AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing solutions for mini whiteboards require multiple steps to erase and store, leading to potential contamination from wiping residues and inefficient surface cleaning.

Method used

A mechanical storage rack with integrated wiping pads that clean the whiteboard surface during storage, using cam tracking elements and one-way stops to ensure contact with the surface, followed by retracting the pads into a waste container.

Benefits of technology

Facilitates efficient, contamination-free cleaning of mini whiteboards during storage, reducing the need for manual residue removal and ensuring clean surfaces before removal from the shelf.

Abstract

The invention relates to the storage and cleaning of mini whiteboards used in classrooms. It is a related shelf. Each storage slot (2) on the shelf body (1) contains a mini The first and second wiping pads (3, which come into contact with opposite faces of the whiteboard (12), 4) is located. Wiping pads, cam tracking elements (5), guide surfaces (6), single It is driven by directional stops (7) and return springs (8). Mini When the whiteboard is placed in its storage slot, the erasing pads are printed on the surfaces. It makes contact and wipes the wooden surfaces. One-way stops when the wood is being removed. It moves freely in the direction of travel and the return springs wipe the pads off the board. Removes residues from surfaces. Residues formed during wiping pass through the residue channel (9). The residue is collected in the removable container (10). Thus, the storage and cleaning functions It is assembled within the same mechanical structure and during the removal of the cleaned board Re-contamination is reduced.

Description

TARIFF Self-erasing mini whiteboard storage rack with a simple placement motion. Technical Area The invention relates to a storage rack for mini whiteboards that erase themselves when placed in it. mechanical physical tools and devices used in educational settings It relates to the improvement of their functions. State of the Art Vertical shelves for storing mini whiteboards, whiteboard surfaces Separate erasers and automatic cleaning mechanisms are known for erasing. US20040037612A1 document describes wiping the marker board with cleaning fluid. An apparatus used in conjunction with the container is described. US20240140131A1 The document also mentions a method for mechanically cleaning the whiteboard eraser. It includes a storage rack for tools and erasers. Known solutions address the board surface, the eraser, or the storage function separately. It takes two steps when placing the mini student whiteboard into its storage slot. wiping the surface and removing the wiping elements during the removal of the board wiping residues are removed from the surface by a one-way mechanical contact. The collection of data in a common reservoir is not explained collectively. Purpose of the Invention The invention aims to provide a separate erasing process for mini whiteboards used in classrooms. cleaning during storage without requiring any removal of wiping residues collecting it without spreading it around and cleaning the surface before removing it from the shelf The goal is to create a mechanical storage rack that reduces contamination. Explanation of the Figures Figure 1: Front view of the shelf with multiple storage compartments. Figure 2: Cross-sectional view of a storage compartment. Figure 3: View of the wiping elements in their placement position. Figure 4: Appearance of the wiping elements in the retraction position. Explanation of References in Figures 1: Shelf body 2: Storage compartment 3: First wiping pad 4: Second wiping pad 5: Camera tracking element 35 6: Guide surface 7: One-way stopper 8: Return spring 9: Now the channel 10: Removable waste container 1 11: Wooden support surface 12: Mini whiteboard 13: Separator body 14: Nest entrance Description of the Invention The invention involves multiple mini whiteboards (12) in a vertical or inclined position. a shelf body (1) that allows storage and on the shelf body (1) It contains storage compartments (2) separated by separate bodies (13). Each There is a slot opening (14) at the entrance of the storage slot (2). In each storage slot (2), the mini whiteboard (12) touches two opposite writing surfaces. The first wiping pad (3) and the second wiping pad (4) are positioned in such a way that they will be placed Instead of being directly fixed, the wiper pads (3, 4) follow the cam. Cam tracking elements (5) are attached to the movable carriers carrying the elements (5). with guide surfaces (6), one-way stops (7) and return springs (8). He is working. When the mini whiteboard (12) is pushed from the slot opening (14) into the storage slot (2) One-way stops (7) limit the backflow of the cam tracking elements (5) and It ensures that the wiping pads (3, 4) make a pressed contact with the wooden surfaces. Thus, the board Both surfaces are mechanically wiped clean throughout the movement of the wood. When the pullback begins, the one-way stops (7) move in the free direction. and return springs (8) lift the wiping pads (3, 4) away from the surface. Residues generated during the wiping process extend under the storage slots (2). It is directed to channel (9). Now channel (9) is located at the bottom of the shelf body (1). The removable waste container (10) is opened. The container (10) is opened from the body for cleaning purposes. It can be pulled out. Storage is necessary to keep the board in a stable position on the shelf. There is a wooden support surface (11) at the back of its socket. In the invention, the wiping pads (3, 4) are made of replaceable textile, felt, microfiber or similar materials. It can be produced from dry erase materials. Shelf body (1), divider bodies (13) and Now the container (10) can be made of plastic, composite or metal material. How the invention can be applied to industry. The invention enables the mass production of mini whiteboards used in schools and educational settings. It can be manufactured for storage and cleaning. Body and reservoir parts are injection molded. molding, extrusion or sheet metal forming; springs and moving parts It can be produced using standard mechanical manufacturing methods. 2

Claims

REQUESTS 1. The invention is a shelf for storing mini whiteboards; its feature is that it can hold at least one shelf body (1) containing storage slot (2), mini writing in storage slot (2) the first board is positioned so that it will touch the opposite faces of the board (12) wiping pad (3) and second wiping pad (4), cam carrying the said wiping pads to the tracking elements (5), to the guide surfaces interacting with the cam tracking elements (5) (6), As you move towards the wooden storage direction, wipe the surfaces of the wooden surfaces with the wiping pads (3, 4). The cam tracking elements (5) that make contact and are released when the board is removed one-way stops (7) that allow movement in the direction of the wiper pads return springs (8) that remove them from the wooden surfaces during removal, wiping The residual channel (9) directs the residuals and the removable channel (9) is connected with the residual channel (9).
