Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the lowering of operating efficiency by a method in which a rotary shaft is set to a handle with a drive source, a wiper is attached to the shaft, and a scattering preventer is set around the wiper. CONSTITUTION:When a wiper 10 is immersed in water in a bucket by means of a handle 5 to imbibe water into the wiper 10 and the wiper 10 is pressed on the surface of tile W by means of the handle 5, the sponge of the wiper 10 is elastically compressed. The wiper 10 is turned within a scattering preventer 14 by turning a rotary shaft 8 by a drive source 6 to wipe joint material 4 out from the surface of tiles W by the wiper 10.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a tile wiping device used for wiping off grout and the like adhering to the surface of tiles.

[Prior Art] Generally, tiling work is carried out by applying an undercoat material 2 to the surface of the building frame as shown in FIG. Attach the joint material 4 to the joint area and the tile W for workability.
As shown in Fig. 5, while the grout 4 is slightly wet, use a cloth such as a rag or towel to wipe off the grout 4, etc. adhering to the surface of the tile W. The joints are then finished with a trowel.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, the work of wiping off the grout etc. adhering to the surface of the tiles is currently done manually, which requires a great deal of labor and pain, which makes the work even more difficult. In addition, hard-to-reach areas must be wiped using a stepladder or ladder, which not only reduces work efficiency but also makes the work extremely dangerous. have.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention aims to solve these disadvantages, and its gist is that a rotating shaft is provided in a grip body equipped with a drive source, and a wiping shaft is attached to the rotating shaft. A tile wiping device is characterized in that it is constructed by attaching a handle and disposing a scattering prevention body around the wiping body.

[Operation] Hold the handle and soak the wiping body in water, then hold the handle: i
i Press the wiping body against the tile surface, and turn the rotating shaft using the drive source to rotate the wiping body inside the scatter prevention body.

[Embodiment] FIGS. 1 to 3 show an embodiment of the present invention. still,
The same reference numerals are used for the same parts as those in FIG. 4.5 above.

5 is a handle body, which in this case is made of lightweight material such as aluminum pipe, stainless steel pipe, resin pipe, etc.
An electric motor driven by a commercial power source serving as a driving source 6 is attached to the base side of the grip handle body 5, a housing 7 is attached to the tip of the grip handle body 5, a rotating shaft 8 is supported on the housing 7, and an electric motor serving as the driving source 6 is attached. The output shaft of the motor and the rotating shaft 8 are connected by a transmission shaft 9 so that rotation can be transmitted.

10 is a wiping body, in this case a cylindrical sponge is used, the wiping body 0 is glued to the mounting plate 11, the 7 langes L are attached to the rotating shaft 8, and the mounting body 11 is attached to the flange member. It is configured to be removably attached using mounting bolts G.

k is a scattering prevention body, in this case formed of a rubber material into a cylindrical shape with a widening end; a dish-shaped cover member 6 is attached to the housing 7; The anti-scattering body U is installed at the same position.

Since this embodiment has the above-mentioned configuration, in the tile wiping work, first hold the handle 5 and dip the wiping body into water in a baguette B etc. as shown in Fig. 3, and the wiping body W absorbs water. , while holding the handle 5, press the wiping body 10 against the surface of the tile W, and the sponge serving as the wiping body 10 is elastically compressed and dented as shown in FIG.
When the rotating shaft 8 is turned by a switch of the drive source 6 and the wiping body 10 is rotated within the scattering prevention body μ, the wiping body wipes away the grout 4 etc. adhering to the surface of the tile W. Since the wiping body 10 rotates within the scattering prevention body U, water, joint material 4, etc. are prevented from scattering outward, and the wiping body ω
After much of the joint material 4, etc. has been wiped off, as shown in Fig. 3, while holding the grip handle 5, dip the wiping wood powder into the water in the bucket B, etc.
The wiping body 1 is rotated by rotating the rotating shaft 8 using a switch of the drive source 6, etc.
When 0 is rotated, the grout material 4 etc. wiped off by the wiping body ω is washed away from the wiping body ω, the wiping body 10 is cleaned, and the wiping body 10 is held on the tile handle for 5 minutes again. The wiping work is performed by pressing the W surface, and while holding the handle 5, the wiping body 10 is pulled up from the inside of the bucket B, etc., and the rotating shaft 8 is rotated by the switch of the drive source 6, etc., and the wiping operation is performed. When the handle 10 is rotated, water is drained from the wiper body 1o, and the water content of the wiping wood can be adjusted. Therefore, the tile wiping work can be done extremely easily, and the work efficiency can be greatly improved. In addition, it is possible to easily wipe off hard-to-reach areas, and it also prevents the wiped-off joint material 4, etc. and sewage from scattering, making it easier to wipe clean and further improving work efficiency. .

Although the wiping body l in the above embodiment is made of a sponge, it may also be made of other materials such as resin, and a battery-driven motor or a small engine may be used as the drive source 6. The rotation speed of this drive source can be made variable, so that the rotation speed of the wiping body 10 can be changed to obtain a suitable wiping state, and the handle body 5 can be expanded and contracted. The structure and mounting position are not limited to the above examples, such as making a cut in the leading edge of the scattering prevention body to make it easier to spread.
The design will be modified as appropriate.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, the present invention involves holding the handle and immersing the wiping body in water, pressing the wiping body against the tile surface while holding the handle, and rotating the rotating shaft using the drive source. By rotating the wiping body inside the shatterproof body, you can wipe the tiles.
Therefore, it is possible to perform the tile wiping work extremely easily, significantly improving work efficiency, and wiping away areas that are difficult to reach. Since the scattering of the particles can be prevented, wiping becomes better, and work efficiency can be further improved, and the effect is remarkable.

As described above, the intended purpose can be fully achieved.
