the initial state described above. As a result, the mounting box 30 is normally held by the mounting box support member 40 at the initial position, and the mounting box 30 is pushed downward (D1 direction) against the mounting box support member 40 against the spring 50. The spring 50 exhibits a reaction force that pushes the mounting box 30 back toward the initial state.

FIG. 7 is a front view of the mounting box 30, and FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of the mounting box 30 cut at a position corresponding to DD in FIG.
A circular negative pressure release hole 36 penetrating the wall surface is formed below the front side of the mounting box 30. A rotating arm 37 is provided so as to intersect with the position where the negative pressure releasing hole 36 is formed, and the left end of the rotating arm 37 is at the same height as the negative pressure releasing hole 36 and is front of the mounting box 30 by the shaft 37a. It is rotatably supported in a plane parallel to the side surface. A convex portion 37 b made of an elastic body having a spherical surface is held at a position facing the negative pressure release hole 36 at a position from the right end of the rotating arm 37. When the rotary arm 37 rotates with the shaft 37a as a fulcrum, the turning track of the convex portion 37b intersects the negative pressure release hole 36, and the convex portion 37b releases the negative pressure due to the flexibility of the rotary arm 37 itself. It is in a state of being pressed slightly toward the hole 36. Since the convex portion 37b is formed in a spherical shape and has elasticity, when the convex portion 37b faces the circular negative pressure release hole 36, the convex portion 37b comes into close contact with the opening edge to ensure airtightness. The position of the rotating arm at this time is referred to as a first position. On the other hand, if the rotary arm 37 rotates and deviates from the first position, the convex portion 37b also deviates from the negative pressure release hole 36, and the negative pressure release hole 36 is released. A columnar projection 37c is formed on the front side of the rotating arm 37 from the right end, that is, on the back side of the portion where the convex portion 37b is mounted.

9 is a front view of the mounting box support member 40, and FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view of the mounting box support member 40 cut at a position corresponding to EE in FIG.
A plate-like fixing piece 43 is held at a position on the front surface of the mounting box support member 40 and above the protrusion 37c of the rotating arm 37 described above. The upper end of the fixed piece 43 is fixed to the mounting box support member 40, and the other end is arranged so as to protrude downward. A cylindrical holding portion 43 a is held on the side of the other end of the fixed piece 43 in contact with the mounting box support member 40. The depth of the cylindrical portion of the holding portion 43a is substantially the same as the height of the protrusion 37c, and the inner diameter of the cylindrical portion of the holding portion 43a is set larger than the outer diameter of the protrusion 37c. Here, the mounting position of the holding portion 43a is a position where the holding portion 43a faces the protrusion 37c of the rotating arm when the mounting box 30 is inserted into the mounting box support member 40 to be in the initial position. It is. When the mounting box 30 is mounted on the mounting box support member 40, the fixing piece 43 is bent to retract the holding portion 43a from the projection 37c, and the deflection of the fixing piece 43 is reduced when the initial position is reached. When returned, the holding portion 43a covers the protrusion 37c, and both are locked.

Since the holding portion 43a is held by the mounting box support member 40 and the projection 37c is supported by the mounting box 30 via the rotating arm 37, the mounting box 30 is pushed into the mounting box support member 40 and relatively When moved, the protrusion 37c remains engaged with the holding portion 43a, so that the rotating arm 37 moves with the mounting box 30 on the shaft 37a side, but the holding portion 43a side cannot move in the height direction. As a result, the rotary arm 37 is driven to rotate. When the rotary arm 37 is driven to rotate, the convex portion 37 b facing the negative pressure release hole 36 is detached from the negative pressure release hole 36. Since the protrusion 37c supported by the rotating arm 37 moves while drawing an arc, and the holding portion 43a is fixed and stopped, the holding portion 43a is allowed to move while holding the locked state of both. The inner diameter is slightly larger than the outer shape of the protrusion 37c.
In this embodiment, the negative pressure release hole 36, the rotary arm 37 including the shaft 37a, the convex portion 37b, and the projection 37c, and the fixed piece 43 including the holding portion 43a constitute a negative pressure release valve mechanism. ing.

