Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a broom used for cleaning a floor or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, a broom has a cleaning body, which is made by bundling materials made of, for example, sprue fibers or synthetic resin, attached to the tip of a handle.

[0003]

By the way, with the above broom, when cleaning the floor surface, etc., it is possible to wipe away the dust only on the floor surface, but for example, it sticks to the floor surface of the factory. It is very difficult to collect the scraps of paper on which waste oil adheres and metal cutting powder containing oil that adheres to the floor surface together by the cleaning body, and therefore, conventionally, a spatula etc. has been separately used. There was no choice but to peel off a piece of paper or the like from the floor surface using.

The present invention has been developed in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to easily and easily clean a paper piece clinging to the floor surface, which has been difficult to be swept conventionally. To provide a broom.

[0005]

According to the present invention, in order to achieve the above object, a wire rod 20 having flexibility at the tip of the handle 1 is provided.
In a broom provided with a brush-like body 2 formed by bundling the brush-like bodies 2, a cleaning body 3 formed on one side surface of the brush-like body 2 is made of a material 30 having flexibility higher in rigidity than the wire 20 of the brush-like body 2. And the lower end of the brush-like body 2 is projected below the lower end of the cleaning body 3.

[0006]

According to the broom of the present invention, when sweeping general dust not adhering to the floor surface F, the lower part of the brush-like body 2 protruding below the lower end of the cleaning body 3 While the dust can be collected with the brush-like body 2, it is difficult to sweep the dust off, for example, a piece of paper clinging to the floor F or dust such as metal cutting powder attached to the floor F. In this case, the lower part of the brush-like body 2 is elastically deformed in a curved shape, and the lower end of the cleaning body 3 is pressed against the floor surface F, and the cleaning body 3 is slid against the floor surface F. The dust can be scraped off at the lower end of the cleaning body 3 simply by moving it.

[0007]

EXAMPLE The broom shown in FIG. 1 is basically a handle 1, a brush-like body 2 provided at one end of the handle 1 in the length direction, and a cleaning body 3 provided on one side of the brush-like body 2. It consists of and.

The handle 1 is made of a synthetic resin round pipe material or bamboo material, and the brush-like body 2 is, as is known,
A wire 20 having a predetermined length and made of a fiber of a sprue is bundled into a substantially plate shape.

On the other hand, the cleaning body 3 is made of a flexible material 30 having a higher rigidity than the wire rod 20 made of sprue which constitutes the brush-like body 2. In the embodiment shown in the drawings, As the material 30, a plurality of bamboos cut into a strip shape slightly shorter than the entire length of the wire 20 is used, and the plurality of material 30 made of bamboo is provided along one side surface of the brush-like body 2. These materials 30 are arranged in parallel to form the cleaning body 3, and the upper end of the cleaning body 3 is fixed to one end of the handle 1 along with the upper end of the brush-like body 2. .

Specifically, a fixing piece 4 for fixing to the handle 1
1 and two holding frames 42 of the brush-like body 2 and the cleaning body 3 and having a substantially T-shape in a front view are prepared, and the fixing pieces 41 of these both supporting frames 4 are provided on the handle 1. Nailed at one end in the length direction, both holding pieces 42 are opposed to each other with a predetermined gap, and the brush-shaped body 2 and the cleaning provided adjacent to one side surface of the brush-shaped body 2 by these both holding pieces 42. Body 3
The upper end of the brush-like body 2 and the lower end of the brush-like body 2 to a predetermined dimension L (for example, L = 2 cm to
2.5 cm) was projected.

In the embodiment, the material 30 made of bamboo is used.
4 is divided into a plurality of lines along the length direction while leaving a part of the upper end side thereof, as shown in FIG.

When the floor surface F is swept using the broom having the above-mentioned structure, as shown schematically in FIG. 5, the cleaning body 3 is usually directed in the sweeping direction (the arrow W direction in FIG. 5). When sweeping general dust that has not adhered to the floor surface F, dust is collected at the lower part of the brush-like body 2 protruding below the lower end of the cleaning body 3. is there.

On the other hand, the brush-like body 2 is difficult to be swept away, for example, a piece of paper sticking to the floor F with waste oil attached,
Similarly, in the case of removing metal cutting powder containing oil attached to the floor surface F, the brush 1 is pressed by pressing the handle 1 toward the floor surface, as shown schematically in FIG. The lower part of 2 is elastically deformed into a curved shape, and the lower end of the cleaning body 3 is pressed against the floor surface F, and the cleaning body 3 is moved to the floor surface F.
The paper piece or the like is scraped at the lower end of the cleaning body 3 by sliding it against the cleaning body 3, and the scraped dust is removed by the cleaning body 3.
In addition, they are swept and collected by the brush-like body 2 located behind the cleaning body 3.

Further, as shown schematically in FIG. 6, the broom described above has a brush-like body 2 even when the brush-like body 2 is leaned against the floor F for a long period of time when not in use. Body 23
Since one side surface of the brush-like body 2 is held by the cleaning body 3, there are few problems that the brush-like body 2 is deformed into a curved shape as in the conventional case.

In the above embodiments, the fibers of the sprue are used as the wire 20 of the brush-like body 2, but the invention is not limited to this, and a flexible wire made of, for example, a synthetic resin is used. May be.

Further, in the above-mentioned embodiments, bamboo cut into strips is used as the material of the cleaning body 3, but it is not limited to this. For example, a strip of flexible synthetic resin is formed. A plate may be used.

[0017]

As described above, according to the present invention, the brush-like body 2 is formed by bundling the flexible wire 20 at the tip of the handle 1.
In the broom provided with, a cleaning body 3 made of a flexible material 30 having higher rigidity than the wire 20 of the brush-like body 2 is provided on one side surface of the brush-like body 2, and Since the lower end of the body 2 is made to project below the lower end of the cleaning body 3, general dust not adhering to the floor surface F is projected below the lower end of the cleaning body 3. Although it can be swept and collected at the bottom of the sheet 2, it is difficult to sweep it with the brush 2 such as a piece of paper sticking to the floor F or dust such as metal cutting powder adhered to the floor F. In this case, the lower part of the brush-like body 2 is elastically deformed in a curved shape, and the lower end of the cleaning body 3 is pressed against the floor surface F while sliding the cleaning body 3 against the floor surface F. The paper piece or the like can be easily scraped off the floor surface by the lower end of the cleaning body 3 only by It is coming.

Further, according to the broom of the present invention, the brush-like body 2
Even if the lower end of the brush-like body is leaned against the floor surface for a long time, one side of the brush-like body 23 is held by the cleaning body 3, so that the brush-like body 2 is curved as in the conventional case. There are few problems that it deforms into a shape, so it can be used for a long time without paying attention to the storage posture.
