As shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, the main body A1 has a water guide pipe section 1a to which one end of a hose 17 whose other end is attached to a water tap (not shown) is attached. . A through hole 1b is formed integrally in a direction orthogonal to the water guide pipe 1a. The push pin A is inserted into the through hole 1b and the hole 2b of the main body B2 (see FIG. 10).
9, a water supply switching operation member comprising a switching load 10 and a push pin B11 is attached, and by operating the water supply switching operation member, the water supply is switched without operating a water tap (to the sponge 15 or the brush 18 side). Water supply or not). The outer peripheral portion of the through-hole portion 1b has an engaging hole portion 2c when the main body B2 is mounted.
(See FIG. 10B).

The main body A1 has a hole 1c for guiding the liquid detergent through the liquid outlet 3a of the liquid container 3 downward (to the sponge 15 or the brush 18 side).
At the lower end of the hole 1c, there is formed an engaging portion 1d into which an engaging hole 7b of the lid 7 having a plurality of holes 7a is fitted as shown in FIG. The engaging portion 1d is formed on the inner side (FIG. 8) so that the lid 7 can be easily fitted.
(The direction of the arrow in (b)). The lid 7 has a retaining portion at this portion.

Further, the main body A1 has a hook portion 1e having a function of holding the main body B2 on the main body A1.
By attaching the main body B2 as described later,
The hook portion 1e has a rising portion 2d of the main body B2 (see FIG. 10).

Finally, the liquid container 3 is inserted into the hole 2e of the main body B2.
Is mounted, the holding cap 4 is placed on the liquid container 3, and the claw 4a of the holding cap 4 and the three engaging grooves 2a provided on the main body B2 are engaged.

FIG. 5 schematically shows the above steps, whereby the cleaning apparatus shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 is completed.

Next, a description will be given of a method of using the cleaning device in which the liquid container 3 is filled with a liquid detergent for car washing and the sponge 15 is attached to the main body A1 for car washing.

The sponge 15 shown in FIG. 2 and the like has a through hole 15a at a position corresponding to the liquid outlet 3a of the liquid container 3.
However, this is suitable when a liquid wax is used. When a liquid detergent is used as in this case, the sponge 15 has a through hole 1.
It is preferable to use the one without the through hole 5a. Here, the description will be made assuming that the one without the through hole 15a is attached.

First, the water supply switching operation member is set on the side opposite to that in FIG. 3 (in a state where the pushing pin B11 protrudes to the outside as shown in FIG. 1).
However, in this state, the body 10c of the switching road 10 (FIG. 15), which is one of the components of the water supply switching operation member.
(Refer to (b)) is located at a position that closes the water supply passage of the water pipe section 1a, so that no water is supplied to the sponge 15 side. Next, the water supply switching operation member is switched to the state shown in FIG. 3 so that the sponge 15 contains a little water. Then, since the portion of the thin shaft portion 10d (see FIG. 15B) of the switching load 10 comes to the position of the water guide tube portion 1a, water is supplied to the sponge 15 side around the shaft portion 10d. Become. At this time, the main unit A
Due to the function of the lid 7 attached to the bottom surface of the water 1, water is dispersed in the form of a shower on the sponge 15 side, so that the water is efficiently absorbed.

When the water has soaked into the sponge 15 to some extent as described above, the water supply switching operation member is again operated to the state shown in FIG. 1 to stop the water supply to the sponge 15. Then, in order to push out the detergent to the sponge 15 side, the holding cap 4
push. When this pressing force is applied, a small hole 6a formed in the silicone rubber 6 attached to the liquid outlet 3a of the liquid container 3 via the container cap 5 (FIG. 12).
(See (d) and (e)). When the normal pressing force is not applied, the hole 6a is closed and the hermetically sealed state is maintained, and the detergent removes the hole 6a and the hole 1c of the main body A1. Through the sponge 15.

Here, even if the hand is released after pressing the holding cap 4 as described above, the claw 4a of the holding cap 4 and the engaging groove 2 provided in the main body B2 are provided as described above.
Due to the relationship with a and the fact that the liquid container 3 has a bellows shape, the lowermost position when the pressing cap 4 is pressed can be held.

Therefore, for example, not only when the bonnet on the front side of the car is cleaned by the sponge 15 (use in the vertical direction), but also when the side surface or the bottom side of the vehicle body is cleaned (the use direction is Horizontal or directly above)
However, the liquid detergent can be easily pushed out to the sponge 15 side by simply pushing the holding cap 4, and the detergent and water are mixed at the sponge 15 during car washing. The work becomes easier and the work efficiency is greatly improved.

