Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung für Teleskop-Saugrohre von Bodenstaubsaugern, bestehend aus mindestens einem äußeren und einem inneren Saugrohr, zum elektrischen Anschluß von kombinierbaren Zusatzgeräten, wie Elektro-Teppichbürsten, über eine elektrische Leitung und mindestens ein Saugrohr eine Magazinkammer aufweist, die die Leitung längenveränderlich ausziehbar aufnimmt und an beiden Endbereichen der Teleskop-Saugrohre Anschlußelemente den Leitungen zugeordnet sind.The invention relates to a device for telescopic suction pipes of vacuum cleaners, comprising at least one outer and one inner suction pipe, for the electrical connection of combinable accessories, such as electric carpet brushes, via an electrical line and at least one suction pipe has a magazine chamber, which Cable length adjustable extendable receives and at both end portions of the telescopic suction pipes connecting elements are assigned to the lines.

Es ist bekannt, Bodenstaubsauger für den Betrieb mit Vorsatzgeräten auszurüsten und diese über eine elektrische Zuleitung zu versorgen. Die Führung der elektrischen Leitung außen am Schlauch und Rohr ist weder funktional noch ästhetisch befriedigend. Bei üblichen zweiteiligen teleskopierbaren Saugrohren ist es bekannt, entweder eine parallel zum Saugrohr angeordnete rohrförmige Kammer anzuordnen, die ebenfalls teleskopierend ausgebildet ist und in der sich ein verlängerbares Spiralkabel befindet, oder eine flexible Leitung wird in einer flachen Kammer außen am Saugrohr über einen federgespannten Flaschenzugmechanismus geführt und mit der Rohrverlängerung herausgezogen, wie sie aus der DE 195 35 493 A1 zu entnehmen ist.It is known to equip vacuum cleaner for operation with attachments and to supply them via an electrical supply line. The guide of the electrical line outside the hose and pipe is neither functional nor aesthetically satisfying. In conventional two-part telescoping intake manifolds, it is known to arrange either a parallel to the suction pipe arranged tubular chamber which is also telescoping and in which there is an extendable spiral cable, or a flexible conduit is guided in a flat chamber outside the suction tube via a spring-loaded pulley mechanism and pulled out with the pipe extension, as can be seen from DE 195 35 493 A1.

Ferner ist aus DE 196 38 976 A1 eine Vorrichtung für Teleskop-Saugrohre bekannt, die eine elektrische Leitung entsprechend des Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1 umfasst.Furthermore, from DE 196 38 976 A1 a device for telescopic suction pipes is known which comprises an electrical line according to the preamble of claim 1.

Es hat sich gezeigt, dass diese bekannten Lösungen sehr aufwendig sind und relativ viel Platz beanspruchen.It has been found that these known solutions are very expensive and require a relatively large amount of space.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine gattungsgemäße Ausbildung zu verbessern und eine einfache längenveränderliche, anpassungsfähige und elektrische Leitungsverbindung für die Versorgung von Vorsatzgeräten zu schaffen, die eine relativ kleine Dimensionierung ermöglicht und auch die Erfüllung internationaler Standards hinsichtlich der elektrischen Isolation gewährleistet.The object of the invention is to improve a generic design and to provide a simple variable-length, adaptable and electrical line connection for the supply of attachments, which allows a relatively small dimensions and also ensures the fulfillment of international standards in terms of electrical isolation.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß die Leitung durch ein in die Magazinkammer ein- und ausschiebares Aufnahmeelement geführt ist, das mit der Teleskopbewegung des inneren Saugrohres koppelbar und die Leitung in der Magazinkammer durch Schlaufenbildung bevorratet ist, wobei die Leitung im Austrittsbereich des Aufnahmeelementes in der Magazinkammer zur Bildung einer Schlaufe und Rückführung der Leitung fixiert sowie in einer gebildeten Führung zwischen dem Aufnahmeelement und einem parallel zum Aufnahmeelement geführten Schieber zur knickfreien Verschiebung der Leitung angeordnet ist und daß die Leitung eine weitere Schlaufe zur Rückführung der Leitung durch eine Schieberöffnung bildet und die Leitung in einer ebenfalls durch den Schieber mit einer zugeordneten Begrenzung der Magazinkammer gebildeten Führung zur knickfreien Verschiebung angeordnet ist.The solution of this object is achieved according to the invention in that the line is guided by a retractable into the magazine chamber and receiving element coupled with the telescopic movement of the inner suction tube and the line is stored in the magazine chamber by loop formation, wherein the line in the exit region of the receiving element fixed in the magazine chamber to form a loop and return of the line and is arranged in a guide formed between the receiving element and a slide guided parallel to the receiving element for kink-free displacement of the line and that the line forms a further loop for returning the line through a slide opening and the line is arranged in a guide also formed by the slide with an associated boundary of the magazine chamber for kink-free displacement.

