Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Staubsauger mit einem Fliehkraftabscheider nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1.The invention relates to a vacuum cleaner with a centrifugal separator according to the preamble of
Derartige Staubsauger sind aus verschiedensten Anmeldungen bekannt. Bestandteile eines derartigen Staubsaugers sind im Wesentlichen eine oder mehrere Düsen zum Einsaugen des Staubes, ein Saugrohr, welches je nach Aufbau des Staubsaugers als Boden-, Hand- oder Upright-sauger kürzer oder länger bzw. starr oder flexibel ausgeführt ist, ein oder mehrere Fliehkraftabscheider, ein Staubbehälter, der Bestandteil des oder der Fliehkraftabscheider sein kann oder als separater Staubsammelbehälter ausgebildet ist, ein Unterdruckraum, über den die Luft von einem Gebläse angesaugt wird, sowie gegebenenfalls ein Feinstaubfilter zum Endreinigen der austretenden Luft.Such vacuum cleaners are known from various applications. Components of such a vacuum cleaner are essentially one or more nozzles for sucking the dust, a suction pipe, which is designed depending on the structure of the vacuum cleaner as a floor, hand or upright sucker shorter or longer or rigid or flexible, one or more centrifugal , A dust container, which may be part of the centrifugal or the centrifugal separator or is designed as a separate dust collector, a vacuum chamber through which the air is sucked by a fan, and optionally a fine dust filter for cleaning the outgoing air.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Staubsauger mit Fliehkraftabscheider zu entwickeln, der noch einfacher zu bedienen ist.The invention has for its object to develop a vacuum cleaner with centrifugal separator, which is even easier to use.
Gelöst wird die Aufgabe gemäß der Erfindung durch einen Staubsauger mit Fliehkraftabscheider mit den Merkmalen von Anspruch 1.The object is achieved according to the invention by a vacuum cleaner with centrifugal separator with the features of
Erfindungsgemäß ist die Verbindung zwischen Fliehkraftabscheider und Gehäuse flexibel und federnd ausgeführt, so dass der Fliehkraftabscheider selbsttätig in seine Ruheposition vom Gehäuse weg schwenkt und nur gegen die durch die Federkraft bewirkte Rückstellkraft mittels einer lösbaren Befestigung am Gehäuse gehalten wird. Sobald die Halterung gelöst wird schwenkt der Fliehkraftabscheider also automatisch vom Gehäuse weg und gibt damit den unter ihm liegenden Staubsammelbehälter frei, so dass dieser entnommen werden kann. Dadurch dass der Fliehkraftabscheider selbsttätig vom Gehäuse wegschwenkt ist es nicht mehr notwendig, dass der Benutzer den Fliehkraftabscheider zur Entnahme der Staubbox vom Gehäuse abnimmt. Der Benutzer muss nunmehr lediglich einen Auslösemechanismus betätigen, der die Halterung des Fliehkraftabscheiders öffnet, woraufhin dieser automatisch hochklappt und die Staubbox freigibt. Dies erlaubt eine besonders benutzerfreundliche Einhandbedienung des Staubsaugers sogar bei der Entnahme des Staubsammelbehälters.According to the connection between the centrifugal separator and the housing is flexible and resilient, so that the centrifugal automatically pivots away from the housing in its rest position and is held against the restoring force caused by the spring force by means of a releasable attachment to the housing. As soon as the holder is released, the centrifugal separator thus automatically pivots away from the housing and thus releases the dust collecting container below it so that it can be removed. The fact that the centrifugal separator automatically pivots away from the housing, it is no longer necessary that the user decreases the centrifugal separator for removing the dust box from the housing. The user now only has to actuate a trigger mechanism which opens the holder of the centrifugal separator, whereupon this automatically folds up and releases the dust box. This allows a particularly user-friendly one-hand operation of the vacuum cleaner even when removing the dust collector.
