Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Bodendüse für einen Staubsauger mit einer ersten Arbeitsstellung zum Saugen von breiten Bodenflächen und einer zweiten Arbeitsstellung zum Saugen von schmalen Bodenflächen. Während die erste Arbeitsstellung für die Reinigung großer, zusammenhängender Bodenflächen vorgesehen ist, können in der zweiten Arbeitsstellung auch schlecht zugängliche Zwischenräume und Ecken, beispielsweise zwischen Möbelstücken, zur Saugreinigung überfahren werden.The invention relates to a floor nozzle for a vacuum cleaner with a first working position for sucking wide floor surfaces and a second working position for sucking narrow floor surfaces. While the first working position is provided for cleaning large, contiguous floor surfaces, in the second working position, poorly accessible spaces and corners, for example between pieces of furniture, can be run over for suction cleaning.

Vor diesem Hintergrund liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Bodendüse für einen Staubsauger mit einer ersten Arbeitsstellung zum Saugen von breiten Bodenflächen und einer zweiten Arbeitsstellung zum Saugen von schmalen Bodenflächen anzugeben, die sowohl in der ersten Arbeitsstellung als auch in der zweiten Arbeitsstellung leicht zu handhaben ist.Against this background, the invention has for its object to provide a floor nozzle for a vacuum cleaner with a first working position for sucking wide floor surfaces and a second working position for sucking narrow floor surfaces, easy to handle both in the first working position and in the second working position is.
Lösung der Aufgabe und Gegenstand der Erfindung ist eine Bodendüse für einen Staubsauger mit einer ersten Arbeitsstellung zum Saugen von breiten Bodenflächen und einer zweiten Arbeitsstellung zum Saugen von schmalen Bodenflächen mit einem Saugkopf, der eine von zwei Breitseiten sowie zwei Schmalseiten begrenzte Grundfläche aufweist, wobei die Breitseiten bezogen auf die Arbeitsrichtung der Bodendüse in der ersten Arbeitsstellung in etwa in Querrichtung und die Schmalseiten etwa in Längsrichtung verlaufen, einem an dem Saugkopf angeschlossenen Dreh-/Kippgelenk mit einem Anschlussstutzen für ein Saugrohr oder ein Staubsaugergehäuse, zumindest einem im Bereich des Dreh-/Kippgelenks angeordneten Stützelement, wobei in der ersten Arbeitsstellung das Stützelement die über das Saugrohr oder das Staubsaugergehäuse beim Bewegen der Bodendüse eingeleiteten Vertikalkräfte aufnimmt und wobei in der zweiten Arbeitsstellung der Anschlussstutzen etwa senkrecht zu der Längsrichtung ausgerichtet ist und das Stützelement in Bezug auf die Unterseite des Saugkopfes angehoben ist und nicht zur Abstützung des Saugkopfes beiträgt. Als üblicherweise außerhalb der Grundfläche des Saugkopfes angeordnetes Stützelement ist vorzugsweise eine drehbare Walze vorgesehen. Im Rahmen der Erfindung können jedoch auch zur Aufnahme der beim Bewegen der Bodendüse eingeleiteten Vertikalkräfte zwei seitliche Laufrollen an dem Dreh-/Kippgelenk als Stützelemente angeordnet sein. Das Stützelement bzw. die Stützelemente erlauben bei dem Saugen von breiten Bodenflächen in der ersten Arbeitsstellung eine sehr leichte Handhabung, wobei durch die Rollbewegung der Walze bzw. der Laufrollen auch auf textilen Bodenbelägen nur geringe Schiebekräfte erforderlich sind.Solution to the problem and object of the invention is a floor nozzle for a vacuum cleaner with a first working position for sucking wide bottom surfaces and a second working position for sucking narrow bottom surfaces with a suction head having one of two broad sides and two narrow sides limited base, the broadsides relative to the working direction of the floor nozzle in the first working position approximately in the transverse direction and the narrow sides extend approximately in the longitudinal direction, connected to the suction head rotary / tilting joint with a connection piece for a suction pipe or a vacuum cleaner housing, at least one in the area of the rotary / tilting joint arranged supporting element, wherein in the first working position, the support member receives the introduced via the suction pipe or the vacuum cleaner housing when moving the floor nozzle vertical forces and wherein in the second working position, the connecting piece is oriented approximately perpendicular to the longitudinal direction and the supporting element is raised with respect to the underside of the suction head and does not contribute to the support of the suction head. As usually arranged outside the base of the suction head support member is preferably provided a rotatable roller. In the context of the invention, however, two lateral rollers may be arranged on the rotary / tilting joint as support elements for receiving the vertical forces introduced during movement of the floor nozzle. The support element or the support elements allow in the suction of wide bottom surfaces in the first working position a very easy handling, which are required by the rolling movement of the roller or rollers even on textile floor coverings only low pushing forces.
