Abstract

The invention relates to a brush roller (A) of a floor cleaning device with a rotating brush roller as a cylindrical rotating element. The brush roller (A) is arranged as a hollow body in a brush housing via bearings by means of inserted outer end pieces (4, 5). A receiving shaft (2) which runs in the shape of a spiral and comprises an outer passage region for receiving and retaining a continuous brush strip (3) is arranged in the casing region of the hollow body. A central segment (1) is designed as a self-supporting hollow body made of plastic. The outer end pieces (4, 5) engage into said hollow body by means of a formfitting connection, and the end pieces (4, 5) at least partly continue the receiving shaft (2).

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Bürstenwalze eines Bodenpflegegerätes, insbesondere Teppichreinigungsgerät, in Form eines Bürststaubsaugers oder Bürstvorsatzes mit mindestens einer rotierenden Bürstenwalze als zylindrisches Rotationselement, wobei die Bürstenwalze durch außenliegende Endstücke über Lager in einem Bürstengehäuse angeordnet ist und die Bürstenwalze als Hohlkörper einen spiralförmig verlaufenden Aufnahmeschacht mit einem außenliegenden Durchtrittsbereich zur Aufnahme und Halterung eines durchgehenden Bürstenstreifens sowie einer stirnseitigen Öffnung zur Zuführung und Entnahme aufweist . The invention relates to a brush roller of a floor care device, in particular carpet cleaning device, in the form of a Bürststaubsaugers or Bürstvorsatzes with at least one rotating brush roller as a cylindrical rotary member, wherein the brush roller is arranged by outer end pieces via bearings in a brush housing and the brush roller as a hollow body a helically extending receiving shaft Having an outer passage area for receiving and holding a continuous brush strip and an end opening for feeding and removal.
Bürstenwalzen dieser Art sind in unterschiedlichen Ausbildungen bekannt, wobei diese entweder fest beborstet und nur als Ganzes austauschbar sind oder aus mehreren Teilen ausgeführt sind und einen spiralförmigen Aufnahmeschacht für einenBrush rollers of this type are known in different configurations, these are either bristled firmly and only as a whole are interchangeable or made of several parts and a spiral receiving shaft for a
Bürstenstreifen aufweisen. Bei einer Ausbildung mit einem spiralförmigen Aufnahmeschacht sind die Bürstenwalzen üblicherweise mittig geteilt und besitzen für den Bürstenstreifen eine stabilisierende Stahlrohrseite mit eingesetzten Wellenenden zur Zuordnung mit axial außerhalb angeordneten Lagern. Da auf die Bürstenwalze relativ große Kräfte einwirken, bestehen Schwierigkeiten aus werkzeugtechnischen Gründen Bürstenwalzen dieser Art mit der erforderlichen Biegesteifigkeit und Formhaltigkeit wirtschaftlich als durchgehende Bürstenwalze herzustellen. Have brush strip. In an embodiment with a spiral receiving shaft, the brush rollers are usually divided in the middle and have for the brush strip a stabilizing steel tube side with inserted shaft ends for assignment to axially outboard bearings. Since act on the brush roller relatively large forces, there are difficulties for tooling reasons brush rollers of this type with the required bending stiffness and shape retention economically to produce as a continuous brush roller.
