Description

本発明は、例えばガラスや建築材料等に機能性溶液等の液剤を塗布したり、フィルムを貼る際に用いられるワイパー兼用の塗布具に関するものである。  The present invention relates to an applicator that also serves as a wiper, for example, when a liquid agent such as a functional solution is applied to glass or a building material, or a film is applied.

従来、例えばガラスに撥水剤や親水剤等のコーティング溶液を均一に塗布する際や、水や汚れ等を拭き取ったりするため、更には、例えばガラスに撥水剤や親水剤等のコーティング溶液を塗布する場合などに用いられる塗布具として、第８図に示すように、把持部２と、前記把持部２の先部に支持される硬質材料からなる薄板状のへら部３とを有し、前記へら部３が前記把持部２に固着される基板部３１と、この基板部３１に所定角度を有して配置されるへら部本体３２とからなり、前記へら部本体３２が基板部３１に対して前記所定角度が小さくなる方向に所定角度だけ回動可能且つ元の所定角度に復帰可能とするばね４により付勢されて支持されているワイパー兼用塗布具１を本発明者において開発した（国際公開番号 ＷＯ２００４／１０５９６２）。
この従来のワイパー兼用塗布具１は、そのまま、或いはへら部３の外周全体に塗布剤を含浸させた布状の塗布部材またはワイピング材５を装着した状態で、第９図に示すように被塗布部材６の表面に沿って移動させ、塗布作業を行う際に、へら部３におけるへら部本体３２が基板部３１に対して所定角度が小さくなる方向に所定角度だけ回動可能且つ元の所定角度位置に復帰可能とするばね４により付勢されていることから、へら部本体３２が把持部２に対して弾性を有することになり、被塗布部材６が例えば自動車ガラスのように曲面を呈していても表面の形状に沿いやすく、所定の付勢力のばね４を用いることにより被塗布部材６に強く押しつけることでへら部本体３２を被塗布部６に強く密着させることが可能であるため重ね塗りをすることなく溶液や塗料を薄く且つ均一に塗布することができる。
ところが、前記従来のワイパー兼用塗布具１は、通常へら部本体３２が基板部３１に対する所定の角度が小さくなる方向に所定角度だけ回動可能且つ元の所定角度位置に復帰可能に付勢されているので、ばね４の付勢力を利用した使い方をするには、把持部２を掴んだ状態で基板部３１をへら部本体３２側へと傾斜させた状態を維持することになり、ワイパー兼用塗布具１は自然と第９図に示す上方向に移動し易くなる。
そのため、移動方向が一方向に限られてしまい、例えば不自然な体制で作業をするのを回避する目的で移動方向を変えるためには、操作を一旦中止して体勢を変えてから再び行う必要が生じ連続した作業が困難であることから、作業が面倒となるばかりか作業面について連続しないので美麗な仕上がりとなりにくい、という問題がある。Conventionally, for example, when a coating solution such as a water repellent or a hydrophilic agent is uniformly applied to glass or to wipe off water or dirt, for example, a coating solution such as a water repellent or a hydrophilic agent is further applied to the glass. As shown in FIG. 8, as an applicator used for application, etc., it has a gripping portion 2 and a thin plate-like spatula portion 3 made of a hard material supported by the tip of the gripping portion 2, The spatula portion 3 is composed of a substrate portion 31 fixed to the grip portion 2 and a spatula portion main body 32 disposed at a predetermined angle on the substrate portion 31, and the spatula portion main body 32 is attached to the substrate portion 31. On the other hand, the inventor has developed a wiper / applicator 1 that is supported by being biased by a spring 4 that can be rotated by a predetermined angle in a direction in which the predetermined angle is reduced and can be returned to the original predetermined angle ( International Publication Number WO2004 / 1 05962).
As shown in FIG. 9, the conventional wiper-use applicator 1 is applied as it is or with a cloth-like application member or wiping material 5 impregnated with an application agent on the entire outer periphery of the spatula 3. When moving along the surface of the member 6 and performing a coating operation, the spatula body 32 in the spatula 3 can be rotated by a predetermined angle in a direction in which the predetermined angle is reduced with respect to the substrate 31 and the original predetermined angle Since it is urged | biased by the spring 4 which can return to a position, the spatula part main body 32 will have elasticity with respect to the holding part 2, and the to-be-coated member 6 is exhibiting a curved surface like an automobile glass, for example. However, it is easy to follow the shape of the surface, and by using the spring 4 having a predetermined biasing force, the spatula portion main body 32 can be strongly adhered to the portion to be coated 6 by being strongly pressed against the member 6 to be coated. Do It can be a solution or paint thinner to and uniformly coated without.
