Description

TECHNISCHES GEBIETTECHNICAL AREA

Die Anmeldung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Ablage und Halterung eines Staubsaugerrohrs eines Staubsaugersystems, wobei die Vorrichtung ein Aufnahmeelement mit einem Aufnahmebereich aufweist, wobei das Aufnahmeelement an einer Seite der Vorrichtung angeordnet ist, und der Aufnahmebereich der Aufnahme und Ablage des Staubsaugerrohrs dient.The application relates to a device for depositing and holding a vacuum cleaner tube of a vacuum cleaner system, the device having a receiving element with a receiving area, the receiving element being arranged on one side of the device, and the receiving area serving to receive and deposit the vacuum cleaner tube.

STAND DER TECHNIKSTATE OF THE ART

Es sind zahlreiche technische Möglichkeiten bekannt, das Staubsaugerrohr eines Staubsaugers vornehmlich außerhalb der Benutzungszeiten zu halten und abzulegen. So kann ein Staubsaugerrohr beispielsweise mit einem Haken ausgestattet sein, der mit einem entsprechenden am Staubsaugergehäuse angeordneten komplementären Bauteil in Eingriff gebracht werden kann.There are numerous technical possibilities known to hold the vacuum cleaner tube of a vacuum cleaner primarily outside of the hours of use and to put it down. For example, a vacuum cleaner tube can be equipped with a hook which can be brought into engagement with a corresponding complementary component arranged on the vacuum cleaner housing.

Aus der GB 2 341 539 ist ein Vakuumstaubsauger bekannt, der unter anderem eine Haltevorrichtung für eine Bodenreinigungsvorrichtung umfasst.From the GB 2,341,539 a vacuum vacuum cleaner is known which includes, inter alia, a holding device for a floor cleaning device.

Die EP 2 989 951 A1 beschreibt unter anderem eine Stützvorrichtung für einen Staubsauger an der Staubsaugerzubehör angeordnet werden kann.The EP 2 989 951 A1 describes, inter alia, a support device for a vacuum cleaner on which vacuum cleaner accessories can be arranged.

Zumeist sind die bekannten Möglichkeiten und Methoden aber in der Handhabung kompliziert und unpraktisch mit der Folge, dass das Staubsaugerrohr nicht sicher gehalten wird, das Anbringen präzise gehandhabt werden muss, oder die Haltevorrichtung vom Benutzer sogar aus Gründen der aufwändigen und schwierigen Verwendung überhaupt nicht verwendet wird.In most cases, however, the known possibilities and methods are complicated and impractical to use, with the result that the vacuum cleaner pipe is not held securely, the attachment has to be handled precisely, or the holding device is not used at all by the user because it is complex and difficult to use .

AUFGABE DER ERFINDUNGOBJECT OF THE INVENTION

Der Erfindung liegt von daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung bereitzustellen, die eine in der Bedienung und Handhabung einfache Vorrichtung zur sicheren Ablage und Halterung eines Staubsaugerrohrs aufweist.The invention is therefore based on the object of providing a device which has a device that is simple to operate and handle for securely depositing and holding a vacuum cleaner tube.

TECHNISCHE LÖSUNGTECHNICAL SOLUTION

Die Aufgabe wird durch eine Vorrichtung nach Anspruch 1 gelöst. Die Vorrichtung weist zur Ablage und Halterung eines Staubsaugerrohrs eines Staubsaugersystems ein Aufnahmeelement mit einem Aufnahmebereich auf, wobei der Aufnahmebereich an einer Seite der Vorrichtung angeordnet ist und der Aufnahmebereich der Aufnahme und Ablage des Staubsaugerrohrs dient, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Aufnahmeelement ein Element zur Fixierung des Staubsaugerrohrs in einer Parkposition aufweist.The object is achieved by a device according to claim 1. The device has a receiving element with a receiving area for storing and holding a vacuum cleaner tube of a vacuum cleaner system, the receiving area being arranged on one side of the device and the receiving area serving to receive and deposit the vacuum cleaner tube, characterized in that the receiving element is an element for fixing the Having vacuum cleaner tube in a parked position.

Die Vorrichtung kann dabei die unterschiedlichsten Formen haben und aus den verschiedensten Materialien, z.B. Kunststoff, Metall, etc., bestehen.The device can have the most varied of shapes and consist of the most varied of materials, e.g. plastic, metal, etc.

