Definitions
- the invention relates to a vacuum cleaner Upright type according to the preamble of claim 1.
- 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 handle on the upper body is used to guide the entire device.
- the engine fan can be arranged in different places be.
- a vacuum cleaner Upright type with the features of the preamble of claim 1 known.
- a cover is arranged as a fixed part of the ground unit in the joint area. Although the cover hides the interior of the ground unit even when swiveling the upper body, but this creates a gap between the upper body and cover especially at a larger pivot angle. This can lead to pinching of fingers.
- the invention thus raises the problem of avoiding the emergence of open spaces by relative movements between the upper body and ground unit in a vacuum cleaner of the type mentioned.
- a front cover can cover a free space in the upper area of the floor unit.