FIG. 11 is an exploded perspective view showing a connection relationship between the rotation mechanism 60 and the opening / closing mechanism 70 and the mounting box support member 40. The mounting box support member 40 is attached to the support case 20 via a rotation mechanism 60 and an opening / closing mechanism 70.
The rotation mechanism 60 includes a first plate 61 fixed to the support case 20 side, and a rotating body 62 fixed to the mounting box support member 40 side via an opening / closing mechanism 70. The rotating body 62 includes a shaft 62a oriented in the horizontal direction with respect to the side wall of the support case 20, and a second plate 62b that is a circular plate member fixed near the center of the shaft 62a. Four ball plungers 62c facing the support case 20 are attached to the second plate 62b at equal intervals. The ball plunger 62c normally protrudes as a state in which the ball at the tip is pushed outward by the expansion force of the spring. However, when a force of a certain level or more is applied to the tip, the spring is compressed and the ball is pushed inward. It has become.
The first plate 61 is a circular plate-like member having substantially the same diameter as the second plate 62b, and a through hole 61a is formed at the center for inserting and holding the shaft 62a rotatably. In addition, when the second plate 62c is overlapped with the first plate 61 and united, there are four positions where the ball at the tip of the ball plunger 62c can be locked at a position facing the ball plunger 62c. An angle adjusting hole 61b is formed.

  With the first plate 61 fixed to the support case 20 in advance, the shaft 62a of the rotating body 62 is inserted into the through hole 61a of the first plate 61 until the first plate 61 contacts the second plate 62b. Thus, the rotation mechanism 60 is attached to the support case 20. The first plate 61 and the second plate 62b are supported so as to be rotatable with respect to each other via a shaft 62a while being in close contact with each other. At this time, the ball at the tip of the ball plunger 62c is inserted into the angle adjustment hole 61b, whereby the rotating body 62 is fixed to the plate 61 at the rotation angle position. However, if a force is applied to rotate the rotating body 62 with respect to the support case 20 (D2 direction) with a force exceeding the expansion force of the spring of the ball plunger 62c, the ball at the tip of the ball plunger 62c is moved to the angle adjusting hole. The rotator 62 rotates with respect to the first plate 61 when it comes off the 61b. When the ball plunger 62c reaches the position that matches the angle adjustment hole 61b again, the ball at the tip is inserted into the angle adjustment hole 61b by the spring force of the ball plunger 62c, so that the rotating body 62 and the first plate 61 becomes a fixed state again. Since the rotator 62 is fixed to the mounting box support member 40 and the plate 61 is fixed to the support case 20, the rotator 62 is rotated with respect to the plate 61, whereby the axis in the horizontal direction with respect to the support case 20. The mounting box support member 40 can be rotated about the rotation axis.

