特許第３３２８７８２号公報Japanese Patent No. 3328882
従来の自転車のチェーン洗浄装置はチェーンを洗浄できても、前後ギアを洗浄することはできなかった。その結果、従来の洗浄装置を取付けてチェーンを駆動させると、洗浄装置から出たチェーンが前後ギアと接触した際に、ギアの汚れを吸着してしまい、不完全な洗浄しかできなかった。 Even though the conventional bicycle chain cleaning device can clean the chain, it cannot clean the front and rear gears. As a result, when a conventional cleaning device was attached and the chain was driven, when the chain coming out of the cleaning device contacted the front and rear gears, dirt on the gear was adsorbed and only incomplete cleaning was possible.
本発明の自転車用洗浄装置は、角度自在Ｖフレーム（１）は、自転車のシートステイ（２）の内側に取付けるフレームa（１６）と、チェーンステイ（３）の内側に取付けるフレームｂ（１７）とが、一方の端部を開閉自在に接続された構成になっており、フレームa（１６）にはチェーン（５）を洗浄する第１洗浄具（８）を取付ける第１洗浄具取付け部材（３０）と、後側ギア（６）を洗浄する第２洗浄具（９）を取付ける第２洗浄具取付け部材（３１）とが長手方向に移動自在に取付けられ、フレームｂ（１７）には前側ギア（７）を洗浄する第３洗浄具（１０）を取付ける第３洗浄具取付け部材（３２）が長手方向に移動自在に取付けられており、フレームa（１６）とフレームｂ（１７）が自由な角度に調整できる。 In the bicycle cleaning apparatus of the present invention, the freely adjustable V frame (1) includes a frame a (16) attached to the inside of the bicycle seat stay (2) and a frame b (17) attached to the inside of the chain stay (3). The first cleaning tool mounting member (1) for attaching the first cleaning tool (8) for cleaning the chain (5) to the frame a (16). 30) and a second cleaning tool mounting member (31) for mounting the second cleaning tool (9) for cleaning the rear gear (6) are movably mounted in the longitudinal direction, and the frame b (17) has a front side A third cleaning tool mounting member (32) for mounting the third cleaning tool (10) for cleaning the gear (7) is movably mounted in the longitudinal direction, and the frame a (16) and the frame b (17) are free. Can be adjusted to any angle.
本発明の自転車用洗浄装置を用いれば、今まで個別で洗浄していたチェーンとギアを同時に洗浄することが可能となり、汚れた部位をくまなく効率よく迅速に綺麗にすることができる。　　　　　
さらに洗浄・潤滑に使用する液体を投入・回収する洗浄液入出トレーを備えたことで、洗浄剤と潤滑剤を周囲に飛散させることなく、チェーンとギアに散布し、またそれらの余剰な液を集約することが可能となっており、周辺環境及び、作業者が廃液で汚れることがなくなった。 By using the bicycle cleaning device of the present invention, it becomes possible to simultaneously clean the chain and the gear that have been individually cleaned so far, and it is possible to efficiently and quickly clean the dirty part.
In addition, it is equipped with a cleaning liquid inlet / outlet tray that inputs and collects liquid used for cleaning and lubrication, so that the cleaning agent and lubricant can be sprayed onto the chain and gear without being scattered around, and the excess liquid can be collected. This makes it possible to prevent the surrounding environment and workers from getting dirty with waste liquid.

以下、本発明を実施するための形態を図１～図１０に基づいて説明する。 Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
図１は本発明の自転車用洗浄装置を自転車後部に取付けた外観図である。後側ホイール４は前側ギア７と後側ギア６に巻きつけられたチェーン５によって駆動される。本発明の角度自在Ｖフレーム１は、自転車のシートステイ２の内側に取付けるフレームa１６と、チェーンステイ３の内側に取付けるフレームｂ１７とが、一方の端部をヒンジ１８により開閉自在に接続された構成になっている。 FIG. 1 is an external view of the bicycle cleaning device of the present invention attached to the rear part of a bicycle. The rear wheel 4 is driven by a chain 5 wound around the front gear 7 and the rear gear 6. The angular V frame 1 of the present invention has a configuration in which a frame a16 attached to the inside of a bicycle seat stay 2 and a frame b17 attached to the inside of a chain stay 3 are connected to each other by a hinge 18 so as to be opened and closed. It has become.
