Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an ultrasonic oscillation device intended for cleaning small household items such as dentures, nursing nipples, jewelry, and eyeglasses, and is mainly intended for use at home. It is something.

Conventionally, there are various types of ultrasonic cleaners depending on the objects to be cleaned.
In either case, an ultrasonic vibrator is attached to the bottom of a fixed cleaning tank, and ultrasonic vibrations are applied to the liquid in the cleaning tank from the bottom. Since the tank is fixed to the device and cannot be removed, it is inconvenient to drain the liquid, and although the amount of cleaning liquid is small, there is also a problem with cooling due to the heat generated by vibration. , Glasses cleaning house 1
In the case of small ultrasonic cleaners for household use, the present invention is not suitable for practical use because the cleaning container must be removed individually and replaced depending on the object to be cleaned. An ultrasonic vibrator is attached to the lid of the container to make it easy to attach and remove the cleaning container as appropriate, and has a length of 4 where ultrasonic vibrations are applied from the top to the liquid in the cleaning container.

That is, a container stand on which a cleaning container is placed is connected to a main body containing an ultrasonic oscillator, and a container lid that can be freely fitted and removed from the cleaning container on the container table is installed. When an ultrasonic transducer electrically connected to the ultrasonic oscillator is attached to the inner bottom mJ of the transducer storage case provided and the container lid is covered, the bottom part of the transducer storage case or the container stand This is a small ultrasonic cleaning device that is characterized by being immersed in a liquid in a cleaning container located at the second location.

The present invention will be described below with reference to each embodiment. In Figures 1 and 2, a container stand (2) on which a cleaning container (7) is fitted and placed is placed on the upper part of the main body (]) containing an ultrasonic oscillator.
At the same time, a support body (3) is installed which serves as a fulcrum and supports a part of the container lid (4) which is opened and closed by lifting up.

A transducer storage case (5) is attached to the container lid (4), and an ultrasonic transducer (6) electrically connected to the ultrasonic oscillator in the main body (1) is attached to the inner bottom surface of the case.

Since it is configured in this way, as shown in Fig. 2, the liquid (
Place the cleaning container (7) containing 8) on the container stand (2),
When the container lid (4) is closed to cover the cleaning container (7), the bottom part of the transducer storage case (5) in which the ultrasonic transducer (6) is attached is exposed to the liquid (7) in the cleaning container (7). 8) Immersed in.

Therefore, when the ultrasonic vibrator (6) is excited, the objects to be cleaned, such as dentures, jewelry, glasses, etc., present in the liquid (8) are cleaned by the ultrasonic vibrations applied from above.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a support (3) for a container lid (4) that can be lifted up, opened and closed is provided on the top of the main body (1), and container stands (2) are arranged side by side on the side of the main body. As shown in FIG. 4, the height of the cleaning container (7) is lowered, which impairs the safety of the entire apparatus.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a support (3) installed on the upper part of the main body (1) slides downward as a guide so that the container lid (4) can move up and down. 9) supports a part of the container lid (4), and the container stand (2) is provided on the top of the main body (1). It has the advantage that it can be adapted to the cleaning container (7). Therefore, the cleaning container (7) can be specialized depending on the object to be cleaned, such as dentures or glasses.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 7, container stands (2) are arranged side by side on the side of the main body (1), and a sliding body (9) that slides up and down is guided by a support (3) provided on the side of the main body (1). ) supports a part of the container lid (4) to raise and lower the container lid (4),
It is possible to use a plurality of cleaning containers (7) of different heights in a stable state.

The embodiment shown in FIG. 8 is a sliding body (1) that supports a container lid (4).
The container lid (4) is raised and lowered by means of a vertical sliding column (10) vertically installed as a guide.
By lengthening the sliding support CII), it is possible to accommodate a plurality of cleaning containers (7) having different heights and widths.

Next, each embodiment of the container lid portion shown in FIGS. 9 to 12 will be described. In Fig. 9, a transducer storage case (5) made of metal such as stainless steel or aluminum has an ultrasonic transducer (6) glued to its internal bottom via an insulator (10), and the upper opening end is made of rubber. The ultrasonic vibration mounted on the bottom of the transducer storage case (5) is fitted into the fitting body (12) protruding inside the container lid (4) with a vibration isolator (13) interposed therebetween. The vibrations generated by the child (6) are blocked by the vibration isolator (14) and are not transmitted to the container lid (4), but are efficiently propagated into the liquid (8). ) is immersed in the liquid (8), so the heat generated by vibration is water-cooled, and the vibration isolating material (thickness or panogink) is used. ) Prevents water from entering the interior and is extremely safe to use.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 10, the transducer storage case (5) is composed of a medium-hard comb and a polymer layer such as resin, and the upper open end is a fitting body that protrudes inside the container lid (4). (12) has the advantage that it can be directly attached to the ultrasonic vibrator (6) and can also be used as a vibration isolator.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 11, the transducer storage case (5) made of a polymer phase is attached to the entire inner surface of the container lid (4), and the shape of the container lid (4) is simplified. This is advantageous in improving assembly efficiency.

In the embodiment shown in FIG.
) is coated with a polymer material such as rubber, the electric wire portion is made to protrude, and this protrusion (14) is inserted into the fitting body (12) that protrudes inside the container lid (4). , the covering and the protrusion (J4) have a vibration-proofing effect, especially the protrusion (14)
) Since it is thin, it is easy to dampen vibrations, and since most of it is immersed in liquid (8), it has a remarkable cooling effect, and it is safe without any dangers in the city.

As described above, the present invention has an ultrasonic vibrator attached to the container lid so as to prevent vibration loss, and efficiently vibrates ultrasonic waves from above in line with the object to be cleaned in the liquid in the cleaning container. It is a device that can be cleaned efficiently by adding a It can be used for.
