【考案の属する技術分野】
本考案は、ジョッキを洗浄するためのブラシに関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、ジョッキの洗浄作業では、内側をブラシで洗い、外側はスポンジ等で洗っている。ブラシは、ジョッキのほぼ70mmの内径に対応するほぼ80mmの外径を有する1本のものである。このブラシは、毛足がほぼ40mmと比較的長いので、毛材の弾力が弱く、短時間で効率的にジョッキの洗浄を行うことができないし、ジョッキの外側面の洗浄作業には使用しにくいという問題点がある。
【0003】
【考案が解決しようとする課題】
従って、本考案は、毛材に十分な弾力があり、短時間で効率的にジョッキの洗浄を行うことができ、ジョッキの外側面の洗浄作業にも使用できるジョッキ洗浄ブラシを提供することを課題としている。
【0004】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記課題を解決するため、本考案においては、ほぼU字状に湾曲する把手2の両端に棒状のブラシ本体3を取り付けてジョッキ洗浄ブラシ1を構成する。ブラシ本体3は、一対の金属心線6の相互間に毛材7を挟んで撚り、金属心線6周りに螺旋状に毛材7を配して成る。ブラシ本体3の一対が互いに毛先を接触させる間隔で把手2に取り付けられる。把手2は、ステンレススチール製の管材4を湾曲させて構成し、湾曲部に圧搾成型による扁平部4aを設ける。一対のブラシ本体3をジョッキ8内に挿入し、内側を洗浄する。一対のブラシ本体3を並べた幅寸法がジョッキ8の内径にほぼ対応する。ジョッキ8の内径が70mmとすれば、ブラシ本体の毛足の長さは20mm程度で、良好な弾力を保持する。一対のブラシ本体3間にジョッキ8の側壁を挟めば、ジョッキ8の側壁の内外を同時に洗浄できる。この場合、一対のブラシ本体3間に、把手2の扁平な湾曲部による良好な弾性をもってジョッキ8の側壁を挟み、効率的に洗浄することができる。把手2の素材である1本のステンレススチール製管材4の中央部を圧搾して扁平部4aを形成し、この扁平部4aを円弧状に屈曲させることで容易に把手2を形成できる。
金属心線6の先端部を、基端寄りの位置から把手2の延伸面に対して一方へ直交方向に膨出させ、これより先端側の位置で反対方向へ戻るように円弧状に湾曲させて終結させれば、ブラシ1の先端部に放射状に毛材7が配置され、ジョッキ8の側壁の最下部付近から底部にわたる断面円弧状の部位を効率的に洗浄できる。
ブラシ本体3の金属心線6の基端部を把手2の両端に挿入して、かしめ止めすることで容易に両者を結合できる。
ブラシ本体3の金属心線6の基端部を把手2の両端に着脱自在に挿入するようにすれば、消耗品であるブラシ本体3を把手2と別個に交換することができて経済的である。
【0005】
【考案の実施の形態】
本考案の実施の一形態を図面を参照して説明する。図1は洗浄ブラシの正面図、図2は側面図、図3は平面図、図4は底面図、図5は心線材の正面図、図6は心線材の側面図、図7は洗浄ブラシの使用状態の正面図、図8は洗浄ブラシの他の使用状態の正面図である。
図1乃至図4において、洗浄ブラシ1は、U字状の把手2と、把手2の両端に結合してほぼ平行に棒状伸びた一対のブラシ本体3とを具備する。
【0006】
把手2は、図6,図7に示すように、ステンレススチール製の管材4で構成される。直線状の管材4の中間部を圧搾して扁平部4aを形成し、この扁平部4aを円弧状に湾曲させてU字状に形成する。把手2の形成は容易である。扁平部4aにより、把手2を握ったときに、それの両端部の相互間を弾性的に拡大、縮小できる。管材4を合成樹脂製の柔軟なカバー5で被覆して把手2が構成される。
【0007】
ブラシ本体3は、金属製の心線6の周りに毛材7を植設して構成されている。即ち、ブラシ本体3は、2本の心線材の相互間に毛材7を挟み、心線材を撚って構成される。毛材7は心線6の周りに螺旋状に連続した並びとなる。ほぼ平行なブラシ本体3,3の相互間隔は、互いの毛材7,7の先端部分が接し、あるいは重合する程度になっている。図5,図6に示すように、金属心線6の基端部は、把手2の両端の管状部に挿入され、かしめ止めされている。心線6の基端部は、把手2の両端の管状部に着脱自在に挿入するように構成することもできる。この場合、個別交換でき経済的である。金属心線6の先端部は、基端寄りの位置から把手2の延伸面に対して一方へ直交方向に膨出し、これより先端側の位置で反対方向へ戻るように円弧状に湾曲して終結している。
【0008】
図8に示すように、一対のブラシ本体3をジョッキ8内に挿入し、内側を洗浄する。一対のブラシ本体3を並べた幅寸法がジョッキ8の内径にほぼ対応する。ジョッキの内径が70mmとすれば、ブラシ本体の毛足の長さは20mm程度とする。毛材7は洗浄のために良好な弾力を保持する。図9に示すように、一対のブラシ本体3,3間にジョッキ8の側壁を挟めば、ジョッキ8の側壁の内外を同時に洗浄できる。この場合、作業者が把手を握ると、把手2の扁平な湾曲部により、一対のブラシ本体3,3間に、ジョッキ8の側壁を挟む良好な弾力が付与され、効率的に洗浄できる。金属心線6の先端部の曲がりにより、ブラシ本体3の先端部に放射状に毛材7が配置され、ジョッキ8の側壁の最下部付近から底部にわたる断面円弧状の部位を効率的に洗浄できる。
【0009】
【考案の効果】
以上のように、本考案においては、ほぼU字状に湾曲する把手2の両端に棒状のブラシ本体3を取り付けてジョッキ洗浄ブラシ1を構成し、ブラシ本体3は、一対の金属心線6の相互間に毛材7を挟んで撚り、金属心線6周りに螺旋状に毛材7を配して成り、ブラシ本体3の一対を互いに毛先を接触させる間隔で把手2に取り付け、把手2は、ステンレススチール製の管材4を湾曲させて構成し、湾曲部に圧搾成型による扁平部4aを設けるようにしたため、一対のブラシ本体3をジョッキ8内に挿入し、内側を洗浄すれば、毛材7が良好な弾力を保持して効率的に洗浄でき、一対のブラシ本体3,3間にジョッキ8の側壁を挟めば、扁平な湾曲部の良好な弾性でジョッキ8の側壁の内外を同時に効率的に洗浄できるという効果を有する。

