Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the technical sector of accessories for cleaning and maintaining footwear.
  • the present invention relates to a device able to allow the washing of footwear inside common washing machines.
  • the washing machine is usually used that, even if specific for washing garments, can also adapt to washing footwear.
  • many drawbacks and technical problems can occur, as the washing machine is not specifically designed for washing footwear. Among them, poorly efficient washing and anomalous and undesired wear and tear of the footwear.
  • a further drawback is directly linked to the drying spin cycle.
  • the shoes remain pressed against the wall in random positions that do not guarantee a uniform drying thereof.
  • the shoes even partially overlapping each other, cannot dry in a uniform manner, as the water cannot flow out properly through their different components (for example inner sole, upper, outsole, closing devices such as Velcro fasteners).
  • the soles of the shoes are generally impermeable to insulate feet against water penetration, for example rain, during use.
  • the sole because of the material whereof it is made and its high thickness, prevents water from flowing toward the outside via centrifugal force. In this case the shoe cannot therefore dry in a uniform manner, and remains wet in various parts even after a strong and long spin cycle.
  • US 6 067 729 A describes a device that holds two shoes in opposite positions against the drum of a washing machine by means of a flexible rod inserted in the shoes until it reaches the inner area of toes.
  • the rod with a diameter greater than the drum, pushes from the inside the outer toes of the shoes against the cylindrical wall of the drum. But, obviously, the rod allows the shoes to rotate around their toe during the rotation of the drum.
  • the device is provided with an extensible tube with T- shaped ends suitable to be fit in two shoes pushed with the soles in opposite positions into contact with the cylindrical lateral walls of the drum.
  • the T-shaped ends do not hinder movement of the wet upper toward the sole; during the washing cycle continuous stresses and bending of the fabric/upper therefore occur, dangerous for both seams and heat welds or glued seams of the upper, for which the shoe is not designed.
  • the shoe takes such a position that the sole, which is impermeable, and the perimeter part of upper near the sole, which is often impermeable too, prevent the water, during rotation of the drum, especially during the spin phases necessary for an effective washing, from flowing out from the shoe, thus causing stagnation of possibly dirty water, and the dirt can remain inside the shoe until washing is finished, thus resulting in a poorly satisfactory or pejorative washing.
  • the sole mostly faces toward the cylindrical lateral walls of the drum, the drum with the inner concavity of the shoe (i.e. the foot housing shoe zone) facing the axis of rotation of the drum itself.
  • the devices discharge locally in two more or less limited and opposite areas of the cylindrical lateral walls of the drum, and this may result in drum deformation, as the devices are fixed through pressure on the cylindrical walls of the drum, that sometimes is not designed for these concentrated actions.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device to allow the washing of footwear in a washing machine, which overcomes all the above mentioned drawbacks.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a device to allow effective and uniform washing of footwear in washing machine, and which allows, at the same time, to obtain a subsequent uniform and effective drying of the shoe.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a device to allow the washing of footwear in washing machine, which preserves them from deformations and wear caused by both the impacts against the drum and by anomalous pressures or tractions, caused by the spin cycle, that can damage the shoes that do not bear these stresses as they are not designed for it.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a device to allow the washing of footwear in washing machine that, at the same time, preserves the integrity of the drum, of the seal gaskets between the case containing the drum and the door, and of the same door.
  • the present device for allowing the washing in washing machine of footwear in general, particularly sport footwear, characterized by comprising means (1; 201; 301; 401) designed to allow to hang up at least one shoe in the drum of the washing machine in such a way that said shoe can be washed maintaining substantially the position corresponding to where it hangs.
  • the above mentioned means (1; 201; 301) comprise a hanging unit (7) designed to be inserted inside the shoe to be washed (i.e. the hanging unit is designed to wear the shoe). This unit (7) is associated to the drum so as to rotate rigidly with it.
  • the part of hanging unit inserted in the shoe is not into contact with the drum and is spaced from it so as to allow the interposition of the thickness of the shoe between hanging unit and drum.
  • Blocking the shoe by means of an abutment (most of the unit 7) inside the shoe itself the contact between the most of the hanging unit 7 and the inner surface of the shoe is uniformly distributed and not limited to specific inner areas of the shoe, thus avoiding localized deformations of the shoe during washing, that can generate permanent deformations of the shoe; moreover, in this way the contact points of the outer surface of the shoe with the hanging means are reduced or canceled, with consequent reduction in the wear and tear of the shoe at these points.
  • blocking of the shoe is also more stable, whilst, as already mentioned, the shoe deformation, if any, is extremely reduced.
  • the hanging unit (7) adequately comprises a part defining a surface facing toward the inner face of the sole or inner sole, coming into contact preferably with it, when the unit is inserted inside the shoe.
  • the above mentioned surface of the hanging unit (7) faces the axis of rotation of the drum, thus allowing during rotation, particularly in the spin phase, water outflow from the sole of the shoe toward the upper.
  • the above mentioned surface of the unit facing the axis of the drum divides the drum into two parts, one first of which contains the axis of rotation thereof, while the second of which is designed to contain the part of shoe relating to the upper, i.e.
  • this part is conveniently peripheral relative to the axis of rotation, so as to have geometrically such an axis of rotation as to generate during the spin phase, an effective centrifugal force in the water contained in the shoe, or with which the shoe is impregnated.
  • the shoe fitted on the hanging unit (7) is oriented with the sole facing the axis of rotation of the drum and with the inner part of the upper facing toward the cylindrical lateral surface of the drum, i.e. the outside of the drum.

  • the fixing means (3; 203; 303) therefore allow to engage said supporting element relative to the walls of the washing machine drum, thus allowing the drum to put the supporting element into rotation in a rigid and integral manner.
  • This blocking is conveniently obtained at the lateral wall of the drum, i.e. the lateral wall of the cylinder forming the drum preferably and advantageously in the positions of the calendered sheets.
  • the means (7, 17) therefore serve to hang up physically the shoe to the drum through the use of said elements.
  • the shoe, through the supporting means is put into rotation by the rotating drum, but is forced to maintain the constraining position given by the means (7, 17), where it physically hangs.
  • this solution during washing the shoe cannot therefore crash in a random manner against the walls of the drum or mutually against the other shoes.
  • This solution furthermore avoids shoe being pressed, during the spin cycle, against the lateral wall of the drum, occupying positions unsuitable for a uniform drying.

  • the perforated shoetree 19 on one hand allows flowing in all the inner areas of the shoe increasing the efficiency of the washing thanks to the greater speed of water flowing from the jets, on the other hand it maintains during washing the shoe in shape and prevents it from pressing or deforming even if washing cycles with hot water are provided.
  • the device according to the present invention is able to block more stably the shoes to be washed, avoiding impacts or abrasions on the shoes, as well as their deformations, and furthermore allows to avoid water stagnation on the areas inside the shoes related to the soles and the perimeter areas adjacent to them. Lastly, it allows to obtain a surely more effective washing effect, as at the end of each rinse cycle, after the spin phase the water remaining in the shoe is minimum due to the effect of non-stagnation and therefore each load of clean water contributes to an effective washing ending with the last spin cycle. At this point, it is clearly apparent that all the objects of the present invention have been achieved.
