Description

D E S C R I P C I Ó N

Hygienic safety multipurpose accessory.

TECHNICAL SECTOR

The present invention refers to a hygienic safety multipurpose accessory, the purpose of which is to provide a portable pocket device that allows to carry out different daily tasks safely against possible infections, such as pressing elevator buttons, pressing switches , open doors of both homes / facilities and vehicles, etc., all without risk of contagion by the user, with a structure such that, in an inoperative situation, the part exposed to viruses or germs of the device is hidden and therefore both isolated, in order to be able to transport the device in a pocket or similar, without risk of contagion or spread of any kind.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

As it is known, certain viruses and bacteria can be extremely dangerous for public health, being a very serious problem from the point of view of the use of common spaces or elements, such as elevators, main access doors to buildings, taxis, tapas garbage containers, etc.

Trying to obviate this problem, numerous accessories have proliferated that allow doors to be opened, button presses, switches, etc., through said accessories, avoiding direct contact with the user's hands and therefore in contact with said viruses, germs, or bacteria.

However, all these devices have a common problem, and that is that the means they use to carry out these tasks are exposed, that is, they are susceptible to being touched with the user's hand, for example when reusing the device, this being, for example, stored in a pocket.

This forces having to sterilize these types of devices after each use, which is an arduous task and it would be desirable to minimize or eliminate them.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The accessory that is recommended solves the aforementioned problems in a fully satisfactory way, based on a simple but effective solution.

For this, and more specifically, the device of the invention is constituted from a telescopic body, in which a hollow outer casing participates, in which a second body is axially displaceable by means of a pin that plays in the within a groove provided in the outer casing, a groove whose end points of its path determine the total extraction or collection of a kind of hook linked to the inner part, which in an inoperative situation will be completely hidden within the outer casing, while that in the operating position, will determine a multifunction element, the tip of which can be used to press buttons or switches of very different natures, such as light switches, bells, telephones, elevator push buttons, etc., while the angled configuration of this element allows it to be used as a pulling element for handles, door handles, both in buildings and vehicles items, etc.

The internal body will be linked to the outer casing in addition to the manual actuation pin previously described through a compression-working spring, so that said spring tends to make the internal part and consequently the hook-like element come out, if well this element, as previously mentioned, can be locked in an inoperative situation, being perfectly isolated within the main casing by virtue of the configuration provided for the drive slot, which in correspondence with its lower end may have a double kink in which to fit the pin in a safe and stable way, and which corresponds to the pick-up or retracting position of the piece as a hook.

This locking element also serves as a means of protection for children, depending on the performance of the chosen spring, so that it requires sufficient effort to retract it so that a child cannot carry out said maneuver.

Said hook-like part will present a rounded configuration on all its edges, in order not to cause damage during use.

The casing may have an ergonomic configuration externally, as well as being assisted by a closing cover.

In this way, the user can transport the accessory in a pocket without the risk of having to touch at any time any element exposed to viruses or bacteria, specifically the aforementioned piece as a hook, which can be removed at the exact moment of its use. to press the button or button in question, or pull the door, cover, handle, handle or element that you need, hiding the part again so that it is perfectly isolated from the outside without posing a risk of contagion to the user.

In this way, an extremely effective as well as ecological device is achieved, since it does not require having to be constantly washed and disinfected, thus reducing the consumption of water, soap, bleach, alcohol, etc., also avoiding the use of disposable gloves, with the consequent environmental problem that this entails,

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

To complement the description that will be made below and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, according to a preferred example of practical embodiment thereof, a set of drawings is included as an integral part of said description. where, by way of illustration and not limitation, the following has been represented:

Figure 1 shows an exploded view of a hygienic safety multipurpose accessory made in accordance with the object of the present invention.

Figure 2.- Shows a front elevation view and in transparency, in order to visualize the relative position of the different parts of the device in the operating position.

Figure 3.- Shows a view similar to that of Figure 2, but in an inoperative position.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

In view of the figures outlined, it can be seen how the multipurpose accessory of the invention is constituted from a telescopic body, based on a tubular outer casing (1), closed inferiorly, and an internal body (2), smaller height than the outer casing (1) and axially displaceable in its bosom against the tension of a spring (3), by means of a pin (4) that plays in a groove (6) provided in the outer casing (1), of vertically elongated configuration, and which has a double bend (7) corresponding to its lower extremity as a position for blocking the accessory in an inoperative situation.

The internal body (2) includes superiorly a kind of hook (5), which is linked by rivets, welds or by any other conventional means, capable of being hidden and isolated within the outer casing (1), as shown Figure 3, as well as emerging, as shown in Figure 2, in order to determine a multi-use accessory, ideal for pressing buttons, switches or buttons without risk of manual contagion, through the free end of said hook, element that by said hook-like configuration can be used in parallel as a pulling element to pull handles, handles, doors and the like, all in a very safe way.

In this way, and as previously stated, when the device is not going to be used it will lock in the position shown in figure 3, leaving the hook (5) perfectly isolated and inaccessible to the user, avoiding accidental virus transfers , bacteria or germs, the device being able to be comfortably carried in a pocket, due to its contained dimensions, and be extended, as shown in figure 2, at the exact moment that its functions are required, so that the device is isolated again. hook (5) after completing the task in question.
