Description

DISPOSITIF POUR LE NETTOYAGE DES CLUBS DE GOLF DEVICE FOR CLEANING GOLF CLUBS
La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour le nettoyage des clubs de golf.The present invention relates to a device for cleaning golf clubs.
On sait que lors de la pratique du jeu de golf, les clubs utilisés doivent faire l'objet de soins attentifs de la part du joueur. En particulier, à la fin d'un parcours ou d'une partie, il faut nettoyer les clubs utilisés pour les débarrasser des particules de terre ou autres poussières qui auraient pu y adhérer au cours du jeu, et ce travail se fait habituellement à l'aide d'une brosse à main.It is known that during the practice of the game of golf, the clubs used must be subject to careful care on the part of the player. In particular, at the end of a course or a game, it is necessary to clean the clubs used to rid them of particles of soil or other dust which could have adhered to it during the game, and this work is usually done at using a hand brush.
La présente invention a pour objet de proposer un dispositif de nettoyage des clubs facilitant ce travail, ce dispositif se caractérisant essentiellement en ce que la partie active est constituée par un cylindre creux à l'intérieur duquel émergent, dans le sens radial, des poils de brosse s'étendant sensiblement jusqu'à l'axe du cylindre. Il suffit de plonger le club dans ce cylindre et de le retirer pour opérer son nettoyage.The object of the present invention is to provide a device for cleaning the clubs which facilitates this work, this device being characterized essentially in that the active part consists of a hollow cylinder inside of which emerge, in the radial direction, bristles of brush extending substantially up to the axis of the cylinder. Simply immerse the club in this cylinder and remove it to clean it.
Dans un mode de réalisation préféré de la présente invention, le cylindre est disposé à axe vertical et obturé à - sa partie inférieure par un fond étanche lui permettant de contenir de l'eau ou tout autre produit pouvant faciliter le nettoyage des clubs. En outre le cylindre peut être avantageusement fermé à sa partie supérieure par un obturateur à lamelles souples afin d'éviter les projections vers l'extérieur au cours des manoeuvres de nettoyage, ledit obturateur étant amovible de façon à permettre l'enlèvement de la partie brosse en vue du nettoyage de celle-ci.In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cylinder is arranged with a vertical axis and closed at - its lower part by a sealed bottom allowing it to contain water or any other product which can facilitate the cleaning of the clubs. In addition, the cylinder can advantageously be closed at its upper part by a flexible lamella shutter in order to avoid projections to the outside during cleaning maneuvers, said shutter being removable so as to allow removal of the brush part. for cleaning it.
Enfin le cylindre peut être avantageusement incorporé à une structure assez lourde pour lui donner l'assise convenable et éviter le renversement, les surfaces extérieures des parois verticales ou de préférence obliques de ladite structure pouvant servir de support pour des messages publicitaires.Finally, the cylinder can advantageously be incorporated into a structure heavy enough to give it the proper seat and prevent overturning, the external surfaces of the vertical or preferably oblique walls of said structure being able to serve as a support for advertising messages.

1'obturateur à volets. Si on se réfère à la figure 1, on voit qu'un dispositif selon 1'invention comporte une structure externe 1 à l'intérieur de laquelle est disposé un cylindre vertical 2. La face interne de ce cylindre est garnie essentiellement sur toute sa hauteur de poils 3 de brosses de nettoyage s'étendant sensiblement horizontalement jusqu'à son axe, de manière à occuper tout l'espace offert à l'intérieur de ce cylindre. La face supérieure du cylindre est fermée par un obturateur 4 à volets souples.The shutter. Referring to Figure 1, we see that a device according 1'invention has an external structure 1 inside which is disposed a vertical cylinder 2. The internal face of this cylinder is furnished essentially over its entire height bristles 3 of cleaning brushes extending substantially horizontally to its axis, so as to occupy all the space offered inside this cylinder. The upper face of the cylinder is closed by a shutter 4 with flexible shutters.
