Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a vacuum cleaner with a housing, a suction hose connected thereto, which may have a handle portion, and a connectable to the suction hose end piece, which is attachable to the housing of the vacuum cleaner.
  • the present invention also relates to a holder for holding components of a vacuum cleaner.
  • Vacuum cleaners are known in a variety of configurations.
  • An example of a generic vacuum cleaner can be found in the document DE 10 2007 052 028 in which an attachment for a suction hose to a vacuum cleaner is disclosed.
  • a vacuum cleaner disclosed in this document devices with and without dust bags are offered.
  • Uprights in which an upper body is guided over a pivotally mounted rod and in which the upper body, a suction hose and about it also accessories are connected.
  • the suction hose can be made flexible over its full length, or in a portion of the suction hose is a handle portion to which the suction hose is tangible and / or connectable to the end piece.
  • the handle portion is located at one end of the suction hose, the tail at the other end.
  • the tail usually consists of a suction hose and an attached suction nozzle or electric brush, occasionally modifications may occur in which only a suction tube or only a suction nozzle or electric brush are used, or in which the suction tube is integrally connected to the suction nozzle or electric brush.
  • the suction tube can be designed as a one-piece or multi-part plug-in tube or as a telescopic tube with a suitable length.
  • the suction hose and the suction pipe have a certain length, as by a corresponding length of these components, the handling of the vacuum cleaner is facilitated.
  • the length of the end piece including the suction pipe and the suction hose poses a problem when the vacuum cleaner is to be transported or stored.
  • a long suction hose or a long suction pipe is more of a hindrance.
  • the object of the present invention to provide a mounting option for the suction hose, through which the suction hose is better stowed when not in use of the vacuum cleaner.
  • the object is achieved for a generic vacuum cleaner by the tail has a between a use and a non-use position back and forth pivotable holder with which the suction pipe and / or the handle portion is connectable.
  • the object is achieved for a generic holder by having lateral flanks which define a receiving space between them, in which an end of the vacuum cleaner is inserted, the holder between a use and a non-use position is pivoted back and forth and the holder at least one Holding element, with which a suction hose and / or a handle of the suction hose is connectable.
  • the holder makes it possible to attach the suction hose better.
  • the spatial position of the suction hose when not using the vacuum cleaner is no longer determined only by the position of the terminals on the tail and on the housing, but it is possible to attach the suction hose in addition to or instead of one of the given connections to the holder.
  • the suction hose is separated from the end piece, it can be avoided that the suction hose in its position still projects beyond the upper end of the end piece, as is the case in the known solutions of the prior art.
  • This makes it possible to significantly reduce the parking height of the vacuum cleaner when not in use.
  • the holder can also be used when the suction hose or the handle remains connected to the tail.
  • the position of the holder on the end piece can be adapted to the length of the suction hose, that it is possible to wrap the suction hose once or several times around the housing of the vacuum cleaner or a receiving element provided thereon, so that the suction hose over its entire length when not in use stored in a defined space.
  • the external dimensions of the vacuum cleaner to be stored are reduced to an absolutely necessary level, and projecting from the housing parts that interfere with others Can involve parts are avoided.
  • the vacuum cleaner is easier to handle overall during transport and storage.
  • the holder is designed pivotable according to the teachings of the invention, this can always, if the suction hose and / or the handle portion is not attached to the holder, are pivoted, so for example when using the vacuum cleaner or when for the storage of the vacuum cleaner the attachment of the suction hose and / or the handle portion to the bracket is not needed. In the non-use position of the holder, this is hardly visible optically, the design impression of the vacuum cleaner is thus hardly influenced by the holder according to the invention.
  • a holder according to the invention is inexpensive to produce and assemble. Also, the holder can be designed so that it can be retrofitted at any time.
  • the pivot axis of the holder extends transversely to the longitudinal axis of the end piece.
  • the holder can rest directly in the non-use position on the tail, while the holder protrudes in the position of use of the tail. If the bracket is not needed, it will not interfere with the use of the vacuum cleaner, while it is easily accessible and usable in the position of use.
  • the holder has at least one connectable to the suction hose and / or the handle portion holding member which rests in the non-use position on the tail and protrudes laterally in the position of use of the tail. Due to the lateral distance of the retaining element from the tail this is more accessible, and the suction hose and / or the handle portion can be easily connected to the support member.
  • the holder is designed as a one-piece molded part, in particular made of plastic.
  • the holder is inexpensive to produce and assemble. Since in this embodiment of the holder is dispensed with a complex adjusting mechanism, the holder is easy to use, insensitive to incorrect operation, durable and resilient.
  • Plastic as a material is arbitrarily malleable, and it can also be chosen more complex shapes for the component, since plastics can be processed with a high dimensional accuracy.
  • the holder has lateral flanks which delimit between them a receiving space into which the end piece can be inserted, and the lateral flanks are connected to one another via at least one web.
  • This can closely match the outer shape of the tail in the growing area.
  • the lateral flanks and the bridge connecting them together grip the tail. If the side flanks engage around the end piece by an angle of more than 180 °, the holder is held firmly on the tail.
  • the holder can only be detached from the tail again if the holder is so far spread apart that the lateral edges can slide over the outer circumference of the tail, or the holder must be deported in the axial direction of the tail.
  • the Umschlingungshack the lateral edges and the Aufsp Sinus which depends on the selected shape and strength of the material used, should be coordinated so that the holder is on the one hand sufficiently firmly fixed to the tail, but sufficiently easy between a use and a non-use position can be pivoted back and forth and can also be released from the tail if necessary.
