Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] This invention is useful for scraping off snow, frost, etc. that has frozen on the surface of the car body, windshield, window glass, etc., or on the inside of a tire house, etc. This relates to a frost and snow removal tool used to knock off frozen icicles, etc.

[Conventional technology]

During severe cold weather, the surface of the car body and windshield,
To remove frozen snow, frost, etc. from windshields, etc., it is done by pouring hot water over it, but it takes time to prepare the hot water, and it is difficult to remove snow or frost when driving in extremely cold regions. There was a problem with not being able to prepare hot water.

To solve this problem, for example, it would be possible to bury heating wires in the windshield, etc., but this would be costly, consume batteries, and cause problems such as the heating wires blocking the windshield's visibility. occurs.

Therefore, a frost and snow remover that easily removes snow, frost, etc. by hand was proposed, for example, in Publication of Utility Model Publication No. 1831/1983. According to this, an edge portion made of hard synthetic resin is attached to one side of a groove-shaped metal frame having a handle, and a wiping piece made of an elastic material is attached to the other side of the frame.

To remove snow, frost, etc. that has frozen and adhered to a windshield, etc., the snow, frost, etc. is peeled off from the windshield, etc. using the edge portion, and then the frost, frost, etc. is scraped off with a wiping piece. In addition, to remove icicles that have frozen and adhered to the mud splash prevention rubber pieces installed inside the tire house or on the rear side of the tire house, use one longitudinal end of the edge part that protrudes from the frame as a hammer. Knock off icicles, etc. with one end.

However, when knocking down icicles or the like, there were problems such as the frame accidentally hitting the tire house or the mud splash prevention rubber piece, causing the paint on the tire house to peel off or the mud splash prevention rubber piece to tear.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

The present invention was developed in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to remove the paint on the tire house when removing frozen icicles etc. from the inside of the tire house or on the mud splash prevention rubber pieces. To provide a tool for removing frost and snow without fear of tearing a mud splash prevention rubber piece.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, the frost and snow remover of the present invention has an edge part and a hammer part that receive impact integrated with the main body of the remover. A cylindrical handle attachment part is provided, a mounting groove for gripping the wiping piece is provided near the tip on the front side, a hammer part with a sharp tip is formed on one side, and an arcuate tip is formed on the other side. The main body of the remover, each provided with a hammer portion, was integrally molded from synthetic resin.

Then, a wiping piece made of an elastic material was inserted into the attachment groove of the main body of the remover, and a handle was attached to the handle attachment part to form a frost and snow remover.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1 to 4 show an example of the frost and snow removal tool of the present invention. Reference numeral 1 in the figure is a remover main body, which is made of a synthetic resin having impact resistance at low temperatures, such as polycarbonate, ST nylon, etc.

A cylindrical mounting part 2 extending rearward is integrally provided at the rear central position of the removal tool main body 1, and one end of the handle 3 is inserted into the mounting part 2 and fixed with a screw 4. There is.

An edge portion 5 is integrally formed at the tip of the remover body 1 along the tip. Further, a mounting groove 6 is provided at a position near the tip on the surface side of the removal tool main body 1 along the tip, the inside of which is wider than the top opening 6a.

A base 7a of a wiping piece 7 made of an elastic material such as rubber and having a base 7a having approximately the same shape as the longitudinal section (see FIG. 2) is inserted into the mounting groove 6 from the upper surface opening 6a. has been done. For this insertion,
Since the base portion 7a is temporarily compressed and returns to its original shape due to its restoring elastic force when it is completely accommodated in the mounting groove 6a, there is no fear that the wiping piece 7 will come out of the mounting groove 6 unnecessarily. The wiping piece 7 has an edge portion 7b at its tip and is formed in an arc shape.

In addition, on both sides of the distal end side of the removal tool main body 1,
Hammer portions 8a and 8b are integrally formed, respectively. The tip of one of the hammer portions 8a located on the right side of FIG. 1 is formed sharply, as shown in the same figure and FIG. 3. Further, the tip of the other hammer portion 8b located on the left side in FIG. 1 is formed into a substantially arc shape as shown in the same figure and FIG. 4.
As described above, since the edge portion 7b and the hammer portions 8a, 8b, which are subjected to impact, are provided integrally with the remover main body 1, a strong structure with impact resistance can be achieved.

Furthermore, since the molding is performed simultaneously with the molding of the synthetic resin material, there is an advantage that the cost is extremely low.

Next, the case where frost, snow, icicles, etc. are removed using the above-mentioned frost and snow remover will be explained.

Grip the handle 3, apply the edge portion 5 to the windshield of a car, etc. on which snow or frost has frozen and adhered, and rub it by pressing the remover body 1 to remove the frost or snow from the windshield, etc. Ru.

Thereafter, by lightly pressing the edge portion 7b of the wiping piece 7 against a windshield or the like and rubbing it, the detached frost and snow will be removed.

In addition, the hammer parts 8a and 8b knock off icicles that have frozen and adhered to the inside of the tire house and the mud splash prevention rubber pieces. At this time, the hammer parts 8a and 8b are selected depending on the size of the icicle and the state of frozen adhesion.

During the above-mentioned operation, since the remover main body 1, edge portion 5, and hammer portions 8a and 8b are made of synthetic resin, the windshield etc. will not be damaged when scraping the windshield etc., and the icicles will be knocked off. There is no risk of peeling off the paint on the tire house or tearing the mud splash prevention rubber piece.

Furthermore, since polycarbonate or the like, which has impact resistance at low temperatures, is used as the synthetic resin, there is no risk of the hammer parts 8a, 8b being damaged when knocking down icicles or the like.

[Effect of idea]

As explained above, according to the present invention, the edge portion that receives impact and the hammer portions on both sides are provided in an integral structure with the remover body, resulting in a strong structure with impact resistance. It has the advantage of being extremely low cost because it is molded at the same time as the material is being molded.Furthermore, since the hammer parts, which are also made of synthetic resin, are integrally provided on both sides of the main body of the remover made of synthetic resin, the tire house There is no risk of peeling off the paint on the tire house or breaking the rubber pieces when knocking off icicles that have frozen and adhered to the inside of the tire house or the mud splash prevention rubber pieces. In addition, since the tip of one hammer part is sharp and the tip of the other hammer part is formed in an almost arc shape, the hammer part can be used depending on the size of the icicle and the state of frozen adhesion, making it convenient to use. Moreover, it can be removed reliably without leaving any residue.