La structure externe 1 est un caisson de forme quelconque, réalisé en un matériau approprié comme, par exemple, une pièce en matière plastique injectée ou une pièce en panneaux de bois assemblés. Dans le mode de; réalisation présenté cette structure a la forme d'un tron de pyramide à quatre faces latérales, qui est la forme préférée pour cette structure; mais d'autres formes sont tout aussi admissibles sans sortir du cadre de parallélépipède droit, ou encore de cylindre ou de tronc de cône à axe vertical. On veillera simplement à choisir une forme conférant à l'appareil une stabilité suffisante pour ne pas être renversé facilement en service, et un poids suffisant pour ne pas se déplacer facilement, encore qu'il soit possible également de remédier à ces inconvénients en prévoyant une possibilité de fixation de la structure 1 au sol. Outre les faces latérales, au nombre de quatre dans l'exemple ici décrit, la structure 1 peut comporter, ou non, un fond 6 de préférence fermé. Par ailleurs cette structure 1 est fermée par le haut au moyen d'un couvercle 7, de préférence emboîté et amovible, mais pouvant aussi être monté sur une charnière, ou encore solidaire de l'ensemble de fabrication, présentant sensiblement en son milieu une ouverture circulaire 8 dont le diamètre correspond au diamètre extérieur du cylindre 2.The external structure 1 is a box of any shape, made of a suitable material such as, for example, a piece of injected plastic or a piece of assembled wooden panels. In the mode of ; embodiment presented this structure has the shape of a pyramid section with four lateral faces, which is the preferred form for this structure; but other forms are just as admissible without leaving the frame of a right parallelepiped, or of a cylinder or truncated cone with a vertical axis. Care will simply be taken to choose a shape which gives the device sufficient stability not to be easily overturned in service, and sufficient weight not to move easily, although it is also possible to remedy these drawbacks by providing a possibility of fixing structure 1 to the ground. In addition to the side faces, four in number in the example described here, the structure 1 may or may not have a bottom 6, preferably closed. Furthermore, this structure 1 is closed from above by means of a cover 7, of preferably fitted and removable, but can also be mounted on a hinge, or even integral with the manufacturing assembly, having substantially in its middle a circular opening 8 whose diameter corresponds to the outside diameter of the cylinder 2.
A 1'intérieur de cette structure 1 est disposé un cylindre vertical 2 emboîté dans l'ouverture circulaire 8 du couvercle 7, et s'étendant depuis ledit couvercle 7, à la surface supérieure duquel il affleure, jusqu'au fond 6 de la structure 1, sur lequel il est .centré et maintenu par un moyen approprié. Si la structure 1 ne possède pas de fond 6, cette fonction de centrage et de retenue du cylindre 2 peut être assurée par des moyens solidaires des parois latérales 5 de la structure 1.Inside this structure 1 is disposed a vertical cylinder 2 fitted into the circular opening 8 of the cover 7, and extending from said cover 7, on the upper surface of which it is flush, to the bottom 6 of the structure 1, on which it is centered and maintained by an appropriate means. If the structure 1 does not have a bottom 6, this function of centering and retaining the cylinder 2 can be ensured by means integral with the side walls 5 of the structure 1.
Le cylindre 2, représenté en coupe longitudinale sur la figure 2 et en coupe transversale sur la figure 3, peut avantageusement être fermé à sa partie inférieure par un fond 9 muni, le cas échéant, d'un robinet de vidange (non représenté). II peut être réalisé à partir d'un morceau de tube extrudé en matière plastique disponible dans le commerce, mais aussi par moulage par injection, surtout s'il comporte un fond etancheThe cylinder 2, shown in longitudinal section in Figure 2 and in cross section in Figure 3, can advantageously be closed at its lower part by a bottom 9 provided, where appropriate, with a drain valve (not shown). It can be made from a piece of commercially available extruded plastic tube, but also by injection molding, especially if it has a waterproof bottom
9, ou encore par assemblage de toute autre manière appropriée.9, or by assembly in any other appropriate manner.
