Saugschlauch für StaubsaugerSuction hose for vacuum cleaner
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Saugschlauch für Staubsauger, bestehend aus einem in der Länge variablen rohrförmigen Innenteil, in dessen Schlauchwand eine Zugfeder integriert ist, welche das Innenteil selbsttätig aus einem verlängerten Zustand in einen verkürzten Zustand zurückstellt, und aus einem ebenfalls rohrförmigen Hüllteil, welches das Innenteil in seinem verkürzten Zustand vollständig aufnimmt, und in welchem das Innenteil im verkürzten Zustand durch eine Arretiervorrichtung fixierbar ist. Die Erfindung betrifft außerdem einen Staubsauger mit einem Saugschlauch, mit einer Saugdüse und ggfs. mit einem Saugrohr zur Anordnung zwischen der Saugdüse und dem Saugschlauch.The invention relates to a suction hose for vacuum cleaners, consisting of a variable length tubular inner part, in the hose wall, a tension spring is integrated, which automatically resets the inner part from an extended state to a shortened state, and from a likewise tubular Hüllteil which the inner part completely accommodates in its shortened state, and in which the inner part in the shortened state can be fixed by a locking device. The invention also relates to a vacuum cleaner with a suction hose, with a suction nozzle and, if necessary. With a suction pipe for arrangement between the suction nozzle and the suction hose.
Die Verwendung von Saugschläuchen mit einer dünnen Schlauchwand, in die eine Zugfeder integriert ist und die sich deshalb von einem verkürzten Zustand in einen verlängerten Zustand ziehen lassen, ist im Allgemeinen bei Bodenstaubsaugern des Upright-Typs bekannt. Dort werden solche Saugschläuche als zusätzliche Saugeinrichtung angeboten, um höher liegende Gegenstände reinigen zu können. Die Saugschläuche werden auch als Flexschläuche bezeichnet.The use of suction hoses with a thin tube wall, in which a tension spring is integrated, and which therefore can be pulled from a shortened state to an extended state, is generally known in upright Upright type vacuum cleaners. There, such suction hoses are offered as additional suction to clean higher-lying items can. The suction hoses are also referred to as flexible hoses.
In der GB 2 310 369 A ist eine Ausführungsform eines Staubsaugers gezeigt, bei dem zwischen dem Handgriff eines Saugrohrs und dem End-Fitting ein Saugschlauch angeordnet ist, welcher aus einer Kombination eines Flexschlauchs mit einem herkömmlichen Saugschlauch, dessen Länge nur geringfügig veränderbar ist, besteht. Der Flexschlauch wird in seiner Parkposition im vollständig zusammengezogenen Zustand im Handgriff aufgenommen, dabei liegt der untere Bereich des Flexschlauchs frei. Bei dem aus der GB 2 310 369 beschriebenen Staubsauger soll ein Flexschlauch verwendet werden, der sich im ausgezogenen Zustand auf das sechsfache verlängert. Solche hochflexiblen Schläuche besitzen eine sehr dünne Schlauchwand, welche durch scharfe Ecken leicht beschädigt werden kann. Der frei liegende Teil des Flexschlauchs ist dann auch in der Parkposition gefährdet, wenn der Benutzer das Saugrohr fallen lässt. Bei Verwendung eines Flexschlauchs mit größerer Wandstärke, der dann nur noch um das fünffache verlängerbar ist, führt ein ausreichend langer Schlauch im verlängerten Zustand (ca. 1 ,50 m bis 2 m) zu einem Schlauch, der in der Parkposition 30 cm bis 40 cm lang ist. Ein Handgriff, der einen solchen Schlauch aufnehmen könnte, würde sehr klobig wirken und kaum manövrierfähig sein.In GB 2 310 369 A an embodiment of a vacuum cleaner is shown in which between the handle of a suction tube and the end fitting, a suction hose is arranged, which consists of a combination of a flexible hose with a conventional suction hose whose length is only slightly changed , The flexible tube is received in its parked position in the fully contracted state in the handle, while the lower portion of the flexible tube is exposed. In the vacuum cleaner described in GB 2 310 369 a flexible hose is to be used, which extends in the extended state to six times. Such highly flexible hoses have a very thin tube wall, which can be easily damaged by sharp corners. The exposed part of the flex hose is then compromised even in the park position when the user drops the suction pipe. When using a flex hose with greater wall thickness, which can then only be extended five times, a sufficiently long hose in the extended state (about 1, 50 m to 2 m) leads to a hose that in the parking position 30 cm to 40 cm is long. A handle that could pick up such a hose would be very clunky and hardly manoeuvrable.
