Definitions

  • the invention relates to a floor nozzle for vacuum cleaners with a first functional position for sucking wide floor surfaces and a second functional position for sucking narrow floor surfaces.
  • a floor nozzle with the described functional properties is out DE-C 100 17 705 known.
  • the suction head of the known floor nozzle has one of two broad sides and two narrow sides limited, substantially rectangular base surface and is connected by means of a two-axis joint, which includes a suction channel, to a suction pipe.
  • the joint is designed as a universal joint and has a suction head connection element, which is inserted in a recess formed as a half-shell of the suction head. The sealing of the mutually movable parts of the universal joint is difficult.
  • Out DE-A 102 41 055 is also a floor nozzle for vacuum cleaners known, the suction head is rotated by a rotation of the connected suction tube by 90 °, so that both wide floor surfaces and narrow floor surfaces can be cleaned.
  • a biaxial joint is arranged, which consists of a T-shaped pipe section and a pipe bend connected to the pipe section in a rotatably movable manner.
  • the T-shaped piece of pipe is rotatably mounted between two arranged on the Saugkopfoberseite and open to Saugkopfinneren tube receptacles.
  • the pipe bend has a curvature of about 90 °, so that the free terminal end is in a plane substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the joint when the floor nozzle is used for sucking narrow floor surfaces.
  • the suction head When handling the floor nozzle, the suction head is loaded in the forward movement with a pushing force, which is introduced via a suction pipe connected to the joint.
  • the orientation of the suction tube specifies the force action line.
  • the front area of the suction head is loaded when sucking wide floor areas, which is unfavorable for the movement sequence. In particular, carpet folds and carpet edges can only be run over poorly by such a suction head.
  • a tilting joint for the floor nozzle of a vacuum cleaner which consists of a fixed suction nozzle head on a channel fitting and a pivotally mounted in this movable channel section. In a tilting movement, the sections perform telescoping movements to each other. The hinge axis of the tilting joint is displaced towards the rear region of the suction head, which is advantageous for handling the floor nozzle.
  • the known floor nozzle is only suitable for sucking wide floor surfaces. It is not possible to rotate the floor nozzle 90 ° relative to the suction pipe.
  • JP 2001 157652 A is a floor nozzle for vacuum cleaners with the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a floor nozzle for vacuum cleaners, for sucking both wide floor surfaces and narrow floor surfaces, such.
  • a floor nozzle for vacuum cleaners for sucking both wide floor surfaces and narrow floor surfaces, such.
  • the object of the invention and solution of this problem is a floor nozzle for vacuum cleaners with a first functional position for sucking wide floor surfaces and a second functional position for sucking narrow floor surfaces, with the features according to claim 1.
  • a pushing force is introduced into the suction head, wherein the force line of action of the pushing force is displaced in the suction direction in the rear region of the floor nozzle.
  • the suction head can perform smooth tilting movements, so that carpet wrinkles and carpet edges can be run over well. Consequently, the floor nozzle according to the invention is characterized by good sliding properties on floor surfaces.
  • the device is easy to handle both when vacuuming wide floor surfaces and narrow niches.
  • the pivoting range of the movable channel portion is limited by stops, wherein a stop is assigned to the second functional position appropriate.
  • the hinge axis of the tilting joint is arranged at a distance from the rear in the suction direction broadside in a region between the two broad sides of the suction head.
  • the suction head also has on its rear side in the suction direction broad expediently a recess, which forms a free space for the movement of the pipe section connected to the movable duct section.
  • the hinge axis of the tilting joint is preferably arranged within the indentation in a region near the bottom of the suction head. This results in a particularly favorable introduction of force of the pushing force.
  • the suction head has an upper housing part and an insert connected to the upper housing part and that the channel connecting piece of Kippgelenkes consists of two parts, wherein one part is integrally formed on the upper housing part and the other part of the insert.
  • the suction head is a plastic part.
  • the two-part design of the suction head leads to simplifications of the injection molds.
  • the outer surface of the channel connecting piece is integrally formed on the upper housing part and the insert has a shaped piece, which forms a portion of the adapted to the geometry of the movable channel section inner contour.
  • a sliding sole On the underside of the suction head, a sliding sole can be arranged in a manner known per se, which has a suction mouth extending up to the narrow sides, which is connected in terms of flow through an opening to the channel connecting piece.
  • the basic structure of the floor nozzle shown in the figures includes a suction head 1, which has one of two broad sides 2 and two narrow sides 3 limited, substantially rectangular base and a tilting joint 4, which consists of a formed on the suction head 1 Kanalan gleich Swiss 5 and a pivotable channel section 6 exists.
  • a pipe bend 7 is rotatably connected, which is designed in the embodiment as a 90 ° arc and has a connection end for a direction indicated by a dashed line suction pipe 8.
  • the broad sides 2 of the suction head 1 are aligned in this functional position substantially transversely to the free terminal end of the pipe bend 7 and a suction pipe 8 connected thereto.
  • the movable channel section 6 is swung out, so that the axis of rotation 9 of the rotary connection between the tube bend and the movable channel section is aligned obliquely down to the bottom surface.
  • the force action line of the sliding force introduced with the suction pipe 8 is displaced into the rear region of the floor nozzle.
  • a second functional position ( Fig. 2 )
  • the movable channel section 6 is pivoted so far into the channel connection piece 5, that the axis of rotation 9 of the rotary joint is oriented horizontally.
  • the broad sides 2 of the suction head 1 extend substantially in the longitudinal direction of a suction pipe 8 connected to the connection end of the pipe bend 7 and the floor nozzle can be used for sucking narrow niches.
  • the pivoting range of the movable channel section 6 is limited by stops, wherein in the exemplary embodiment, a stop of the second functional position is assigned.
  • the hinge axis 10 of the tilting joint 4 is arranged at a distance to the rear in the suction direction broadside in an area between the broad sides 2 of the suction head 1 and that the suction head 1 at its rear in the suction direction broadside has a recess 11, which has a free space for the movement of the connected to the movable channel section 6 pipe bend 7 forms.
  • the hinge axis 10 of the tilting joint 4 is arranged within the recess 11 in a region near the bottom of the suction head 1.
  • FIG. 4 shows that the suction head 1 has an upper housing part 12 and an insert 13 connected to the upper housing part and that the channel connecting piece 5 of the tilting joint 4 consists of two parts. One part is formed on the upper housing part 12 and the other part of the insert 13. Of the FIG. 4 If one deduces that the outer surface of the channel connecting piece 5 is integrally formed on the upper housing part 12 and that the insert 13 has a fitting 14 which forms a portion of the adapted to the geometry of the movable channel section 6 inner contour.
