Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Staubsauger mit einem in einem Gerätegehäuse vorgesehenen Staubbeutelraum, der mit einem Deckel verschließbar ist, und mit einer verschwenkbaren Aufnahme für eine Versteifungsplatte eines in den Staubbeutelraum einsetzbaren Staubbeutels.The invention relates to a vacuum cleaner with a provided in a device housing dust bag space, which is closable with a lid, and with a pivotable receptacle for a stiffening plate of an insertable into the dust bag compartment dust bag.

Ein derartiger Staubsauger ist bereits bekannt und wird von der Anmelderin vertrieben.Such a vacuum cleaner is already known and sold by the applicant.

Aus der US 2 742 105 ist ein Staubsauger bekannt, bei dem ein schwenkbar gelagertes Sperrglied in Form eines Hebelarms vorgesehen ist. Der Staubbeutel ist getrennt von dem Sperrglied gelagert. Bei nicht ordnungsgemäß eingelegtem Staubbeutel ragt der Hebelarm in den Schließweg des den Staubbeutelraum verschließenden Deckels. Das Sperrglied ist so angeordnet, dass es durch eine am Staubbeutel vorgesehene Versteifungsplatte gegen die Kraft einer Feder aus seiner Verriegelungsstellung gedrückt wird.From US 2,742,105 a vacuum cleaner is known in which a pivotally mounted locking member is provided in the form of a lever arm. The dust bag is stored separately from the locking member. If the dust bag is not inserted correctly, the lever arm protrudes into the closing path of the cover closing the dust bag compartment. The locking member is arranged so that it is pressed by a provided on the dust bag stiffening plate against the force of a spring from its locked position.

Aus der DE 40 13 572 C2 ist ein Staubsauger bekannt, bei dem die Versteifungsplatte in eine Aufnahme geschoben wird, die seitliche U-förmige Profilleisten aufweist. Die Versteifungsplatte wird zwischen die sich mit ihren offenen Seiten gegenüberstehenden Profilleisten eingeschoben. Ferner ist ein als Sperrglied oder Filtersperre dienender Schieber vorhanden, der im Verstellweg des Deckels angeordnet ist und somit beim Schließen des Deckels mit dem Deckel in Eingriff steht, wobei er durch eine Feder in Richtung zu dem Deckel in eine Verrriegelungsstellung gedrückt wird. Wenn eine Versteifungsplatte eines Staubbeutels eingesetzt ist, wird das Sperrglied aus seiner Verriegelungsstellung bewegt. Bei fehlender Versteifungsplatte blockiert das Sperrglied das Schließen des Deckels. Das Sperrglied wird über eine als Langloch ausgebildete Längsführung geführt und vollzieht sowohl eine Schwenkbewegung als auch eine Verschiebung in Längsrichtung.From DE 40 13 572 C2, a vacuum cleaner is known in which the stiffening plate is pushed into a receptacle which has lateral U-shaped profile strips. The stiffening plate is inserted between the profile strips facing each other with their open sides. Further, serving as a blocking member or filter lock slider is provided, which is arranged in the adjustment of the lid and thus when closing the lid with the lid is engaged, being pressed by a spring in the direction of the lid in an unlocked position. When a stiffening plate of a dust bag is inserted, the locking member is moved from its locking position. In the absence of stiffening plate, the locking member blocks the closing of the lid. The locking member is guided over a trained as a slot longitudinal guide and performs both a pivoting movement and a shift in the longitudinal direction.

Einer Staubsauger entsprechend dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 ist bereits aus DE 19942483 bekannt.A vacuum cleaner according to the preamble of claim 1 is already known from DE 19942483.

Es ist die Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen Staubsauger der eingangs genannten Art zu verbessern.It is the object of the invention to improve a vacuum cleaner of the type mentioned.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass die Aufnahme eine trapez- oder trichterförmige Fläche zur Auflage einer an der Versteifungsplatte angebrachten Haltelasche und seitliche Führungsleisten aufweist.According to the invention this object is achieved in that the receptacle has a trapezoidal or funnel-shaped surface for supporting a mounted on the stiffening plate retaining tab and lateral guide rails.

Auf diese Weise ist ein einfaches, leichtes, hygienisches und fehlerfreies Einlegen der Versteifungsplatte zusammen mit dem mit dieser verbundenen Staubbeutel möglich. Der Staubbeutel muss nicht in enge Führungsschienen hineingeschoben werden. Durch die trapez- oder trichterförmige Fläche kann die Versteifungsplatte leicht nach unten geschoben werden und gleitet ohne seitliches Verkanten oder Verhaken nach unten in die Sollposition. Dadurch kann auch ein ungenau eingelegter Staubbeutel durch das Schließen des Deckels in die endgültige Gebrauchsposition gebracht werden. Der Einlegevorgang wird somit durch das Verschließen des Deckels unterstützt oder vollendet, wenn der Staubbeutel nur teilweise in seiner Position gelegt wurde und die Versteifungsplatte noch nicht die Position eingenommen hat, in der die Lufteinlassöffnung in der Versteifungsplatte mittig zu dem Lufteinlassstutzen des Deckels liegt.In this way, a simple, easy, hygienic and error-free insertion of the stiffening plate together with the connected with this dust bag is possible. The dust bag does not have to be pushed into narrow guide rails. Through the trapezoidal or funnel-shaped surface, the stiffening plate can be easily pushed down and slides without lateral tilting or hooking down to the desired position. As a result, an inaccurately inserted dust bag can be brought into the final position of use by closing the lid. The loading operation is thus assisted or completed by the closure of the lid when the dust bag is only partially seated in position and the stiffening plate has not yet assumed the position in which the air inlet opening in the stiffening plate is centered to the air inlet port of the lid.

Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen und aus der Beschreibung.Advantageous developments emerge from the subclaims and from the description.

Besonders geeignet ist ein Staubsauger, bei dem die Haltelasche an der Versteifungsplatte mit seitlichen Ausnehmungen versehen ist, in die auf der Aufnahme angebrachte Vorsprünge eingreifen.Particularly suitable is a vacuum cleaner in which the retaining tab is provided on the stiffening plate with lateral recesses into which engage projections mounted on the receptacle.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die Aufnahme gegen die Kraft einer Feder schwenkbar gelagert ist und ein in Richtung des Verstellwegs des Deckels verschwenkbares Sperrglied, das bei Fehlen der Versteifungsplatte in eine erste, ein Verschließen des Deckels verhindernde Position in dem Verstellweg des Deckels hineingeschwenkt ist und das bei Einsatz der Versteifungsplatte in eine zweite, ein Verschließen des Deckels ermöglichende Position in dem Verstellweg hineingeschwenkt ist. Durch diese Maßnahme ist das Sperrglied als einfaches Element ausgebildet, das zusammen mit der Aufnahme verschwenkbar ist. Durch die Verbindung zwischen dem Sperrglied und der Aufnahme für die Versteifungsplatte wird eine gesonderte Aufnahme für das Sperrglied eingespart. Ein Staubbeutel im Sinne dieser Anmeldung ist jegliches bis auf die Lufteinlassöffnung ganz oder nur teilweise verschlossenes Behältnis, das zur Aufnahme von Staub geeignet ist.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention it is provided that the receptacle is pivotally mounted against the force of a spring and a pivotable in the direction of the adjustment of the lid locking member, in the absence of the stiffening plate in a first, a closure of the lid preventing position in the adjustment of the Cover is pivoted into it and that is pivoted into the adjustment when using the stiffening plate in a second, a closure of the lid enabling position. By this measure, the locking member is formed as a simple element which is pivotable together with the receptacle. By the connection between the locking member and the receptacle for the stiffening plate a separate receptacle for the locking member is saved. A dust bag in the sense of this Registration is any container that is completely or partially closed, except for the air inlet opening, which is suitable for absorbing dust.

Als Feder ist besonders eine Blattfeder geeignet. Durch die Feder wird die Aufnahme, wenn der Deckel geöffnet ist, in der Sperrstellung gehalten. Nur wenn eine Versteifungsplatte vorhanden ist, kann die Aufnahme aus dieser Stellung herausgeschwenkt werden.As a spring, a leaf spring is particularly suitable. By the spring, the receptacle, when the lid is open, held in the locked position. Only if a stiffening plate is present, the receptacle can be swung out of this position.

Mit Vorteil wird das Sperrglied durch einen an wenigstens eine der Führungsleisten angebrachten Vorsprung gebildet, der bei Fehlen der Versteifungsplatte in den Verschlussbereich des Deckels hineinragt.Advantageously, the locking member is formed by a projection attached to at least one of the guide strips, which protrudes in the absence of the stiffening plate in the closure region of the lid.

Besonders geeignet ist eine Ausführungsform des Staubsaugers, bei der die Versteifungsplatte durch einen in dem Deckel angebrachten Lufteinlassstutzen während des Verschließens des Deckels in die in die zweite Position verschwenkbar ist.Particularly suitable is an embodiment of the vacuum cleaner in which the stiffening plate is pivotable through an attached in the cover air inlet nozzle during the closing of the lid in the in the second position.

Um das Positionieren der Versteifungsplatte und somit des ganzen Staubbeutels zu unterstützen, ist vorzugsweise auf der Innenseite des Deckels eine Auskerbung zur Aufnahme der oberen Kante der Versteifungsplatte vorgesehen. Durch die Auskerbung wird die Versteifungsplatte aufgrund der Schwerkraft des unten zuklappenden Deckels nach unten geschoben.In order to assist the positioning of the stiffening plate and thus of the entire dust bag, a notch for receiving the upper edge of the stiffening plate is preferably provided on the inside of the lid. Due to the notch, the stiffening plate is pushed downwards due to the gravity of the bottom-folding lid.

Alternativ oder zusätzlich zu dieser Maßnahme lässt sich vorsehen, dass eine Lufteinlassöffnung in der Versteifungsplatte in ihrem unteren Bereich eine parallel zur oberen Kante der Versteifungsplatte verlaufende Kante aufweist, durch die die Versteifungsplatte mittels des Lufteinlassstutzens in dem Deckel nach unten verschiebbar ist.As an alternative or in addition to this measure, it can be provided that an air inlet opening in the stiffening plate has, in its lower region, an edge running parallel to the upper edge of the stiffening plate, by means of which the stiffening plate can be displaced downwards in the lid by means of the air inlet stub.

