Description

Drahtlose Fernbetätigungseinrichtung für einen StaubsaugerWireless remote control device for a vacuum cleaner
Die Erfindung betrifft eine drahtlose Fernbetätigungseinrichtung für einen Staubsauger, die ein am Handgriff des mit dem Staubsauger verbundenen Saugschlauches oder an dem mit dem Saugschlauch gekoppelten Saugrohr angebrachtes, mit Steuertasten versehenes Sendegerät aufweist, dessen Steuersignale über einen im oder am Staubsaugergehäuse angeordneten Empfänger auf den Steuerkreis des Gebläsemotors des Staubsaugers einwirken.The invention relates to a wireless remote control device for a vacuum cleaner, which has a control device attached to the handle of the suction hose connected to the vacuum cleaner or to the suction pipe coupled to the suction pipe, the control signals of which are arranged in or on the vacuum cleaner housing on the control circuit of the receiver Act the blower motor of the vacuum cleaner.
Eine solche Fernbetätigungseinrichtung ist durch das DE-U-78 13 344 bekannt. Bei dieser bekannten Fernbetätigungseinrichtung ist ein Ultraschallsender fest in dem mit dem Saugschlauch des Staubsaugers verbundenen Handgriff eingebaut. Dies führt zu einem hohem Fertigungsaufwand, da derartige Schläuche gesondert gegenüber den normalen, nicht mit einem Ultraschailsender versehenen Saugschläuchen hergestellt werden müssen. Außerdem muß bei einem Defekt am Saugschlauch, der Saugschlauch einschließlich des Ultraschallsenders ersetzt werden.Such a remote control device is known from DE-U-78 13 344. In this known remote control device, an ultrasonic transmitter is permanently installed in the handle connected to the suction hose of the vacuum cleaner. This leads to a high manufacturing outlay, since such hoses have to be manufactured separately from the normal suction hoses not provided with an ultrasound transmitter. In addition, if there is a defect in the suction hose, the suction hose including the ultrasound transmitter must be replaced.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde eine drahtlose Fernbetätigungseinrichtung der eingangs beschriebenen Art so weiterzubilden, daß die vorgenannten Nachteile vermieden werden.The invention has for its object to develop a wireless remote control device of the type described above so that the aforementioned disadvantages are avoided.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe gelingt nach der Erfindung dadurch, daß das Sendegerät lösbar am Handgriff oder am Saugrohr angeordnet ist. Damit ist eine getrennte Fertigung von Saugschlauch und Sendegerät möglich. Das Sendegerät kann bei entsprechender Ausrüstung des Staubsaugers mit einem Empfänger als gesondertes Teil beigefügt werden. Bei einem Defekt am Saugschlauch braucht lediglich der Saugschlauch ersetzt zu werden, das Sendegerät kann dagegen weiterverwendet werden. Ein einfaches Anbringen des Sendegerätes am Handgriff bzw. am Saugrohr ergibt sich dadurch, daß am Gehäuse des Sendegerätes zwei tangential über die Außenkontur des Handgriffes bzw. des Saugrohres aufsteckbare Haltearme vorgesehen sind.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the transmitter is detachably arranged on the handle or on the suction pipe. This enables separate production of the suction hose and transmitter. The transmitter can be attached as a separate part if the vacuum cleaner is equipped with a receiver. If the suction hose is defective, only the suction hose needs to be replaced, however, the transmitter can continue to be used. A simple attachment of the transmitter on the handle or on the suction tube results from the fact that two holding arms are provided on the housing of the transmitter, tangentially via the outer contour of the handle or the suction tube.
Ein stabiler Halt des Sendegerätes wird dadurch erreicht, daß sich die Haltearme in tangentialer Richtung über die Mittenachse des Handgriffes bzw. des Saugrohres hinaus erstrecken und daß der Abstand zwischen den freien Enden der Haltearme kleiner als der Außendurchmesser des Handgriffes bzw. des Saugrohres an der Aufsteckstel- le des Sendegerätes bemessen ist.A stable hold of the transmitter is achieved in that the holding arms extend in the tangential direction beyond the center axis of the handle or the suction pipe and that the distance between the free ends of the holding arms is smaller than the outer diameter of the handle or the suction pipe on the plug-on - le of the transmitter is dimensioned.
Dadurch, daß der Handgriff bzw. das Saugrohr zumindest an der Aufsteckstelle des Sendegerätes eine von der Kreisform abweichende Außenkontur besitzen, wird das Sendegerät gegen Verdrehen gesichert.Characterized in that the handle or the suction tube have an outer contour deviating from the circular shape at least at the attachment point of the transmitter, the transmitter is secured against twisting.
Vorteilhaft ist es ferner, daß das Sendegerät durch eine Schnappverbindung gegen axiales Verrutschen am Handgriff gesichert ist. Eine solche Schnappverbindung läßt sich auf konstruktiv einfache Weise dadurch verwirklichen, daß am Gehäuse des Sendegerätes eine Rastkante vorgesehen ist, die mit einer am Außenumfang des Hand- griffes bzw. des Saugrohres ausgebildeten Einkerbung verrastbar ist.It is also advantageous that the transmitter is secured by a snap connection against axial slipping on the handle. Such a snap connection can be implemented in a structurally simple manner in that a latching edge is provided on the housing of the transmitter, which can be latched with a notch formed on the outer circumference of the handle or the suction pipe.
Anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispieles wird die Erfindung nachfolgend noch näher beschrieben.The invention is described in more detail below using an exemplary embodiment shown in the drawing.
Es zeigt:It shows:
FIG 1 in perspektivischer Darstellung ein am Handgriff eines Saugschlauches angeordnetes Sendegerät,1 shows a perspective view of a transmitter arranged on the handle of a suction hose,
FIG 2 ein Sendegerät in Seitenansicht und2 shows a transmitter in side view and
FIG 3 einen Detailschnitt eines Handgriffes im Bereich der Schnappverbindung mit dem Sendegerät.3 shows a detail section of a handle in the area of the snap connection with the transmitter.
Mit 1 ist ein Sendegerät bezeichnet, das an seiner dem Benutzer des Staubsaugers zugewandten Oberseite 2 mit Steuertasten 3 versehen ist. Durch diese Steuertasten 3 wird ein Infrarotsender 4 betätigt, der daraufhin Steuersignale ausstrahlt, die von einem im oder am Gehäuse, eines in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellten Staubsaugers, angeordneten Empfänger empfangen werden. Der Empfänger wirkt dann entsprechend der empfangenen Steuersignale auf den Steuerkreis des Gebläsemotors ein.1 with a transmitter is designated, which is provided on its top 2 facing the user of the vacuum cleaner with control buttons 3. With these control buttons 3 an infrared transmitter 4 is actuated, which then emits control signals which are received by a receiver arranged in or on the housing, a vacuum cleaner not shown in the drawing. The receiver then acts on the control circuit of the blower motor in accordance with the control signals received.
Das Gehäuse des Sendegerätes 1 weist zwei Haltearme 5 auf, mit denen es in tan- gentialer Richtung über die Außenkontur eines mit einem Saugschlauch 6 verbundenen Handgriffes 7 aufgesteckt werden kann. Die freie Länge 8 der Haltearme 5 ist so gewählt, daß sich die Haltearme 5 im aufgesteckten Zustand über die Mittenachse 9 des Handgriffes 7 erstrecken. Der Abstand zwischen den freien Enden 10 der einander gegenüberliegenden Haltearme 5 ist zumindest etwas kleiner als der Außendurchmesser des Handgriffes 5 an der Aufsteckstelle des Sendegerätes 1.The housing of the transmitter 1 has two holding arms 5 with which it can be plugged in the tangential direction over the outer contour of a handle 7 connected to a suction hose 6. The free length 8 of the holding arms 5 is chosen so that the holding arms 5 extend over the central axis 9 of the handle 7 in the attached state. The distance between the free ends 10 of the mutually opposite holding arms 5 is at least somewhat smaller than the outer diameter of the handle 5 at the attachment point of the transmitting device 1.
Auf Grund ihrer Eigenelastizität lassen sich die Haltearme 5 trotz des gegenüber dem Außendurchmesser des Handgriffes 7 kleineren Abstandes zwischen ihren freien Enden 10 ohne weiteres auf den Handgriff 7 aufschieben. Dabei werden die Haltearme 7 etwas gespannt und sorgen somit für einen festen Sitz des Sendegerätes 1 auf dem Außenumfang des Handgriffes 7.Because of their inherent elasticity, the holding arms 5 can be easily pushed onto the handle 7 despite the smaller distance between their free ends 10 compared to the outer diameter of the handle 7. The holding arms 7 are somewhat tensioned and thus ensure that the transmitting device 1 is firmly seated on the outer circumference of the handle 7.
Der Handgriff 7 weist ferner eine von der Kreisform abweichende leicht elliptische Außenkontur auf. Hierdurch wird das aufgesteckte Sendegerät 1 gegen Verdrehen gesichert.The handle 7 also has a slightly elliptical outer contour that deviates from the circular shape. As a result, the attached transmitter 1 is secured against rotation.
Um ein Verrutschen des Sendegerätes 1 in Achsrichtung des Handgriffes 7 zu vermei- den, ist an einer entsprechenden Stelle des Handgriffes 7 ein nach radial außen weisender Längssteg 11 angeformt, an dem eine Einkerbung 12 ausgebildet ist. In diese Einkerbung 12 greift eine an der Voderwand 13 des Sendegerätes 1 vorgesehene Rastkante 14 ein. Damit ist das Sendegerät 1 auch in Längsrichtung des Handgriffes 7 festgelegt. In order to prevent the transmitter 1 from slipping in the axial direction of the handle 7, a longitudinal web 11 pointing radially outwards is formed on a corresponding point on the handle 7, on which a notch 12 is formed. A notched edge 14 provided on the front wall 13 of the transmitting device 1 engages in this notch 12. The transmitter 1 is thus also fixed in the longitudinal direction of the handle 7.
