Description

Shoes washing apparatus

The present invention relates to a shoe washer, and more particularly, when washing shoes such as sports shoes, hiking boots, combat shoes, etc., processes such as washing, washing, and drying are performed as an automated process to increase the convenience of washing operations, as well as clean and It relates to a shoe washer that can ensure hygienic cleaning quality.

In general, various shoes such as combat shoes, sports shoes, hiking shoes, and golf shoes are classified as active shoes due to their characteristics. Therefore, when a user engages in a lot of activities, a large amount of dirt or stains are formed on the surface of the shoes, resulting in contamination within a short time.

Such contaminated shoes are usually washed manually by a user or washed with a washing machine.

In addition, when a large amount of contaminated shoes occurs, a separate washing equipment is used. Such equipment is required to be able to clean a large amount of shoes within a short time, and 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 cleaning of military boots or combat boots is generated, and a large amount of military boots or combat boots must be handled during washing, so that not only clean cleaning but also rapid cleaning is required.

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

However, this washing method has several disadvantages because the washing is performed by the operation of the washing machine after the shoes are uniformly injected.

For example, shoes cannot be washed while being softly deformed like clothing because they are like a rigid body that has a fixed shape, so clean washing cannot be performed with the same method of washing as in the case of clothing. Alternatively, there is a disadvantage in that washing is not performed in the rear area, so that the washing effect is poor and it takes a lot of washing time.

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 actually wear the washed shoes.

On the other hand, it is not difficult to see a launderette for sneakers in each neighborhood these days. Currently, a launderette for sneakers is a method that uses separate facilities for washing, dehydration, and drying, which not only takes a long time, but also requires a lot of manual labor. There is a drawback that costs a lot.

Accordingly, the column assembly 14 can be operated upward or downward while being guided by the slider 42 that slides up and down along the rail groove 54 of the guide rail 41.

Hereinafter, the state of use of the shoe washing machine provided by the present invention will be described.

As a preparation process, after opening the cover 44 of the washing tub body 11 and the washing tub cover 28, the column assembly 14 leaves the washing tub 10 and rises upward by the lifting operation of the lifting driving unit 22. Is located, and after the operator seats the shoe 100 on the shoe jig 12, when the cleaning tank cover 28 and the cover 44 are closed, the start switch (not shown) on the control box side is turned ON. , From this point on, the operation for washing shoes is started.

First, when the start switch is turned ON, the entire column assembly 14 including the shoe jig 12 on which the shoe 100 is seated is lowered by the lowering operation of the lifting driving unit 22 and the shoe ( 100) is located in the washing tank 10.

Next, when the shoe 100 is positioned inside the washing tank 10, the entire shoe 100 including the column assembly 14 is low (medium speed, which is the rotational speed during washing) by the operation of the rotation driving unit 18. It rotates at a relatively slower speed), and while the shoe 100 is rotating, the washing water from a nozzle (not shown) installed in the washing tank 10 is sprayed toward the shoe 100.

Accordingly, as various foreign substances attached to the shoes 100 are removed, they can fall to the floor of the washing tub 10, and foreign substances that have fallen to the floor of the washing tub 10 while spraying of the washing water through the nozzle is temporarily stopped, and The contaminated water is discharged to the outside through the drain hole 56 of the washing tank 10.

Next, in a state in which the rotation of the shoe 100 is temporarily stopped due to the operation stop of the rotation driving unit 18, the washing water provided from the nozzle in the washing tank 10 (for example, washing water containing detergent) Is supplied, and when a certain amount of washing water (for example, a sufficient amount to lock shoes) is filled in the washing tank 10, the supply of the washing water is stopped.

Next, in the state where the shoes 100 are submerged in the washing tank 10, the entire shoe 100 including the column assembly 14 by the operation of the rotation driving unit 18 is at medium speed (rather than the lower speed, which is the rotational speed at the time of removing foreign substances). It is relatively fast and rotates at a relatively slower speed than the high speed, which is the rotational speed at the time of spin-drying), and the shoes 100 are washed in the process of rotating the shoes 100 in the washing water in the washing tank 10 in this way.

While the cleaning is performed, ultrasonic cleaning of the shoes 100 may be performed concurrently by the ultrasonic equipment.

Next, when washing of the shoes for a preset time is completed, the rotation of the shoes 100 is stopped by the operation stop of the rotation driving unit 18, and the contaminated water in the washing tank 10 is continuously It is discharged to the outside through the drain hole 56.

Next, after the contaminated water is discharged, the entire shoe 100 including the column assembly 14 rotates at a low speed by the operation of the rotation driving unit 18, and while the shoe 100 is rotating, the washing tank 10 ) Washing water from a nozzle (not shown) installed in the shoe 100 is sprayed.

Accordingly, while the foreign matter remaining in the shoe 100 is completely removed, the shoe 100 is rinsed cleanly, and the contaminated water that has fallen to the bottom of the washing tub 10 is discharged to the outside through the drain side of the washing tub 10.

Next, after rinsing the shoe 100, the entire shoe 100 including the column assembly 14 rotates at high speed (relatively faster than the medium speed, which is the rotational speed at the time of washing) by the operation of the rotation driving unit 18 In this process, water from the shoes 100 is removed and dehydration is performed, and water falling on the floor of the washing tank 10 in the dehydration process is discharged to the outside through the drain side of the washing tank 10 .

Next, the shoe 100 is stopped rotating by the operation stop of the rotation driving unit 18 along with the completion of the shoe dehydration process for a predetermined time, and after the water in the dehydration process is discharged, the rotation drive unit ( 18) causes the entire shoe 100 including the column assembly 14 to rotate at a low speed, while the hot air provided from the outside while the shoe 100 is rotating at a low speed is supplied with the hot air supply hose ( 34), and the hot air at this time passes through the interior of the column assembly 14 and is then sprayed toward the upper shoe 100.

Accordingly, as the water remaining in the shoe 100 is completely removed, the shoe 100 is completely dried, and when the shoe drying process for a predetermined time is completed, the shoe 100 is stopped by the operation of the rotation drive unit 18. (100) stops rotating.

Next, while the foreign matter removal process, the washing process, the rinsing process, the dehydration process, and the drying process are all completed, and the cover 44 and the washing tank cover 28 are opened, the column assembly ( 14) is positioned upwardly out of the washing tub 10, and if the operator continues to take out the shoes 100 on the shoe jig 12, all operations from washing the shoes to drying are completed.

As described above, in the present invention, when washing various types of shoes such as sports shoes, hiking boots, combat shoes, etc., by providing a new type of shoe washing machine that performs the entire process such as a washing process, a washing process, and a drying process as an automated process, Washing can be done quickly and easily, and germs on shoes can be removed in addition to foreign substances, ensuring clean and hygienic cleaning quality, and handling or maintenance because the structure is simple and easy to operate. There is an advantage in terms of management.
