Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Bodenstaubsauger zum Aufsaugen von einzusammelnden Partikeln mit mindestens einer Sammelkammer zum Ansammeln der Partikel und mindestens einer Aufnahmekammer für Saugmittel, wobei die Sammelkammer und die Aufnahmekammer durch eine Trennwand voneinander separiert sind, die eine Eintrittsöffnung für einen Luftstrom von der Sammelkammer zu den Saugmitteln aufweist. Eine solche Vorrichtung mit einem trichterförmigen Schallabsorber zwischen Sammelkammer und Aufnahmekammer ist aus der
In der Praxis kann insbesondere bei ultrakompakten Staubsaugern, vorzugsweise Bodenstaubsaugern, deren Saugleistung zu niedrig sein. Dies kann beispielsweise durch eine verwinkelte Führung des Saugluftstroms durch die äußerst kompakte Anordnung der einzelnen Bauteile im Inneren des Gehäuses solcher Staubsauger herrühren. Weiterhin können in die Chassis eines solchen Staubsaugers aufgrund des geringen Platzangebots oftmals nur leistungsschwächere Gebläseaggregate bzw. Saugaggregate angebracht werden, die gegenüber herkömmlichen, größeren Staubsaugertypen geringere Saugleistungen aufweisen.In practice, especially in ultra-compact vacuum cleaners, preferably vacuum cleaners, whose suction power is too low. This can for example be caused by an angled guidance of the suction air flow through the extremely compact arrangement of the individual components in the interior of the housing of such vacuum cleaners. Furthermore, in the chassis of such a vacuum cleaner due to the small space often only weaker blower units or suction units are mounted, which have lower suction than conventional, larger types of vacuum cleaner.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Bodenstaubsauger zum Aufsaugen von einzusammelnden Partikeln bereitzustellen, dessen Saugleistung selbst bei kompakter Bauweise verbessert ist. Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem Bodenstaubsauger der eingangs genannten Art dadurch gelöst, daß die Trennwand als Eintrittsöffnung zur Ankopplung der Sammelkammer an Saugmittel der Aufnahmekammer einen Luftleittrichter aufweist, dessen Eintrittsfläche den wesentlichen Teil der Trennwandfläche bildet.The invention has for its object to provide a vacuum cleaner for vacuuming particles to be collected, the suction power is improved even with a compact design. This object is achieved in a canister vacuum cleaner of the type mentioned above in that the partition wall as an inlet opening for coupling the collecting chamber to the suction means of the receiving chamber has a Luftleittrichter whose inlet surface forms the essential part of the partition wall surface.
Dadurch, daß die Trennwand als Eintrittsöffnung einen Luftleittrichter aufweist, dessen Eintrittsfläche den wesentlichen Teil der Trennwandfläche bildet, wird ein zu großer Druckverlust des Luftstroms vom Sammelraum bzw. der Sammelkammer zu den Saugmitteln weitgehend vermieden. Weiterhin wird dadurch eine zu stark beeinträchtigende Geräuschentwicklung weitgehend vermieden. Denn je größer die Eintrittsfläche des Luftleittrichters gewählt ist, desto weniger Widerstand wird dem zu den Saugmitteln gerichteten Luftstrom entgegengesetzt. Dadurch sind weitaus weniger Luftverwirbelungen in Richtung des Sammelraums möglich. Insgesamt läßt sich verbessert ein gerichteter Luftstrom vom Sammelraum durch den Luftleittrichter zu den Saugmitteln bereitstellen.Due to the fact that the partition wall has as an inlet opening an air-conducting funnel whose entry surface forms the essential part of the dividing wall surface, an excessive pressure loss of the airflow from the collecting space or the collecting chamber to the suction means is largely avoided. Furthermore, this overly affecting noise development is largely avoided. Because the larger the entry surface of the air guide funnel is selected, the less resistance is opposed to the directed to the suction air flow. Thereby are much less Air turbulence in the direction of the collection room possible. Overall, a directional air flow from the collecting space through the air guide funnel to the suction means can be improved.

Elemente mit gleicher Funktion und Wirkungsweise sind in den
Zweckmäßig kann es gegebenenfalls sein, in der Sammelkammer SR zwischen der Eintrittsöffnung EO und dem Staubbeutel PF zusätzlich mindestens ein Filterelement wie zum Beispiel ein Filtervlies zwischenzuschalten.It may be expedient, if appropriate, optionally to interpose at least one filter element, for example a filter fleece, in the collecting chamber SR between the inlet opening EO and the dust bag PF.
