Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Staubfilterbeutel für einen Staubsauger mit einer Halteplatte, welche eine dichtungsverschlossene Öffnung für einen Rohrstutzen des Ansaugteils eines Staubsaugers aufweist, wobei die Öffnung von außen mit einer gesonderten Verschlußlasche, die einen Einsteckbereich aufweist, verschließbar ist.The invention relates to a dust filter bag for a vacuum cleaner with a holding plate which has a seal-closed opening for a pipe socket of the suction part of a vacuum cleaner, the opening being closable from the outside with a separate closure flap which has an insertion area.

Derartige Staubfilterbeutel sind bereits in verschiedener Ausgestaltung bekanntgeworden. Es wird hierzu hingewiesen auf das deutsche Gebrauchtsmuster 78 32 780 sowie auf das deutsche Gebrauchsmuster 90 01 528.Dust filter bags of this type have already become known in various configurations. Attention is drawn to the German utility model 78 32 780 and the German utility model 90 01 528.

Gewöhnlich besitzen derartige Staubfilterbeutel eine versteifte obere Halteplatte, beispielsweise aus einem dickeren Pappmaterial, während der Staubfilterbeutel selbst gewöhnlich aus einem tuchartigen Zellstoffmaterial besteht. Mittels der Halteplatte ist der Staubfilterbeutel in das Gerät einsetzbar und an den erwähnten Rohrstutzen anschließbar. Die Öffnung des Staubfilterbeutels ist gewöhnlich mit einer Dichtung verschlossen, die aus einem von unten an der Öffnung anliegenden kreisförmigen Gummiteil besteht. Dieses liegt mit einer gewissen Vorspannung von innen an der Öffnung an. Bei in den Staubsauger eingesetztem Staubfilterbeutel ist diese Dichtung durch den Rohrstutzen zwangsweise geöffnet. Bei Abnahme des Staubfilterbeutels soll sich die Dichtung wieder von innen an die Öffnung anlegen. Tatsächlich tritt dies aber insbesondere bei gefülltem Staubfilterbeutel nicht mit der gewünschten Zuverlässigkeit ein. Wenn ein prallgefüllter Staubfilterbeutel aus dem Staubsauger entnommen wird, kann durch die Manipulation sehr schnell Staub aus dem Inneren des Staubfilterbeutels durch die Öffnung wieder austreten, in Form von Staubwolken, was als sehr unangenehm empfunden wird. Um hier Abhilfe zu schaffen, ist bereits in dem eingangs genannten Stand der Technik vorgeschlagen worden, eine gesonderte Verschlußlasche vorzusehen, mit der bei Entnahme des Staubfilterbeutels von außen die Öffnung verschlossen werden kann. Die bekannte Verschlußlasche ist jedoch noch nicht in jeder Hinsicht zufriedenstellend. Einerseits wird sie mitunter als störend bei der Handhabe eines neuen Staubfilterbeutels empfunden, insbesondere bei dessen Einsetzen, andererseits wird die Verschlußwirkung dieser Verschlußlasche auch noch nicht in jedem Fall als ausreichend angesehen.Such dust filter bags usually have a stiffened upper holding plate, for example made of a thicker cardboard material, while the dust filter bag itself usually consists of a cloth-like cellulose material. By means of the holding plate, the dust filter bag can be inserted into the device and connected to the pipe socket mentioned. The opening of the dust filter bag is usually closed with a seal which consists of a circular rubber part which bears against the opening from below. This lies against the opening with a certain preload from the inside. When the dust filter bag is inserted in the vacuum cleaner, this seal is forcibly opened by the pipe socket. When the dust filter bag is removed, the seal should come into contact with the opening from the inside. In fact, this does not occur with the desired reliability, especially when the dust filter bag is full. If a bulky dust filter bag is removed from the vacuum cleaner, manipulation can cause dust to get out of the inside of the dust filter bag very quickly emerge again through the opening in the form of dust clouds, which is perceived as very unpleasant. In order to remedy this, it has already been proposed in the prior art mentioned at the outset to provide a separate closure flap with which the opening can be closed from the outside when the dust filter bag is removed. However, the known closure tab is still not satisfactory in every respect. On the one hand, it is sometimes found to be annoying when handling a new dust filter bag, especially when it is being inserted, on the other hand, the sealing effect of this sealing tab is not always considered sufficient.

Ausgehend von dem eingangs erwähnten Stand der Technik stellt sich der Erfindung die Aufgabe, einen Staubfilterbeutel so auszugestalten und weiterzubilden, daß eine gebrauchsgünstigere Handhabung insbesondere der Verschlußlasche gegeben ist.On the basis of the prior art mentioned at the outset, the object of the invention is to design and develop a dust filter bag in such a way that the closure flap is more convenient to use, in particular.

