Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to glass and ceiling,
The present invention relates to a dew removal tool for removing dew attached to a wall or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a dew removing device for removing dew formed on glass or the like, there has been a dew removing device disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Registration No. 3034288. This dew-condensation implement was provided with a wiper body for removing dew condensation and a cylindrical gripper serving also as a water storage tank for storing the dew condensation scraped off by the wiper body. The wiper body had a front end opened, and a spatula member for removing dew was provided on the front end edge of the bottom surface. A water pipe was provided in communication with the closed rear end of the wiper body, and a small hole was provided at the rear end of the water pipe via a funnel-shaped part. The holding body is detachably fitted to the water pipe.

[0003]

However, in the case of the above-mentioned prior art, the gripping body is made exclusively, so that the cost is high. And because of its small content, it was not possible to store a large amount of dew. On the other hand, plastic bottles such as plastic bottles containing commercially available beverages are light and durable, but once used, there is no use,
There was no use other than discarding it as it was or cutting it and using it for work etc.

[0004] The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the conventional art, and has as its object to provide an inexpensive dew-dropping tool with a simple structure.

[0005]

According to the present invention, there is provided a spatula made of a member such as rubber which is brought into contact with a glass surface, a main body having an opening provided with the spatula, and an opening of the main body. This is a dew condensation tool provided with a water pipe formed on the opposite side and an engaging portion formed in the water pipe and capable of fitting into a spout of a bottle made of a commercially available resin or the like. On the inner peripheral surface of the water pipe, a funnel-shaped tapered surface which is inclined toward the bottle to be attached and whose center is close to the tip opening of the water pipe is formed on the entire circumference, and the center of the tapered surface is formed. The portion is provided with a through hole.

[0006] In the dew condensation tool of the present invention, a commercially available bottle is fitted to an engaging portion of a water pipe formed in the main body. As a result, dewed water that has been scraped off by the spatula flows and accumulates in the bottle.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIGS. 1 to 7 show a dew-dropping device 10 of this embodiment. A main body 12 of the dew-dropping device 10 is a wide member having a bottom portion 14 formed in a U-shaped cross section, and has a rectangular shape on an upper surface. An opening 16 is formed. A flexible rubber spatula member 18 is attached in parallel to one long side of the opening 16, and the cross-sectional shape of the spatula member 18 is a triangular shape with an acute angle at the tip as shown in FIG. It is curved. The other long side of the opening 16 is formed with a curve such that the central portion is high and both sides are low.

The bottom portion 14 is formed in a tapered shape in a direction away from the opening portion 16 toward the center portion, and a cylindrical water pipe 20 is provided at the center portion so as to communicate therewith. Water pipe 2
A female screw 22 that is screwed into a spout of a commercially available plastic bottle is formed as an engaging portion on the inner peripheral surface near the leading end of the zero.

As shown in FIG. 4, a tapered surface 2 is formed on the inner peripheral surface of
4 is formed on the entire circumference, and the tapered surface 24 is provided in a funnel shape near the center of the water pipe 20 near the tip of the water pipe 20, and a through hole 26 is provided in the center of the tapered surface 24.

Next, a method of using the dew-condensing device 10 will be described. First, the female screw 22 of the dew condensation tool 10 is screwed into a male screw formed at a spout of a plastic bottle 28 such as a plastic bottle and fixed. When the spatula portion 18 is slid upward from below while holding the plastic bottle 28 while making contact with the glass of the window or the door, dew condensation generated on the glass falls from the spatula member 18 to the inside of the main body 12. The water is collected on the tapered surface 24 through the slope of the bottom 14, passes through the through-hole 26, and further falls through the water pipe 20 into the plastic bottle 28 to be collected.

According to the dew condensation tool 10 of this embodiment,
Since it has a simple structure and uses a commercially available plastic bottle 28 for the water storage section, it is not necessary to make a water storage tank dedicated to the dew-condensing device 10, and it is small and inexpensive. Then, the used plastic bottle 28 from which the beverage or the like of the content has been dispensed can be reused without being discarded, and is economical and has little effect on the environment. The plastic bottle 28 is durable and long-lasting, light and has various sizes, so that it can be replaced according to the application.

Further, since the collected dew water accumulates inside the plastic bottle 28 having a large capacity, it is not necessary to frequently discard the water during the dew-removing operation, and the working efficiency is good. When the dew on the glass or wall at a low position is dewed, even if the plastic bottle 28 and the dew-condenser 10 are tilted, the water accumulated in the plastic bottle 28 can be removed from the tapered surface 24.
It is not easy to flow backward, which is convenient.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. Here, the same members as those in the above-described embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted. In the dew condensation tool 30 of this embodiment, a cylindrical water pipe 20 is provided in communication with a central portion of the bottom portion 14, and an internal thread 22 screwed into a commercially available plastic bottle is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the water pipe 20. Are formed.

According to the dew condensation device 30 of this embodiment,
It has almost the same effect as the above embodiment, and no protrusion such as a tapered surface is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the water pipe 20, the structure is simple, and the manufacturing cost is low.

Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. Here, the same members as those in the above-described embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted. In the dew condensation tool 32 of this embodiment, a cylindrical water pipe 20 is provided in communication with a central portion of the bottom portion 14.
The bottom portion 14 further projects around the inside of the water pipe 20,
At this edge of the bottom portion 14, a locking portion 34 that protrudes outward parallel to the water pipe 20 is provided around the circumference.

The method of mounting the dew-condenser 32 of this embodiment is as follows.
And put the edge of the spout into the water pipe 20 and the locking part 3.
Insert between 4 and lock.

According to the dew condensation device 32 of this embodiment,
It has almost the same effect as the above embodiment, and the connection of the plastic bottle 28 is simple because the spout of the plastic bottle is only inserted between the water pipe 20 and the locking portion 34.

The dew-collecting device of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The water pipe may be a nozzle extending inside the spout other than the one covering the outside of the spout of the plastic bottle. Occasionally, the dew tool is funnel shaped. For example, this nozzle may be a long one reaching the inside of the plastic bottle main body, or may be short as the tapered surface shown in the first embodiment. Further, the engaging portion of the dew-condensation tool can be freely designed other than the female screw, such as a step portion and a packing.

[0019]

The dew-condensation device of the present invention is removably attached to a commercially available bottle, and the bottle is used as a water storage tank and a handle. In addition, dew can be easily and reliably collected, and the cost is low.