Im Gehäuse GH des Staubsaugers SS von
Um nun eine ausreichende Saugleistung des Staubsaugers SS selbst bei kompaktem Baumaß bereitstellen zu können, wird die Eintrittsöffnung in der Trennwand TW zweckmäßigerweise an einer solchen Stelle vorgesehen, daß der Luftstrom LF von der Eintrittsöffnung EO durch den Sammelraum SR zu den Saugmitteln GB, MO hinter der Trennwand TW im Aufnahmeraum MR im wesentlichen geradlinig gerichtet führbar ist. Um eine solche gezielte Luftführung zu ermöglichen, das heißt der eingesaugten Luft eine bestimmte, vorgebbare Strömungsrichtung aufprägen zu können, ist die Einlaßöffnung in der Trennwand TW als Luftleittrichter LT ausgebildet. Dieser Luftleittrichter LT verjüngt sich ausgehend von seiner Eintrittsfläche beim Sammelraum SR in Richtung auf die Saugmittel GB, MR zu. An seine Austrittsöffnung sind unmittelbar die Saugmittel, insbesondere das Gebläse GB möglichst dicht mechanisch angekoppelt.In order to be able to provide a sufficient suction power of the vacuum cleaner SS even with a compact structural dimension, the inlet opening in the partition TW is expediently provided at such a point that the air flow LF from the inlet opening EO through the collecting space SR to the suction means GB, MO behind the Dividing wall TW in the receiving space MR is directed substantially rectilinear guided. In order to enable such a targeted air flow, that is, to be able to impart a certain, predeterminable flow direction to the sucked-in air, the inlet opening in the dividing wall TW is designed as an air-guiding funnel LT. This air-guiding funnel LT tapers, starting from its entry surface, to the collecting space SR in the direction of the suction means GB, MR. At its outlet opening directly the suction means, in particular the fan GB as close as possible mechanically coupled.
Eine zweckmäßige Ausgestaltung des Luftleittrichters LT von
Der Luftleittrichter LT ist nun vorteilhafterweise als Eintrittsöffnung in der Trennwand TW derart ausgebildet, daß seine Eintrittsfläche den wesentlichen Teil der Trennwandfläche bildet. Dies geht insbesondere aus
Gegebenenfalls kann es auch zweckmäßig sein, zusätzlich im Grund, das heißt, in der Nähe der Austrittsöffnung des Luftleittrichters LT, ein in Richtung der Sammelkammer SR abstehendes Eingriffschutzelement ES vorzusehen. Dieses ist vorzugsweise konusförmig gewölbt ausgebildet. Es weist insbesondere einen Rippenkörper mit Lücken zum Hindurchlassen des Luftstroms LF auf. Dieser Rippenkörper ist gegenläufig zur Verjüngung des Eintrittskanals des Luftleittrichters LT ausgerichtet. Insbesondere weist er ebenfalls eine Trichterform auf, die sich in Richtung auf die Sammelkammer SR hin aufweitet. Dadurch läßt sich ebenfalls eine Vergrößerung der Eintrittsfläche für den Luftstrom LF erzielen. Ein unerwünschter Druckverlust des Luftstroms LF beim Übergang von der Sammelkammer SR zu den Saugmitteln GB, MO ist somit weitgehend vermieden. Durch dieses rippenförmige Eingriffschutzelement ES wird der Bediener vor einem unzulässigen Hineinlangen in das Gebläse abgehalten, so daß zum Beispiel Handverletzungen durch die rotierenden Gebläseblätter weitgehend vermieden sind. Durch die spezielle Trichterform des als Motorschutzgitter wirkenden Eingriffschutzelements ES kann in vorteilhafter Weise der freie Luftquerschnitt zwischen den einzelnen Rippen größtmöglich ausgeführt werden, und somit eine relativ geringe Behinderung des Luftstroms trotz dieser zusätzlichen Schutzmaßnahme erreicht werden.Optionally, it may also be expedient, in addition to the bottom, that is, in the vicinity of the outlet opening of the Luftleittrichters LT, to provide a protruding in the direction of the collecting chamber SR engagement protection element ES. This is preferably formed curved conical. In particular, it has a rib body with gaps for passing the air flow LF. This fin body is oriented in opposite directions to the taper of the inlet channel of the Luftleittrichters LT. In particular, it also has a funnel shape that widens in the direction of the collection chamber SR. As a result, an increase in the entrance area for the air flow LF can likewise be achieved. An undesirable pressure loss of the air flow LF during the transition from the collecting chamber SR to the suction means GB, MO is thus largely avoided. By this rib-shaped engagement protection element ES, the operator is prevented from entering the fan unacceptably into the fan, so that, for example, hand injuries caused by the rotating fan blades are largely avoided. As a result of the special funnel shape of the engagement protection element ES acting as a motor protection grid, the free air cross section between the individual ribs can advantageously be made as large as possible, and thus a relatively small obstruction of the air flow can be achieved despite this additional protective measure.
Zusammenfassend betrachtet ist es also zweckmäßig, aus Sicherheitsgründen in der Trichtermitte des Luftleittrichters LT, das heißt zur Öffnung zum Gebläse hin, Schutzrippen in Form eines domartigen, in Richtung der Sammelkammer SR abstehenden Eingriffsschutzelements ES vorzusehen. Neben der sich in Richtung der Sammelkammer SR domartig aufweitenden Form des Eingriffsschutzelements ES können gegebenenfalls auch anders geformte Rippenkörper ebenfalls eine Sicherheitsfunktion erfüllen.In summary, it is therefore expedient, for reasons of safety, to provide protective ribs in the form of a dome-like engagement protection element ES projecting in the direction of the collecting chamber SR in the middle of the funnel of the air-guiding funnel LT, that is to say towards the opening towards the fan. In addition to the dome-widening shape of the engagement protection element ES in the direction of the collection chamber SR, differently shaped ribbed bodies may optionally also fulfill a safety function.