However, the conventional wiper-use applicator 1 is normally urged so that the spatula portion main body 32 can be rotated by a predetermined angle in a direction in which the predetermined angle with respect to the substrate portion 31 is reduced and can be returned to the original predetermined angular position. Therefore, in order to use the biasing force of the spring 4, the state in which the substrate portion 31 is inclined toward the spatula portion main body 32 side while the grip portion 2 is gripped is maintained. The tool 1 naturally becomes easy to move upward as shown in FIG.
Therefore, the movement direction is limited to one direction. For example, in order to change the movement direction in order to avoid working in an unnatural system, it is necessary to stop the operation once, change the posture, and then perform again. Since continuous work is difficult and the work is troublesome, there is a problem that it is difficult to achieve a beautiful finish because the work surface is not continuous.

本発明は、前記問題点を解決するためになされたものであり、把持部と、この把持部の先部に支持される硬質材料からなる薄板状のへら部とを有し、前記へら部が前記把持部に固着される基板部とこの基板部に所定の角度において回動可能に支持されるへら部本体とからなり、前記基板部とへら部本体との間に回動させたへら部本体を元の所定角度位置に復帰可能に付勢するためのばね部材がそれぞれ回動方向毎に個別に且つ前記各ばね部材の何れか一方が作用している場合にはもう一方のばね部材は自由状態にあるように配置されていることを特徴とする。
また、前記基板部とへら部本体との間に回動させたへら部本体を元の所定角度位置に復帰可能に付勢するための一方のばね部材が前記基板部とへら部本体とを軸支するための連結軸に互いに向きを対向させて介装した一対のトーションばねである場合、前記基板部とへら部本体との間に回動させたへら部本体を元の所定角度位置に復帰可能に付勢するための一方のばね部材が前記基板部とへら部本体とを連結軸に介装したトーションばねであって、もう一方のばね部材が一方の遊端を前記へら部本体に固着されるとともにもう一方の遊端を基板部に形成した嵌挿溝に貫通させて基端部を前記基板部に対向して配置された端面く字形の挟みばねである場合、更に、前記へら部の外周に、塗布剤を含浸させる布状の塗布部材またはワイピング材が着脱自在に装着される構成の場合にはより好ましい。
また、前記基板部とへら部本体との間に回動させたへら部本体を元の所定角度位置に復帰可能に付勢するための一方のばね部材が前記基板部とへら部本体とを軸支するための連結軸に互いに向きを対向させて介装した一対のトーションばねである場合、或いは前記基板部とへら部本体との間に回動させたへら部本体を元の所定角度位置に復帰可能に付勢するための一方のばね部材が前記基板部とへら部本体とを連結軸に介装したトーションばねであって、もう一方のばね部材が一方の遊端を前記へら部本体に固着されるとともにもう一方の遊端を基板部に形成した嵌挿溝に貫通させて基端部を前記基板部に対向して配置された端面く字形の挟みばねである場合には、前記基板部とへら部本体とが所定角度位置にあるときには、両側に配置したいずれのばね部材の付勢力も所定の角度位置にある基板部には作用することがなく、従って、使用時には傾斜させる側におけるばね部材だけの付勢力だけが基板部に作用し、反対側に作用するもう一方に傾斜させる側におけるばね部材の付勢力は作用しないので使い勝手がよく、操作も確実である。
更に、前記へら部の外周に、塗布剤を含浸させる布状の塗布部材またはワイピング材が着脱自在に装着される構成とすることにより、使用目的に応じた複数の塗布部材に対して本体は一つで済むとともに、塗布部材を取り外して容易に洗浄することができるうえ、傷んだ場合には塗布部材だけを捨てて本体を継続使用することができて経済的である。The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and has a gripping portion and a thin plate-like spatula portion made of a hard material supported by a tip portion of the gripping portion, and the spatula portion is A spatula body that is pivoted between the base plate and the spatula body, and comprises a base part that is fixed to the gripping part and a spatula body that is rotatably supported by the base part at a predetermined angle. When the spring member for urging the spring to return to the original predetermined angular position is individually provided for each rotation direction and one of the spring members is acting, the other spring member is free. It is arranged to be in a state.
