Further, claim 7 describes a water-absorbing and water-retaining laminated sheet in which a waterproof layer is laminated on the back surface side of the water-absorbing and water-retaining knit. This Patent Document 5 certainly describes a laminated sheet having a water-absorbent and water-retaining knit on the front surface and a waterproof layer on the back surface.
Then, in the paragraph [0001], as the use of the water-absorbing and water-retaining knitted fabric, "shoe interior use such as shoe lining and insole such as casual / ladies' shoes, running shoes, boots and safety shoes, and nursing care such as waterproof sheets". It can bring a comfortable dry feeling to the surface, which is suitable for use as a product or for sportswear such as sports shirts. "
It is common knowledge of air conditioner cleaning technicians that the cleaning sheet is limited to the waterproof sheet as mentioned above because a large amount of cleaning liquid (including cleaning water) is used for cleaning the air conditioner and a considerable amount of water droplets adhere to the opposite side. Met. Therefore, it is clear that applying the waterproof, water-absorbing, and water-retaining laminated sheet of Patent Document 5 to air conditioner cleaning is a strange idea not only for air conditioner cleaning engineers but also for textile engineers.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the curing cover for cleaning the air conditioner according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view of cleaning an air conditioner using a side cover 3 and an overall cover 4, which are a kind of curing cover for cleaning the air conditioner, in the air conditioner cleaning method according to the present invention.
The air conditioner main body 1 is a wall-mounted air conditioner from which the air conditioner case, which is a housing, is removed, and is covered with a large number of fins for heat exchange. An air conditioner side control unit 2 which is a control panel for electronically controlling the air conditioner is provided on the side of the air conditioner main body 1. The air conditioner side control unit 2 is fitted and covered by a side cover 3, which is a kind of curing cover. The covered side cover 3 is composed of an opening 3c for fitting, a peripheral sheet 3a covering the peripheral surface, and a side sheet 3b covering the side surface, and seals the air conditioner side control unit 2. ing. The configuration of the side cover 3 referred to here is a configuration in a fitted state, and in a non-fitted state, it may be a simple bag body.

The air conditioner main body 1 to which the side cover 3 is fitted is surrounded by the whole cover 4, which is a kind of curing cover. The entire cover 4 is an integrated body cover that covers the air conditioner main body 1 and a receiving cover that allows cleaning liquid and drainage to flow down and be collected. Therefore, the entire cover 4 includes a side bottom sheet 4a, a front sheet 4b covering the lower half of the front surface, an opening 4e opened in the upper half of the front surface, an upper surface sheet 4c covering the ceiling side, and the rear side. It is composed of a back sheet 4d to cover. The configuration of the main body cover 4 referred to here is the configuration in the enclosed state of the air conditioner main body 1, and in the unenclosed state, it may be a simple bag body.
The left and right front covers 5 and 5 that open and close the opening 4e in a hanging manner are arranged so as to hang down from the front edge of the upper surface sheet 4c, and there is a gap between the left and right front covers 5 and 5. The cleaning port 6 is formed and arranged. The lower end edges of the front covers 5 and 5 are hung on the inner surface side of the front sheet 4b, and the cleaning liquid and drainage flowing down from the inner surface of the front covers 5 and 5 are collected without leaking to the outside. There is.
Since the front covers 5 and 5 have a hanging curtain shape, the left and right front covers 5 and 5 can be wound up, and the lower edges of the front covers 5 and 5 can be opened to the left and right. Also, the adjacent edges of the left and right front covers 5 and 5 may overlap or be open. If the adjacent edges are separated from each other, the vertically formed gap becomes the cleaning port 6. Further, if the adjacent edges overlap each other, the lower edges of the front covers 5 and 5 can be opened to the left and right to open a gap, and the gap becomes the cleaning port 6. Therefore, the left and right front covers 5 and 5 greatly increase the degree of freedom in the cleaning work, and the ease of the cleaning work can be ensured.

