Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Object] An object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning tool that easily cleans the inside of a curved pipe at a low cost. [Structure] A flexible brush portion (16) provided with a restoring force by a leaf spring (16A) is provided at the tip of a handle bar (15).

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a curved pipe cleaning tool used for cleaning a curved pipe such as a U-shaped trap pipe connected to a drainage basin.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 4, for example, when cleaning a U-shaped trap pipe (3) connected to the drainage port (2) of a small-diameter drainage basin (1), the drainage basin (1) is to be cleaned from above. The wire brush (7) having the brush (6) at the tip of the wire (5) was inserted from the connected cleaning tube (4).

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in the above-mentioned conventional wire brush (7), when the wire (5) is bent along the U-shaped trap tube (3), it is not restored, and therefore, it is caught on the inner wall of the U-shaped trap tube (3). It is difficult to insert the U-shaped trap tube (3) into the inner part of the U-shaped trap tube (3) with the brush (6) by reciprocating the wire brush (7). There was a problem that the brush (6) was caught on the inner wall of the room and the resistance increased, making smooth cleaning difficult.

Although a curved pipe such as a U-shaped trap pipe can be easily cleaned by using a high-pressure washing machine, the device is large and expensive, and there is a problem in using it at home.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 As a means for solving the above-mentioned conventional problems, the present invention is a braid consisting of a leaf spring (16A) at the tip of a handle bar (15) and a large number of bristles (16B) protruding from the periphery of the leaf spring (16A). A curved pipe cleaning tool (17) provided with a shear portion (16) is provided.

[0006]

In the present invention, when the cleaning tool (17) is inserted into the curved pipe (3), the leaf spring (16A) of the brush part (16) is bent along the curved pipe (3). The bending of the leaf spring (16A) has stability.

[0007]

【Example】

 The present invention will be described with reference to an embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3. The curved pipe cleaning tool (17) includes a handle bar (15) and a brush portion (15) provided at the tip of the handle bar (15). 16) and the handle bar (15) consists of a telescopically connected tube (15A, 15B, 15C), and the tube (15A, 15B, 15C) is a screw (18A, 18B). Fixed to each other by. The brush portion (16) is composed of a leaf spring (16A) and a large number of bristles (16B) protruding from the periphery of the leaf spring (16A), and a tube of the handle bar (15) via a connecting tube (19). Connected to body (15C).

Steel, particularly stainless steel, is used as the material of the leaf spring 16A, but if a superelastic alloy is used, the elasticity of the leaf spring 16A does not change for a long period of time.

The cleaning tool (17) is used, for example, for cleaning the U-shaped trap pipe (3) connected to the drain port (2) of the small diameter drainage basin (1) shown in FIG. That is, the cleaning tool (17) has a handle bar (15) extended to a predetermined length and fixed by screws (18A, 18B), and then a U-shaped trap tube of the drainage basin (1) through a cleaning cylinder (4). Insert it in (3), move the handle bar (15) up and down by hand, and clean the inside of the U-shaped trap tube (3) with the bristles (16B) with the brush part (16). At this time, the brush part (16) of the cleaning tool (17) bends along the U-shaped trap tube (3), but is restored by the leaf spring (16A).

[0010]

[Effect of the device]

 Therefore, in the present invention, the cleaning tool can be inserted into the inner part of the curved pipe with an inexpensive and simple tool, and even when rubbing, there is no catch and resistance is small, and cleaning of the curved pipe is easy and complete even in the home. Can be done.
