Description

H an d h a b u n g s v o r r i c h t un g H an d h a b u n g s v o r r i c h t un g
Gegenstand der Erfindung sind eine zweistangige Halte- und Handhabungsvorrichtung für Geräte sowie eine Ergänzungsstange zum Anbau an eine einfache Haltestange.The invention relates to a two-tier holding and handling device for devices and a supplementary rod for attachment to a simple handrail.
Ueblicherweise sind Geräte wie z. B. Staubsauger zum Absaugen von Fussböden über einen Saugschlauch mit einem Saugrohr verbunden, an dessen unterem Ende sich die Saugdüse befindet. Die herkömmlichen Konstruktionen haben den Nachteil, dass sie eine gebeugte Körperhaltung erzwingen, was zu rascher Ermüdung und zu körperlichen Schäden führen kann. Denselben Nachteil weisen auch andere an Stangen oder Rohren befestigte Geräte auf, insbesondere solche Geräte, welche direkt am Boden oder in Bodennähe eingesetzt werden, wie z. B. Strassenbesen, Schrubber, Blocher, Boάenwischer, tragbare Motormäher und Rasentrimmer usw.Usually devices such. B. vacuum cleaner for vacuuming floors via a suction hose with a suction pipe, at the lower end of which the suction nozzle is located. The disadvantage of conventional designs is that they force a stooped posture, which can lead to rapid fatigue and physical damage. The same disadvantage also has other devices attached to rods or pipes, in particular those devices which are used directly on the ground or near the ground, such as, for. B. street brooms, scrubbers, blocher, gaiters, portable motor mowers and lawn trimmers etc.
Die Erfindung beseitigt diesen Nachteil. Die erfindungsgemässe Halte- und Hεndhabungsvorrichtung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass sie zwei, vorwiegend in ihrem unteren Bereich beweglich mit einander verbundene Stangen aufweist, wobei sich das Gerät oder der zu handhabende Geräteteil am unteren Ende der ersten Stange befindet. Zur Bedienung hält eine Hand die erste Stange bzw. das Saugrohr und die andere Hand den Haltegriff am oberen Ende der zweiten Stange. Dies führt automatisch zu einer aufrechten Körperhaltung.The invention overcomes this disadvantage. The holding and handling device according to the invention is characterized in that it has two rods, predominantly movably connected to one another in its lower region, the device or the device part to be handled being located at the lower end of the first rod. For operation, one hand holds the first rod or the suction pipe and the other hand holds the handle at the upper end of the second rod. This automatically leads to an upright posture.
Die zweite Stange ist bevorzugt unterhalb der Mitte, insbesondere im unteren Drittel der ersten Stange, bei Staubsaugern bevorzugt seitlich am Saugrohr, befestigt. Die Befestigung kann löslich oder dauerhaft sein, in jedem Fall aber beweglich, z. B. über ein Scharnier, ein Kugelgelenk oder mittels eines elastischen Verbindungselements, z. B. mittels einer achterföπαigen Gummimanschette. Sehr geeignet ist eine Befestigung, die aus zwei elastisch oder beweglich mit einander verbundenen Gummimanschetten besteht, von welchen eine (9) um die erste Stange (1) und die andere (10) über das untere Ende der zweiten Stange (5) gestülpt wird (Fig. 2). Zur Anpassung an verschieden dicke Stangen bzw. Rohre können Adapter (11) mit kleinerem Innendurchmesser vorgesehen werden, die in die Manschette (9) gesteckt werden. Diese kann auch geschlitzt sein, wobei die Befestigung mittels einer Schlauchschelle erfolgen kann. Statt direkt an der ersten Stange kann die zweite Stange auch an dem entsprechenden Gerät beweglich angebracht sein, insbesondere wenn sich dieses am unteren Bereich der ersten Stange befindet. Nützlich ist ferner eine Klemme oder dgl. im oberen Bereich der Stangen, um diese zur Aufbewahrung an einander heften zu können.The second rod is preferably attached below the center, in particular in the lower third of the first rod, preferably laterally on the suction pipe in the case of vacuum cleaners. The attachment can be soluble or permanent, but in any case movable, e.g. B. via a hinge, a ball joint or by means of an elastic connecting element, for. B. by means of a achterföπαigen rubber sleeve. A fastening is very suitable, which consists of two elastically or movably connected rubber sleeves, one (9) of which is put over the first rod (1) and the other (10) over the lower end of the second rod (5) ( Fig. 2). To adapt to rods or tubes of different thicknesses, adapters (11) with a smaller inner diameter can be provided, which are inserted into the sleeve (9). This can also be slotted, and the attachment can be carried out by means of a hose clamp. Instead of directly on the first rod, the second rod can also be movably attached to the corresponding device, in particular if it is located on the lower region of the first rod. A clamp or the like is also useful in the upper region of the rods in order to be able to attach them to one another for storage.
