Description

ECO-FRIENDLY CENTRIFUGAL DEHYDRATOR

The present invention relates to an umbrella drying apparatus, and more particularly, while air blown out from the blowing fan blows between the fabrics of the wet umbrella, while pushing out the moisture of the wet umbrella, the umbrella is automatically rotated by blowing from various directions. It relates to an umbrella drying device that can effectively dry the umbrella.

In general, in rainy weather, most umbrella users enter indoor spaces, such as hotels, department stores, schools, shopping malls, and office buildings, without completely removing moisture from wet umbrellas.

So, rainwater or the like attached to an umbrella falls from an umbrella to an indoor floor or a staircase, and such rainwater slips the indoor floor to cause an accident such as a pedestrian falling over, and such a slipping accident of the pedestrian occurs on the stairs or the like. In some cases, it can lead to very fatal accidents. In addition to this, rainwater that has fallen on the floor is mixed with various contaminants that have fallen off the pedestrian's shoes, thereby polluting the indoor floor, and thus it is difficult to maintain cleanliness.

Therefore, a disposable umbrella vinyl cover supply device is provided at the entrance of the building to provide an umbrella box for always holding an umbrella in case of rain or to carry an umbrella.

At this time, an umbrella vinyl cover is mainly used to prevent concerns about the loss of the umbrella. The umbrella vinyl supply device sets a dozen umbrellas or folding umbrellas (foldable umbrellas) in a plastic bag to set the number of dozens of umbrellas for the user. Keep it in a plastic bag.

However, if the umbrella plastic cover is placed in a plastic bag for a long time due to rainwater remaining on the fabric of the umbrella, rainwater permeates the fabric of the umbrella and corrodes the umbrella ribs. There is a problem that some parts get wet.

In addition, since the umbrella vinyl supply device generates a large amount of wet disposable vinyl cover after use, considerable effort is also required to dispose of it, and its consumption is also costly to use as a disposable, causing environmental pollution in the waste disposal part. It is causing.

Therefore, there is a need for a device capable of effectively removing rainwater attached to an umbrella, and two types of such devices are exemplified.

One of the two methods is a method using an adsorption pad or a rubber pad, and is an umbrella rain water removal device such as a scraper that is inserted into a specific shape, such as an adsorption pad or a rubber pad, and scraped to remove rainwater from an umbrella. However, such a rainwater removal device simply removes rainwater and does not remove water absorbed by the fabric of the umbrella, and there is a problem that the fabric of the umbrella is easily torn or damaged. In addition, as another problem, when the adsorption pad or rubber pad attached to the device for absorbing rainwater is completely wet and can no longer absorb moisture, the device can no longer function properly and the person cannot function properly. It is inconvenient to be able to perform the intended function only by replacing the wet pad with a dry pad.

The other of the two methods is a technique for drying rainwater attached to an umbrella using wind or allowing rainwater to be removed from an umbrella. As one of these techniques, Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1235127 is an example. Can be lifted.

The Umbrella Drying Device of Korean Patent No. 10-1235127 has an inverted cone-shaped drying chamber where the entire umbrella can be inserted, a storage chamber where rainwater accumulates below the drying chamber, and a blower fan and a blowing fan that causes wind to be supplied to the drying chamber. It comprises an air line that leads (air flow) to the drying chamber.

When an umbrella is inserted into the drying chamber of the umbrella drying apparatus having the above-described configuration, the wind by the blowing fan flows into the drying chamber and the umbrella is dried. During the umbrella drying process, rainwater flowing from the umbrella is collected in the storage chamber below the drying chamber.

However, the rainwater drying device such as No. 10-1235127 is more complicated than necessary, such as having both a drying room and a water storage room inside the umbrella drying device, which increases the volume of the device and increases the cost required to implement and maintain the device. There is a problem.

Republic of Korea Registered Patent No. 10-1235127 (Name: umbrella drying device, registration date: February 14, 2013)

1, the eco-friendly centrifugal umbrella dehydrator 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a base 10, a control unit 30, a blower 50, a ring guide 60 and a handle guide 70 It is made including.

FIG. 2 shows a photograph of a state in which an umbrella is inserted into the eco-friendly centrifugal umbrella dehydrator 100.

1 and 2, the ring-shaped guide 60 does not form a complete circle, and the lower left portion is not connected with respect to FIG. 1. This is to make it easier to place the umbrella in the eco-friendly centrifugal umbrella dehydrator 100 when the umbrella is temporarily mounted or removed. Similarly, it can be seen that the handle guide 70 is also configured to open and close the surface in the same direction, making it easy to position the handle of the umbrella.

