Description

Umbrella and shoe dehydration device {Dehydration Instrument for Umbrella And Shoes}

The present invention relates to a device capable of dehydrating an umbrella and shoes at the same time, and more particularly, by mounting the umbrella and shoes on a holding member rotatably inside a housing and rotating the holding member at high speed to dry the umbrella and shoes. It relates to an umbrella and shoe dehydrator that can be removed by centrifugal dehydration.

In general, when a user using an umbrella in rainy weather enters a public place or a building where a large number of people gather, there is a case in which the user must carry the umbrella to prevent loss of the umbrella. At this time, if the wet umbrella is moved inside the building as it is, the rainwater falling from the umbrella makes the indoor floor slippery and causes an accident such as a fall of a pedestrian. In particular, when such a pedestrian slip accident occurs on stairs or the like, it may cause a very fatal accident. In addition, rainwater that has fallen to the floor is mixed with various contaminants separated from the shoes of pedestrians, etc., and contaminates the indoor floor, so that separate cleaning personnel are required to remove these contaminants.

Therefore, a plastic bag is provided at the entrance of the building, and the plastic bag is filled with an umbrella to move through the building.

However, in the case of using a plastic bag as described above, the umbrella must be drawn in so that it fits well inside the plastic bag, which can be cumbersome. In some cases, when the umbrella is roughly drawn into the plastic bag and moved, rainwater from the umbrella There is a problem that it flows down from the plastic bag as it is. In addition, the used plastic bag is eventually discarded as garbage, which can be harmful to the environment, requires an effort to collect it, and also wastes resources.

Accordingly, recently, in order to solve this problem, an umbrella dewatering device using the rotational force of an electric motor has been proposed.

For example, the umbrella dehydrator disclosed in Patent Publication No. 10-2010-0128731 is configured to rotate the fixed support of the umbrella with the power of a motor and to dehydrate by rotation and dehydration by heating using a heat generating resistor. .

However, the conventional umbrella dehydrator as described above requires the use of electric power to rotate the fixed support and drive the heat-generating resistor, which may cause a leakage problem in case of rain.

In addition, there are problems in that power consumption caused by consumed electricity and leakage problems in rainy weather may occur, and when using power for power supply, the installation space is limited, the device is complicated, and the manufacturing cost is high.

In addition, the conventional umbrella dehydrator is configured to dehydrate only umbrellas in a limited manner, and since wet shoes cannot be dehydrated using the umbrella dehydrator, when moving into a building wearing wet shoes, water flows down to the floor and becomes contaminated, and wet shoes There is a problem that you can only feel uncomfortable because you have to wear it as it is.
