Abstract

A rotary nozzle for a high-pressure cleaning apparatus has a housing into which a feed line for a cleaning fluid issues, an outlet provided in the housing for expelling the cleaning fluid, a nozzle body through which the cleaning fluid flows, and a bearing that surrounds the outlet. The nozzle body is disposed in the housing, and is supported at its convex end in the bearing. The bearing is formed directly in an inner wall of the housing as a conically-shaped depression to avoid the need for a separate bearing insert, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process. Additionally, the conical shape of the bearing cooperates with the convex shape of the nozzle body to provide optimal sealing with a reduced contact surface for a long service life. The bearing is disposed concentrically relatively to the outlet. The nozzle body is set by the flow of cleaning fluid through the housing in a revolving movement in which a longitudinal axis of the nozzle body revolves on a generated cone.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Rotordüse für ein Hochdruckreinigungsgerät mit einem Gehäuse, in das eine Zufuhrleitung für Reinigungsflüssigkeit einmündet, mit einem Auslaß für die Reinigungsflüssigkeit, mit einem von der Reinigungsflüssigkeit durchströmten, im Gehäuse angeordneten Düsenkörper, der sich mit einem balligen Ende in einem konisch geformten, pfannenförmigen, den Auslaß des Gehäuses umgebenden Lager abstützt und der durch den Strom der Reinigungsflüssigkeit durch das Gehäuse in eine Umlaufbewegung versetzt wird, bei der die Längsachse des Düsenkörpers auf einem Kegelmantel umläuft.The invention relates to a rotor nozzle for a high-pressure cleaning device with a housing into which a supply line for cleaning liquid, with an outlet for the cleaning liquid, with a flowed through by the cleaning liquid, in Nozzle body arranged with a housing crowned end in a conical, pan-shaped, supports the outlet of the housing surrounding the bearing and by the flow of cleaning fluid the housing is rotated at which is the longitudinal axis of the nozzle body on a cone jacket circulates.

Rotordüsen sind beispielsweise aus der DE 40 13 446 B1 bekannt. Durch den Umlauf des Düsenkörpers auf einem Kegelmantel wird auch der von ihm abgegebene und durch den Auslaß aus dem Gehäuse entlassene Strahl des Reinigungsmittels auf einem Kegelmantel geführt, so daß es möglich ist, mit einer solchen Rotordüse eine größere Fläche mit einem Strahl zu überstreichen, der selbst kompakt bleibt und nur einen sehr kleinen Querschnitt hat. Rotor nozzles are for example from DE 40 13 446 B1 known. By rotating the nozzle body on one The cone jacket is also the one it delivers and through the jet of detergent discharged from the housing guided on a cone jacket so that it is possible with such a rotor nozzle a larger To sweep the surface with a beam that itself remains compact and only a very small cross section Has.

Bei derartigen Rotordüsen wird der Düsenkörper mit großer Kraft in axialer Richtung in die Vertiefung hineingedrückt; um diese Kräfte aufnehmen zu können, ist man bei bekannten Rotordüsen daher bestrebt gewesen, spezielle Lagerflächen in das Gehäuse einzusetzen, die der Beanspruchung durch die Anlage des Rotorkörpers gewachsen sind. Dies führt zu einer relativ aufwendigen Konstruktion, da in das Gehäuse ein spezieller Lagerkörper eingesetzt werden muß, der den Düsenkörper abstützt.With such rotor nozzles, the nozzle body becomes larger Force pressed into the recess in the axial direction; to be able to absorb these forces, one is in known rotor nozzles have therefore endeavored to special Insert storage areas in the housing that the Stress grown by the installation of the rotor body are. This leads to a relatively complex construction, because in the housing a special bearing body must be used, which supports the nozzle body.