  • the receiving space on a measure of the inner diameter which is slightly smaller than the measure of the outer diameter of the tail in the mounting region of the holder, so that there is a jamming seat of the holder on the tail. Due to the clamping seat, the holder is held in the mounting area and can not move undesirably up or down.
  • the clamping seat thus facilitates handling. Even if the suction hose and / or a handle portion to be connected to the holder or to be released from this again, the holder with the clamping seat is easier to handle, because then they can not easily move unintentionally.
  • the holder has on its inner surface at least one latching lug, by which the holder is held fixed in a pivoting position.
  • locking lug can be prevented that the holder can move unintentionally from the use in the non-use position and vice versa.
  • the connection or the release of the suction hose and / or the handle portion is facilitated when the holder is kept fixed in a pivoting position.
  • the receiving space is located in a central portion of the holder and at the opposite end of the holder, a holding element for connection to the handle portion is present.
  • this has two end portions, each for itself to attach the suction hose and / or the Handle section are usable.
  • the suction hose can be attached twice with only one bracket.
  • the holding element for connection to the suction hose is designed so that it engages over the suction hose in the position of use of the holder from above and the suction hose is held in the space between the cross-part of the holding member and the outer surface of the tail. Since the suction hose is pulled downwards with its own weight, a clamping effect arises, through which the suction hose rests on the outer surface of the end piece and is well fixed in position there.
  • the holding element is designed for connection to the handle as a receiving fork, in which the handle is inserted. Since the handle is normally configured less flexible than a suction hose, this can be better fixed in position in a receiving fork. Since a connector is easy to produce, the handle can be easily connected to the support member and also be separated from this again.
  • the holder has one or more of the features according to the embodiments of the invention described above.
  • a canister vacuum cleaner 1 is shown as an embodiment in an overall view.
  • a suction hose 3 is connected, which has a handle portion 4 at its end.
  • the tail of the vacuum cleaner 1 in the embodiment consists of a floor nozzle 5, which is guided during operation of the cylinder vacuum cleaner 1 via a floor surface to be cleaned, and the suction tube 6, which is connectable to the suction hose 3 and the handle portion 4.
  • the suction tube 6 is formed as a telescopic tube, whose length is adjustable by the user to an individual level.
  • the suction pipe 6 also consist of a solid plug pipe or a multi-part plug-in tube.
  • the suction tube 6 is supported in the embodiment via a bracket 7 on the housing 2, so that the cylinder vacuum cleaner 1 together with the suction pipe 6 and the attached floor nozzle 5 is transportable and stowed on a footprint.
  • a holder 8 In the exemplary embodiment is located on the suction pipe 6, a holder 8, the in FIG. 1 shown in the position of use.
  • the holder 8 is pivoted about the pivot axis 9 around in a position of use, projecting laterally from the suction tube 6 in the holding elements 10 and 20.
  • the suction hose 3 In the above holding elements 10 and 20, the suction hose 3 is inserted on one side and on the other side of the separate from the suction tube 6 grip portion 4.

  • the grip portion 4 is fixed to the bracket 8 so as to face in an upward direction.
  • the space above the housing 2 of the vacuum cleaner 1 is used to store at least a portion of the suction hose 3 and, if present, the handle portion 4 when the vacuum cleaner 1 is not in use.
  • the storage height of the vacuum cleaner 1 with the attached suction tube 6 is limited to the housing 2 superior height of the suction tube 6, the suction hose 3 and - if present - the handle portion 4 can at least substantially below the upper end of the suction pipe. 6 be positioned on the holder 8 when not in use the canister vacuum cleaner 1.
  • the suction hose 3 By fixing the suction hose 3 in a central region of its entire length to the holder 8 and the end of the suction hose 3 and the handle portion 4 also on the holder 8, the suction hose 3 can no longer hang loose down to the ground.
  • the suction hose 3 is also tightly wrapped around the housing 2, so that other parts that are stored for example in a cleaning cabinet, not so easy to get involved with the suction hose 3.
  • FIG. 2 is a holder 8 shown from a view obliquely from below.
  • the right holding element 20 can be seen well, which serves in the exemplary embodiment to hold a portion of a suction hose 3.
  • the holding element 20 shown in the exemplary embodiment is formed by lateral flanks 11, which are connected to one another via a web 12.
  • flanks 11 is in each case an approximately semi-circular recess 13 whose inner contour corresponds at least approximately to the cross-sectional shape of the suction hose 3.
  • the portion to be fastened of a suction hose 3 can be inserted from below into the two mutually spaced recesses 13, wherein the recesses 13 are designed according to a preferred embodiment of the invention so that a slightly jammed seat of the suction hose 3 results in the recesses 13.
  • the locking lugs 14 On the flanks 11 are also in the embodiment locking lugs 14, through which a particularly narrow distance between the opposite edges 11 is defined. If the holder 8 is to be pivoted about the pivot axis 9, the locking lugs 14 must slide over the outer diameter of the suction tube 6 away before a new defined pivot position can be taken with the holder 8. In order to enable the pivoting of the holder 8 from a use in a non-use position and back again at all, the locking lugs 14 must be designed so that the holder 8 is not easily transferred from one to the other pivot position, however, a pivoting remains possible , For this purpose, it is necessary to adapt the dimensions of the suction tube 6, the holder 8 and the locking lugs 14 and their shape design in a suitable manner to each other.
  • the holder 8 has a receiving space 15, through which the suction tube 6 can be passed.