Aus der DE 198 43 973 A1 und aus der DE 197 38 329 A1 sind Schlauchanordnungen bekannt, welche integrierte Druckfedern verwenden und deswegen selbsttätig aus der Parkposition in einen verlängerten Zustand übergehen. Hier sind komplizierte Ventilanordnungen notwendig, die den Schlauch aus dem Gebrauchszustand in die Parkposition zurückholen, der Gebrauch des Saugschlauchs in der Parkposition ist nicht möglich. Außerdem sind diese Staubsauger derart konzipiert, dass der gesamte Saugschlauch als Flexschlauch ausgebildet ist und deshalb vollständig im Hüllschlauch verschwindet. Deshalb sind sehr lange, unhandliche Hüllschläuche 5 oder stark dehnbare Schläuche mit sehr dünnen Wandstärken und entsprechend großer Beschädigungs-Anfälligkeit notwendig.From DE 198 43 973 A1 and DE 197 38 329 A1 hose assemblies are known which use integrated compression springs and therefore automatically go from the parking position to an extended state. Here complex valve arrangements are necessary to return the hose from the condition of use to the parking position, the use of the suction hose in the parking position is not possible. In addition, these vacuum cleaners are designed so that the entire suction hose is designed as a flexible hose and therefore disappears completely in the buffer tube. Therefore, very long, bulky Hüllschläuche 5 or highly stretchable hoses with very thin walls and correspondingly large damage susceptibility necessary.
Der Erfindung stellt sich somit das Problem, einen Saugschlauch zu offenbaren, welcher auf einfache Weise als Adapterstück zur Ergänzung eines Staubsaugers mit einem herkömmlichen, nur geringfügig längenveränderbaren Schlauch geeignet ist. Erfindungsgemäß wird dieses iö Problem durch einen Saugschlauch mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.The invention thus presents the problem of disclosing a suction hose, which is suitable in a simple manner as an adapter to supplement a vacuum cleaner with a conventional, only slightly variable-length hose. According to the invention, this problem is solved by a suction hose having the features of patent claim 1.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen des erfindungsgemäßen Saugschlauchs ergeben sich aus den nachfolgenden Unteransprüchen.Advantageous embodiments and further developments of the suction hose according to the invention will become apparent from the following subclaims.
Der Erfindung stellt sich außerdem das Problem, einen Staubsauger der eingangs genannten Art auf einfache Art mit einem in der Länge variierbaren Saugschlauch auszustatten. i5 Erfindungsgemäß wird dieses Problem durch einen Saugschlauch mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 14 gelöst.The invention also raises the problem of equipping a vacuum cleaner of the type mentioned in a simple way with a variable in length suction hose. i 5 According to the invention this problem is solved by a suction hose with the features of patent claim 14.
Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Ausbildung des Saugschlauchs wird ein Aufbau erreicht, welcher eine einfache Fertigung und auch eine einfache Handhabung ermöglicht. Durch die Verwendung eines Rohrstücks als Arretiervorrichtung können diesem in einfacher Weise die 0 nachfolgend beschriebenen Funktionen zugeordnet werden.With the formation of the suction hose according to the invention, a structure is achieved which enables simple production and also easy handling. By using a piece of pipe as a locking device this can be assigned to the 0 functions described below in a simple manner.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist am Rohrstück ein Teil einer weiteren Rastvorrichtung angeordnet, durch welche es mit einem Griffstück eines Saugrohrs oder mit einer Saugdüse verbindbar ist. Hierdurch kann der Saugschlauch als Zwischenstück zwischen einem herkömmlichen Saugschlauch und das Griffstück eingesetzt werden und so nur bedarfsweise 5 verwendet werden.In an advantageous embodiment, a part of a further latching device is arranged on the pipe section, by which it is connectable to a handle of a suction pipe or with a suction nozzle. In this way, the suction hose can be used as an intermediate piece between a conventional suction hose and the handle and are used only as needed 5.