Aus der DE 90 04 452 U1 ist eine Rotordüse bekannt, bei welcher die Beanspruchung im Lagerbereich dadurch vermieden werden soll, daß komplizierte Abdichtungsmaßnahmen in der Rotordüse vorgenommen werden, beispielsweise durch Verwendung einer Gummimembran. Dies führt zu einer ganz erheblich komplizierteren Konstruktion, bei der trotzdem die Gefahr von Beschädigungen besteht, wenn nämlich die komplizierten Abdichtungsmaßnahmen nicht in vollem Umfange funktionsfähig sind.A rotor nozzle is known from DE 90 04 452 U1, at which avoids the stress in the storage area should be that complicated sealing measures be made in the rotor nozzle, for example by using a rubber membrane. This leads to a very much more complicated construction, at that is still at risk of damage, if only the complicated sealing measures are not fully functional.

In der DE 36 23 368 C1 (vgl. Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1) ist eine gattungsgemäße Rotordüse beschrieben, bei der ebenfalls ein Düsenkörper mit einem balligen Ende in eine spezielle Lagerschale eintaucht, die in das Gehäuse eingesetzt ist, also auch in diesem Falle ist eine relativ aufwendige Konstruktion notwendig.DE 36 23 368 C1 (cf. preamble of claim 1) is a generic rotor nozzle described in which also a nozzle body with dipped into a special bearing shell at one crowned end, which is inserted in the housing, also in this case is a relatively complex construction necessary.

Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, bei einer gattungsgemäßen Rotordüse den Herstellungsaufwand (für eine optimale Abdichtung) zu verringern. It is an object of the invention in a generic Rotor nozzle the manufacturing effort (for an optimal Sealing).

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einer Rotordüse der eingangs beschriebenen Art erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß das den Düsenkörper abstützende Lager durch eine in die Innenwand des Gehäuses eingearbeitete, konzentrisch zum Auslaß angeordnete Vertiefung gebildet wird.This task is described in the case of a rotor nozzle Art solved according to the invention in that the the bearing supporting the nozzle body through a in the inner wall of the housing, concentric to the Outlet arranged recess is formed.

Es hat sich überraschenderweise herausgestellt, daß eine in dieser Weise konisch ausgebildete Vertiefung in der Innenwand des Gehäuses in Zusammenwirkung mit der balligen Ausbildung des im Lager abgestützten Endes des Düsenkörpers zu einer optimalen Abdichtung führt, die auch beibehalten wird, wenn Schmutzteilchen und Chemikalien in den Dichtungsbereich gelangen. Die linienförmige Abstützung des ballenförmigen Endes mit der entsprechend verringerten Kontaktfläche führt zu einer wesentlich geringeren Verletzungsmöglichkeit dieser Kontaktflächen, und daher können mit einer solchen Konstruktion auch bei verschmutzter Reinigungsflüssigkeit dann hohe Standzeiten erreicht werden, wenn das Lager unmittelbar Teil des Gehäuses ist, also nicht aus einem speziellen Lagerkörper aus hochverschleißfestem Material besteht. Bei einer solchen Konstruktion ist es also weder notwendig, einen speziellen Lagerkörper aus hochwiderstandsfähigem Material zu verwenden, noch besteht die Notwendigkeit, den Lagerbereich gegenüber der zu fördernden Flüssigkeit in irgendeiner Weise zusätzlich abzudichten.It has surprisingly been found that a recess conically formed in this way the inner wall of the housing in cooperation with the crowned formation of the end of the Nozzle body for an optimal seal leads, which is also maintained when Dirt particles and chemicals in the sealing area reach. The linear support of the ball-shaped In the end with the correspondingly reduced contact area leads to a much lower possibility of injury of these contact areas, and therefore can with such a construction even with dirty cleaning fluid then long service life can be achieved if the bearing is directly part of the housing, not from a special bearing body made of highly wear-resistant Material exists. With one So it is neither necessary to construct a special one Bearing body made of highly resistant material to use, there is still a need to use the storage area compared to the liquid to be pumped in to seal in any way.