In the present invention, since the cleaning port 6 is extremely flexible as described above, there is an advantage that the radiation direction of the cleaning liquid 9a can be freely changed.
Further, a drainage tube 7 is connected to the bottom sheet of the side bottom sheet 4a of the entire cover 4, and the drainage tube 7 collects cleaning liquid and drainage into a tank (not shown) via the connecting portion 8. The cleaning liquid 9a flows down not only from the air conditioner main body 1 but also along the inner surface of the side surface sheet, the front sheet 4b, the top sheet 4c, the back sheet 4d, etc. of the side bottom sheet 4a, and the cleaning liquid 9a and the drainage liquid are discharged. Everything will be collected from the bottom sheet via the drainage tube 7.

FIG. 2 is a schematic perspective view of an overall cover 4, which is a type of curing cover used in the air conditioner cleaning method according to the present invention. Since the configuration and operation of the entire cover 4 have been described with reference to FIG. 1, they will be omitted here.
What is important in FIG. 2 is that the entire cover 4 including the side bottom sheet 4a, the front sheet 4b, the top sheet 4c, and the back sheet 4d is formed from the curing sheet 11. A cross-sectional view of the curing sheet 11 is shown in the enlarged view indicated by ◯ of the broken portion 14 in which a part of the entire cover 4 is cut out. The inner layer facing the air conditioner is formed of the waterproof layer 12, and the outer layer facing the air conditioner is composed of the water-absorbing water-retaining layer 13, that is, the curing sheet 11 is a laminated sheet in which the waterproof layer 12 and the water-absorbing water-retaining layer 13 are joined. ..
Cleaning liquid and drainage flow down to the inner surface of the entire cover 4, and these cleaning liquid and drainage flow down along the surface of the waterproof layer 12. Therefore, the cleaning liquid and drainage liquid do not permeate the entire cover 4 by the waterproof layer. Impossible. On the other hand, since minute droplets and mist droplets of cleaning liquid and drainage are scattered in the outer space outside the entire cover 4, the water-absorbing and water-retaining layer 13 absorbs these minute droplets and mist droplets, and the position thereof. Water can be retained so that it does not move. Therefore, since these liquids do not flow down to the floor surface and moisten the floor surface, the floor surface can be kept in a good state as it is dry. Further, the retained liquid does not permeate into the inside of the entire cover 4 due to the water-shielding action of the waterproof layer 12. Although it depends on the case, the present invention has an advantage that the air conditioner can be washed without laying a floor sheet on the floor surface.

FIG. 3 is a schematic perspective view of the air conditioner side control unit surrounded by the side cover 3, which is a type of curing cover used in the air conditioner cleaning method according to the present invention. Since the configuration and operation of the side cover 3 have been described with reference to FIG. 1, they will be omitted here.
What is important in FIG. 3 is that the side cover 3 including the peripheral surface sheet 3a and the side surface sheet 3b is formed from the curing sheet 11. A cross-sectional view of the curing sheet 11 is shown in the enlarged view indicated by ◯ of the fractured portion 14 in which a part of the side cover 3 is cut out. The inner layer facing the air conditioner, that is, the air conditioner side control unit 2, is formed of the waterproof layer 12, and the outer layer facing the air conditioner is composed of the water-absorbing water-retaining layer 13, that is, the curing sheet 11 has the waterproof layer 12 and the water-absorbing water-retaining layer. It is a laminated sheet to which 13 is joined.
The control unit of the wall-mounted air conditioner is provided on the side of the air conditioner, and the control circuit is particularly vulnerable to water. Therefore, when cleaning the air conditioner, a side cover 3 which is a kind of curing cover surrounding the air conditioner side control unit 2 is attached to protect the air conditioner side control unit 2. As a result, not only the water-absorbing water-retaining layer 13 can absorb minute water droplets and mist of the cleaning liquid and the drainage liquid floating in the space, but also water can be retained at the water-absorbing position so that these liquids do not move to other places. Moreover, the waterproof layer 12 on the inner layer makes it possible to reliably protect the air conditioner side control unit 2 by blocking the transfer and movement of the water-absorbed and retained cleaning liquid and drainage to the air conditioner side control unit 2. .. Therefore, the restartability of the air conditioner can be reliably ensured.