Es ist insbesondere vorteilhaft, wenn beide Rastvorrichtungen derart ausgebildet sind, dass sie eine freie Drehung des Rohrstücks zulassen. Aufgrund der spiralförmigen Ausbildung der Zugfeder neigt das Innenteil dazu, sich beim Herausziehen aus dem Hüllteil zu verdrehen. Durch die freie Drehung des Rohrstücks wird gewährleistet, dass die Rotation des Innenteils 0 abgefangen wird und nicht zu einer Schlaufenbildung führt. Dabei ist es zweckmäßig, wenn die frei drehbare Rastvorrichtung aus mindestens einer federnd gelagerten Rastnase und einer an der Innenseite des Gegenstücks angeordneten umlaufenden Nut besteht.It is particularly advantageous if both locking devices are designed such that they allow a free rotation of the pipe section. Due to the helical design of the tension spring, the inner part tends to twist when pulling out of the Hüllteil. The free rotation of the pipe section ensures that the rotation of the inner part 0 is intercepted and does not lead to a loop formation. It is expedient if the freely rotatable locking device consists of at least one spring-mounted locking lug and arranged on the inside of the counterpart circumferential groove.
Die Rastnasen zur Verbindung des Hüllteils mit dem Rohrstück sollten am Hüllteil und die Rastnasen zur Verbindung des Rohrstücks mit dem Griffstück oder der Saugdüse sollten am Rohrstück angeordnet sein. Hierdurch ist für die Benutzer eindeutig erkennbar, welche Rastnase zur Arretierung bzw. zum Lösen des Hüllteils und welche zur Befestigung des Saugschlauchs vorgesehen ist.The detents for connecting the Hüllteils with the pipe section should on Hüllteil and the detents for connecting the pipe section with the handle or the suction nozzle should am Pipe piece be arranged. As a result, it is clearly recognizable to the user, which locking lug is provided for locking or for releasing the Hüllteils and which for fastening the suction hose.
Eine einfache Fertigung wird dadurch erreicht, dass die Befestigung des Innenteils innerhalb des Hüllteils bzw. des Rohrstücks über auf die Enden des Innenteils gesteckte Endbuchsen erfolgt, deren Außenradius größer als der kleinste Innenradius des Rohrstücks bzw. des Hüllteils ist. Zur Montage muss dann nur das Innenteil durch das Hüllteil und das Rohrstück geführt und anschließend an jedem Ende eine Endbuchse befestigt werden. Hierzu können die Endbuchsen mit einem Außengewinde zur Aufnahme einiger Gänge der Spiralfeder ausgestattet sein. Zur Herstellung einer sicheren Verbindung können Innenteil und Endbuchse zusätzlich miteinander verklebt oder verschweißt sein.A simple production is achieved in that the attachment of the inner part within the Hüllteils or the pipe section is made via plugged onto the ends of the inner part end bushes whose outer radius is greater than the smallest inner radius of the pipe section or the Hüllteils. For assembly then only the inner part must be guided by the Hüllteil and the pipe section and then attached to each end of an end bushing. For this purpose, the end bushes can be equipped with an external thread for receiving some gears of the coil spring. To produce a secure connection inner part and end bushing can be additionally glued or welded together.
Es ist außerdem zweckmäßig, wenn die Befestigung des Innenteils im Rohrstück frei drehbar ausgebildet ist.It is also expedient if the attachment of the inner part is freely rotatable in the pipe section.
