Abstract: A self-propelled cleaning device for a tube where it does not revolve along the inner circumferential wall of the tube used as a piping when desired, and further permitting such a device to revolve along the inner circumferential wall of tube as an occasion demands. The cleaning device for a tube comprises a nozzle supporting body including a main flow path in an axial direction, and for self propelling having ejection holes in an oblique direction communicating with the main flow path formed on the upstream side to which a hose is connected. The main flow path communicates with a liquid supply path formed on the secondary side of a bearing portion for supporting a tubular revolving body having ejection holes for an unbalanced force. A slide valve is internally provided on the secondary side of the nozzle supporting body and is constantly forced in a valve seat direction by a spring member.

Abstract: A cleaner for piping according to this invention comprises: a nozzle supporting body having first injection holes for allowing the cleaner to be self-propelled in a backward direction of the piping, a nozzle supported by the nozzle supporting body and having a second injection hole for thrusting the cleaner onto the inner wall surface of piping, and a nozzle guide member in the form of an arm, one end of which is fixedly attached to the nozzle, wherein a connecting member is provided at a suitable portion, e.g., the intermediate portion of the nozzle guide member, a blade member for removing residual remaining within piping being attached on one side of the connecting member, a slide member slidable on the inner circumferential wall of piping being attached on the other side of the connecting member.

Abstract: A cleaning device for a tube of this invention comprises a nozzle supporting body fixedly attached to the insertion end portion of a cleaning hose adapted to be inserted into the tube in order to allow the cleaning device to be self-propelled and to allow a nozzle to be easily guided along the inner peripheral wall of the tube, the nozzle supported by the nozzle supporting body and having a first injection hole directed toward the inner wall of the tube, and an elongated nozzle guide member one end portion of which is fixedly to the nozzle, wherein second injection holes are formed in an oblique direction at the tubular portion of the nozzle supporting body so as to permit the cleaning device to be self-propelled.