Diese Aufgabe ist bei der im Anspruch 1 angegebenen Erfindung gelöst. Hierbei ist zunächst darauf abgestellt, daß die Verschlußlasche mit der Halteplatte in ihrer Öffnungsstellung lösbar verbunden ist. Erfindungsgemäß ist also vorgesehen, daß die Verschlußlasche nicht freibeweglich an der Halteplatte angebunden ist und etwa beim Handhaben, bei der Einsetzung des Staubfilterbeutels in den Staubsauger, stören kann. Vielmehr ist die Verschlußlasche für eine Handhabung fest mit der Halteplatte verbunden. Bevorzugt ist hierbei vorgesehen, daß die Verschlußlasche mit der Halteplatte klebverbunden ist. Beispielsweise über eine punktförmige bzw. kreisförmige Klebestelle. Diese Klebestelle ist nur in einer solchen Größe ausgebildet, daß die Verschlußlasche bei Bedarf willentlich leicht von der Halteplatte abgelöst werden kann, und zwar so, daß eine Zerstörung der Verschlußlasche hierbei praktisch in nicht erheblichem Ausmaße nur auftritt. In weiterer Ausgestaltung ist vorgesehen, daß die Verschlußlasche in ihrem Einsteckbereich grundsätzlich kreisförmig ausgebildet ist. Dies wird auch dadurch erreicht, daß der Einsteckbereich über eine streifenförmige Verbindungslasche an dem Verschlußdeckel angebunden ist. Diese streifenförmige Verbindungslasche kann hierbei mit einer vergleichsweise geringen Breite ausgebildet sein, so daß der Einsteckbereich in einem größeren Ausmaß kreisförmig in Erscheinung tritt. Hierbei ist von Bedeutung, daß der Einsteckbereich mit Entfernung zur Öffnung, bspw. 2,3 cm, erst an der Halteplatte angebunden ist. Die Manipulierbarkeit des Einsteckbereiches ist hierdurch gefördert. Darüber hinaus ist bevorzugt vorgesehen, daß der Einsteckbereich des weiteren über eine streifenförmige Anheftlasche mit der Halteplatte lösbar verbunden ist. Die lösbare Verbindung ist in einer der oben bereits beschriebenen Weise im einzelnen verwirklicht. Bei einer solchen Ausgestaltung ist die Einstecklasche über zwei weitere Laschen, die Verbindungslasche und die Anheftlasche mit dem Verschlußdeckel verbunden, wobei die Anheftlasche jedoch lösbar mit der Halteplatte verbunden ist. Weiter ist bevorzugt, daß die Verbindungslasche und die Anheftlasche in axialer Verlängerung zueinander mit dem Einsteckbereich verbunden sind. Auch wird vorgeschlagen, daß der Einsteckbereich eine Mehrzahl von Einstecklaschen aufweist. Diese Einstecklaschen dienen zum Untergreifen eines Randes der Öffnung, um die Verschlußlasche formschlüssig mit der Halteplatte zu verbinden und so die Öffnung haltbar zu verschließen. Eine Einstecklasche kann bevorzugt kreisstreifenförmig ausgebildet sein. Dies kann dadurch geschaffen werden, daß der Einsteckbereich in seiner kreisförmigen Ausgestaltung zunächst mit einer notwendigen Überdeckung die Öffnung abdeckt und sodann radial nach innen Trennungsschlitze, vom äußeren Rande ausgehend, ausgebildet sind, durch welche die Einstecklaschen geformt sind. Die Trennungsschlitze haben hierbei bevorzugt eine Tiefe, die etwa der Überdeckung zur Öffnung entspricht. Weiter bevorzugt sind insgesamt vier Einstecklaschen ausgebildet. Die Trennungsschlitze sondern sowohl die Einstecklaschen voneinander wie auch zu der Verbindungslasche bzw. der Anheftlasche. Die Verschlußlasche kann wie die Halteplatte auch aus einem verstärkten Papier-Werkstoff, beispielsweise Pappe, bestehen.This object is achieved in the invention specified in claim 1. In this case, the focus is first of all on the locking tab being releasably connected to the holding plate in its open position. According to the invention it is therefore provided that the closure flap is not freely connected to the holding plate and can interfere with handling, for example, when inserting the dust filter bag into the vacuum cleaner. Rather, the locking tab is firmly connected to the holding plate for handling. It is preferably provided here that the closure flap is adhesively bonded to the holding plate. For example, via a punctiform or circular glue point. This glue point is formed only in such a size that the closure flap willfully easily detached from the holding plate when required can be, in such a way that destruction of the closure flap only occurs to a practically insignificant extent. In a further embodiment it is provided that the locking tab is basically circular in its insertion area. This is also achieved in that the insertion area is connected to the sealing cover by means of a strip-shaped connecting tab. This strip-shaped connecting tab can be designed with a comparatively small width, so that the insertion area appears to a greater extent in a circular manner. It is important here that the insertion area is first connected to the holding plate at a distance from the opening, for example 2.3 cm. This promotes manipulation of the insertion area. In addition, it is preferably provided that the insertion area is also releasably connected to the holding plate by means of a strip-shaped attachment tab. The detachable connection is implemented in detail in one of the ways already described above. In such an embodiment, the insertion tab is connected to the closure cover by two additional tabs, the connecting tab and the attachment tab, the attachment tab being detachably connected to the holding plate, however. It is further preferred that the connecting tab and the attaching tab are connected to the insertion area in an axial extension to one another. It is also proposed that the insertion area have a plurality of insertion tabs. These insertion tabs serve to reach under an edge of the opening in order to positively connect the closing tab to the holding plate and thus to close the opening in a durable manner. An insertion tab can preferably be designed in the form of a circular strip. This can be achieved by initially inserting the plug-in area in its circular configuration necessary covering covers the opening and then radially inward separation slots are formed, starting from the outer edge, through which the insertion tabs are formed. The separation slots here preferably have a depth which corresponds approximately to the overlap with the opening. It is further preferred that a total of four insertion tabs are formed. The separation slots separate the insertion tabs from each other as well as to the connection tab or the attachment tab. Like the holding plate, the closure flap can also consist of a reinforced paper material, for example cardboard.