Ebenso bezieht sich die Erfindung auf einen Staubbeutel zum Einsatz in einem Staubsauger nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 8. Ein derartiger Staubbeutel weist eine Versteifungsplatte auf, die auf ihrer Unterseite eine Lasche hat, die sich nach unten trichter- oder trapezförmig verjüngt.Likewise, the invention relates to a dust bag for use in a vacuum cleaner according to one of claims 1 to 8. Such a dust bag has a stiffening plate, which has on its underside a tab which tapers down funnel or trapezoidal.

Ein Staubsaugern 1 (Fig. 1) weist ein Unterteil 2 und einen Deckel 3 auf. Das Unterteil 2 weist einen Staubsammelraum 4 auf, in den ein Staubbeutel 5 eingebracht ist. Der Staubbeutel 5 weist eine Versteifungsplatte 6 auf, die in eine Aufnahme 7 gesteckt ist. Die Aufnahme 7 weist an ihrem unteren Ende eine Verschwenkwelle 8 auf und ist federnd durch eine in ihrem unteren Bereich angebrachte Blattfeder 9 gegenüber dem Unterteil 2 gelagert, wobei die Blattfeder 9 in eine entsprechende Aufnahme eingesteckt ist.A vacuum cleaner 1 (FIG. 1) has a lower part 2 and a lid 3. The lower part 2 has a dust collecting space 4, in which a dust bag 5 is introduced. The dust bag 5 has a stiffening plate 6, which is inserted into a receptacle 7. The receptacle 7 has at its lower end to a pivot shaft 8 and is resiliently mounted by a mounted in its lower region leaf spring 9 relative to the lower part 2, wherein the leaf spring 9 is inserted into a corresponding receptacle.

Die Aufnahme 7 weist eine sich trichter- oder trapezförmig nach unten verjüngende Fläche 10 (Fig. 2) zur Auflage einer Lasche 11 (Fig. 3) auf, die auf der Unterseite der Versteifungsplatte 6 angeordnet ist, um diese leicht zwischen Führungsleisten 12 und 13 der Aufnahme 7 nach unten schieben zu können. Die Lasche 11 weist somit eine an die Fläche 10 angepasste, ebenfalls trapez- oder trichterförmige Kontur auf. Die Versteifungsplatte 6 hat ferner eine Lufteinlassöffnung 14 und eine Grifföffnung 15. Die Lufteinlassöffnung 14 weist eine (hier nicht dargestellte) Gummidichtung auf, die luftdicht gegenüber einem Einlassstutzen 16 in dem Deckel 3 abschließt.The receptacle 7 has a funnel-shaped or trapezoidal downwardly tapering surface 10 (Fig. 2) for supporting a tab 11 (Fig. 3) which is arranged on the underside of the stiffening plate 6, to easily this between guide rails 12 and 13th the recording 7 to push down.

Die Führungsleisten 11 und 12 haben auf ihrem oberen Ende jeweils nach vorn zu der Öffnung des Staubbeutelraums 4 weisende Vorsprünge 17 und 18, die jeweils ein Sperrglied ausbilden und bei Fehlen der Versteifungsplatte 6 ein vollständiges Verschließen des Staubbeutelraums 4 durch den Deckel 3 verhindern (Fig. 5). In diesem Fall liegen die Vorsprünge 17 und 18 in dem Verschlussbereich des Deckels 3. Dadurch wird vermieden, dass bei nicht eingesetztem Staubbeutel 5 angesaugter Schmutz, insbesondere Flusen und Fäden, in das Motorgehäuse gelangt und dort Schäden verursacht.The guide rails 11 and 12 have on their upper end respectively forward to the opening of the dust bag space 4 facing projections 17 and 18, each forming a locking member and in the absence of the stiffening plate 6 complete closure of the dust bag space 4 by the cover 3 prevent (Fig. 5). In this case, the projections 17 and 18 are in the closure region of the lid 3. This avoids that when not in use dust bag 5 sucked dirt, especially lint and threads, enters the motor housing and causes damage there.

Wenn die Versteifungsplatte 6 in die Aufnahme 7 hineingeschoben ist, wird durch das Zuschwenken des Deckels 3 die Versteifungsplatte 6 durch den in die Lufteinlassöffnung 14 eingreifenden Einlassstutzen 16 und durch ein auf der Unterseite des Deckels 3 angebrachtes Element 19 mit einer Einkerbung 20 so weit nach unten geschoben, bis ein fester Sitz der Versteifungsplatte 6 in der Aufnahme 7 erreicht ist.When the stiffening plate 6 is pushed into the receptacle 7, by the swiveling of the lid 3, the stiffening plate 6 by the engaging into the air inlet opening 14 inlet stub 16 and by a mounted on the underside of the lid 3 element 19 with a notch 20 so far down pushed until a tight fit of the stiffening plate 6 is reached in the receptacle 7.