A l'intérieur du cylindre 2 est disposé un tapis 10 supportant des poils de brosse, représenté partiellement en vue en perspective sur la figure 4. Comme le montrent les figures 2 et 3, ce tapis 10 est appliqué contre la paroi interne du cylindre 2 de sorte que les poils 3 qu'il porte sont orientés radialement, lesdits poils 3 ayant des longueurs telles qu'au moins une partie d'entre eux atteint 1'axe du cylindre 2 de manière à occuper tout l'espace qui lui est offert. La répartition et la disposition des poils 3, ou des touffes de poils 3, sur le support 10 peut être extrêmement variable. Le tapis support 10 est de préférence réalisé en matériau souple du type élastomère et sa largeur est telle, qu'une fois roulé et appliqué contre la face interne du cylindre 2, ses deux bords extrêmes se rejoignent comme on le voit en 12, les poils qu'il porte étant alors orientés essentiellement radialement vers l'axe du cylindre.Inside the cylinder 2 is disposed a mat 10 supporting brush bristles, shown partially in perspective view in FIG. 4. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, this mat 10 is applied against the internal wall of the cylinder 2 so that the bristles 3 which it carries are oriented radially, said bristles 3 having such lengths that at least part of them reaches the axis of the cylinder 2 so as to occupy all the space which is offered to it. The distribution and arrangement of the bristles 3, or tufts of bristles 3, on the support 10 can be extremely variable. The support mat 10 is preferably made of flexible material of the elastomer type and its width is such that, once rolled and applied against the internal face of the cylinder 2, its two extreme edges meet as seen in 12, the bristles that it carries then being oriented essentially radially towards the axis of the cylinder.
Enfin l'ouverture supérieure du cylindre 2 peut être fermée par un obturateur à volets 4 représenté en détail sur la figure 5. Cet obturateur 4 est constitué par un certain nombre de volets 11 (au nombre de 12 sur l'exemple ici représenté) fixés à leur périphérie sur un anneau ayant sensiblement le même diamètre que le cylindre 2 pour pouvoir être fixé sur celui-ci. L'obturateur est réalisé en un matériau souple approprié tel qu'un élastomère. Les volets 11 sont constitués de languettes radiales identiques jointives se recouvrant partiellement de manière à réaliser une obturation complète du haut du cylindre 2 lorsqu'elles sont au repos, mais elles peuvent s'écarter par simple pression pour laisser passer un objet tel qu'un club de golf et leur forme est telle qu'elles se trouvent rappelées en position horizontale jointive lorsque le dit objet ou club de golf est retiré.Finally, the upper opening of the cylinder 2 can be closed by a shutter shutter 4 shown in detail in FIG. 5. This shutter 4 is constituted by a certain number of shutters 11 (12 in number in the example shown here) fixed. at their periphery on a ring having substantially the same diameter as the cylinder 2 to be able to be fixed thereon. The shutter is made of a suitable flexible material such as an elastomer. The flaps 11 are made up of identical identical radial tabs partially overlapping so as to completely seal the top of the cylinder 2 when they are at rest, but they can move apart by simple pressure to allow an object such as a golf club and their shape is such that they are recalled in a horizontal position joined when the said object or golf club is removed.
Le fonctionnement et l'utilisation du dispositif selon la présente invention tel qu'il vient d'être décrit évidents. Lorsqu'un joueur veut procéder au nettoyage d'un club, il l'introduit par le haut le long de l'axe du cylindre 2 et le fait descendre jusqu'au fond dudit cylindre avant de le retirer à nouveau afin que 1'action des poils 3 de brosse contre la tête du club de golf réalisent son nettoyage. Ce mouvement d'introduction et de retrait du club de golf dans le cylindre 2 peut naturellemnt être répété un certain nombre de fois pour parfaire le nettoyage.The operation and use of the device according to the present invention as just described is obvious. When a player wants to proceed with the cleaning of a club, he introduces it from the top along the axis of cylinder 2 and makes it descend to the bottom of said cylinder before removing it again so that the action brush bristles 3 against the head of the golf club carry out its cleaning. This movement of introduction and withdrawal of the golf club in the cylinder 2 can naturally be repeated a number of times to complete the cleaning.