Das Auflageelement nimmt im Aufnahmebereich zum einen das Staubsaugerrohr auf und ist daneben in der Lage, das aufgenommene Rohr in einer Parkposition, beispielsweise in Zeiten des Nichtbetriebs oder in Betriebspausen zu halten. Der Aufnahmebereich befindet sich vorzugsweise an, bzw. über einer, beispielsweise schalenartig geformten Wand des Aufnahmeelements. Die Wand kann dabei eine von außen zugängliche Auflagefläche bilden.On the one hand, the support element receives the vacuum cleaner pipe in the receiving area and is also able to hold the received pipe in a parking position, for example during periods of non-operation or during breaks in operation. The receiving area is preferably located on or above a, for example, shell-like shaped wall of the receiving element. The wall can form a support surface that is accessible from the outside.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausführung der Erfindung ist das Element der Fixierung wenigstens ein Magnet.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the element of the fixation is at least one magnet.

In der Regel bestehen Staubsaugerrohre aus Metall, bzw. aus einem Material, das durch magnetische Anziehungskräfte beeinflusst wird. Das Fixierelement in Form eines Magneten ist in der Lage, das in dem Aufnahmereich eingebrachte Staubsaugerrohr anzuziehen und zu fixieren. Die Lage des Magneten kann auf diese Weise den konkreten Bereich des Aufnahmeelements bestimmen, in dem das Staubsaugerrohr fixiert werden soll. Durch Verwendung eines Magneten sind Haltemittel, wie z.B. eine Klemm-oder Klippvorrichtung nicht erforderlich, was die Handhabung erheblich vereinfacht, da der Bediener das Staubsaugerrohr lediglich in den Aufnahmebereich einbringen, bzw. einlegen muss und der Magnet im Anschluss das Staubsaugerrohr anzieht und festhält. Der Magnet kann (z.B. von außen unzugänglich) hinter der Wand des Aufnahmeelements auf der dem Aufnahmebereich gegenüber liegenden Seite angeordnet sein.As a rule, vacuum cleaner tubes are made of metal or a material that is influenced by magnetic forces. The fixing element in the form of a magnet is able to attract and fix the vacuum cleaner tube introduced into the receiving area. In this way, the position of the magnet can determine the specific area of the receiving element in which the vacuum cleaner pipe is to be fixed. By using a magnet, holding means, such as a clamping or clip device, are not required, which considerably simplifies handling, since the operator only has to bring or insert the vacuum cleaner tube into the receiving area and the magnet then attracts and holds the vacuum cleaner tube. The magnet can be arranged (e.g. inaccessible from the outside) behind the wall of the receiving element on the side opposite the receiving area.

Daneben wird durch das Element der Fixierung auch die Selbstjustierung des Staubsaugerrohrs in der Parkposition erzeugt. Durch die Anordnung des oder der Magneten im Aufnahmeelement ist infolge der gleichbleibenden magnetischen Anziehungskräfte die Parkposition des Staubsaugerrohrs bestimmt. Ein ein- bzw. angebrachtes Rohr wird somit immer in die gleiche Parkposition verbracht.In addition, the self-adjustment of the vacuum cleaner tube in the parking position is also generated by the element of fixation. By arranging the magnet or magnets in the receiving element, the parking position of the vacuum cleaner tube is determined due to the constant magnetic attractive forces. An inserted or attached pipe is therefore always brought into the same parking position.

Bevorzugt ist wenigstens ein Magnet zentral im Aufnahmeelement angeordnet. Dadurch wird die zentrale Anziehung des Staubsaugerrohrs in die gewünschte Parkposition bewirkt und in der Folge eine zentrale Halterung des Staubsaugerrohrs bezweckt.At least one magnet is preferably arranged centrally in the receiving element. This brings about the central attraction of the vacuum cleaner tube into the desired parking position and, as a result, the aim is to hold the vacuum cleaner tube centrally.

In einer weiteren Ausführung sind wenigstens zwei weitere Magneten zum zentral angeordneten Magneten im Aufnahmeelement ausgerichtet. Dadurch kann zum einen die Wirkung des zentralen Magneten unterstützt werden, zum anderen kann durch eine konkrete Anordnung der zusätzlichen Magneten eine Lenkung und Selbstjustierung zum zentralen Magneten bewirkt werden. Dies bringt den Vorteil, dass der Aufnahmebereich breiter ausgelegt werden kann und das Rohr in jedem Fall zum zentralen Magneten verbracht und gehalten wird. Außerdem ist dadurch gewährleistet, dass der Bediener das abzulegende Rohr nicht punktgenau in die zentrale Position des Aufnahmebereichs einbringen muss.In a further embodiment, at least two further magnets are aligned with the centrally arranged magnet in the receiving element. In this way, on the one hand, the effect of the central magnet can be supported, and, on the other hand, steering and self-adjustment to the central magnet can be brought about by a specific arrangement of the additional magnets. This has the advantage that the receiving area can be made wider and the pipe is brought to the central magnet and held in any case. In addition, this ensures that the operator does not have to bring the pipe to be deposited into the central position of the receiving area with pinpoint accuracy.