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]
The present invention relates to a brush for cleaning a mug.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in the cleaning work of a mug, the inside is washed with a brush and the outside is washed with a sponge or the like. The brush is a single brush having an outer diameter of approximately 80 mm corresponding to an inner diameter of approximately 70 mm of the mug. Since this brush has a relatively long bristle foot of approximately 40 mm, the elasticity of the bristle material is weak, so that the mug cannot be efficiently cleaned in a short time, and it is difficult to use for cleaning the outer surface of the mug. There is a problem.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a mug cleaning brush that has sufficient elasticity in the bristle material, can efficiently clean the mug in a short time, and can be used for cleaning the outer surface of the mug. And
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, in the present invention, a stick-shaped brush body 3 is attached to both ends of a handle 2 which is bent substantially in a U-shape, to constitute a mug cleaning brush 1. The brush body 3 is formed by twisting a bristle material 7 between a pair of metal core wires 6 and arranging the bristle material 7 in a spiral around the metal core wire 6. A pair of the brush bodies 3 are attached to the handle 2 at intervals such that the tips of the brushes come into contact with each other. The handle 2 is formed by bending a stainless steel tube 4 and has a flat portion 4a formed by compression molding at a bent portion. The pair of brush bodies 3 are inserted into the jug 8 to clean the inside. The width dimension in which the pair of brush bodies 3 are arranged substantially corresponds to the inner diameter of the mug 8. If the inner diameter of the mug 8 is 70 mm, the length of the bristle feet of the brush body is about 20 mm, and a good elasticity is maintained. If the side wall of the mug 8 is sandwiched between the pair of brush bodies 3, the inside and the outside of the side wall of the mug 8 can be washed at the same time. In this case, the side wall of the mug 8 can be efficiently cleaned by sandwiching the side wall of the jug 8 between the pair of brush bodies 3 with good elasticity due to the flat curved portion of the handle 2. The handle 2 can be easily formed by squeezing the central portion of one stainless steel tube 4 that is the material of the handle 2 to form a flat portion 4a and bending the flat portion 4a into an arc shape.
