【産業上の利用分野】[Industrial applications]

本考案は真空掃除機（以下掃除機と略す）のホース（Ｂ）先端の吸い込み口に取り付ける吸い口に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a suction port attached to a suction port at the end of a hose (B) of a vacuum cleaner (hereinafter referred to as a vacuum cleaner).

【０００２】[0002]

【従来の技術】[Prior art]

従来、部屋の隅や家具の裏側などを掃除機で埃を吸い取る場合、吸い込み口先端の細い隙間用吸い口をホース先端に取り付けて行なうが、このような場所の掃除では太陽からの自然光や部屋の照明等からの明かりが当たりにくく暗く作業がしにくい。そこで懐中電灯等を当てながら掃除をしていたが、これでは作業能率が悪かった。 Conventionally, when sucking dust from a corner of a room or the back of furniture with a vacuum cleaner, a suction port for a narrow gap at the suction port end is attached to the end of the hose.However, when cleaning such a place, natural sunlight from the sun or It is difficult to work because the light from the room lighting is difficult to hit. So I was cleaning it with a flashlight, but it wasn't efficient.

【考案が解決しようとする課題】[Problems to be solved by the device]

このような今までの隙間用吸い口の欠点を除くため、この照明付き吸い口を考案した。しかし照明付きと言っても照明を単に吸い口の外に取り付けては掃除の邪魔になりせっかく先細りになっている隙間用吸い口の意味がなくなるし、そうかと言って吸い口の中に照明を置いては吸入性能が悪くなる。また取り付けて照射する位置によっては吸い口が邪魔をして影を作ってしまう。そこでどのような構造のものにしたら今までのように使いやすい細い吸い口のままで、吸い込み口付近を理想的（広範囲）に照射できるかにある。 In order to eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional mouthpieces for gaps, we considered this illuminated mouthpiece. However, even if it is said that it is illuminated, simply attaching the light to the outside of the mouthpiece will obstruct the cleaning and the tapered mouthpiece for the gap has no meaning. If left unattended, the inhalation performance will deteriorate. Also, depending on the position where it is attached and illuminated, the mouthpiece interferes and creates a shadow. Therefore, what kind of structure should be used is to ideally (widely) irradiate the vicinity of the suction mouth up to the thin mouth that is easy to use.

【課題を解決するための手段】[Means for Solving the Problems]

吸い込み口（１）先端の開口部が小さく先細りになっている真空掃除機用吸い口に於いて、吸い込み口（１）先端から吸入管（２）内を通る直線方向に照明（３）を置き、この照明（３）からの光を吸入管（２）内を通し吸い込み口（１）先端に向けて広範囲に照射可能とさせるとともに、吸い込み口（１）先端付近の吸入管（２）を透過性部材（４）とし、吸い込み口（１）先端から続く吸入管経路を照明（３）の手前で曲げて照明（３）から逸らせたことを特徴とする照明付き真空掃除機用吸い口。 In a vacuum cleaner suction port where the opening at the tip of the suction port (1) is small and tapered, place the illumination (3) in a straight line from the tip of the suction port (1) to the inside of the suction pipe (2). , The light from this illumination (3) can be radiated through the suction pipe (2) toward the suction port (1) tip in a wide range and transmitted through the suction pipe (2) near the suction port (1) tip. The suction member for a vacuum cleaner with lighting, characterized in that the suction member (4) is bent in front of the lighting (3) to deviate from the lighting (3) by making the suction pipe path continuing from the tip of the suction port (1). mouth.

【作用】[Action]

照明（３）からの光りは吸入管（２）内を吸い込み口（１）方向へ進み先細りの管と同じように光の照射範囲も狭まれていきやがて吸い込み口（１）先端から外部へ照射されるが、吸い込み口（１）先端付近も透過性部材（４）の管になっているためこの透過性部材部分より先細りの管に反する形で光が管外に放射され吸い込み口（１）周辺にも照射される。吸入経路は吸い込み口（１）から先細りの管を通って照明（３）の手前で曲がり吸い込んだ埃と一緒に接続管（５）、ホース（Ｂ）を通って掃除機（Ａ）本体へ向かう。 The light from the illumination (3) advances in the suction pipe (2) toward the suction port (1), and the irradiation range of the light is narrowed as in the tapered pipe, and then it is irradiated from the tip of the suction port (1) to the outside. However, since the vicinity of the tip of the suction port (1) is also a tube of the transparent member (4), light is emitted from the transparent member portion outside the tube in a form that is against the tapered tube. The surrounding area is also illuminated. The suction route goes from the suction port (1) through a tapered pipe and bends in front of the lighting (3), and goes to the cleaner (A) body through the connecting pipe (5) and hose (B) along with the dust that has been sucked in. .