Bevorzugt ist der Aufnahmebereich an die Form des Staubsaugerrohrs angepasst. Die Form des Aufnahmebereichs wird in der Regel im Einklang mit der Rohrform ein (im Querschnitt) zylindrisch runder Flächenabschnitt sein, andere Formen sind aber denkbar. Durch die Anpassung ist zum einen das Einbringen in den Aufnahmebereich erleichtert. Zum anderen wird die Halterung durch die an das Rohr angepasste Form unterstützt und stabilisiert.The receiving area is preferably adapted to the shape of the vacuum cleaner tube. The shape of the receiving area will generally be a cylindrical (in cross-section) round surface section in accordance with the tube shape, but other shapes are conceivable. On the one hand, the adaptation facilitates introduction into the receiving area. On the other hand, the bracket is supported and stabilized by the shape adapted to the pipe.

Besonders bevorzugt ist der Aufnahmebereich konkav gekrümmt und weist die Form eines Teilzylinders mit einem Kreisabschnitt mit dem Radius R auf. Die zylindrische Form bewirkt eine optimale Anpassung und Stabilisierung des aufgenommenen Staubsaugerrohrs.The receiving area is particularly preferably curved in a concave manner and has the shape of a partial cylinder with a segment of a circle with the radius R. The cylindrical shape ensures optimal adaptation and stabilization of the vacuum cleaner tube.

Der Radius R des Kreisabschnitts des Aufnahmebereichs ist insbesondere größer als der Radius des Staubsaugerrohrs. Damit ist die Aufnahme des Rohrs erleichtert, da das Rohr nur lose in den Aufnahmebereich eingebracht werden muss. In vorteilhafter Weise ist der Radius R doppelt so groß wie der Radius des Staubsaugerrohrs oder mehr als doppelt so groß.The radius R of the circular segment of the receiving area is in particular greater than the radius of the vacuum cleaner tube. This makes it easier to pick up the pipe, since the pipe is only loosely in the Recording area must be introduced. Advantageously, the radius R is twice as large as the radius of the vacuum cleaner pipe or more than twice as large.

In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführung ist die Vorrichtung als Griff ausgebildet. Dieser kann auf der Oberseite oder an der Seite des Staubsaugers befestigt sein.In a further advantageous embodiment, the device is designed as a handle. This can be attached to the top or the side of the vacuum cleaner.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausführung ist der Griff gummiert.In an advantageous embodiment, the handle is rubberized.

Dadurch wird eine komfortable und sichere Handhabung erzielt, da zum einen infolge der Anpassungsmöglichkeit des gummierten Griffs der Tragekomfort erleichtert wird und zum anderen der Griff rutschfester und somit sicherer gestaltet ist.As a result, comfortable and safe handling is achieved because, on the one hand, the possibility of adapting the rubberized handle makes it easier to carry and, on the other hand, the handle is designed to be more slip-proof and therefore safer.

Die Aufgabe wird auch gelöst durch einen Staubsauger, umfassend eine Vorrichtung wie oben beschrieben, wobei die Vorrichtung an einem Gehäuse des Staubsaugers angeordnet ist.The object is also achieved by a vacuum cleaner comprising a device as described above, the device being arranged on a housing of the vacuum cleaner.

In vorteilhafter Weise ist die Vorrichtung auf der Oberseite des Staubsaugers befestigt, um einerseits das Ablegen des Staubsaugerrohrs und andererseits den Transport des Staubsaugers zu erleichtern. Denkbar sind hierbei eine Vielzahl von Befestigungsarten, wie Verschraubung, Verklebung etc., dauerhaft oder vorübergehend. Die Vorrichtung kann aber auch an der Seite des Staubsaugers befestigt sein, z.B. wenn der Staubsauger nach oben geöffnet werden muss.Advantageously, the device is attached to the top of the vacuum cleaner, on the one hand to put down the vacuum cleaner pipe and on the other hand to facilitate the transport of the vacuum cleaner. A large number of types of fastening, such as screwing, bonding, etc., permanent or temporary, are conceivable here. The device can also be attached to the side of the vacuum cleaner, e.g. if the vacuum cleaner has to be opened upwards.

BESCHREIBUNG BEVORZUGTER AUSFÜHRUNGSBEISPIELEDESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Nachfolgend werden bevorzugte Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung beschrieben.Preferred exemplary embodiments of the invention are described below.

