Definitions

  • the invention relates to a telescopic vacuum cleaner suction tube, as has become known according to the preamble of claim 1 by US-PS 32 44 437.
  • the known vacuum cleaner suction tube is felt to be disadvantageous because a separately riveted, provided with slot-like locking recesses locking bar requires a large amount of production.
  • the known vacuum cleaner suction pipe has on the outside on the outer pipe a spring clip with a hook-shaped cut-out, projecting latching tongue as a latching body.
  • the hook-shaped latching tongue extends through the outer tube wall and can thus engage in the slots in the latching strip. Every time the length of the vacuum cleaner suction tube changes, i.e. Shortened or lengthened, an upwardly bent operating end of the spring clip must be raised to release the hook-shaped locking body from the respective locking recess. The operation of the known vacuum cleaner suction tube is perceived as in need of improvement.
  • the outer tube of the known vacuum cleaner suction tube which has a noticeably larger diameter than the inner tube, has a slant in the region of its point of overlap with the inner tube inwardly projecting ring apron with a window-like notch, which takes up the cross section of the riveted locking bar. Locking bar and window-like notch cause an axially extending positive locking to prevent relative rotation between the outer and inner tube.
  • This design of the anti-twist device further increases the already high technical manufacturing effort.
  • the object of the invention is to create a telescopic vacuum cleaner suction pipe that is simpler both in terms of production technology and in terms of operation. This object is achieved in accordance with the characterizing part of patent claim 1.
  • the locking bar which extends only over a relatively small circumferential area of the inner tube, is formed with its locking recesses in the wall of the inner tube.
  • the inner tube is a sheet steel tube
  • the locking bar can be stamped in a simple manner.
  • the inner tube is provided with an axial groove or an axial spring which is molded or impressed into the wall and which cooperate with a correlating configuration (axial spring or axial groove) of the outer tube and thus one easy to manufacture fuse against relative rotation.
  • DE-OS 31 02 898 it is only known to provide threaded ribs which extend over the entire circumference in the end region of a vacuum cleaner inner tube and which cannot be compared with the catches according to the invention.
  • the threaded ribs which are provided over a partial circumference of an outer tube of an obviously previously used telescopic vacuum cleaner suction tube and which serve for a clamping lock by means of a clamping sleeve are comparable with the arrangement according to the invention. It is also known (DE-AS 26 18 065 see FIG. 6, item 24) to provide an outer tube of a telescopic vacuum cleaner suction tube with an inwardly projecting axial rib, but this known axial rib is not used to prevent rotation between the inside - And outer tube, but rather the rotational driving of a sprag.
  • the latching body according to the invention forms a separate component that is independent of the hold-down device.
  • the hold-down device is designed as a control body, which either offers a free or escape space for the latching body when the latching body is to disengage from the respective latching recess or which holds the latching body in a certain latching recess in the event of locking.
  • the latching body according to the invention is therefore independent in its movement when the hold-down device is unlocked.
  • a telescopic vacuum cleaner suction tube is generally designated by the reference number 10.
  • the suction pipe has an inside tube 11 and an outer tube 12.
  • the outer tube 12 forms a sleeve-like widening 13.
  • a guide body 15 made of plastic with an essentially circular cross section is arranged inside the overall space designated by 14 between the inner tube outer jacket surface 34 and the outer tube inner jacket surface 33.
  • a guide body 15 Received in the guide body 15 is in each case a slide 16 (FIGS. 1 and 2,) 16a, (FIG. 3) which is translationally movable along the pipe longitudinal axis x (FIG. 3) and a slide 16b which is rotatable about the pipe longitudinal axis x along the circumferential direction u (FIGS. 4 and 5 ).
  • Each slide 16, 16a, 16b passes through the outer tube wall 13 with an actuating shoulder 17 within a recess 18.
  • Each actuating shoulder 17 in turn carries a handle 19.
  • Each inner tube 11 has a locking bar 20 with locking recesses 21.
  • the inner tube 11 and outer tube 12 are made of sheet steel.
  • the locking bar 20 with the locking recesses 21 is stamped into the inner tube wall 22 as a relatively narrow strip-like strip.
  • the embossing is in this case such that each latching recess 21 is distanced from the respectively adjacent latching recess 21 via an undeformed circular cylindrical tube wall region 23.
  • Each latching recess 21 has an acute-angled angle to the tube on one axial end side Longitudinal axis x extending sliding flank 24 for a roller-like locking body 25 (FIGS. 1 and 2), for a web-like locking body 25a (FIG. 3) or for a ball locking body 25b (FIGS. 4 and 5).