The handle guide 70 includes a guide body 71, a guide door 73, and a hinge 75 to open the guide door 73 when placing the umbrella in the eco-friendly centrifugal umbrella dehydrator 100 and handle the umbrella After placing the part on the handle guide 70, the guide door 73 can be closed.

In addition, as a configuration for maintaining the closed state of the guide door 73, a clasp 77 and a clasp 79 are added. At this time, the locking member 79 is added on the outer surface of the guide door 73, and the latch 77 is a part of the locking member 79 when the locking member 79 is rotated among the outer surfaces of the guide body 71 Hanging at 77, the guide door 73 is installed in a position capable of maintaining a closed state.

In implementing the handle guide 70, it is possible to implement the rotational movement of the umbrella according to the operation of the blower 50 after the umbrella is mounted to be implemented to be cylindrical (including hollow) as shown in FIG. 1. . In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the handle guide 70 is implemented in a square column shape (including hollow), so care must be taken not to confuse it.

1 and 2, three blowers 50 are installed on the upper surface of the base 10 to form a triangular shape. Here, the exact meaning of'the blower 50 is installed to form a triangle' may have been connected to the center of the upper end 59 of each blower 50 by a virtual line with the center of the upper end 59 of the blowers 50 adjacent to each other. When 3 line segments are formed, it means that these 3 line segments form a triangle.

Here, the blower 50 is not necessarily limited to three must be installed. When the wind is discharged from the blower 50, the umbrella temporarily mounted on the eco-friendly centrifugal umbrella dehydrator 100 is rotated by the wind, and the optimal number of blowers 50 for causing rotation of the umbrella is 3 Since it is judged as personal, it shows an embodiment in which three blowers 50 are installed, and is only described based on the embodiments. It can be said that the number of blowers 50 may vary depending on the embodiment.

As described above, since the number of installations of the blowers 50 is different, it is understood that the arrangement of the blowers 50 is installed at a predetermined angle radially apart from the base hole 15. In a typical embodiment, a plurality of blowers 50 are'installed at a certain angle apart', but depending on the specific purpose embodiment, the blower 50 may not necessarily be'installed at a certain angle apart'.

As described above, since three blowers 50 are installed on the base 10 to form a triangle, the blowers 50 are formed by rotating an impeller (not shown) inside the blower, which is formed on one outer surface of each blower 50. ) Each blower 50 must be installed so that the discharge port 55 which blows out the air toward the outside and causes wind, faces the inner direction of the triangle.

In addition, around the discharge port 55 formed on one surface of the blower 50, a discharge guide 57 guiding the direction of the air flow ejected to the outside of the blower 50 is formed to protrude toward the outside of the blower 50 do.

In addition, depending on the embodiment, the direction in which the ejection guide 57 faces may be fixed, or may be implemented in a form in which the direction in which the ejection guide 57 faces can be adjusted.

Here, an example in the case where the direction in which the discharge guide 57 is directed is implemented in an adjustable form will be described.

The discharge guide 57 is made of a material capable of temporarily maintaining its state by applying force to the discharge guide 57 to maintain its state after being bent and bending again in a different direction to change the direction of the discharge guide 57 at random. By forming a method to make the direction of discharge guide 57 can be arbitrarily adjusted as necessary,

There is a method in which the angle of the discharge guide 57 with respect to the blower 50 can be arbitrarily adjusted by adding a hinge to the portion where the discharge guide 57 and the blower 50 are connected.

By implementing the eco-friendly centrifugal umbrella dehydrator 100 in a form including the above-described methods or a method for controlling the direction of the discharge guide 57, it is possible to improve the efficiency of drying the umbrella.

In addition, a base hole 15 penetrating the base 10 is formed at any point on the base 10 that is the center or the vicinity of the virtual triangle formed by the installation of the three blowers 50, so that an umbrella head is inserted. Make it possible. In addition, a bearing 5 is installed on the bottom surface of the base 10 so as to communicate with the base hole 15 so that when the umbrella tap is inserted into the base hole 15, it is temporarily fixed.

At this time, since the inner circumferential surface of the bearing 5 surrounds the umbrella head, it may be an interference fit or a loose fit. Since the fixing of the umbrella head using the bearing 5 is temporary or temporary, it does not matter whether it is a forced fit or a loose fit.