The distal end of the metal core wire 6 is bulged in a direction perpendicular to one side with respect to the extending surface of the handle 2 from a position near the base end, and is curved in an arc shape so as to return in the opposite direction at a position closer to the distal end. When the brush is finished, the bristle material 7 is radially arranged at the tip of the brush 1, so that an arc-shaped portion extending from near the bottom to the bottom of the side wall of the mug 8 can be efficiently cleaned.
By inserting the base ends of the metal core wires 6 of the brush main body 3 into both ends of the handle 2 and fixing them by crimping, the two can be easily combined.
If the base end of the metal core wire 6 of the brush body 3 is removably inserted into both ends of the handle 2, the brush body 3, which is a consumable product, can be replaced separately from the handle 2, which is economical. is there.
[0005]
[Embodiment of the invention]
An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 is a front view of a cleaning brush, FIG. 2 is a side view, FIG. 3 is a plan view, FIG. 4 is a bottom view, FIG. 5 is a front view of a core wire, FIG. 6 is a side view of a core wire, and FIG. FIG. 8 is a front view of the cleaning brush in another use state.
1 to 4, a cleaning brush 1 includes a U-shaped handle 2 and a pair of brush bodies 3 connected to both ends of the handle 2 and extending substantially in a bar shape.
[0006]
As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the handle 2 is made of a stainless steel tube 4. The flat portion 4a is formed by squeezing the intermediate portion of the straight pipe member 4, and the flat portion 4a is formed into a U-shape by being curved in an arc shape. The formation of the handle 2 is easy. When the handle 2 is gripped, the flat portion 4a can elastically expand and contract the space between both ends thereof. The handle 2 is constituted by covering the tube 4 with a flexible cover 5 made of synthetic resin.
[0007]
The brush body 3 is configured by implanting a bristle material 7 around a metal core wire 6. That is, the brush body 3 is configured by sandwiching the bristle material 7 between two core wires and twisting the core wires. The bristle material 7 is spirally continuous around the core wire 6. The spacing between the substantially parallel brush bodies 3, 3 is such that the tips of the bristle members 7, 7 are in contact with each other or overlap. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the base end of the metal core wire 6 is inserted into the tubular portions at both ends of the handle 2 and is fixed by caulking. The base end of the core wire 6 may be configured to be removably inserted into the tubular portions at both ends of the handle 2. In this case, it can be exchanged individually and it is economical. The distal end of the metal core wire 6 bulges in a direction perpendicular to one side with respect to the extending surface of the handle 2 from a position near the base end, and is curved in an arc shape so as to return in the opposite direction at a position closer to the distal end. It has ended.
[0008]
As shown in FIG. 8, a pair of brush bodies 3 are inserted into a jug 8 to clean the inside. The width dimension in which the pair of brush bodies 3 are arranged substantially corresponds to the inner diameter of the mug 8. Assuming that the inner diameter of the mug is 70 mm, the length of the bristle feet of the brush body is about 20 mm. The bristle material 7 has good elasticity for cleaning. As shown in FIG. 9, if the side wall of the jug 8 is sandwiched between the pair of brush bodies 3, the inside and outside of the side wall of the jug 8 can be washed at the same time. In this case, when the operator grips the handle, the flat curved portion of the handle 2 provides a good elasticity for sandwiching the side wall of the mug 8 between the pair of brush bodies 3, 3, thereby enabling efficient cleaning. Due to the bending of the distal end of the metal core wire 6, the bristle material 7 is radially arranged at the distal end of the brush body 3, and the portion having an arc-shaped cross section extending from near the bottom of the side wall of the mug 8 to the bottom can be efficiently cleaned.
[0009]
[Effect of the invention]
As described above, in the present invention, the stick-shaped brush body 3 is attached to both ends of the handle 2 which is curved in a substantially U-shape to constitute the mug cleaning brush 1, and the brush body 3 is formed of a pair of metal core wires 6. The bristle material 7 is twisted with the bristle material 7 interposed therebetween, and the bristle material 7 is spirally disposed around the metal core wire 6. A pair of the brush bodies 3 is attached to the handle 2 at intervals such that the tips of the brushes 3 are in contact with each other. Is made by bending a stainless steel tube material 4 and providing a flat portion 4a by compression molding in the bent portion. The material 7 has good elasticity and can be efficiently cleaned, and if the side wall of the mug 8 is sandwiched between the pair of brush bodies 3, the inside and outside of the side wall of the mug 8 can be simultaneously formed by the good elasticity of the flat curved portion. This has the effect that cleaning can be performed efficiently.