Die Bezeichnung S t an g e umfasst alle Vorrichtungen, welche die stützende Funktion einer Stange übernehmen können, also vorwiegend längs dimensionierte und mehr oder weniger steife Elemente, so insbesondere auch Rohre, Profilschienen usw. Feiner können auch die Geräte selbst Teile der Stange bilden, wie z. B. bei manchen Staubsaugern. Bei schwereren Geräten, z. B. Motormähern, kann die Vorrichtung durch Traggurte ergänzt werden.The designation S t an ge encompasses all devices that can assume the supporting function of a rod, i.e. predominantly longitudinally dimensioned and more or less rigid elements, in particular pipes, profiled rails, etc. The devices themselves can also form parts of the rod, such as e.g. B. in some vacuum cleaners. With heavier devices, e.g. B. motor mowers, the device can be supplemented by risers.
Ein weiterer Teil der Erfindung ist eine Ergänzungsstange gemäss Anspruch 5 zur nachträglichen Umwandlung konventioneller Haltestangen bzw. Staubsaugerrohre in die erfindungsgemässe Vorrichtung.Another part of the invention is a supplementary rod according to claim 5 for the subsequent conversion of conventional handrails or vacuum cleaner tubes into the device according to the invention.
Bei Staubsaugern wird eine weitere Erleichterung der Bedienung durch eine , mindestens in senkrechter Richtung bewegliche Gestaltung des unteren Saugrohrteils errreicht, z. B. durch Einbau eines Schlauchstückes oder eines Gelenks im Saugrohr. Diese Vorrichtung erleichtert das Saugen unter niedrigen Schränken. Der bewegliche Rohrteil sollte genügend lang, mindestens 2o cm, besser mindestens 30 cm lang sein. Hierbei wird mit Vorteil eine Saugdüse verwendet, welche sowohl nach unten als auch nach vorne Säugöffnungen aufweist.In vacuum cleaners, further ease of operation is achieved by a design of the lower suction tube part that is movable at least in the vertical direction, for. B. by installing a piece of hose or a joint in the intake manifold. This device facilitates vacuuming under low cabinets. The movable pipe part should be long enough, at least 20 cm, better at least 30 cm long. In this case, a suction nozzle is advantageously used, which has openings in the mouth both downwards and forwards.
Figur 1 zeigt ein Staubsaugerrohr (1) mit der aufgesteckten Saugdüse(2) und dem Schlauchanschluss (3). Ueber das Kugelgelenk (4) ist es beweglich mit der zweiten Stange (5) verbunden. Bei Nichtgebrauch kann diese in die Spange (7) eingeklemmt werden. Zur Benutzung hält man die Vorrichtung mit je einer Hand bei den Griffen (6) und (8).Figure 1 shows a vacuum cleaner tube (1) with the attached suction nozzle (2) and the hose connection (3). It is movably connected to the second rod (5) via the ball joint (4). When not in use, it can be clamped in the clasp (7). To use it, hold the device with one hand on the handles (6) and (8).
Fig. 2 zeigt eine bewegliche Verbindungsmanschette wie oben beschrieben.Fig. 2 shows a movable connecting sleeve as described above.
Fig. 3 zeigt eine flexible Verbindung des unteren Rohrendes (1) mit der Saugdüse (2) mittels eines Schlauches (12). Die Saugdüse weist nach unten und vorne Saugöffnungen auf. Fig. 3 shows a flexible connection of the lower pipe end (1) with the suction nozzle (2) by means of a hose (12). The suction nozzle has suction openings at the bottom and at the front.