  • each locking recess 21 On the other axial end side of each locking recess 21, a locking or inhibiting flank 26 is formed with a relatively small radius of curvature.
  • each latching recess 21 on its axial end side facing the suction attachment (the suction attachment is not shown, but indicated with an S and an arrow), such as a suction brush or suction nozzle, has the curved locking or inhibiting flank 26.
  • the respective longitudinal axes of the latching recesses 21 (FIGS. 1-3) intended for elongated latching bodies 25, 25a extend secantially to the body of the inner tube 11, the cross section of which is circular-cylindrical.
  • the latching recesses 21 corresponding to FIGS. 4 and 5 are, at least in cross section according to FIG. 5, essentially spherical in shape, while the associated latching body 25b itself - as already mentioned - has a spherical shape.
  • the slider 16, 16a, 16b opens the connection to the free space 14, so that the latching body 25, 25a, 25b is able to slide out of the latching recess 21 (ie to decouple the two telescopic tubes 11, 12) as soon as a relative movement of the two telescopic tubes 11, 12 to one another is initiated.
  • the latching body 25, 25a, 25b has a relatively small mass, so that a smooth-running latching process, that is to say an easy-to-move displaceability of the two tubes 11, 12, is ensured.
  • roller-shaped latching body 25 is located in a latching recess 21 and is held down there by means of a locking lug 27 of the slide 16.
  • the locking or inhibiting flanks 26 serve, on the one hand, for a latching mark that can be felt or heard during the adjustment movement and, on the other hand, offer additional securing of the locking position (FIGS. 1, 3 to 5) also in the event that the pressure force in the direction d ( strong impact of the suction attachment S against an obstacle during suction work) should be relatively large. It is also the case in the embodiment according to FIG. 1 that when a relatively large force occurs in the direction d, an initial rolling movement of the roller body 25 causes a movement of the locking lug 27 in the direction z or g, that is to say an additional securing of the locking position. To this extent, the roller body 25 has approximately the function of a pinion rolling between two racks.
  • each latching body 25, 25a, 25b is carried along or positioned approximately in the manner of a ball cage by means of an opening 29 on the slide side.
  • the function is similar to that in the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the web-like latching body 25a is part of a rectangular bracket or frame made of wire, designated overall by 30.
  • the transverse web 31 of the bracket 30 facing away from the locking web 25a is accommodated within an elongated hole 32 on the slide side. It is conceivable that the elongated hole 32 allows the slide 16a to be displaced in the direction o, so that the locking lug 27 can establish the access of the latching body 25a to the free space 14 in order to release the locking state, as shown in FIG. 3.
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 The function of the embodiment according to FIGS. 4 and 5 is fundamentally comparable to the embodiments according to FIGS. 1 to 3, with the difference that the actuation of the slide 16b is not translatory in the direction of the longitudinal pipe thing x, but rather rotatory about the longitudinal pipe axis x around in accordance with the arrows in Fig. 5 o in the opening direction and g in the closing direction. Even with this out management example (Fig. 5), a locking lug 27 can be seen.
  • the arrangement 16, 16a, 16b, 25, 25a, 25b could be replaced by a ball catch known per se.
  • the handle 19 could be retained or even omitted.
  • the strength of the detent force would have to be varied by the restoring force of a ball detent spring, not shown, which would represent the hold-down device in this case.
  • the bracket 30 could be guided with its two longitudinal legs within the free space 14 between the outer tube inner jacket surface 33 and the inner tube outer jacket surface 34 within the guide body 15 and against the restoring force of one or two springs (hold-down device), not shown, can be disengaged from the latching recesses 21.
  • the latching body 25a and the correlating latching recesses 21 would not be arranged on the lower side of the inner tube 11, as shown in FIG.
  • the bead-like axial groove 35 would then - not as shown in Fig. 3 - provided below, but rather diametrically opposite at the top.
  • An anti-rotation device between the inner tube 11 and outer tube 12 comes about as follows: The on Outer tube 12 within the widening 13 in a manner not shown in more detail (for example by gluing), rotationally secured guide body 15 engages (see FIG. 5) with an axial spring 36 in the axial longitudinal bead 35 provided on the inner tube side. At the same time, an air seal generating incorrect air is achieved here.
  • the arrangement is otherwise such that the front outer region of the guide body 15 engages over an undeformed tube region 23 when the latching bodies 25, 25a, 25b are located in a latching recess 21.
  • the invention also provides for axial groove 35 and latching recesses 21 to be superimposed.
  • the spherical locking recesses 21 according to FIGS. 4 and 5 could be embossed in the deepest of an axial groove 35 offset circumferentially by 180 ° (the spring 36 would then also be offset).
