Abstract

A plunger which includes an outer tube, a suction cup body, and a hair cleaner is provided. A bottom end of the outer tube is connected with the suction cup body. The hair cleaner consists of a handle, a flexible rod integrally connected with the handle and extending downward, a plurality of barb sets arranged at two sides of the flexible rod, at least one insertion hole disposed on the flexible rod, and a spike connected with a bottom edge of the insertion hole. The flexible rod of the hair cleaner is mounted in the outer tube while the hair cleaner is fixed and connected with the outer tube. Thereby users can unblock flush pipes by the plunger or remove clogged dirt from water pipes by the barb sets and the spike in the insertion hole of the hair cleaner. Therefore, the pipes are cleared easily and quickly.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A hair cleaner comprising: a handle, a flexible rod integrally connected with the handle and extending downward, a plurality of barb sets projecting from a surface of the flexible rod and each of which includes a plurality of barbs, at least one insertion hole arranged at the flexible rod and penetrating the flexible rod, and a spike having a root end connected with a bottom edge of the insertion hole and a sharp free end located opposite to the root end. 
     
     
         2 . The hair cleaner as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of barb sets is arranged at two sides of the flexible rod in a staggered manner. 
     
     
         3 . The hair cleaner as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein a plurality of sharp projections extending backward is disposed on a tip of the flexible rod. 
     
     
         4 . The hair cleaner as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein a plurality of sharp projections extending backward is disposed on a tip of the flexible rod. 
     
     
         5 . A plunger comprising: an outer tube, a suction cup body, and a hair cleaner; wherein the outer tube is a hollow tube having a bottom end connected with a top end of the suction cup body; wherein the suction cup body includes a cup-shaped body, a circular positioning segment integrally connected with a bottom edge of the cup-shaped body, and a protruding ring radially projecting outward from a junction between the cup-shaped body and the circular positioning segment; wherein the circular positioning segment is stepped and a diameter of an upper step thereof is larger than a diameter of a lower step thereof; wherein the hair cleaner includes a handle, a flexible rod integrally connected with the handle and extending downward, a plurality of barb sets projecting from a surface of the flexible rod and each of which is provided with a plurality of barbs, at least one insertion hole arranged at the flexible rod and penetrating the flexible rod, and a spike having a root end connected with a bottom edge of the insertion hole and a sharp free end located opposite to the root end; a bottom end of the handle of the hair cleaner is fixed and connected with a top end of the outer tube when the flexible rod of the hair cleaner is inserted and mounted in the outer tube. 
     
     
         6 . The plunger as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the plurality of barb sets is arranged at two sides of the flexible rod in a staggered manner. 
     
     
         7 . The plunger as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein a plurality of sharp projections extending backward is disposed on a tip of the flexible rod. 
     
     
         8 . The plunger as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the bottom end of the outer tube is provided with a first outer threaded segment while the top end of the suction cup body is mounted with an inner threaded hole; the first outer threaded segment and the inner threaded hole are threaded with each other correspondingly. 
     
     
         9 . The plunger as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein a second outer threaded segment is mounted to the bottom end of the handle while an inner threaded segment is arranged at an inner wall surface of the top end of the outer tube; the second outer threaded segment and the inner threaded segment are threaded with each other correspondingly. 
     
     
         10 . The plunger as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein a plurality of sharp projections extending backward is disposed on a tip of the flexible rod. 
     
     
         11 . The plunger as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein the bottom end of the outer tube is provided with a first outer threaded segment while the top end of the suction cup body is mounted with an inner threaded hole; the first outer threaded segment and the inner threaded hole are threaded with each other correspondingly. 
     
     
         12 . The plunger as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein a second outer threaded segment is mounted to the bottom end of the handle while an inner threaded segment is arranged at an inner wall surface of the top end of the outer tube; the second outer threaded segment and the inner threaded segment are threaded with each other correspondingly. 
     
     
         13 . The plunger as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the bottom end of the outer tube is provided with a first outer threaded segment while the top end of the suction cup body is mounted with an inner threaded hole; the first outer threaded segment and the inner threaded hole are threaded with each other correspondingly. 
     
     
         14 . The plunger as claimed in  claim 13 , wherein a second outer threaded segment is mounted to the bottom end of the handle while an inner threaded segment is arranged at an inner wall surface of the top end of the outer tube; the second outer threaded segment and the inner threaded segment are threaded with each other correspondingly. 
     
     
         15 . The plunger as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the bottom end of the outer tube is provided with a first outer threaded segment while the top end of the suction cup body is mounted with an inner threaded hole; the first outer threaded segment and the inner threaded hole are threaded with each other correspondingly. 
     
     
         16 . The plunger as claimed in  claim 15 , wherein a second outer threaded segment is mounted to the bottom end of the handle while an inner threaded segment is arranged at an inner wall surface of the top end of the outer tube; the second outer threaded segment and the inner threaded segment are threaded with each other correspondingly.