Si le cylindre 2 comporte un fond 9 étanche, il peut contenir de l'eau ou tout autre produit liquide favorisant le nettoyage du club de golf. Dans ce cas il est souhaitable également que le haut du cylindre 2 soit fermé par un obturateur à volets 4 du type ci-dessus décrit afin d'éviter toute éclaboussure ou projection de liquide pouvant se produire lorsqu'on retire le club de l'appareil.If the cylinder 2 has a sealed bottom 9, it may contain water or any other liquid product favoring the cleaning of the golf club. In this case it is also desirable that the top of the cylinder 2 is closed by a shutter shutter 4 of the type described above in order to avoid any splashing or projection of liquid which may occur when the club is removed from the device. .
Il est à noter qu'un dispositif selon l'invention peut avantageusement comporter en regard de 1'extrémité inférieure du tapis 10, une brosse amovible, non représentée, disposée horizontalement sur le fond du cylindre, les poils étant dressés verticalement vers le haut, autorisant le nettoyage du club. Grâce notamment à la fixation des poils sur un tapis amovible et à leur disposition radiale dans tout le volume offert par le cylindre, l'appareil selon l'invention est de construction compacte, il présente en outre une grande efficacité de nettoyage, ainsi qu'une grande simplicité d'utilisation et d'entretien.It should be noted that a device according to the invention may advantageously comprise, opposite the lower end of the mat 10, a removable brush, not shown, arranged horizontally on the bottom of the cylinder, the bristles being drawn up vertically upwards, authorizing the cleaning of the club. Thanks in particular to the fixing of the bristles on a removable carpet and to their radial arrangement throughout the volume offered by the cylinder, the apparatus according to the invention is of compact construction, it also has great cleaning efficiency, as well as great simplicity of use and maintenance.
Après un certain nombre d'opérations de nettoyage, il est extrêmement simple de vider le contenu du cylindre 2 pour le débarrasser des saletés et des boues qui sont accumulées dans le fond.After a certain number of cleaning operations, it is extremely simple to empty the contents of cylinder 2 to rid it of dirt and sludge which have accumulated in the bottom.
Par ailleurs le ou les' faces latérales 5, de même d'ailleurs que le couvercle 7 de la structure externe 1 dans laquelle le cylindre 2 est incorporé, peuvent être judicieusement utilisés pour servir de support à des messages publicitaires, ce qui peut constituer une source de revenus non négligeable pour la société gérante du terrain de jeu.Furthermore the or 'lateral faces 5, and moreover that 7 of the one outer cover structure in which the cylinder 2 is incorporated, can be judiciously used to serve as a support for advertising messages, which can be a significant source of income for the company managing the playground.
Il faut cependant noter que cette structure externe 1 n'est pas indispensable, le cylindre 2 pouvant être utilisé tout seul s'il est convenablement fixé, ou encore incorporé dans toute autre structure existante, sans sortir du cadre de 1'invention.It should however be noted that this external structure 1 is not essential, the cylinder 2 being able to be used all alone if it is suitably fixed, or even incorporated in any other existing structure, without departing from the scope of the invention.
Comme on l'a vu au cours de la description de la forme de réalisation qui précède, la présente invention peut donner lieu à de nombreuses variantes d'exécution relatives, entre autres, à la forme et à la fonction du cylindre 2, à la disposition des poils 3 à l'intérieur de ce cylindre, ou à la réalisation de l'obturateur à volets 11, sans sortir du cadre de la présente invention. As has been seen during the description of the preceding embodiment, the present invention can give rise to numerous variant embodiments relating, inter alia, to the shape and function of the cylinder 2, to the arrangement of the bristles 3 inside this cylinder, or in the production of the shutter shutter 11, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
