Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a brush such as a hair brush or a clothes brush, and more particularly to a brush which can easily remove and collect dandruff, dust and the like.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Generally, brushing with a hair brush is performed to keep hair and scalp clean, or to massage the scalp and prevent baldness due to hair loss. In addition, brushing with a clothes brush is performed to remove dust and dirt adhering to clothes.In such a case, dandruff and dust are scattered around, which is unsanitary and cleaning is difficult. It is troublesome.

A hair brush for removing dandruff, which is improved in this respect, is disclosed in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 51-35307. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, this hair brush comprises a main body 21 and a handle 22 integrally formed with the main body 21. A large number of flocked portions are provided on the bottom surface of the main body 21, and hairs 25 are implanted in each flocked portion. Further, at the bottom of the main body 21, dandruff suction holes 24 are formed adjacent to the hair-implanted portions, and hair loss suction holes 26 that can be opened and closed in the lengthwise direction of the central portion are formed. Further, inside the main body 21, there is formed a suction passage 27 having one end communicating with the dandruff suction hole 24 and the hair loss suction hole 26, and the other end opening to the end of the handle 22. A suction device (not shown) is connected to the suction pipe 28 via a suction pipe 28. Therefore, by brushing the suction passage 27 with a vacuum while brushing it, the dandruff is swept from the scalp, and the swept dandruff is removed through the dandruff suction hole 24 and the suction passage 27. Through the suction hole 26 and the suction passage 27, suction can be performed by the suction device.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, since the conventional hair brush described above requires brushing by hand, it requires a considerable amount of force to sufficiently remove dandruff from the scalp and massage the scalp. This is a considerable burden especially for elderly or injured persons with limbs who have to brush instead of washing hair because they cannot wash their hair frequently. Since brushing is performed by applying a vacuum with a sucking machine to suck the hair, the hair is drawn into the sucking passage 27 from the dandruff sucking hole 24 and the hair loss sucking hole 26 by the vacuum during brushing, and the main body 21 There was a problem that it got very entangled inside and was very dangerous. Further, the dandruff suction hole 24 tends to be clogged with dandruff, which is unpractical because this portion is unsanitary and the ability to absorb dandruff is reduced.

The present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and it is easy to sweep dandruff and dust and massage the scalp, and scatter swept dandruff around. An object of the present invention is to provide a brush that can be collected without being clogged with the brush and is safe when used as a hair brush.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 To achieve the above object, the brush of the present invention comprises a main body having a large number of bristles planted on the bottom surface, a dust collecting hole formed at the inside of the main body, and having one end opening to the bottom surface of the main body. The dust collecting electrode is provided on the inner wall of the hole and is configured to be charged with static electricity, and a vibrator for vibrating the main body.

[0007]

[Work]

 According to the above brush, the vibration of the vibrator facilitates the sweeping of dandruff and dust adhering to the object of the brush sink, and the swept dandruff and dust are removed by the action of static electricity charged on the dust collecting electrode. It is adsorbed by the dust collecting electrode through the dust collecting hole.

[0008]

Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 is a vertical sectional view showing an embodiment of a hair brush to which the present invention is applied, and FIG. 2 is a bottom view of the hair brush shown in FIG. In the figure, 1 is a main body, 2 is a handle 2 formed integrally with the main body 1, and on the bottom surface of the main body 1, bristles 4 are planted in each of a large number of hair-implanted portions. Further, a dust collection hole 5 is formed so as to penetrate the main body 1 and the handle 2, one end of the dust collection hole 5 is largely opened at the center of the bottom surface of the main body 1, and the other end is opened at the end face of the handle 2. is doing. A dust collection panel 6 as a dust collection electrode is attached to the top wall of the dust collection hole 5. The dust collecting panel 6 is made of, for example, silver foil or aluminum foil, and is connected to an appropriate external static electricity generating device (not shown) via a connector 7 arranged at one end so as to be charged with static electricity. ing. The static electricity generator is turned on and off by interlocking with a vibrator switch 9 described later or by operating a switch (not shown) separate from the switch 9.

Reference numeral 8 in FIG. 1 denotes a vibrator for giving vibration to a brushing target. The vibrator 8 is composed of a motor or a vibrator, and is connected to a dry battery 10 incorporated in the main body 1 via a switch 9. Reference numeral 11 in FIG. 1 is a suction pipe detachably connected to the end of the handle 2, and the other end of the suction pipe 11 is connected to a vacuum source such as a vacuum cleaner (not shown). Has become.

When brushing with the hair brush described above, the switch 9 is operated to operate the vibrator 8 and the static electricity generator to operate to charge the dust collecting panel 6 with static electricity. When the hair brush is applied to the head in this state, the vibration generated in the vibrator 8 is transmitted to the head through the bristles 4, lifts dander from the scalp, and massages the scalp. Therefore, these operations can be performed easily and in a short time, as compared with the conventional method that is performed manually. Also, the swept dandruff passes through the opening of the dust collection hole 5 on the bottom surface of the main body 1 due to the action of static electricity generated in the dust collection panel 6, and is adsorbed to the dust collection panel 6, so that the dandruff rotates around the dandruff. Also, clogging the brush does not make this area unsanitary or reduce the ability to absorb dandruff.

When the brushing is finished, the switch 9 is turned off to stop the vibration of the vibrator 8, the hair brush is separated from the head, the static electricity generating device is stopped, and at the same time, the vacuum source is activated. As a result, the static electricity of the dust collection panel 6 is deenergized, and the dandruff adsorbed on the dust collection panel 6 passes through the handle 2 side of the dust collection hole 5 and the suction pipe 11 by the action of the vacuum of the vacuum source. And is instantly collected on the vacuum source side. Alternatively, after brushing, carry the hair brush to the container for the disposal of dandruff, and then stop the static electricity generation device so that the dandruff can be dropped into the container for disposal. Without it, dandruff can be collected. As described above, in the hair brush of the present invention, dandruff is adsorbed to the dust collecting panel 6 by static electricity during brushing, and the dandruff is collected with or without vacuum after brushing. However, there is no danger of being pulled inside the body 1 by the vacuum.

Although the brush of the present invention is applied to a hair brush in the above-described embodiment, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is needless to say that the present invention can be similarly applied to a brush for clothes. Is.

[0013]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above in detail, according to the brush of the present invention, it is easy to wipe dandruff and dust and massage the scalp, and the swept dandruff and the like are not scattered around and get stuck in the brush. It can be collected without any damage, and is safe even when used as a hair brush.