Günstig ist es, wenn der Öffnungswinkel der Vertiefung zwischen 110° und 150°, insbesondere zwischen 120° und 140° liegt, vorzugsweise bei 130°.It is beneficial if the opening angle of the depression between 110 ° and 150 °, in particular between 120 ° and 140 °, preferably 130 °.

Das ballige Ende des Düsenkörpers kann kugelig geformt sein, wobei es dann günstig ist, wenn der Radius zwischen 3 mm und 7 mm liegt, vorzugsweise bei 5 mm.The spherical end of the nozzle body can be spherical be, it is then advantageous if the radius between 3 mm and 7 mm, preferably 5 mm.

Bei einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, daß das Gehäuse aus Kunststoff besteht, insbesondere aus Polyamid, wobei es vorteilhaft ist, wenn das Polyamid einen Glasfaseranteil enthält, beispielsweise in der Größenordnung von 30%. In a particularly preferred embodiment provided that the housing is made of plastic, in particular made of polyamide, it being advantageous if the polyamide contains a glass fiber component, for example in the order of 30%.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, daß das Gehäuse einen Gehäusefuß, in den die Zufuhrleitung einmündet, und eine mit diesem verbindbare Gehäusehaube aufweist, in die der Auslaß mit der Vertiefung eingearbeitet ist. Es ist dadurch möglich, das Gehäuse in einfacher Weise zu trennen, die Gehäusehaube kann ausgetauscht werden, so daß bei Verschleißerscheinungen im Bereich des Lagers einfach eine neue Gehäusehaube auf den Gehäusefuß aufgesetzt wird. Gehäusefuß und Gehäusehaube können vorzugsweise durch Verschraubung miteinander verbindbar sein.According to a preferred embodiment, that the housing has a housing foot into which the supply line opens out, and a housing hood that can be connected to it into which the outlet with the recess is incorporated. This enables the housing can be separated in a simple manner, the housing hood be replaced so that if there are signs of wear just a new housing cover in the area of the warehouse is placed on the housing base. Housing base and housing cover can preferably be screwed together be connectable.

In an sich bekannter Weise kann vorgesehen sein, daß der Düsenkörper aus einem rohrförmigen Körper mit einer in diesen eingesetzten Düse besteht, die das ballige Ende des Düsenkörpers bildet.In a manner known per se it can be provided that the nozzle body from a tubular body with a in this inserted nozzle, which is the crowned End of the nozzle body forms.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist jedoch vorgesehen, daß der Düsenkörper einen rohrförmigen Körper umfaßt, dessen eines Ende das ballige Ende des Düsenkörpers bildet. In diesem Falle ist also nicht das Einsetzen einer separaten Düse notwendig, sondern der Düsenkörper selbst bildet den Umlaufkörper mit Durchströmungskanal, die Düse und das ballige Ende zur Abstützung in der Vertiefung aus.In a preferred embodiment, however, it is provided that that the nozzle body is a tubular body includes one end of which is the crowned end of the nozzle body forms. In this case, the onset is not a separate nozzle is necessary, but the nozzle body itself forms the circulating body with flow channel, the nozzle and the spherical end for support in the recess.

Auch hier ist es vorteilhaft, wenn der Düsenkörper zumindest im Bereich des balligen Endes aus Kunststoff besteht, insbesondere aus Polyetheretherketon.Again, it is advantageous if the nozzle body at least in the area of the spherical end made of plastic consists, in particular of polyether ether ketone.

Die Materialpaarung glasfaserverstärktes Polyamid/Polyetheretherketon ist dabei besonders verschleißarm, so daß mit einer Paarung derartiger Kunststoffe hohe Standzeiten erreicht werden, obwohl keine speziellen Lagerkörper vorgesehen sind. Insgesamt lassen sich dadurch die Herstellungskosten und der Herstellungsaufwand erheblich reduzieren, denn es genügt, Düsenkörper und Gehäusehauben aus Kunststoff in der üblichen Herstellungsweise herzustellen, diese Teile können dann ohne weitere Veränderungen in der Rotordüse eingesetzt werden.The material pairing glass fiber reinforced polyamide / polyether ether ketone is particularly low-wear, so that high with a pairing of such plastics Downtimes can be achieved, although no special ones Bearing body are provided. Overall, this allows the manufacturing costs and the manufacturing costs reduce significantly, because it is enough nozzle body and plastic hoods in the usual way of production can then manufacture these parts used without further changes in the rotor nozzle become.