Also, one spring member for biasing the spatula main body rotated between the base plate and the spatula main body so as to return to the original predetermined angular position pivots the base plate and the spatula main body. In the case of a pair of torsion springs that are disposed opposite to each other on the connecting shaft for supporting, the spatula body rotated between the base plate part and the spatula body returns to the original predetermined angular position. One spring member for biasing is a torsion spring in which the base plate portion and the spatula portion main body are interposed on the connecting shaft, and the other spring member fixes one free end to the spatula portion main body. And the other free end is inserted into the insertion groove formed in the base plate portion, and the base end portion is an end face-shaped pinching spring arranged to face the base plate portion. A cloth-like application member or wiping material impregnated with an application agent More preferred in the case of detachably mounted configurations.
Also, one spring member for biasing the spatula main body rotated between the base plate and the spatula main body so as to return to the original predetermined angular position pivots the base plate and the spatula main body. In the case of a pair of torsion springs interposed between the connecting shafts to support each other, or the spatula body rotated between the base plate part and the spatula body to the original predetermined angular position One spring member for energizing so as to be able to return is a torsion spring in which the base plate portion and the spatula portion main body are interposed on the connecting shaft, and the other spring member has one free end on the spatula portion main body. In the case of a pin-shaped pinching spring having an end face that is fixed and has the other free end penetrated through a fitting groove formed in the substrate portion and the base end portion is disposed to face the substrate portion, the substrate When the part and the spatula part body are at a predetermined angular position, they are arranged on both sides The biasing force of the displaced spring member does not act on the base plate portion at a predetermined angular position. Therefore, only the biasing force of the spring member on the side to be tilted acts on the base plate portion during use, and acts on the opposite side. Since the biasing force of the spring member on the side inclined to the other side does not act, it is easy to use and the operation is reliable.
In addition, by adopting a configuration in which a cloth-like application member or wiping material impregnated with an application agent is detachably attached to the outer periphery of the spatula portion, the main body is attached to a plurality of application members according to the purpose of use. In addition, it can be easily cleaned by removing the application member, and when it is damaged, only the application member can be discarded and the main body can be used continuously, which is economical.

