Definitions
- This invention pertains, in general, to disposable dust bags for vacuum cleaners; and, in particular, to an inexpensive and substantially self-sealing end closure for such dust bags.
- disposable dust bags are now in general use to collect dust, lint and dirt in vacuum cleaners; e.g., in the so-called tank-type or canister-type vacuum cleaner.
- One conventional type of disposable dust bag is comprised of a porous paper bag and a fiat cardboard piece which serves as an end closure for the bag.
- the cardboard end closure is provided with a suitable opening through which an inlet conduit, mounted in a movable end cover of the tank unit or canister unit, is injected to introduce the dust, dirt, etc., directly into the paper bag.
- the end closure be substantially self-sealing when the inlet conduit is withdrawn from the end closures opening as the end cover is being opened to remove the filled dust bag.
- the general object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved disposable dust bag for vacuum cleaners.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide an end closure for disposable dust bags, the end closure being substantially self-sealing as the filled dust bag is being removed from the vacuum cleaner for disposal.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide an end closure for disposable dust bags, the end closure comprising a minimum number of parts and being formed with a minimum number of manufacturing operations.
- the end closure is comprised of a sheet of cardboard or like material.
- the sheet has two apertures therethrough and is suitably precut and scored to form two flaps.
- One flap constitutes a portion of the material which has been cut from the rest of the sheet to form one aperture and the other fiap constitutes a portion of the material which has been cut from the rest of the sheet to form the other aperture.
- the flap in the upper ply covers that portion of the aperture in the lower ply not occupied by the flap in the lower ply and overlaps part of the lower flap.
- the flap in the lower ply covers that portion of the aperture in the upper ply not occupied by the upper flap and overlaps part of the upper fiap.
- the two-ply cardboard sheet is cemented to the open end of a paper dust bag.
- the assembled bag is inserted into a compartment in the tank unit of the vacuum cleaner.
- its associated inlet conduit breaks some of the scored lines defining the periphery of the flaps.
- these flaps are hinged inwardly into the dust bag, somewhat like the action of swinging doors, and the inlet conduit is able to enter the bag through the unobstructed opening.
- This inlet opening is comprised of the two registered apertures in the upper and lower plies, respectively, which are completely opened when the two fiaps hinge into the bag.
- FIG. 1 shows a precut and scored blank of suitable material, such as cardboard, from which the end closure of the present invention can be formed;
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view, on a reduced scale, showing the blank of FIG. 1 being folded;
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the end closure of the present invention having a disposable vacuum cleaner dust bag attached thereto;
- FIG. 4 is an enlarged cross-section of part of the end closure of FIG. 3 as seen along the line 4-4 of FIG. 3;
- FIG. 5 shows the dust bag of FIG. 3 situated within the tank unit of a vacuum cleaner, the end cover of the tank unit being about to be closed;
- FIG. 6 is a view similar to FIG. 5 showing the tank units end cover closed and the end covers inlet nozzle protruding through the subject and closure into the dust
- FIG. 7 is a view similar to FIG. 6 except that the vacuum cleaners en-d cover is open and its inlet nozzle is withdrawn from the dust bag and out of contact with the subject end closure;
- FIG. 8 shows a portion of a modified, precut and scored blank useful for forming an end closure in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 9 shows a perspective view, on a somewhat reduced scale, of a portion of the two ply end closure formed from the blank of FIG. 8.
- a blank designated generally by the reference number 10
- a sheet of stilf material having a certain degree of flexibility; e.g., a cardboard sheet or flexible plastic sheet.
- Cardboard has been found to be suitable because it is relatively inexpensive and it is easily handled, cut and scored.
- the two ply card-board end closure of the present invention has been found to be stiff enough to withstand buckling or bending due to the pressure difference existing between opposite faces of the end closure when the vacuum cleaners suction-producing fan is operating.
- a scored line 12 divides the blank 10 into two equal integral sheets, or half sections, 14 and 16 which, when folded on the scored line 12 (FIGS. 1 and 2) will form two superimposed plies 14 and 16 of the subject end closure a (FIG. 3).
- Each of the sheets, or plies, 14 and 16 has the holes 18 and 20, respectively, therethrough; the geometric shape of each of the holes 18 and 20 being generally that of a segment of an elliptical aperture, as shown at FIG. 1.
- the sheet 14 has the flap 22 integrally formed therein and the sheet 16 has the flap 24 integrally formed therein.