角度自在Ｖフレーム１のフレームｂ１７の断面形状は図３に示すように正方形であり、全ての側面に溝１９が長手方向に彫られている。溝１９にはナット２１を入れることができ、そこにボルト２０を締めこむことで、ボルト２０は長手方向に自在に移動でき、任意の位置にボルト２０を固定することができる。フレームa１６の断面形状も図３とは図面が上下逆となるが、同じ位置関係である。 The cross-sectional shape of the frame b17 of the angular V frame 1 is a square as shown in FIG. 3, and grooves 19 are carved in the longitudinal direction on all side surfaces. A nut 21 can be inserted into the groove 19, and by tightening the bolt 20 there, the bolt 20 can be freely moved in the longitudinal direction, and the bolt 20 can be fixed at an arbitrary position. The sectional shape of the frame a16 is the same as that of FIG.
角度自在Ｖフレーム１の自転車への取付け方法としては、フレームa１６とシートステイ２を例えば収縮性のあるバンド１３で挟み込み、フレームa１６をシートステイ２に固定する。 As a method of attaching the angular V-frame 1 to the bicycle, the frame a16 and the seat stay 2 are sandwiched by, for example, a contractible band 13, and the frame a16 is fixed to the seat stay 2.
フレームｂ１７とチェーンステイ３を例えば収縮性のあるバンド１３で挟み込み、フレームｂ１７をチェーンステイ３に固定する。これによりフレームa１６とフレームｂ１７とヒンジ１８で構成されている角度自在Ｖフレーム１は自転車に固定される。 The frame b17 and the chain stay 3 are sandwiched by, for example, a contractible band 13, and the frame b17 is fixed to the chain stay 3. As a result, the angular V frame 1 composed of the frame a16, the frame b17, and the hinge 18 is fixed to the bicycle.
溝１９には図３に示すように様々な洗浄具をボルト２０とナット２１で取付けできる。なお第１洗浄具であるブラシａ８と第２洗浄具であるブラシｂ９の取付けは図５に示すように穴２３を有するブラケット２２を介することで行われる。ブラケット２２は溝１９に図６に示す位置関係で取付けられる。ブラケット２２を取付けるボルト２０を緩めると溝１９の上を任意に移動し、ボルト２０を締めるとその場で角度を決めて固定することができる。これにより、ブラシａ８とブラシｂ９を任意の位置に動かし固定することが可能となる。 Various cleaning tools can be attached to the groove 19 with bolts 20 and nuts 21 as shown in FIG. The attachment of the brush a8, which is the first cleaning tool, and the brush b9, which is the second cleaning tool, is performed via a bracket 22 having a hole 23 as shown in FIG. The bracket 22 is attached to the groove 19 in the positional relationship shown in FIG. When the bolt 20 for attaching the bracket 22 is loosened, the groove 19 is arbitrarily moved on the groove 19, and when the bolt 20 is tightened, the angle can be fixed and fixed on the spot. As a result, the brush a8 and the brush b9 can be moved and fixed to arbitrary positions.
第１洗浄具であるブラシａ８はチェーン５を洗浄するための洗浄具である。ブラシａ８を取付ける第１洗浄具取付け部材３０は、ボルト２０とナット２１とブラケット２２と丸パイプ２４で構成されている。図４に示すようにフレームa１６の溝位置Ｂに、図６に示すようにブラケット２２をボルト２０とナット２１で取付け、そのブラケット２２の穴２３にパイプ２４を取付ける。そうすることで丸パイプ２４はチェーン５に対して垂直方向に取付けられる。その丸パイプ２４にブラシａ８のフック部２５を引っ掛けてブラシａ８を固定する。ブラシａ８は螺旋状に捩れており、ブラシａ８の螺旋の中心部を通過するようにチェーン５に取付ける。チェーン５の全周囲をブラシａ８が取り囲むことで、チェーン５をくまなく清掃・洗浄することができる。 The brush a8 that is the first cleaning tool is a cleaning tool for cleaning the chain 5. The first cleaning tool mounting member 30 for attaching the brush a8 includes a bolt 20, a nut 21, a bracket 22, and a round pipe 24. As shown in FIG. 4, the bracket 22 is attached to the groove position B of the frame a <b> 16 with the bolt 20 and the nut 21 as shown in FIG. 6, and the pipe 24 is attached to the hole 23 of the bracket 22. By doing so, the round pipe 24 is attached to the chain 5 in the vertical direction. A hook 25 of the brush a8 is hooked on the round pipe 24 to fix the brush a8. The brush a8 is helically twisted and is attached to the chain 5 so as to pass through the center of the spiral of the brush a8. Since the brush a8 surrounds the entire periphery of the chain 5, the chain 5 can be cleaned and washed all over.