本発明の詳細を添付図面に従って説明する。
第１図および第２図は、本発明の好ましい実施の形態を示すものであり、ワイパー兼用の塗布具１は、円柱上の把持部２と、この把持部２の先部に支持される金属や硬質合成樹脂製の材料、好ましくは塗布剤となる水や機能性溶液等を含浸したり溶解したりしない不浸透性材料によって薄板状のへら部３とを有しており、前記へら部３が前記把持部２に固着されるほぼ扇形の基板部３１とこの基板部３１に所定角度を有して配置されるほぼ細長矩形状のへら部本体３２とから構成される。
更に詳しく説明すると、基板部３１の基端部３１１に把持部２の先端部２１が挟持固定されているとともに、基板部３１の先端に設けられた支持板３１ａとへら部本体３２の表面にそれぞれ立設された複数の軸受３１４および３２４に支持される支持軸３３により基板部３１がへら部本体３２に対して回動可能に支持されている。
また、前記支持軸３３には所定の角度を有するトーションばねにより形成される複数のばね部材４１および４２が介装されており、ばね部材４１は基板部３１を中央の所定位置よりも第２図に示すＡ方向に傾動させた際にばね部材４１の付勢力が基板部３１に作用して基板部３１を元の位置に復帰させる方向に作用し、ばね部材４２は基板部３１を中央の所定位置よりも第２図に示すＢ方向に傾動させた際にばね部材４１の付勢力が基板部３１に作用して基板部３１を元の位置に復帰させる方向に作用する。
特に、基板部３１がＡ方向に傾動するとき、対向して配置されたばね部材４２が自由状態になるように、また、基板部３１がＢ方向に傾動するとき、対向して配置されたばね部材４１が自由状態になるようにばね部材４１，４２の開き角度が設定されている。
加えて、へら部３の基板部３１の表面にはファスナ部７１，７２が設けられており、例えばフエルトやパイル（タオル地を含む）地、不織布、マイクロ繊維、樹脂発泡体、紙等、柔軟性を有するとともに、用途によっては塗布剤を一定量含浸することができる材質の布状の塗布部材５が前記ファスナ部７１，７２に係着して手で簡単に着脱可能に取付け可能とされている。
このように構成される本実施の形態は、被塗布部材６の硬さや面積、および塗布する溶液、例えば撥水剤や曇り止め剤等のコーティング溶液等の種類や用途に応じて、適切な素材および厚さ等を有する塗布部材７を選択し、へら部３のファスナ部７１，７２に取り付け、機能性溶液を被塗布部材に塗布する場合には、把持部２４を持って、塗布部材５に溶液を含浸させ、例えば自動車ガラス等の被塗布部材６の表面に沿って塗布具１を動かして、塗布作業を行う。
このとき、第３図（ａ）に示すように、基板部３１とへら部本体３２とが挟みばねからなるばね部材４１とばね部材４２とにより所定角度位置（中立位置）に保持されており、例えば把持部２を第３図（ａ）に示す下方に向けて回動させ第３図（ｂ）に示すようにばね部材４１の付勢力により押しつけて塗布具１をへら部本体３２を被塗布部材６を当接した位置から第３図（ａ）に示す上方または下方に向けてばね部材４１の付勢力により押しつけて塗布具１を前方へ向けて移動させることで塗布作業を行う。
このとき、へら部本体３２にはもう一方のばね部材４２は支持角が開き角を越えているので付勢力は作用せずにトーションばねからなるばね部材４１の付勢力だけが作用して所望の弾性が付与されるため、被塗布部材６が例えば自動車ガラスのように曲面を呈していても、表面の形状に沿いやすく、重ね塗りをすることなく溶液を均一に塗布できる。
そして、第３図（ａ）に示す上方に向けて移動させて作業を行った場合において、一操作が終わって塗布具１を被塗布部材６から離す際には、第３図（ｃ）に示すように把持部２を更に被塗布部材６側に押し続ける方向に移動させて、へら部本体３２に作用しているトーションばねからなるばね部材４１の付勢力を解除しつつ外側端縁を被塗布部材に接触させつつ下方へ移動させて離すことにより、へら部本体３２が内側へ向けて回動しながら最後は外側端縁を被塗布部材６接触させた状態で離すことによりムラを生じることなく塗布具１を離すことができる。
また、第３図（ａ）に示す下方に向けて移動させて作業を行った場合において、一操作が終わって塗布具１を被塗布部材６から離す際には、第３図（ｅ）に示すように把持部２を更に被塗布部材６側に押し続ける方向と反対方向に移動させて、へら部本体３２に作用しているトーションばねからなるばね部材４２の付勢力を解除しつつ外側端縁を被塗布部材に接触させて下方へ移動させて離すことにより、へら部本体３２が内側へ向けて回動しながら最後は外側端縁を被塗布部材６接触させた状態で離すことによりムラを生じることなく塗布具１を離すことができる。
更に、本実施の形態では、前記第３図（ｂ）に示したように把持部２を下方に傾斜させた状態で上方（または下方）に向けて移動しながら、そのままの状態で第３図（ａ）に示した状態を経て、前記第３図（ｃ）に示したように把持部２を上方に傾斜させた状態に位置操作の中で回動可能であり、連続して長い距離にわたって作業をすることができるので、きわめて便利である。
このように、本実施の形態は前記第８図に示した従来の塗装具と異なり、塗装方向を問わずに前後いずれの方向に向けての塗装が可能であるばかりかいずれの方向に向けて塗装した場合にも所定の付勢力によりへら部本体３２が所望の弾性を有して被塗布部材６に当接するので薄くムラなく塗装することができるものである。
尚、本実施の形態では塗布部材５を装着して被塗布部材６を塗装する場合を示したが、塗布部材７の代わりにワイピング材を装着した状態で使用する場合、或いは塗布部材５やワイピング材を装着せずにへら部本体３２そのままあるいはゴムなどにより被覆したへら部本体３２により塗布、拭き取り、フィルム貼りなどとして使用することができることはいうまでもない。
第４図乃至第６図は、本発明の異なる実施の形態を示すものであり、全体の構成は前記実施の形態とほぼ同じく、ワイパー兼用の塗布具１は、円柱上の把持部２と、この把持部２の先部に支持される金属や硬質合成樹脂製の材料、好ましくは塗布剤となる水や機能性溶液等を含浸したり溶解したりしない不浸透性材料によって薄板状のへら部３とを有しており、前記へら部３が前記把持部２に固着されるほぼ扇形の基板部３１とこの基板部３１に所定角度を有して配置されるほぼ細長矩形状のへら部本体３２とから構成される。
更に詳しく説明すると、基板部３１の基端部３１１に把持部２の先端部２１が挟持固定されているとともに、基板部３１の先端部３１２が基板部３１の裏面３１３とへら部本体３２の表面３２１にそれぞれ配置される軸受３２４，３２４，３２４および３１４，３１４に支持される支持軸３３により基板部３１がへら部本体３２に対して回動可能に支持されている。