Zweckmäßigerweise steht das domartige Eingriffsschutzelement ES in Richtung der Sammelkammer SR lediglicht so weit ab, daß seine Außenkontur bündig mit der Eintrittsfläche RE des Luftleittrichters LT abschließt. Dadurch kann in vorteilhafter Weise zusätzlich mindestens ein Filterelement FI vor der Eintrittsöffnung des Luftleittrichters LT mittels zweier seitlich von der Eintrittsfläche RE des Luftleittrichters LT angeordneter Stegklemmen SI1, SI2 angebracht werden. Dieses Filterelement FI dient zur weiteren Reinigung der Abluft LF, die aus dem Staubraum SR abgezogen wird. Es kann insbesondere als Pollen- oder Allergikerfilter ausgebildet sein. Ein oder mehrere Filtervliese FIV werden dort vorzugsweise zwischen die beiden Hälften eines heftartigen Haltegitters HF eingeklemmt. Dies ist in der
Die Trennwand TW, der Luftleittrichter LT, und dessen vorgesetztes Eingriffsschutzelement ES sind als einstückiges Bauteil ausgebildet. Diese drei Komponenten als Einzelbauteile zu fertigen und dann mechanisch aneinander zu koppeln , ist nicht erfindungsgemäß.The partition wall TW, the Luftleittrichter LT, and its superior engagement protection element ES are formed as a one-piece component. To manufacture these three components as individual components and then to mechanically couple to one another, is not according to the invention.
Insbesondere kann also der Luftleittrichter fest, das heißt direkt in das Kunststoffgehäuse der Trennwand zwischen dem Staubraum und Motorraum integriert sein. Auf der Motorraumseite wird dann der Motor bzw. das zugehörige Gebläse zweckmäßig über Gummiteile an die Austrittsöffnung des Luftleittrichters angekoppelt und abgedichtet. Gemäß einer weiteren Variante kann der Luftleittrichter gegebenenfalls als Zusatzteil auf dem Motor bzw. die Gebläsehaube gesteckt werden. Die ganze Einheit wird dann über Gummiteile bekannter Art im Gerätekörper angekoppelt und abgedichtet. Bei bisherigen Bauweisen konnte die Saugluft nur um sehr starke Krümmungen aus dem Staubraum in das Gebläse gelangen. Durch den Luftleittrichter wird nun die Luft strömungsgünstig aus dem Staubraum in das Gebläse geführt. Dieser Luftleittrichter wird vorteilhafterweise im Staubraum zur Vergrößerung der Eintrittsfläche als Rechteck ausgeführt. Die Trichterform verläuft dabei vorzugsweise zügig und ohne Kontursprung auf den runden Durchmesser der Gebläseeintrittsöffnung zu. Aus Sicherheitsgründen können in der Trichtermitte (Öffnung zum Gebläse) Schutzrippen angebracht sein. Der Rippenkörper ist dabei zweckmäßigerweise gegenläufig zum Luftleittrichter nach außen in Richtung auf den Staubraum zu trichterförmig ausgebildet. Durch diese spezielle Trichterform des Motorschutzgitters (Rippenkörpers) kann der freie Luftquerschnitt zwischen den einzelnen Rippen größtmöglich ausgeführt bzw. eine relativ geringere Behinderung des Luftstromes erreicht werden. Dadurch ist insgesamt eine Steigerung der Luftleistung und somit eine Erhöhung der Abgabeleistung des jeweiligen Staubsaugers ermöglicht.In particular, therefore, the Luftleittrichter fixed, ie be integrated directly into the plastic housing of the partition between the dust chamber and the engine compartment. On the engine compartment side of the engine or the associated fan is then suitably coupled via rubber parts to the outlet opening of the Luftleittrichters and sealed. According to a further variant of the air duct funnel may be plugged as an additional part on the engine or the fan hood. The whole unit is then coupled via rubber parts of known type in the device body and sealed. In previous designs, the suction air could reach only very strong curvatures from the dust chamber in the blower. Through the air funnel now the air is streamlined out of the dust chamber into the fan. This spoiler funnel is advantageously designed in the dust chamber to increase the entrance surface as a rectangle. The funnel shape preferably runs swiftly and without a contour jump towards the round diameter of the blower inlet opening. For safety reasons, protective ribs may be installed in the funnel center (opening to the fan). The ribbed body is expediently designed to be funnel-shaped in the opposite direction to the air-conducting funnel outward in the direction of the dust space. Due to this special funnel shape of the motor protection grid (ribbed body), the free air cross section between the individual Rippen executed as possible or a relatively lower obstruction of the air flow can be achieved. As a result, an overall increase in air capacity and thus an increase in the output of the respective vacuum cleaner is possible.
