Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Staubsauger mit ei­nem Staubsaugergehäuse, in welchem ein Staubraum und ein mit dem Staubraum in Verbindung stehender Motorraum angeordnet sind, und mit an der Unterseite des Gehäuses angebrachten Laufrollen, mit denen der Sraubsauger über die zu saugende Fläche bewegt wird.The present invention relates to a vacuum cleaner with a vacuum cleaner housing, in which a dust chamber and an engine compartment communicating with the dust chamber are arranged, and with rollers attached to the underside of the housing, with which the vacuum cleaner is moved over the surface to be vacuumed.

Staubsauger gemäß dem Oberbegriff werden in aller Regel mit einer großen Anzahl von Zubehörteilen wie Saugdüsen, Verlän­gerungsrohren und dgl. ausgeliefert. Zu diesem Zweck sind Zu­behörräume vorgesehen, die üblicherweise an der Oberseite des Staubsaugers angeordnet sind, so daß sie auch im Betrieb großflächig geöffnet werden können, um den Zugriff auch zu größeren Zubehörteilen zu gewährleisten. Diese Vorrichtungen weisen den Nachteil auf, daß sie sich im allgemeinen nicht für kleinere Reserveteile, wie Staubbeutel, Filter und die Bedienungsanleitung eignen. Zudem ist die Menge von möglichst griffbereit zu haltenden Zubehörteilen und Reserveteilen so groß geworden, daß die vorgenannten Vorrichtungen kaum mehr dafür ausreichen. Ein besonderer Nachteil liegt darin, daß nach wie vor die Bedienungsanleitung wie auch Reserven von Verbrauchsmitteln wie Staubbeutel, Feinfilter und dgl. an un­terschiedlichen Orten außerhalb des Staubsaugers und meist nicht in der Nähe der zu saugenden Flächen aufbewahrt werden.Vacuum cleaners according to the generic term are usually delivered with a large number of accessories such as suction nozzles, extension tubes and the like. For this purpose, accessory rooms are provided, which are usually arranged on the top of the vacuum cleaner, so that they can be opened over a large area during operation to ensure access to larger accessories. These devices have the disadvantage that they are generally not suitable for smaller spare parts, such as dust bags, filters and the operating instructions. In addition, the amount of accessories and spare parts to be kept within reach has become so large that the aforementioned devices are hardly sufficient for them. A particular disadvantage is that the operating instructions as well as reserves of consumables such as dust bags, fine filters and the like are still kept at different locations outside the vacuum cleaner and mostly not near the surfaces to be vacuumed.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt somit die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Staubsauger der eingangs genannten Art dahingehend zu verbessern, daß auch Bedienungsanleitungen und Reserven von Verbrauchsmitteln und dgl. am Staubsauger mitgeführt werden können.The present invention is therefore based on the object of improving a vacuum cleaner of the type mentioned in such a way that operating instructions and reserves of consumables and the like can also be carried on the vacuum cleaner.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Hauptsanspruchs gelöst. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.This problem is solved by the characterizing features of the main claim. Further advantageous embodiments result from the subclaims.

Erfindungsgemäß ist an der Unterseite des Staubsaugergehäuses ein sich im Bereich des Staubraumes erstreckendes Fach zur Aufnahme von im wesentlichen Reserveteilen angeordnet. Dieses Fach ist in vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Er­findung einstückig als Vertiefung in der Gehäuseunterseite ausgebildet.According to the invention, on the underside of the vacuum cleaner housing, a compartment extending in the area of the dust space for accommodating essentially spare parts is arranged. In an advantageous embodiment of the present invention, this compartment is formed in one piece as a depression in the underside of the housing.

In vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung ist das Fach durch einen Dek­kel verschließbar, welcher sich im geschlossenen Zustand flä­chenbündig dem Gehäuseboden anpaßt. Das Fach erstreckt sich im wesentlichen über die gesamte Fläche des Staubraumes, wo­bei die Bereiche, in denen Räder oder Laufrollen angebracht sind, ausgespart werden. In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung werden die Räder oder Laufrollen im Bereich der Angriffszonen der senkrechten Seitenwände an­geordnet. Dies hat den Vorteil, daß die Kräfte in die senk­rechten Wandbereiche in die Rollen eingeleitet werden können.In an advantageous embodiment, the compartment can be closed by a cover which, when closed, adapts flush to the housing base. The compartment extends essentially over the entire area of the dust space, the areas in which wheels or rollers are attached are left out. In an advantageous embodiment of the present invention, the wheels or rollers are arranged in the area of the attack zones of the vertical side walls. This has the advantage that the forces can be introduced into the rollers in the vertical wall areas.