Die nachfolgende Beschreibung bevorzugter Ausführungsformen der Erfindung dient im Zusammenhang mit der Zeichnung der näheren Erläuterung. Es zeigen:

The following description of preferred embodiments of the invention serves in conjunction with the drawing for a more detailed explanation. Show it:
Figure 1:
a longitudinal sectional view of a rotor nozzle according to a first preferred embodiment and
Figure 2:
a view similar to Figure 1 according to a second preferred embodiment.

Die in der Zeichnung dargestellte Rotordüse wird an das Ende einer Zufuhrleitung 1 angesetzt, um Reinigungsflüssigkeit, die über die Zufuhrleitung von einem Hochdruckreinigungsgerät herangeführt wird, unter hohem Druck in einem Kompaktstrahl abzugeben, der längs eines Kegelmantels umläuft.The rotor nozzle shown in the drawing is attached to the End of a feed line 1 attached to cleaning liquid, via the supply line from a high pressure cleaning device is introduced under high Deliver pressure in a compact jet that runs along one Cone jacket runs around.

Die Zufuhrleitung 1 mündet in einen Gehäusefuß 2 ein, der im wesentlichen die Form eines Topfes mit einem Außengewinde 3 hat. Die Einmündung der Zufuhrleitung 1 erfolgt zentral, wobei die Zufuhrleitung 1 durch den Boden 4 des topfförmigen Gehäusefußes 2 hindurchtritt und bis etwa zur oberen Kante 5 des topfförmigen Gehäusefußes 2 verläuft. In diesem Bereich ist die Zufuhrleitung 1 stirnseitig verschlossen, jedoch führt eine Öffnung 6 aus der Zufuhrleitung 12 heraus, die so orientiert ist, daß die aus dieser Öffnung 6 austretende Flüssigkeit eine wesentliche Komponente hat, die in einer senkrecht auf der Zufuhrleitung 1 liegenden Ebene liegt und die bezüglich der Längsachse der Zufuhrleitung 1 in Umfangsrichtung verläuft.The feed line 1 opens into a housing foot 2, which is essentially the shape of a pot with an external thread 3 has. The mouth of the supply line 1 takes place centrally, the supply line 1 through the Bottom 4 of the cup-shaped housing foot 2 passes through and up to about the upper edge 5 of the cup-shaped housing foot 2 runs. The supply line is in this area 1 closed on the front, but one leads Opening 6 out of the feed line 12, which is so oriented is that emerging from this opening 6 Liquid has an essential component that is in a plane lying vertically on the feed line 1 lies and with respect to the longitudinal axis of the feed line 1 runs in the circumferential direction.

Auf das Außengewinde 3 des Gehäusefußes 2 ist eine Haube 7 aufgeschraubt, die zusammen mit dem Gehäusefuß 2 ein abgeschlossenes Gehäuse bildet. Diese Haube 7 weist auf der dem Gehäusefuß 2 gegenüberliegenden Seite eine sich konisch erweiternde Auslaßöffnung 8 auf, der in Richtung auf das Innere des Gehäuses eine konische Vertiefung 9 vorgelagert ist, die konzentrisch zur Auslaßöffnung 8 angeordnet ist und einen Öffnungswinkel von etwa 130° aufweist.On the external thread 3 of the housing base 2 is a hood 7 screwed on, which together with the housing base 2 forms a closed housing. This hood 7 points on the side opposite the housing base 2 flared outlet opening 8, which in Towards the inside of the case a conical depression 9 is upstream, which is concentric with the outlet opening 8 is arranged and an opening angle of has about 130 °.

