Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a duster for removing dust, washing or waxing painted objects such as automobile bodies.

Various types of bristle dusters have been proposed, but these conventional bristle dusters are used exclusively for dust removal, washing, etc.

In other words, dust removal, washing, waxing, etc. were performed by changing the dusting method. In this way, it is inconvenient to change the flutter for each task, and it is also necessary to prepare a dedicated flutter for each task.

Therefore, the inventors focused their efforts on the development of a duster that can remove dust, cleanse, and apply wax by paying attention to powdered wax that has been developed in recent years.

The present invention was developed under these circumstances, and its purpose is to provide a duster that can perform dust removal, washing, and waxing all at once. Another object of the present invention is to provide a duster that can selectively supply or cut off powdered wax and washing water. Furthermore, an object of the present invention is to propose a fluff that can be expanded and contracted as needed and is easy to use.

Further, the gist of the present invention is to provide a long base rod having a hollow part and a gripping part and having a large number of through holes in the tip part, and a feather-like structure in which only the ends of a large number of twisted yarns made of long fibers are formed into feather-like shapes. A part of the feather that is separated and attached to the outer periphery of the tip of the long base rod is connected to a hose that is attached to the rear end of the long base rod (slides and is connected to a water supply source such as water supply). Each of the embodiments will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a hair duster (10) according to the present invention. This hair duster (lO) is a long base rod (20
), the feather part (30) attached to the outer periphery of the tip of this long base rod (20), and the feather part (30) attached to the rear end of the long base rod (20).
and a plug (40) attached thereto. As shown in FIG. 2, the long base rod (20) is tubular and has a hollow part (R), and the tip thereof has a large number of through holes (21) to (21). is drilled. In addition, a part of the feather (30
) is spirally provided with a protrusion (22) that guides the winding. Furthermore, the rear end of the long base rod (20) is a grip part (25) that bulges toward the rear end, and the rear end of this grip part (25) has a female thread part (23). A plug (40) is inserted into this female thread (23).
is screwed on.

As shown in Figure 143, the feather part (30) is made by cutting twisted yarn (31) made of long fibers to a predetermined size and raising only each free end to form a feather-like raised part (32). A fixing part (33) is formed by fixing these twisted yarns (31) with tape (33a). Therefore, this feather part (30) is attached to the long base rod (20) with its fixed portion (33) guided by the protrusion (22) of the long base rod (20).
It is wound around the tip of the Note that one end of the fixed part (33) of this feather part (30) is connected to the long base rod (20
), and the other end is fixed by a defining member (3Oa).

As shown in Fig. 2, the plug (40) has a female threaded part (41) at one end for connecting to the female threaded part (23) of the long base rod (20), and has a female threaded part (41) at the other end. has a hose outlet (42) connected to a water supply source such as a tap. In addition, a through hole (43) is provided in the center of the plug (40) in the axial direction, and this through hole (43) connects the hose and the hollow portion (R) of the long base rod (20). communicate.

When you want to use the flutter (10) configured in this way to remove dust from a painted object such as an automobile body, hold the grip part (25) of the long base rod (20) and use it to remove dust from the painted object. Just sweep the surface. , Also, this flutter (10)
If you want to clean the painted object by using the plug (
40) to supply cleaning water into the hollow part (R) of the long base rod (20), and then perform the same operation as dust removal. In this case 1, the cleaning water supplied into the hollow part (R) flows through each through hole (21) of the long base rod (20).
It goes out through the feather, is evenly dispersed by the feather part (30), and is poured onto the object to be painted.

Furthermore, if it is desired to perform waxing with powdered wax using this duster (10), the hose is removed from the plug (30). And long base rod (20)
Remove the plug (30) from the long base rod (20).
Powdered wax is stored in the hollow part (R), and the rear end of the long base rod (20) forms a lid body (26) as shown in FIG.
Close using . In this way, as in the case of storing powder wax in the hollow part (R) and performing I' IN removal, the surface of the painted object is covered with a feather part (30 mm) of the duster (1o).
) to perform waxing. In this case, since the base of each twisted yarn (31) of the feather part (30) is not raised, the hollow part (R
) The powder wax within ) easily comes out to the feather-like raised portion (32) and is then captured by the raised portion (32) of each twisted yarn (31). Therefore, waxing of painted objects can be done evenly and without wasting powder wax.
The base of each twisted yarn (31) constituting the feather part (30) remains as a twisted yarn and is not raised, and only the free end of each twisted yarn (31) is feathered and raised to form a raised part (32). Therefore, even if this fluff cloth (1o) is used for a long period of time, the lengths am of each twisted yarn (31) will not become entangled with each other and form a pill. Even if pilling occurs in some feathers (30), each twisted yarn (31
) (raised part (32)), it is easy to loosen this pill.

