Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an umbrella dewatering device capable of instantly dewatering a rain-wet umbrella and carrying the umbrella indoors without having to wet the floor surface with rainwater.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 As a conventional umbrella dewatering device of this type, there is one having a structure as shown in FIG. 1, for example. That is, 1 is an umbrella receiver whose upper opening opens in a morning glory shape, and a porous plate 3 is attached to the inner peripheral surface of this umbrella receiver 1 with a gap 2 for ventilation. There is. Further, a water absorbing sheet 4 made of a sheet material having excellent water absorbing property such as cotton cloth and chamois is additionally provided on the inner peripheral surface of the porous plate 3.

The lower end opening of the umbrella receiver 1 is connected via a duct 5 to an intake casing 7 having a sirocco fan 6 therein. Reference numeral 8 is a motor for driving the sirocco fan 6, and 9 and 10 are a drain port and an exhaust port provided in the intake casing 7.

The conventional umbrella dewatering device has the above-mentioned structure. When dewatering an umbrella wet with rainwater, first, the motor 8 is driven to rotate the sirocco fan 6 to rotate the umbrella. When the inside of the container 1 is in a negative pressure state and the wet umbrella 11 is inserted into the inside of the umbrella receiver 1, the wet umbrella cloth 12 is attached to the water absorbing sheet 4 by the negative pressure action. The moisture of the umbrella cloth 12 is absorbed by the water absorbing sheet 4, and the rainwater attached to the umbrella cloth 12 is directly removed.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in such a conventional umbrella dewatering device, the umbrella 11 attached to the umbrella cloth 12 is inserted into the umbrella receiver 1 and is attached to the umbrella cloth 12 under the stationary state of the umbrella. Since the water absorbing sheet 4 is intended to absorb moisture, water absorption (dehydration) of the umbrella cloth portion that is in direct contact with the water absorbing sheet 4 is effective, but it is sandwiched between the overlapping portions of the umbrella cloth. There is a problem in that the rainwater that is absorbed does not have the water absorbing action of the water absorbing sheet 4, so that the rainwater cannot be effectively dehydrated as a whole, and that it takes a long time to complete the dehydration.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention has been made by paying attention to such a conventional problem. After inserting the wet umbrella into the umbrella receiver 1, the wet umbrella is applied with repetitive turning power, and the repetitive turning power is applied. By releasing the weight of the umbrella cloth, the contact surface of the umbrella cloth with the water absorbing sheet can be increased and the water droplets adhering to the umbrella cloth can be dropped to accelerate the dewatering action of the wet umbrella. It is to provide a dehydrator.

[0007]

【Example】

 The present invention will be described in detail below based on the embodiment shown in FIG.

Reference numeral 21 denotes an umbrella receiver whose upper opening opens in a morning glory shape, and a porous curved plate 23 is provided on an inner peripheral surface of the umbrella receiver 21 with a gap 22 for ventilation. Is provided integrally with the umbrella receiver 21. Further, on the inner peripheral surface of the porous curved plate 23, a water absorbing sheet 24 made of a sheet material having excellent water absorbing property such as synthetic leather, chamois or cotton cloth is additionally provided.

The lower end opening of the umbrella receiver 21 is connected to an intake port 27 of a fan device 26 via a duct 25 communicating with the gap 22. Reference numeral 28 is a motor for driving the fan of the fan device 26. A drive shaft 29 of the motor 28 is connected with a rack 32 that reciprocates linearly via a rotary link 30 and a link rod 31. There is. A pinion 33 is meshed with the rack 32, and an upper end of a support shaft 34 of the pinion 33 is attached to a lower end of an inverted cone-shaped basket type umbrella receiver 35 located on an inner bottom surface of the umbrella receiver 21. It is connected. A large number of ribs 36 are formed on the inner peripheral surface of the basket-type umbrella receiver 35 to increase the contact frictional force with the umbrella. In addition, 11 is an umbrella and 12 is an umbrella cloth.

The structure of this embodiment has been described above. Next, the operation thereof will be described. When the motor 28 is driven, the fan device is driven and the inside of the umbrella receiver 21 becomes negative pressure. By inserting the wet umbrella 11 into the umbrella receiver 21, the umbrella cloth 12 of the umbrella cloth 11 of the umbrella 11 is brought into close contact with the surface of the water absorbent sheet 24 by the negative pressure action, and the moisture of the umbrella cloth 12 is absorbed into the water absorbent sheet 24. Rainwater that has been absorbed and adhered to the umbrella cloth 12 is removed. Then, the water absorbed by the water absorbing sheet 24 is sucked through the gap 22 by the negative pressure effect of the rotation of the fan device and discharged from the drainage port 37.

Further, the driving force of the motor 28 causes the rack 32 to reciprocate, which causes the pinion 33 to repeatedly rotate, which causes the umbrella receiver 35 to repeatedly rotate as the pinion 33 repeatedly rotates. Since the umbrella inserted in the umbrella receiver 35 is also repeatedly rotated, the umbrella is shaken by the repeated rotating force, and as a result, the overlapped portions of the umbrella cloth are loosened and the ventilation is good. Therefore, the dehydration effect is enhanced, and the dehydration time can be greatly shortened.

Therefore, according to this embodiment, the utilization rate of the umbrella dehydrator is significantly increased, and the economical efficiency and durability of the dehydrator are improved.

[0013]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, according to the present invention, the water absorbent sheet 24 is additionally provided on the inner peripheral surface, and the umbrella receiver 21 having the upper opening opening in a generally morning glory shape and the water absorbed by the water absorbent sheet 24 are sucked. In an umbrella dewatering device equipped with a fan 26 mechanism, an umbrella cone 35 having a substantially inverted conical shape is rotatably installed in a lower inner portion of the umbrella receptacle 21, and the umbrella cage 35 is repeatedly rotated. Since this is an umbrella dehydrator equipped with the drive means, this significantly reduces the dehydration time of the umbrella, which greatly increases the utilization rate of the dehydrator and further The effect is that economic efficiency and durability are improved.