FIG. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view illustrating that the curing sheet forming the curing cover according to the present invention has a structure in which a waterproof layer 12 and a water-absorbing water-retaining layer 13 are laminated.
The waterproof layer 12 and the water-absorbing water-retaining layer 13 are configured as follows. The water-absorbing and water-retaining layer 13 is a knitted fabric made of synthetic fibers, and has a pile on its surface, and the pile becomes a convex portion to have an uneven structure on the surface of the knitted fabric, and a liquid brought to the surface of the knitted fabric from the outside. Moisture in the form is quickly absorbed into the inside of the knitted fabric to retain water, and the waterproof layer 12 is made of a resin film or a resin film, and is formed by laminating or coating on the back surface side of the water absorbing and retaining layer 13 to cure the air conditioner. It is a cover.
It can be configured by using a synthetic fiber that forms a pile that gives a dry feeling on the front surface and a synthetic fiber that is generally known as a hydrophobic fiber such as a polyester fiber as a synthetic fiber that absorbs water and retains water on the back surface. For example, even if both the pile on the front surface and the pile on the back surface are composed of polyester fibers, the deformed cross-section fiber is preferably used as the polyester fiber constituting the back surface, preferably the irregularly fine cross-section multifilament fiber having a small single yarn fineness. When is used, the back surface has a strong suction force of water due to the capillary phenomenon, and the water can be absorbed from the front side and the water can be retained in the interfiber voids. The water absorption and water retention referred to in the present invention is embodied by such an action on the back surface. On the other hand, on the front surface, moisture is taken away by the back surface, so that a dry feeling is maintained.
As the water-absorbing and water-retaining layer, it is preferable to use the above-mentioned knitted fabric made of synthetic fibers, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the knitted fabric is composed of fibers having water-absorbing and water-retaining properties such as cotton. It is also possible to use a cloth such as a non-woven fabric or a woven or knitted fabric as a water-absorbing and water-retaining layer.
As the waterproof layer, a known resin film or resin film may be used, and these can be laminated by laminating or coating them on the back surface side of the knitted fabric of the present invention. The resin forming the waterproof layer is not particularly limited and may be appropriately selected from known resins according to the intended purpose. For example, polyester resins, polyurethane resins, fluororesins and the like are preferably used. ..
As the curing sheet for forming the curing cover according to the present invention, for example, the waterproof, water-absorbing and water-retaining laminated sheet specifically described in Patent Document 5 can be preferably used.

FIG. 5 is a three-dimensional photographic view showing the air conditioner side control unit 2 of the air conditioner main body 1 to be cleaned, which is attached to the wall surface A.
An air conditioner control unit is provided on the side of the air conditioner main body 1, and if cleaning liquid or drainage is radiated to the air conditioner side control unit 2, the control function of the air conditioner may be broken. Therefore, in the present invention, it is important to fit and cover the air conditioner side control unit 2 with the side cover 3.

FIG. 6 is an overall photographic view in which the air conditioner side control unit 2 is surrounded by the side cover 3 which is a kind of the curing cover according to the present invention.
It is necessary that the air conditioner side control unit 2 is completely and deeply fitted and covered by the side cover 3. The side cover 3 prevents the air conditioner side control unit 2 from directly radiating the cleaning liquid or the drainage liquid. In FIG. 6, the side cover 3 is fixed to the air conditioner side control unit 2 by an adjuster which is a fastener (not shown).

FIG. 7 is a partial photographic view in which the air conditioner side control unit 2 is surrounded by the side cover 3 which is a kind of the curing cover according to the present invention and is different from FIG.

It can be seen that the front cover 5 on the left side is embedded inside the front sheet 4b, and the front cover 5 on the right side is outside the front sheet 4b. At the time of cleaning, it is necessary to charge both the left and right front covers 5 and 5 into the inside of the front sheet 4b. By doing so, it is possible to prevent the cleaning liquid and the drainage liquid from leaking to the outside.

