Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] This invention relates to a simple manual type laundry set.

[Conventional technology]

2. Description of the Related Art Electric washing machines are used for washing clothes in ordinary households, which are equipped with rotary blades in a water tank and are rotated by a motor to agitate clothing and the like in water to wash away dirt.

[The problem that the idea aims to solve]

However, in this electric washing machine, clothes are simply stirred in water, and heavily soiled items such as dish towels, socks, and sleeves around the collars of underwear cannot be cleaned and must be rubbed by hand afterwards. Long items such as bandages can get twisted and take a lot of effort to unravel, and woolen fabrics, towels, thin high-quality clothing, thick sweatshirts, etc. can lose their shape or be damaged by the rotating blades. There were some drawbacks such as:

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, this invention consists of a water tank with an open top to put the laundry in, and a push rod that is inserted into the water tank and presses the laundry. A bowl-shaped push plate is fixedly provided at the lower end of the bar with the inner surface facing downward, and a plurality of water holes are formed in the side surface of the push plate along the direction of a spiral centered on the axis of the rod.

[Effect]

According to this invention, the laundry in the water tank is immersed in water containing detergent, and is repeatedly compressed by the pushing plate of the push rod and elastically restored by the laundry itself. is forced to pass through, creating a powerful cleaning action. Further, when the laundry is compressed, water from the laundry is ejected from the water passage hole of the push plate around the peg, forming a vortex in the water tank. Then, when the rod is pulled upward, water flows from the water hole to the inside of the bowl-shaped push plate in the direction of the swirl around the axis of the rod, generating a vortex flow in the opposite direction to the vortex flow. do. That is, as the push rod moves up and down, a reversal of the vortex occurs in the water tank, and at this time, the agitated detergent increases the efficiency of the cleaning action, and the laundry drawn to the center of the vortex is kneaded. In addition, since water passes through the push plate from above and below, water resistance is reduced, making it easier to push and pull the push rod in the up and down direction.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of this invention will be described based on the accompanying drawings. This laundry set is laundry A (see Figure 3).
A cylindrical water tank 1 with an open top to hold the laundry, and a stick 2 that is inserted into the water tank 1 to press the laundry.
It consists of a laundry basket 3 and a water tank lid 4 as other parts.

A semicircular handle 5 is attached to the upper end of the water tank 1, making it easy to carry. In addition, the size of this water tank can be appropriately selected, such as a medium-sized tank with a capacity of about 30, a large tank that can accommodate curtains, sheets, etc., and a small tank that can accommodate towels, socks, etc.

The push rod 2, which plays the most important role in this set, has a bowl-shaped push plate 7, which has the edges of a plurality of blades 10 stacked one on top of the other, attached to the lower end of the handle 6. The handle 6 has a threaded joint 8 in the middle and can be shortened by being divided into two parts from there. The lower edge of the push plate 7 curves smoothly to prevent laundry from getting damaged.
Water holes 9 are formed on the side surfaces at intervals when the middles of adjacent blades 10 are overlapped, and there are a plurality of water holes 9 as a whole, and the spiral direction centered on the axis of the rod 2 is formed. is located along. For this reason, when the push rod 2 is moved to press the laundry in the water in a vertical direction, the water seeping out from the laundry is discharged diagonally from the water hole along the blades, creating a vortex in the water tank 1. , when the rod 2 is moved upwards, the vortex is reversed. When the stick 2 is moved up and down in this way, the vortex is reversed and the detergent is stirred.
Cleaning efficiency is good, and since water easily escapes above and below the pushing plate 7, no great force is required to operate the pushing rod 2.

Note that the shape of the push plate is not limited to the above-mentioned shape, and various shapes and sizes can be selected as appropriate.

The laundry basket 3 has a hanging handle 11 attached to its upper end, a sloping bottom plate 12 at its lower part, and stands vertically on a plurality of long and short legs 13. This basket is sized to fit snugly in the aquarium, and the rods disassembled from the threaded joints are stored in this basket, and when the lid 4 is covered, it does not take up much space when not in use. .

A radial groove 14 is carved in the bottom plate 12 from the upper edge to the lower edge, so that water dripping from wet laundry can be collected and drained well.

FIG. 4 shows an aquarium according to another embodiment of this invention. This water tank has a size suitable for washing ordinary laundry, and a drainage hole 15 is provided at the lower end of the side plate to facilitate drainage after washing, and a flexible hose 16 is attached to this hole, and a rubber hose is attached to the lower surface of the bottom plate. A non-slip piece 17 is attached, and a stopper 18 is attached to the base of the hose.

When using the laundry set, as shown in Figure 3, fill the water tank with hot water or water, add the required amount of detergent and laundry, hold the handle, and press the laundry with the push plate of the stick. Repeat. At this time, when the pressing plate is separated and the compressed laundry restores itself with its own elasticity and absorbs water, it is pressed again to compress and dehydrate the laundry, and the water containing the washed material often penetrates the weave of the fabric. Therefore, a large cleaning effect can be obtained with a weak force.

It is convenient to use a regular electric washing machine for washing and dehydration after washing.

[Effect of idea]

As mentioned above, the laundry set according to this invention consists of a washing water tank and a wand that presses the laundry in this water tank to remove dirt. Since the washing action is added, even heavy dirt can be easily removed, the amount of detergent used is also small, and the water resistance of the wand is low, making it easy to operate, and the amount of water used is lower than when washing with an electric washing machine. It is possible to save water because less amount is required. In addition, long items such as bandages will not get twisted, and even raised items such as woolen fabrics and towels will not lose their shape or damage the surface, and curtains,
It has many advantages, such as making it easier to wash even wide sheets such as sheets. Therefore, in addition to general household use, it can be used in restaurants where cloth towels and other items are often washed, hairdressing salons, hospitals where bandages and gauze are often washed, sports training camps where clothes are extremely dirty, and places without electricity. It is extremely useful for camping, etc.
