Therefore, the boot cleaning device is equipped at its bottom with a scraping bar whose tip fits into the concave part of the sole, a rubbing bar whose tip touches the convex part of the sole, and a brush. The boot wearer stands in a comfortable position and places one of their boots on the scraping bar, rubbing bar, and brush, and moves it back and forth and side to side while pressing down. The scraping bar is used to scrape out the mud and sand stuck in the concave part of the sole. The rubbing bar is used to rub the convex part of the sole. The brush is also rubbed against the sole. Dirt adhering to the uneven sole of the boots is removed with the scraping bar, rubbing bar, and brush.

２）長靴洗浄装置は、掻き出し棒、擦り棒とブラシの上に載せた長靴の左側と右側、上側になる位置にそれぞれブラシを設ける。長靴の着用者は、立った姿勢で、左側と右側、上側のブラシに囲まれた長靴を動かして左側のブラシ、右側のブラシ又は上側のブラシにそれぞれ擦り付ける。長靴は、外面に付着していた汚れを左側と右側、上側のブラシで擦り取る。 2) The boot cleaning device has brushes on the left, right and upper sides of the boot, which is placed on top of the scraping stick, scrubbing stick and brushes. The wearer of the boots stands and moves the boot, which is surrounded by the left, right and upper brushes, to rub it against the left brush, right brush or upper brush, respectively. Dirt adhering to the outer surface of the boot is rubbed off by the left, right and upper brushes.

３）長靴洗浄装置は、掻き出し棒、擦り棒と下側のブラシの上に載せた長靴の左側と右側、上側と下側になる位置にそれぞれ水の噴出口を設ける。左右上下の噴出口に囲まれた長靴に左右上下の噴出口からそれぞれ水の噴流をぶつける。長靴は、外面を水洗いする。外面に付着していた汚れを水で洗い落とす。 3) The boot cleaning device has water nozzles on the left and right, top and bottom of the boot, which is placed on the scraping stick, scrubbing stick and lower brush. Jets of water are sprayed from the left, right, top and bottom nozzles onto the boot, which is surrounded by the left, right, top and bottom nozzles. The outside of the boot is washed with water. Dirt adhering to the outside surface is washed away with water.

４）長靴洗浄装置は、噴出口から噴出する水に、長靴への付着が予想される病原体用の消毒液を混入する。左右上下の噴出口に囲まれた長靴に消毒液入りの水をぶつける。長靴は、外面を消毒液で消毒する。外面に付着している病原体を無毒にする。 4) The boot cleaning device mixes the water sprayed from the nozzles with a disinfectant for pathogens that are expected to adhere to boots. The water containing the disinfectant is sprayed onto the boots, which are surrounded by nozzles on the left, right, top and bottom. The exterior of the boots is disinfected with the disinfectant.

［第２例（図３、図４参照）］
本例の長靴洗浄装置は、給水路２１を構成するのに、第１例における硬質管の縦棒１、２と横棒３、６、２３に替えて、軟質管のホースを使用している。 [Second Example (see Figs. 3 and 4)]
In the boot washing apparatus of this embodiment, a water supply passage 21 is formed by using soft hose pipes instead of the rigid vertical bars 1, 2 and horizontal bars 3, 6, 23 used in the first embodiment.

左右の縦棒１、２は、図３、図４に示すように、前側に下側のホース４１と上側のホース４２をそれぞれ縛り付けて取り付けている。下側のホース４１は、下側のブラシ７、掻き出し棒１３と擦り棒１４の上に載せた長靴ｂの左側、下側、右側と上側の各位置を通過する形状に曲げ、両端を中間の横棒２３の上側に配置して三方接手４３の下側の二つの口にそれぞれ接続している。そして、下側のホース４１は、長靴ｂの左側、下側、右側と上側になる位置に、それぞれ、長靴ｂに向けて水を噴出する噴出口２２を設けている。上側のホース４２は、下端を三方接手４３の上側の一つの口に接続し、上端を縦棒１の外側に突き出してホース接続端２５にしている。ホース接続端２５は、水道に接続した水道ホースｗの先端に接続可能にしている。即ち、下側のホース４１と上側のホース４２の内部で給水路２１を構成している。 As shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, the left and right vertical bars 1 and 2 are attached by tying a lower hose 41 and an upper hose 42 to the front. The lower hose 41 is bent so that it passes through the left, lower, right and upper positions of the boot b placed on the lower brush 7, the scraping bar 13 and the rubbing bar 14, and both ends are placed on the upper side of the middle horizontal bar 23 and connected to two ports on the lower side of the three-way joint 43. The lower hose 41 has nozzles 22 for spraying water toward the boot b at the left, lower, right and upper positions of the boot b. The lower end of the upper hose 42 is connected to one port on the upper side of the three-way joint 43, and the upper end protrudes outside the vertical bar 1 to form the hose connection end 25. The hose connection end 25 can be connected to the tip of the water hose w connected to the water supply. In other words, the water supply channel 21 is formed inside the lower hose 41 and the upper hose 42.

更に、上側のホース４２には、消毒液容器３２の消毒液流出管３３を接続している。即ち、消毒液流出管３３内部の消毒液供給路３１を上側のホース４２内部の給水路２１、噴出口２２の上流位置に接続している。 Furthermore, the disinfectant outlet pipe 33 of the disinfectant container 32 is connected to the upper hose 42. That is, the disinfectant supply path 31 inside the disinfectant outlet pipe 33 is connected to the water supply path 21 inside the upper hose 42 and the upstream position of the spray nozzle 22.

また、本例の長靴洗浄装置は、長靴ｂを掻き出し棒１３と擦り棒１４の上に載せて押し付けることによる取り付け枠１１の撓み、取り付け枠１１先端の下降量を低減するため、第１例における取り付け枠１１先端下の左右の後側の脚部１６に替えて、図４に示すように、左右の後下りの傾斜棒４６を使用している。 In addition, in order to reduce the bending of the mounting frame 11 and the amount of downward movement of the tip of the mounting frame 11 caused by placing and pressing the boot b on the scraping bar 13 and the rubbing bar 14, the boot cleaning device of this example uses left and right rear downward inclined bars 46 as shown in Figure 4, instead of the left and right rear legs 16 under the tip of the mounting frame 11 in the first example.

左右の後下りの傾斜棒４６は、それぞれ、左右の縦棒１、２の、取り付け枠１１先端より高い位置と取り付け枠１１先端の左右位置に掛け渡して上下の端を固定している。傾斜棒４６、縦棒１、２と横棒３、６、２３は、中空又は中実の硬質棒にしている。材質は、金属や硬質合成樹脂にしている。 The left and right rear downward inclined bars 46 are respectively hung over the left and right vertical bars 1 and 2 at a position higher than the tip of the mounting frame 11 and at the left and right positions of the tip of the mounting frame 11, and the upper and lower ends are fixed. The inclined bars 46, the vertical bars 1 and 2, and the horizontal bars 3, 6, and 23 are made of hollow or solid hard bars. They are made of metal or hard synthetic resin.

その他の点は、第１例におけるのと同様である。第１例におけるのと同様な部分には、図中、第１例におけるのと同一の符号を付ける。 Other aspects are the same as in the first example. Parts that are the same as in the first example are given the same reference symbols in the drawings.
