Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a floor cleaning device for a urinal attached to a toilet room.

(Prior art and its problems) The floor of the urinal installed in the toilet room is dirty with so-called dirt and causes odor, which is unfavorable from an environmental and hygienic point of view. The floor is swept with a mop or the like, but this cleaning work is done, for example, once a day, and it is currently undesirable that the floor is left with dirt attached for a long time.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to maintain the cleanliness of the urinal floor and to obtain a urinal environment that is environmentally and hygienically preferable.

(Means for solving the problem) A means for solving the above problem is to install a cleaning brush that reciprocates with a predetermined stroke in the front and back direction on the floor below the urinal installed on the wall. The floor surface is swept and cleaned by the reciprocating movement of the brush.

(Operation by the above means) According to the above means, the cleaning brush can be moved back and forth each time it is used, and the floor can be swept and cleaned.

(Example) Next, an example of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

A drain pan 16 is provided below the floor panel 14 within the floor frame 2, and the middle part of the bottom 18a of the drain pan 16 is supported by a support frame 2a provided in the frame 2, and a drain port is provided in the lower part of the bottom 16a. 16b is provided, and the joint vibe 1
At 7, it is connected to the drain pipe 7 described above.

A support frame 18 that is long in the front-rear direction is arranged above the drain pan 16 and below the floor surface 14d of the floor panel 14, and the width of the support frame 18 in the left-right direction is approximately equal to the width between the slits 15°15. , make it slightly larger than this. A sprocket 19° 19 is rotatably supported at the front and rear ends of the support frame 18 via brackets 19a, 19a, and a motor equipped with a speed reducer 20b is mounted on the bottom center of the drain pan 16 via a base 20a. 20 is installed, and the sprocket 21 fixed to the output shaft of the motor 20 and the chain 2 are attached to the sprocket 19 and 19 described above.
2 is wound and mounted.

A roll-shaped brush 23 is disposed on the floor surface 14d of the floor panel 14 so as to traverse the floor surface 14d. The brush 23 is attached through a support shaft 25 that is rotatably supported horizontally on the frames 24 on both sides.
Both sides 24a of the frame 24.

A driven shaft 26 is rotatably mounted horizontally between the lower halves of 24a,
A pinion 27.
27 and both sides 18a, 18 of the support frame 18 below.
It is engaged with a rack 28, 28 which is long in the front-rear direction and is fixedly installed on top a. One end of the spindle 25 mentioned above protrudes from one side 24a, and a pinion 29 is fixed thereto, and the pinion 29 is meshed with the pinion 27 on this side below, and a guide pinion 30 is attached to the front side of the pinion 27. establish.

Above brush 23, pinion 26, 29°30, shaft 25
．． The frame 24 with the frame 26 attached and supported is covered with a cover 31 on the front, back, left, right, and upper sides except for the lower part, and both side parts 24a, 2 of the frame 24 are covered with covers 31.
4a, the gear transmission mechanism of the pinion 26.29, the pinion 30 faces the slit 15.15, and therefore the rack 28
゜28 is arranged directly under the slit 15.15, and the frame 24
The downwardly hanging portions of the slit 15° 15 of both side portions 24a, 24a are connected by a horizontal portion 24b below the floor surface 14d, and the horizontal portion 24b is connected to the chain 22 described above.

By the way, the brush 23 described above is pressed against the floor surface 14d, and the support shaft 25 of the brush 23 is formed in a hollow shape with one end closed, and a large number of cleaning water discharge ports are provided on the outer periphery. One end of the support shaft 25 is connected to a flexible hose 33 via a connecting fitting 32, and the hose 33 is connected to a branch connecting pipe 34 hanging down from the water supply pipe described above. In addition, 35 in FIG. 3 is a chain tensioner, and a floor cleaning machine 36 is formed by 0 or more.

In the above, from the water supply pipe 6 to the hose 30 and the brush 2
A valve 37 is provided in the branch connection pipe 34 for supplying water to the water tank 3, and the valve 37 and the motor 20 are controlled by a controller 38.
Configure it so that it can be started with .

The one on the left side of FIG.
The opening 13 is closed by the front panel 4 and the road surface.

When the flushing water supply knob 10 is pressed, flushing water is first supplied to the urinal 5.
It is discharged from the upper part of the inside and performs cleaning. After the press of the knob 10 is input to the controller 38 and a necessary and sufficient time has elapsed for the person to leave the floor panel 14, that is, the motor 20 is turned on with a time lag in response to the press of the knob 10.
As a result, the sprocket 21 rotates, and the chain 22 is guided by the sprocket 19. It will be pulled to . The tension of the frame 24 of the chain 22 also moves the pinion 27 supported by it, and since it is meshed with the fixed rack 28, it is rotated, and when it is meshed with the pinion 27, the nion 29 also rotates, and as a result, , the support shaft 25 rotates, and the brush 23 rotates. On the other hand, the controller 38 opens the valve 37 as the washer 36 moves, and the water is supplied to the connecting pipe 3.
4. The hose 33 and the metal fittings 32 are installed in the support shaft 25,
Cleaning water is supplied onto the floor surface 14d to be cleaned by the brush 23, and the rotation of the brush 23 and the cleaning water cause the floor surface 14 to be cleaned by the brush 23.
d is washed.

Since the floor surface 14d is mountain-shaped and has slits 15.15 on both sides, the cleaning water flows down from the slits for moving the cleaning machine 36 to the bottom 16a of the floor pan 16. It will fall and be discharged from the drain port 16b into the drain pipe. This is the IB on the right side of Figure 1, and
It is shown in Fig. 3.

The washer 36 moves to the rear end of the floor surface 14d, detects this with a microswitch, reverses the motor 20, returns to the previous position, and detects storage in the opening 13 with a microswitch or the like. to stop the motor 20 and water supply,
Repeat the above cycle.

Although the embodiments have been described in detail above, the reciprocating and rotating mechanisms of the cleaning brushes are not limited to those mentioned above, but are optional. Even if a cylinder mechanism is installed under the floor panel, the brushes can be directly rotated by a motor. You can let me.

(Effects of the Invention) As is clear from the above, according to the present invention, the floor under the urinal can be cleaned every time it is used, and in particular, the cleaning effect is high because the brush is moved back and forth, and the water supply is also used to achieve high cleaning. It is effective, keeps the environment clean, eliminates odors caused by dirt, and allows you to use the toilet comfortably.

In addition, the washer, including the cleaning brush and cover, is stored in the opening provided below the front panel where the urinal is attached, so it can be used naturally without getting in the way when not in use or in use. Washing water can also be discharged under the floor, so water does not accumulate on the floor while still using washing water.Furthermore, by using a chain, sprocket, union, and rack, the reciprocating movement of the washing machine and the rotating cleaning of the brush are driven by the same drive source. This can be done with a simple structure and reliable operation.

Furthermore, by incorporating piping, floor panels, and drainage pans into the floor case and wall case to form a unit, you can eliminate the hassle of flooring.
The above effects can be achieved without requiring complicated construction.

The present invention has many advantages as described above.
