The container part 30 is securely held by the elastic reaction force of the claw part 52.

As shown in FIGS. 27 and 28, the electric motor 7 is disposed inside the motor stay central cylindrical portion 56 of the resin mounting board 54, and the central cylindrical portion 56
Is fixed with screws. The mounting substrate 54 has four air inlets 58 around the bottom of the central cylindrical portion 56.

The mounting board 54 is integrally formed with a scroll portion 60 having a smooth curved surface so that the air flow is directed toward the air outlet 18 of the container 1 of the deodorizer.
As shown in FIGS. 31 to 33, the mounting board 54
A cylindrical mounting projection 62 having a semicircular fitting portion 60 at the tip is integrally formed.
A hole 64 for screw insertion is formed in the center of the mounting board 54 so as to open to the surface of the mounting board 54. The semicircular portions of the fitting portion 60 of the pair of cylindrical projections 62 face in opposite directions. The mounting substrate 54 has two holes 6 at the center.
The cylindrical projection 68 forming 6 is integrally formed.

On the other hand, on the bottom of the container 1 of the deodorizer, a columnar projection 70 into which the fitting portion 60 of the cylindrical projection 62 of the mounting board 54 is fitted is integrally formed. A female screw 71 is formed at the center of the projection 70. A pin 72 that fits into the hole 66 of the cylindrical projection 68 is integrally formed on the bottom of the container 1.

The fitting portion 60 of the cylindrical projection 62 of the mounting board 54 is fitted to the projection 70 of the container 1, and the pin 72 of the container 1 is fitted to the hole 66 of the cylindrical projection 68, and a screw 74 is provided.
Is inserted into the hole 64 from the upper surface of the mounting board 54 and screwed into the female screw portion 71 of the projection 70. Thereby, the mounting board 54 is fixed to the bottom of the container 1.

With this configuration, the number of screw connection portions is as small as two, the cost can be reduced, and the mounting board 54 can be accurately positioned.

A projection 76 and a pin 72 provide a space 76 between the bottom of the container 1 and the bottom of the mounting board 54.
Is formed (see FIG. 7). The blower fan 9 is made of resin and is constituted by a centrifugal sirocco fan as shown in FIGS. 29 and 30, and a central portion 78 thereof is fixed to a rotation shaft (not shown) of the electric motor 7. It is. The electric motor 7 is disposed inside the blade portion 80 of the blower fan 9, and therefore, a plurality of connecting portions 82 connecting the central portion 78 of the blower fan 9 and the blade portion 80 are tapered. Since the center of the blower fan 9 is protruded, the cover 3 of the container 1 is shaped like a mountain curve with a gentle cross section. 29 and 30, half of the blower fan 9 is colored (hatched portion) so that the rotation state of the blower fan 9 can be easily observed through a rotation observation window described later.

Now, a slit-shaped air inlet 17 and an air outlet 18 are provided in the opposite short sides of the container 1, and the configuration thereof is as follows. That is, FIG.
As shown in the figure, a convex portion 84 is integrally formed on the mating surface of the lid 3 with the box 2, and of the convex portion 84, a portion of the opposite short side of the lid 3 is deleted by a predetermined length. Thus, when the attachment 3 is fitted to the box 2, a slit-shaped opening is formed at the portion where the projection 84 is removed.

The slit-shaped opening is connected to the air suction port 1
7. There is an air outlet 18. According to this configuration, since the inside of the container 1 can be seen through the slit-shaped opening, the slit-shaped opening portion of the lid 3, that is, the projection 84
In the removed portion of FIG.
6, and a plate-like support portion 28 (see FIG. 12) for supporting the projection 86 is integrally formed with the box 2 of the container 1.

With this configuration, even when the inside of the container 1 is viewed through the slit-shaped opening, only the projection 86 can be seen, but the deodorizing member 5 and the blower fan 9 inside the container 1 cannot be seen. On the right side of the upper surface of the lid 3 of the container 1, a rotation observation window 89 for observing the rotation state of the blower fan 9 (FIGS. 1 and 2).
Reference). The position of the rotation observation window 89 is set so that it can be seen not only from the upper surface of the lid 3 but also from the front and right sides of the container 1. Since the lid 3 is formed of a transparent acrylic resin, and a predetermined color is printed by in-mold molding, the rotation observation window 89 can be formed at the time of printing.