また、前記支持軸３３には所定の角度を有するトーションばねにより形成されるばね部材４１，４１，４１が介装されており、基板部３１を軸着部側、即ち、所定位置よりも狭くなる方向に傾動させた際にばね部材４１，４１，４１の付勢力が基板部３１に作用して基板部３１を元の位置に復帰させる。特に、各ねじ部材４１は基板部３１とへら部本体３２とが為す所定角度においては付勢力が作用せずに前記所定角度を越えて狭くなった場合に付勢力が生じるような角度のものを選択しておく。
一方、前記基板部３１とへら部本体３２との間には 一方の遊端４２１を前記へら部本体３２に固着されるとともに、もう一方の遊端４２２を基板部３１に形成した嵌挿溝３１５，３１５に貫通させて基端部４２３，４２３を前記基板部３１に対向して配置された端面く字形の挟みばねからなるばね部材４２，４２が配置されている。
この挟みばねからなるばね部材４２は、通常は遊端４２２を基板部３１に形成した嵌挿溝３１５，３１５に貫通させて基板部３１をへら部本体３２に対して所定の角度位置に保持する作用と、基板部３１を所定の角度位置よりも広くなる方向に傾動させた際に付勢力が基板部３１に作用して基板部３１を元の位置に復帰させる作用をする。
加えて、へら部３の基板部３１の表面３１６とへら部本体３２の表面３２１にはファスナ部７１，７２が設けられており、例えばフエルトやパイル（タオル地を含む）地、不織布、マイクロ繊維、樹脂発泡体、紙等、柔軟性を有するとともに、用途によっては塗布剤を一定量含浸することができる材質の布状の塗布部材５が前記ファスナ部７１，７２に係着して手で簡単に着脱可能に取付け可能とされている。
このように構成される本実施の形態は、前記実施の形態とほぼ同様に使用することができ、第７図（ａ）に示すように、基板部３１とへら部本体３２とが挟みばねからなるバネ部材４２より所定角度位置に保持されており、へら部本体３２を被塗布部材６を当接した位置から先端方向（第７図（ａ）に示す上方）に向けて塗布する場合には把持部２を基板部３１とへら部本体３２とのなす角度が狭くなる方向に押しつけて塗布具１を前方または後方へ向けて移動させることで塗布作業を行う。
このとき、へら部本体３２にははさみバネからなるばね部材４２の付勢力は作用せずにトーションばねからなるばね部材４１の付勢力だけが作用して所望の弾性が付与されるため、被塗布部材６が例えば自動車ガラスのように曲面を呈していても、表面の形状に沿いやすく、重ね塗りをすることなく溶液を塗布できる。
そして、第７図（ｂ）に示すように、一操作が終わり把持部２を更に被塗布部材６側に押しつつける方向に移動させて、へら部本体３２に作用しているトーションばねからなるばね部材４１の付勢力を解除しつつ外側端縁を被塗布部材に接触させつつ下方へ移動させて離すことにより、へら部本体３２が内側へ向けて回動しながら最後は外側端縁を被塗布部材６接触させた状態で離すことによりムラを生じることなく塗布具１を離すことができる。
また、へら部本体３２を被塗布部材６に当接した位置から後端方向（第７図（ａ）に示す下方）に向けて塗布する場合には把持部２を基板部３１とへら部本体３２とのなす角度が広くなる方向に回動させて塗布具１を例えば第７図（ｃ）に示すように下方へ向けて移動させることで塗布作業を行う。
このとき、へら部本体３２には挟みばね４２の付勢力だけが作用してトーションばねからなるばね部材４１の付勢力は作用せず挟みばね４２によって所望の弾性がへら部本体３２付与されるため、塗布方向が変わったとしても前記前方へ向けて塗装した場合と同様に好適な弾性を用いて塗装することができるので、従来周知の２方向ばねのように一方の付勢力が他方のばねに逆方向に付加されることがなく、きわめて操作性がよい。
そして、一操作が終わり把持部２４を更に被塗布部材８側に押しつつける方向に移動させて、へら部本体３２に作用している挟みばねからなるばね部材４２の付勢力を解除しつつ外側端縁を被塗布部材に接触させつつ下方へ移動させて離すことにより、へら部本体３２が内側へ向けて回動しながら最後は外側端縁を被塗布部材６に接触させた状態で離すことによりムラを生じることなく塗布具１を離すことができる。
このように、本実施の形態も前記第８図に示した従来の塗装具と異なり、塗装方向を問わずに前後いずれの方向に向けての塗装が可能であるばかりかいずれの方向に向けて塗装した場合にも所定の付勢力によりへら部本体３２が所望の弾性を有して被塗布部材６に当接するので薄くムラなく塗装することができるものである。The details of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 show a preferred embodiment of the present invention. An applicator 1 also used as a wiper includes a gripping part 2 on a column and a metal supported by the tip part of the gripping part 2. Or a thin synthetic resin material, preferably a thin plate-like spatula portion 3 made of an impervious material that does not impregnate or dissolve water or a functional solution as a coating agent. Is composed of a substantially fan-shaped substrate portion 31 fixed to the grip portion 2 and a substantially elongated rectangular spatula body 32 disposed at a predetermined angle on the substrate portion 31.
More specifically, the distal end portion 21 of the grip portion 2 is clamped and fixed to the base end portion 311 of the substrate portion 31, and the support plate 31 a provided at the distal end of the substrate portion 31 and the surface of the spatula portion main body 32 are respectively provided. The substrate portion 31 is rotatably supported with respect to the spatula portion main body 32 by a support shaft 33 supported by a plurality of standing bearings 314 and 324.
