Description

STAIN REMOVING DEVICE AND STAIN REMOVING UNIT [0002]

The present invention relates to a stain remover (hereinafter, referred to as " stain remover ") which removes unevenness caused by adhering remaining cosmetic or food stains on clothes, a stain removing device and a stain removing unit.

, It is preferable to wash only the stain portion in preparation for washing the whole cloth in terms of convenience and efficiency in sucking dirty stains. An example of a device capable of washing only a part of a cloth product is the stain removing device of Patent Document 1. [ The stain removing apparatus includes a solvent ejection unit for ejecting a solvent for stain removal and an absorption unit capable of absorbing the solvent, wherein the stain removal unit ejects the solvent from the solvent ejection unit to a stain portion of clothes or the like, The unit absorbs dirty spots and the solvent from the spot portion. However, such a stain removing apparatus can remove the stain immediately dissolved with the solvent, but it can be said that the stain removing effect is very good because the stain removing apparatus has a low ability to remove solid stains that are attached to cloth articles, for example, none.

In addition, an apparatus for removing stains includes a stain removing system composed of a bottle and an absorbent sheet for containing detergent (Non-Patent Document 1). In the stain removal system, the top of the bottle strikes a stain portion in contact with the absorbent sheet at the bottom and uses the striking action to provide a detergent to the stain from fine pores formed at the top. The detergent is infiltrated into the garment by the striking action and absorbed into the absorbent sheet together with the dirty specks constituting the stain portion.

Non-Patent Document 1 discloses a stain removing system. By providing a detergent at the same time as the stain removal system, the solid stain adhering to the stuck solid is physically decomposed and easily dissolved in the detergent, thereby improving the removal ability of the solid stain.

However, in the stain removal system of the non-patent document 1, when the solid stain separated from the garment through the stain removal operation is not dissolved in the detergent immediately, solid stain blocks the upper end pore of the bottle to reduce the supply amount of the detergent, There is a problem. In addition, there is a problem that the stapling force and the striking speed are unstable, there is a variation in the degree of stain removal, and a hand is tired because the hand holding the bottle has to rapidly carry out the stain removing operation up and down.

The object of the present invention is to efficiently solve such a problem, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a stain removing apparatus which can stably remove stains with stable striking force and striking rate without tiring hands, Device and a stain removal system.

Based on the above-mentioned problem, the following measures are devised.

That is, the stain removing apparatus of the present invention is a stain removal apparatus comprising: a head portion having a striking surface; a vibration unit for vibrating the head portion in a direction substantially perpendicular to the striking surface by power feeding; And a water supply passage connected to the liquid containing portion and opened at the other end around the head portion, wherein the liquid is supplied from the other end of the water supply passage to the periphery of the head portion in accordance with the vibration of the head portion by the vibration unit .

Further, the present invention may further comprise a waterproof cover portion having no flexibility surrounding the side surface of the head portion, wherein the vibration unit includes an elastic member that is expanded and contracted in a direction substantially perpendicular to the impact surface, The operation end of one side of the head part is provided at a position where it can protrude slightly from the protruding end of the waterproof cover part.

The present invention further includes a steam injection unit capable of injecting steam into the head portion.

According to the present invention, there is provided a stain removing apparatus and a heating apparatus, wherein the heating apparatus includes a heater which generates heat by at least feeding, a struck surface to which an external force is applied by the head portion of the stain removal apparatus, And a heating plate for transmitting the generated heat.

According to the present invention described above, since the vibrating unit vibrates the head part by power feeding, the head part can automatically perform the action of striking the object to be stained, so that the striking force is uniform, You can do it and your hands may not be exhausted. Further, since the other end of the water supply passage connected to the liquid containing portion is opened at the periphery of the head portion instead of the striking surface of the head portion and liquid is supplied to the periphery of the head portion, solid dirty stains constituting the stained portion of the stain removal object, It is possible to stably maintain the stain removal effect. Particularly, for example, by appropriately designing the flow passage section of the water supply passage, an appropriate amount of liquid can be continuously supplied to the object to be stained together with the vibration, thereby improving the stain removal effect. Examples of other liquids include water, a mixture of water and detergent, and detergent for removing stains.

Particularly, according to the present invention further comprising a waterproof cover portion, the stain removing operation is performed in a state in which the protruding end of the waterproof cover portion is in contact with the object to be stained, whereby the waterproof cover portion blocks the liquid scattered by the vibration of the head portion, It is possible to reduce the wetting area of the object to be stained, and the object to be stained can be used immediately after the staining operation. In addition, since the distance from the device body to the object for removing the stain can be always constant in the process of removing the stain, it is possible to appropriately and uniformly apply the external force (striking force) applied to the object to be stained by the head. Further, since the operation end of the head part is provided at a position slightly protruding from the protruding end of the waterproof cover part, and the head part is pressed by the elasticity of the coil spring to protrude the object to be stained, The operation of imitating the operation can be automatically realized.

