container (30). The connector plate (10) comprises a front sur-
face (5), a first side surface (1) adapted to be inserted into
holder (40) of a vacuum cleaner, a second side surface (2), a
third side surface (3) connecting the first and second side sur-
faces, and forth side surface (4) connecting the first and sec-
ond side surfaces. The front surface (5) comprises an opening
(6) for an air flow (F) from a vacuum cleaner. The second side
surface (2) is arranged closer to the opening (6) than the first
side surface (1). In a first position of the connector plate a
first distance (D1) between the first side (1) and the second
side is 75-90 % less than the length of the third side surface
(L1) or the length of the fourth side surface (L2).
In a second position of the connector plate a second distance
(D2) between the first side surface (1) and the second side sur-
face (2) is substantially the same as the length of the third
side surface (L1) or the length of the fourth side surfaces
(L2).
Fig 3 shows a connector plate (10) for a vacuum cleaner dust
container (30). The connector plate (10) comprises, a front sur-
face (5) having an opening (6) for an airflow (F) from a vacuum
cleaner, a first side edge (1´), a second opposite side edge
(2´), the second side edge (2´) being arranged closer to the
opening (6) than the first side edge (1´). A third normal (N3)
is extending in the direction of the front surface at the first
side edge. A fourth normal (N4) is extending in the direction of
the front surface at the second side edge. In a first position a
gamma angle (γ) between the third normal (N3) and the fourth
normal (N4) is less than 170 degrees, preferably less than 150
degrees.
In a second position of the connector plate the gamma angle (γ)
between the third normal (N3) and the fourth normal (N4) is sub-
stantially 180 degrees.
Fig 3 shows a connector plate (10) for a vacuum cleaner dust
container. The connector plate (10) comprises a first side sur-
face (1), a second side surface (2), a third side surface (3)
connected to the first and second side surfaces, and a fourth
side surface (4) connected to the first and second side sur-
faces. The connector plate also comprises a front surface (5)
having an opening (6) for an air flow of a vacuum cleaner. Said
opening (6) have a center. The collector plate (10) in a first
position, is arranged such that the distance (D) between a line
(L) through the center of the opening and parallel to the second
side surface (2) or the first side surface (1) is less than the
length of the third side surface from the line to the first side
surface (L1´) or the length of the fourth side surface from the
line to the first side surface (L2´).
In a second position of the connector plate the distance (D) be-
tween the line through the center of the opening and the first
side surface is substantially the same as the length of the
third side surface from the line to the first side surface (L1´)
or the length of the fourth side surface from the line to the
first side surface (L2´).
The connector plate shown in the Figures has a gasket (9) around
the opening (6) so as to provide a sealing function, reducing
leaks in the flow from an inlet hose to the dust bag. The con-
nector plate has a flexible zone (7) arranged between the open-
ing (6) and the first side surface (1). The flexible zone (7)
may comprise a living hinge, a perforation, a rib structure, or
a flexible material.
While the flexible zone (7) make it easy to bend a part of the
connector plate, it is still desired that the connector plate
remains substantially flat during production and/or during
transportation and handling. That is, until the dust container
is to be used, it is preferred that the connector remains in the
flat shape illustrated in Fig 1. This makes it easier for in-
stance to attach the connector plate 3 to the dust bag 5 in an
efficient automated process. This may be achieved by a flexible
zone that requires some force to be flexible, like living hinge,
a perforation, a rib structure or a flexible material.
A part of the first side surface (1) has a sensing area (14)
adapted to interact with a sensor or safety mechanism in a vac-
uum cleaner.
The first side surface (1) comprises at least one hole and/or
recess (15). The hole or recess is adapted to lock the connector
plate in that holder so that some force is required to remove
the connector plate and dust bag from the holder.
Close to the second side surface (2) the connector plate is pro-
vided with at least one tab (12) extending sideways outside of
the side edge surface.
As can be seen in the Figures the second side edge (2´) is ar-
ranged closer to the opening (6) than the first side edge (1´).
The first side surface (1) is adapted to be inserted into the
dust container holder of the canister vacuum cleaner.
The connector plate may also comprise a closing mechanism (not
shown) adapted to be able to close the opening (6). The opening
(6) is preferably closed before the user remove the dust con-
tainer form the vacuum cleaner to avoid that dust falls out dur-
ing the removal and disposal of the dust container. The closing
mechanism may be a slidable shutter, a lid or a hatch.
The connector plate (10) is mainly or wholly made of a plastic
material, preferably Polypropylene, PP, and/or polyethylene, PE,
paper, preferably cardboard, metal, or a wood-based material.
In one embodiment the connector plate is mainly man of paper,
preferably cardboard. The flexible zone comprises one or more
perforations or holes substantially parallel to the second side
surface.
In one embodiment a dust container (30) for a vacuum cleaner
comprises an air permeable bag (20) and a connector plate. The
bag having a bag opening (21). The connector plate (10) is at-
tached to the bag (20), preferably by gluing, so that the bag
opening (21) and the opening (6) of the connector plate coin-
cide.
The disclosure shows that the connector plate can easily be in-
serted into a holder where the inner part of the holder, that
takes up the connector plate’s flexible zone (7) , can be
curved. The insertion into the holder forces the flexible zone
(7) to be bent. Thereby the holder can better use the available
space inside a vacuum cleaner canister, which may have a curved
inner wall. The holder may closely follow the inner wall, such
that the dust bag may be allowed to expand to a greater extent,
thereby increasing the available dust bag volume. The whole
length of the connector plate may still contribute in keeping
the dust bag safely in the correct position.
In general, a greater freedom to locate the end of the holder
where desired is obtained. In one example, a mechanical function
may be provided in the holder end, verifying that a bag is cor-
rectly installed and prohibiting closing of a canister hatch un-
less a bag is provided. Using a curved holder, allows this func-
tion to be located at a number of positions along the canister
periphery.