Further, a plurality of spring members 41 and 42 formed by torsion springs having a predetermined angle are interposed on the support shaft 33, and the spring member 41 places the base plate portion 31 in the center of FIG. The urging force of the spring member 41 acts on the base plate portion 31 when it is tilted in the direction A shown in FIG. 2 and acts in a direction to return the base plate portion 31 to its original position. When tilted in the direction B shown in FIG. 2 rather than the position, the urging force of the spring member 41 acts on the base plate portion 31 to act to return the base plate portion 31 to the original position.
In particular, when the base plate portion 31 is tilted in the A direction, the spring members 42 arranged to face each other are in a free state, and when the base plate portion 31 is tilted in the B direction, the spring members 41 arranged to face each other. The opening angle of the spring members 41 and 42 is set so that is in a free state.
In addition, fastener portions 71 and 72 are provided on the surface of the substrate portion 31 of the spatula portion 3. For example, felt, pile (including towel cloth) ground, non-woven fabric, microfiber, resin foam, paper, etc. are flexible. In addition, depending on the application, a cloth-like application member 5 made of a material that can be impregnated with a certain amount of the application agent is engaged with the fastener portions 71 and 72 and can be easily attached and detached by hand. .
The present embodiment configured as described above is suitable for the hardness and area of the member to be coated 6 and the type and use of the coating solution such as a coating solution such as a water repellent or anti-fogging agent. When the application member 7 having a thickness and the like is selected and attached to the fastener portions 71 and 72 of the spatula portion 3 and the functional solution is applied to the application member, the holding member 24 is held to the application member 5. The application is performed by impregnating the solution and moving the applicator 1 along the surface of the member 6 to be applied such as automobile glass.
At this time, as shown in FIG. 3 (a), the base plate portion 31 and the spatula portion main body 32 are held at a predetermined angular position (neutral position) by the spring member 41 and the spring member 42 which are sandwiched springs, For example, the gripper 2 is rotated downward as shown in FIG. 3A and pressed by the urging force of the spring member 41 as shown in FIG. The application work is performed by pressing the member 6 forward from the position where the member 6 is in contact with the urging force of the spring member 41 upward or downward as shown in FIG. 3 (a).