FIG. 12 is an overall perspective view of a cleaning method in which a wall-mounted air conditioner main body 1 is surrounded by a main body cover 20 and a receiving cover 22, which are a kind of curing cover according to the present invention.
The main body cover 20 which is a curing cover is used in combination with the receiving cover 22 which is a curing cover. In the middle, the receiving tool 21 is suspended by the hanging tools 23 and 23 connected to the air conditioner main body 1, the receiving cover 22 is arranged under the receiving tool 21, and the drainage tube is discharged from the apex of the hopper-shaped receiving cover 22. 7 is hanging.
The reason why the lower part of the main body cover 20 is open is that when cleaning the air conditioner, the cleaning liquid and the drainage liquid flow downward from the open portion and are received by the receiving cover 22 arranged on the lower side to drain the liquid. This is to allow it to flow down to the tube 7 and collect it.
Both the main body cover 20 and the receiving cover 22 are formed of a curing sheet which is a laminated sheet of a waterproof layer which is an inner layer and a water absorption / water retention layer which is an outer layer. That is, the cleaning liquid and the drainage liquid can be blocked by the waterproof layer on the inner layer facing the air conditioner and flowed down along the inner surface of the cover for recovery. Since minute water droplets and mist of cleaning liquid and drainage floating in the space collide with the water absorption and water retention layer of the outer layer facing the air conditioner, not only these small water droplets and fog are absorbed by the water absorption and water retention layer so as not to be scattered. , It is possible to completely retain water at the water absorption position so that these liquids do not move to other places.

The receiving cover 22 is also formed of a curing sheet which is a laminated sheet of a waterproof layer which is an inner layer and a water absorption / water retention layer which is an outer layer. In this case, facing the air conditioner means facing the air outlet of the air conditioner. That is, the cleaning liquid and the drainage can be collected by blocking the cleaning liquid and the drainage by the waterproof layer on the inner layer facing the air outlet of the air conditioner and flowing down along the inner surface of the receiving cover. Since minute water droplets and mist of cleaning liquid and drainage floating in the space collide with the water absorption and water retention layer of the outer layer facing the air conditioner, not only these minute water droplets and fog are absorbed by the water absorption and water retention layer so as not to be scattered. , It is possible to completely retain water at the water absorption position so that these liquids do not move to other places.

FIG. 14 is an overall perspective view showing a cleaning method with a receiving cover 22 that can be moved up, down, left and right, which is a kind of curing cover according to the present invention.
When the air conditioner is a wall-mounted type or ceiling type air conditioner, the receiving cover 22 is arranged in a hopper shape below the air conditioner and is movable up, down, left and right by the support rod 25. The support rod 25 may also serve as a drainage tube, or a drainage tube may be provided in addition to the support rod 25. Since the mounting position and mounting height of the wall-mounted air conditioner and ceiling-type air conditioner may differ, the mounting height can be variably adjusted by expanding and contracting the support rod 25, and the location can be freely adjusted according to the mounting position. Has the advantage of being mobile.
The receiving cover 22 is also formed of a curing sheet which is a laminated sheet of a waterproof layer which is an inner layer and a water absorption / water retention layer which is an outer layer. In this case, facing the ceiling type air conditioner means facing the air outlet of the air conditioner, and facing the wall-mounted air conditioner directly means facing the air conditioner. The waterproof layer on the inner layer facing the air conditioner blocks the cleaning liquid and drainage and allows the cleaning liquid and drainage to flow down along the inner surface of the receiving cover to collect the cleaning liquid and drainage. Since minute water droplets and mist of cleaning liquid and drainage floating in the space collide with the water absorption and water retention layer of the outer layer facing the air conditioner, not only these minute water droplets and fog are absorbed by the water absorption and water retention layer so as not to be scattered. , It is possible to completely retain water at the water absorption position so that these liquids do not move to other places.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and includes various modifications, design changes, other examples, etc. within the technical scope thereof without departing from the technical idea of the present invention. Needless to say.

When the air conditioner is cleaned using the curing cover for cleaning the air conditioner according to the present invention, it surrounds a part or the whole around the air conditioner and / or the air conditioner cleaning member to prevent the cleaning liquid and the drainage from scattering. And / or drainage can be easily recovered. In particular, when the air conditioner is a wall-mounted air conditioner, if a side cover that surrounds the air conditioner side control unit is used as the curing cover, the air conditioner side control unit is completely protected from the cleaning liquid.