Wenn die Bodendüse in der zweiten Arbeitsstellung bei der Reinigung von engen Spalten und Zwischenräumen mit einer der Schmalseiten voran geführt wird, ist das Stützelement angehoben und trägt nicht zu einer Erhöhung der Schiebekräfte bei. Die Unterseite des Saugkopfes ist dabei zweckmäßigerweise als einfache Gleitsohle ohne Laufrollen ausgebildet.When the floor nozzle is guided in the second working position in the cleaning of narrow gaps and gaps with one of the narrow sides, the support member is raised and does not contribute to an increase in the pushing forces. The underside of the suction head is expediently designed as a simple sliding sole without rollers.
Im Rahmen einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass der Saugkopf über einen Saugkanal an ein Gelenkstück des Dreh-/Kippgelenks angeschlossen ist, wobei das Gelenkstück gegenüber dem Saugkanal um die Drehachse des Dreh-/Kippgelenks drehbar ist. Die Drehachse kann dabei beispielsweise in einer horizontalen Ebene liegen und in Bezug auf die erste Arbeitsrichtung in Längsrichtung verlaufen. Im Rahmen der beschriebenen Ausgestaltung kann die Kippachse des Dreh-/Kippgelenks durch eine gelenkige Verbindung des Gelenkstückes mit dem Anschlussstutzen gebildet sein.In the context of a preferred embodiment of the invention it is provided that the suction head is connected via a suction channel to a hinge piece of the rotary / tilting joint, wherein the hinge piece is rotatable relative to the suction channel about the axis of rotation of the rotary / tilting joint. The axis of rotation may, for example, lie in a horizontal plane and extend in the longitudinal direction with respect to the first working direction. In the context of the described embodiment, the tilting axis of the rotary / tilting joint can be formed by an articulated connection of the joint piece with the connecting piece.
Der Saugkanal kann entweder an den Saugkopf angeformt oder durch ein vorderes Kippgelenk mit dem Saugkopf verbunden sein. Durch das vordere Kippgelenk kann erreicht werden, dass in der ersten Arbeitsstellung der Saugkopf zur Optimierung der Saugreinigungswirkung bei Vorwärts- und Rückwärtsbewegungen unterschiedliche Winkelpositionen einnimmt. Des Weiteren kann durch das zusätzliche vordere Kippgelenk auf einem textilen Bodenbelag ein unterschiedlich starkes Einsinken des Stützelementes ausgeglichen werden, so dass der Saugkopf stets in der gewünschten Ausrichtung auf der zu reinigenden Bodenfläche aufliegt.The suction channel can either be formed on the suction head or connected by a front tilting joint with the suction head. Through the front tilt joint can be achieved that in the first working position of the suction head to optimize the Saugreinigungswirkung occupies different angular positions in forward and backward movements. Furthermore, a different degree of sinking of the support element can be compensated by the additional front tilt hinge on a textile floor covering, so that the suction head always rests in the desired orientation on the floor surface to be cleaned.
