Abstract

Current ashtrays in motor vehicles are small and devoid of their own emptying facilities and therefore frequently full, particularly in the case of chain smokers. Passengers have to put up with the smell of cold ash and clouds of smoke. In addition, the ashtrays are frequently emptied at motorway service stations and in car parks or even in forests (woods). The use of an ashtray which ensures environmentally friendly disposal of the cold ash, the tobacco residues and nub ends and, at the same time, overcomes the problem of troublesome smoke by means of an electric mini vacuum cleaner which is installed in the engine cavity. The use of the smoke extractor device, driven by the motor of the vacuum cleaner, ensures that the air in the passenger compartment of the vehicle is clean and, at the same time, eliminates dangerous passive smoking.

Description

1. Ständig saubere und aschenfreie Aschenbecher im KFZ1. Constantly clean and ashless ashtrays in the car Das ProblemThe problem

- Die Aschenbecher im KFZ sind ständig voll, besonders bei Kettenrauchern,- The ashtrays in the car are constantly full, especially at Chain smokers,

  • - Belästigung der Mitfahrer durch üblen Geruch, verursacht durch kalte Asche und Tabakreste und Kippen,- nuisance to passengers caused by bad smell through cold ashes and tobacco scraps and tipping,
  • - Häufige, lästige Leerung der Aschenbecher, meist am Straßenrand bzw. am Rastplatz oder auch im Wald, was die Umwelt verunreinigt.- Frequent, annoying emptying of the ashtrays, mostly on Roadside or at the rest area or in the forest, what the Polluted environment.
Die ErfindungThe invention

Die Aschenbecher werden an die Saugrohre eines Mini-Staubsaugers - ähnlich wie Tischstaubsauger - angeschlossen.The ashtrays are attached to the suction pipes of a mini vacuum cleaner - similar to table vacuum cleaner - connected.

Der Mini-Staubsauger ist mit einem feuerfesten Behälter ausge­ rüstet.The mini vacuum cleaner has a fireproof container equips.

Der Saugermotor besitzt 1 Betriebsstufe und wird eingeschaltet durch einen Drehschalter am Aschenbecher. Oder auch durch einen Knopfschalter, der sich automatisch nach ca. 20 Sekunden abschal­ tet.The vacuum motor has 1 operating level and is switched on by a rotary switch on the ashtray. Or by one Button switch that automatically shuts off after approx. 20 seconds tet.

Der Mini-Staubsauger und der feuerfeste Behälter werden im Motor­ raum an leicht zugänglicher Stelle untergebracht.The mini vacuum cleaner and the fireproof container are in the motor room in an easily accessible place.

Der Behälter ist abnehmbar, aus diesem Grund getrennt vom Sauger­ motor. The container is removable, for this reason separate from the vacuum cleaner engine.  

2. Rauchabzugseinrichtung zur Luftreinhaltung im Wageninnenraum2. Smoke extraction device for air pollution control in the car interior Das ProblemThe problem

Für den Beifahrer oder im allgemeinen Wageninsassen ist das Problem Passivrauchen gerade im kleinen Raum zur Qual geworden.The problem is for the passenger or the general passenger Passive smoking has become a pain in the small room.

Die ErfindungThe invention

Einbau einer Rauchabzugseinrichtung am Dachhimmel des Wagens, wohin der Rauch zu steigen pflegt.Installation of a smoke extraction device on the headlining of the car, where the smoke tends to rise.

Der Rauchabzug wird angetrieben vom Staubsaugermotor.The smoke exhaust is driven by the vacuum cleaner motor.

Der Motor besitzt 3 Betriebsstufen um die Saugwirkung entsprechend der Rauchintensität zu erhöhen: Niedrig, Mittel, Hoch.The engine has 3 operating levels according to the suction effect increase smoke intensity: Low, Medium, High.

Der Motor wird durch einen 3-Stufendrehschalter eingeschaltet.The motor is switched on by a 3-step rotary switch.

In diesem Fall besitzt der Staubsaugermotor zwei Abzugsrohre, ein für die Aschenbecher, ein für den Rauchabzug ins Freie.In this case, the vacuum cleaner motor has two exhaust pipes, one for the ashtray, one for the smoke vent outside.

Der Drehschalter wird direkt am Aschenbecher angebracht. Oder in unmittelbarer Nähe.The rotary switch is attached directly to the ashtray. Or close.

Die Verbindungsrohre werden durch die Dachholme geführt.The connecting pipes are led through the roof spars.