Es ist bereits aus der DE 917 498 B eine gattungsgemäße Anordnung mit einer Bürstenwalze bekannt. Die Walze ist dabei an jedem Ende mit einer Lagereinrichtung versehen, durch welche sie über eine durchgehende zentrale Achse über Flansche mitdrehend getragen wird. Diese Ausbildung ist relativ aufwendig und auch für den Laien zum Auswechseln des Bürstenstreifens nicht handhabbar . It is already known from DE 917 498 B a generic arrangement with a brush roller. The roller is provided at each end with a bearing means by which it is carried along on a continuous central axis via flanges mitdrehend. This training is relatively expensive and not manageable for the layman to replace the brush strip.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen Bürstenwalzenkörper für eine gattungsgemäßeThe object of the invention is a brush roller body for a generic
Bürstenwalze mit einem spiralförmig angeordneten Aufnahmeschacht für einen Bürststreifen ohne zusätzliche stabilisierende Bauteile zu schaffen, der eine formstabile Anordnung verbindungssteif und biegesteif ermöglicht und eine leichte Bauausführung mit einer durchgehenden Bürstenstreifenaufnähme gewährleistet . To provide a brush roller with a spirally arranged receiving slot for a brushing strip without additional stabilizing components, which allows a dimensionally stable arrangement connection stiff and rigid and ensures easy construction with a continuous Bürstenstreifenaufnähme.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß dadurch, dass ein Mittelsegment und die beiden Endstücke die Bürstenwalze bilden und das Mittelsegment mindestens 50 % der Gesamtlänge der Bürstenwalze aufweist, wobei das Mittelsegment als selbsttragender Hohlkörper aus Kunststoff gebildet ist und mindestens einen sich spiralförmig entlang seiner Mantelfläche erstreckenden Aufnahmeschacht aufweist und in den Hohlkörper des Mittelsegments die Endstücke mit einer formschlüssigen Verbindung eingreifen und die Endstücke Wellenenden zur Aufnahme in korrespondieren Lagern im Außenbereich aufweisen sowie die verbundenen Endstücke mindestens teilweise den Aufnahmeschacht für den Bürstenstreifen fortsetzen. The solution of this object is achieved according to the invention in that a middle segment and the two end pieces form the brush roller and the middle segment has at least 50% of the total length of the brush roller, wherein the middle segment is formed as a self-supporting hollow body made of plastic and at least one spirally extending along its lateral surface receiving shaft and in the hollow body of the middle segment, the end pieces engage with a positive connection and the end pieces Have shaft ends for receiving in corresponding bearings in the outer area and the connected end pieces at least partially continue the receiving slot for the brush strip.
Hierdurch wird ermöglicht, einen selbsttragenden Hohlkörper aus Kunststoff einzusetzen und auch den Bürstenstreifen über die eingesetzten Endstücke zu führen . This makes it possible to use a self-supporting hollow body made of plastic and also to guide the brush strip over the inserted end pieces.
Es ist in vorteilhafter Weise vorgesehen, dass das Mittelsegment als selbsttragender Hohlkörper durch über Rippen beanstandete konzentrische Rohrkörper gebildet und zwischen den Rohrkörpern der Aufnahmeschacht mit seinem außenliegenden Durchtrittsbereich angeordnet ist . It is advantageously provided that the middle segment is formed as a self-supporting hollow body by means of contested over ribs concentric tubular body and disposed between the tubular bodies of the receiving shaft with its outer passage area.
Eine weitere Verbesserung wird dadurch geschaffen, dass die Endstücke Wellenenden zur Aufnahme in korrespondierenden Lagern im Außenbereich des Bürstengehäuses aufweisen. A further improvement is achieved in that the end pieces have shaft ends for receiving in corresponding bearings in the outer region of the brush housing.
Ferner ist vorgesehen, dass die Endstücke Abweiserelemente als Fadenabweiser in dem den Mittelsegment abgewandten Bereich aufweisen. It is further provided that the end pieces have deflector elements as thread deflectors in the region remote from the middle segment.
Für eine gute Funktionsfähigkeit ist vorgesehen, dass die Endstücke im Hohlkörper des Mittelsegments über Elemente aus elastischem Material, wie O-Ringe, radial kraft- und formschlüssig einsetzbar sind. Zur Einstellung einer einwandfreien Rotation der Bürstenwalze ist vorgesehen, dass die Endstücke an ihren außenliegenden Stirnseiten Aufnahmeöffnungen für Wuchtgewichte aufweisen. For a good operability is provided that the end pieces in the hollow body of the central segment via elements of elastic material, such as O-rings, radially non-positively and positively inserted. To set a proper rotation of the brush roller is provided that the end pieces have on their outer end faces receiving openings for balancing weights.