【実施例】【Example】

第１図は実施例１の構成を示した図である。への字に曲がった吸入管（２）の一方は先端に行くに従って管が窄まっている先細の吸い口を形成し、この先端の吸い込み口（１）から吸入管（２）内を通り真直ぐに進み突き当たる部分に吸い込み口（１）方向を照射する照明（３）がある。この照明（３）の前面には照明（３）を保護する目的で吸入管（２）とを隔てる透過性部材（４）から成る板（透明板）がある。吸い込み口（１）先端付近も透過性部材（４）すなわち透明な管により形成されている。吸入管（２）のもう一方の接続管（５）は掃除機（Ａ）のホース（Ｂ）に挿着できるように従来の吸い口と同じ形状の管としている。この照明（３）は電池（６）を電源とし掃除機本体から電源を貰わなくても機能するが、電池（６）の消耗を極力少なくするため掃除機（Ａ）の吸引始動および停止にしたがってこの照明（３）も自動的に点滅（吸引動作時は点灯、停止時は消灯）するように簡単な圧力スイッチ（７）（７ａから７ｄまでで構成されている）を設けている。この圧力スイッチ（７）について説明すると、吸入経路を塞ぐ状態に置かれた開閉板（７ａ）の一辺に屈曲部材（７ｂ）（蝶番等）があり開閉板（７ａ）はこの屈曲部材（７ｂ）を介して本体に固定され吸入する風の流れに合わせて掃除機（Ａ）方向（吸引方向）に屈曲可能としている。開閉板（７ａ）が吸引方向に屈曲（折れ曲がった）ときには吸入経路が開放された状態となる。そしてこの屈曲部材（７ｂ）には屈曲する回転軸に巻き付いた戻しバネ（７ｃ）があって常時開閉板（７ａ）に対して吸入経路を閉じる方向へ作用して、掃除機（Ａ）の吸引が停止しているときにはこの開閉板（７ａ）により吸入経路は閉じられるようになっている。またこの開閉板（７ａ）の動きによって押されるプッシュスイッチ（７ｄ）（押すと電気接点が離れるもの）がありこれを照明（３）のスイッチとして働かせ、開閉板（７ａ）が吸入経路を閉じているときにはこのプッシュスイッチ（７ｄ）が押されるようになっている。したがって照明（３）はこのとき消灯する。いま掃除機（Ａ）を起動し吸入する風圧が発生すると開閉板（７ａ）は吸引方向へ折れ曲がり吸入経路を開放するとともにプッシュスイッチ（７ｄ）をオンにさせ照明（３）が点灯する。切り替えスイッチ（８）は照明（３）のもので電源オフと圧力スイッチによる点滅、常時点灯の何れかの選択を行なう。 FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the configuration of the first embodiment. One of the suction pipes (2) bent in a V shape forms a tapered suction port in which the pipe is narrowed toward the tip, and passes straight from the suction port (1) at this tip through the suction pipe (2). There is an illumination (3) that irradiates the suction port (1) toward the abutting part. On the front surface of this illumination (3) is a plate (transparent plate) made of a transparent member (4) separating the suction pipe (2) for the purpose of protecting the illumination (3). The vicinity of the tip of the suction port (1) is also formed by the transparent member (4), that is, a transparent tube. The other connecting pipe (5) of the suction pipe (2) has the same shape as the conventional suction port so that it can be inserted into the hose (B) of the cleaner (A). This illuminator (3) works with the battery (6) as the power source, without the need for power from the cleaner body. However, in order to minimize the consumption of the battery (6), the vacuum cleaner (A) suction start and A simple pressure switch (7) (consisting of 7a to 7d) is provided so that this lighting (3) also automatically blinks (lights up during suction operation, turns off when stopped) when stopped. . Explaining the pressure switch (7), there is a bending member (7b) (hinge, etc.) on one side of the opening / closing plate (7a) placed so as to block the suction passage, and the opening / closing plate (7a) is the bending member (7b). It is fixed to the main body via the () and can be bent in the cleaner (A) direction (suction direction) according to the flow of the inhaled air. When the opening / closing plate (7a) is bent (bent) in the suction direction, the suction path is open. Then, this bending member (7b) has a return spring (7c) wound around a bending rotary shaft, and always acts on the opening / closing plate (7a) in the direction of closing the suction passage, so that the cleaner (A) When suction is stopped, the suction passage is closed by the opening / closing plate (7a). In addition, there is a push switch (7d) that is pushed by the movement of the opening / closing plate (7a) (the electrical contact is released when pressed), and this works as a switch for the illumination (3), and the opening / closing plate (7a) closes the suction path. The push switch (7d) is pressed during the operation. Therefore, the illumination (3) is turned off at this time. Now, when the cleaner (A) is activated to generate wind pressure for inhaling, the opening / closing plate (7a) bends in the suction direction to open the inhalation path, and the push switch (7d) is turned on to turn on the illumination (3). The change-over switch (8) is for the illumination (3) and is selected from power off, lighting by pressure switch, and constant lighting.