Um Beschädigungen des Hüllteils zu vermeiden und eine ausreichende Manövrierfähigkeit zu gewährleisten, sollte das Hüllteil flexibel ausgebildet sein. Dabei beträgt die Länge des Innenteils vorteilhafterweise weniger als 50 cm. Es ist zweckmäßig, wenn die Länge des Innenteils im maximal verlängerten Zustand etwa das drei- bis fünffache des Innenteils im verkürzten Zustand beträgt. Hierdurch ergibt sich eine ausreichende Länge des Saugschlauchs bei einer Wandungsstärke, welche auch stärkere Beanspruchungen ohne Beschädigung verträgt.To avoid damage to the Hüllteils and to ensure sufficient maneuverability, the Hüllteil should be flexible. The length of the inner part is advantageously less than 50 cm. It is useful if the length of the inner part in the maximum extended state is about three to five times the inner part in the shortened state. This results in a sufficient length of the suction hose at a wall thickness, which also withstands heavier loads without damage.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in den Zeichnungen rein schematisch dargestellt und wird nachfolgend näher beschrieben. Es zeigtAn embodiment of the invention is shown purely schematically in the drawings and will be described in more detail below. It shows
Figur 1 einen Querschnitt durch einen erfindungsgemäß ausgebildeten Saugschlauch;Figure 1 shows a cross section through an inventively designed suction hose;
Figur 2 den Saugschlauch nach Figur 1 in perspektivischer Ansicht; Figur 3 den Saugschlauch im Einbauzustand mit weiteren Teilen eines Staubsaugers.FIG. 2 shows the suction hose according to FIG. 1 in a perspective view; Figure 3 shows the suction hose in the installed state with other parts of a vacuum cleaner.
Der in den Figuren 1 und 2 als Einzelheit dargestellte Saugschlauch 1 besitzt ein flexibles Innenteil 2, welches in der Figur 2 gestrichelt dargestellt ist. Dieses Innenteil 2 besteht aus einem hochelastischen Kunststoffschlauch, z. B. dünnwandigem PVC, in dessen Schlauchwand 4 eine Spiralfeder 3, in der Figur 2 durch die Punkte symbolisiert, integriert ist. Die Spiralfeder 3 steht derart unter Spannung, dass sie bestrebt ist, sich selbsttätig zusammenzuziehen. Hierdurch stellt sich das in die Länge gezogene Innenteil 2 ebenfalls selbsttätig in eine verkürzte Position zurück, wobei die Schlauchwand 4 im Bereich zwischen den Spiralfedergängen aufgefaltet wird (nicht dargestellt). Die maximal erreichbare Länge des Innenteils 2 entspricht der Länge der Schlauchwand 4 im ungefalteten Zustand inklusive eines möglichen Dehnungsanteils. In der verkürzten Position beträgt die Länge des Innenteils 2 weniger als 50 cm, vorzugsweise ca. 30 cm. Die Schlauchwandlänge und ihre Elastizität ist derart ausgelegt, dass eine Verlängerung auf das drei- bis fünffache möglich ist. Zur Montage des Saugschlauchs 1 wird das Innenteil 2 durch ein Hüllteil 5 und durch ein Rohrstück 6 5 geführt.The illustrated in Figures 1 and 2 as a detail suction hose 1 has a flexible inner part 2, which is shown in dashed lines in Figure 2. This inner part 2 consists of a highly elastic plastic tube, z. B. thin-walled PVC, in the hose wall 4, a coil spring 3, symbolized by the dots in Figure 2, is integrated. The coil spring 3 is under tension so that it strives to contract automatically. As a result, the elongated inner part 2 also automatically returns to a shortened position, wherein the tube wall 4 is unfolded in the area between the spiral spring courses (not shown). The maximum achievable length of the inner part 2 corresponds to the length of the hose wall 4 in the unfolded state including one possible amount of expansion. In the shortened position, the length of the inner part 2 is less than 50 cm, preferably about 30 cm. The hose wall length and its elasticity is designed so that an extension of three to five times is possible. For mounting the suction hose 1, the inner part 2 is guided by a Hüllteil 5 and 6 5 through a pipe section.
