Definitions

  • the invention relates to a vacuum cleaner filter bag.
  • EP 0 960 645 a multilayer bag wall construction in which a coarse filter layer is arranged in front of a fine filter layer in the direction of air flow.
  • the DE 20 2006 019 108 U1 relates to a vacuum cleaner filter bag for vacuum cleaner with a front bag wall containing an inlet opening through which a sucked air stream enters the vacuum cleaner filter bag during operation, and with a rear bag wall opposite the front bag wall, wherein the two bag walls are made of flexible filter material, wherein the inlet opening a Stauwand demo is arranged.
  • the filter bag has a reinforcing insert 18 on the wall of the bag opposite the inlet opening.
  • a vacuum cleaner filter bag which has in its interior a deflection device arranged in the region of the inlet opening for deflecting the air flow entering through the inlet opening. Furthermore, an air-permeable material layer is provided in the interior of the filter bag, which is unconnected to at least a part of the edge with the filter bag.
  • the object of the present invention is to further improve the filter bags known from the prior art, so that a high service life is possible with high suction power. This object is achieved by a vacuum cleaner filter bag according to claim 1.
  • the deflection strip ensures that an incoming air flow does not strike the strip of material directly.
  • the piece of material may in particular be designed such that an air flow is thereby guided on the side of the material strip facing away from the inlet opening.
  • the piece of material carries an air flow on the side of the material strip facing away from the inlet opening (ie behind the strip) in the direction of the material strip.
  • the strip of material is lifted in a simple manner by the air flow and spaced from the bag wall. He can move very well in the air flow, which has an advantageous distribution of the dust in the bag inside result.
  • the piece of material may in principle be at least partially connected to the strip of material; but it can not be connected to the strip of material.
  • the deflection strip can be designed to split the air flow into at least two partial flows. By such a division into two or more part streams a more uniform distribution of the filter cake in the vacuum cleaner filter bag is achieved. In addition, the number of particles per partial flow is reduced in comparison with the incoming air flow, which reduces the burden of the bag walls by the individual partial flows.
  • the deflection strip can be designed to split the air flow into at least two partial flows with different, in particular opposite, flow directions.
  • air enters the flow direction (inlet flow direction) through the inlet port and strikes the deflection strip.
  • the air flow is deflected, so that a change in the flow direction through the deflection strip with respect to the flow direction at the inlet opening, occurs.
  • the flow direction of the air flow or air flow direction is meant the main flow direction of the air, which is generally parallel to one wall, for example a vacuum cleaner tube or nozzle runs.
  • such a main flow direction results at every point through the vacuum cleaner tube into the bag, even if turbulence may possibly occur at individual points.
  • Opposing directions of flow means that both directions of flow have a component in the plane perpendicular to the flow direction with which an air flow strikes the deflection strip, i. that is, a component perpendicular to the inlet flow direction, wherein the two components enclose an angle of about 180 °, and wherein the components in this plane are each larger than the corresponding component parallel to the inlet flow direction.