The opening / closing mechanism 70 includes a clamp mechanism 71, an arm 72, and a fixing portion 73, and is attached between the rotation mechanism 60 and the mounting box support member 40. First, the opening / closing mechanism 70 is fixed to the end portion on the opposite side of the support case 20 with respect to the shaft 62 a of the rotation mechanism 62 via the arm 72. The arm 72 is rotatably supported by the fixing portion 73 via the clamp mechanism 71, and the fixing portion 73 is fixed to the mounting box support member 40.
The fixing portion 73 has a shape in which the arm 72 is sandwiched between the two protrusions 73a, 73a from both the upper and lower directions, and through holes 73b, 72a, 73b that penetrate in the vertical direction with the arm 72 sandwiched are formed. The arm 72 can rotate without detaching from the fixed portion 73 by the main body shaft portion 71b of the clamp mechanism 71 passing through the through holes 73b, 72a, 73b. Further, in the clamp mechanism 71, the interval between the disc springs 71c provided at both ends of the main body shaft portion 71b is widened or narrowed by rotating a lever 71a that is rotatably attached at one end relative to the upper end. be able to.
Accordingly, the arm 72 is inserted between the two protrusions 73a and 73a of the fixing portion 73, and the disc springs 71c of the clamping mechanism 71 are arranged above and below the fixing portion 73. Thereafter, the main body shaft portion 71b of the clamping mechanism 71 is moved. The arm 72 and the fixing portion 73 are inserted into the through holes 73b, 72a, 73b. And it fixes with the volt | bolt from the downward direction of the lower disk spring 71c. In this state, when the lever 71a is pushed down in the horizontal direction, the distance between the upper and lower disc springs 71c is slightly narrowed, and the fixing portion 73 firmly fixes the arm 72 from above and below. On the contrary, when the lever 71a is pushed up in the vertical direction, the distance between the upper and lower disc springs 71c is widened, and the force that the fixing portion 73 pinches the arm 72 is released, so that the fixation is released. In a state in which the fixation is released, when a force in a direction (D3 direction) with the main body shaft portion 71b of the clamp mechanism 71 as a rotation axis is applied to the arm 72, the arm 72 is relatively relative to the fixing portion 73. Rotate to. Of course, even when a force is applied to the fixing portion 73, the fixing portion 73 rotates relative to the arm 72 with the main body shaft portion 71 b as the rotation axis.
The fixing portion 73 is fixed to the outside of one wall surface on the thin side of the mounting box support member 40. Accordingly, the side of the other wall surface is supported so as to be rotatable in a direction approaching or separating from the side wall of the support case 20 with the side on which the fixing portion 73 is fixed as an axis.
Similarly, since the mounting box support member 40 is held by the support case 20 via the rotation mechanism 60, the mounting box support member 40 has a horizontal axis formed on the side wall of the support case 20. It will be supported rotatably at the center.

Next, a method of using the automatic glove wearing device 10 will be described.
FIG. 12 is a cross-sectional view showing a state where the glove 80 is attached to the attachment box 30.
The user operates the vacuum pump switch 24 to operate the vacuum pump 23. Since the suction port of the vacuum pump 23 is connected to the negative pressure inlet 31 of the mounting box 30 via the negative pressure hose 26, negative pressure is introduced into the mounting box 30 from the negative pressure inlet 31. .
The glove 80 is inserted into the mounting box 30 from the opening 32 side with the fingertip side down. Since the airflow is directed from the opening 32 toward the negative pressure inlet 31, the fingertips of the gloves 80 are easily aligned.
At this time, the mounting box 30 is held at the initial position with respect to the mounting box support member 40. That is, the upper end side of the mounting box 30 protrudes 1 to 2 cm from the upper end of the mounting box support member 40. With the fingertip side of the glove 80 dropped into the mounting box 30 to some extent, the wrist-side end 80 a of the glove 80 is folded outward at the upper end of the opening 32 of the mounting box 30. When folded back, the glove 80 is fixed to the mounting box 30 by its own tension, and the glove 80 covers the upper edge of the opening 32 of the mounting box 30 to seal the inside of the mounting box 30. .

When negative pressure is taken in from the negative pressure inlet 31 into the sealed mounting box 30 with the glove 80 being worn, the glove 80 has a negative pressure inside the mounting box 30 and a large pressure outside the mounting box 30. Since it is separated from the atmospheric pressure, the glove 80 expands due to a difference in internal and external atmospheric pressure. At this time, the glove 80 is pulled from the opening 32 side toward the negative pressure inlet 31 side as a whole.
When the mounting box 30 is not a thin box, if a negative pressure is applied to the outer side of the glove 80 and the inner side is set to atmospheric pressure, a portion corresponding to the palm and back of the hand will swell larger than the fingertip. An air groove 33 is formed on the inner wall of the mounting box 30, but an air groove 33 a having only a longitudinal groove is formed on the inner side, and an air groove having a lateral groove in addition to the longitudinal groove from the middle to the opening 32 side. 33b is adopted. When the glove 80 is inflated in the mounting box 30, a portion corresponding to the palm and back of the hand, which tends to be larger than the fingertip, is pressed against the air groove 33b provided with a lateral groove. When the glove 80 is pressed against the lateral groove, the glove 80 bites into the corner of the groove, so that the force to pull the glove 80 to the back side can be resisted. If there is no such a lateral groove, the glove 80 may be pulled into the inside of the mounting box 30 while being inflated.
For this reason, the shape of the air groove 33 is not limited to the combination of the vertical groove and the horizontal groove, and various shapes can be adopted as long as the air groove 33 can resist the pulling direction by biting into the glove 80. For example, the air groove 33 can be formed by combining oblique grooves and circular grooves.