第２洗浄具であるブラシｂ９は後側ギア６を洗浄するための洗浄具である。図８に示すように、ブラシｂ９にはフレキシブルアーム１１が取り付けられている。ブラシｂ９を取付ける第２洗浄具取付け部材３１は、ボルト２０とナット２１とブラケット２２とフレキシブルアーム１１とで構成されている。図４に示すようにフレームa１６の溝位置Ａにブラケット２２をボルト２０とナット２１で図６に示すように取付ける。更にそのブラケット２２の穴２３にフレキシブルアーム１１を取付けることにより、ブラシｂ９をフレームa１６に取付ける。ブラシｂ９はフレキシブルアーム１１によって自在に動き、後側ギア６を洗浄しやすい位置で固定ができる。これにより、ブラシｂ９を後側ギア６に接触させて、後側ギア６の清掃・洗浄することができる。 The brush b9 as the second cleaning tool is a cleaning tool for cleaning the rear gear 6. As shown in FIG. 8, a flexible arm 11 is attached to the brush b9. The second cleaning tool mounting member 31 for attaching the brush b <b> 9 includes the bolt 20, the nut 21, the bracket 22, and the flexible arm 11. As shown in FIG. 4, the bracket 22 is attached to the groove position A of the frame a16 with bolts 20 and nuts 21 as shown in FIG. Further, by attaching the flexible arm 11 to the hole 23 of the bracket 22, the brush b9 is attached to the frame a16. The brush b9 can be freely moved by the flexible arm 11, and the rear gear 6 can be fixed at a position where it can be easily cleaned. As a result, the brush b9 can be brought into contact with the rear gear 6 so that the rear gear 6 can be cleaned and washed.
第３洗浄具であるブレード型ブラシｃ１０は前側ギア７を洗浄するための洗浄具であり、ブレード状の洗浄部材で構成されている。図９に示すように、ブレード型ブラシｃ１０にはＴ字形アーム２７が取付けられている。ブレード型ブラシｃ１０を取付ける第３洗浄具取付け部材３２は、ボルト２０とナット２１とＴ字形アーム２７とで構成されている。図４に示すようにフレームｂ１７の溝位置Ｅに、ブレード型ブラシｃ１０を取付けたＴ字形アーム２７を取付け穴２６を利用してボルト２０とナット２１で取付ける。次にブレード型ブラシｃ１０を前側ギア７に接触させる。ブレード型ブラシｃ１０はＴ字形アーム２７の支点部１４により前側ギア７の形状に沿う角度に調整される。その位置でボルト２０を締めこむことでブレード型ブラシｃ１０をフレームｂ１７に固定する。これにより、前側ギア７の清掃・洗浄がなされる。ブレード型ブラシｃ１０の幅は大小複数ある前側ギア７の取付け間隔より細く、またチェーン５が掛かっていない部位にブラシが設置されているので、ブレード型ブラシｃ１０の位置を変えることで大小複数ある前側ギア７の清掃・洗浄することができる。 A blade-type brush c10, which is a third cleaning tool, is a cleaning tool for cleaning the front gear 7, and is composed of a blade-shaped cleaning member. As shown in FIG. 9, a T-shaped arm 27 is attached to the blade-type brush c10. The third cleaning tool mounting member 32 to which the blade type brush c10 is attached is composed of a bolt 20, a nut 21, and a T-shaped arm 27. As shown in FIG. 4, a T-shaped arm 27 to which a blade type brush c <b> 10 is attached is attached to a groove position E of the frame b <b> 17 with a bolt 20 and a nut 21 using an attachment hole 26. Next, the blade-type brush c10 is brought into contact with the front gear 7. The blade-type brush c10 is adjusted to an angle along the shape of the front gear 7 by the fulcrum portion 14 of the T-shaped arm 27. The blade type brush c10 is fixed to the frame b17 by tightening the bolt 20 at that position. Thereby, the front gear 7 is cleaned and washed. The width of the blade-type brush c10 is narrower than the mounting interval of the front-side gear 7 having a plurality of sizes, and the brush is installed at a portion where the chain 5 is not hooked. The gear 7 can be cleaned and washed.