Der Deckel ist in vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung mittels Gelen­ken im Motorraumbereich des Staubsaugerbodens aufgehängt. Diese Gelenke weisen eine Raststellung bei einer Öffnungslage von ca. 40° auf. Durch Überdrücken der Öffnungslage trennen sich die Gelenke, und der Deckel kann ganz von dem Staubsau­ger entfernt werden. An seinem Rand kann der Deckel wenig­stens in seinem unteren Bereich einen Steg aufweisen, der sich senkrecht zur Deckelfläche erstreckt und in das Fach hineinragt. Hierdurch wird gewährleistet, daß flache Teile wie Microfilter und Beschreibungen nicht aus dem Öffnungs­spalt herausfallen können, wenn der Deckel ausgeklappt wird.In an advantageous embodiment, the cover is suspended by means of joints in the engine compartment area of the vacuum cleaner base. These joints have a locking position with an open position of approximately 40 °. Pressing over the opening position separates the joints and the lid can be removed completely from the vacuum cleaner. At its edge, the lid can have, at least in its lower area, a web that extends perpendicular to the lid surface and projects into the compartment. This ensures that flat parts such as microfilters and descriptions cannot fall out of the opening gap when the lid is opened.

In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der vorliegen­den Erfindung weist der Deckel im Griffbereich des Staubsau­gers einen Verschluß auf. Dieser Verschluß ist nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ein Tastverschluß. Dabei rastet eine am Deckel befindliche federnde Zunge in eine an der Unterseite des Griffbereichs befindliche Aussparung ein.In a further advantageous embodiment of the present invention, the cover has a closure in the grip area of the vacuum cleaner. According to a further advantageous embodiment, this closure is a key closure. A resilient tongue located on the cover snaps into a recess located on the underside of the grip area.

Zum Öffnen des Deckels wird der Staubsauger zweckmäßigerweise senkrecht gestellt und mit einem Finger auf die federnde Zunge gedrückt, welche sich in Druckrichtung von der Ausspa­rung weg bewegt und den Deckel freigibt.To open the lid, the vacuum cleaner is expediently placed vertically and pressed with a finger onto the resilient tongue, which moves away from the recess in the pressure direction and releases the lid.

Zur Stabilisierung des Deckels sind an diesem längsverlau­fende Rippen angeordnet. In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung sind diese Rippen an der Außen­seite des Deckels angeordnet, so daß Kufen gebildet sind. Diese dienen als Gleitkufen, wenn beispielsweise eine Schwelle mit den vorderen Rädern überfahren wird und der Ge­häusebogen auf der Schwelle aufsetzt. In einer weiteren vor­teilhaften Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung sind diese Kufen über den Deckel hinaus zur Motorseite des Gehäu­ses verlängert. An der Gelenkseite des Deckels weisen diese Kufen eine Trennstelle auf.To stabilize the cover, longitudinal ribs are arranged on it. In an advantageous embodiment of the present invention, these ribs are arranged on the outside of the cover, so that skids are formed. These serve as skids if, for example, a threshold is run over with the front wheels and the housing arch touches the threshold. In a further advantageous embodiment of the present invention, these runners are extended beyond the cover to the motor side of the housing. These runners have a separation point on the hinge side of the lid.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfin­dung kann der Deckel wenigstens einen Doppelboden aufweisen, so daß sich das eigentliche Aufnahmefach für die Reserveteile im Deckel befindet und somit mit diesem geöffnet und abgenom­men werden kann.In an advantageous embodiment of the present invention, the lid can have at least one raised floor, so that the actual storage compartment for the reserve parts is located in the lid and can thus be opened and removed with it.

Weitere Merkmale, Einzelheiten und Vorteile der Erfindung er­geben sich aus nachfolgenden Beschreibung von bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispielen anhand der Zeichnung. Dabei zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 eine schematische Ansicht der Unterseite eines erfindungsgemäßen Staubsaugers in einer bevorzug­ten Ausführungsform,
  • Fig. 2 eine schematische Seitenansicht eines erfindungs­gemäßen Staubsaugers mit geöffnetem Deckel.
Further features, details and advantages of the invention result from the following description of preferred exemplary embodiments with reference to the drawing. Show:
  • 1 is a schematic view of the underside of a vacuum cleaner according to the invention in a preferred embodiment,
  • Fig. 2 is a schematic side view of a vacuum cleaner according to the invention with the lid open.

