Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail. However, the same reference numerals for the same or similar components will be used uniformly.

Referring to FIG. 1, the multipurpose cleaner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a head 1 having a cleaning member mounted thereon, and a handle 2 extending from the head 1. At this time, the cleaning member 5 is rotatable with respect to the head 1, the head 1 is capable of spraying the washing water supplied from the outside toward the cleaning member (5). At this time, the washing water is supplied through a hose connected to the end of the handle, the washing water is injected into the lower portion of the head after passing through the flow path and the inside of the head.

In addition, as shown in FIGS. 2 to 3, an inner space 14, which is an empty space, is formed inside the head 1 by the housing 11. The inner space 14 is equipped with an impeller 15 which rotates by the water pressure of the washing water introduced into the head 1. The rotating shaft of the impeller 15 is rotatably supported by a bearing provided in the ceiling inside the housing 11. The cleaning member may be configured to rotate by an electric motor provided in the head, in which case the configuration of the impeller can be omitted.

23 shows a mounting configuration of an impeller according to another embodiment.

Both ends of the rotating shaft 15a of the impeller 15 according to another embodiment are provided by a rear support bearing B2 provided on the ceiling of the housing 11 and a watertight front support bearing B1 on the front side of the head. Supported.

That is, the rear support bearing B2 provided on the ceiling of the housing 11 rotatably supports the upper end of the impeller rotating shaft 15a. In addition, the front support bearing B1 rotatably supports the lower end of the impeller rotating shaft 15a at the bottom of the housing 11 (the direction in which the washing member is coupled). At this time, the front support bearing (B1) is a waterproof bearing in accordance with a known configuration, so that the cold wash water inside the housing does not flow out of the housing through the front support bearing (B1).

Furthermore, the output shaft 152 coupled to the impeller rotating shaft 15a exposed to the lower part of the head may be screwed with the rotating shaft 15a of the impeller. At this time, the screw coupling between the output shaft 152 and the impeller rotating shaft 15a is made by rotating in the direction opposite to the direction in which the impeller rotates by washing water or the like coming into the housing. Thus, the screw coupling between the output shaft and the rotating shaft is not loosened during the normal rotation of the impeller.

In addition to the screw coupling, the output shaft and the rotation shaft may be combined with any one of various coupling methods such as fitting coupling and mechanical coupling using a crimp or pin.

The cleaning member 5 is detachably coupled to the output shaft 152 of the impeller 15 positioned below the housing 11. At this time, the coupling part 51 of the cleaning member 5 assembled to the output shaft 152 of the impeller 15 has a circular cross section, or has a square cross section or circular cross section to prevent the loss of drive transmission, and irregularities on the outer circumferential surface thereof. Can be formed.

The lower end of the housing 11 is open, and the washing water injection unit 3 is mounted thereto.

The washing water spraying unit 3 is coupled to the nozzle plate 31 which is coupled to the open lower end of the head to form the bottom of the inner space, and is in contact with the nozzle plate 31 and is changed in position with respect to the nozzle plate 31. Possible throttle 32. In addition, a plurality of nozzle holes 311 penetrated up and down are formed in the nozzle plate 31, and a plurality of control holes 321 are formed in the control plate 32. As the position of the control plate 32 is changed with respect to the nozzle plate 31, some nozzle holes and the adjusting holes may coincide with each other, and the washing water of the internal space 14 may be sprayed to the outside. At this time, the remaining nozzle hole is covered by the control plate will not be sprayed washing water. That is, by forming the position of the nozzle hole and the position of the adjustment hole differently, it is possible to spray the washing water only in some nozzle holes of the nozzle plate.

3 to 5 show one embodiment of the washing water injection unit (3).

The center of the nozzle plate 31 is a cylindrical portion 313 protrudes in order to be coupled to the output shaft 152 of the impeller 15, and has a disk shape according to the circular cross section of the head 1. The throttle plate 32 is shown as a disc abutting the bottom of the nozzle plate 31. The upper end of the cylindrical portion 313 is formed with a groove, the stepped portion 153 of the rotating shaft of the impeller 15 in contact with the upper end of the cylindrical portion 313 is formed with a cylindrical projection inserted into the groove. As the cylindrical projection is inserted into the groove, the washing water of the inner space 14 may be prevented from escaping between the upper end of the cylindrical portion and the impeller rotating shaft.