Here, a method for manufacturing the feather part (3o) will be explained.

First, as shown in Figures 6 and 7, a single twisted yarn (31a) made of long fibers is wound in a spiral around two mutually parallel wooden guides (34a) and (34b) at predetermined intervals. I'll put it on. The twisted yarn (31a) made of long fibers is preferably made of nylon long fiber filaments, and has a diameter of 1,000 to 1
800 denier is preferable. By this winding, a part of the feather (3
0) is determined. That is, Ryoki Ito (34a) (
34b) L7) Spacing determines the diameter of the feather part (3o). Therefore, by changing the distance between the guides (34a) and (34b), the diameter of the feather part (3o) can be changed.

In addition, according to this method, it is also possible to change the spacing and density of the twisted yarns in the feather part (3o). That is.

This can be adjusted by changing the spacing between two wraps of the twisted yarn (31a) between the two guides (34a) and (34b).

Next, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, the twisted yarn (3
1a), apply the tape (33a) to the center of the twisted yarn (31
Sewn together with a) to fix the twisted threads to each other.

The reason why the tape (33a) is sewn is to prevent the twisted yarn (31a), which was wound at predetermined intervals around both guides (34a) and (34b) in the previous step, from shifting.

Then, both sides of the twisted yarn (31a) are cut in the direction along the kite to form free ends (32a). The cutting can be done by applying a cutter to the double-sided power points (3'4a) (34b).

Next, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the twisted yarn (31a
) is folded in half at the center of the fixed tape (33a), and the tape (33a) and each twisted thread (31) are further sewn. In this way, tape (3=
3 a) and sewn the fixed part (33) and the free end (
32a) and a twisted yarn (31) having a feather member (30b).

Then, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, only the free ends (32a) of each twisted yarn (31) of the feather member (30b) are
The fibers are dissociated from each other and raised to form a feather material (30
b) is formed into a cotton-like shape as a whole. Through this raising process, a soft feather part (30) with elasticity can be made, similar to fluffing using feathers.

The raising can be carried out by scratching the feather member (30b) from the fixed part (33) toward the free end (32a) with the tip of a comb-shaped steel wire. Since the twisted yarn (31) is a long fiber made of synthetic fiber, there is no need for the fiber to come out even if it is scratched relatively strongly. For example, if a wire roll brush or the like is used, the work can be carried out continuously by sequentially passing the feather members through the rotating brush portion.

Finally, attach the brushed feather material (30b) to the long base rod (
20). This attachment is done by fitting one end of the fixing part (33) of the feather member (30b) into the slit (24) provided in the long base rod (20) and fixing it, as shown in FIG. Then, it is wound around the long base rod (20) along the protrusion (22) formed in a spiral shape, and the other end of the fixing part (33) is fixed by the fixing member (3Oa).

Next, a hair duster (100) which is another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. This hair duster (roo) consists of the long base rod (20) of the hair duster (10) described above with both inner and outer tubes so that the through hole can be opened and closed, and the grip part (25) is It is made to be expandable and contractible.

The outer shape is approximately the same as that of the rear end flange (125) of 0). Further, a threaded portion (133a) is formed at the rear end of the funnel portion (133), and the plug (40) can be screwed into it. The fixing member (132) is cylindrical, and has a tapered part (132a) formed inside its rear end, and a threaded part (132b) formed behind this tapered part (+32a). . The above-mentioned gripping tube (131) holds the fixing member (132) in the gripping tube (13).
By screwing into the threaded part (131b) of 1), the tip (with a split end) of the 1 gripping tube (131) is fixed to the inner tube (1) by the tapered part (132a) of the fixing member (132).
2Q) and is securely fixed to the inner tube (120) side.

In this embodiment, a pole (#v4 ball) is placed inside the hollow part (R) of the inner tube (120) constituting the flutter (+00), as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. (150
) is accommodated. This is done by moving the pole (150) with a medium by shaking a hair duster ((100)) and moving the pole (150) to the hollow part (R).
This is to allow the powdered wax inside to move evenly into the hollow part (R).

