Is housed.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 This invention relates to a germicidal float.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 For example, toys may be used by toddlers when they play in the bath or pool. However, in such toys, water stains and molds sometimes occurred due to various bacteria and microorganisms floating in the water while being left for a long time. In addition, such toys are very problematic in terms of hygiene because infants may touch them with bare hands or put them directly into their mouths.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The present invention has been proposed in view of the above-mentioned problems, and an object thereof is to provide a sterilizing float capable of removing various bacteria and microorganisms in the water only by floating it on the water surface.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 That is, the present invention relates to a sterilization float characterized in that a container having a floating member in the upper part and water in and out is formed in the lower part, and an antibacterial substance is contained in the container.

[0005]

【Example】

 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing an example of the sterilizing float of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view showing another example.

As shown in FIG. 1, the sterilizing float 10 of the present invention comprises a floating member 11 and a container 12 provided below the floating member 11.

The floating member 11 is preferably one that imparts a buoyancy force to float the container 12 just below the water surface, and a hollow molded product of synthetic resin, a foamed resin molded product, or a wooden product is used. In this embodiment, a flexible sheet made of vinyl chloride or the like is inflated into a balloon shape.

The container 12 is composed of a container body 13 made of synthetic resin or the like, and a large number of water passage portions 16 formed of small holes are formed on the bottom surface 14 and side surfaces 15 thereof so that water can freely flow in and out. ing. The water passage portion 16 can be formed in a mesh shape or a slit shape.

An antibacterial substance 17 is contained in the container 12. A well-known porous adsorbent is used as the antibacterial substance 17, and the antibacterial substance 17 is sintered and granulated into particles having an appropriate size in order to increase the surface area and enhance the antibacterial effect. Silver zeolite is the preferred material because of its economy and ease of processing.

FIG. 2 shows another example of the present invention. The sterilization float 20 shown in this example comprises a floating member 21 made of a plastic case or the like and a container 22 formed under the floating member 21, and an antibacterial member 27 is housed in the container 22. The floating member 21 is filled with a foamed resin 29 having a specific gravity of about 0.8 so that the container 22 can be floated just below the water surface. Reference numeral 26 is a water passage portion, and 28 is a removable cap provided on the upper portion of the floating member 21.

According to the present invention, for example, after playing with water, the toy is put in a bucket containing water and the sterilizing float is floated on the surface of the water. When playing with water, the sterilizing float 10 may be floated on the surface of the water together with the toy. Water flows into the inside of the container from the water passage of the container and comes into contact with the antibacterial substance to adsorb and remove various bacteria and microorganisms in the water. In addition, since water freely flows in and out of the container 12, it is possible to maintain a purified state at all times, and no water marks or molds are generated even if it is left for a long time.

[0012]

[Effect of the device]

 As shown and described above, according to the sterilizing float of the present invention, it is possible to surely adsorb and remove microorganisms and various bacteria in water simply by floating it on the water surface. Therefore, if it is floated with a toy for playing with water such as infants, it will be very hygienic without water stains or mold. Further, by forming the floating member in various shapes, it is possible to provide the floating member which has a different design.