In addition, referring to Figure 1, the wheel is attached to the lower surface of the base 10, this wheel is for the convenience of movement when using or storing the eco-friendly centrifugal umbrella dehydrator 100, the presence or absence of the wheel is technical of the present invention Since it is not a part influencing the implementation and implementation of the idea, the presence or absence of a wheel can be regarded as not related to the implementation of the present invention.

3 is for the installation of the base bottom of the bearing 5, FIG. 3(a) shows the bearing 5 and the bearing fixture 9, and FIG. 3(b) shows the bearing on the bottom surface of the base 10 (5) shows the installed state. At this time, the bearing (5) is inserted and fixed in the bearing insertion hole (7) formed in the bearing fixing body (9), the base in a manner of fixing the bearing fixing body (9) to the bottom surface of the base (10) It is installed on the bottom of 10).

Here, it should be noted that the hole included in the center of the bearing 5 should communicate with the base hole 15. By installing the bearing 5 so that the hole included in the center of the bearing 5 communicates with the base hole 15, an umbrella tap is inserted into the center hole of the base hole 15 and the bearing 5, and the blower 50 Umbrella is automatically rotated when it is operated to discharge air, so that it rotates smoothly.

In addition, referring to FIG. 1 or 2, a ring-shaped guide 60 having a portion of a circular shape is coupled to the upper end of the blower 50, and a handle guide 70 is attached to the ring-shaped guide 60 more than the ring-shaped guide 60 It is installed to be located at the top.

Here, the role of the handle guide 70 is to limit the range of movement of the handle portion of the umbrella when the umbrella tap is inserted into the base hole 15 and the bearing 5 and rotated to dry the umbrella. The main role of the ring guide 60 is in the installation of the handle guide 70, and also serves to limit the range of movement of the umbrella fabric. The blower 50 operates to rotate the umbrella and serves to limit the range of movement so that the umbrella does not collapse or the umbrella fabric is too distracted in the situation where the fabric of the umbrella flutters.

In addition, referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, a control unit 30 is installed at a portion outside the triangle formed by the blower 50 among the upper surfaces of the base 10. At this time, the installation position of the control unit 30 is not necessarily limited to the upper surface of the base 10, the control unit 30 may be installed inside the lower surface of the base 10 or the base 10.

However, if the operation switch of the blower 50 is included in the control unit 30 and manual operation is required, the control unit 30 must be installed on the upper surface of the base 10 to facilitate operation.

Here, the main functions of the control unit 30 are the power supply to the blower 50 and the operation control of the blower 50.

In addition, a detection sensor capable of detecting whether an umbrella is inserted is added to the base hole 15 and the handle guide 70, and when the detection results of each detection sensor are transmitted to the control unit 30, the control unit ( 30) can automatically control the operation of the blower 50 so that the blower 50 is operated.

At this time, in the operation control of the blower 50 according to the detection result of the detection sensor, the detection signal installed in the base hole 15 and the handle guide 70 of whether the umbrella is inserted is detected as'insert' on both sides. It can be said that it is good to operate the blower 50 only in this case.

It is natural that the blower 50 is not operated when the detection signal installed in the base hole 15 and the handle guide 70 is detected as'non-insertion' on both sides, and the base hole 15 ) And when it is detected that an umbrella is inserted in only one of both of the detection sensors installed in the handle guide 70, it is also preferable to control the blower 50 to not operate.

In addition, when the control unit 30 controls the operation of the blower 50, it is possible to simply perform ON/OFF control, and according to an embodiment, the blower 50 can control the intensity, direction, etc. of the wind. You may.

Figure 4 is a flow analysis performed assuming the case where the blower 50 of the eco-friendly centrifugal umbrella dehydrator 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is operating, three blowers 50 installed to form a triangle And it can be seen that the vortex is formed near the center of the triangle by the air discharged from the discharge port (57).

As described above, the dehydration and drying efficiency of the wet umbrella that is temporarily mounted and dried on the eco-friendly centrifugal umbrella dehydrator 100 is improved by the vortex airflow formed near the center of the triangle and the eco-friendly centrifugal umbrella dehydrator 100.

In addition, since the drying umbrella is automatically rotated, there is no need for additional power to rotate the umbrella, and thus the cost of implementing the corresponding device is also reduced.

On the other hand, in the specification and drawings, preferred embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed, although specific terms have been used, they are merely used in a general sense to easily describe the technical contents of the present invention and to help understand the invention. It is not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