Further, in the present invention in which the waterproof cover portion is provided with a heater that generates heat by the power supply, the waterproof cover portion can be heated by the heat amount of the heater, and the stain portion of the object to be stain- It is possible to further improve the stain removal effect.

(First Embodiment)

Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

1 and 2 are longitudinal sectional views showing a stain removing apparatus 100 according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The stain removal apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment shown in Figs. 1 and 2 is a handheld apparatus capable of partially washing clothes 10A as objects to be stained, and includes a head portion 1, A case body 9 having a separable structure in which these element members are assembled into the inside of the vibration unit 2, the liquid containing portion 3, the water feed passage 4, the battery 5, the waterproof cover portion 6, Respectively.

The head portion (cylinder head) 1 includes a striking portion 11 having a striking surface 111 and a longitudinal cross-section having a substantially semicircular shape (specifically, a shape closer to a circle than a semicircle); And a cylinder insertion portion (12) extending from the striking portion (11). The head part 1 is made of resin (for example, nylon) and is pushed out from the head part accommodating part 92 provided in the case body 9 through the opening 91 and recessed in the case body 9 Vibrates in a direction substantially orthogonal to the striking surface 111 and imparts a striking force to the garment 10A which is a stain removal object arranged to face the striking surface 111. [ In the following description, a direction substantially orthogonal to the striking surface 111 is referred to as a vibration direction. The direction in which the head portion 1 faces the garment 10A in the vibration direction is referred to as the protruding direction Y1 and the opposite direction is referred to as the returning direction Y2. The material of the head part 1 is not limited to resin but may be metal (for example, stainless steel (SUS)).

The vibrating unit 2 includes a motor 23 that is fed and rotated from the battery 5 serving as a power supply unit, first to third gears 22A to 22C that transmit rotational force to the motor 23, A cylinder 21 capable of moving in the vibration direction while holding the head portion 1 while being placed at the end, and a coil spring 24 as an elastic member accommodated in the cylinder 21. [

The first gear 22A includes a large diameter portion 122a that is engaged with the driving gear 123 of the motor 23 and surrounds and rotatable about the shaft 122ab and a large diameter portion 122a which is formed integrally with the large diameter portion 122a And a neck portion 122b. The second gear 22B is disposed between the first gear 22A and the third gear 22C and is engaged with the small diameter portion 122b of the first gear 22A and surrounds the shaft 122cd, And a small diameter portion 122d integrally formed with the large diameter portion 122c and the large diameter portion 122c so as to be coaxial with each other and engaged with the third gear 22C. The third gear 22C is configured so as to surround and rotate the shaft 122ee in the clockwise direction in the drawing (see Fig. 1). At the periphery thereof, four projections (22c). The number of the projections 22c is not limited to four, but may be one to three or five or more.

The cylinder 21 includes a cylindrical coil spring receiving portion 121a having a bottom for accommodating the coil spring 24 in a state of being stretchable in the vibration direction, An insertion portion 121c and a liquid storage portion 121b located between the to-be-inserted portion 121c and the coil spring receiving portion 121a and capable of storing liquid therein.

A fixed portion 93 extending in a boss shape from the case body 9 toward the protruding direction Y1 is inserted into the coil spring receiving portion 121a through the opening 1121a, And accommodates the other end side of the coil spring 24 supported by the end side. The side surface of the coil spring receiving portion 121a is provided with a latching portion 1121b which is engaged with the projection 22c of the third gear 22C. In this cylinder 21, the bottom surface 1121c of the coil spring receiving portion 121a where the other end side of the coil spring 24 touches the protrusion 22c and the latch 1121b is not engaged (see Fig. 2) The head portion 1 is pushed by the elastic force given by the coil spring 24 in the protruding direction Y1.

On the other hand, as the third gear 22C rotates in the state in which the protrusion 22c and the latch 1121b are engaged (see Fig. 1), the compression force is applied to the coil spring 24 from the bottom surface 1121c, (21) moves in the return direction (Y2). Next, when the projection 22c is released from the latch 1121b, it moves in the protruding direction Y1 through the elastic force of the coil spring 24 that has been compressed. By repeating the above operation, the head 1 vibrates (amplitude movement). In this embodiment, as described above, the third gear 22C has four protrusions 22c and reciprocates the head portion 1 four times through one rotation.

