Abstract
The present invention is to provide a mechanism that does not cause a situation such as corrosion of the iron tip with an air nozzle due to blowing off solder from the iron tip of the soldering iron, and a mechanism capable of coping with various shapes of iron tips. In order to achieve the object of the present invention, an iron tip cleaner device for a soldering iron includes a cleaner chamber including a wall surface and an air jetting holes that is provided in the wall surface and jets air for blowing off solder on an iron tip. The solder on the iron tip is blown off by convection air generated when the air jetted from the air jetting holes collides with the wall surface.