At this time, since the support angle of the other spring member 42 exceeds the opening angle on the spatula body 32, only the urging force of the spring member 41 made of a torsion spring is applied without any urging force being applied. Since elasticity is imparted, even if the member 6 to be coated has a curved surface, such as automobile glass, it is easy to follow the shape of the surface, and the solution can be applied uniformly without overcoating.
When the work is performed by moving it upward as shown in FIG. 3 (a), when one operation is finished and the applicator 1 is separated from the member 6 to be applied, FIG. 3 (c) As shown in the figure, the gripping part 2 is further moved in the direction of continuing to push the coated member 6 side, and the outer edge is covered while releasing the urging force of the spring member 41 composed of the torsion spring acting on the spatula body 32. When the spatula body 32 is rotated inward while being in contact with the coating member, the spatula portion main body 32 is rotated inward, and finally the outer edge is separated in the state of being in contact with the coated member 6, thereby causing unevenness. The applicator 1 can be released without any problem.
Further, when the work is performed by moving it downward as shown in FIG. 3 (a), when one operation is finished and the applicator 1 is separated from the member 6 to be applied, FIG. As shown in the figure, the gripping part 2 is further moved in the direction opposite to the direction in which the gripping part 2 continues to be pressed, and the outer end is released while releasing the urging force of the spring member 42 consisting of the torsion spring acting on the spatula part main body 32. The edge is brought into contact with the member to be coated, moved downward, and released, so that the spatula main body 32 rotates inward while the outer edge is finally released in a state of being in contact with the member to be coated. The applicator 1 can be released without causing any problems.
Furthermore, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3 (b), the grip 2 is tilted downward and moved upward (or downward), while the state shown in FIG. After passing through the state shown in FIG. 3 (a), the gripper 2 can be rotated during the position operation in a state where the grip portion 2 is inclined upward as shown in FIG. 3 (c), and continuously over a long distance. It is very convenient because you can work.
Thus, this embodiment differs from the conventional coating tool shown in FIG. 8 in that it can be applied in either the front or rear direction regardless of the direction of application, and in any direction. Even when the coating is applied, the spatula portion main body 32 has a desired elasticity and abuts against the member to be coated 6 by a predetermined urging force, so that the coating can be made thin and uniform.
In the present embodiment, the case where the coating member 5 is mounted and the coated member 6 is applied is shown. However, when the wiping material is used instead of the coating member 7, the coating member 5 or the wiping is used. Needless to say, the spatula body 32 can be used for application, wiping, film sticking, or the like, without using any material.
FIGS. 4 to 6 show different embodiments of the present invention. The overall configuration is substantially the same as that of the above-described embodiment, and the wiper and applicator 1 includes a gripping portion 2 on a cylinder, A thin plate-like spatula portion made of a metal or a hard synthetic resin material supported by the tip of the gripping portion 2, preferably an impervious material that does not impregnate or dissolve water or a functional solution as a coating agent. 3 and a substantially fan-shaped substrate portion 31 to which the spatula portion 3 is fixed to the grip portion 2, and a substantially elongated rectangular-shaped spatula body disposed at a predetermined angle on the substrate portion 31. 32.
More specifically, the distal end portion 21 of the grip portion 2 is sandwiched and fixed to the base end portion 311 of the substrate portion 31, and the distal end portion 312 of the substrate portion 31 is connected to the back surface 313 of the substrate portion 31 and the surface of the spatula body 32. The substrate portion 31 is rotatably supported with respect to the spatula portion main body 32 by support shafts 33 supported by bearings 324, 324, 324, and 314, 314 respectively disposed at 321.
The support shaft 33 is provided with spring members 41, 41, 41 formed by torsion springs having a predetermined angle, so that the base plate portion 31 is narrower than the predetermined position, that is, the predetermined position. When tilted in the direction, the urging force of the spring members 41, 41, 41 acts on the substrate portion 31 to return the substrate portion 31 to its original position. In particular, each screw member 41 has such an angle that an urging force is generated when the urging force is not applied at a predetermined angle formed by the base plate portion 31 and the spatula portion main body 32 and is narrowed beyond the predetermined angle. Select it.
On the other hand, between the base plate portion 31 and the spatula portion main body 32, one free end 421 is fixed to the spatula portion main body 32, and the other free end 422 is formed in the base plate portion 31. , 315, and spring members 42, 42 formed of end face-shaped pinching springs arranged so that the base end portions 423, 423 are opposed to the substrate portion 31.
