Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a device for removing lint and the like generated during washing by suspending a net bag on a float and floating it inside a washing machine.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, in the above-mentioned washing machine lint removal device, the float is made of soft synthetic resin and is a flat hollow ball with an upper surface close to the horizontal surface.
When the water hits the floating upper surface, it creates splashes, and some of the droplets fly out to the outside of the washing tub, causing a problem in that they wet the clothes and floor of the person using the washing machine.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

In order to solve the problems in the above-mentioned prior art, this invention
This is a washing machine lint removal device with an improved float shape.

[Means to solve the problem]

This invention relates to a washing machine lint removal device in which lint is removed by suspending a net bag on a float and floating it inside the washing machine during washing, in which the upper surface of the float is sloped. be.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings. As shown in FIG. Attach valve 2 to the center of the bottom of float 1.

The net bag 3 is an inverted circular bag made of a mesh fabric material such as nylon that drains easily, and is attached to a frame 4 so that the opening is kept open at all times, and an integral fastening plate 5 is passed over the frame 4. A required notch hole or the like is provided in the center of this retaining plate 5 so that the neck of the former valve 2 can be freely inserted into and removed from it.

To use the washing machine lint removal device constructed as described above, fill the float 1 with air from the valve 2, fit the neck of the valve 2 into the retaining plate 5, and throw the laundry into the water inside the washing machine. For example, thread waste generated from the laundry gradually accumulates in the mesh bag 3 as the washing progresses, and is removed as appropriate.

Note that the float 1 is not limited to the body shape, but may have a gable roof shape, or as shown in FIG. There are multiple places where it can be fitted and removed.

Furthermore, the float 1 need not be a floating bladder, but may be made of hollow synthetic resin, foamed synthetic resin, or any other material with buoyancy.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As is clear from the above explanation, in this invention, even if the float 1 comes directly below the water supply, the upper surface of the float 1 is a slope with a curved surface.
The energy of the water supply is reduced and it is difficult to turn into droplets, but even if it becomes droplets,
Since the supplied water hits the slope of the upper surface of the float 1, the water becomes droplets whose direction is changed in the horizontal direction according to the angle of the slope, and therefore cannot become droplets flying out from the upper edge of the washing tub.

Therefore, there is no chance that clothes or the floor will get wet due to droplets of water hitting the top surface of the float 1, unlike in the conventional case.

The net bag 3 suspended from the float 1 is constantly floating slightly below the water surface with the rim open due to the frame 4, so that the eddy current flowing into the washing tub from the rim is channeled through the mesh to remove only water. It passes through and reliably captures thread waste, etc.

In addition, the shape of the float is not limited to the circular shape, as mentioned above, it can also be a square shape, a gabled shape, or a donut shape with a ring-like ridge on the top.
In addition, the function and effect are not limited to the swim bladder, but can be made of hollow synthetic resin, foamed synthetic resin, or other buoyant materials.
