Stain removing device and stain removing unit

Abstract

A stain removing device that removes stains with a constant knocking force and speed throughout and steadily supply liquid needed to remove stains. The stain removing device includes a head part forming a knocking surface, a vibration unit causing the head part to vibrate in a direction substantially orthogonal to the knocking surface by supplying power, a liquid containing part for containing liquid, and a water supply path of its one end is connected to the liquid containing part and the other end being opened around the head part. The water supply path is configured to supply the liquid to the periphery of the head part via the other end, along with the vibration of head part caused by the vibration unit.

         2 . A stain removing device, comprising:
 a head part provided with a knocking surface;   a vibration unit causing the head part to vibrate in a direction substantially orthogonal with the knocking surface by supplying power;   a liquid containing part for containing liquid; and   a water supply path extending from the liquid containing part through the head part to the knocking surface and having an expending opening end facing the knocking surface,   wherein the liquid is supplied to the knocking surface from the liquid containing part via the water supply path, along with the vibration of head part caused by the vibration of the vibration unit.   
     
     
         3 . The stain removing device of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a non-flexible waterproof cover part surrounding a side surface of the head part,   wherein the vibration unit has an elastic member capable of extending and contracting in a direction substantially orthogonal with the knocking surface, the head part is protruded by an elastic force of the elastic member, and   wherein an operation end of the head part is arranged at a position slightly protruding from a protruding end of the waterproof cover part.   
     
     
         4 . The stain removing device of  claim 3 , wherein the waterproof cover part has a heater capable of generating heat when being supplied power. 
     
     
         5 . The stain removing device of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a liquid amount adjustment part for causing the liquid to drop from the other end of the water supply path by utilizing the vibration caused by the vibration unit and capable of adjusting a dropping amount of the liquid.   
     
     
         6 . The stain removing device of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a detergent containing part for containing a liquid detergent, and a detergent supply unit for supplying the detergent in the detergent containing part to the periphery of the head part.   
     
     
         7 . The stain removing device of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a vapor ejection unit capable of injecting vapor toward the head part.   
     
     
         8 . (canceled) 
     
     
         9 . The stain removing device of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 a non-flexible waterproof cover part surrounding a side surface of the head part,   wherein the vibration unit has an elastic member capable of extending and contracting in a direction substantially orthogonal with the knocking surface, the head part is protruded by an elastic force of the elastic member, and   wherein an operation end of the head part is arranged at a position slightly protruding from a protruding end of the waterproof cover part.   
     
     
         10 . The stain removing device of  claim 9 , wherein the waterproof cover part has a heater capable of generating heat when being supplied power. 
     
     
         11 . The stain removing device of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 a detergent containing part for containing a liquid detergent, and a detergent supply unit for supplying the detergent in the detergent containing part to the periphery of the head part.   
     
     
         12 . The stain removing device of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 a vapor ejection unit capable of injecting vapor toward the head part.   
     
     
         13 . A stain removing unit, comprising:
 a stain removing device having:
 a head part provided with a knocking surface; 
 a vibration unit causing the head part to vibrate in a direction substantially orthogonal with the knocking surface by supplying power; 
 a liquid containing part for containing liquid; and 
 a water supply path; and 
   a heating apparatus having:
 a heater being capable of generating heat when being supplied power, and 
 a heating plate provided with a knocked surface, on which a force is exerted by the head part, and conveying the heat generated by the heater; 
   wherein the water supply path:
 has one end being connected to the liquid containing part and the other end being open to a periphery of the head part, wherein the liquid is supplied to the periphery of the head part from the other end of the water supply path, along with a vibration of head part caused by a vibration of the vibration unit; or 
 extends from the liquid containing part through the head part to the knocking surface and having an expending opening end facing the knocking surface, wherein the liquid is supplied to the knocking surface from the liquid containing part via the water supply path, along with the vibration of head part caused by the vibration of the vibration unit.
