[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a line drawer, and more particularly to a line drawer that is a compact device and can easily draw a clean line of paint.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, line pullers are used to draw lines on parking lots, factories, warehouses, tennis courts, playgrounds, asphalt, concrete roads, floors, etc. In the line puller, the bottom plate of the floating box mounted above the rear end of the frame has a long outlet in the left-right width direction, and the outlet has a flat plate-shaped opening / closing lid. The amount of paint flowing out can be adjusted with a stopper, and the paint flowing out from the outlet of the floating box can be simply poured into the coating part, and a sponge pad installed between the rear ends of the coating part, etc. I had painted a line on the road surface, floor surface, etc.

However, since this line puller is formed so that the outlet port, which is simply formed in the bottom plate of the floating box in the left-right width direction, to be long and opened, is opened and closed by a flat plate-like opening / closing lid, the coating material floats. Since it concentrates on the central part of the outlet of the box, and the paint in the application part that flows out from the outlet of the floating box is applied with a sponge pad, etc., the paint is evenly leveled. The line could not be easily and neatly drawn on the road surface or floor surface due to uneven coating.

Moreover, since the width of the outlet of the floating box is formed to be the same from one end direction to the other end direction, when a line is drawn on a sloped road surface or floor surface in a direction orthogonal to the sloped surface. In addition, since the paint flows out to the lower side of the slope, uneven coating of the paint can be wide, and it is virtually impossible to draw lines on the sloped road surface or floor surface.

A solution to these problems is known from Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 63-190312, which discloses a floating box for temporarily holding a paint, which is mounted above the rear end of the frame. The bottom plate has a fitting part with a paint outlet in the left-right width direction, and the fitting part has a rectangular shape for drawing a horizontal plane line that is divided in the adjustment plate at appropriate intervals in the longitudinal direction. A paint outflow control body having a suitable number of outflow holes and a slit-shaped inclined surface line outflow hole for gradually narrowing the width from one end to the other end, A roller is installed between the two side plates in the hood that is swingably fitted in the front-rear direction via a swing lever and is swingably supported between the rear end sides of both side plates of the frame. So that the axis of the is located slightly forward of the position just below the outlet of the floating box. , A line puller which is rotatably supported.

As shown in FIG. 8, this hood has a roller 18 on a hood 53, and a leveling brush 42 and a finishing brush 43 are provided close to each other on the rear part of the hood. ing.

[0007]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in the line puller, as shown in FIG. 8, the configuration of the coating portion coated with a sponge pad or the like is such that the leveling brush 42 and the finishing brush 43 are provided behind the rollers. Although it is effective in homogenizing the surface of the coated paint, it positively defines the edge (gradient and linearity with respect to the thickness of the boundary between the coated part and the non-coated part) that is the life of the coating line. There is a problem that it is difficult to adjust the thickness of the coating film.

That is, the leveling brush 42 provided on the rear side of the roller is composed of a so-called brush in which a number of bristle members are planted, and the subsequent finishing brush 43 is also used for the leveling. The brush is made of the same material as the brush 42, and when a line is drawn with the hood configured in this way, a certain amount of paint is supplied by first applying it with the roller 18, and this paint is applied evenly. Since the brush 42 is used to evenly level the surface, if the road surface has irregularities, a shortage of paint will occur and uneven coating will occur.

Further, even when the finishing brush 43 is used for finishing, when a paint shortage occurs, not only the paint cannot be sufficiently supplied not only on the coating surface but also on the edge portion. The brushes for use 43 are both brushes and are provided in contact with the road surface, and since the distance between them is extremely close, it is not possible to store the required amount of paint between them, so that the finish Since the paint brush 43 is not supplied with a sufficient amount of paint, the jagged edges cannot be corrected and therefore the edges cannot be clearly embodied.

Further, when drawing a line, when the surface is an inclined surface, it is necessary to switch the lever for each inclined surface, which is not preferable in operation.

Therefore, the present inventor has made various studies to solve the above-mentioned problems, and as a result, not only can the line be easily drawn on the road surface or floor surface without any jagged edges, but also on the inclined road surface. We have found that line drawing can be done without any special operation when drawing lines on floors, floors, etc., and the present invention has been made here. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a line puller which is a compact device and can easily draw a clean line without jaggedness.

[0012]
