Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Staubsaugerschlauch mit elektrischen Leitern nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a vacuum cleaner hose with electrical conductors according to the preamble of claim 1.

Es ist bereits ein Staubsaugerschlauch der im Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1 genannten Art vorgeschlagen worden. Der Träger ist hierbei durch ein im Spritzvorgang eingebrachtes thermoplastisches Material mit dem Schlauch verbunden. Auf die gleiche Weise ist die Endbuchse im Schlauch befestigt. Das zur Befestigung des Trägers auf dem Schlauch und zur Befestigung der Endbuchse im Schlauch verwendete Material ist entweder dem Schlauchmaterial gleich oder ähnlich, so daß die mit ihm hergestellten Verbindungen ihren Zweck erfüllen. Die Verbindungen können nicht zerstörungsfrei gelöst werden. Der Spritzvorgang ist aufwendig, erfordert Fachkräfte und besondere Einrichtungen zu seiner Durchführung.It is already a vacuum cleaner hose mentioned in the preamble of claim 1 Kind have been suggested. The carrier is in this case introduced by a spraying process thermoplastic material connected to the hose. The same The end bush is fixed in the hose. That for fixing the carrier on the hose and material used to fasten the end bushing in the hose is either the same or similar to the hose material, so that those made with it Connections serve their purpose. The connections cannot be non-destructive be solved. The spraying process is complex, requires specialists and special Implementation facilities.

    • In der Zeichnung ist mit 1 ein aus einem weichen thermoplastischen Kunststoff bestehender Schlauch bezeichnet, der außen wendelförmig verlaufende Wellentäler 1a und Wellenberge 1b aufweist.In the drawing, 1 is an existing one made of a soft thermoplastic Designated hose, the outer helical troughs 1a and Has wave crests 1b.

    Auf dem Schlauch 1 ist ein aus härterem Kunststoff als der Schlauch bestehender Träger für elektrische Schleifringe 3 befestigt. An den Schleifringen 3 ist jeweils ein elektrischer Leiter 4 angeschlossen. Die Leiter 4 sind im Schlauch 1 auf eine weiter unten näher beschriebene Weise angeordnet.On the hose 1 is made of a harder plastic than the hose Carrier for electrical slip rings 3 attached. There is one on each of the slip rings 3 electrical conductor 4 connected. The conductors 4 are in the hose 1 on one arranged below described in more detail.

    In den Schlauch 1 greift eine Endbuchse 5 ein, deren Bestimmungslage gegen einfache Herausnahme gesichert ist.In the hose 1 engages an end bushing 5, the determination position against simple Removal is secured.

    Der Träger ist aus zwei Teilen gebildet. Der eine Teil ist ein Buchsenring 2a, der mit einem Schleifring 3 bestückt ist und einen ringsum geschlossenen Mantel aufweist. Der andere Teil besteht aus einer vor dem Buchsenring 2a angeordneten Hülse 2b, die mit zwei weiteren Schleifringen 3 bestückt ist. Die Hülse 2b weist einen durchgehenden Axialschlitz 6 auf.The carrier is made up of two parts. One part is a socket ring 2a, the with is equipped with a slip ring 3 and has an all-round closed jacket. The other part consists of a sleeve 2b arranged in front of the bushing ring 2a is equipped with two further slip rings 3. The sleeve 2b has a continuous Axial slot 6 on.

    An die innere Mantelfläche der Hülse 2b ist mindestens ein Gewindegang 7 angeformt, der ein Gegengewinde für die Wellentäler 1a und Wellenberge 1b des Schlauches 1 bildet. Die Hülse 2b wird auf den Schlauch 1 aufgeschraubt, nachdem der Buchsenring 2a auf den Schlauch 1 aufgeschoben ist. At least one thread 7 is formed on the inner lateral surface of the sleeve 2b, which has a mating thread for the wave troughs 1a and wave crests 1b of the hose 1 forms. The sleeve 2b is screwed onto the hose 1 after the sleeve ring 2a is pushed onto the hose 1.

