More specifically, the invention relates to picking up such items using a mechanized apparatus with a static electric charged bar or roller and rotating gears that transfer torque to rotate a collecting roller. The collecting roller picks up and stores the hair, fibers and other debris that have been lifted by the static electric charged bar or roller and deposits them in a collection section of the device for disposal.
Description
- This application is a non-provisional patent application claiming priority to U.S. provisional patent application Ser. No. 60/856,204 filed on Nov. 1, 2006, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.
- The invention is directed to an apparatus used for cleaning up hair, fibers, and other debris from surfaces, furnishings and carpets.
- Prior art cleaning apparatuses use a variety of methods to remove hair, fibers, and other debris from a surface to be cleaned, such as moving brushes, suction, and adhesives. Electric vacuum cleaners often use suction and moving brushes to clean surfaces. Vacuum cleaners are usually heavy and need to be plugged into an electrical outlet to function properly. In addition, vacuum cleaners typically require a supply of bags that must be replaced from time to time to be effective, and long hairs and fibers can become entangled in the mechanical parts of vacuum cleaners. Other prior art includes lighter weight floor cleaning devices that are quieter than electric vacuums. These, however, are designed to work on solid hard floors, not carpeted or fabric surfaces. Lint removers are typically designed in a small format, such as a hand-held brush or roller, and can quickly become saturated with hair and debris, losing their effectiveness. Due to their small size, lint removers do not have the attracting and collecting capabilities necessary for cleaning large surfaces or floors.
- In general, in an aspect, the invention provides a pickup apparatus comprising a housing, a handle mounted to the housing, two wheels connected to the housing, and a collection container. A static roller is connected to the housing and disposed at a parallel, vertically offset position relative to a collection roller that is connected to the housing. A stripper bar periodically engages with the collection roller and is adjacent to the collection container. A pivot arm engages with the collection container. The housing has rotatable drive wheels mounted on it for enabling the housing to roll along a surface. Also, the rotation of the wheels causes the collection roller to rotate.
- Capabilities and advantages of the invention may include one or more of the following. The static electric charged bar or roller on the leading edge of a device may attract hair, fibers, and other debris, lifting them from the surface to be cleaned toward the charged bar or roller. This lifting may promote easier ensnaring and collecting of the hair, fibers, or debris by a collection roller. The static bar may be disposed below and at a parallel and vertically offset position relative to the collection bar. Unidirectional bristles along a surface of the collection roller may comb forward at a rate faster than the forward motion of the device and help to ensnare and gather the static standing hairs/fibers onto points of the bristles. The bristles extend at an angle from the roller's surface to maximize their engagement with the collected hairs/fibers. Therefore, short hairs/fibers may become collected entirely within the protruding bristles of the collection roller, and longer hairs may become partially intertwined. Hairs, fibers, and other debris may be collected continually when the device is in forward motion.
- When the drive wheels are rotated in reverse, the collection roller rotates in reverse and a friction clutch engages a stripper bar. The stripper bar may easily remove hairs/fibers by combing the hair/fibers against the orientation of the unidirectional bristles on the collection roller. Hair/fibers may then be collected in a bundle along an edge of the stripper bar. When forward motion again commences, the bundle of hair/fibers may be entangled by adhesive covered flanges of the collection box and may stay attached while more hair/fibers are collected. The hair/fibers and/or the box containing the hair/fibers can ultimately be disposed of.

FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a further exemplary pickup device according to the invention. - Referring to
FIG. 1 , in an aspect, the invention provides adevice 8 includingdrive wheels 10, astatic bar 12, acollection roller 14, acollection box 16, and ahandle 18, which can be long or short for use of thedevice 8 on any of a variety of surfaces, such as, for instance, floors or furniture. Hand pressure exerted on thehandle 18 causes thedrive wheels 10, which have high frictionouter surfaces 20, to roll against a surface from which hair, fibers, and other debris are to be removed. As forward pressure is exerted on thehandle 18, thedrive wheels 10 roll in a forward motion, as shown by arrow 22 inFIG. 1 , causing thecollection roller 14 to rotate via a gear train (as described below). Movement of thedrive wheels 10 powers thecollection roller 14 in the same direction asdrive wheels 10, but at a higher rotational speed. - The
static bar 12 is disposed and attached to thedevice 8 at a parallel and vertically offset position relative to thecollection bar 14. In addition, thestatic bar 12 is preferably offset below thecollection roller 14. The position of thestatic bar 12 relative to thecollection roller 12 helps to ensure thecollection roller 14 will contact and ensnare at least some of the hair, fibers, and/or other debris disposed along thestatic bar 12. A plurality ofunidirectional bristles 50, as shown onFIG. 2 , are disposed along at least a portion of a surface of thecollection roller 14. Eachbristle 50 is configured to protrude from thecollection roller 14 surface at an angle, in a direction corresponding toarrow 46 inFIG. 2 . As thecollection roller 14 rotates, at least a portion of thebristles 50 contact thestatic bar 12. - The
static bar 12 is electrically insulated from the remainder of thedevice 8 and is composed of a dielectric material. Therefore, the contact between thebristles 50 on thecollection roller 14 and thestatic bar 12 may produce a static electric charge along thestatic bar 12. Also, contact between thestatic bar 12 and surface over which thedevice 8 is moving, for example, a carpet, may produce a static electric charge along thestatic bar 12. Once charged, thestatic bar 12 may attract hair, fibers, and other debris from a surface beneath thebar 12 that causes hair, fibers, and other debris to lift from the surface to thereby help to make contact with thecollection roller 14. Thebristles 50 on thecollection roller 14 face in a forward direction and engage and hold onto the hair, fibers, and other debris that the collection roller 14 encounters. - When the
device 8 is rolled in reverse, thedrive wheels 10 andcollection roller 14 rotate in the direction opposite to that shown by arrow 22 inFIG. 1 . The backward motion engages a stripper bar (not visible in this view), which presses against thecollection roller 14 and strips off the hair, fibers, and other debris that have collected on it. Such hair, fibers, and other debris are stripped off thecollection roller 14 and become trapped in thecollection box 16. - Referring to
FIG. 2 , thedrive wheels 10 have aninternal gear 40 that drives thecollection roller 14 through aspur gear 38 mounted to aroller axle 44. Thecollection roller 14 is connected to, removable from, and rotated by theroller axle 44 with thespur gear 38. Asecond spur gear 32, driven by the sameinternal gear 40 within thedriving wheel 10, rotates apivot axle 34. Apivot arm 36 is mounted on thepivot axle 34 that is connected to afriction clutch 30. Thefriction clutch 30 moves thepivot arm 36 forward, when thedriving wheels 10 are rotating in a forward direction, as shown by thearrow 46 inFIG. 2 , and moves rearward when thewheels 10 drive in a reverse direction. Thepivot arm 36 pivots to engage with thecollection box 16. Thepivot arm 36 also pivots rearward away from thecollection roller 14 when thedevice 8 is driven forward in collecting mode, as shown byarrow 46 inFIG. 2 , and is caused to pivot forward toward thecollection roller 14 whendevice 8 is driven in reverse. - A plurality of
unidirectional bristles 94, similar to those on thecollection roller 14, are disposed along at least a portion of the front edge of thepivot arm 42. Each bristle 94 is configured to protrude up from the front edge of thepivot arm 42, as shown inFIG. 4E and described below. When thecollection roller 14 rotates in reverse, the front edge of thepivot arm 42 is pressed against thecollection roller 14. The bristles 94 on thepivot arm 42 strip at least a portion of the ensnared hair, fibers, and other debris off thecollection roller 14 and deposit removed hair, fibers, and other debris in thecollection box 16. - The
static bar 12 is disposed on the front of the devise 8. Made of dielectric material, thestatic bar 12 is electrically insulated from theframe 48 and lightly touches thebristles 50 of thecollection roller 14. This contact withcollection roller 14 may cause static electrical charge to build up on thestatic bar 12, which could cause the hair, fibers, and other debris to lift from a surface and be more likely to be captured by thebristles 50 of thecollection roller 14. - Referring to