Figur 1 zeigt hierbei die erfindungsgemäße Halterung 1 in einer perspektivischen Ansicht. Das Aufnahmeelement 11 hat einen Aufnahmebereich 111, der konkav in Form eines Teilzylinders mit dem Radius R geformt ist. Die konkave Form des Aufnahmebereichs 111 ist für die Aufnahme des Staubsaugerrohrs (nicht dargestellt) vorgesehen. In der Mitte des Aufnahmebereichs 111 befindet sich ein Element in Form eines Magneten zur Fixierung des Staubsauberrohrs. Der Radius R ist größer als der Radius des Staubsaugerrohrs. Dadurch wird bezweckt, dass das Staubsaugerrohr einfach in den Aufnahmebereich 111 eingebracht werden kann und im Anschluss infolge der magnetischen Anziehung zur Mitte M gezogen und fixiert wird. Figure 1 shows the holder 1 according to the invention in a perspective view. The receiving element 11 has a receiving area 111 which is concave in the form of a partial cylinder with the radius R. The concave shape of the receiving area 111 is provided for receiving the vacuum cleaner tube (not shown). In the middle of the receiving area 111 there is an element in the form of a magnet for fixing the vacuum cleaner tube. The radius R is larger than the radius of the vacuum cleaner tube. The aim of this is that the vacuum cleaner pipe can be easily introduced into the receiving area 111 and is then pulled and fixed to the center M as a result of the magnetic attraction.

Figur 2 zeigt die erfindungsgemäße Halterung 1 in einer Draufsicht. Im Gegensatz zur Halterung der Figur 1 weist der Aufnahmebereich 111 eine flachere und weitere Wölbung auf, wobei der gerundete Bereich vergrößert ist und somit ein breiterer Aufnahmebereich und eine breitere Ablagefläche für das Staubsaugerrohr 2 gegeben ist. Figure 2 shows the holder 1 according to the invention in a plan view. In contrast to the bracket of the Figure 1 the receiving area 111 has a flatter and wider curvature, the rounded area being enlarged and thus a wider receiving area and a wider storage area for the vacuum cleaner tube 2.

Aus Figur 3 ist eine weitere Ausführung der Erfindung ersichtlich. Die Halterung 1 ist hierbei in Form eines Griffes ausgebildet und die Halterung ist dabei in vorteilhafter Weise auf der Oberseite des Staubsaugers (nicht dargestellt) befestigt. Der Griff ist zum Aufnahmebereich 111 hin abfallend gestaltet, um eine bessere Griffmöglichkeit und Handhabung zu gewährleisten. Dadurch ist außerdem gewährleistet, dass der Griff dem Transport des Staubsaugers dienen kann.Out Figure 3 a further embodiment of the invention can be seen. The holder 1 is designed in the form of a handle and the holder is advantageously attached to the top of the vacuum cleaner (not shown). The handle is designed sloping down towards the receiving area 111 in order to ensure better grip and handling. This also ensures that the handle can be used to transport the vacuum cleaner.

Figur 4 zeigt die Halterung 1 entsprechend Figur 3. Das Staubsaugerrohr 2 liegt am Aufnahmebereich 111 des Aufnahmeelements 11 auf und wird durch ein Element zur Fixierung (vgl. Figur 5) in der Position gehalten. Figure 4 shows the holder 1 accordingly Figure 3 . The vacuum cleaner tube 2 rests on the receiving area 111 of the receiving element 11 and is secured by an element for fixing (cf. Figure 5 ) held in position.

Aus Figur 5 wird eine Halterung 1 entsprechend der Figuren 3 und 4 ersichtlich. Im Wege einer Schnittdarstellung wird das im Aufnahmebereich 111 angeordnete Element zur Fixierung 112 in Form eines Magneten dargestellt. Entsprechend der in Figur 4 gezeigten Anordnung wird das Staubsaugerrohr 2 von dem Magneten 112 in seiner Lage fixiert und gehalten. Der Aufnahmebereich 111 weist eine Oberfläche (Auflagefläche) auf, die insbesondere konkav ausgebildet ist, und an der das Teleskoprohr eines Staubsaugers in der Parkposition auf- bzw. anliegt. Der Magnet 112 ist unterhalb der Auflagefläche in der Halterung 1 angeordnet. Insbesondere kann der Magnet 112 in der Halterung 1 eingegossen sein, in einem in der Halterung 1 ausgebildeten Hohlraum aufgenommen sein oder an der der Auflagefläche abgewandten (gegenüber liegenden) Seite des Aufnahmeelements 11 angebracht sein.Out Figure 5 a bracket 1 according to the Figures 3 and 4th evident. By way of a sectional illustration, the element for fixing 112 arranged in the receiving area 111 is shown in the form of a magnet. According to the in Figure 4 The arrangement shown, the vacuum cleaner tube 2 is fixed and held in its position by the magnet 112. The receiving area 111 has a surface (support surface) which is designed in particular to be concave and on which the telescopic tube of a vacuum cleaner rests or rests in the parking position.