Diese Vertiefung 9 bildet ein pfannenförmiges Lager für das ballige Ende 10 eines im wesentlichen rohrförmigen Düsenkörpers 11, der einen in Längsrichtung durchgehenden Strömungskanal 12 aufweist. Dieser Strömungskanal 12 endet in einer Düsenöffnung 13, die zentral aus dem balligen Ende 10 austritt und mit der Auslaßöffnung 8 ausgerichtet ist.This recess 9 forms a pan-shaped bearing for the crowned end 10 of a substantially tubular one Nozzle body 11 which is continuous in the longitudinal direction Flow channel 12 has. This flow channel 12 ends in a nozzle opening 13 which is central from the crowned end 10 emerges and with the outlet opening 8 is aligned.

Der rohrförmige Düsenkörper 11 trägt an seinem dem balligen Ende 10 gegenüberliegenden Ende außenseitig zwei in Umfangsrichtung verlaufende O-Ringe 14, 15, die sich an der Innenwand 16 der Haube 7 abstützen.The tubular nozzle body 11 carries on its crowned End 10 opposite end outside two circumferential O-rings 14, 15 which are Support on the inner wall 16 of the hood 7.

Im Betrieb tritt durch die Öffnung 6 von der Zufuhrleitung 1 herangeführte Reinigungsflüssigkeit tangential in das Gehäuseinnere ein, so daß die Flüssigkeitsmenge im Inneren des Gehäuses, das durch die Haube 7 und den Gehäusefuß 2 gebildet wird, um die Längsachse des Gehäuses rotiert. Dabei nimmt diese rotierende Flüssigkeit den Düsenkörper 11 mit, der sich unter der Wirkung der Fliehkräfte mittels der O-Ringe 14 und 15 an die Innenwand 16 der Haube 7 anlegt, so daß die Längsachse des Düsenkörpers 11 auf einem Kegel umläuft, dessen Spitze durch den tiefsten Punkt der Vertiefung 9 gebildet wird und dessen Längsachse mit der Längsachse des Gehäuses zusammenfällt. Die Flüssigkeit tritt durch den Strömungskanal 12 des Düsenkörpers 11 hindurch und verläßt die Düsenöffnung 13 in Richtung der Längsachse de Düsenkörpers 11, also ebenfalls auf einem Kegelmantel umlaufend, der sich von der Auslaßöffnung 8 ausgehend nach außen hin öffnet.In operation passes through the opening 6 from the supply line 1 cleaning liquid introduced tangentially into the interior of the housing so that the amount of liquid inside the housing through the hood 7 and the Housing foot 2 is formed around the longitudinal axis of the housing rotates. In doing so this rotating liquid takes with the nozzle body 11, which is under the effect of the centrifugal forces by means of the O-rings 14 and 15 to the Inner wall 16 of the hood 7 creates, so that the longitudinal axis of the nozzle body 11 rotates on a cone, the Tip formed by the deepest point of the recess 9 is and its longitudinal axis with the longitudinal axis of the Housing coincides. The liquid passes through the Flow channel 12 of the nozzle body 11 through and leaves the nozzle opening 13 in the direction of the longitudinal axis de Nozzle body 11, also on a cone jacket all around, starting from the outlet opening 8 opens to the outside.

Der Düsenkörper 11 besteht insgesamt aus Kunststoff, vorzugsweise aus Polyetheretherketon, auch das Gehäuse ist vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff hergestellt, beispielsweise aus Polyamid mit einem Glasfaseranteil von 30 %.The nozzle body 11 is made entirely of plastic, preferably made of polyether ether ketone, also the housing is preferably made of plastic, for example made of polyamide with a glass fiber content of 30%.

