Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cleaning tool having a structure in which dust such as carpet is adhered to and removed from the surface of the adhesive tape by rotating the adhesive tape wound in a roll. .

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a cleaning tool using such an adhesive tape has been known. However, in the conventional case, cuts such as perforation lines are provided on the adhesive tape wound in a roll shape, and if dust adheres to the adhesive surface of the adhesive tape, the part with the dust is cut off at the cut. After removing it, the next new adhesive surface is exposed and used.

[0003]

A conventional cleaning tool using such a conventional adhesive tape has the trouble that the dirty portion of the adhesive tape must be separated and removed every time dust adheres to the adhesive tape. Furthermore, extremely unhygienic work is required, in which the adhesive tape that is not contaminated with dust and must be handled must be disposed of with bare hands. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning tool that can be used while automatically winding a dirty portion of an adhesive tape.

[0004]

In order to achieve the above object, the cleaning tool of the present invention comprises a lower roller for mounting an adhesive tape wound in a roll shape on the lower part of a supporting rod having a grip portion, and an adhesive. An upper roller on which a used core tube of the tape is mounted is provided in parallel with the upper and lower sides in a rotatable manner. It is designed to urge elastically so that it will always contact at an appropriate pressure.

[0005]

The roll-shaped adhesive tape is attached to the lower roller, the core cylinder is attached to the upper roller, and the starting end of the adhesive tape is fixed to the core cylinder so that the tape can be wound. Then, while holding the grip portion and bringing the adhesive tape into contact with the floor surface, it is rotated in the front-back direction so that dirt such as dust is attached to the adhesive tape and removed. At this time, since the core cylinder of the upper roller is always in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the adhesive tape with an appropriate pressure, it rotates integrally with the adhesive tape regardless of the change in the diameter of the adhesive tape, and dust is attached to the dirt. The used part can be automatically wound up on the core tube.

The horizontal rod portion 9b has a flat portion 9a formed on the lower surface of the upper horizontal rod portion 1a of the support rod 1, and a vertical rod portion 9c bent at a right angle from the horizontal rod portion 9b. The flat portion 9a is provided with a bifurcated engagement groove 10 and a guide slot 11 which are open at the tip. As shown in FIG. 4, the auxiliary support rod 9 is fitted with a guide elongated hole 11 of the flat portion 9a to a screw hole 12 formed in the upper horizontal rod portion 1a of the support rod 1 and fastened with a screw 13. Engagement groove 1
It is assembled to the support rod 1 by aligning 0 with the screw insertion hole 14 penetrating the upper horizontal rod portion 1a and tightening with the screw 15 and the wing nut 16.

Reference numerals 17 and 17 denote a vertical rod portion 9c of the auxiliary supporting rod 9.
The fitting body is made of synthetic resin and is attached to the. As shown in FIG. 4, the fitting bodies 17 and 17 are attached to the vertical rod portion 9c by fitting the insertion holes 18 and 18 penetrating in the vertical direction into the vertical rod portion 9c. Also, the fittings 17, 1
The lower horizontal rod 1c of the support rod 1 and the end portions of the movable support rod 3 are fitted into blind fitting holes 19 provided at the center of the support rod 7 to support the lower horizontal rod 9c and the movable support rod 3. At the same time, the horizontal movement of the upper and lower rollers 5 and 6 is suppressed.

Numerals 20 and 20 are coil springs as elastic urging members, which are between the stopper 21 fixed to the vertical rod 1b of the support rod 1 and the cylindrical portion 4 of the movable support rod 3 and the auxiliary support rod. They are mounted between the stopper 22 fixed to the vertical rod portion 9c of 9 and the fitting body 17, respectively. The upper roller 6 can always contact the outer peripheral surface of the adhesive tape 7 with an appropriate pressure by elastically urging the coil springs 20, 20. Reference numeral 23 is a plug body fitted to the lower end of the vertical rod portion 9c to prevent the fitting body 17 from falling off.

Next, the use of the cleaning tool of the present invention thus constructed will be described. First, loosen the screws 13 and 15 and the wing nut 16 that fasten the flat portion 9a of the auxiliary support rod 9 and slide the auxiliary support rod 9 as shown by the chain line in FIG. Remove from Then, the auxiliary support rod 9 is rotated about the screw 13 as a fulcrum as shown by the chain line in FIG.

After that, the auxiliary support rod 9 is returned to the original position, and the screw 13 and the screw 15 and the wing nut 16 are tightened, respectively, and used.

When the grip portion 2 is gripped and the adhesive tape 7 is moved back and forth while contacting the floor surface, dust on the floor surface adheres to the surface of the adhesive tape 7 for cleaning. At this time, when the adhesive tape 7 is rotated forward (in the direction of arrow A in FIG. 5), the adhesive tape 7 is sequentially placed on the core cylinder 8 of the upper roller 6 with the adhesive surface 7a on which dust is adhered inside as shown in FIG. When the adhesive tape 7 is wound up and reversely rotated backward, the adhesive tape 7 wound around the core tube 8 is rewound onto the adhesive tape 7, so that the adhesive tape 7 has a capability of adhering dust. Can be used repeatedly.

It should be noted that even if the winding diameter (diameter) of the adhesive tape 7 is gradually reduced, and conversely the winding diameter of the lower roller 5 is gradually increased, the upper roller 6 is elastically repulsed by the coil springs 20 and 20 as shown in FIGS. As shown in FIG. 5, since the outer peripheral surface of the adhesive tape 7 is constantly kept in contact with it at an appropriate pressure, the rotational movement of the adhesive tape 7 is smoothly performed and dust can be continuously adhered. Then, when the adhesive tape 7 attached to the lower roller 6 is used up, the auxiliary support rod 9 is rotated in the same manner as in the above-described operation, and the adhesive tape 7 is used up from the upper roller 6.
Is removed, the core cylinder 8 of the lower roller 5 is transferred to the upper roller 6, and a new adhesive tape 7 is attached to the lower roller 5 in preparation for the next use.
