Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cleaning tool for cleaning by utilizing the inertia of an object. The cleaning tool of the present invention, in particular,
For example, it is suitable for cleaning the inside of an object to be cleaned having a complicated internal shape such as a bottle and a plastic container.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for cleaning the inside of a container having a complicated internal shape such as a bottle and a plastic container, a brush with a long handle is generally used. I couldn't drop it.

As another conventional cleaning means, there is an ultrasonic cleaning machine or the like. According to this, more effective cleaning can be performed than the brush and the like. However, ultrasonic cleaning machines and the like have the problem of being expensive.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and is a cheap and easy-to-clean cleaning tool for cleaning dirt even in a container having a complicated internal shape. It is intended to be provided.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, a cleaning tool according to the present invention is characterized in that a weight is provided inside a cleaning abrasive body having an arbitrary shape and size. Is. The polishing body can be made of, for example, a sponge material, a polishing cloth, a metal scrubber, or steel wool.

[0006]

[Function] Put an arbitrary number (for example, about 5 to 10) of cleaning tools in the body to be cleaned such as a container, add an appropriate amount of water and detergent, shake the container, etc., and the cleaning tool will be washed by the inertia of the weight. The abrasive body is strongly pressed against the inner wall surface of the container etc. and moves in sliding contact, scrubs the dirt to every corner and cleans it thoroughly.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view A, a vertical sectional view B and a horizontal sectional view C showing one embodiment of a cleaning tool according to the present invention. In the cleaning tool of this embodiment, a metal is provided inside a cleaning abrasive 1 having a three-dimensional quadrangular shape (although a cubic shape is shown in the drawing) made of a sponge material and having an arbitrary size. It has a built-in weight 2.

The size of the polishing body 1 is formed into a plurality of sizes such as 5 mm to 50 mm square, and the size of the body 3 to be cleaned (see FIG. 2) such as a container to be cleaned depends on the volume and the like. As will be described later, it is configured to be appropriately selected and used.
The size, weight and shape of the weight 2 provided in the polishing body 1 are
The size is appropriately set according to the size of the polishing body 1.

The polishing body 1 of the embodiment is composed of divided blocks 1A and 1B which are divided into two blocks.
A weight 2 is sandwiched between 1B, both blocks are pressed against each other and bonded with an adhesive 4 to form a cleaning tool.

The cleaning tool of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is constructed as described above, and as shown in FIG. 2, a plurality of cleaning tools (for example, about 5 to 10 pieces) of different sizes such as a container are used. The cleaning tool is put in the object to be cleaned 3, and an appropriate amount of water W and detergent is added to the object to be cleaned, and the container is shaken up and down and to the left and right. It moves around while being strongly pressed against the inner wall surface and scrubs the inner wall surface thoroughly and thoroughly to clean it. During this operation, the impact force of the weight 2 is not buffered by the spongy material of the polishing body 1 and is not directly applied to the inner wall surface of the container or the like. Therefore, even a glass container or the like is damaged during cleaning. There is no fear of doing so. The cleaning tool is used repeatedly.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view A and a vertical sectional view showing another embodiment of the cleaning tool according to the present invention. The cleaning tool of the present embodiment is a cylindrical cleaning abrasive 1 made of a sponge material.
The weight 2 made of metal is embedded in the inside of the. Since other configurations and usages are the same as those of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the same components are designated by the same reference numerals and the description thereof will be omitted.

FIG. 4 is a partially cutaway side view A and side view B showing different embodiments of the cleaning tool according to the present invention.
Here, A is the cleaning abrasive body 1 formed in a spherical shape, and B is a hexagonal shape. Other configurations and the like are the same as those in the above-described embodiment, and are therefore denoted by the same reference numerals. The shape of the polishing body 1 is not limited to that shown in the figure, and may be, for example, a conical shape, a triangular conical shape, or any other three-dimensional shape.

FIG. 5 is an explanatory view showing a method of using the cleaning tool according to the present invention, which is different from that shown in FIG. In FIG. 5, a plurality of cleaning tools having different shapes and sizes of the polishing body 1 are put in a body 3 to be cleaned such as a container, an appropriate amount of water W and a detergent are added thereto, and the container is shaken for cleaning as described above. To do. According to this method, the dirt can be scraped off by the polishing body 1 of the cleaning tool that conforms to the internal shape of the container or the like, so that the cleaning can be performed more cleanly. The method of using the cleaning tool according to the present invention is not limited to the above method.

FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing still another embodiment of the cleaning tool according to the present invention. In the cleaning tool of this embodiment, the cleaning abrasive body 1 is composed of a polishing cloth 11, the weight 2 is wrapped with the polishing cloth 11 and wound in a roll shape, and an appropriate portion of the cloth 11 is bonded with an adhesive. Has become. The cleaning tool of this embodiment is configured as described above and is used in the same manner as in the above embodiments. The constituent material of the polishing body 1 can be arbitrarily adopted, such as a metal scrubber, steel wool and the like.

[0015]

According to the present invention, it is possible to mass-produce inexpensively, and it is possible to easily and cleanly clean objects to be cleaned such as various containers having a complicated internal shape.