  Further, if there is no longitudinal groove of the air groove 33, the glove 80 may expand around the palm and back of the hand, and the inside of the mounting box 30 may be hermetically divided between the fingertip side and the wrist side. Then, after that, the negative pressure will be concentrated only on the fingertip. However, since there is a longitudinal groove of the air groove 33, even if the glove 80 expands and sticks to the surface of the mounting box 30, it cannot be stuck completely into the longitudinal groove. A negative pressure can be applied uniformly in the mounting box 30. By applying a negative pressure by the air groove 33, the glove 80 can be inflated with a small negative pressure as compared with the case where a negative pressure is applied to the entire mounting box 30, and the negative pressure is also applied to the whole in a short time. Can act. In addition, since the vertical groove of the air groove 33b is not provided to the upper end of the opening part 32, air can be prevented from leaking from the opening part 32 after the glove 80 is inserted.

  The reason why the mounting box 30 is a thin box is that it is not always easy to insert a hand if the glove 80 expands like a balloon when the glove 80 expands. It is easier to insert a hand if it is inflated in a flat shape as a glove. For this reason, in order to regulate the spread of the thickness direction of the hand, the mounting box 30 has a thin box shape. Further, the thickness of the fingertip side is gradually narrowed because the fingertip side does not need to be inflated as in the palm of the hand. By eliminating the need to generate the device, it is possible to contribute to downsizing of the device.

When the fingertip, the palm, and the back of the hand of the glove 80 are expanded outward by the action of the negative pressure, the user inserts the hand into the glove 80 attached to the attachment box 30. Since the gloves 80 are sufficiently inflated, a hand can be easily inserted into the gloves 80.
After the glove 80 is attached to the hand, when the user further inserts the hand into the back, the attachment box 30 is pushed by the force of inserting the hand, and the attachment box 30 is directed downward with respect to the support cover 40 (D4 in FIG. 12). Slide in the direction of

The negative pressure release valve mechanism operates in conjunction with the sliding movement of the mounting box 30 with respect to the mounting box support member 40. The negative pressure release valve mechanism is realized by a negative pressure release hole 36 provided on the back surface of the mounting box 30, a rotating arm 37, and a fixed piece 43 to which the mounting box support member 40 is fixed.
FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining the operation of the negative pressure release valve mechanism. This figure is a view from the front of the mounting box 30 inserted into the mounting box support member 40 and mounted. In normal time (initial state) before sliding, the negative pressure release hole 36 (one-dot chain line) provided on the front surface of the mounting box 30 is attached to the mounting box 30 as shown in (a) on the left side. The arm 37 is closed by a convex portion 37b (two-dot chain line).
However, when the mounting box 30 slides downward with respect to the mounting box support member 40, the negative pressure release hole 36 moves downward in synchronization with the mounting box 30, but the convex portion 37b of the rotating arm 37 It is held at substantially the same position by the fixed piece 43 of the mounting box support member 40. During this time, the rotating arm 37 supported by the mounting box 30 by the shaft 37a moves downward by the same distance as the sliding movement of the mounting box 30, and the rotating arm 37 relatively rotates. That is, the negative pressure release hole 36 of the mounting box 30 moves downward by the same distance as the slide movement, and the convex portion 37b that closes this is almost stopped. Therefore, as shown in FIG. The overlap between 37b and the negative pressure release hole 36 is eliminated, and the negative pressure in the mounting box 30 is released to the outside.
Since the inner diameter of the projection 37c is smaller than the outer diameter of the holding portion 43a, when the shaft 37a slides downward, the rotary arm 37 is rotated about the shaft 37a while maintaining the distance between the shaft 37a and the projection 37c. Can be made. In the present embodiment, the holding portion 43a has a cylindrical shape, but any shape may be adopted as long as the shape can hold the protrusion 37c. For example, it is also possible to adopt a structure in which two horizontal members are projected like a clog foot and the projection 37c is sandwiched from above and below by the two members.