Next, the case of assembling the flutter (100) as described above will be explained. First, attach the feather part (30) to the outer circumference of the outer tube (IIG), and then insert the grip tube (131) of the grip part (130) from the tip of the inner tube (120) from the rear end, and fix the fixing member (132). Screw on properly. The compression spring (140) is inserted into the outer tube (110) from the rear end opening and brought into contact with the locking member (115).

After that, the inner tube (120) is inserted from its tip to the outer tube (11).

Also, the pin (122) is located in either the slit (St) or (St), but may be placed in the inner tube (+2) as required.
0) in the insertion direction and rotate it, the sulin) (S
:]) to the opposite side (allowing relative rotation of the inner tube (120) and outer tube (110)). In addition, each slit (St) (St) and pin (+
22) and the position is 1. For example, the pin (+22) is
St), both inside and outside W(+20), (1
10) so that the through holes (113) and (12, 3) communicate with each other, while when the pin (122) comes to the slit (St) side, the communication between the through holes (113) and (123) is cut off. This is set in advance. As a result, the outer tube (1
10) and the inner tube (120) are reliably held in a predetermined positional relationship, and their relative relationship can be kept unchanged even if the flutter (+00) is used with considerable force. Furthermore, the through holes (113) and (123) can be smoothly communicated and blocked as necessary. These things are;
The ease of use of the duster can be greatly improved.

By the way, the above-mentioned hair duster is used as follows. First, the plug (40) of the gripping part (130) and the inner tube (1
20) and remove the rubber plug (124) from the inner tube (120).
The above-mentioned powdered wax is put into the hollow part (R).

After that, remove the rubber stopper (124) and plug (40).
When dusting a painted object with a bristle duster (100), the inner tube (120) and the outer tube (110) are rotated relative to each other against the biasing force of the compression spring (140). The communication between the through holes (113) and (123) is cut off (the pin (122) is placed in the sulin) (St).

). If a bristle duster is used as it is, only dust can be removed without leaking the powdered wax inside the hollow part (R) to the outside. Next, when waxing the dust-removed painted object, both the inner and outer pipes (120) and (110)
is relatively rotated in the opposite direction to that described above to open each through hole (113
) and (123) (so that the pin (122) is in the Surin (St)), and the flutter (10
0) shake a little. Then, the powdered wax in the hollow part (R) flows out from each through hole (113) and adheres to the fibers forming the feather part (30). At this time, the pole (150) in the hollow part (R) plays the role of evenly discharging the powdered wax, so that the powdered wax evenly adheres to the part of the feather (30). This flutter (＋
When the surface of the coated object is brushed with 00), the powder wax is applied to the feather-like raised part (32) constituting the feather part (3o).

In addition, there are cases where you want to use the flutter with a longer length (Figure 15 is a cross-sectional view when it is at its shortest length).
In that case, proceed as follows. The fixing member (+32) that fixes the grip tube (131) to the inner tube (120) is rotated to release the fixation, and the grip tube (131) is fixed to the inner tube (120).
20) Pull it out. After that, by rotating the fixing member (132) and fixing the grip tube (131) to the inner tube (120), the flutter can be lengthened by the required length.

In addition, in this embodiment, the notch (1) of the outer tube (110)
18) in which one end of one slit (St) is opened outward, but this is different from the method of fixing the pin (122) to the inner tube (120) side in this embodiment, that is, when screwing. However, the present invention is not limited to the case where the pin (122) is previously implanted in the inner tube (+20) by welding or the like. That is, the pin (122) is connected to the inner tube (
120) side, the outer tube (11
The pin (122) is inserted into the notch (11B) of 0) from the open side of the slot 7) (Sl).

Furthermore, both the inner and outer tubes (1+
o), (, +20) between one end of the compression spring (
The outer tube (110) is urged to move in one axis direction relative to the inner tube (120) through the outer tube (140).
A pin (+
22) form mutually parallel slits (Su) (S2) that can be selectively moved inside, and a stopper member (narrow) (+1?) is provided at the other end of the outer tube (110).
) is fixed, thereby ensuring that the inner tube (120) and outer tube (110) are held in place.

Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a duster that can remove dust, wash, and wax a painted object, such as an automobile body, all by itself. Further, it is possible to selectively supply or cut off powdered wax and washing water, and it is possible to provide an easy-to-use flutter that can be expanded and contracted as necessary.
