Definitions
- the invention relates to a floor care appliance, in particular domestic vacuum cleaner, with a base body which has at least one space for at least one removable, mobile or detachable functional element, such as a dust removal unit, filter device and / or accessory; with at least one housing part which at least partially closes off the at least one space in the base body, the housing part being movably arranged on the base body; an opening means, which releases the at least one housing part from a closed position; and at least one force-generating element, which moves the housing part from a closed position via an opening in an open position.
- a floor care appliance in particular domestic vacuum cleaner
- a base body which has at least one space for at least one removable, mobile or detachable functional element, such as a dust removal unit, filter device and / or accessory
- at least one housing part which at least partially closes off the at least one space in the base body, the housing part being movably arranged on the base body
- an opening means which releases the at least one housing part from a closed position
- the cover can fall unimpeded into the opening means and hit the base body. This has on the one hand in addition to the possibility of injury further to the detriment that loud falling and closing noises occur.
- the object of the invention is to refine a floor care appliance of the type described in more detail above in such a way that, in particular, the disadvantages of the mentioned opening and closing operations are eliminated.
- a cost-effective device is to be provided, largely avoided in the injury and incorrect operation, and preferably additionally noise is reduced.
- the floor care appliance according to the invention is based on generic floor care appliances in that the force-generating element is in operative connection with at least one damping element.
- Such an arrangement of the damping element has the advantage that accelerations as well as delays of the movable housing part are largely uniform and smooth.
- the damping element is dimensioned such that the force-generating element moves the movable housing part securely into the end position.
- At least one damping element exerts on the housing part a resistance force counteracting the force-generating element.
- This embodiment of the damping element has the advantage that the speed changes of the housing part takes place continuously at least over parts or sections, thereby avoiding sudden movements.
- At least one damping element counteracts the force-generating element, at least in one end region of the opening path of the housing part.
- At least one damping element counteracts the force-generating element over the entire opening path of the housing part.
- Such an arrangement also has the advantage that the moving housing part largely slides over the entire opening area at a uniform speed.
- At least one damping element exerts a resistance force counteracting the force-generating element at least along a part or section of the opening path from the closed position to the open position on the housing part such that the resistance force increases towards the open position.
- At least one damping element exerts a resistance force counteracting the force-generating element at least along a part or portion of the opening path from the closed position to the open position on the housing part, such that the resistance force varies so that the damping element initially becomes stronger, then normal and then again a stronger, or another cyclical course of damping exercises.
- Such an arrangement has the advantage of producing different speed profiles of the lid, such as slow opening to reduce the suction between the lid and the dust bag, a quick opening movement in the middle of the movement for a short opening and a slow one Approaching the end position to reduce noise.
- At least one damping element ensures a uniform speed course along a part or section of the opening path of the closed position into the open position.
- Advantageously jerky movements and thus unnecessary loads on the housing part are avoided and achieved a smooth movement pattern.
- at least one damping element and at least one force-generating element form a common component.
- At least one transmission is provided between a damping element and the housing part.
- a simple conversion of forces or torques with an adaptation to the given space conditions is possible in an advantageous manner.
- a standard component of a damping element can be used for different large housing parts.
- the transmission is a gear transmission.
- the damping element can be covered under a housing part and is protected from environmental influences, such. For example dust.
- damping element is linearly or rotationally movable.
- a rotating damping element is advantageously integrated directly into or on the rotary joint.
- damping elements are also known as silicone dampers or rotational brakes known and available on the market with different properties, such as different power consumption, constant braking force and a smooth, smooth movement.
- designs with limited or unlimited rotation angles are available, as well as fixed or adjustable braking torque.
- damping elements are offered with a free return, ie in a rotational movement without any braking force.
- the damping elements are characterized by a compact design, which allow installation in different operating conditions.
- a linear damping element is of Advantage, if an arrangement takes place on the side of the housing part. The advantages of the rotating damping elements also apply to the linear versions.
- At least one damping element has an adjustment for changing the resistance force over the opening path.
- the resistance is adjustable, such as with or without suction hose. It is also of distribution, that over the life of the damping element, a different resistance force is adjustable.
- the at least one damping element is an air, oil and / or silicone damper.
- This advantageously allows the use of commercially available low-cost standard components.
- standard components are already available on the market with force-generating elements and thus combine the functions of a damping element, as well as a force-generating element.
- the housing part is a closure element such as a lid, a flap, a blind or a pivoting part.
- the damper acts in both directions of movement.
- the opening movement and the manual closing movement is advantageously damped.
- the present invention allows a simple design and inexpensive means a high-quality appearance of the movement processes and avoids advantageous unnecessary noise in an opening or closing operation. Furthermore, the end position of moving parts is reached safely.

- FIG. 2 shows the damping element 1 according to FIG. 1 on an opened housing part 10 of a floor care appliance 20 in a sectional view.
- the open housing part 10 is formed, for example, as a lid 11, but may also be another component such as an accessory cover (not shown).
- On the housing part 10 and the lid 11 engages a force-generating element 15, which is supported on the base body 4. Further is on the main body 10 and cover 1 1 via a bearing pin 12, a drive gear
- the rotating damping element 1 is gem. Fig. 1 equipped with a driven gear 2 and connected via the gear transmission 14 with the drive gear 2 of the lid 11. The opening or closing movement of the lid 11 is thus transmitted simultaneously to the damping element 1.
- the damping element 1 is concealed, so that it is largely protected from environmental influences and is not visible to the user. Further design possibilities of the gear transmission
- FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment of a linear damping element 1 in a perspective view, wherein the hinged housing part 10 is in a closed position 21.
- the linear damping element 1 is a gas pressure spring 22, which integrates two functions in one component, both the damping element 1 and the force-generating element 15.
- Gas pressure springs 22 are advantageously characterized in that they can generate the same or different forces via an opening path 36 , As a result, the opening process can take place at different speeds.
- the gas spring 22 is rotatably mounted on one side with the base body 4 of the floor care device 20; on the opposite side of the gas spring 22, it is rotatably connected to the hinged housing part 10.
- FIG. 4 shows the linear damping element 1 according to FIG. 3 on an open housing part 10 in a perspective view.
