Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a method and a device for the filter cleaning of a filter of a vacuum cleaner according to the preamble of claims 1 and 7.
  • Such a filter cleaning is, for example, with the subject of DE 41st 38 223 C1 became known.
  • a movable with a connecting rod Supply air duct used, which optionally one of the two openings of the filter covered and tightly connected to the external air flow.
  • that is Switching element, which the Abtheses Kunststoff to different areas of the Filters deflected, relatively complicated.
  • DE 41 38 223 C1 is a vacuum cleaner with two distinct filters disclosed, wherein the filters depending on the control during operation be cleaned and the two filters are completely independent filters which is connected via a flexible hose mechanical device are connected and depending on the control state of the both filters are supplied with false air from the back of the filter and this in the Countercurrent cleans.
  • the main disadvantage of this invention is that here are two independent filters to clean and that to clean the filter a complex, mechanical Control device is necessary.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object, the subdivision of Filter range of a ring filter in at least two different, to be cleaned Design filter areas so that thereby a much simpler and improved operation is possible.
  • the internal structure of the filter unit is designed so that in the interior the ring filter, a chamber-like separation device is arranged, which is a round circumferential, radial distance from the inner surface of the ring filter forms and which in the height cross-section about an electric machine anchor-shaped profile having two mirror-symmetrically arranged, circular chamber walls are opposite to each other through a central Partition are sealingly connected together.
  • the separating device is such that the Chamber walls touch each other or merge into each other and about at the point at which in the first embodiment the interruption is one air opening is located in the closed wall. These Air opening is round or oval.
  • the distance between the inside the ring filter and the outside of the chamber walls is at least twice so bridged by means of elastic sealing elements that at least form two separate chambers.
  • the core of the filter cleaning is so that you around the ring filter around two defined different chambers, wherein the one chamber of the Suction air flow is flowed through and the filter accordingly in the operation Condition the dust particles filters out, while the other by means of the filter chamber separate second chamber is intended to be blown in countercurrent to clear the filter in this area.
  • the radially outer space surrounding the chamber wall forms a radial outside annular space between the inside of the ring filter and the Outside of this chamber-like separation device, wherein in the area of this Annular space at least two opposing, inflatable Seals are arranged.
  • These sealing elements are used for subdivision of the annular space, even if the distance of the ring filter to internal chamber-like separation device not the same size at each point is different in different places. The compensation for different distances is determined by the variable volume and Form change of the individual sealing elements achieved.
  • the elastic sealing elements by volume change deform in such a way that they divide the filter unit into at least one subarea, which serves for the purification of the polluted air, and in at least one Subdivision, which is cleaned by the supplied false air, divide.
  • the volume change of the approximately bag-shaped sealing elements takes place a lower air pressure in the outer environment of the sealing elements against the air pressure in its inner area. This is achieved by that the pressure difference between the outer and the inner region of Sealing elements by generating a negative pressure in the interior of the Ring filter against the normal air pressure takes place.
  • the negative pressure in the inner region of the ring filter is through the implementation an air flow through it.
  • the sealing elements resemble by their elastic volume change Distance differences between ring filter and chamber walls, which on Reason not centered positioning of the ring filter in the housing arise. she denote the distance between these two units even though if the distance has greater differences. This has the advantage that the Ring filter when inserting no longer needs to be centered exactly. Incidentally, can For filtering a commercial filter can be used, which no Additional elements required.
  • the sealing elements are in the operating state both on the inside of the Ring filter as well as on the outer sides of the chamber-like separator on. With their underside they stand on the bottom surface of the chamber-like Separator in connection.
  • the chamber-like separation device is by means of an approximately centrally located within the annular chamber wall region arranged partition wall for air flow in divided into two subareas. This results in two partial air flows.
  • the air flow to be cleaned by means of the ring filter, and the false air flow, which by means of the same turbine as the suction air flow is generated, but by means of a second, separate air guide system to a Control unit is guided. From this control unit, the false air flow in Dependency of certain parameters in one or the other inner area fed to the chamber-like separator, which is within this Chamber forms an overpressure of one of the two partial air flows in the Represents filter unit.