The nozzle plate 31 and the adjusting plate 32 cover the opened lower portion of the housing 11, and then are finished by the closing cap 12 that couples and fixes the nozzle plate 31 and the adjusting plate 32 to the head. At this time, the center of the nozzle plate 31, the adjustment plate 32 and the closing cap 12 penetrates up and down, and the output shaft 152 of the impeller 15 is exposed toward the lower part of the head 1.

In addition, the grip handle 312 protrudes outside the control plate 32. The grip handle 312 protrudes out of the head 1, so that the user can rotate the control plate 32 with respect to the nozzle plate 31 through the grip handle 312.

A plurality of inner nozzle holes 311a are formed on the inner side of the virtual circle IC centrifugally centering the center of the nozzle plate 31 coupled to the output shaft 152 of the impeller 15. The outer nozzle hole 311b is formed in the outer side of the.

Here, the diameter of the virtual circle can be arbitrarily changed.

On the other hand, the control plate 32 also has a plurality of inner control holes (321a) and a plurality of outer control holes (321b) are formed corresponding to the inner nozzle hole (311a) and the outer nozzle hole (311b) of the nozzle plate 31, respectively. , The inner adjusting hole 321a or the outer adjusting hole 321b is formed at a position rotated by an angle from the center of the adjusting plate 32. That is, the inner adjusting hole or the outer adjusting hole is formed at a position shifted from the position corresponding to the nozzle hole of the original nozzle plate. For example, all of the inner adjusting holes 321a are formed at an angle rotated about 5 degrees with respect to the outer adjusting holes 321b. As a result, when the adjustment plate 32 is rotated by the grip handle 312, the inner nozzle hole 311 a or the outer nozzle hole 311 b of the nozzle plate 31 is selectively opened. In addition, the washing water is sprayed from the inner nozzle hole (311a) or the outer nozzle hole (311b) to be selectively opened.

When the washing member 5 is separated from the output shaft 152 of the impeller 15 and only the spray of washing water is used, the inner nozzle hole 311a of the washing water spraying unit 3 may be opened to spray the high pressure washing water. . In addition, when the washing member 5 is combined with the head 1 and used together with the washing water, the outer nozzle hole 311b is used to open. As a result, the washing water sprayed on the circumference through the outer nozzle hole does not directly contact the washing member, thereby preventing the detergent inside the washing member 5 from being easily washed off by the washing water.

6 to 7 show a washing water jet 3 according to another embodiment.

The washing water spraying unit 3 according to another embodiment includes a nozzle plate 31 and a control plate 32. At this time, a plurality of guides 314 protrude from the center in the radial direction from the center. In the figure, four guides 314 orthogonal to each other are shown in a cross shape, but alternatively, two or more guides may be formed. The inner surface of the guide 314 protruding from the nozzle plate 31 is formed with a groove into which the end of the division adjusting plate 32a to be described later is inserted.

The throttle plate 32 is composed of split throttle plates 32a which are slidably moved along the radial direction by neighboring guides 314. Each of the dividing control plates 32a is mounted at an end in a groove formed on the inner surface of the guide, so that it is in contact with the nozzle plate 31 at all times.

In addition, the nozzle plate 31 is provided with the inner nozzle holes 311a and the outer nozzle holes 311b as described above. On the other hand, as described above, each of the adjustment plate 32a, the inner adjustment holes 321a and the outer adjustment holes 321b are formed. However, the inner adjustment holes (321a) are formed at the position moved in parallel in the radial direction of the split control plate (32a).

Furthermore, the split adjustment plate 32a is elastically supported toward the center of the nozzle plate 31 by the elastic spring 33. The elastic spring 33 may be variously changed, such as a wire spring and a rubber band, and may be fixed to the nozzle plate 31 or fixed to the housing 11. The elastic spring 33 elastically supports the outer side of the dividing control plate 32a to elastically support the dividing control plates 32a toward the center of the nozzle plate 31. In FIG. 5, as the outer side is elastically supported by the elastic spring, split control plates 32a are collected toward the center of the nozzle plate 31. As a result, the inner adjusting holes 321a are aligned with the inner nozzle holes 311a, but the outer adjusting holes 321b are positioned inconsistent with the outer nozzle holes 311b. Accordingly, the washing water of the inner space 14 passes through the inner nozzle holes 311a and is discharged to the outside.

