Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable easy washing in a short time by fitting a chuck with a torque controlling mechanism to the tip of a flexible shaft and a rotating brush to the chuck. CONSTITUTION:A brush 1 for a bath is composed of an electrometer 2, a flexible shaft 3, a chuck 4, a remote controller 5 and a rotating brush 6a. The flexible shaft 3 connected to the shaft of the electromotor 2 has such a length that the brush 6a reaches various parts of the washing place 9 and the bathtub 10 of the bath 7 and the shaft 3 is covered with a hose made of a stainless steel sheet as a flexible pipe 11 all over the entire length. A massager may further be fitted to the chuck 4. Easy body washing in the bath is enabled.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to fufushi, which is often used for making silkworms.

<Conventional technology> To wash each part of the body in the bathroom, soap is applied to a towel or sponge, which is held in the hand and moved back and forth. You can also clean the bathtub by applying detergent to a bathtub sponge or brush, holding it in your hand and moving it back and forth.

<Invention or problem to be solved> It takes considerable force and time to thoroughly wash each part of the body by holding a towel or sponge in a hand and moving it back and forth. Furthermore, holding a flage or sponge in hand and moving it back and forth to wash the bathtub, washing floor, walls, etc. similarly requires effort and time. Healthy people don't feel it much, but for people with low physical strength, poor health, or physical infirmities, the weight of F1 becomes a big burden, and they may even feel pain.

Kinoe IJ's ``first goal'' is to provide a bathroom brush that can be used to wash both the body and the bathtub in a very easy and short time.

Means for Solving the Problems> The bathroom brush according to the present invention connects an electric motor with a variable speed function to a flexible shaft covered with a flexible full pipe with a length that reaches into the washing area and bathtub. A holder having a chuck with a torque limiting mechanism attached to the tip of a flexible shaft and covering the outer periphery of the chuck, a remote controller for a No. 767 electric motor disposed on the outer periphery of the holder, and a plurality of types to be attached to the chuck. It is equipped with a rotating brush.

<Made by TI> Attach a rotating brush suitable for each target area to be cleaned, such as the body, bathtub, or washing area, to the chuck, hold the holder in your hand, and adjust the rotation speed of the electric motor with the remote controller. Cleaning is performed simply by pressing the rotating brush against the target area. During this cleaning, the rotation speed of the rotating brush can also be adjusted by operating the remote controller. - If for some reason abnormal torque is applied to the co-rotating brush, the torque limiting mechanism attached to the chuck will work and the rotation will stop immediately. The entire length of the flexible shaft is covered with a flexible pipe, so there is no risk of towels or other objects getting tangled.

<Example> The present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, the bathroom brush 1 according to this embodiment is
7ft dynamic motor 2. Flexible shaft 3, chuck 4. It consists of a remote controller 5 and a rotating brush 6. The electric motor 2 is a single-phase 9gl flow type with an electric speed change function, has a built-in speed reducer, and is installed on the floor of the dressing room 8 adjacent to the bathroom 7. The flexible shaft 3 connected to the shaft of the electric motor 2 is connected to the washing area 9 and the bathtub 10 of the bathroom 7.
It is long enough to reach various parts of the interior, and is made of stainless steel wire wound into a coil shape and laminated. The entire length is covered with a flexible pipe 11 made of stainless steel.

As shown in FIG. 2, the chuck 4 has a built-in spring for shaft engagement LL, similar to the structure used in a bit exchange type driver, and has a shaft fitting hole 13 with a groove 12 at the top and bottom in FIG. Equipped with. The torque limiting mechanism 14 attached to this chuck 4 has a structure in which an input ratchet 15 engages with an output ratchet 17 having a coaxial shaft whose back is pressed by a coil spring 16. The length of the coil spring 16 is adjusted with a nut 18 to adjust the transmitted torque. A cylindrical holder 19 made of hard plastic covers the outer circumferences of the chuck 4 and the torque limiting mechanism 14 with a threaded cap 20 attached thereto.

A remote controller 5 for the electric motor 2 is attached to the tip of the halter 19, and the [01 rotation speed of the electric motor 2 is controlled in four stages by a slide lever 21. The remote controller 5 is a low-voltage control circuit and has a completely waterproof structure. The rotating brush 6 includes a shaft 23 having a protruding pawl 22 that fits into the shaft fitting hole 13 of the chuck 4, and is available in a plurality of types, which can be used depending on the purpose. Figure 1 ['i! The one-turn brush 6a is a cylindrical sponge brush used for cleaning various parts of the body. The rotary brush 6b shown in FIG. 3, which has nylon single fibers flocked in a cylindrical shape, cleans the bathtub IO and the floor of the washing area 9. Moreover, the rotating brush 6C shown in FIG.
It is used for cleaning small items in the bathroom 7.

Fourth, the massager 24 shown in FIG.
It can be attached to and driven.

This massager 24 has two parallel shafts 25a, 25.
b are connected by a gear 26, and eccentric disks 28 having a sliding ring 27 on the outer periphery are attached to these shafts 25a and 25b side by side.

The entire structure is covered with a soft plastic sheet 29, which drives a shaft 25a. This massager 2
Place your legs, arms, etc. on top of 4 and perform pine surge.

The bathroom brush 1 constructed as described above is used for cleaning by changing the attachment of the rotary brush 6 depending on the purpose, such as body washing, bathtub washing, etc., and adjusting the rotation speed. Alternatively, the massager 24 is driven to perform pine surgery. Therefore, it can be washed extremely easily and in a short time, and pine surges can be done easily.

In addition to the above-mentioned embodiments, the bathroom brush of the present invention can be modified in various ways.
Application is possible. For example, the axes of a rotating brush may be two parallel axes, and one of them may be connected to a gear to rotate in the opposite direction. In this way, when the rotating brush is pressed against the body or the bathtub wall, it will not run away, making it easier to use. Furthermore, it is easy to use an attachment equipped with a mechanism for converting rotational movement into reciprocating motion to create a reciprocating brush, which may be convenient depending on the application.

If a felt disc is attached to the chuck of this bathroom brush, it can easily be used as a cleaning tool for furniture or other items.

<Effects of the Invention> According to the present invention, washing one's body in a bathroom, washing a bathtub, etc. can be carried out extremely easily by a short servant.