Das Hüllteil 5 besteht aus einem flexiblen Mittelteil 7 und zwei rohrförmigen Endstücken 8 und 9. Das in der Figur 2 rechts dargestellte Endstück 9 besitzt an dem zum Mittelteil 7 gerichteten Ende 10 eine Verjüngung 10a des Innendurchmessers. Das in der Figur 2 links dargestellte Endstück 8 ist auf beiden Seiten u-förmig eingeschnitten, so dass zwei in radialer Richtung des lo Hüllteils 5 bewegbare Federlaschen 11 gebildet werden. An diese Laschen 11 sind jeweils eine Handhabe 12 und ein als Rastnase 13 fungierender Vorsprung angeformt.The enveloping part 5 consists of a flexible middle part 7 and two tubular end pieces 8 and 9. The end piece 9 shown on the right in FIG. 2 has a taper 10a of the inner diameter at the end 10 directed towards the middle part 7. The tail 8 shown on the left in Figure 2 is cut U-shaped on both sides, so that two in the radial direction of the lo envelope part 5 movable spring tabs 11 are formed. At these tabs 11 each have a handle 12 and a locking lug 13 acting projection are formed.
Das Rohrstück 6 beinhaltet einen ersten Bereich 14 mit einem größerem Durchmesser, der zur Aufnahme des Hüllteil-Endes mit dessen Rastnasen 13 dient. Dabei greifen die Rastnasen in eine umlaufende Nut 15 und bilden so zusammen mit der Nut 15 eine Rastvorrichtung, welche i5 auch im eingerasteten Zustand eine freie Drehung des Rohrstücks 6 zulässt. Ein zweiter Bereich 16 des Rohrstücks besitzt einen gegenüber dem ersten Bereich verringerten Durchmesser. In diesem Bereich sind gegenüberliegend zwei weitere Federlaschen 17 angeordnet, die einen ähnlichen Aufbau wie die Federlaschen 11 des Hüllteils 5 besitzen und demzufolge ebenfalls als Teile einer Rastvorrichtung wirken. Dabei greifen deren Rastnasen 18The pipe section 6 includes a first portion 14 having a larger diameter, which serves to receive the Hüllteil-end with the locking lugs 13. In this case, the locking lugs engage in a circumferential groove 15 and thus form together with the groove 15 a locking device, which i 5 allows a free rotation of the pipe section 6 in the locked state. A second region 16 of the pipe section has a reduced diameter compared to the first region. In this area, two other spring tabs 17 are arranged opposite one another, which have a similar structure as the spring tabs 11 of the Hüllteils 5 and therefore also act as parts of a locking device. In this case, the locking lugs 18 grab
20 in eine umlaufende Nut (nicht dargestellt) in der Innenwand eines Handgriffs 19 (s. Figur 3), welcher wiederum mit einem Saugrohr (nicht dargestellt) verbunden ist. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann die Rastvorrichtung auch das Saugrohr selbst und die normalerweise lösbar am Saugrohr befestigte Saugdüse (nicht dargestellt) verbinden.20 in a circumferential groove (not shown) in the inner wall of a handle 19 (see Figure 3), which in turn with a suction tube (not shown) is connected. Alternatively or additionally, the locking device and the suction tube itself and the suction nozzle normally not releasably attached to the suction nozzle (not shown) connect.
Zur Montage wird das Innenteil 2 auf einfache Weise nach dem Verrasten von Hüllteil 5 und 25 Rohrstück 6 so weit durch diese beiden Elemente 5 und 6 geführt, dass ein Ende des Innenteils 2 aus dem in der Figur 2 rechts dargestellten Endstück 9 des Hüllteils ragt. An diesem Ende wird eine Endbuchse 20 aufgeschraubt. Die Endbuchse 20 ist hierzu mit einem Außengewinde 21 ausgestattet, welches einige Gänge der in die Schlauchwand 4 des Innenteils 2 integrierten Zugfeder 3 aufnimmt. Neben dem so hergestellten Form- und Reibschluss kann eine 0 zusätzliche Sicherung durch Verkleben oder Verschweißen von Innenteil 2 und Endbuchse 20 erfolgen. Nun wird das andere Ende des Innenteils 2 aus dem in der Figur 2 linken Ende des Rohrstücks 6 herausgezogen und mit einer Endbuchse 22 versehen, die auf die gleiche Weise befestigt wird. Beide Endbuchsen 20 und 22 besitzen jeweils einen inneren 23 bzw. 25 und einen äußeren Kragen 