Hierdurch wird die Möglichkeit geschaffen, eine sehr einfache Anordnung mit einem vergleichsweise kurzen Leitungsstück zu schaffen. Es wird hierbei ohne besondere Hilfsmittel die Leitung in einer flaschenzugähnlichen Bewegung zwangsgeführt. Die üblichen Flachenzugelemente und deren Kopplung werden dabei vermieden.This creates the opportunity to create a very simple arrangement with a relatively short line piece. It is forcibly guided here without special aids, the line in a flaschenzugähnlichen movement. The usual flat tensile elements and their coupling are avoided.

Eine günstige Ausbildung des Aufnahmeelementes besteht darin, daß das Aufnahmeelement als Hüllrohr ausgebildet ist. Alternativ wird vorgeschlagen, daß das Aufnahmeelement als mindestens einseitig offenes Profil ausgebildet ist.A favorable design of the receiving element is that the receiving element is designed as a cladding tube. Alternatively, it is proposed that the receiving element is designed as at least one side open profile.

Zur Erhöhung der Verschiebesicherheit der Kabel ist vorgesehen, daß die gebildeten Führungen für die Leitung zur knickfreien Verschiebung allseitig Begrenzungen aufweisen.To increase the security against displacement of the cable is provided that the guides formed for the cable for kink-free displacement have boundaries on all sides.

Hierzu wird eine einfache Lösung dadurch erzielt, daß die zusätzlichen Begrenzungen der Führungen durch Boden und Abdeckung der Magazinkammer gebildet sind.For this purpose, a simple solution is achieved in that the additional boundaries of the guides are formed by the bottom and cover of the magazine chamber.

Zur Minimierung der Anordnung wird vorgeschlagen, daß der Schieber als Flachschieber ausgebildet und in seiner Hochachse über zugeordnete Führungen in der Magazinkammer angeordnet ist.To minimize the arrangement is proposed that the slide is designed as a flat slide and is arranged in its vertical axis via associated guides in the magazine chamber.

Ferner wird vorgeschlagen, daß die Leitung als Flachkabel ausgebildet und mit seiner Hochachse etwa parallel zum Flachschieber angeordnet ist.It is also proposed that the line is formed as a flat cable and is arranged with its vertical axis approximately parallel to the flat slide.

Um ein Abknicken bzw. eine Schleifenausbildung beim Einschieben des Hüllrohres zu vermeiden, ist vorgesehen, daß die Fixierung der Leitung im Austrittsbereich des Aufnahmeelementes über ein Halteelement zur Umfassung der Schlaufe gebildet ist.In order to avoid kinking or looping when inserting the cladding tube, it is provided that the fixation of the line is formed in the outlet region of the receiving element via a holding element for embracing the loop.

Eine günstige Ausbildung der Magazinkammer wird dadurch gebildet, daß die Magazinkammer an dem äußeren Saugrohr integriert ist.A favorable design of the magazine chamber is formed by the fact that the magazine chamber is integrated with the outer suction tube.

Alternativ wird vorgeschlagen, daß die Magazinkammer über Halteelemente auf das äußere Saugrohr über Halteelemente als Nachrüstsatz aufsetzbar ist.Alternatively, it is proposed that the magazine chamber can be placed on retaining elements on the outer suction tube via retaining elements as a retrofit kit.

Das dargestellte Teleskop-Saugrohr 1 besteht aus einem äußeren Saugrohr 2 und einem inneren Saugrohr 3, die teleskopierend gegeneinander verstellbar und über eine Raste 4 und zugeordnete Aufnahmen in der ausgezogenen Postion verriegelbar sind. An beiden außenliegenden Enden des Teleskop-Saugrohres 1 sind entsprechende Kupplungsstücke, 5,6 mit zugeordneter elektrischer Kupplungshälfte 7 und Kontaktaufnahme 8 angeordnet.The illustrated telescopic suction tube 1 consists of an outer suction tube 2 and an inner suction tube 3, which are telescopically adjustable against each other and lockable via a detent 4 and associated receptacles in the extended position. At both outer ends of the telescopic suction tube 1 corresponding coupling pieces, 5.6 with associated electrical coupling half 7 and contact 8 are arranged.

In diesem Fall ist am äußeren Saugrohr 2 eine Magazinkammer 9 angeformt, die über einen Deckel 10 abgeschlossen ist. An der Seite der Magazinkammer 9 ist ein Hüllrohr 11 geführt, das am außenliegenden Ende mit dem Kupplungsstück 6 des inneren Saugrohres 3 und der Kontaktaufnahme 8 verbunden und somit in die Magazinkammer 9 ein- und ausschiebbar ist.In this case, a magazine chamber 9 is formed on the outer suction tube 2, which is closed off via a cover 10. On the side of the magazine chamber 9, a cladding tube 11 is guided, which is connected at the outer end with the coupling piece 6 of the inner suction tube 3 and the contact receptacle 8 and thus in the magazine chamber 9 on and pushed out.

