The present invention relates to vacuumcleaners and has for its object to provide` a device of this class characterized bythe provision of improved means for sifting the dust laden\air drawn into the cleaner and for depositing the entrained particles of matter in a defined receptacle from which it may be readily removed.
It is well known that vacuum cleaners, as herei tofore constructed, are adapted to remove dirt from the air by thesifting action obtained in passing it through -a fabric, usually in the form of a cloth bag, but such prior devices possess certain objectionable features due to the necessity of cleaning the dirt holding bag after continued 15. use. Furthermore, continued use of the dirtholding bag without frequent cleaning serves to reduce the efficiency of lthe cleaner, as a whole, due to the fact lthat.as the air sifting action continues, the fabric of the bag becomes more and more clogged with the accumulating dust andr other particles, so that the blower works under la. constantly increasing load. Therefore, in order to maintain a vacuum cleaner of this type in proper operating condition, it is necessary to frepresent invention provides an improved device inv which the fabric through which the dust laden air is siftedis swept clean while the cleaner is in` operation, this sweeping action serving to deposit all of the dirt anddust in'a receptacle separate from thefabric. In addition, the dirt receptacle is capable of being readily removed so that it may be quickly emptied, without any of the unpleasant features accompanying the cleaningof a fabric bag. As Ia result, the cleaner always operates at high emciency and it is never necessary for the user to clean the fabric through which the dust laden air is sifted. The above and` other advantageous features of the invention will hereinafter more fully appear with reference to the accompanying drawings in which- Fig. 1 is a view partiallyin section and partially in side elevation of a'vacuuni cleaner embodying the invention. y
Fig. 2 is a view in end elevation of the cleaner shown in Fig. 1, looking at the right hand end, with the cover removed.
Fig. 3 is a vertical "sectional view along the line 3-3 of Fig. 1,1ooking in the direction 0f the arrows.
(cl. 18s-60) Fig. is a fragmentary view showing a modification of thel dust tray shown in Fig. 3.
Fig. 5 is a horizontal fragmentary section sub-I stantially along the line 5-5 of Fig. 1 looking n 5 in the direction of the arrows.
Like reference characters referto like parts throughout the drawings.
Referring first to Figs. 1 and 2,` the cleaner consists of a suction nozzle 1 of a conventional type into which' air is adapted to be sucked by means of a blower 2 rotatable within a suitable casing 3. The blower 2 is mounted on the shaft 4 of an electric motor 5 inclosed. within a ventilated dirt-proof casing 6 providing a flange 6a secured to the blower casing 3` by screws 7,' see Fig. 3. The screws 7 also serve to support an annular plate 8 surrounding the motor casing 6 and this plate 8 supports a cylindrical housing 9 by means of screws 10 passing through a flange 9a of the housing 9. Dust laden air sucked into the nozzle 1 by the operationL of the blower 2 is exhausted through an arcuate passage 11, extending through the upper portion of motor casing flange 6a and plate 8, into a cylindrical air cleaning cage 12. The cage 12 is spaced from the inner wall of the housing 9, with one end attached to the end plate 8, outside-of the exhaust passage 11, while its other end is supported symmetrically within the housing 9 by a bracket 13 having feet 14 secured 'to the inner wall of the housing 9. 'I'he cage 12 is preferably composed of open work; semi-rigid material, such askwire screening, which serves to support an inner layer of fabric 15 of such density that air will readily blow therethrough while at the same time depositing dust, or any other entrained matter, onthe inside of the fabric-15. Thus, the fabric 15 and its inclosing wire cage 12 define a cylindrical chamber 16 open at one end to the exhaust of the blower 2 through the passage 11 and providing walls. through whichthe air may readily pass with a cleaning action.
In the absence of the provision of any other means, it is obvious that the delivery of a blast of dust laden air into the chamber 16 by the blower 2 will result in sifting the air through the fabric 15 and wire cage 12, the cleansed air being free to pass out of the housing 9 through an opening 17, see Fig. 3, leaving the particles of dust and other matter deposited on the inside of the fabric 15. But as previouslypointed out, the present invention contemplates the provision of means for cleaning the sifting fabric 15 while the cleaner is in use, and'one preferred embodinment of such a fabric cleaning means resides in the provision of a wiper 18 extending the length of the chamber 16 with bristles 19 carried thereby just engaging the inner surface of the fabric 15. As best shown in Figs. 1 and 3, the wiper 18 consists of a rod 20 curved spirally around the motor casing 6 and connected by a radial arm 21 to a shaft 22 which is journaled in a central boss 23 provided by thebracket 13. The arm 21 also carries bristles engaging the end wall of the chamber'l. The other end of the shaft 22 carries a pulley 24 connected by a belt 25 to a drum 26 carried by a shaft, or axle, 27 extending transversely of the housing 9 and supported by bearings 28 secured to the arms of the bracket 13. As best shown in Fig. 2, the ends of the axle 27 project beyond the sides of the housing 9 and serve to vcarry wheels 29, 29 for supporting the rear end of the housing 9. One wheel 29 is loosely mounted cn the axle 27 while the other is connected thereto and is adapted to turn the drum 26 in one direction of rotation only through the provision of a one-way clutch device of any desired type. As shown, the axle 27 carries a collar 30 providing teeth 31 adapted to cooperate with teeth 32 provided on the drum 26 to impart rotation of the axle to the drum in one direction of rotation only. With this arrangement, it is obvious that intermittent rotative movement will be imparted to the drum 26 as the cleaner is moved back and forth on the oor, the rotative movement of one wheel 29 preferably being imparted to the drum 26, through the engaged teeth 31 and 32, on the forward movement of the cleaner.