Des weiteren ist die Erfindung anhand der beigefügten Zeichnung, die jedoch lediglich ein Ausführungsbeispiel darstellt, erläutert. Hierbei zeigt:

Dargestellt und beschrieben ist, zunächst mit Bezug zu Figur 1, ein Staubsaugerbeutel 1 mit einer oberen Halteplatte 2. Die obere Halteplatte 2 besitzt eine Öffnung 3, die mit einem nach einem ersten Gebrauch von innen anliegenden Dichtungsverschluß 4 verschlossen ist. Der Dichtungsverschluß 4 wird beim Einsetzen des Staubsaugerbeutels in einen Staubsauger durch einen Rohrstutzen des Staubsaugers nach innen in den Staubsaugerbeutel 1 gedrückt.A vacuum cleaner bag 1 with an upper holding plate 2 is shown and described, initially with reference to FIG. 1. The upper holding plate 2 has an opening 3, which is closed with a sealing closure 4 which bears against the inside after a first use. The sealing closure 4 is pressed into the vacuum cleaner bag 1 when the vacuum cleaner bag is inserted into a vacuum cleaner through a pipe socket of the vacuum cleaner.

Darüber hinaus ist eine Verschlußlasche 5 ausgebildet, mit welcher die Öffnung 3 nach Gebrauch des Staubsaugerbeutels 1, insbesondere bei prallgefülltem Staubsaugerbeutel 1, von außen verschlossen werden kann.In addition, a closure flap 5 is formed, with which the opening 3 can be closed from the outside after use of the vacuum cleaner bag 1, in particular when the vacuum cleaner bag 1 is filled to the brim.

Die Verschlußlasche 5 besteht aus einem im wesentlichen kreisförmigen Einsteckbereich 6 und einer Anheftlasche 7 sowie einer Verbindungslasche 8. Die Anheftlasche 7 ist mit der Halteplatte 2 über eine kreisförmige Klebestelle 9 lösbar verbunden. Die Klebestelle 9 ist an der Anheftlasche 7 ausgebildet bzw. an einem der Anheftlasche 7 zugeordneten Ort der Halteplatte 2. Bevorzugt ist die Klebestelle 9 derart angeordnet, daß noch ein nach außen überstehender Bereich 10 der Anheftlasche 7 verbleibt, mit welcher die Anheftlasche 7 und damit die gesamte Verschlußlasche 5 bei Bedarf von der Halteplatte 2 gelöst werden kann.The closure flap 5 consists of an essentially circular insertion area 6 and a fastening flap 7 as well as a connecting flap 8. The fastening flap 7 is detachably connected to the holding plate 2 via a circular gluing point 9. The gluing point 9 is formed on the fastening tab 7 or at a location of the holding plate 2 assigned to the fastening tab 7. The gluing point 9 is preferably arranged such that an outwardly projecting area 10 of the fastening tab 7 remains, with which the fastening tab 7 and thus the entire locking tab 5 can be detached from the holding plate 2 if necessary.

