Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to an improvement of the core of a brush washer used for washing oil painting brushes with brush washing oil.

BACKGROUND ART As illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7, a brush washer for oil painting includes a brush washing bucket 1 in which brush washing oil (mainly composed of benzine-based solvent) is placed, and a partition inside the brush washing bucket 1. It consists of a core 2 which is placed as a holder, and is designed to be used by filling the core 2 with brush cleaning oil to a level slightly above the bottom. Note that a rod-shaped body 3 for squeezing the brush is provided on the upper part of the core 2.

By the way, the structure of the core 2 of the brush washer is as follows:
As shown in the figure, a bottom plate 5 has a large circular hole 6 (about 5 mm in diameter) in the bottom of a cylindrical body 4 made of a tin plate.
or as shown in Figure 7, the core 2
The most typical example is one in which the entire structure is formed into a cage shape using wire mesh 7.

Problems that the invention aims to solve However, with the former, not only can the paint on the brush be washed off only through the bottom plate 5 with holes 6, but the holes 6 are so large that the tip of the brush can penetrate through the holes 6. There was a drawback that when the brush was pulled back, the burr on the back side of the hole 6 (generated by punching the hole) could damage the tip of the brush.

In addition, in the latter case, since the entire core 2 is made up of the wire mesh 7, the wire mesh 7 is easily deformed by the force of pressing it against the core to wash the brush. I had a problem with the tip getting caught and falling off.

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention was devised in view of the above problems, and the cylindrical body and bottom plate constituting the core are
It is characterized in that it is formed by a perforated plate having a large number of small holes of ~3 mm, and that the inner surface of the cylindrical body and/or the bottom plate is provided with irregularities.

Embodiments Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a core 10 according to the invention.
The core 10 consists of a cylindrical main body 11 and a bottom plate 12 provided at the bottom thereof, both of which are made of a perforated stainless steel plate with many small holes 13 of 2 to 3 mm in diameter. There is. The cylindrical main body 11 is formed with a large number of longitudinally extending protrusions 14 inward to form unevenness on its inner surface, while the bottom plate 12 is bent into a corrugated plate shape 15 to form an uneven inner surface. is uneven.

FIGS. 3 and 4 show that thin wire rods 16 such as wires are annularly arranged on the inner surface of the cylindrical body 11 in multiple stages at regular intervals in the axial direction, and fixedly protruding from the inner surface. An example is shown in which the surface is formed in an uneven manner. Further, FIG. 5 shows the wire rod 16 being connected to the cylindrical body 1.
1 shows an example in which it is disposed obliquely and fixedly protruding on the inner surface of the container. Note that the cylindrical main body 11 and/or the bottom plate 12
It goes without saying that the unevenness provided on the inner surface is not limited to the structure of the above embodiment. Further, in the illustrated embodiment, the cylindrical body 11 is cylindrical, but it can be made into a cylindrical body having various shapes such as a square, an oval, an ellipse, and others. Further, although the core 10 is made of a stainless steel plate, it may be made of aluminum or other metal materials, or the entire core may be integrally molded from a plastic material.

Reference numeral 17 denotes a rod-shaped body for squeezing the brush.If two rod-shaped bodies 17 are provided in parallel on the upper part of the cylindrical main body 11 as shown in the figure, the brush can be squeezed easily, making it very convenient to use.

The core 10 having the above structure is inserted into the brush washing bucket 1 and used as an inner partition in the same manner as the conventional product.

Effects of the invention As mentioned above, the cylindrical body and bottom plate of the core of the present invention are formed by a perforated plate with many small holes of 2 to 3 mm in diameter. The inner wall surface of the brush can be used to wash the brush, and since the diameter of the small hole is small, the bristles of the brush will not be damaged. Furthermore, since the inner surface of the cylindrical body and/or the bottom plate is uneven, by pressing the tip of the brush along the uneven surface, paint on the brush can be effectively washed off. can. Furthermore, the entire core is strong and does not lose its shape.

In particular, when the cylindrical main body and the bottom plate are made of perforated plates of stainless steel as shown in the examples, not only is the corrosion resistance excellent, but there is also a feeling of weight, which has the effect of further increasing the commercial value.