It is obvious that rotative movement of the drum 26 will be transmitted to the shaft 22 through the belt 25, so that the wiper 18 will be stepped around within the chamber 16 to caus'e the bristles 19 to sweep the inner surface of the fabric 15. In order to prevent frictional engagement between the spiral wiper rod- 20 and the motor casing 6, the end of the rod carries a small roll 33 bearing on the outer periphery of thecasing 6. As a result of the above described sweeping action of the wiper 18, it is obvious that any dirt or other particles deposited on the inner surface of the fabric 15 by the passage of the air therethrough will be removed from the fabric each time the cleaner itself is pushed forward on the floor, and my invention further contemplates the collection of this dirt in a receptacle, or tray, 34, removably carried by the housing 9. As shown in Fig. 3, thebottom of the housing 9 provides an opening 35 and the material of the screen cage 12 is secured'to' the sides of this opening 35. The tray 34'provides a flange 36 the dimensions of which are somewhat greater than the dimensions of the opening 35, and this flange 36 carries a suitable dust-proof packing 37. The tray 34 is secured to the lower side of the housing 9, with its packing 37 closely surrounding the opening 35, by means of a projecting pi'n 38 carried at one end of the tray 34 and received in an opening 39 provided in a portion of the plate 8 and housing 9 extending below the opening 35,A see Fig. 1. The other end of the tray is provided with a turnedover handle 41, whereby the tray may be readily seized, and a spring latch 42 carried by the lower surface of the housing 9 serves to tightly hold the tray 34 in position with its packing 37 in close engagement with the edges of the opening 35.
In operating the cleaner, it is obvious that rotation of the blower 2 by the motor 5 will deliver a blast of dust laden air into the central chamber 16 and that the air in escaping from the chamber 16 will pass through the surrounding walls of the fabric 15, leaving the dirt deposited on the fabric. As the cleaner is moved back and forth on the floor, rotation of the wheels 29 will impart intermittent rotative movement to the wiper 18, thereby cleaning the inner surface of the fabric 15, at frequent intervals. It is obvious that the dirt and dust removed from the fabric 15 by this sweeping action will fall through the opening 35 at the bottom of the housing 9 and will bedeposited in the tray 34. After the cleaner has been in use some time, the tray 34 can readily be removed by releasing the spring latch 42, thus permitting the tray to be quickly' withdrawn by the handle 41 and emptied of the accumulated dirt. While the dirt is collecting in the. tray 34, it is obvious that the insidesurface of the fabric 15 will be kept clean, so that the cleaner always operates with the same efficiency. l
While the cleaner is in operation, the motor 5 is kept cool by the rotation of a small fan 43 carried at the inner end of the shaft 4, within the motor casing 6. The warm air circulated by the operation of the fan -43 is drawn into a'nd exhausted from the casing 6 through vents 44 provided in the end fiange 6a of the casing 6, as indicated in Fig. 5 andby the portion not sectioned in Fig. 1. The amount of circulation of warm air by the fan 43 will depend largely upon the difference in temperature and pressure between the air within the motor casing and the air outside. Obidously, when the air within the motor casing becomes warmer than the outside air, the warmer air will tend to be exhausted through the upper vents 44, while the cooler air enters the lower vents, the flow of air being accelerated by an increase of pressure within the motor casing.
While I have shown my invention in a preferred form, it is obvious that modications thereof may be carried out without departing from the invention. In addition, as shown in Fig. 4, the cleaning eifect could be increased by providing a reinforced fabric lining. 45 on the inside of the tray 46, with suitable openings 47 in the tray 46 to permit escape of the cleaned air. With a fabric screen in the tray, obviously the dirt and dust deposited in the tray 46 would tend to be collected more orless compactly around its bottom and sides, without any possibility of its being stirred up by the air exhausted into the chamber 16. 'I'his compacting of the dirt within the tray 46 Awould also assist in its ready removal.
