Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Staubsauger (1) des Upright-Typs mit einem Oberkörper (3) mit Staubsammelbehälter, und mit einer Bodeneinheit (2), welche durch ein Fahrwerk auf der zu reinigenden Fläche bewegbar ist, wobei zwischen Oberkörper (3) und Bodeneinheit (2) ein Kippgelenk angeordnet ist, durch welches der Oberkörper (3) im Gebrauchszustand relativ zur Bodeneinheit (2) um eine horizontale Achse (X) aus einer wenigstens annähernd senkrechten Parkposition in eine schräg gekippte Arbeitsposition verschwenkbar gelagert ist und wobei zwischen Oberkörper (3) und Bodeneinheit (2) ein Drehgelenk angeordnet ist, welches eine Richtungsänderung der fahrenden Bodeneinheit (2) durch Drehen des Oberkörpers (3) ermöglicht. Um die Standsicherheit zu erhöhen, ist eine Drehverriegelungs-Einrichtung vorgesehen, mit welcher der Oberkörper (3) in der Parkposition bezüglich einer Drehung arretierbar ist.

The invention relates to a vacuum cleaner (1) of the upright type with a top body (3) with dust collecting container, and with a bottom unit (2), which is movable by a chassis on the surface to be cleaned, wherein between the upper body (3) and bottom unit ( 2) a tilting joint is arranged, by means of which the upper body (3) in the use state relative to the base unit (2) is pivotably mounted about an horizontal axis (X) from an at least approximately vertical parking position into an obliquely tilted working position and between upper body (3) and ground unit (2) a hinge is arranged, which allows a change in direction of the moving ground unit (2) by rotating the upper body (3). In order to increase the stability, a rotary locking device is provided, with which the upper body (3) can be locked in the parking position with respect to a rotation.
