Abstract

PURPOSE:To forcibly dry rubbery gloves in a short time by providing two small blowers having a timer and electric heaters, and providing a hooking tool hooking the insertion port of the rubbery glove or the like on the nozzle of the blast tube of each blower. CONSTITUTION:Small blowers B1 and B2 incorporate an electric heater respectively, and their operating times can be set by a timer T. A selection switch 4 operates one blower B1 and both blowers B1 and B2. A transfer switch 5 transfers blowers B into 'off', 'cold air', and 'hot air', and a hooking tool 7 pinches the insertion port of a rubbery glove 6 inserted to the nozzle 3 of the blast tube 2 of each blower B to hook it to the nozzle 3. Opening/closing devices constituted of solenoids or the like in dampers 12 are connected to the timer T. They are opened or closed when the preset time of the timer T expires, and a small quantity of powder is fed into gloves 6 through nozzles 3 and automatically diffused by the excess blast.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a dryer for gloves, etc., which is equipped with a small blower, such as a hair dryer, and which automatically dries rubber gloves after washing with water. .

Conventional technology For example, washing machines with dryers and dishwashers used in general households are useful when disposing of items that need to be washed and dried after they have accumulated to a certain extent. In the case of items that are difficult to wash or dry separately, for example, it is common practice to wash them by hand and then hang them to dry naturally.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, articles such as rubber gloves are difficult to dry naturally;
Moisture remains on the inner surface, or the inner surface often becomes sticky during the drying process. For this reason, there has been a demand for a dryer that can easily and quickly dry these types of items even if the amount of washing is small, so that they can be prepared for reuse.

Means for Solving the Problems Therefore, the present invention includes two small blowers equipped with a timer and an electric heater, and a fitting hole for a rubber glove or the like to be fitted into the tube opening of the blower tube of each small blower. A dryer for gloves, etc., equipped with a hook for hanging.

Function: The dryer of the present invention configured as described above is used when drying a single item, such as a pair of rubber gloves, after washing with water, and forcibly blowing air to dry the item in a single period of time.

In addition, in the present invention, the small blower is equipped with a powder feeder that feeds a material (including talc, etc.) into the blast cylinder at the end of the set time of the timer, etc., during the drying process of rubber gloves. This has the advantage that it prevents the sticky state that occurs with gloves and makes it easier to put on the gloves when reusing them.

Example Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, 1 is a board that can be attached to a wall surface, for example, and B1 and B2 are two small blowers that are integrated on the left and right sides of the surface of the board 1, with the mouths 3 of the blower tubes 2 facing downward, respectively. .

Each of the small blowers B1 and B2 has a built-in electric heater, and the operating time can be set using a timer T. 4 is a selection switch for operating one blower Bl and both blowers B1 and B2; 5 is a switch for turning off blower B and switching between cold air and hot air; 6 is a switch for opening 3 of each blower B's blower tube 2. The fitted rubber glove 7 is a hook provided to hold the fitting opening 8 of the rubber glove 6 and hang it on the tube opening 3. Reference numeral 9 denotes a powder feeder attached to the lower center of the substrate 1, which is equipped with a bottom surface IO that slopes both left and right, and continues to the end of the bottom surface 10. The damper 12 provided in the middle m1 is connected to the timer T with a switching device (not shown) consisting of a solenoid, etc., and is opened and closed when the set time of the timer T ends, and a small amount of powder material is released from the tube opening 3. , is supplied into the glove 6 and is used so as to be automatically diffused by the remaining air blowing force.It can also be opened and closed manually.

It goes without saying that the dryer of the present invention can be used not only for rubber gloves 6, but also as a simple dryer for ordinary cloth gloves, cylindrical knitted fabrics such as socks, and the like.

Effects of the Invention According to the dryer of the present invention configured as described above and used as described above, it is possible to forcibly dry rubber gloves in a short period of time, which conventionally had to rely on natural drying. Therefore, it is extremely useful to install it in general homes as well as in workplaces where it is necessary to wear rubber gloves at all times, such as when doing laundry work.
