より長さの補充調節を行なつていた。 Normally, when a tape recorder is used for a long period of time, magnetic particles and dust from the peeled magnetic tape adhere to the recording/playback head, capstan, etc., and if you record or play back in that state, you will not be able to record with high fidelity.
It is known that regeneration is inhibited. In order to prevent such deterioration of characteristics, conventionally, cotton or the like at the tip 1 of a rod-shaped body is impregnated with a cleaning liquid such as carbon tetrachloride or isopropyl alcohol, and the object to be cleaned is rubbed with the cleaning liquid. However, when the object to be cleaned, such as a head, is installed in a location that is difficult to reach with a rod-shaped cleaning tool, such as a cartridge-type tape recorder, one end 4 of the rod-shaped cleaning tool 6 is inserted into the extension holder 2. The length was replenished and adjusted by inserting it into the hole 3.

く、使いにくいものとなつていた。 However, as shown in FIG. 1, a commercially available stick-shaped cleaning tool, the so-called cotton swab 6, has cleaning parts 1, 1' made of cotton or the like at both ends, and in order to insert this cotton swab 6 into the holder 2, the stick-shaped cleaning tool must be removed. One end 7 of the tool must have a cylindrical shape with approximately the same diameter as the hole 3 drilled in the holder, so cut the cotton 6 to the required length and insert the cut end into the hole 3. It has a structure that allows for insertion. However, there is a cleaning part 1' on the other end side 5 of the cut cotton swab 6, and since this side 5 is opposite to the part 4 cut to the required length, it cannot be used because the desired length cannot be obtained. lie. Further, cutting requires another cutting tool 8 such as a knife, which is cumbersome. Furthermore, since the cotton swab is connected to the holder 2 by relying on the elasticity of the handle 12, the holding force is weak, and as the frequency of use increases, the cotton swab becomes loose and easily comes off, making it difficult to use.

この考案は、以上のような欠点を除去するた
め、綿棒６を保持するホルダに綿棒保持体９を長
手方向に設け、該保持体９に綿棒６を嵌着させる

向上させた棒状清掃具のホルダ１０を提供しよう
とするものである。 In order to eliminate the above drawbacks, this invention provides a cotton swab holder 9 in the longitudinal direction of the holder that holds the cotton swab 6, and by fitting the cotton swab 6 into the holder 9, the length can be adjusted freely. It is an object of the present invention to provide a holder 10 for a rod-shaped cleaning tool that has improved holding power.

以下、この考案を実施例に基づき説明を行な
う。 This invention will be explained below based on examples.

入させるには第３図に示されるようにこの綿棒６
に比較してやや径を小さくした一部切欠き円筒状
部材からなる保持体９の切欠部分にこの綿棒を圧
接し嵌入させる。 The holder 10 is provided with a cotton swab holder 9 at the tip and at a location approximately 2 cm away from the tip, respectively.
A mirror 11 that can be rotated in all directions is loosely fitted to the rearmost end by ball joint means. The cotton swab 6 is fixed to the cleaning portions 1 and 1' at both ends with highly absorbent cotton wrapped around it. Cleaning is done by rubbing the head. To fit the cotton swab 6 into the holder 10, as shown in FIG.
This cotton swab is pressed and fitted into the notch of the holder 9, which is a cylindrical member with a partially notched portion whose diameter is slightly smaller than that of the swab.

力Ｆを吸収している。 As shown in FIG. 4, this cotton swab 6 can be fitted arbitrarily within the fitting range h of the holder 9 at two locations.
Since the holder 9 is made of elastic synthetic resin, the cotton swab 6 is subjected to force a,
It is maintained by b. Further, the cotton fastening part 1' on the opposite side from the cleaning part 1 is in contact with the inside of the holder 10,
The maximum diameter R of the cotton fastening part 1' and the diameter r of the cotton swab handle 12
A force N is applied from the holder 10 due to the difference Δd.
Since this force N and the above-mentioned forces a and b are applied to the handle 12 in a well-balanced manner, no rattling occurs.
Furthermore, the force N generates a sliding frictional resistance μN between the holder and the cotton, absorbing the force F that tends to cause the cotton swab to slide in the longitudinal direction.

は後部ミラー１１により確認できる。 When using the cleaning tool holder 10 configured as described above to clean, for example, the head located at the back of an 8-track cartridge type tape recorder, the cotton swab 6 is fitted into the holder 10 at a convenient length. , the object to be cleaned is brought into contact with the head to perform cleaning. In this case, as mentioned above, the cotton swab 6 is held firmly and well-balanced by the forces a, b, and N, so that no wobbling occurs, and even against the force F in the longitudinal direction, the sliding friction resistance of μN prevents the cotton swab from shifting. As a result, cleaning can be performed effectively. After use, the cleaning section 1 that is no longer needed can be removed from the holder 10 and the opposite side 1' can be used as a cleaning section in the same way. Further, the state after cleaning can be confirmed through the rear mirror 11.

お一層強いものとなる。 As another embodiment, FIG. 5 shows a cleaning tool holder 14 in which the insertion directions of the handles of two holders 13 and 13' are made at slight angles α and β, respectively, with respect to the holder axis direction. In this case, when the cotton swab 6 is fitted, a force is applied in the direction of the arrow due to the elasticity of the handle 12, further increasing the holding force and making it even stronger against the force F in the axial direction.

良好な清掃を行うことが出来る。 As described above, the cleaning tool holder 10 has the holder 9 which can be fitted and removed at any arbitrary position of the cotton swab 6 and arranged in parallel at at least one location along the longitudinal direction of the cotton swab 6.
When used for the cotton swab 6, the cleaning parts 1 and 1' located at both ends of the cotton swab 6 can be used effectively without waste, and by utilizing the elasticity of the cotton holder 9, the holding power is improved and the swab can be cleaned without wobbling. 6 can be cleaned well without falling off.