Wenn zur Abstützung des Dreh-/Kippgelenks eine Walze oder zwei Laufrollen vorgesehen sind, ist von Vorteil, wenn die Drehachse mit der Kippachse des Dreh-/Kippgelenks zusammenfällt, da im Rahmen einer solchen Ausgestaltung sämtliche beim Schieben der Bodendüse eingeleiteten Vertikalkräfte aufgenommen werden können. Die Kippachse und die Drehachse des Dreh-/Kippgelenks sind vorzugsweise senkrecht zueinander ausgerichtet, wobei die Drehachse bezogen auf die erste Arbeitsstellung in Längsrichtung ausgerichtet ist. Bei einer Mittelposition des Drehwinkels verläuft dann die Kippachse des Dreh-/Kippgelenks in Querrichtung. In dieser Position ist das Stützelement zweckmäßigerweise unterhalb der Drehachse angeordnet, so dass dieses beim Verdrehen des Dreh-/Kippgelenks von der zu reinigenden Bodenfläche abgehoben wird. Wenn die Kippachse mit einer Rotationsachse einer Walze oder von Laufrollen zusammenfällt, beträgt bei der Mittelposition des Drehwinkels der Abstand zwischen der Drehachse des Dreh-/Kippgelenkes und der Kippachse dieses Dreh-/Kippgelenkes in vertikaler Richtung vorzugsweise zwischen 20 mm 7und 60 mm, besonders bevorzugt zwischen 30 mm und 50 mm.If a roller or two rollers are provided for supporting the rotary / tilting joint, it is advantageous if the axis of rotation coincides with the tilting axis of the rotary / tilting joint, since in the context of such an embodiment all vertical forces introduced during the sliding of the floor nozzle can be accommodated. The tilting axis and the axis of rotation of the rotary / tilting joint are preferably aligned perpendicular to one another, wherein the axis of rotation is oriented in the longitudinal direction relative to the first working position. At a center position of the rotation angle then runs the tilting axis of the turn / tilt joint in the transverse direction. In this position, the support element is expediently arranged below the axis of rotation, so that this is lifted during rotation of the rotary / tilting joint of the floor surface to be cleaned. When the tilting axis coincides with a rotation axis of a roller or rollers, in the center position of the rotation angle, the distance between the rotation axis of the pivotal / tilting joint and the tilting axis of this tilting / tilting joint in the vertical direction is preferably between 20
In der ersten Arbeitsstellung zum Saugen von breiten Bodenflächen ist der Anschlussstutzen in Bezug auf die zu reinigende Bodenfläche schräg ausgerichtet. Bei einer üblichen Griffposition an einem Saugrohr oder an einem Staubsaugergehäuse liegt der Kippwinkel des Dreh-/Kippgelenkes bezogen auf eine horizontale Bodenfläche üblicherweise in einem Bereich zwischen 30° und 60°. In der ersten Arbeitsstellung kann die Bodendüse durch ein leichtes Verdrehen des Dreh-/Kippgelenks auch in einem Bogen geführt werden. Um die Bodendüse von der ersten Arbeitsstellung in die zweite Arbeitsstellung zu bewegen, wird der Anschlussstutzen zunächst aufgerichtet, wobei das Dreh-/Kippgelenk vorzugsweise bei einem maximalen Kippwinkel αmax einrastbar ist. Nachfolgend wird dann das Dreh-/Kippgelenk so weit um die Drehachse bewegt, dass die Bodendüse wie zuvor in der ersten Arbeitsstellung von einem Benutzer geführt werden kann, wobei jedoch der Saugkopf mit einer Schmalseite voran über die zu reinigende Bodenfläche gleitet. Besonders vorteilhaft ist dabei, wenn das Dreh-/Kippgelenk bezogen auf eine Mittelposition in einem Drehwinkelbereich zwischen βmin = -90° und βmax = +90°positionierbar ist. Im Rahmen einer solchen Ausgestaltung kann der Anschlussstutzen mit dem daran anschließenden Saugrohr oder Staubsaugergehäuse parallel zu den Breitseiten des Saugkopfes flach ausgerichtet werden, so dass auch niedrige Freiräume unter Möbelstücken, beispielsweise unter Schränken oder Tischen, unterfahren werden können.In the first working position for sucking wide floor surfaces, the connecting piece is inclined with respect to the floor surface to be cleaned. In a conventional grip position on a suction pipe or on a vacuum cleaner housing, the tilt angle of the turn / tilt joint with respect to a horizontal bottom surface is usually in a range between 30 ° and 60 °. In The first working position, the floor nozzle can be performed by a slight rotation of the rotary / tilting joint in an arc. In order to move the floor nozzle from the first working position to the second working position, the connecting piece is first erected, wherein the rotary / tilting joint is preferably latched α max at a maximum tilt angle. Subsequently, the rotary / tilting joint is then moved so far around the axis of rotation that the floor nozzle as previously in the first working position can be performed by a user, but the suction head slides with a narrow side ahead on the floor surface to be cleaned. It is particularly advantageous if the rotary / tilting joint relative to a center position in a rotation angle range between β min = -90 ° and β max = + 90 ° can be positioned. In the context of such an embodiment, the connecting piece with the adjoining suction pipe or vacuum cleaner housing can be aligned flat parallel to the broad sides of the suction head, so that even low free spaces under furniture, for example, under cabinets or tables, can be driven under.
Um eine weitgehend freie Ausgestaltung des Dreh-/Kippgelenks zu ermöglichen und den Anteil unerwünschter Falschluft zu minimieren, kann das Dreh-/Kippgelenk einen flexiblen Schlauch zur Durchführung der Saugluft aufweisen.In order to enable a largely free design of the rotary / tilting joint and to minimize the proportion of unwanted secondary air, the rotary / tilting joint can have a flexible hose for carrying out the suction air.