Next, the operation of the above configuration will be described.
The deodorizer is placed on the front dash boat of the car, for example. When sunlight enters solar cell 4 of the deodorizer, the electrons in the pair of electrons and holes generated in the pn fitting portion inside solar cell 4 by the energy of the incident light diffuse into the n-type layer. ,
By diffusing the holes into the p-type layer, the incident light energy is converted into electric energy and supplies an output current to the electric motor 7 directly connected between the output electrodes of the solar cell 4.
As a result, the electric motor 7 is driven, and the blower fan 9 rotates. By the blowing action of the blower fan 9, the air in the vehicle compartment is sucked into the container 1 from the air suction port 17 as shown by the arrow. When the air passes around the deodorizing member 5, the air takes in a deodorant component from the deodorant 32 in an amount corresponding to the opening degree of the cap 34 of the container 30 of the deodorizing member 5, and the mounting board 54 and the container The air is sucked into the blower fan 9 from the four air inlets 58 of the mounting board 54 through the space 76 with the bottom of the first mounting board 54. The sucked air is directed by the scroll part 60 and blows out from the air outlet 18 of the container 1 into the vehicle interior.

By this operation, the deodorizing component evaporated from the deodorizing member 5 is mixed into the air stream and released to the outside of the container, and therefore, has the effect of deodorizing the bad odor in the cabin where the deodorizer is placed. Will be

On the other hand, according to the present embodiment, the air inlet 17 and the air outlet 18 cover the deodorant member 5 and the blower fan 9 in the projection direction of the slope of the lid 3.
The solar cell 4 is disposed so as to overlap a virtual plane connecting the two. As a result, the portion of the lid 3 corresponding to the back surface of the solar cell 4 faces the air blowing system connecting the air inlet 17, the deodorizing member 5, the blower fan 9, and the air outlet 18.

Therefore, the air flow passing through the inside of the container 1 due to the blowing action of the blower fan 9 comes into contact with the back surface of the cover 3 on which the solar cells 4 are installed, and flows through the cover 3 by forced convection heat transfer. Continue to take away the heat in the solar cell 4 through
The temperature of the solar cell 4 can be reduced.
Of the heat efficiency and life of the device can be prevented.

By the way, according to this embodiment, the solar cell 4 is not cooled by the airflow as in the present embodiment (comparative example). In comparison, the surface temperature of the solar cell of this example was 85 ° C.
The temperature of the comparative example was 95 ° C., which indicates that the example was much better.

In this embodiment, the deodorant 3 of the deodorizing member 5 is used.
Since a gel-like material is used as the container 2 and the container 30 filled with the deodorant 32 has the shape shown in FIG. 14, the deodorant effect of the deodorant 32 can be maintained for a long time.

That is, since the deodorant 32 is filled up to the uppermost surface of the container portion 30 in the initial stage and the evaporation and divergence area is small, the amount of divergence in the initial stage can be suppressed. On the other hand, when the volume of the deodorant 32 gradually decreases and reaches a position below the upper surface of the container 30 (the tapered portion of the container 30), the deodorant 32
Does not change, but the deodorant 32 shrinks as shown in FIG. 22, and the substantial divergent area increases. This deodorant 3
FIG. 23 shows the relationship between the divergence amount and the time of No. 2. In the figure, the broken lines indicate the cylindrical shape of the container portion, and the actual battle indicates the shape of the container portion of the present embodiment. As can be understood from FIG. 23, according to the shape of the container portion of this embodiment, the amount of divergence in the initial stage can be suppressed, and the amount of divergence slightly increases in the middle, so that the deodorizing effect is maintained for a long period of time. What can be done. Note that the amount of the deodorant emitted varies depending on the rotation range of the cap 34 attached to the container 30 of the deodorant member 5. This is shown in FIG. 24, in which the ordinate represents the life time of the deodorant 32, and the abscissa represents the opening area between the cap 34 and the container 30, and a desirable opening area is an example. In other words, the life is about 25 mm ² when the life is about 2 to 3 months (about 500 hours).

This data is based on the specifications of the deodorizer of the following embodiment. [Container] width: 104 mm, depth: 140 mm, height: 40 m

Therefore, when the cover 3 is opened when the deodorizing member 5 is replaced, the rotation of the blower fan 9 is automatically stopped, so that the deodorizing member 5 can be replaced safely. Further, since no switch or the like is used, the configuration is simple.

