Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate the need of moving a foot, and also, to decrease such danger as a show and the cuffs of trousers twine round a brush by providing a shoe insertion opening part, and the brush rotated by a motor on the front part of a main body, and the upper part and the left and the right, respectively, allowing a put shoe to execute automatically execute a reciprocating motion forward and backward and executing automatically its polishing operation. CONSTITUTION:The upper brush 1 is rotated by a belt 2 and motor 5 power, and side part brushes 4a, 4b are rotated by belts 5a. 5b and motors 6a, 6b power, brought into contact with solid wax 7a, 7b and 7c of shoe polish, and come into contact with the upper part and the side part of a shoe 9 on a shoe putting base 8. The shoe putting base 8 is rotated in the forward/backward directions by using a motor 14 as power by winding steel belts 13a, 13b round a drum 15 in the reverse direction by four pieces of guide wheels 11 on a rail 10. According to said constitution, since the shoe putting base 8 is moved forward and backward automatically, labor for moving a foot can be reduced, and there is scarcely such danger as a foot is inserted excessively into the inside of the device, and also, in an initial. position of the shoe 9 on the shoe putting base 8, the shoe 9 can be inserted without coming into contact with the brush by leaving a space of the side part brushes 4a, 4b, therefore, such danger as the cuffs of trousers, etc., twine round the brush decreases.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention can be installed mainly in public places such as stations and buildings, and can be used as an automatic shoe shine machine that requires input of coins or an automatic shoe shine machine that provides free service. This is what I did.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, there is an automatic shoe shine machine that fixes the shoe and moves the rotating brush along the shoe, but the mechanism is complicated and the manufacturing and maintenance costs are high. There is an automatic shoe polishing machine that is equipped with a fixed rotating brush that polishes the sides, and allows a person to freely move their feet back and forth to polish their shoes.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

Automatic shoe polishing machines use a fixed rotating brush to polish shoes by moving the shoes, but because the feet can move freely,
There is a risk of getting your shoes or the hem of your pants tangled in the rotating brush while polishing your shoes, and when you first put your shoes on, you have to push apart the pair of rotating side brushes with your shoes and insert them into the brush. The problem was that there was a high risk of the hem becoming tangled.

[Means to solve the problem]

In the present invention, since the shoe rest is automatically moved back and forth by a motor, there is no need to move the foot placed on the shoe rest, and the internal ratio of the device is too high, which can cause shoes or the hem of pants to get tangled in the brush. It reduces the danger.

In addition, in the initial position where shoes are first placed on the shoe rest, the cam of the side brush opening/closing arm opens the space between the side brushes, making it possible to insert shoes without touching the side brushes. After placing the shoes, as the shoe rest starts to move, the cam movement of the side brush opening/closing arm moves the space between the side planos to the fixed position for polishing the shoes, and the side brush operates as a shoe polisher. I do.

〔Example〕

The upper swing l in the overall configuration diagram of FIG.
are rotated by the power of motors 6a, 6b via belts 5a, 5b, and brought into contact with solid wax 7a, 7b, 7c containing shoe polish to impregnate the brushes with wax, and the shoes placed on a shoe rest 8 are brought into contact with solid wax 7a, 7b, 7c containing shoe polish 9, respectively. The shoe rest 8 has a structure in which it can be moved in the front and back direction by means of four guide wheels 11 that roll astride the rail IO shown in FIG.
Steel belts 13a and 13b attached to 2a and +2b
is wound around the drum 15 in the opposite direction, and when the motor 14 is used as power to rotate the shoe platform 8, the shoe rest 8 is moved around the drum 15
The shoes can be automatically polished by an upper brush 1 which moves by the rotation of the shoe rest 5 and rotates in contact with the shoes on the shoe rest, and by a pair of side swings 4a and 4b.

In the initial position where shoes are first placed on the shoe rest, the third (a
) As shown in E, the end of the side planar opening/closing arm 16 comes into contact with the claw I7 at the end of the shoe rest 8, and this force causes the side planar opening/closing arm 16 to rotate about the fulcrum shaft 18. , the other end of the side brush opening/closing arm 16 moves within the hole 20 made in the connecting plate 19 connecting the motor 6b and the side swing 4b, and the side brush 4b is pulled toward the white side of the shoe rest by the spring 21. expand. As shown in 3(b) 1m, when the shoe rest 8 moves from the initial position, the claw 17 at the end of the shoe rest 8 separates from the side brush opening/closing arm 16, and the side brush resting on the coupling plate 19 moves. The force exerted by the opening/closing arm 16 is eliminated, and the force of the spring 21 moves the side swing 4b toward the white shoe rest side. The above-mentioned opening/closing operation of the side brushes 4b opens and closes at the same time as the pair of side brushes 4a. Therefore, the distance between the pair of side brushes is widened at the initial position of the shoe rest 8, and the shoes are placed on the side brushes. allows for insertion without touching the

〔Effect of the invention〕

In the present invention, the shoe rack is automatically moved back and forth by a motor, which reduces the effort required to move the feet and reduces the risk of shoes or pants hems getting tangled in the brush due to the internal ratio of the device being set too high. In addition, since the space between the side brans is increased at the initial position where shoes are first placed on the shoe rest, shoes can be inserted without touching the side brans, reducing the risk of the hem of pants getting entangled with the side brushes. effective.