Vorteilhafterweise ist der Fliehkraftabscheider an dem dem Schwenkmechanismus gegenüberliegenden Ende mittels einer lösbaren Verbindung am Gehäuse in seiner Betriebsposition gehaltert. Aus einer Halterung, die möglichst weit entfernt von dem Rückstellelement des Fliehkraftabscheiders angeordnet ist, löst sich der Fliehkraftabscheider am einfachsten von selbst, da der Fliehkraftabscheider aufgrund der Rückstellkraft die über den langen Hebel besonders effizient wirkt einfach aus seiner Halterung gehoben werden kann.Advantageously, the centrifugal separator is supported at the end opposite the pivoting mechanism by means of a releasable connection to the housing in its operating position. From a holder which is arranged as far away from the return element of the centrifugal separator, the centrifugal separator easiest way by itself, because the centrifugal separator due to the restoring force acting over the long lever is particularly efficient simply lifted from its holder.
In einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist die Halterung für den Fliehkraftabscheider am Gehäusegriff angeordnet. Auch diese Maßnahme unterstützt die Möglichkeit der Einhandbedienung.In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the holder for the centrifugal separator is arranged on the housing handle. This measure also supports the possibility of one-hand operation.
Vorteilhafterweise ist die Verbindung mit der der Fliehkraftabscheider am Gehäuse fixiert ist als Rastverbindung ausgebildet. Die Rastverbindung ist mit einem Auslöseknopf einfach betätigbar, in dem ein Rasthaken aus seiner Verbindung gelöst wird.Advantageously, the connection with the centrifugal separator is fixed to the housing is designed as a latching connection. The locking connection is easily actuated with a release button, in which a latching hook is released from its connection.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist das den Fliehkraftabscheider in die Entnahmeposition des Staubsammelbehälters schwenkende flexible Element als elastischer Schlauch ausgebildet. Je nach Formgebung und Materialwahl kann ein derartiger Schlauch intrinsische Federwirkung aufweisen. Dies stellt eine besonders kostengünstige Lösung eines Rückstellelements dar, da eine rohrförmige Luftführung zwischen Fliehkraftabscheider und Gehäuse ohnehin benötigt wird und keine weiteren Bauteile nötig sind, wenn die Federwirkung eines solchen Elements selbst ausgenützt wird.In a further advantageous embodiment, the flexible element pivoting the centrifugal separator into the removal position of the dust collecting container is designed as an elastic hose. Depending on the shape and choice of material, such a tube may have intrinsic spring action. This represents a particularly cost-effective solution of a restoring element, since a tubular air duct between centrifugal separator and housing is needed anyway and no other components are needed if the spring action of such an element itself is utilized.
Eine besonders vorteilhafte Ausführungsform eines flexiblen Schlauches mit Rückstellkraft ist ein Schlauch mit integrierter Spiralfeder. Bei einem derartigen Schlauch kann der Schlauch selbst aus einem besonders kostengünstigen Material ausgebildet sein, in das lediglich eine metallische Spiralfeder eingegossen ist. Derartige Schläuche sind als Standardelemente erhältlich.A particularly advantageous embodiment of a flexible hose with restoring force is a hose with integrated spiral spring. In such a hose, the hose itself may be formed of a particularly inexpensive material, in which only a metallic coil spring is cast. Such hoses are available as standard elements.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist im Bereich der Verbindung zwischen Fliehkraftabscheider und Gehäuse ein Gelenk vorgesehen, das die Schwenkbewegung des Fliehkraftabscheiders führt. Dadurch dass die Bewegungsrichtung durch das Gelenk eingeschränkt ist, kann der flexible Schlauch besonders einfach ausgeführt sein, da er lediglich der Luftführung und der Ausübung der Rückstellkraft dient, nicht aber so stabil sein muss, dass er den gesamten Fliehkraftabscheider in einer vorgegebenen Bahn hält. Diese Funktion wird nunmehr durch ein einfach strukturiertes Gelenk übernommen.In a further advantageous embodiment, a joint is provided in the region of the connection between centrifugal force separator and housing, which performs the pivoting movement of the centrifugal separator. The fact that the direction of movement is limited by the joint, the flexible hose can be made very simple, since it only serves the air flow and the exercise of the restoring force, but need not be so stable that it keeps the entire centrifugal separator in a predetermined path. This function is now taken over by a simply structured joint.