Ausgehend von der elektrischen Kupplungshälfte 8 wird ein Flachkabel 12 durch das Hüllrohres 11 geführt, wobei das Flachkabel 12 im Austrittsbereich 13 des Hüllrohres 11 in der Magazinkammer 9 um 180 Grad als festgelegte Schlaufe 14 zurückgeführt wird. Hierbei erfolgt eine Fixierung des Flachkabels 12 am Außenmantel des Hüllrohres 11 im Bereich 15. Selbstverständlich kann auch ein in Fig. 5 dargestelltes Halteelement 2 zur Umfassung der Schlaufe 14 im Austrittsbereich 13 zur Fixierung angeordnet sein.Starting from the electrical coupling half 8, a flat cable 12 is guided through the cladding tube 11, wherein the flat cable 12 is returned in the outlet region 13 of the cladding tube 11 in the magazine chamber 9 by 180 degrees as a fixed loop 14. Here, a fixation of the flat cable 12 on the outer surface of the cladding tube 11 in the region 15. Of course, a holding element 2 shown in Fig. 5 for enclosing the loop 14 in the exit region 13 may be arranged for fixing.

Das umgelenkte Flachkabel 12 wird in der Hochachse angeordnet und in einer gebildeten Führung 16 zwischen dem Hüllrohr 11 und einem parallel zum Hüllrohr 11 in der Magazinkammer 9 geführten Schieber 17 als Flachschieber zur knickfreien Verschiebung des Flachkabels 12 angeordnet. Die Führung 16 ist durch den Boden der Magazinkammer 9 und Deckel 10 derart bemessen, daß das Flachkabel 12 nicht eingeklemmt ist und nicht auswandern kann, um eine Schubkraft über das Flachkabel 12 zu übertragen.The deflected flat cable 12 is arranged in the vertical axis and arranged in a guide 16 formed between the cladding tube 11 and a parallel to the cladding tube 11 in the magazine chamber 9 guided slide 17 as a flat slide for kink-free displacement of the flat cable 12. The guide 16 is dimensioned by the bottom of the magazine chamber 9 and lid 10 such that the flat cable 12 is not clamped and can not migrate to transmit a thrust force over the flat cable 12.

Das in dieser weise angeordnete Flachkabel 12 wird im Endbereich des in der Magazinkammer 9 geführten Flachschiebers 17 über seine Öffnung 18 unter Bildung einer Schlaufe 19 wiederum um 180 Grad umgelenkt und über eine gebildete Führung 20 zwischen dem Flachschieber 17 und einer zugeordneten Begrenzung 21 zur knickfreien Verschiebung angeordnet. Die Öffnung 18 im Flachschieber 17 ist dabei entsprechend bemessen, um eine Verschiebung des aufgenommenen Flachkabels 12 in Form eines Durchziehvorganges zu gewährleisten. Das Flachkabel 12 wird somit bei einem Verschiebevorgang der Saugrohre 2,3 in den gebildeten Führungen 16,20 zwangsgeführt und flaschenzugähnlich verändert, so daß die Kabellänge jeweils zur Verfügung steht.The flat cable 12 arranged in this way is deflected in the end region of the guided in the magazine chamber 9 flat slide 17 through its opening 18 to form a loop 19 again by 180 degrees and an educated guide 20 between the flat slide 17 and an associated boundary 21 for kink-free movement arranged. The opening 18 in the flat slide 17 is dimensioned accordingly to ensure a displacement of the recorded flat cable 12 in the form of a pull-through operation. The flat cable 12 is thus forcibly guided during a sliding operation of the suction pipes 2,3 in the guides 16,20 formed and changed similar to a bottle, so that the cable length is available in each case.

Beim Ausziehen des inneren Saugrohres 3 wird gleichzeitig das Hüllrohr 11 mit herausgezogen und führt das Flachkabel 12 nach, wobei der Flachschieber 17 in Richtung der Austrittsseite wandert und die Überschneidung von Flachschieber 17 und Hüllrohr 11 sich verringert. Hierbei wandert das Flachkabel 12 durch die Öffnung 18 im Flachschieber 17 und gibt somit eine entsprechende Länge des Flachkabels 12 frei. Dabei überträgt das Flachkabel 12 in der Führung 16 Schubkräfte.When you take off the inner suction tube 3, the sheath tube 11 is pulled out at the same time and leads the flat cable 12, the flat slide 17 moves in the direction of the exit side and the overlap of flat slide 17 and sheath tube 11 is reduced. In this case, the flat cable 12 travels through the opening 18 in the flat slide 17 and thus releases a corresponding length of the flat cable 12. In this case, the flat cable 12 transmits 16 thrusts in the guide.

Beim Einschieben des inneren Saugrohres 3 in das äußere Saugrohr 2 läuft der umgekehrte Vorgang ab, wobei über das Hüllrohr 11 über die Führung 16 Zugkräfte auf das Flachkabel 12 ausgeübt werden, die eine Rückführung des Flachkabels 12 in seine Ausgangsposition ermöglichen.When inserting the inner suction pipe 3 in the outer suction pipe 2, the reverse process takes place, being exerted on the sheath tube 11 via the guide 16 tensile forces on the flat cable 12, which allow a return of the flat cable 12 to its original position.