When the negative pressure in the mounting box 30 is released to the outside, the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the glove 80 disappears, and the glove 80 comes into close contact with the hand.
Further, as the mounting box 30 slides, the upper end of the mounting box support member 40 approaches the opening 32 while being in sliding contact with the outer peripheral surface of the mounting box 30. Since the wrist side end portion 80a of the glove 80 is folded around the opening 32, the wrist side end portion 80a is pushed upward by the upper end of the mounting box support member 40. When the upper end of the mounting box support member 40 reaches the position of the upper end of the mounting box 30 or just before that, the wrist side end portion 80a of the glove 80 is inevitably detached from the mounting box 30. Therefore, it is not necessary for the user to remove the wrist end 80 a of the glove 80 from the mounting box 30.

  By the way, if the wrist side end portion 80a is thin, the upper end of the mounting box support member 40 may not be pushed upward and may enter between the mounting box 30 and the mounting box support member 40. However, when the concave groove 34 and the ridge 41 are formed, the wrist side end portion 80 a crosses the concave groove 34 when the wrist side end portion 80 a of the glove 80 is in close contact with the periphery of the opening 32. It becomes a state. Therefore, when the mounting box support member 40 moves upward relative to the mounting box 30 in a state in which the ridge 41 is in the groove 34, the ridge 41 and the wrist side end portion 80a intersect vertically and horizontally. Therefore, it can be reliably pushed upward. Of course, there is also an effect that the mounting box 30 can be smoothly slid in the parallel direction with respect to the mounting box support member 40 by the action of the ridges 41 and the concave grooves 34.

In this state, the user pulls out his hand from the mounting box 30. When the negative pressure is generated in the mounting box 30, the glove 80 is sucked against the inner wall of the mounting box 30, and thus there is a possibility that the user cannot pull out the hand well with the glove 80 mounted. If the vacuum pump switch 24 is operated, the negative pressure state can be eliminated. However, when both hands are attached at the same time, the operation cannot be performed unless at least the hand is removed. For this reason, the negative pressure release valve mechanism automatically cancels the negative pressure state and allows the user to easily remove the hand from the mounting box 30. At the same time, the wrist side end 80a of the glove 80 is also detached, so that it is very easy to pull out the hand.
When the hand is pulled out, the mounting box 30 automatically returns to the normal initial position by the elastic force of the spring 50. After pulling out the hand from the mounting box 30, the user operates the vacuum pump switch 24 to stop the operation of the vacuum pump 23.

  In the description so far, for the convenience of explanation, it has been assumed that a hand is inserted into the mounting box 30 from directly above in the vertical direction. However, it may be more convenient to change the angle of the mounting box 30 depending on the installation location of the apparatus and the height of the user. Therefore, the mounting box 30 can be freely rotated with respect to the support case 20 by the rotation mechanism 60.

FIG. 14 is a side view showing the operation of rotating the mounting box 30 forward by 90 °. By using the rotation mechanism 60, the mounting box 30 can be rotated as shown in FIG. Since the mounting box 30 is inserted into the mounting box support member 40, changing the angle of the mounting box support member 40 with respect to the support case 20 changes the angle of the mounting box 30 with respect to the support case 20.
The rotating body 62 is fixed to the mounting box support member 40 via the opening / closing mechanism 70, and the first plate 61 is fixed to the support case 20. The balls at the tips of the four ball plungers 62c of the rotating body 62 are pushed into the four angle adjusting holes 61b of the plate 61 by the tension of the spring. Therefore, the rotator 62 can be fixed to the plate 61 at every constant angle, and the angle between the mounting box support member 40 and the support case 20 can be kept constant.
However, when a force is applied to the mounting box support member 40 or the mounting box 30 in the direction D2 in FIG. 11 in this state, the ball plunger 62c has a ball force when the force exceeds the tension of the spring in the ball plunger 62c. Comes out of the angle adjustment hole 61b, and the rotating body 62 rotates in the direction D2 together with the mounting box support member 40. When the ball plunger 62c reaches the position that again matches the angle adjustment hole 61b, the ball of the ball plunger 62c is inserted into the angle adjustment hole 61b and again becomes fixed.