3 to 6, a coupling portion 51 coupled to the head 1 is further protruded from the center of the cleaning member 5, and each of the division adjusting plates 32a includes a coupling portion 51. Protruding end 323 is formed to slide in contact with the outer circumferential surface to move the partition control plate (32a) away from each other. When the coupling portion 51 of the cleaning member 5 is inserted into and coupled to the output shaft 152 of the impeller, the coupling portion 51 pushes the protruding end 323 radially. As a result, the elastic spring 33 is elastically deformed and the division adjusting plates 32a are moved away from each other, that is, the outside of the nozzle plate 31. Thereby, it is comprised so that switching adjustment may be carried out so that the outer side adjusting hole 321b may match in the state which the inner side adjusting hole 321a of the nozzle plate 31 and the division control plate 32a matched.

In this case, depending on whether the head 1 and the cleaning member 5 are coupled, the inner nozzle hole 311a or the outer nozzle hole 311b is selectively opened and the spray pattern of the washing water is switched.

Referring to FIG. 6 again, a part of the surface where the guide 314 and the division adjusting plate 32a contact each other is formed with a flat portion 315 parallel to the sliding movement direction of the division adjusting plate 32a. The plane portion 315 is to allow the plane movement of the dividing control plate 32a moving in the radial direction from the center of the nozzle plate 31 to be stable. Alternatively, although not shown, the split throttling plate and the guide pins formed on the guide and the guider groove structure through which the guide pins are guided may be formed to correspond to the split throttling plate to be constantly moved radially.

3 and 8 to 9, the rotary blade 151 of the impeller 15 mounted on the internal space 14 of the head 1 is an inlet hole of the internal space 14 into which the washing water flows. (141) It is close to the inner wall, and is spaced apart from the remaining inner wall. That is, the spacing interval of the rotary blades 151 of the impeller 15 adjacent to the inner wall around the inlet hole 141 is minimized so as to effectively rotate the impeller by the hydraulic pressure of the injected washing water.

In addition, in the remaining inner wall, not around the inlet hole 141, the rotor blade 151 and the inner wall of the impeller 15 is spaced apart so that the flow of the washing water is possible. To this end, the internal space 14 may have an elliptical cross section. That is, the impeller is mounted to one side of the inner space having an elliptical cross section so that the rotating blade of the impeller is close to the portion having a small radius of curvature.

On the other hand, if the impeller is close to the inner wall around the inlet hole, and the structure has a relatively large distance between the rotor blade and the inner wall in the remaining inner wall, the cross section of the inner space may have a variety of cross-sectional shape in addition to the elliptical shape.

Referring to FIG. 9B, in order to satisfy the separation relationship between the inner wall and the rotary blade 151 of the impeller 15, the impeller 15 is formed smaller than the inner diameter of the inner space 14, and the impeller ( 15) can be configured eccentrically. At this time, the rotary blade 151 is formed to be curved to induce the impeller to rotate by the injected washing water.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 9A, the inner space may be formed as a non-circular curved surface. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 9C, the inflow hole 141 may be eccentrically formed in a direction in contact with the circumference of the curved surface of the inner space 141.

Referring again to FIGS. 1 to 3, although not necessarily required, the head 1 further includes a detergent supply unit 4 capable of supplying the detergent stored in the cleaning member 5.

Specifically, the detergent supply unit 4 includes a storage tank 41, the opening and closing cap 42, the pump 43 and the supply hose 44.

In the figure, the storage tank 41 is formed on the upper part of the housing 11 on which the impeller 15 is mounted. However, the storage tank 41 may be formed around the housing 11 or formed on the handle 2. In addition, the detergent supply unit 4 may be configured to be detachable from the housing 11 or the handle (2).

The opening / closing cap 42 is formed on one side of the storage tank 41, and is a closure member that allows detergent to be stored in the storage tank 41.

The pump 43 is composed of an elastic membrane forming part of the storage tank 41. In the figure, the pump 43 forms the upper end of the head in the form of a convex membrane upwards.

The supply hose 44 discharges the detergent in the storage tank 41 toward the cleaning member 5. If a flow path through which detergent passes is formed in the housing, the supply hose may be replaced with the flow path. As the detergent supply unit 4 is provided, the user may pressurize the pump to increase the internal pressure of the storage tank and supply the detergent stored in the storage tank to the cleaning member through the supply hose.