The spring member 42 made of a pinch spring normally holds the base plate portion 31 at a predetermined angular position with respect to the spatula portion main body 32 by allowing the free end 422 to pass through fitting grooves 315 and 315 formed in the base plate portion 31. When the substrate part 31 is tilted in a direction wider than a predetermined angular position, the urging force acts on the substrate part 31 to return the substrate part 31 to the original position.
In addition, fastener portions 71 and 72 are provided on the surface 316 of the substrate portion 31 of the spatula portion 3 and the surface 321 of the spatula portion main body 32. For example, felt, pile (including towel cloth) ground, nonwoven fabric, microfiber, A cloth-like application member 5 made of a material such as resin foam, paper, etc., which has flexibility and can be impregnated with a certain amount of application agent depending on the application, is engaged with the fastener portions 71, 72 and easily by hand. It can be attached detachably.
The present embodiment configured as described above can be used in substantially the same manner as the previous embodiment. As shown in FIG. 7A, the base plate portion 31 and the spatula portion main body 32 are sandwiched from the pinching spring. When the spatula portion main body 32 is applied from the position where the member to be applied 6 abuts toward the distal direction (upward as shown in FIG. 7A), the spring member 42 is held at a predetermined angle position. The application operation is performed by pressing the grip portion 2 in a direction in which the angle formed by the substrate portion 31 and the spatula portion main body 32 is narrowed to move the applicator 1 forward or backward.
At this time, since the biasing force of the spring member 41 made of a scissor spring does not act on the spatula body 32 and only the biasing force of the spring member 41 made of a torsion spring acts on the spatula body 32, the desired elasticity is given. Even if the member 6 has a curved surface such as automobile glass, for example, it can easily follow the shape of the surface, and the solution can be applied without overcoating.
Then, as shown in FIG. 7 (b), one operation is completed, and the gripping part 2 is moved further in the direction of pressing against the coated member 6 side, and consists of a torsion spring acting on the spatula part main body 32. While releasing the biasing force of the spring member 41, the outer edge is moved downward while being in contact with the member to be coated, so that the spatula body 32 rotates inward while the outer edge is finally covered. The applicator 1 can be released without causing unevenness by separating the applicator member 6 in contact.
When applying the spatula body 32 toward the rear end direction (downward as shown in FIG. 7 (a)) from the position where the spatula body 32 is in contact with the member 6 to be applied, the grip 2 is placed on the substrate 31 and the spatula body. The application operation is performed by rotating the applicator 1 in the direction in which the angle formed with the angle 32 becomes wider and moving the applicator 1 downward as shown in FIG. 7C, for example.
At this time, only the urging force of the pinching spring 42 acts on the spatula portion main body 32, and the urging force of the spring member 41 made of a torsion spring does not act on the spatula portion main body 32. Even if the application direction changes, it can be applied using suitable elasticity in the same way as when applied forward, so that one urging force is applied to the other spring as in a conventionally known two-way spring. It is not added in the reverse direction and is very easy to operate.
Then, after one operation is finished, the gripping part 24 is moved further in the direction of pressing against the coated member 8 side, and the outer side while releasing the urging force of the spring member 42 composed of the pinching spring acting on the spatula part main body 32. By moving the end edge downward while bringing the end edge into contact with the member to be coated, the spatula main body 32 rotates inward, and finally the outer edge is released in a state of being in contact with the member to be coated 6. Thus, the applicator 1 can be released without causing unevenness.
As described above, this embodiment is different from the conventional coating tool shown in FIG. 8 in that it can be applied in either the front or rear direction regardless of the direction of application, and in any direction. Even when the coating is applied, the spatula portion main body 32 has a desired elasticity and abuts against the member to be coated 6 by a predetermined urging force, so that the coating can be made thin and uniform.

本発明にかかるワイパー兼用塗布具は、塗布方向を問わずに弾性を利用した塗装やワイピングを行うことができるため、ガラスや建築材料等に機能性溶液等の液剤を塗布したり、フィルムを貼る際のワイパー兼用の塗布具として利用可能である。  The wiper combined applicator according to the present invention can perform coating and wiping using elasticity regardless of the application direction, so that a liquid agent such as a functional solution is applied to a glass or a building material, or a film is attached. It can be used as an applicator that also serves as a wiper.