  Thus, by applying a rotational force to the mounting box support member 40 or the mounting box 30, the angle of the mounting box 30 can be easily changed, and the position is maintained unless a certain force is applied. can do. In this embodiment, the number of ball plungers 61c and the angle adjustment holes 61b is four, so the angle adjustment is every 90 °. However, the number of ball plungers 61c and the angle adjustment holes 61b is increased. As a result, a finer angle adjustment is possible.

  The description so far has been based on the premise that the two mounting boxes 30 are arranged in a straight line with the support case 20 in between. However, it may be more convenient to fold the mounting box 30 toward the support case 20 when using or storing the apparatus. Therefore, the mounting box 30 can be freely opened and closed with respect to the support case 20 by the opening / closing mechanism 70.

  FIG. 15 is a side view showing the operation of folding the mounting box 30 forward. By using the opening / closing mechanism 70, an opening / closing movement of the mounting box 30 as shown in FIG. The opening / closing movement is a movement in which the thin wall side of the mounting box 30 is rotated in a direction in which the thin wall side is closer to or away from the side wall of the support case 20 with the thin wall side being the axis. Pointing. Since the mounting box 30 is inserted into the mounting box support member 40, the mounting box 30 is opened and closed with respect to the support case 20 by opening and closing the mounting box support member 40 with respect to the support case 20. .

Normally, the lever 71a of the clamp mechanism 71 is pushed down in the horizontal direction. In this state, the fixing portion 73 tightens the arm 72 by the disc springs 71c provided at both ends of the main body shaft portion 71b. Yes. However, when the lever 71 a is pushed up in the vertical direction, the tightening by the upper and lower disc springs 71 c is released, and the arm 72 is released from the tightening by the fixing portion 73. When a force in the opening / closing direction is applied to the mounting box support member 40 or the mounting box 30 in this state, the mounting box support member 40 rotates with the main body shaft portion 71b as an axis together with the fixing portion 73. When the lever 71a is pushed down in the horizontal direction again when it is opened and closed to the desired angle, the arm 72 is fixed again by the fixing portion 73.
Note that the opening and closing of the mounting box 30 is not limited to the two-stage opening and closing of the open state and the closed state, and the open / close state can be fixed at a desired position according to the use state. Further, the clamping mechanism 71 is not limited to the form in which the disc springs 71c are provided at both ends, and the opening / closing mechanism 70 is not limited to the clamping mechanism 71 as long as the opening / closing mechanism can be controlled.

  By configuring the rotation mechanism 60 and the opening / closing mechanism 70 as independent mechanisms, the rotational motion and the opening / closing motion can act separately. Therefore, for example, as shown in FIG. 16, the two mechanisms can be used in any combination such that the mounting box 30 is further folded downward with the mounting box 30 rotated 90 ° forward. Not limited to this example, it is possible to combine the rotational motion and the opening / closing motion at various positions.

(Second embodiment)
FIG. 17 is a cross-sectional view when the mounting box 130 according to the second embodiment is cut at the same position as in FIG. 3. The mounting box 130 uses a sponge 133 instead of the air groove 33, but the other structure is the same as that of the mounting box 30. The sponge 133 is porous and has many small air holes 133a inside and on the surface. In FIG. 17, the air holes 133a are drawn larger for clarity of explanation, but in reality, an infinite number of smaller air holes are provided. The sponge 133 is provided on all the vertical surfaces of the inner wall of the mounting box 130. Note that the sponge 133 is not provided up to the upper end of the opening 132.

