Abstract

A grip unit for a suction hose of a vacuum cleaner system defines both air and electrical connections to further components of the system such as a suction pipe, nozzle and the like. The grip unit includes a one-piece insert member which is preassembled and then inserted into a tubular member. The one-piece insert member accommodates all electrical components or accessories and, in the inserted position, this insert member defines a sealed air guide and a channel for the electrical parts. The simplified configuration substantially simplifies assembly and reduces the cost to manufacture the unit.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Griffteil für einen sogenannten Saugschlauch eines Staubsaugers, wobei durch das Griffteil sowohl die Luftverbindung als auch eine elektrische Verbindung mit weiteren Teilen, wie z.B. Saugrohr, Düsen usw. hergestellt wird.The invention relates to a handle part for a so-called suction hose of a vacuum cleaner, whereby both the air connection and an electrical connection with other parts, such as e.g. Suction pipe, nozzles, etc. is manufactured.

Solche Griffteile sind in vielfältiger Ausführung bei nahezu jedem modernen Staubsauger, insbesondere Bodenstaubsauger, zu finden. Dabei sind solche Griffteile so aufgebaut, daß ein Unterteil und ein darauf befestigtes Oberteil das Griffteil bilden. Somit bilden auch Unterteil und Oberteil sowohl eine Luftführung als auch Einbaumöglichkeiten für elektrische Bauelemente.Such handle parts can be found in a variety of designs in almost every modern vacuum cleaner, especially a vacuum cleaner. Such handle parts are constructed so that a lower part and an upper part fastened thereon form the handle part. This means that the lower part and the upper part form both an air duct and installation options for electrical components.

Beim Zusammensetzen derartiger Teile muB somit sorgfältig darauf geachtet werden, daß der Luftführungskanal gut nach außen abgedichtet ist.When assembling such parts, care must be taken to ensure that the air duct is well sealed to the outside.

Dadurch wird die Herstellung erschwert und auch verteuert.This makes production difficult and also more expensive.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es nun, ein Griffteil für die Luftverbindung und gleichzeitig elektrische Verbindung so auszugestalten, daß es einfach herzustellen ist und eine gut gedichtete Leitung der Luft ermöglicht.The object of the invention is now to design a handle part for the air connection and at the same time electrical connection so that it is easy to manufacture and enables a well-sealed conduction of the air.

Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst, wobei weitere Ausgestaltungen den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen sind.According to the invention, the object is achieved by the features of claim 1, further developments being apparent from the subclaims.

Somit wird durch die Erfindung in vorteilhafter Weise ein Griffteil für den Saugschlauch eines Staubsaugers geschaffen, bei welchem durch den geschlossenen und einfachen Aufbau eine gut nach außen abgedichtete Luftführung erreicht ist und die Herstellung wesentlich vereinfacht wird.Thus, the invention advantageously creates a grip part for the suction hose of a vacuum cleaner, in which the closed and simple construction achieves a well-sealed air duct and the manufacture is considerably simplified.

Nachstehend ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung gezeichnet und beschrieben.An exemplary embodiment of the invention is drawn and described below.

Es zeigt:

  • Fig.1 Ein Einschubteil perspektivisch dargestellt,
  • Fig. 2 einen Schnitt durch ein Rohrteil mit eingesetztem Einschubteil.
It shows:
  • 1 shows a slide-in part in perspective,
  • Fig. 2 shows a section through a tubular part with inserted insert.

Die Fig. 1 zeigt das Einschubteil 1 in perspektivischer Darstellung.1 shows the insertion part 1 in a perspective view.

Ein zentraler Ring 2 weist an seiner Vorderkante 3 und Hinterkante 4 je eine umlaufende Dichtlippe 5,6 auf.A central ring 2 has a circumferential sealing lip 5, 6 on its front edge 3 and rear edge 4.

Zu beiden Seiten sind um 180° versetzt Kabelkanäle 7,8 angeordnet.Cable ducts 7,8 are arranged on both sides offset by 180 ° .

Der Kabelkanal 7 trägt an seiner Spitze 9 einen Steckerkörper 10, welcher in den Kabelkanal 7 lose eingelegt ist.The cable duct 7 carries at its tip 9 a plug body 10 which is loosely inserted into the cable duct 7.

Am Steckerkörper 10 sind Litzen 11,12 angeschlagen. Diese sind dann weiter im Kabelkanal 7 geführt, bis sie auf den zentralen Ring 2 treffen. Hier werden sie getrennt auf dem Ring 2 um diesen herumgeführt, um dann im Kabelkanal 8 wieder vereint weitergeführt zu werden bis zu einer mit dem Kabelkanal 8 einstückig geformten Knickschutztülle 13.Strands 11, 12 are attached to the connector body 10. These are then guided in the cable duct 7 until they meet the central ring 2. Here they are guided around the ring 2 separately, in order then to be continued again in the cable duct 8 up to an anti-kink sleeve 13 formed in one piece with the cable duct 8.

In diesem so vorgefertigten Zustand wird das komplette Einschubteil 1 aus Fig. 1 in das Rohrteil 14, wie in Fig. 2 dargestellt, eingeschoben. Somit bildet der zentrale Ring 2 die Luftführung, welche dadurch von den elektrischen Teilen getrennt ist.In this state prefabricated in this way, the complete insert part 1 from FIG. 1 is pushed into the tubular part 14, as shown in FIG. 2. The central ring 2 thus forms the air duct, which is thereby separated from the electrical parts.

Durch die beiden Dichtlippen 5,6 ist die Abdichtung gewährleistet.Sealing is ensured by the two sealing lips 5, 6.

Somit ist die Herstellung stark vereinfacht, da das Einschubteil 1 vormontiert werden kann. Dieses wird dann lediglich in das Rohrteil 14 eingeschoben und befestigt.The manufacture is thus greatly simplified since the insert part 1 can be preassembled. This is then simply inserted and fastened into the tubular part 14.

Claims (8)

1. A gripping member for a so-called suction tube of a vacuum cleaner, both the air connection and an electrical connection with additional parts such as a suction pipe, nozzles, etc. being provided by the gripping member, characterised in that the gripping member is formed from an integral tube part (14), into which an insertion member (1) is inserted, which receives all the electrical components or forms said components itself and on account of its structural design forms a sealed air passage and a closed duct (7, 8) for the electrical parts in its inserted state.
2. A gripping member according to claim 1, characterised in that the introduction of the electrical wiring or flexible wires (11, 12) is effected over and between two parallel circumferential sealing lips (5, 6).