In Fig. 1 ist an der Unterseite des erfindungsgemäßen Staub­saugergehäuses der Motorraumbereich 2 und der Staubraumbe­reich 2a zu erkennen. Der Staubraumbereich 2a ist von dem Deckel abgedeckt, welcher der geometrischen Konfiguration des Bodens des Staubsaugergehäuses 1 angepaßt ist. Im Bereich der Angriffszonen der senkrechten Wände sind die Laufrollen 4 an­gebracht und der Deckel 3 weist an diesen Stellen Aussparun­gen auf. Im Griffbereich 6 des Staubsaugers weist der Deckel 3 einen Verschluß 7 auf, der nach Aufstellung des Staubsau­gers einfach zu erreichen ist. Der Deckel 3 ist mittels Ge­lenken 8 im Motorraumbereich 2 aufgehängt. In einem nicht ge­zeigten Ausführungsbeispiel können dafür zwei symmetrisch zur Mittelachse angeordnete Gelenke vorgesehen sein.1 shows the engine compartment area 2 and the dust compartment area 2a on the underside of the vacuum cleaner housing according to the invention. The dust chamber area 2a is covered by the cover, which corresponds to the geometric configuration of the Bottom of the vacuum cleaner housing 1 is adapted. The rollers 4 are attached in the area of the attack zones of the vertical walls and the cover 3 has cutouts at these points. In the grip area 6 of the vacuum cleaner, the lid 3 has a closure 7 which can be easily reached after the vacuum cleaner has been installed. The cover 3 is suspended by means of joints 8 in the engine compartment area 2. In an embodiment not shown, two joints arranged symmetrically to the central axis can be provided for this.

Der Deckel 3 ist durch Rippen 5 verstärkt, die sich auf den Motorraumbereich 2 des Gehäuses 1 fortsetzen und als Gleitku­fen 5 dienen.The cover 3 is reinforced by ribs 5, which continue on the engine compartment area 2 of the housing 1 and serve as skids 5.

Zum Öffnen des Deckels 3 wird der Staubsauger in die gezeigte Position gebracht, wobei er im allgemeinen am Griffteil 6 an­gefaßt wird. Somit ist es einfach, den Verschluß 7 zu bedie­nen. In Fig. 2 ist die L-förmige federnde Zunge 9, welche am Deckel angebracht ist, zu erkennen. Diese federnde Zunge 9 umfaßt in geschlossenem Zustand des Deckels 3 eine Aussparung im Griffbereich der Gehäuseunterseite. Durch Druck eines Fin­gers wird diese federnde Zunge von der Aussparung wegge­drückt, so daß der Deckel 3 geöffnet werden kann. Die Gelenke 8 haben eine Raststellung, so daß der Deckel 3 nach Öffnung in dieser Raststellung verbleibt. Der Deckel 3 ist mit einem Doppelboden ausgestattet, so daß er zur Aufnahme von Reserve­teilen wie Ersatzstaubbeutel, Feinfilter, Bedienungsanleitung und dgl. geeignet ist. Wird die Öffnungslage in der Raststel­lung der Gelenke überdrückt, so trennen sich die Gelenke und der Deckel kann vollständig von dem Gehäuse 1 des Staubsau­gers entfernt werden.To open the lid 3, the vacuum cleaner is brought into the position shown, wherein it is generally handled on the handle part 6. Thus, it is easy to operate the shutter 7. In Fig. 2 the L-shaped resilient tongue 9, which is attached to the lid, can be seen. In the closed state of the cover 3, this resilient tongue 9 comprises a recess in the grip area on the underside of the housing. By pressing a finger, this resilient tongue is pushed away from the recess so that the lid 3 can be opened. The joints 8 have a locking position so that the cover 3 remains in this locking position after opening. The lid 3 is equipped with a raised floor, so that it is suitable for receiving spare parts such as replacement dust bags, fine filters, operating instructions and the like. If the opening position is overpressed in the locking position of the joints, the joints separate and the cover can be completely removed from the housing 1 of the vacuum cleaner.