Die Lage des Klebepunktes 9 ist insbesondere auch aus Figur 2 ersichtlich.The position of the adhesive point 9 can be seen in particular from FIG. 2.

Aus Figur 3 ist ersichtlich, daß der eigentliche Beutel 11 über eine -in Figur 3 übertrieben dargestellte- Klebestelle 12 mit der Halteplatte 2 und die Halteplatte 2 sodann über eine Klebestelle 13 -die gleichfalls übertrieben dargestellt ist- mit der Verschlußlasche 5 verbunden ist. Es versteht sich, daß die Klebestellen 12 und 13 jeweils umlaufend so ausgebildet sind, daß eine vollständige Dichtigkeit gegeben ist.It can be seen from FIG. 3 that the actual bag 11 is connected to the holding plate 2 via a gluing point 12, which is shown exaggerated in FIG. 3, and the holding plate 2 is then connected to the closing flap 5 via a gluing point 13, which is also shown exaggerated. It is understood that the glue points 12th and 13 are circumferentially formed so that complete tightness is given.

In den Figuren 4 und 5 ist die Verschlußlasche 5 in eingestecktem Zustand in die Öffnung 3 dargestellt. Es ist ersichtlich, daß vier Einstecklaschen 14, die an den Einsteckbereich 6 ausgebildet sind, jeweils die Öffnung 3 über eine Tiefe t untergreifen. Hierzu sind die Einstecklaschen 14 kreisstreifenförmig ausgebildet und über Trennungsschlitze 15 sowohl voneinander wie auch zu der Verbindungslasche 8 bzw. der Anheftlasche 7 gesondert. Die Trennungsschlitze 15 sind spitzwinklig, radial nach innen weisend, ausgebildet.In Figures 4 and 5, the locking tab 5 is shown in the inserted state in the opening 3. It can be seen that four insertion tabs 14, which are formed on the insertion area 6, each engage under the opening 3 over a depth t. For this purpose, the insertion tabs 14 are designed in the form of a circular strip and are separated via separation slots 15 both from one another and to the connecting tab 8 or the attachment tab 7. The separation slots 15 are formed at an acute angle, pointing radially inwards.

Aus der Darstellung in Figur 5 ist das Untergreifen der Öffnung 3 ersichtlich. Handhabungsgünstig ist es, daß vier verschiedene Einstecklaschen ausgebildet sind. Selbst bei einer unvollständigen Handhabung, bei der nur ein oder zwei Einstecklaschen die Öffnung 3 untergreifen, ist bereits eine sichere Überdeckung der Öffnung 3 durch die Verschlußlasche 5 gegeben. Durch die kreisförmige Ausbildung des Einsteckbereiches 6 jedoch und die vier Einstecklaschen 14 sowie die vergleichsweise schmalen, an den Einsteckbereich 6 angebundenen Laschen 7 bzw. 8 ist ein sehr vollständiger Verschluß bei Untergreifen aller vier Einstecklaschen 14 gegeben.The reaching under the opening 3 can be seen from the illustration in FIG. It is easy to handle that four different insertion tabs are formed. Even with incomplete handling, in which only one or two insertion tabs reach under the opening 3, the opening 3 is already securely covered by the closure tab 5. Due to the circular design of the insertion area 6, however, and the four insertion tabs 14 and the comparatively narrow tabs 7 and 8, which are connected to the insertion area 6, there is a very complete closure when reaching under all four insertion tabs 14.

Aus Figur 4 ist auch ersichtlich, daß die Verbindungslasche 8 bei a mit Entfernung, beim Ausführungsbeispiel etwa 1,5 cm, zur Öffnung 3 an der Halteplatte 2 angebunden ist. Die Halteplatte 2 setzt sich hierbei aus dem eigentlichen, mit dem Bezugszeichen versehenen Plattenkörper und der Verschlußlasche 5 zusammen, welch letztere jedenfalls im Bereich der Öffnung 3 den eigentlichen Plattenkörper auch verstärkt.It can also be seen from FIG. 4 that the connecting strap 8 is connected to the holding plate 2 at a distance a, at a distance of approximately 1.5 cm in the exemplary embodiment. The holding plate 2 is composed of the actual plate body provided with the reference symbol and the closure flap 5, which latter also reinforces the actual plate body in the region of the opening 3.