The liquid storage portion 121b is narrower than the wide portion 1121d of the width larger than the opening 91 of the case body 9 and the opening 91 of the case body 9, Narrow portion 1121e and the wide portion 1121d is engaged with the edge portion of the opening 91 to limit the range of movement of the cylinder 21 in the protruding direction Y1. In the liquid storage portion 121b, the wide portion 1121d is connected to a liquid supply tube 41 to be described later, and the liquid supplied from the liquid containing portion 3 through the liquid supply tube 41 And provides the liquid to the inserted portion 121c in the narrow portion 1121e.

The blood insertion portion 121c has a water supply hole 1121f extending from the narrow portion 1121e and a water insertion portion 1121g which is a hole into which the cylinder insertion portion 12 of the head portion 1 is inserted by light press- ) (See Fig. 2). Water supply grooves (slit grooves) 12a extending in the axial direction are formed on the outer circumference of the cylinder inserting portion 12 at regular intervals. The liquid in the narrowed portion 1121e is supplied to the inserted portion 1121g through the water supply hole 1121f and the vibrating unit 2 vibrates and vibrates in the state in which the head portion 1 vibrates, The liquid is discharged from the discharge port 1121h of the water supply groove 12a at a predetermined depth (0.1 to 0.3 mm left and right in the embodiment) in the gap between the to-be-inserted portion 1121g and the cylinder inserting portion 12 by a small amount To 1.5 cc / min).

On the other hand, in a state in which the head portion 1 does not vibrate, the liquid is not discharged from the discharge port 1121h due to the surface tension, but stays between the cylinder insertion portion 12 and the to-be-inserted portion 121c. Since the size of the water supply groove 12a is adjusted to such a degree as to discharge a small amount of liquid by the vibration of the head portion 1, the amount of liquid used is smaller than that of other cleaning methods such as spray cleaning or brush cleaning, The liquid is not scattered to the portion other than the portion 10a.

Further, the structure is not limited to the structure in which the cylinder insertion portion 12 is press-fitted and inserted into the to-be-inserted portion 121c, and may be inserted by screwing. In addition, the to-be-inserted portion 121c is configured to allow the head portion 1 to be detached, and the other head portion may be mounted on the to-be-inserted portion 121c. Therefore, for example, when the stain is stuck on the striking surface 111 directly contacting the stain portion of the garment 10A, the stain removal apparatus 100 removes the head portion 1 and cleans the head portion 1, It can also be replaced. Further, the water supply groove 12a may be formed in the inserted portion 1121g, not the cylinder insertion portion 12. Further, the present invention is not limited to the structure in which the surface tension is exerted on the liquid in the discharge port 1121h, and the water supply hole 1121f of the cylinder 21 may be adjusted to a predetermined diameter (0.3 mm, for example) May be configured to prevent dropping of the liquid through the surface tension acting on the opening end of the water supply hole 1121f in a state in which the water supply hole 1121f is not vibrated.

The liquid containing portion 3 includes a receiving body 31 that is discharged from the inserted portion 121c and receives liquid provided on the periphery of the head portion 121c and a liquid supply hole 32 of the lid member 33. An air hole (not shown) is formed in the lid member 33. Therefore, even if the lid member 33 is closed, no negative pressure is formed inside the liquid containing portion 3 and the liquid can be smoothly introduced into the water feed passage 4, 1121h.

Here, the liquid may be only water, a detergent mixture in which water and detergent are mixed in a certain ratio, a detergent for removing stains, or the like. In this embodiment, a detergent mixture is used. When the detergent mixture is used as the liquid, the detergent is continuously supplied to the garment 10A, so that the detergent does not disappear from the stain portion 10a due to evaporation, scattering, etc. during the stain removal work. Further, since the apparatus for providing the detergent does not need to be installed separately, the structure of the apparatus is simplified.

The water supply passage 4 provides the liquid in the liquid containing portion 3 to the periphery of the head portion 1. Specifically, one end 41a is connected to the liquid containing portion 3 and the other end 41b A flexible liquid supply tube 41 connected to the wide portion 1121d of the liquid storage portion 121b, a liquid storage portion 121b, a water supply hole 1121f of the inserted portion 121c, An insertion portion 1121g, and a water supply groove 12a of the head portion 1. [ One end of the water supply passage 4 is constituted by one end 41a of the liquid supply tube 41 and the other end of the water supply passage 4 is located between the inserted portion 1121g and the cylinder insertion portion 12 And an outlet 1121h formed at the opening end of the water supply groove 12a.

The stain removal apparatus 100 causes the absorbing pad 10B to be brought into contact with the lower portion of the stain portion 10a of the garment 10A by backing and the strike surface 111 of the head portion 1 And the stain portion 10a are opposed to each other.