- These enlarged openings or apertures include the holes 18 and 26 which were contiguous with the fiaps 22 and 24, respectively, before the flaps were swung away from the planes of their sheets.
- the enlarged openings, or apertures are generally elliptical.
- the formation of the apertures through the plies with the flaps 22 and 24 therein in best illustrated at FIG. 1.
- the sheet 14, which ultimately is to become the upper ply 14 of the end closure 1% (FIG. 3), has a piece completely removed therefrom to form the hole 18 and has two elliptically arcuate cuts 26 and 28 made therethrough. These cuts 26 and 28 pass completely through the sheets thickness dimension. Between the free or leading edge 30 of the fiap 22 and cut 26 there is the relatively short arcuate scored line 32. Similarly, between the edge 30 and the cut 28 there is another relatively short arcuate scored line 34. Intermediate the arcuate cuts 26 and 28 is the straight scored line 36. As will be more fully appreciated hereinafter, that portion of the sheet 14 which has the scored line 36 therein serves as a hinge about which the flap 22 can be swung.
- Sheet 16 which ultimatel is to become the lower ply 16 of the end closure 100 (FIG. 3), has a piece completely removed therefrom to form the hole 20 and has two elliptically arcuate cuts 38 and 40 formed therethrough. These cuts 38 and 40 pass completely through the sheets thickness dimension. Between the free or leading edge 42 of the flap 24 and the cut 38 there is the relatively short arcuate scored line 44. Similarly between the edge 42 and the cut 40 there is the relatively short arcuate scored line 46. Intermediate the arcuate cuts 38 and 40 is the straight line 48. That portion of the sheet 16 which has the scored line 48 therein serves as a hinge about which the flap 24 can be swung.
- the flap 22, being integral with the sheet 14 is within the periphery defined by its edge 30, the scored lines 32, 34 and 36 and the cut lines 26 and 28.
- the flap 24, which is integral with the sheet 16 is within the periphery defined by its edge 42, the scored lines 44, 46 and 48 and the cut lines 38 and 40.
- the two ply end closure 10a (FIGS. 3 and 4).
- the sheet 14 serves as the upper ply
- the sheet 16 serves as the lower ply
- the enlarged opening, or aperture, in the upper ply will be substantially in register with the enlarged opening, or aperture, in the lower ply.
- the two ply end closure 10a is cemented to the flat end of the paper dust bag 50. This end is formed with an opening therethrough which registers with the apertures in the two plies.
- This dust bag may comprise a porous paper bag lined on the inside with one or more layers of a relatively more porous filter material.
- the dust bag 50 may be constructed like the lined bag disclosed in US. Patent No. 2,804,166 issued to H. W. Stevens et al. on August 27, 1957. However, if desired, the bag 50 may be just an unlined porous paper bag.
- the scored lines 32, 34 and 36 in the sheet 14 are made in one face of the blank 10, while the scored lines 44, 46 and 48 in sheet 16 are made in the opposite face of the blank. It is not indispensable that the scored lines 32 and 34, which are to be severed eventually, be made in one face and that the scored lines 44 and 46, which will also be severed eventually, be made in opposite face of the blank.
- short lines 32, 34, 44 and 46 be scored, rather than completely out through the sheets 14 and 16 which would, in effect, continue the cut lines 26 and 28 and the cut lines 38 and 40 to the edges 30 and 42, respectively.
- the flaps 22 and 24 will remain secured in co-planar relationship with their respective sheets 14 and 16 during the various manufacturing steps preceding the realization of the assembled dust bag of FIG. 3 and the packaging thereof.
- the scored hinged lines 36 and 48 which will not be severed but will act as hinges, be made in opposite faces of the blank 10 so that when the blank is folded, the scored hingle lines 36 and 48 are in the upper face of their respective plies or sheets 14 and 16, as shown in FIG. 4.
- the reason for having the scored hinge lines 36 and 48 in the upper faces of their plies or sheets is that the flaps 22 and 24, as they are being swung into the dust bag 58 to the positions shown in FIG. 6, will have less tendency to tear at these hinge lines than would be the case if the scored hinge lines 36 and 48 were in the lower faces (i.e., the faces nearest the dust bags interior) of their plies or sheets.
- the flaps 22 and 24 are arranged in overlapping relation and are, in effect, cantilevered from their respective sheets 14 and 16. As indicated, the flap 24 is normally overlapped by part of the flap 22 and covers the hole 18 while the flap 22 covers the hole 20.
