See Fig. 1 again, one group of vacuum cleaner annex 10b as shown in the figure comprises various tool, and wherein the structure of some instrument and purposes are conventional, and some is novel.Conventional instrument comprises one group of telescoping tube 400, flexible hose 402 and floor sweeping head 404, and these all are instrument well-known in the art usually, does not therefore need here these instruments are elaborated.Conventional instrument also comprises the brush tool 408 of crack instrument 406 and type known in this field, this brush tool 408 has the semicircle sleeve portion 410 of rigidity, sleeve portion 410 engages by the inner surface of frictional force with dirt cup assembly 12 inlets 54, shown in Figure 19,19A and 19B.
See Fig. 1 again, for example, use the negative connector 414 of a kind of hollow, convergent to connect telescoping tube 400 and floor sweeping head 404, the size of connector 414 is fit to hold with conventional friction fit the positive link 416 of the convergent of telescoping tube 400 or flexible hose 402.Because it is semicircle that the inlet 54 of dirt cup assembly 12 is generally, so the adapter tool 420 that provides access.Inlet adapter tool 420 is made by rigid plastic material, and comprise positive first end 422 and the second negative end 424, the size of first end 422 is fit to engage with the inner surface of friction fit with inlet 54, and the size of second end 424 is fit to engage with the male end of telescoping tube 400 or flexible hose 402, shown in Figure 19 C and 19D.
Because it is semicircle that the sleeve portion 410 of crack instrument 406 is generally, so provide and have first end that limit to form first negative connector 432 and the tool adapter 430 of second negative connector 434, first negative connector 432 engages with the positive link 416 of friction fit with the convergent of telescoping tube 400 and flexible hose 402, and second negative connector 434 engages with the semicircle rigid casing part 410 of crack instrument 406, shown in Figure 19 E.Brush tool 408 also can be connected use (shown in Figure 19 F) with tool adapter 430, but we find to connect brush tool 408, tool adapter 430 and flexible hose 402 and use uncomfortable.
Therefore, we have invented a kind of adapter 450, brush tool 408 can be flexibly connected on the flexible hose 402, shown in Figure 19 G.Specifically can be referring to Figure 20-22, adapter 450 is made by the flexible material integral body such as polyethylene, and comprises the first pontes 452, second coupling part 454 and flexible part 456.The first pontes 452 is tubuloses, and the madial wall 460 of its size convergent can form sealed engagement by frictional fit with the positive link 416 (Fig. 1) of the convergent of telescoping tube 400 or flexible hose 402.
Second coupling part 454 comprises semicircle opening 464, external seal ridge 466 and interior seal ridge 468, the size of semicircle opening 464 is fit to hold and pass through the sleeve portion 410 (Fig. 1) of frictional fit sealed engagement brush tool 408, external seal ridge 466 forms around the neighboring of second coupling part 454, and interior seal ridge 468 is extended around the inner rim of second coupling part 454.External seal ridge 466 comprises the abuts with wall 476 that is generally vertical, the wall 478 and the rounded top portion 480 of convergent backward, and rounded top portion 480 connects abuts with wall 476 and tapered wall 478.Below further external seal ridge 466 is elaborated.
Interior seal ridge 468 has circular contour, make the periphery that second coupling part 454 can annular sleeve part 410 engage the sleeve portion 410 (Fig. 1) of brush tool 408, thereby improved the sealing characteristics between the sleeve portion 410 and second coupling part 454 and made sleeve portion 410 be easy to insert second coupling part 454 in line line (line-to-line) mode.
Flexible part 456 connects the first pontes 452 and second coupling part 454, and comprises that a plurality of spiral structures 490 and a pair of selection refer to button (detent) 470, select to refer to detain 470 and are arranged between external seal ridge 466 and the spiral structure 490.Spiral structure 490 allows the first pontes 452 and second coupling part 454 to be out of shape in predefined mode or bending in the other side toward each other.The constituent material characteristic of adapter 450 and the geometry of spiral structure 490 (thickness that comprises wall) provide rigidity to a certain degree for flexible part 456, therefore flexible part 456 can be by overflexing under regular service conditions, just can cause flexible part 456 to bend when having only stress level when being applied to the first pontes 452 and second coupling part 454 on to surpass predetermined threshold and surrender (if necessary).Those of ordinary skills understand, in such a way deflection or crooked flexible part 456: shrink spiral structure 490 around the crooked spiral structure 490 of the longitudinal axis of adapter 450 and/or along the longitudinal axis of adapter 450.Preferably, in case the material behavior of spiral structure 490 and geometry make stress eliminate, flexible part 456 is just replied (or approaching) its original shape and structure.When being set, spiral structure should consider number, also to consider large and small diameter ratio, and consider the thickness of wall, thereby under regular service conditions, comprise pushing away bumping against the situation that has side force to produce on the household goods such as furniture, telescoping tube permanent deformation can not occur.Considering under the safety coefficient situation, determined the permanent deformation/flexural property in the described zone of spiral structure part, made it to be lower than at this device and fallen the active force that the vacuum cleaner that falls or will have adapter and a telescoping tube firmly impacts or cause its housing to break when prizing object.Refer to that button 470 settings are positioned at the opposite flank of second coupling part 454, and be configured to engage with thumb and forefinger with vacuum cleaner 10a user.