1 and 10, the flow passage 21 through which the washing water passes is formed in the handle 2, and the handle 2 is equipped with a valve 22 for controlling the flow of the washing water. In one example, the valve 22 is a cock valve. By operating the valve it is possible to adjust the flow rate or flow rate of the washing water injected from the head.

The handle 2 has a curved shape in at least one portion. Therefore, the user can easily contact the cleaning member on the vertical surface of the object to be cleaned even if the user does not bend the waist. The shape of the handle may be variously changed according to the use aspect of the multipurpose washer.

Furthermore, the handle 2 is further provided with a length adjusting portion 23 that can adjust the length according to the intended use. This length adjusting portion is a configuration that can be omitted.

22 shows a detailed configuration of the length adjustment unit.

The first pipe part 24 is coupled to the head, and the second pipe part 25 has an inner diameter equal to or larger than the outer diameter of the first pipe part so that the first pipe part 24 can be accommodated therein. In this case, the second pipe part may be configured to be coupled to the head by changing the positions of the first and second pipe parts.

The first pipe part 24 is formed with a plurality of fitting grooves 241 recessed in the outer circumferential surface along the circumferential direction. If the first pipe part has a structure that does not rotate relative to the second pipe part, the fitting groove may be formed as a simple fine groove without being recessed along the circumferential direction.

The open one end side of the second pipe portion is formed to be corrugated to constitute a grip portion 251 that can be easily grabbed by the user. The operation part 26 is provided in this corrugated gripping part 251. The operation unit 26 is squeezed by the user, thereby fixing the length of the first tube unit 24 exposed from the second tube unit 25 or temporarily releasing the fixing.

Specifically, the operation unit 26 is hinged to the second pipe portion 25, the pressing member 261 and the fitting protrusion 262 protruding toward the fitting groove 241 is fitted with the fitting groove ( And an elastic member 264 that elastically presses the pressing member 261 in the direction of insertion into the 241.

Although not necessarily required, the exposed surface of the pressing member 261 has a substantially continuous shape with the surface of the gripping portion 251. This improves the appearance and prevents the pressing member from being pressed against the user's intention by not protruding normally.

In addition, the pressing member 261 is provided with a fitting protrusion 262 that can be inserted into the fitting groove 241, and the pressing member 261 is hinged to the second pipe portion 25 by a pin 263 or the like, and the fitting protrusion ( The 262 may move the seesaw to be attached to and detached from the fitting groove 241.

The elastic member 264 elastically supports the pressing member 261 to press the fitting protrusion 262 toward the fitting groove 241 at all times. In the figure, the elastic member 264 is presented as a coil spring, but may be replaced with an elastic spring such as rubber or a spring having another shape.

Furthermore, as shown, at least one pair of the pressing member 261 and the elastic member 264 may be provided on one side and the other side of the second pipe part 25 to face each other. In this case, the user must simultaneously press the pressing members 261 at positions opposite to each other in order to pull out the first pipe portion 24. This can prevent the handle from lengthening arbitrarily during the handling of the multipurpose washer.

1 to 3, the cleaning member 5 is detachably coupled to the head 1, and the coupling unit 51 and the washing unit coupled to the output shaft 152 of the impeller as being capable of washing the object.

At this time, the position adjusting means 6 is protruded in parallel to the cleaning member (5) and on the movement guide 61 and the output shaft 152, the uneven surface 611 is formed on at least one inner surface of the inner surface facing each other. It is mounted and includes at least one cushioning port 62 for elastically pressing the uneven surface 611.

The pair of moving guides 61 are formed on a straight line passing through the center of the cleaning member 5 in a state spaced parallel to each other. Concave-convex surface 611 is formed on the inner surface of the moving guide 61 facing each other. The uneven surface 611 is formed by a plurality of locking projections 612 protruding along the longitudinal direction of the movement guide 61.

Meanwhile, the lower end of the uneven surface 611 is recessed, and the lower end of the output shaft 152 is inserted into a groove formed in the lower end of the neighboring movement guide 61. As a result, the cleaning member 5 may move along the longitudinal direction of the movement guide 61 without being separated in the longitudinal direction of the output shaft 152.

A groove is recessed in the outer surface of the output shaft 152, and a cushioning opening 62 is mounted on the inner surface of the groove to elastically support the groove formed in the uneven surface. Specifically, the cushion engaging port 62 is embedded in the inner wall of the recessed groove of the output shaft 152, the center portion is a plate protruding to the outside. At this time, the cushion engaging port 62 may be made of a thin metal piece. The cushioning latch 62 is elastically deformable, and the protruding center portion presses the groove of the uneven surface 611.