- the dust bag 50 which has not as yet been expanded by airflow, is situated in place in the dust bag compartment 52 of the tank or canister 54 of a tank-type vacuum cleaner. Apertures such as 60 are provided in the wall of the compartment 52 to allow airflow to pass therethrough from the dust bag 50 and onward through the tank unit 54.
- the hinged end cover 56 of the vacuum cleaner is about to be closed so that its suction inlet conduit 58 can apply force to the flaps 22 and 24 to sever the short scored lines 32, 34, 44 and 46 and swing the flaps into the dust bag about those portions of the sheets which have the scored hinge lines 36 and 48 therein.
- the suction inlet conduit 58 protrudes into the bag through the registering enlarged openings, or apertures, defined in the end closure 10a.
- These registering enlarged openings, or apertures form one aperture which is generally elliptical in shape and it is defined by the holes 18 and 20 and the spaces contiguous thereto which are left in the plies 14 and 16 when the fiaps 22 and 24 have hinged inwardly into the bag 50.
- Encompassing the suction inlet conduit 58 is annular sealing member 62.
- the sealing member 62 may be fashioned from rubber or the like. As shown at FIG. 6 the sealing member 62 serves to provide a seal between the inlet conduit 58 and the outer face of the upper ply 14 of the subject end closure so that airflow into the dust bag 50 can only occur through the inlet conduit 58.
- FIGS. 8 and 9 there is shown another configuration of the end closure according to the present invention.
- a blank 10b of flexible material, such as cardboard similar to the blank 10 in FIG. 1.
- This blank 1% is also divided into two equal halt sections or sheets 14a and 16a by a centrally located scored line 12:: about which the blank 10b is to be folded in half, in the same manner as hereinbefore described with reference to the blank 10 shown in FIGS. 1-4.
- the sheet 14 : there is a piece completely removed therefrom to provide a hole 180.
- the two circular arcs 26a and 28a are cut through the sheet 14a. Intermediate these cuts 26a and 28a and the edge 30a,
- the two relatively short scored lines 32a and 34a Eventually, these scored lines 32a and 3411 will be severed by the inlet conduit 58. Also, intermediate the cut lines 26a and 28a is the straight line 36a which eventually will serve as a hinge line about which the flap 22a may be rotated. To provide the flap 24a the sheet 16a is similarly formed in that two circular arcs 38a and 49a are cut through the sheet 16a. Also, the two small arcuate scored lines 44a and 46a, which eventually are to be severed, are made between the edge 42a of the flap 24a and the cut lines 38:: and a. A generally straight scored line 48a which will eventually serve as a hinge line about which the flap may be rotated is made intermediate the cut lines 38a and 400.
- the flaps 22a and 24a are of different lengths, flap 240 being larger than flap 220. Also, the hole 18a is larger than the hole 29a.
- the flaps When the flaps are swung away from the planes of their respective sheets they leave enlarged openings, or apertures. These enlarged openings, or apertures, include the holes 18a and 20arespectively, which were contiguous with the respective flaps before the flaps were swung away from the planes of their respective sheets; the enlarged openings, or apertures, being generally circular.
- the enlarged openings, or apertures are substantially in register and eventually will provide one generally circular aperture through which the inlet conduit 58 can protrude into the dust bag in the same way as shown at FIG. 6.
- the flaps 22a and 24a return substantially to the planes of their respective sheets 14a and 16a in the same way as shown at FIG. 7.
- the flaps 22a and 24a are returning toward the planes of their respective sheets there is relatively little frictional contact between the leading or free edge of one flap and the face of the other flap because only a small surface area of the nose portion 30b of flap 22a will be in sliding contact with the upper face of the flap 24a.
- both flaps 22a and 24a will return to substantially a co-planar relation with its respective sheet and thereby both flaps will substantially close the enlarged circular opening or aperture completely which the flaps once defined when they were in the positions like the flaps 22 and 24 of FIG. 6.
- An end closure for a dust bag comp-rising: two superimposed flexible sheets, each sheet having one aperture therein coplanar with said sheet, a portion of each sheet being cut to define a single flap integral with said sheet and normally cantilevered therefrom into said one aperture and in coplanar relation with said one aperture to close .a major part of said aperture while leaving a single minor part of said aperture open, the apertures in the superimposed sheets being substantially in registry, both flaps, when in coplanar relation with their respective apertures, being arranged such that they extend in substantial- 1y diametrically opposite directions toward each other and overlap each other with the flap in one sheet completely covering the single open minor part of the aperture in the other sheet and the flap in said other sheet completely covering the single open minor part of the aperture in said one sheet.