Der besonders beanspruchte Lagerbereich zwischen dem balligen Ende 10 und der Vertiefung 9 in der Innenwand der Haube 7 zeigt bei einer solchen Konstruktion erstaunlich geringen Verschleiß, so daß mit einer solchen Rotordüse hohe Standzeiten zu erreichen sind. Die Teile sind jedoch in einfachster Weise herzustellen, da die Haube 7 als einstückiges Formteil ausgebildet ist, und dasselbe gilt im wesentlichen auch für den Düsenkörper 11. Diese Teile können auch in einfachster Weise ausgetauscht werden, indem die Haube 7 vom Gehäusefuß 2 abgeschraubt und durch eine neue ersetzt wird. Bei dieser Gelegenheit kann auch der Düsenkörper 11 in einfacher Weise ausgetauscht werden, falls der Verschleiß ein bestimmtes Maß übersteigen sollte.The particularly stressed storage area between the crowned end 10 and the recess 9 in the inner wall the hood 7 shows surprisingly with such a construction little wear, so with such Long service life can be achieved. The parts are easy to manufacture because the Hood 7 is formed as a one-piece molding, and the same applies essentially to the nozzle body 11. These parts can also be exchanged in the simplest way are unscrewed from the housing base 2 by the hood 7 and is replaced by a new one. At this Opportunity can also be the nozzle body 11 in simpler Be exchanged in case the wear is a certain one Dimension should exceed.

Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel der Figur 2 ist ein ähnlicher Aufbau gewählt, entsprechende Teile tragen daher dieselben Bezugszeichen.In the embodiment of Figure 2 is a similar one Construction chosen, corresponding parts therefore wear the same reference numerals.

Im Unterschied zum Ausführungsbeispiel der Figur 1 ist der Gehäusefuß 2 hier nach oben offen ausgebildet, die Zufuhrleitung 1 mündet direkt in den Innenraum des Gehäusefußes 2. Zur Haube 7 hin ist der Gehäusefuß 2 durch einen Deckel 17 über eine Dichtung 18 abgeschlossen, auch hier wird die Flüssigkeit über eine in dieser Zeichnung nicht dargestellte Öffnung tangential in den von der Haube 7 umschlossenen Bereich eingeleitet.In contrast to the embodiment of Figure 1 is the housing foot 2 here open up, the Supply line 1 opens directly into the interior of the housing foot 2. The housing base 2 is towards the hood 7 closed by a cover 17 via a seal 18, here too the liquid is over one in this Drawing not shown tangentially in the initiated by the hood 7 area.

Der Düsenkörper 11 ist im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel der Figur 2 mehrteilig ausgebildet, in das vordere Ende des im wesentlichen rohrförmigen Düsenkörpers 11 ist nämlich eine spezielle Düse 19 eingesetzt, deren aus dem Düsenkörper 11 hervorstehendes Ende das ballige Ende 10 des Düsenkörpers 11 bildet. Auch dieser Düsenkörper 11 besteht aus Kunststoff, ebenso die eingesetzte Düse 19, die beispielsweise aus Polyetheretherketon hergestellt werden kann. The nozzle body 11 is in the illustrated embodiment of Figure 2 formed in several parts, in the front End of the substantially tubular nozzle body 11 is namely a special nozzle 19 is used, the end protruding from the nozzle body 11 the crowned Forms end 10 of the nozzle body 11. This nozzle body too 11 is made of plastic, as is the one used Nozzle 19, for example made of polyether ether ketone can be manufactured.

Im übrigen ist die Rotordüse gleich aufgebaut und arbeitet auch in gleicher Weise wie die der Figur 1. Selbstverständlich können die Ausgestaltungen der beiden unterschiedlichen Gehäusefüße auch ausgetauscht werden, es ist zum Beispiel ohne weiteres möglich, einen Düsenkörper 11 mit eingesetzter Düse 19 auch im Ausführungsbeispiel der Figur 1 zu verwenden und umgekehrt.Otherwise, the rotor nozzle is constructed and works the same also in the same way as that of FIG. 1. Of course, the configurations of the two different housing feet also exchanged for example, it is easily possible to have one Nozzle body 11 with nozzle 19 also inserted To use the embodiment of Figure 1 and vice versa.