Eccentric movement of the cleaning member (5) is made while the cushion engaging port (62) over the locking jaw 612 as the cleaning member is forcibly moved along the longitudinal direction of the movement guide (61). 18 and 19 show an eccentrically moved state. In FIG. 18, the cleaning member 5 is biased to the right with respect to the output shaft 152, and in FIG. 19, the cleaning member 5 is further eccentrically moved to the end of the movement guide 61. By the eccentric movement of the cleaning member (5) it is possible to wash the area shown by the dashed line at once.

Hereinafter, the operation of the multi-purpose washer according to the embodiments of the present invention.

First, in the case of using the present invention for the shower, the cleaning member 5 is separated and removed from the head (1).

In this case, the washing water introduced into the inner space 14 of the head through the handle 2 is sprayed through the nozzle plate 31. At this time, in the configuration including the split control plate, the nozzle plate 31 of the head is positioned so that the inner nozzle hole (311a) and the inner nozzle hole (311a) of the adjustment plate to spray the washing water through the inner nozzle hole to take a shower. Will be.

Alternatively, in a configuration including a nozzle plate including a grip handle, the user may rotate the control plate so that the washing water is selectively ejected from the inner nozzle hole or the outer nozzle hole.

The user can also adjust the injection amount of the washing water by operating the valve 22.

On the other hand, in the case of mounting the cleaning member 5 to the head (1) it can serve as a brushing with the injection of the washing water. Coupling the cleaning member 5 to the head 1 is achieved by coupling the coupling portion 51 of the cleaning member 5 to the end of the output shaft 152 of the impeller 15 exposed at the center of the lower end of the head.

In the configuration including the dividing control plate 32a, the dividing control plate 32a is radially moved by the coupling portion 51, and the outer nozzle hole 311b, which is not the inner nozzle hole of the nozzle plate 12, is the outer side of the dividing control plate. Positioned to match the nozzle hole (311b) is to spray the washing water through the outer nozzle hole. When the washing member is separated from the output shaft, the split adjustment plates 32a are restored to each other by the elastic spring 33, the outer nozzle holes 311b are closed, and the washing water is again discharged through the inner nozzle holes 311a. You can spray.

Meanwhile, when the washing water is supplied after the washing member 5 is coupled to the head 1, the washing water flows into the inner space 14 of the head to rotate the impeller 15, and accordingly, the output shaft of the impeller 15 ( The washing member 5 coupled to 152 is rotated together. In addition, the detergent 43 may be supplied to the cleaning member 5 by pressing the pump 43 of the detergent supply unit 4.

Particularly, while the washing member 5 is washed with the detergent, the washing water is sprayed at the position of the outer nozzle hole 311b of the washing member 5 as described above, so that the detergent of the washing member 5 is washed by the washing water. You can reduce the way out.

Furthermore, by moving the cleaning member 5 eccentrically with respect to the output shaft 152 of the impeller 15, it is possible to wash a large area covered by the rotation of the cleaning member at once.

The multipurpose washer according to the embodiments of the present invention may change the spray pattern of the washing water, thereby reducing the amount of washing water used. Detergent injected into the cleaning member is controlled by the spray pattern of the washing water so that it does not easily flow down by the washing water, so that even a small amount of detergent can be used to exhibit sufficient cleaning power.

In addition, the impeller is rotated by using the pressure of the washing water injected into the head, the rotor blades of the impeller close to the inner wall around the inlet hole in the inner housing can reduce the pressure loss of the washing water, improve the rotational efficiency of the impeller . In addition, the use of mechanical elements such as gears and pulleys as a power transmission means is minimized, the structure is simple, less trouble, and manufacturing costs can be reduced.

In addition, various types of cleaning elements include bathroom cleaning, bubble bath, carpet cleaning, shoe hair, sneakers or toilet bowl, bathroom floor cleaning, washing dishes in kitchen or restaurant, washing vegetables, etc., car washes, building exterior walls, etc. It is intended to be used for various purposes across.

In addition, since the cleaning member may be eccentric with respect to the rotating shaft that provides the rotational force, the washing member may be cleaned at a time without increasing the frictional resistance between the object and the cleaning member, thereby having a large area. It is to have the advantage that can quickly wash the object, ie large windows, swimming pool, bath.