Next, a case where the brush 18 is attached to the main body A1 in place of the sponge 15 to perform car washing will be described.

In this case, first, in order to remove the sponge 15 from the main body A1, a total of eight stop needles 8 are removed.
Thereby, the sponge 15 can be easily removed. Next, in order to attach the brush 18 to the main body A1, the traveling portion 18a (see FIG. 19) of the brush 18 is attached to the holding portion 1h (see FIGS. 8 (a) and 19 (c)) provided in the main body A1. Fit it. Only by performing this operation, the attachment of the brush 18 to the main body A1 is completed (FIG. 19C).
reference).

Thereafter, as in the case of washing the car with the sponge 15, the water supply switching operation member is first set to the position where water supply is cut off, that is, the state shown in FIG.
Run water to 7. Then, the water supply switching operation member is switched to the state shown in FIG. 3 in order to add a little water to the brush 18, and when an appropriate amount of water is attached to the brush 18, the water supply switching operation member is again operated to the state shown in FIG. Stop water supply. Next, press the cap 4 to push the detergent to the brush 18 side.
push. Thereby, the detergent is applied to the brush 18 as described above. Also in this case, even if the pressing force of the pressing cap 4 is released, the relationship between the claw 4a of the pressing cap 4 and the engaging groove 2a provided in the main body B2, and the liquid container 3 has a bellows shape. As a result, the lowermost position of the pressing cap 4 when pressed can be maintained.

Therefore, not only when the hood on the front side of the car is cleaned by the brush 18 (use in the vertical direction), but also when the side surface or the bottom side of the vehicle body is cleaned (the use direction is changed). Horizontal or directly above)
However, the liquid detergent can be easily pushed out to the brush 18 side by simply pushing the holding cap 4,
Further, since the detergent and the water are mixed at the brush 18 at the time of car washing, the work becomes easier and the work efficiency is greatly improved as compared with the conventional cleaning device.

Next, a case will be described in which the liquid container 3 is filled with liquid wax, and the car is waxed using the sponge 15 having the through-hole 15a shown in FIG.

In this case, first, the through hole 15a is formed in the main body A1.
Attach a sponge 15 attached. As is apparent from the above, this method is possible by simply using eight stop needles. Next, the liquid container 3 is removed from the main body B2. This causes the three engagement grooves 2a to slightly bend outward, respectively.
This is possible by pulling out the holding cap 4 upward. Then, the container cap 5 screwed into the liquid container 3 is removed, the liquid container 3 is filled with liquid wax, and the liquid container is attached to the main body B2 again. Next, if the hose 17 is attached, remove it (since water is not required when waxing). In addition, when it is difficult to apply force when working with the grip portion 14 during waxing, or when the handling becomes an obstacle, the grip portion 14 is also removed.

Thus, preparation for waxing is completed.

Next, when applying wax, the sponge 15 is pressed against the surface of the vehicle body, and the holding cap 4 is pressed in this state. As a result, the liquid wax in the liquid container 3 is extruded to the vehicle body through the liquid outlet 3a, the hole 6a of the silicon gum 6, the hole 1c of the main body A1, and the through hole 15a of the sponge 15. . Then, by moving the sponge 15 on the body surface in this state, the liquid wax soaks into the sponge 15,
It can wax the body.

In this case, as described above, even if the hand is released after the pressing cap 4 is pressed, the pressing cap 4
The relationship between the claw portion 4a and the engagement groove portion 2a provided in the main body B2, and the fact that the liquid container 3 has a bellows shape,
It is possible to hold the lowermost position when the pressing cap 4 is pressed.

Therefore, not only when the bonnet on the front side of the car is waxed but also when the side surface is waxed, the liquid can be easily pressed by simply pressing the holding cap 4. Sponge with wax 1
Since it can be extruded to the fifth side, the work becomes easier and the work efficiency is greatly improved as compared with the related art.

In the case of the waxing, when the wax dries after a predetermined time, it is necessary to wipe the wax. In this case, replace the sponge 15 with a new one and wipe it off with the sponge. Work will be done.

As described above, since the liquid agent for cleaning (liquid detergent or liquid wax) to be filled in the liquid container differs between the time of car washing and the time of waxing, by preparing a plurality of refilling liquid containers. , It is more convenient to use.

(Correspondence between the invention and the embodiment) In the above embodiment, the liquid container 3, the holding cap 4, the container cap 5, and the sealing rubber 6 are the same as the container member according to the first aspect of the present invention, but also the main body A1 and the main body B2. The sponge 15 and the brush 18 are also the same as the body member according to the first embodiment.
These correspond to the described cleaning members. Various liquid detergents and liquid waxes also correspond to the liquid agent according to the first aspect.