24 bzw. 26, wobei der innere Kragen 23 bzw. 25 einen geringeren 5 Durchmesser als der äußere Kragen 24 bzw. 26 besitzt. Hierdurch kann der innere Kragen 23 der rechten Endbuchse 20 in die Verjüngung 10a des Endstücks 9 gleiten, der äußere Kragen 24 stützt sich an der Verjüngung 10a ab und verhindert das Einziehen des Innenteils 2 in das Hüllteil 5. Die linke Endbuchse 22 stützt sich mit dem inneren Kragen 25 auf dem Rand des Rohrstücks 6 ab und ist deshalb gegenüber dem Rohrstück 6 frei drehbar. Bei dieser Buchse 22 ist im Bereich des äußeren Kragens 26 eine umlaufende, axial gerichtete Nut 27 angeordnet, in welche eine in den Zeichnungen nicht dargestellte Dichtung eingelegt wird.For assembly, the inner part 2 is guided in a simple manner after locking Hüllteil 5 and 2 5 piece of pipe 6 so far through these two elements 5 and 6, that one end of the inner part 2 protrudes from the end piece 9 of the Hüllteils shown on the right in Figure 2 , At this end an end sleeve 20 is screwed. The end sleeve 20 is for this purpose equipped with an external thread 21, which receives some gears of the integrated into the tube wall 4 of the inner part 2 tension spring 3. In addition to the shape and frictional engagement thus produced, an additional securing by gluing or welding of inner part 2 and end bushing 20 can take place. Now the other end of the inner part 2 is pulled out of the left in Figure 2 end of the pipe section 6 and provided with an end sleeve 22 which is fixed in the same manner. Both end bushings 20 and 22 each have an inner 23 or 25 and an outer collar 24 or 26, wherein the inner collar 23 and 25 has a smaller diameter than the outer 5 collar 24 and 26 respectively. In this way, the inner collar 23 of the right end bush 20 in the taper 10 a of the tail 9 to slide, the outer collar 24 is supported on the taper 10 a and prevents the retraction of the inner part 2 in the Hüllteil 5. The left end sleeve 22 is supported with the inner collar 25 on the edge of the pipe section 6 and is therefore freely rotatable relative to the pipe section 6. In this bush 22, a circumferential, axially directed groove 27 is arranged in the region of the outer collar 26, in which a seal, not shown in the drawings is inserted.
Die Länge des Hüllteils 5 inklusive verrastetem Rohrstück 6 ist so bemessen, dass sie die Länge des Innenteils 2 im zusammengezogenen, d. h. kürzest möglichen Zustand wenigstens geringfügig übersteigt. Hierdurch ist das Innenteil 2 immer leicht gespannt, wodurch sowohl das zum Arretieren notwendige Zusammenführen von Hüllteil 5 und Rohrstück 6 als auch das Einführen des Rohrstücks 5 in den Handgriff 19 bei arretiertem Innenteil 2 enorm erleichtert wird.The length of the Hüllteils 5 including locked tube piece 6 is sized so that they the length of the inner part 2 in the contracted, d. H. at least slightly exceeds the shortest possible state. As a result, the inner part 2 is always slightly stretched, whereby both the necessary for locking merging Hüllteil 5 and pipe section 6 and the insertion of the pipe section 5 in the handle 19 in the locked inner part 2 is greatly facilitated.
Figur 3 zeigt den Saugschlauch in seiner vorteilhaften Einbauposition. Dabei wird er als Zusatzteil zwischen dem Handgriff 19 eines Saugrohrs (nicht dargestellt) und dem serienmäßig mitgelieferten, in der Länge nur geringfügig veränderbaren Saugschlauch 28 eines Staubsaugers (nicht dargestellt) eingerastet und dient so als Schlauchverlängerung, welche bedarfsweise durch Lösen der Arretierung und Herausziehen des Innenteils 2 aus dem Hüllteil 5 eingesetzt werden kann. FIG. 3 shows the suction hose in its advantageous installation position. He is an additional part between the handle 19 of a suction tube (not shown) and the standard supplied, in length only slightly variable suction hose 28 of a vacuum cleaner (not shown) engaged and serves as a hose extension, which, if necessary, by loosening the locking and pulling out of Inner part 2 can be used from the Hüllteil 5.