When the glove 80 is attached to the opening 132 of the attachment box 130 with the vacuum pump 23 being operated, negative pressure from the negative pressure inlet 131 is taken into the sealed attachment box 130.
At this time, the glove 80 expands due to negative pressure and sticks to the surface of the mounting box 130, but a porous sponge 133 is interposed between the glove 80 and the inner peripheral surface of the mounting box 30. Similarly to the longitudinal groove of the air groove, the negative pressure can be uniformly distributed in the mounting box 130. In other words, even if the glove 80 expands and sticks to the inside of the mounting box 130, it is not hermetically divided at the fingertip side and the wrist side.
As described above, the sponge 133 can provide the same effect as when the air groove 33 is provided. Since the sponge 133 is not provided up to the upper end of the opening 132, air can be prevented from leaking from the opening 132 after the glove 80 is inserted. In this embodiment, the sponge 133 corresponds to the negative pressure diffusion mechanism in the present invention.

(Third embodiment)
18 is a cross-sectional view when the mounting box 230 according to the third embodiment is cut at the same position as in FIG. The mounting box 230 uses a net 233 instead of the air groove 33, but the other structure is the same as that of the mounting box 30. The mesh 233 is formed by finely intersecting stainless steel or the like in a lattice shape. In FIG. 18, the lattice is drawn larger for clarity of explanation, but in reality, a finer lattice is provided. Further, the net 233 is provided on all the vertical surfaces of the inner wall of the mounting box 230. Note that the net 233 is not provided up to the upper end of the opening 232.

When the glove 80 is attached to the opening 232 of the attachment box 230 while the vacuum pump 23 is activated, negative pressure from the negative pressure inlet 231 is taken into the sealed attachment box 230.
Here, the net 233 is an example of a three-dimensional structure that is mounted on the inner peripheral surface of the mounting box 30 and allows gas to pass at least in the longitudinal direction of the mounting box. That is, in the same reason that the vertical groove is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the mounting box 230, even in a three-dimensional structure that protrudes inward from the inner peripheral surface of the mounting box 230, similarly to the vertical groove of the air groove, The negative pressure can be uniformly distributed in the mounting box 230. In other words, even if the glove 80 expands and sticks to the inside of the mounting box 230, it is not hermetically divided at the fingertip side and the wrist side.
Since the net 233 is not provided up to the upper end of the opening 232, air can be prevented from leaking from the opening 232 after the glove 80 is inserted. In this embodiment, the net 233 corresponds to the negative pressure diffusion mechanism in the present invention.

(Fourth embodiment)
19 to 21 are a front view, a plan view, and a side view of an automatic glove wearing device 310 according to a modification.
In this example, the mounting box 330 is supported above the support case 320. This is different from the previous embodiment in that the vacuum pump 323 is accommodated in the support case 320 and the mounting box 330 is a single unit.
A rotating frame 360 having a cylindrical shape at the lower end and a U-shaped bifurcated shape at the upper end is mounted on the upper portion of the supporting case 320. The rotating frame 360 itself is in a horizontal plane with respect to the upper surface of the supporting case 320. It is rotatably supported.
The mounting box 330 is supported on both left and right side surfaces by a bifurcated portion at the top of the rotating frame 360. The mounting box 330 is also rotatably supported at this support site, and is supported on both the left and right sides by a horizontal rotation axis, and is rotatable with respect to the vertical plane.
The so-called left and right swinging and fixing in the horizontal plane and the swinging and fixing of swinging to change the angle of attack in the vertical plane are realized in the same manner as the clamp mechanism 71 described above.
The wearing operation of the glove 80 is almost the same as in the above-described embodiment. In the field where a smaller device is desired, a device for wearing such gloves one by one may be used.
(5th Example)
Next, FIG. 22 is an exploded perspective view showing a modified example of the mounting box 30.
When the air groove 33 is provided with a lateral groove, a slide mold is required to form it integrally by resin molding. However, as shown in FIG. 22, the mounting box 430 is divided into two parts, an upper member 430a and a lower member 430b, and is molded with resin. You may make it form. In this way, resin molding can be easily performed without using a slide mold.