Vorteilhafterweise weist das Gelenk eine Kulissenführung auf. Hierdurch lässt sich eine sehr kontrollierte, extrem Verschleiß unempfindliche Schwenkbewegung des Fliehkraftabscheiders realisieren, die auch einfach durch Anschläge eingeschränkt werden kann.Advantageously, the joint has a slotted guide. This makes it possible to realize a very controlled, extremely wear-insensitive pivoting movement of the centrifugal separator, which can also be easily limited by stops.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist das den Fliehkraftabscheider wegschwenkende Rückstellelement über ein federndes Gelenk realisiert. Dadurch kann der Verbindungsschlauch zwischen Fliehkraftabscheider und Gehäuse besonders einfach ausgebildet sein, über das Gelenk wird eine kontrollierte Schwenkbewegung bewirkt.In a further advantageous embodiment, the return element pivoting away from the centrifugal separator is realized via a resilient joint. This can the connecting hose between centrifugal separator and housing be particularly simple, via the joint a controlled pivoting movement is effected.
Vorteilhafterweise ist eine Schenkelfeder in ein kulissengeführtes Gelenk eingebaut. Dies ist eine besonders kostengünstige und beständige Ausführungsform eines derartigen Rückstellelements.Advantageously, a leg spring is installed in a backdrop-guided joint. This is a particularly inexpensive and stable embodiment of such a return element.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist das die Schwenkbewegung führende Gelenk an einem Verbindungsstutzen angeordnet, der den Fliehkraftabscheider lösbar im Gehäuse haltert. Dadurch stehen für den Aufbau des Gelenkes zwei starre Bauteile zur Verfügung, die über das Gelenk verbindbar sind. Dies ist zum einen der lösbare Verbindungsstutzen, zum anderen der Fliehkraftabscheider, der gegen den Verbindungsstutzen geschwenkt wird. Dadurch dass das Gelenk nicht am Gehäuse selbst, sondern am Verbindungsstutzen befestigt ist, kann der gesamte Fliehkraftabscheider gemeinsam mit dem Rückstellelement und einem eventuellen Verbindungsschlauch entnommen werden, falls es zu einer Verstopfung im Bereich des Luftauslasses oder der Verbindung selbst kommt. Somit kann eine derartige Verstopfung einfach behoben werden, ohne dass ein Kundendienst für den Staubsauger angefordert werden muss.In a further advantageous embodiment, the pivoting joint leading joint is arranged on a connecting piece, which holds the centrifugal separator releasably in the housing. As a result, two rigid components are available for the construction of the joint, which can be connected via the joint. This is on the one hand, the detachable connection piece, on the other hand, the centrifugal separator, which is pivoted against the connecting piece. The fact that the joint is not attached to the housing itself, but on the connection piece, the entire centrifugal separator can be removed together with the return element and a possible connecting hose, if there is a blockage in the region of the air outlet or the connection itself. Thus, such a blockage can be easily resolved without having to request customer service for the vacuum cleaner.
Vorzugsweise ist der Verbindungsstutzen über eine Rastverbindung am Gehäuse fixiert. Eine Rastverbindung ist im Falle einer Verstopfung für die Fehlerbehebung einfach lösbar, so dass der Fliehkraftabscheider in diesem Fall ohne den Einsatz von Werkzeug jederzeit problemlos entnommen werden kann. Weiterer Vorteil einer Rastverbindung ist, dass am Gehäuse keinerlei Gewinde oder andere Verbindungselemente vorzusehen sind, so dass das Gehäuse sehr einfach konstruiert werden kann.Preferably, the connection piece is fixed to the housing via a latching connection. A locking connection is easily solvable in the event of a blockage for troubleshooting, so that the centrifugal separator can be removed easily at any time in this case without the use of tools. Another advantage of a latching connection is that the housing no threads or other fasteners are provided, so that the housing can be very easily constructed.
