Description

Shoes automatic washing machine

The present invention relates to an automatic shoe washing machine, and more particularly, to an automatic shoe washing machine capable of easily washing and drying various types of shoes, such as combat shoes, sneakers, hiking boots, and the like, in a short time.

In general, various shoes such as combat shoes, athletic shoes, hiking boots, golf shoes, etc. are classified as active shoes, and when a user performs a lot of activities, a large amount of dirt or stains are generated on the surface of the shoes and contaminated within a short time.

It is common for the user to wash the contaminated shoes by hand or by using a washing machine.

In addition, when a large amount of contaminated shoes is generated, separate washing equipment is used, and such equipment is required to be capable of washing a large amount of shoes in a short time, and also to exhibit excellent washing power.

As an example, in the case of soldiers who have a lot of training or outdoor activities, a large amount of wash boots for combat boots or combat boots is generated, and a large amount of war boots or combat boots must be handled during washing, so clean washing and rapid washing are required.

Most of the washing equipment is a structure in which shoes are placed in the washing tank of the washing machine to which the washing water is supplied, and the washing tank is rotated, or only the washing water is rotated without rotating the washing tank.

However, this washing method has a number of disadvantages since the washing is performed by the operation of the washing machine after the shoes are uniformly input.

For example, since the shape of the shoe is the same as that of a rigid body, it cannot be washed while being softly deformed like clothing, so clean washing cannot be performed with the same washing method as in the case of clothing. Alternatively, there is a disadvantage in that the washing effect is poor and the washing time is long because washing is not performed in the trailing place.

In addition, since it requires a long drying process at room temperature after washing, there are many inconveniences such as it takes a long time to wear washed shoes.

On the other hand, it is not difficult to see sneaker laundromat in each neighborhood these days. Currently, sneaker laundries are washed, dehydrated, and dried with their own independent equipment. There is a disadvantage that it is laborious.
