Definitions

  • the invention relates to a vacuum cleaner with a one-piece push button according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a vacuum cleaner is known from DE-OS 19 26 111.
  • the push button consists of an elastic strip, at the two ends of which the actuation points for the electrical switch and the winding lock of the cable drum are provided.
  • the strip In order to ensure a sufficient actuation path when the elastic strip is not subjected to excessive stress, the strip must be measured accordingly long, so that the pushbutton takes up a relatively large amount of space.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a vacuum cleaner with a one-piece push button, in which the push button takes up much less space and is not exposed to elastic tension.
  • the object is achieved according to the invention by the features specified in the characterizing part of claim 1.
  • the arrangement and design of the push button described allows the same to be tilted around each long side, so that the other long side can be adjusted by a sufficient actuation path. Since the push button can rotate freely about the respective tilt axis, there is no elastic tension in the material of the push button. The corresponding cross-locking of the push button ensures that only one actuation process is triggered at a time.
  • a vacuum cleaner housing on the top of which a push button 3 is arranged toward the rear end 2.
  • the pushbutton 3 closes with its one longitudinal side 4, which runs parallel to the tilting axes of the pushbutton 3, flush with the housing edge 2a at the rear end 2 of the vacuum cleaner housing 1.
  • a support tab 5 is formed as a point of attack for a spring clip 6.
  • the spring clip 6 With its two ends 6a and 6b, the spring clip 6 is clamped on supports 7 fixed to the housing in relation to the point of attack of the support bracket 5 in such a way that it presses the pushbutton 3 both against the actuation points 10 and 11 indicated by arrows 8 and 9 and on the two opposing actuation points 10 and 11 the push button 3 exertable actuating force and a transversely acting force.
  • the transverse force is directed to the left.
  • the two force components of the spring clip 6 are shown as arrows 12 and 13.
  • the pushbutton 3 Against the force component 13 acting in the transverse direction, the pushbutton 3 is supported with its other longitudinal side 14 on a boundary edge 16 of a recess 15 provided on the vacuum cleaner housing 1 for receiving the pushbutton 3.
  • Another long side 14 is formed on a wall part 17 pointing in the actuating direction. Both on this wall part 17 and on one longitudinal side 4 of the push button 3, a bar 18 or 19 forming a stop is formed, which points in the direction of the transverse force component 13.
  • the respective strip 18 or 19 engages under a counter-stop 20 or 21 fixed to the housing, the counter-stop 20 fixed to the housing being formed separately on the vacuum cleaner housing and the underside of the upper housing wall of the vacuum cleaner housing 1 serving as counter-stop 21.
  • a rib 23 is formed on an intermediate wall 22 of the vacuum cleaner housing 1.
  • the rib 23 is arranged so that it lies with its cross-sectional profile next to the inside 17a of the wall part 17 of the push button 3.
  • the upper edge 23a of the rib 23 forms a first blocking element and the rib side 23b facing the wall part 17 forms a second blocking member fixed to the housing.
  • Correspondingly cooperating blocking elements are provided on the pushbutton 3 with these blocking elements fixed to the housing.
  • the underside 19a of the strip 19 forms a first and the inside 17a of the wall part 17 a second blocking member of the push button 3.
  • a bevel 24 is also formed, which cooperates with a counter bevel 25 provided on the counter stop 20 fixed to the housing.
  • a pressure force is exerted on one of the actuation points 10 or 11, as indicated by the arrows 8 and 9.
  • the push button 3 on this side is pressed downward against the force component 12 of the spring clip 6.
  • the wall part 17 slides past the rib side 23b.
  • Characterized the push button 3 is locked against transverse displacement, so that the bevel 24 cannot slide over the counter bevel 25.
  • the push button 3 is thus locked on this actuation side in its height.
  • the underside 19a of the strip 19 strikes the switch plunger 26 of a switch 27 arranged in the circuit of the vacuum cleaner during the further movement of the pushbutton 3 and presses it downward, so that a switching operation is triggered.
  • the vacuum cleaner is switched on or off in this way.
  • the pushbutton 3 is returned to the starting position shown in FIG. 2 by the spring clip 6, the two strips 18 and 19 serving as stops each being attached to the corresponding counter stop 20 or 21 come to the plant.
