Definitions

  • the invention relates to a Upright-type vacuum cleaner with an upper body with dust collecting container, with a ground unit, which is movable by a chassis on the surface to be cleaned, and with a motor fan arranged outside the upper body for generating a negative pressure acting on the surface to be cleaned, wherein between the upper body and bottom unit a tilting joint is arranged, are mounted by which upper body and bottom unit about a horizontal axis in use pivotally to each other and wherein between the upper body and bottom unit a rotary joint is arranged, which allows a change in direction of the moving ground unit by rotating the upper body.
  • the following describes three types of vacuum cleaner that differ in their construction and operation. As common features all have a motor-driven blower, a dust collection room and one or more adapted to the particular purpose tillage equipment.
  • the vacuum cleaner has a housing which is movable on rollers and / or skids on the ground to be processed.
  • the engine fan and the dust collector are arranged in the housing.
  • the soil treatment device - here called floor nozzle - is connected via a suction hose, possibly with an intermediate suction pipe with the dust collection chamber.
  • the housing is brought into the desired position during the suction process by pulling on the suction tube.
  • the motor fan and the dust collector are also arranged in a housing. From the housing extends on one side of a suction pipe, which connects a floor nozzle with the dust collector, and on the other hand, a handle with which the housing is maneuvered into the desired position.
  • An essential feature of an upright is a movable floor unit, which carries a torso with a large dust collector.
  • the two parts are pivotally mounted to each other and usually fixable in a parking position in which the upper body is approximately vertical when the ground unit is in the use position on a horizontal ground. In this position, the upright is automatic.
  • this locking is released and tilted the upper body by a certain angle in a working position.
  • the swivel angle depends on the one hand on the size of the user and on the other hand from the respective use.
  • a grip on the upper body is used to guide the entire device.
  • the engine fan may be located at various locations.
  • the invention provides the problem of improving a vacuum cleaner to the effect that the hinge between the upper body and ground unit is simple and yet can accommodate large bearing forces.
  • the rotary joint includes a bearing housing which rotatably surrounds a pipe section articulated on the ground unit and which is inserted into a receptacle on the upper body.
  • the receptacle receives the bearing housing in a positive and non-positive manner in the manner of a conical connection.
  • a connection is particularly suitable for absorbing forces in the longitudinal direction.
  • the pipe section surrounded by the bearing housing is surrounded by a metal ring whose outside diameter projects beyond the pipe section. This creates a robust and wear-free swivel joint. It is expedient if the bearing housing is formed in two parts.
  • the swivel joint can be used for air guidance.
  • the air line is designed as a coaxial line, no additional hoses or other air lines are required in the region of the rotary joint.
  • the bearing housing, receptacle and seals should be dimensioned such that the distance of the tube ends of the outer tube and the inner tube in the assembled state is greater than the width of the arranged between the tube ends portion of the seal. As a result, the seal remains free of bearing forces and thus largely wear-free.
  • a plug receptacle is arranged on the bearing housing, so that upon insertion of the bearing housing into the receptacle, a plug located in the plug receptacle comes into engagement with a plug housing arranged on the receptacle.
  • Upright vacuum cleaner shown in various views, hereinafter referred to as Upright 1, consists essentially of a bottom unit 2, an upper body 3 and a joint arranged therebetween, which will be described later.
  • the upright 1 can from an upright position (see FIGS. 1 to 3 ), in which he is latched and then stands free, after releasing the locking (see FIG. 7 ) into a tilted ( FIGS. 4 and 5 ) and even in a fully extended position ( FIG. 6 ) to be brought.
  • ground unit 2 and upper body 3 are a horizontal axis X in use (see FIG FIG. 5 ) mounted to each other pivotally.
  • the joint which allows the pivoting movement, is referred to below as a tilting joint.
  • the upright in the tilted position, as well as in FIG. 5 shown rotated about an axis Y. By rotating the upper body 3 by means of the appliance handle 4 about this axis and simultaneously pushing or pulling the upright, the user can control the floor unit 2 around curves.
  • the corresponding joint is referred to in the text as a hinge.

  • the line 106 which is formed by the left fork end 44, encloses the inner tube 107 in the fork web 53 and is guided as an outer ring 108 in the upper body 3. This is expedient because the transported air is already cleaned and therefore can be passed through this area with a smaller flow cross-section.
  • FIGS. 12 to 16 show the transition region from the fork 40 to the upper body 3 in different representations. It goes without saying that the connection between the fork web 53 on the upper shell 41 and the rear wall 67 takes place only when the two assemblies ground unit 2 and upper body 3 are completely assembled.

  • FIG. 13 shows the upper shell 41 - mentally this is to supplement the other components of the floor unit 2 - after the completion of these assembly steps. Due to its dimensions, the bearing housing 111 can be rotated around the outer ring 106 and the metal ring 98 around, thus resulting in a rotation axis Y, which in the FIGS. 12 to 16 is shown as dashed line 112.
  • the two inner tubes 107 and 113 and also the two outer rings 108 and 114 of the Koaxial effets sections 66 and 87 are connected to each other via the seal 101 having H-shaped cross sections in both areas.
  • the above-described storage is defined so that the distance between the ends of the outer rings 108 and 114 and the inner tubes 107 and 113 in the mounted state is greater than the width of the arranged between the tube ends webs 118 of the H-seal 101.
  • no bearing forces act on the seal 101. Therefore, the two sections 66 and 87 can be rotated freely against each other, there is only a slight resistance by the contact forces of the sealing walls 119.