    Die Enden der elektrischen Leiter 4 sind aus einer im Schlauch 1 angeordneten Schutzhülle 8 heraus zunächst in den Axialschlitz 6 der Hülse 2b und sodann zu den ihnen zugeordneten Schleifringen 3 geführt, die im Axialschlitz 6 innen freiliegen. Der Buchsenring 2a ist mit der Hülse 2b formschlüssig verbunden. Zur formschlüssigen Verbindung greift ein am Buchsenring 2a angeformter, umlaufender Außenwulst 2c in eine entsprechende Innennut 2d der Hülse 2b ein (Fig. 1).The ends of the electrical conductors 4 are arranged in a tube 1 Protective cover 8 first in the axial slot 6 of the sleeve 2b and then to the assigned slip rings 3, which are exposed in the axial slot 6 inside. The bushing ring 2a is positively connected to the sleeve 2b. For positive Connection engages a circumferential outer bead formed on the socket ring 2a 2c into a corresponding inner groove 2d of the sleeve 2b (FIG. 1).

    Ein an der äußeren Mantelfläche der Endbuchse 5 angeformter Ringwulst 5a greift in eine innere Nut 2e der Hülse 2b ein (Fig. 1).An annular bead 5a formed on the outer lateral surface of the end bush 5 engages in an inner groove 2e of the sleeve 2b (Fig. 1).

    Durch den Eingriff des Außenwulstes 2c in die Innennut 2d und den Eingriff des Ringwulstes 5a in die Innennut 2d der Hülse 2b, sind der Buchsenring 2a und die Endbuchse 5 mit der Hülse 2b formschlüssig vereinigt. Auch die Verbindung der Hülse 2b mit dem Schlauch 1 ist infolge des Schraubeingriffes des Gewindeganges 7 in den Schlauch 1 formschlüssig, so daß die Verbindungen insgesamt rein formschlüssig, jedoch bei Bedarf wieder lösbar sind.By the engagement of the outer bead 2c in the inner groove 2d and the engagement of the annular bead 5a into the inner groove 2d of the sleeve 2b, are the sleeve ring 2a and the end sleeve 5 positively combined with the sleeve 2b. Also the connection of the sleeve 2b the hose 1 is due to the screw engagement of the thread 7 in the Hose 1 form-fitting, so that the connections overall purely form-fitting, however are detachable if necessary.

    Als weitere erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung ist in der Endbuchse 5 ein von ihrem hinteren Ende ausgehender und sich bis zum Wulstring 5a erstreckender Schlitz 5b (Fig. 1) vorgesehen. Die Flanken des Schlitzes 5b gehen in eine rohrartige Anformung 5d über, die zur Aufnahme des zugeordneten Endes der Schutzhülle 8 vorgesehen ist. Die Anformung 5d ist zum offenen Ende des Schlitzes 5b offen und am entgegengesetzten Ende geschlossen. Der Schlitz 5b ist in seiner Bestimmungslage vorzugsweise so ausgerichtet, daß er mit dem Axalschlitz 6 der Hülse 2b fluchtet. Auf diese Weise ergibt sich ein Veriegungspfad für die elektrischen Leiter 4, wie aus Fig. 1 ersichtlich.As a further embodiment of the invention is in the end bushing 5 from its rear End extending slot 5b extending to the bead ring 5a (Fig. 1) intended. The flanks of the slot 5b go into a tubular projection 5d over, which is provided for receiving the associated end of the protective cover 8. The projection 5d is open at the open end of the slot 5b and at the opposite Closed at the end. The slot 5b is preferred in its intended position aligned so that it is aligned with the axial slot 6 of the sleeve 2b. In this way there is a bending path for the electrical conductors 4, as can be seen from FIG. 1.

    Ferner besteht eine zweckmäßige Weiterbildung des Erfindungsgegenstandes darin, daß eine angeformte Gelenkstelle 2f die Hülse 2b in zwei gleiche Schalenhälften 2g teilt, deren freie Ränder die Flanken des Axialschlitzes 6 sind. Hierdurch ist die Hülse 2b, wie in Fig. 4 dargestellt, in aufgeklappter Form herzustellen, wofür eine einfache schieberfreie Form genügt. Um die Bestimmungsform der Hülse 2b zu erreichen, ist es lediglich erforderlich, die beiden Schalenhälften 2g um die Gelenkstelle 2f gegeneinander zu bewegen, bis sich die in Fig. 3 gezeigte Form ergibt.Furthermore, an expedient further development of the subject matter of the invention consists in that a molded joint 2f, the sleeve 2b in two identical shell halves 2g divides, the free edges of which are the flanks of the axial slot 6. This is the sleeve 2b, as shown in Fig. 4, in an unfolded form, for which a simple slide-free shape is sufficient. To achieve the intended shape of the sleeve 2b, it is only required, the two shell halves 2g against each other around the joint 2f to move until the shape shown in Fig. 3 results.