フレームｂ１７に例えば収縮性のあるバンド１３を取付け、チェーン５の下に置いた洗浄液入出トレー１２を挟み込んで固定する。チェーン５を駆動させながら洗浄液入出トレー１２の中央より後ろから洗浄液を投入することで、前側ギア７と後側ギア６にも洗浄液が伝播し、各部に取付けられた洗浄具によって清掃・洗浄がなされる。使用済みの洗浄液は洗浄液入出トレー１２に戻るが、チェーン５は前下がりに傾斜している為、洗浄液入出トレー１２の前方より排出される。 For example, a shrinkable band 13 is attached to the frame b17, and the cleaning liquid input / output tray 12 placed under the chain 5 is sandwiched and fixed. By supplying the cleaning liquid from behind the center of the cleaning liquid input / output tray 12 while driving the chain 5, the cleaning liquid propagates to the front gear 7 and the rear gear 6, and is cleaned and cleaned by the cleaning tool attached to each part. The The used cleaning liquid returns to the cleaning liquid inlet / outlet tray 12, but the chain 5 is inclined forward and is discharged from the front of the cleaning liquid inlet / outlet tray 12.
角度自在Ｖフレーム１は二つのフレームａ１６とフレームｂ１７の一方の端部をヒンジ１８により開閉自在に接続された構成となっているが、これには以下の理由がある。洗浄時に角度自在Ｖフレーム１を構成するフレームa１６とフレームｂ１７には互いに向かい合う方向にそれぞれのブラシからの反発力が発生している。フレームa１６とフレームｂ１７が接続されていない状態では、ブラシからの反発力に対抗する為に取付けに力を要する固定力の強いバンドを必要とするが、この２つのフレームを接続することで、それぞれのブラシからの反発力を相殺する効果が得られ、取付けに力を要する固定力の強いバンドを必要としなくなった。さらに２つのフレームを接続することで一方のフレームを固定するバンドがもう一方のフレームの傾きを防ぐ効果も得られる。
また、２つのフレームａ１６とフレームｂ１７が開閉自在である為、多種様々な自転車のシートステイ２とチェーンステイ３の内側の角度にも柔軟に対応できる。
さらに、全てのブラシが角度自在Ｖフレーム１に取付けられているので、自転車への脱着は角度自在Ｖフレーム１を外すだけで済むので。幅広い年代のユーザーにも容易に扱えるものとなっている。 The angular V-frame 1 has a structure in which one end of two frames a16 and b17 is connected to be freely opened and closed by a hinge 18 for the following reason. At the time of cleaning, repulsive forces from the respective brushes are generated in the frames a16 and b17 constituting the freely adjustable V-frame 1 in the direction facing each other. In the state where the frame a16 and the frame b17 are not connected, a band with a strong fixing force that requires a force for mounting is required to counter the repulsive force from the brush, but by connecting these two frames, The effect of offsetting the repulsive force from the brush was obtained, and a band with a strong fixing force that required force for installation was no longer required. Further, by connecting two frames, the band that fixes one frame can also prevent the other frame from tilting.
In addition, since the two frames a16 and b17 can be opened and closed, it is possible to flexibly cope with the angle inside the seat stay 2 and the chain stay 3 of various bicycles.
Furthermore, since all the brushes are attached to the angular V-frame 1, it is only necessary to remove the angular V-frame 1 for attachment to and removal from the bicycle. It can be easily handled by users of a wide range of ages.
本発明の自転車用洗浄装置は主に角度自在Ｖフレーム１と洗浄具取付け部材とブラシの３つで構成されている。洗浄具取付け部材は洗浄部位にブラシを洗浄に最適な位置・角度に固定する為に構成されている。またブラシと洗浄具取付け部材が分離していることで、ブラシが消耗した際にはブラシのみの交換で洗浄力を復帰できる為、使用者の洗浄具交換時の経済的負担ならびに必要最小限の廃棄部品に抑えることで地球環境への影響を最小限に留めることが可能となっている。 The bicycle cleaning apparatus according to the present invention is mainly composed of an angleable V frame 1, a cleaning tool mounting member, and a brush. The cleaning tool mounting member is configured to fix the brush at a position and angle optimal for cleaning at the cleaning site. In addition, since the brush and the cleaning tool mounting member are separated, the cleaning power can be restored by replacing only the brush when the brush is worn out. It is possible to keep the impact on the global environment to a minimum by limiting to waste parts.
なお上記実施の形態では、フレキシブルアーム１１とＴ字形アーム２７をそれぞれ洗浄具取付け部材３１と洗浄具取付け部材３２の構成部品として説明したが、フレキシブルアーム１１とＴ字形アーム２７をそれぞれブラシｂ９、ブレード型ブラシｃ１０と一緒に消耗部品として交換する場合には、フレキシブルアーム１１とＴ字形アーム２７をそれぞれ第２洗浄具及び第３洗浄具に含めてもよい。