  • FIG. 1 shows an illustration of the present invention in vertical Sectional view through the filter unit 1 with schematically arranged Control for the air guidance of the false air for the cleaning of the respective Filter sections.
  • Control for the air guidance of the false air for the cleaning of the respective Filter sections.
  • the support plate 5 forms an outer seal over a Container seal 4 with the vacuum cleaner tank 10.
  • This has in itself known manner, a hose connection 11 for the vacuum cleaner hose on, so that so the sucked dirt into the interior 8 of the container 10th is sucked in and directed from outside to inside the ring filter contaminated air is applied.
  • each sealing element consists of a balloon-like elastomeric material which is bag-like is open, so that it is closed circumferentially and only an upper Opening for accessing the atmospheric pressure in the interior of the Has sealing element 3.
  • a chamber-like separator 12 arranged, which essentially in profile an electric machine anchor equivalent.
  • Two mutually mirror-symmetrically arranged, part-annular chamber walls 19,20 are opposite each other and are through a central partition wall 18th connected with each other.
  • the chamber-like separator 12 also has one through bottom surface 21.
  • the housing walls of the chamber-like separator 12 are impermeable to air and between the chamber walls 19,20 becomes a first Air opening 6 and an opposite air opening 14 defined.
  • It is a general switching device 23 is provided with which alternatively air from the outside in the direction of arrow 13 on the outside of the ring filter is passed and - when switching the switching device 23 - the air from Interior of the filter is directed against the inner surface, so that the filter cleaned from the inside to the outside.
  • the switching device 23 is shown only schematically. It can only be seen that it is a switching valve 22, for example, with a pressure-controlled flap, so that either selectively via the inlet 24, the air is directed in the upper half of the ring filter of Figure 2 for the purpose of cleaning and via the outlet 25th the purified from the ring filter air flows out in the lower area in the direction of arrow 15 and is fed again in the direction of arrow the opposite side.
  • the sealing element 3 ' is shown in the non-inflated state, while on the right side of the illustration, the sealing element is shown in the inflated state.
  • the area under the ring filter is used for the separation of dirt particles from the teat stream, while the lower Part of the ring filter is cleaned.
  • the analog apply Conditions reversed i. E. the upper part of the ring filter is cleaned and the upper portion of the ring filter is used for the separation of dirt particles from the teat stream.
  • Sealing elements 3 instead of two opposing sealing elements 3 can also several Sealing elements are arranged so that not only two each other opposite different regions 16,17 defined on the ring filter but more than two such areas.
  • the shape of the sealing element (oval, round, square or the like) is indifferent. It is only important that the sealing element 3 is able to inflate upon application of a pressure difference between the interior and the external environment and sealingly apply both to the chamber wall 19 and 20 and to the inner wall of the ring filter 2.
  • the sealing element 3 applies in this case to some folds of the ring filter 2, so that it can even be provided that the sealing element with its outer contour corresponds approximately to the fold contour of the ring filter to provide an even better sealing contact surface on the ring filter.
  • ring filter 2 does not depend on the nature and design of the ring filter 2; other types of filters may also be used, e.g. not from consist of folded filter paper.
  • porous filter materials It is only essential that just by the inflatable sealing elements at least two areas on Ring filter are defined, which has a range for the deposition of Represent dirt particles from the teat stream, while the other area in return is being cleaned just during this time.
  • the opening 27 may in this case via a channel not shown with the Be connected to the atmosphere.
  • the two sealing elements are interconnected by air conduction and only the one sealing element Opening 27, while the other sealing element completely closed is.
  • the sealing element must, moreover, also sealingly on the support plate 5 and also rest against the ring filter, as shown in Figure 1.
  • the air openings are formed so that they are not as oval Openings between the chamber walls 18 and 19 appear but they are executed as interruptions between the two chamber walls 18 and 19.
  • This means in the plan view of a section in the axis A-B, as shown in FIG. 4 is the chamber-like separator 12 as an anchor-shaped structure about detect.