When the power switch S provided on the outside of the case body 9 is operated, the motor 23 is rotated by the power supply from the battery 5, and the rotation is transmitted through the first gear 22A and the second gear 22B and transmitted to the third gear 22C. The cylinder 21 and the head portion 1 are lifted up to a predetermined dimension (about 5 mm in this embodiment)? (See Fig. 1), and the protrusion 22c and the latching portion 1121b The cylinder 21 is pushed by the elastic force of the coil spring 24 so that the head portion 1 strikes the stained portion 10a (see FIG. 2). At this time, the central portion 41c of the liquid supply tube 41 flexibly deforms to absorb the vibration of the cylinder 41c, and the liquid slowly drops from the discharge port 1121h in accordance with the vibration, And is provided along the side surface of the stain portion 10a.

This operation is repeated while the case body 9 moves along with the garment 10A so that the liquid provided in the stained portion 10a dissolves the dirty stains constituting the stained portion 10a and is discharged from the garment 10A And absorbed by the absorption pad 10B. That is, the stain removal apparatus 100 of the present embodiment removes stains by transferring dirty stains of the clothes 10A to the absorbent pad 10B together with the liquid. The present invention is not limited to the absorbent pad 10B, and various pads can be used as long as the liquid absorbing speed is high. For example, the absorbent pad 10B can be folded into a kitchen pad. Further, when the operation of periodically changing the abutting position of the head part 1 with respect to the absorbent pad 10B is performed during the process of removing the stain, the dropped liquid is stably absorbed to the absorbent pad 10B, The efficiency state can be maintained. In the present embodiment, since the liquid detergent solution is used as the liquid, the detergent is constantly provided to the stain portion 10a without hassle even when the position where the head portion 1 is contacted is changed.

In the above configuration, the vibrating unit 2 vibrates the head part 1 by power feeding, so that the head part 1 can automatically hit the clothes 10A, so that the hitting force becomes uniform You do not need to move your hands quickly, you can do stain removal for a long period of time and your hands may not get tired. The other end (that is, the discharge port 1121h) of the water supply passage 4 whose one end 41a is connected to the liquid containing portion 3 is located at a position near the head portion 1 instead of the striking face 111 of the head portion 1 Even if a solid dirty stain constituting the stained portion 10a is adhered to the striking surface 111, the water feed passage 4 does not clog and the stain removing effect can be stably maintained . Particularly, for example, by appropriately designing the flow passage section of the water supply passage, an appropriate amount of liquid can be continuously supplied to the object to be stained together with the vibration, thereby improving the stain removal effect. Furthermore, the structure can be simplified when compared to a structure for dropping liquid using vibration, for example, a liquid pump using a liquid pump.

Thus, the stain removal apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment is compact and excellent in portability, and can be cleaned immediately when the food waste or cosmetics are stuck on the cloth, so that the stain can be made clear. In addition, it is possible to suitably wash an article such as a curtain or a mat which is difficult to be washed as a whole locally.

The waterproof cover portion 6 is attached to the case body 9 so as to be detachable by the rib 9a at a position surrounding the side surface of the hitting portion 11 of the head portion 1 as shown in Fig. In this embodiment, the transparent member is made of acrylic acid and has no flexibility. The vibrating unit 2 is a member for projecting the head part 1 through the elastic force of the coil spring 24. The vibrating unit 2 adjusts the stroke of the head part 1, Is set at a position slightly protruding from the protruding end (61) of the waterproof cover portion (6). More specifically, the distance t in the vibration direction from the striking surface 111 of the head portion 1 located at the protruding position to the protruding end 61 of the waterproof cover portion 6 is set to a predetermined distance 1 to 2 mm).

The waterproof cover portion 6 is moved in a state where the protruding end 61 of the waterproof cover portion 6 is in contact with the garment 10A so that the liquid splashed by the vibration of the head portion 1 It is possible to reduce the wettable area of the garment 10A and make it possible to wear the garment 10A immediately after the smear removal operation. In addition, since the distance from the apparatus body to the clothes 10A can be always constant in the process of removing the stains, the external force (striking force) applied to the clothes 10A at the head can be appropriately and uniformly set. The operation end of the head part 1 is provided at a position slightly protruding from the protruding end 61 of the waterproof cover part 6 and the head part 1 is fixed by the elasticity of the coil spring 24 It is possible to automatically realize the operation of mimicking the action of striking (pressing) the stained portion 10a with the hand because it presses the garment 10A at the time of protrusion. Furthermore, since the waterproof cover portion 6 is transparent, the state of the unevenness of the uneven portion can be confirmed through the waterproof cover portion 6 in the process of removing the unevenness.

The shape of the waterproof cover portion 6 is not limited to the cylindrical shape as long as it can cover the entire side surface of the impact portion 11. For example, the waterproof cover portion 6 may have a substantially tapered shape (the protruding end 61 faces toward the garment 10A) An unfolded shape). The waterproof cover portion 6 may be configured to be fixed to the case body 9 without being removably attached thereto.