FIG. 3 , in another aspect, the invention provides thedevice 8 as shown and described with reference toFIGS. 1-3 with the exception that thestatic bar 12 is replaced with astatic roller 86. Thestatic roller 86 is disposed and attached to thedevice 8 at a parallel and vertically offset position relative to thecollection bar 14. In addition, thestatic roller 86 is preferably offset below thecollection roller 14. Thestatic roller 86 is electrically insulated from the remainder of thedevice 8 by a mounting 80 and is composed of a dielectric material. Forward motion of thedevice 8, as shown byarrow 84 inFIG. 3 , may cause thestatic roller 86 to build up static electric charge. Such build up can occur in several ways. The dielectric material of theroller 86 rubbing lightly on thecollection roller 14 and/or a surface, a carpet or fabric may build up static charge. Theroller 86, may rotate on aninner shaft 82. The outer surface ofinner shaft 82 may be covered in a material suitable to build up a static charge, including, but not limited to, fur, synthetic fabric, standing-weave fabric, and any other material. When the outer surface of theshaft 82 is rubbed against thecollection roller 86, static charge may build along theroller 86. - Referring to
FIGS. 4A-4E , operation of thedevice 8 is described. Thedevice 8 is moved in a forward motion, as shown byarrows FIG. 4A , toward hair, fibers, or other debris embedded in a surface, such as a carpet, fabric surface, wood surface or other surface. This forward motion can be accomplished by manually pushing thedevice 8, or by motorized propulsion of thedevice 8. Thecollection roller 14 rotates forward at a rotational speed greater than that of thedrive wheels 10, and thestatic bar 12 may be charged by its forward motion. In operation, thedevice 8 is rolled over the surface being cleaned in a back and forth motion. Thedrive wheels 10 may be made up of a special material to maximize its grip on the surface and to maximize the torque generated by thedevice 8. Thedrive wheels 10 may have a high-traction surface, such as rubber or a tread surface, including knurled, knobby, or protrusions, to grip the surface being cleaned. - When the
device 8 encounters hair, fibers, and other debris on the surface, the static electric charge on thestatic bar 12 may attract the hair, fibers, and other debris and lift the hair up toward it, as shown inFIG. 4B . This lifting promotes grabbing of the hair, fibers and other debris bycollection roller 14 for removal from the surface being cleaned. As thecollection roller 14 rotates forward, thebristles 50 capture hair, fibers and other debris that have been lifted bystatic bar 12, as shown inFIG. 4C , and start to wrap the hair, fibers and other debris onto thecollection roller 14. The hair, fibers and other debris are collected and wrap around thecollection roller 14, as shown inFIG. 4D , as thedevice 8 moves forward. Thedevice 8 then moves backward, as shown byarrows FIG. 4E , causing thestripper bar 66 to be engaged against thecollection roller 14. As thecollection roller 14 rotates backwards, the unidirectional bristles 94 on thestripper bar 66 scrape against thebristles 50 on thecollection roller 14, removing the hair from thebristles 50 and into thecollection box 16 where they are stored for subsequent disposal. - Referring to
FIG. 5 , in a further aspect, the invention provides thedevice 8 as shown and described with reference toFIGS. 1-4 with astripper bar assembly 62 as an alternative to thepivot arm 42. Theassembly 62 includes aninternal gear 40 that is integral with thedrive wheels 10 and engages aspur gear 32. Thespur gear 32 is affixed to adrive shaft 64 on which astripper bar assembly 62 is suspended. Thestripper bar assembly 62 is free to rotate by a hollow tube 60 (or bearing or other mechanism) with minimal clearance and low friction. Thestripper bar assembly 62 is engaged to thedrive shaft 64 by a friction device that causes thestripper bar assembly 62 to rotate with thedrive shaft 64 so far as it may before encountering an impediment which is a designed part of the system. When thedrive shaft 64 is rotating in forward motion, in concert with thedrive wheels 10 and thedevice 8, as shown by thearrow 78, thestripper bar assembly 62 moves thestripper bar 66 away from the surface of thecollection roller 14. When the direction of motion is reversed, the drive shaft rotates rearward and pulls thestripper bar 66 and itsfrictional surface 68 against thecollection roller 14. - In one configuration, a friction clutch to provide such motion consists of an internally threaded
cylinder 80 affixed to thehollow bearing tube 60. The bearingtube 60 is drilled through on the axis of the threaded bore so that afriction disk 72 bears against thedrive shaft 64, creating a frictional connection to thedrive shaft 64. Thefriction disk 72 is loaded by acoil spring 74, which is also placed into the threaded bore followingfriction disk 72. Thecoil spring 74 is held by aset screw 76 or other threaded fastener which, when threaded into the bore, compresses thecoil spring 74 and increases the load on thefriction disc 72. In such manner can the amount of friction be adjusted. - Having described at least one illustrative embodiment of the invention, various alterations, modifications and improvements will readily occur to those skilled in the art. Such alterations, modifications and improvements are intended to be within the scope and spirit of the invention. Accordingly, the foregoing description is by way of example only and is not intended as limiting. The invention's limit is defined only in the following claims and the equivalents thereto.
