Definitions
- the invention relates to a vacuum cleaner, arranged in its housing On / off switch and potentiometer, which components by means of the outside of the Housing provided actuator are actuated.
- Such a vacuum cleaner is known from DE-U-80 20 858. With this vacuum cleaner there is an actuation button for the on / off switch and a rotary knob on the housing arranged for the adjustment of a potentiometer.
- the invention has for its object a vacuum cleaner of the type described Art in such a way that the expenditure on components can be reduced.
- the On / off switch and the potentiometer is assigned a common actuation button, which is arranged axially and rotatably on the housing of the vacuum cleaner, whereby the axially movable adjustment of the operating button an operation of the on / off switch and by the rotatable adjustment of the operating button an operation of the trained as a potentiometer potentiometer.
- a separate return spring for the actuating button is unnecessary in that the spring tension acting on the operating lever as an axial restoring force for the Actuation button serves.
- the actuating lever itself can act as a resilient lever be designed so that no separate spring element is required.
- Coupling the control button with the rotary potentiometer is easier Way in that an axially projecting adjusting shaft on the actuating button is provided, which is axially movable but non-rotatably coupled to the rotary potentiometer is.
- the rotary potentiometer is secured in its respective position by that the adjusting shaft through a hole in the actuating lever to the below the Actuating lever arranged rotary potentiometer is passed and on the Operating lever on the side facing the operating button concentric with the Bore a raster is formed, which with a on the actuating lever End surface of the actuating button trained counter-locking acts together.
- a rotation limit is achieved in a structurally simple manner in that A shaft of the actuating button has a rib projecting radially outwards and on the housing of the vacuum cleaner a stop projecting into the rotational path of the rib is provided.
- a shaft 2 is integrally formed.
- the operating button 1 With the Shaft 2 is the operating button 1 in a provided on a vacuum cleaner housing 4 tubular recess 3 used.
- a Locking plate 5 attached to the shaft, which is inserted into the vacuum cleaner housing 4 State of the operating button 1 behind one from the side wall of the tubular Recess 3 protruding locking tongue 6 locked.
- the somewhat tapered shaft 2 passes through one in the concerned Wall of the vacuum cleaner housing 4 provided through opening 7.
- the shaft 2 is essentially formed by four shaft ribs 8 arranged in a cross shape.
- a Shaft rib 8a extends further radially compared to the remaining shaft ribs 8 Outside.
- this shaft rib 8a strikes when the operating button 1 is turned a stop cam 9 projecting radially inward into the through opening 7 this stop cam 9, the rotary movement of the operating button 1 is below 360 ° limited.
- a support plate is installed in the vacuum cleaner housing 4, on which a pushbutton 10 trained on / off switch and a rotary potentiometer 11 are arranged.
- the push button 10 and the rotary potentiometer 11 are fitted in a plastic holding part 12, the in turn is clipped onto the support plate in a suitable manner.
- On the plastic holding part 12 is also formed an actuating lever 13 which is pivotable at one end 14 is connected to the body of the plastic holding part 12. The other end 15 of the Actuation lever 13 projects freely over the actuation key 16 of the pushbutton switch 10.
- a bore 17 is provided through which one is in the axial extension of the shaft 2 extending and connected to the shaft 2 adjustment shaft 18 is inserted.
- the adjusting shaft 18 engages through a coupling opening of the rotary potentiometer 11 through.
- a coupling opening is slit-shaped in a known manner or designed as a round opening provided with a flattened side.
- the adjustment shaft 18 has at its free end 19 a shape corresponding to the coupling opening Cross-sectional profile. The free end 19 of the adjusting shaft 18 can thus enter the coupling opening be introduced.
- the adjusting shaft 18 can face each other in the axial direction the coupling opening are moved.
- there is a fixed one in the direction of rotation Coupling so that when turning the operating button 1, the rotary potentiometer 11 is adjusted.
- the actuating lever 13 is molded onto the plastic holding part 12 such that it already when the operating button 1 is plugged into the vacuum cleaner housing 4 something is depressed. As a result, a counterforce is exerted on the operating button 1 exercised, through which the molded on the shaft 2 locking device 5 in contact with the locking tongue 6 is held. The actuating button 1 is thus secured on the vacuum cleaner housing 4. In Direction of rotation receives the operating button 1 by a provided on it and in the tubular recess 3 engaging collar 20 a corresponding guide.
- the actuation button When the vacuum cleaner is started up or shut down, the actuation button is activated 1 depressed each time. The other end 15 of the actuating lever 13 hits the actuation key 16 of the key switch 10 and depresses it. This will Key switch 10 on or off. After releasing the control button 1, it becomes by the spring force of the actuating lever 13 back to its initial position in which Rest plate 5 rests on the locking tongue 6, reset. In the direction of actuation Adjustment path of the operating button 1 by the impact of the locking plate 5 on the bottom wall 24 of the tubular recess 3 limited. This will also make it too high and therefore Harmful impact forces on the operating lever 13 or on the key switch 10 avoided.
- an additional spring can be provided. Such an additional Spring is also used when the operating lever 13 is not as from the outset spring lever is formed.