In this embodiment, a rotation observation window 89 is provided at the right end of the lid 3 of the container 1 so as to be visible from the upper surface of the lid 3 and the front and right sides of the container 1. Particularly, in the case of a right-hand drive vehicle, since the deodorizer is installed on the left side of the front dashboard, the rotation state of the blower fan 9 can be easily changed through the rotation observation window 89 without moving the face position much more than the driver's line of sight. Can be observed, which can contribute to safe driving.

In this embodiment, the air inlet 1
7. Since the air outlet 18 is formed on the mating surface between the box 2 and the lid 3 of the container 1, the design is simpler than the case where it is formed on the box 2 or the lid 3, for example. Further, since the convex portions 86 are formed in the respective ports 17 and 18, the deodorizing member 5, the blower fan 9, etc. in the container 1 cannot be seen through the respective ports 17 and 18 due to the convex portions 86.

According to the present embodiment, the upper portion of the blower fan 9 has a convex shape and, in addition, the electric motor 7
The height dimension of the electric motor 7 and the blower fan 9 is reduced. Further, the lid 3 of the container 1 also has a gentle mountain-shaped curve shape with the cross section having the vicinity of the axial center of the blower fan 9 as the highest vertex.

With such a configuration, the upper convex portion of the blower fan 9 can be easily accommodated in the container 1. In addition, since the solar cell 4 is installed on the inclined surface 12 of the cover 3 having the chevron shape, the sunlight can be easily incident on the solar cell 4.

Further, in the present embodiment, the air inlet 17, the deodorant member 5, the blower fan 9, and the air outlet 18 are arranged substantially in a straight line as a configuration of the air blowing system of the deodorizer, so The odor device itself can be flattened, and even if a deodorant device is installed on the front dashboard and rear tray, it does not obstruct the front view and the rear view. In addition, the pressure loss of the blowing system can be minimized, the output of the electric motor 7 decreases, and the shape of the solar cell 4 can be reduced.

According to the present embodiment, the solar cell 4 is provided in the recess 14 of the slope 12 on the outer surface of the lid 3 of the container 1 via the so-called double-sided tape 16 provided with an adhesive layer on both sides of an elastic base material. Due to the difference in the coefficient of thermal expansion between the glass substrate of the solar cell 4 and the auxiliary member 3, the thermal stress acting on the glass substrate can be absorbed by the elastic base material of the double-sided tape 16. Further, mechanical stress caused by vibration of the deodorizer itself can be similarly absorbed by the elastic base material of the double-sided tape 16.

Further, according to the present embodiment, since the cap 34 stops at the predetermined position with respect to the container 30 of the deodorizing member 5, the cap 34 does not open too much due to the vibration of the automobile or the like. It is also possible to prevent an infant from accidentally putting the deodorant 32 into his mouth.

In this embodiment, a small storage battery 88, such as a nickel-cadmium battery, which is charged by the power output of the solar cell 4, is installed inside the box 2, and the storage battery 88 is charged by the surplus power output of the solar cell 4. The configuration is such that: Therefore, at night, when the incident light energy due to sunlight cannot be obtained, the electric motor 7 is driven by the storage battery 88 and the deodorizer can be used. Reference numeral 90 denotes a backflow prevention diode inserted and connected between one output terminal of the solar cell 4 and one end of the storage battery 88. The diode has a small forward voltage drop (about 0.3 V). A Schottky barrier diode is used.

An electric circuit diagram of the present embodiment is as shown in FIG. 38, in which 92 is a switch. In the present embodiment, the connection between the solar cell 4 and the electric motor 7 is turned ON and OFF by the switch 92.

An opening 25 is provided, a plate 91 made of a transparent resin such as acrylic resin is fixed to the lid 3 so as to cover the opening 25, and inside the box 2 below the opening 25,
The solar cell 4 is suspended and fixed via a suspension member 93. Note that other configurations are the same as those shown in FIGS.
This embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment, and is omitted.

According to this configuration, sunlight reaches the solar cell 4 inside the box 2 through the transparent resin plate 91 and the opening 25. In addition, the airflow flowing inside the container 1 flows in contact with the upper surface and the lower surface of the solar cell 4, and the cooling performance of the solar cell 4 can be improved. The arrows in the figure indicate the flow of the air flow.
